Naruto: Sasuke loves to visit forums

Uchiha Sasuke was stunned when he heard this, and then he laughed from the bottom of his heart.

"I think I said this in the afternoon, right?

"You have your own things to do."

Uchiha Sasuke smiled and said lightly.

"But if it really comes to the point of bloodshed, I..."

Nara Shikamaru hesitated for a moment, and finally said it.

He looked directly into Uchiha Sasuke's eyes and said seriously:

“Perhaps, it is a bit presumptuous to say this, but...

"I treat you as a friend."

As early as the journey to the Land of Water, Nara Shikamaru carried out missions with Uchiha Sasuke, participated in the coup d'état in the Hidden Mist Village, and forged a deep fighting friendship.

However, several events that happened afterwards made Shikamaru fall into deep guilt and made the relationship between the two become delicate.

Afterwards, Uchiha Sasuke shined in the Sand Village.

In addition, the damn "secret letter of marriage" from Sunagakure made Shikamaru Nara's friendship with Sasuke extremely awkward and complicated.

However, at present, he has already completed his wedding with Temari.

During the conversation with his wife, Shikamaru also learned more about Uchiha Sasuke's specific performance in the battle of the Sand Village.

Now, everything has been settled.

Looking back, Uchiha Sasuke was very calm with himself from beginning to end.

Whether it is guilt or jealousy, it is just one's own internal consumption and imagination.

Now, Nara Shikamaru, who is already very smart, has finally sorted out this friendship.

Facing the objective reality that Uchiha Sasuke is about to be involved in a crisis.

As a friend, Shikamaru had to speak up and state his position.

(“Sure, kid.

("This can be considered as a sworn brotherhood.")

After seeing this scene in his mind, Jiraiya couldn't help but say to Sasuke with relief.

"What are you talking about?"

On this side, after hearing Shikamaru's sincere confession, Uchiha Sasuke just smiled faintly.

He patted Shikamaru's shoulder gently and said:

"We've always been friends."

After a pause, Uchiha Sasuke slowly put away his smile and said seriously again:

“However, I still hope to keep the conflict between myself and Shimura Danzo.

"If the family is involved, it could very well turn into a civil war within Konoha if we're not careful.

"This is a price that both you and the Hidden Leaf Ninja Village cannot afford under the current situation."

("Boy, you're absolutely right.")

In Uchiha Sasuke's sea of ​​consciousness, Jiraiya nodded with satisfaction, and sighed:

(“Very good. Very good.

("With the friendship and support of the Nara clan, I believe that under your leadership, Konoha will reach a new level.

("As expected, you are the son of prophecy!")

"But."

Here, Nara Shikamaru wanted to say something.

But soon, he was interrupted again by Uchiha Sasuke's words.

“It’s true that we are friends.

"But at the same time, you are still the head of the Nara clan."

This short reminder was like a bucket of cold water that completely woke Nara Shikamaru up.

I saw him standing there in a daze, thinking constantly in his mind.

The words I just said were indeed impulsive.

But to some extent, it also contains rational considerations.

As the patriarch of the clan, Nara Shikamaru knew this very well.

Now, it is really the last moment to place bets.

Therefore, he was talking about the "Nara clan" instead of just himself.

Although, his ninjutsu skills are not too weak.

But in the battle for the Hokage level, Shikamaru is still very self-aware of what kind of power is meaningful.

What Shikamaru heard in the Sand Village these days has given him a better understanding of Sasuke's strength.

Besides, regarding the death of Hokage-sama.

Nara Shikamaru looked down at the puppet in his hand, his thoughts constantly fluctuating.

"I"

Shikamaru was about to speak when Uchiha Sasuke said calmly:

"I'm a little tired."

The fatigue in his voice didn't sound fake at all.

The intention to see the guest off was already very obvious.

Nara Shikamaru looked at Uchiha Sasuke with a complicated expression, then sighed, turned and left.

(“No, no, no, no!”)

In his mind, Jiraiya's panicked voice sounded again.

("Uchiha, Sasuke!!")

However, in response to his master's shouting, Uchiha Sasuke simply closed his eyes silently.

At this moment, Danzo Shimura has begun to spread rumors about himself in the village.

According to Jiraiya's previous arrangements, his taking office will be formally discussed starting tomorrow.

This means that there is less and less space left for both sides.

The struggle and battle for the position of Hokage could begin at any time.

It depends on how long Danzo Shimura can keep his composure.

"You should keep this doll for yourself."

Just as Sasuke was deep in thought, the voice of Nara Shikamaru rang in his ears again.

Uchiha Sasuke was startled and looked up.

But he found that Nara Shikamaru had turned back again.

He had a firm expression on his face, and resolutely took out the puppet doll from his arms and said:

“Since it’s so important, I think it’d be better for you to keep it yourself.

“There are no ifs or whatsoever, you must come back alive.

“I know exactly who Shimura Danzo is.

“Under his leadership, Konoha has only two paths.

"Death quickly, or after running wildly, once again heading for destruction."

"Shikamaru, you."

Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but feel excited, and he looked at the other party in surprise.

Don't understand what happened.

("What's going on? Can you communicate with him?")

Uchiha Sasuke asked, calling out Jiraiya in his mind.

(“Don’t ask me. I don’t know.”)

On the other side, Jiraiya, who had been in despair, suddenly smiled.

He smiled and replied:

("This Nara family kid really has something.")

"Also, let me make my position clear to you again."

Nara Shikamaru strode towards Uchiha Sasuke while saying:

“If you really died at Danzo’s hands.

“I will also use my own methods to retrieve your body as soon as possible.

"You don't have to worry about the commission of this doll."

As he spoke, Nara Shikamaru had already walked in front of Uchiha Sasuke.

He stuffed the dark red puppet doll heavily into Uchiha Sasuke's arms and said:

"The new leaves will glow with vitality in your hands.

"My father, myself, and the entire Sand Village are all looking forward to the birth of a new world.

"For this, you must survive, understand?"

Uchiha Sasuke stood there in a daze.

He understood that Nara Shikamaru still accepted his "entrustment" -

In a more decisive way.

If we say that Shikamaru's previous statement could be seen as a speculative behavior of "lip service".

But at the moment, the promise to "recover the body" implies that even if he dies, the Nara clan will still be enemies of Shimura Danzo.

In these turbulent times, Uchiha Sasuke naturally knew the value of this promise.

I saw him slowly taking the puppet doll.

On the other side, Nara Shikamaru simply patted Sasuke on the shoulder.

Soon, he turned around and left again.

A quiet silence once again fell upon the house.

Jiraiya, who had returned, unexpectedly did not say a word.

Uchiha Sasuke held the puppet doll, and after a while, he said quietly in his mind:

("Master Toad, I'm sorry.")

("cough.

("Hey! Say that.")

In his mind, Jiraiya smiled in a nonchalant manner.

Jiraiya understood all the reasons behind Uchiha Sasuke's behavior just now.

In my mind, I couldn't help but think of the day when I confirmed the fake death plan.

In fact, that day, Jiraiya also did something without telling Uchiha Sasuke, something that he would never agree to.

-

October 7th, the sixty-fifth year of Konoha.

"You know what, Temari looks really pretty dressed as a bride!"

Here, Uzumaki Naruto, with a happy face, had just attended the wedding of Nara Shikamaru and Temari.

At this time, he was happily returning to the Hokage's residence with Uchiha Sasuke.

"Uh-huh."

On the side, Uchiha Sasuke nodded silently.

"Hey, you say, will Sakura-chan be that beautiful at my wedding?

"Oh, of course I will!"

On this side, Uzumaki Naruto pushed open the door, asked and answered himself questions, and strode to the sofa and sat down.

As the scene appeared in his mind, Naruto put on a silly look and smiled foolishly at Uchiha Sasuke.

"hehe."

On the other side, Sasuke was speechless and didn't understand why Naruto liked Sakura so much.

"What? Are you trying to be cool again?

"Are you worried?"

On the opposite side, Uzumaki Naruto noticed that Uchiha Sasuke was a little absent-minded, so he couldn't help but ask.

Before Sasuke could answer, Jiraiya's bold voice sounded from behind the two of them:

"Of course!

"You know, your senior brother almost became the son-in-law of the Sand Village.

"Today, Shikamaru can become the groom, thanks to your senior brother's help!"

Jiraiya joked loudly.

"Lewd Immortal? You're back too?!"

Uzumaki Naruto looked back and greeted with a big laugh:

"There are so many people from Sunagakure. I thought you were going to a meeting again."

Beside Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke also turned his head to look over and saw that Jiraiya was already home.

His expression suddenly changed slightly, and he was no longer so absent-minded, but became alert again.

"No.

"Today, there are more important things to do than a meeting with Sunagakure."

Jiraiya smiled and came up to touch Naruto's head.

Then he glanced at Uchiha Sasuke beside him, turned around and walked towards the study.

"It's so nagging."

Uzumaki Naruto tidied his messy hair, muttered, and sat back on the sofa.

After a moment, Naruto once again asked Sasuke:

"I say, what does it mean to be a son-in-law?"

"what?"

Uchiha Sasuke was stunned when he heard this.

He looked in the direction of the study nonchalantly and answered randomly:

“It means good friends.”

"Hey, so aren't you already a good friend of Sunagakure?

"Come to think of it, we should both be the perfect sons-in-law of Sunagakure.

“Of course, and now Shikamaru too.

"The three of us are all Sunagakure's sons-in-law!"

Uzumaki Naruto snapped his fingers and spoke loudly with joy.

"that.

"By the way, haven't you already entered the semi-finals of the Chunin Exam?

"It seems Kakashi has something to tell you. I think we're running out of time."

On this side, Uchiha Sasuke made up an excuse to send Uzumaki Naruto away.

"what?"

Naruto was stunned when he heard this, then he smiled and said:

"Yes.

“This year’s Chunin Exam is too easy, and my current goal is already far ahead.

"Just wait and see, before the end of the year, I will become a jonin too!"

"That's right.

"But it seems like we're running out of time."

Uchiha Sasuke urged calmly.

"Hey, Kakashi-sensei is always late anyway."

On this side, Uzumaki Naruto answered casually.

His butt was still sitting heavily on the sofa, with no intention of leaving at all.

After a pause, Naruto called out again in confusion:

"Eh? That's not right.

"We have been together all day, how come I didn't know that Kakashi-sensei had looked for you?

"Then why didn't he just tell me?"

"Uh"

How come this kid suddenly became smart?

Uchiha Sasuke was speechless for a moment. In a hurry, he could not help but say:

"Come to think of it, I just saw Sakura go over first, followed by Sai.

"Is that guy pursuing Sakura?"

"Huh? Really?!"

really.

Upon hearing this, Naruto immediately forgot everything that happened before.

He was seen packing his things in a hurry, saying:

"Don't mention it.

“I’m pretty sure Sakura hates that guy right now.

“But you do have a point.

"Sai is indeed a very suspicious guy, he always seems to be trying to please us.

"Forget it, I won't tell you anymore!

"It's too late! See you tonight!"

Uzumaki Naruto was seen talking loudly while running out quickly.

On this side, Uchiha Sasuke had a smile on his face as he stared quietly at Uzumaki Naruto's back.

However, as Naruto disappeared from his sight, Sasuke's eyes turned cold again.

"It's time."

Konoha, the Hokage's residence, study.

After seeing Uchiha Sasuke coming in, Jiraiya immediately spoke in a deep voice.

On the side, the cunning monkey Ju was summoned again.

The six eyes met, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became serious.

“The matter is now completely completed.

"Previously, the plan to lure Shimura Danzo into revealing his weakness.

"Let's finalize it today."

Jiraiya glanced at the two people in front of him and said in a deep voice.
