As it was getting dark, Naruto and his crew finally returned to the Sand Village.

Under the enthusiastic guidance of the Sand Village reception staff, they arrived at the booked hotel and prepared to take a rest.

"Sasuke, do you want to go for a walk together?" Sakura's voice broke the silence in the room.

Sasuke was slightly stunned, and said hesitantly: "Uh... I..."

Sakura seemed to have anticipated his reaction as she gave him a sly smile and clapped her fists lightly.

Sasuke immediately recalled that after returning to Konoha Village, he had witnessed Sakura's astonishing fist power. Once she got angry, only Susanoo could withstand her.

Therefore, for his own safety, Sasuke had no choice but to agree to Sakura's request.

"I'm going to hand over my work to the Sand Village, so you guys can just walk around." After saying that, Shikamaru walked towards the Kazekage's office with a pile of documents.

In a blink of an eye, Naruto and Hinata were the only ones left in the room.

Naruto looked at Hinata, feeling somewhat apprehensive.

He has not had much contact with girls since he was a child, let alone a gentle and lovely girl like Hinata.

At this moment, he felt as if alarm bells were ringing in his heart, and the voice of "What should I do? What should I do?" kept echoing in his mind.

In Naruto's inner world, Kurama appeared as a phantom. Looking at Naruto's tangled look, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "It seems that this Naruto is really different from you."

"Ha ha……"

Naruto could only smile helplessly at this.

Kyuubi also interjected with interest at this time: "So straight?"

Kurama said with a smile: "Yeah, back then Hinata had 'I like you' written all over her face, but he still acted like we were friends."

Naruto couldn't help but blush in embarrassment when he heard these past events.

He hurriedly interrupted Jiu Lama, fearing that these embarrassing things would be heard by others.

Fortunately, at this time, Naruto's mind was completely immersed in the idea of ​​how to get along with Hinata, and he did not notice the inner dialogue.

"Um... Hinata, do you want to find a place to eat together?" Naruto finally plucked up the courage and invited Hinata.

Hinata seemed a little surprised, but soon smiled and nodded, accepting Naruto's invitation.

At the same time, Sakura and Sasuke, who were not far away, were secretly observing the movements of Naruto and Hinata.

Sasuke asked in confusion: "Do we really need to do this?"

Sakura observed and replied, "You know Naruto's personality. If we don't help him, he might never know how to get along with girls in his life."

Sasuke shook his head helplessly, but he was deeply touched by Sakura's words.

Indeed, although Naruto is powerful, he is as slow as a piece of wood when it comes to emotions.

Hinata is a gentle, kind and considerate girl. If Naruto can cherish her well, the two of them may be able to create a different spark.

However, Sasuke also knew that emotional matters cannot be forced.

As for Sakura, Sasuke was also feeling mixed emotions.

He knew that Sakura had always liked him, but he couldn't return her feelings.

Perhaps, this is fate.

As night falls, the streets of Sand Village are brightly lit.

Naruto and Hinata were strolling on the street, enjoying this rare moment of peace and quiet.

Sasuke and Sakura watched them silently from a distance, each with different thoughts and feelings in their hearts.

Naruto brought Hinata, Sakura brought Sasuke, and the two couples enjoyed a rare date time in the Sand Village at night.

Naruto was at a loss as to what to do and could only lead Hinata to stroll through the food street, from the beginning to the end of the street, and enjoy all kinds of delicious food.

Although Hinata is petite, she has an amazing appetite and eats with gusto. Even if Naruto is full, Hinata can still continue to enjoy the same amount of food without changing her expression.

In comparison, Sakura and Sasuke's date seemed more relaxed and enjoyable.

Sasuke doesn't need to worry too much, Sakura will take him to visit various attractions and have fun.

All Sasuke has to do at the end is to casually show the money to trigger screams from the girls around him, adding a lot of romantic atmosphere.

The two couples each enjoyed their sweet time, making this night particularly warm and memorable.

However, the good times didn't last long. Just as they were immersed in this rare date, the communicator rang out a harsh ringtone at an inopportune time: "Sorry to disturb everyone's interest. There is urgent information. According to the Raikage, not long ago, the four tailed beasts of the Land of Lightning, Matatabi, Mu Wang, Chongming and Rhino Dog, were captured by a mysterious person."

Naruto was shocked when he heard this: "What? Isn't Shigeaki in the Land of Fire? How could he be captured?"

Shikamaru was flipping through documents in the Kazekage's office and calmly replied, "According to Obito's reply, Shigeaki had already left before he arrived in the Land of Fire. It seems that he was summoned by the other tailed beasts to conduct an ambush."

Sasuke sneered and said sarcastically, "The ambush failed, and we ended up getting wiped out."

Everyone looked at each other, with an ominous premonition in their hearts.

Hinata was even more shocked. She trembled and said, "The tailed beasts are the pinnacle of ninja world's combat power. One tailed beast is enough to give a village a headache. Now someone can fight against four tailed beasts at the same time. This is simply unbelievable!"

Shikamaru said in a deep voice: "The only tailed beasts that have not been caught yet are the Nine-Tails in your body, Naruto, and Killer Bee's Eight-Tails. We must be vigilant and strengthen preventive measures."

At this point, Shikamaru suddenly remembered something, and his face became serious: "By the way, Naruto, I have another piece of bad news to tell you."

Naruto's heart tightened, sensing that something was wrong: "What news?"

Shikamaru took a deep breath and said slowly: "The Hidden Cloud Village has confirmed that the murderer who attacked the tailed beasts was none other than the Nine-Tails. It was not just a simple chakra leak, but also a tailed beast transformation."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.

Sakura asked hurriedly: "Tailed beast transformation? How is this possible? Isn't the Nine-Tails already in Naruto's body?"

Shikamaru shook his head and said, "I don't know the details, but according to Killer Bee's reply, that power is undoubtedly the Nine-Tails' chakra."

Since witnesses have pointed out that the murderer is the Nine-Tails, the Hidden Cloud Village has begun to be wary of the Konoha Village.

Today, everyone is facing an unprecedented crisis.

They must find the mysterious man as soon as possible, otherwise if he continues to do evil, the Fifth Ninja World War will inevitably break out.
