I, who was determined to stay in Naruto, became the white moonlight

"Hey - why do I have another mission?" Haruko Asahi looked at Tsunade sitting on the Hokage's seat, very unconvinced, "Didn't you say that I don't have to go on missions until my medical skills enter the next stage?"

Tsunade scratched her face guiltily, "They specifically asked me to go, but as the Hokage I'm busy, so only my beloved little apprentice can go!"

"...Wipe the sauce stains from the corners of your mouth first." Haruko Zao pointed at her face speechlessly.

Why did she meet two teachers with questionable ethics? !

Tsunade comforted herself that she was not embarrassed, coughed lightly, and became serious, "Besides, this trouble was caused by Naruto. He brought back three injured people before, and it turned out that he came from the Oxalis Gold Mine specifically to entrust the mission."

"Naruto?" Haruko Asama was stunned and the corners of her mouth twitched.

I didn't expect Naruto to bring trouble back to me!

After calling Hyuga Neji, Rock Lee, and Tenten, Tsunade also explained the situation to them.

"Oxalis Gold Mine is one of the major mining villages in the Kingdom of Rivers. However, I heard that half a year ago, under the guise of protecting the village, a group of scoundrels who called themselves the Black Shovel Family sneaked into the village. They dominated the village and killed innocent people indiscriminately at will."

After hearing Tsunade's introduction, Rock Lee said indignantly: "That's too much!"

Tsunade gave instructions: "Your mission is to wait until the three of them recover their strength, then send them back to the Sorrel Gold Mine, and also eliminate the Black Shovel Family."

"It sounds okay." Haruko breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not a particularly troublesome task.

"Hyuga Neji, Rock Lee, Tenten, and... that eavesdropping guy!"

Tsunade stabbed a kunai at the ceiling, and it was Uzumaki Naruto who fell down along with the tiles.

Facing everyone's gaze, especially Haruko's curious gaze in the morning, Uzumaki Naruto quickly stood up, smiled embarrassedly, and patted the dust off his butt.

"What? You want to go too?" Tsunade sat back in her seat and looked at him playfully.

"Well..." Uzumaki Naruto glanced at Hayama Haruko subconsciously, and then said righteously, "After all, I brought those three people back, so I should be responsible for them! Can I go with you?"

Tsunade sighed, "Go ahead, go ahead. You will only cause trouble for me if you stay in the village. This time, the four of you will go on the mission with Haruko as the captain."

"Yes!"

……

"The boss of the Kuroshio family is one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?" Haruko said in disbelief while eating ramen in the morning.

Rock Lee, who was sitting at the edge farthest from her, looked around and gave her a shining smile, "Yes! Exclusive information from my respected teacher, Mr. Kai!"

"I don't know whether Teacher Kai's information is reliable." Tiantian sighed.

"Who are the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?" Uzumaki Naruto was puzzled.

Morning Haruko held her forehead helplessly, "Naruto, we fought one of them before in Wave Country, the one who did PUA to Bai."

Uzumaki Naruto suddenly realized: "Oh! That muscle man Zabuza, right!"

"There is also Hoshigaki Kisame who fought with Kakashi-sensei. The two of them are known as the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist Village!"

While Rock Lee was talking about the information seriously, he also gave a heart sign to Haruko Hayama.

"...Haha." Haruko Asahi turned her head away, allowing Tenten and Uzumaki Naruto on both sides to block her view.

It seems that everyone except Rock Lee forgot about his drunken confession after he woke up. Everyone else was particularly wary of him, so the seating order for eating ramen became:

Uzumaki Naruto, Hayama Haruko, Tenten, Hyuga Neji, Rock Lee.

Rock Lee, who was excluded: Haruko, look at me! Look at me!

"If it's that level, it might be a bit troublesome for us to fight against him." Haruko Asahi frowned when she thought of Kakashi and Sasuke who were injured before.

Uzumaki Naruto slurped his ramen without caring, "What are you afraid of? I'll beat anyone who comes my way! And, Haruko, you're talking just like Shikamaru now."

"Hmm? Is that so?" Haruko Zaoma recalled what she had just said, and it seemed that she had indeed learned Shikamaru's catchphrase.

Could it be that after spending too long with Nara Shikamaru, I, who originally wanted to stay out of trouble, have started to become afraid of trouble? !

"Don't be afraid, believe in our strength!" Tiantian clenched his fist and cheered, his eyes full of determination to win.

Hyuga Neji stood up and said, "I'm leaving now."

"Eh? Neji is leaving so soon?" Haruko Asahi put down her chopsticks and looked at him.

Hyuga Neji glanced at her, then turned his gaze to Uzumaki Naruto who was still shouting "Another bowl" next to Haruko in the morning.

"Although I am reluctant to go with someone, I still have to prepare well for the mission."

In the morning, Haruko wiped her sweat and said: Could it be that the big devil is talking about me?

Smirking every day: Neji really likes to make a sour face.

Rock Lee moved: one step closer to Haruko!

Uzumaki Naruto who was actually being targeted: Another bowl!

……

After packing her backpack, Haruko went to the village entrance with Uzumaki Naruto to meet them in the morning, but she happened to meet Uchiha Sasuke on the way.

Seeing that they were obviously going on a long journey, Uchiha Sasuke stood in front of them and said, "Are you going on a mission?"

"Yes, Master Tsunade was supposed to go, but she was too lazy to go, so she asked me to lead the team." Facing the two of them, Haruko Asahi could speak casually.

Uchiha Sasuke looked at Uzumaki Naruto unexpectedly and said, "Only this super invincible idiot is following us?"

"What idiot?!" Uzumaki Naruto narrowed his eyes and stared at him, "Oh~ You're just jealous that I can go on a mission with Haruko!"

"Who is jealous of you?!" Uchiha Sasuke looked furious.

Morning Haruko clapped her hands on their shoulders, "Alright alright, since this mission was brought back by Naruto, Master specifically allowed him to go along, and Tenten and the others will be going with him."

Uzumaki Naruto, who was stopped, folded his arms, snorted and turned his head away.

Uchiha Sasuke grabbed the wrist that Haruko had placed on his shoulder and spoke hesitantly, "I..."

"What's wrong, Sasuke?" Haruko Asagi looked at him puzzledly.

"No...it's nothing. Just be careful on your way."

In the end, Uchiha Sasuke said nothing and watched the two of them walk side by side and get farther and farther away from him.

Naruto Uzumaki said something to Haruko Asagumi, and seeing that she laughed, Naruto Uzumaki was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red, and he scratched his head with a grin.

Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but clench his fists, and his eyes shot sharply at Uzumaki Naruto's careless back.

It seemed that without realizing it, Uzumaki Naruto began to get closer to Hayama Haruko than he did, especially after Hayama Haruko was promoted to Chunin, she started to spend less time with the two of them and instead led others on missions.

Originally, he and Uzumaki Naruto were both waiting for Haruko to return from her mission in the morning and reunite with their Team 7, but why?

Why on earth could that idiot Naruto go with her?

Why is it that she has less and less eyes for me?

Why? !

Uchiha Sasuke lowered his eyes, trying hard to suppress the envy that turned into jealousy in his heart.
