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

"Next, we will escort Mr. Rokusuke and his party while heading to the Oxalis Gold Mine to eliminate the Black Shovel Family."

In the morning, Haruko became a little more interested as she saw everyone getting ready to go.

Rock Lee squeezed in front of Morning Haruko and said earnestly: "There is a store near the mine that I am very familiar with. We can use it as a base!"

"What kind of store is it that you're very familiar with?" Tiantian asked doubtfully.

"This is it! The Curry House of Life!"

They hurried on their way and finally saw a restaurant not far away. Rock Lee rushed over excitedly, picked up the old lady who was watering the plants at the door of the restaurant and started spinning around.

"Grandma Sansho!"

"Turns out it's a curry restaurant." Tiantian's expectations along the way always felt a little disappointed.

Morning Haruko smiled and took her hand, "Curry rice is not bad either, Naruto will definitely like it."

Tenten looked and saw that Uzumaki Naruto had indeed rushed over, but he passed Rock Lee who was still spinning in circles and ran straight into the curry shop.

"...Those two idiots." Hyuga Neji's face was filled with black lines.

After entering the curry shop, they found that the decoration inside was simple but rustic.

Granny Sansho smiled kindly and said, "Hey, hey, it's been a long time."

"My life was saved by Granny Sansho's curry!" Rock Lee was so moved that he burst into tears.

Tiantian's anticipation rose again, "Are you saying her curry is especially delicious?"

"No, it really means saving a life." Rock Lee's eyes lit up.

It was only when Granny Sansho handed them the curry that they realized the seriousness of the matter.

"So... you fell asleep while running and couldn't wake up, and then you were woken up by the perverted spicy curry and saved your life?!"

Uzumaki Naruto looked at the bubbling black curry in front of him and swallowed hard. The others looked at each other in embarrassment.

"Everyone! Granny Sansho made this especially for us, let's eat it!"

Rock Lee was oblivious to their atmosphere and simply scooped a large mouthful of curry into his mouth with a spoon.

Everyone stared at him intently as he ate the curry. His face then turned red, and even Haruko thought his head was about to explode. However, Rock Lee started to eat with big mouthfuls as if he had tasted a delicacy.

Uzumaki Naruto looked at Rock Lee who was eating enthusiastically, then looked at the dark dish in front of him. Finally, he was tempted and took a bite to try.

"Naruto!" It was too late for Haruko to stop him in the morning, he had already eaten it.

Seeing that Uzumaki Naruto chewed it for a few times and found nothing unusual, Hyuga Neji, not wanting to be outdone, also scooped a mouthful.

Tenten saw Hyuga Neji competing with him, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

The next second, both of them were furious, their faces turned red, and they fell on the table.

"Naruto! Drink some water!" Haruko Zaoma quickly handed the cup of water to Naruto Uzumaki opposite her.

Using his remaining consciousness to take the cup of water, Uzumaki Naruto drank it in one gulp, but the spiciness still made his eyes tear up.

In the morning, Haruko handed him the cup of water that she had not yet drunk. After drinking two cups of water in one breath, Uzumaki Naruto finally felt alive.

Tenten, who was standing by, also asked Granny Sansho to pour them some more water. Seeing Hyuga Neji's red, unconvinced face, Tenten snickered and whispered in his ear, "Does this count as losing face again because of not winning the competition?"

Hyuga Neji glared at her, but his moist eyes had no lethality. Instead, they made Tenten smile even more happily.

At this time, Uzumaki Naruto also realized that what he had just drunk was actually Haruko's cup of water in the morning, and his brain stopped working.

"I haven't drunk it yet. Sorry, Naruto. I gave you my cup because I saw you were feeling so uncomfortable." Haruko Asahi thought he was disliking the cup she had used, so she quickly explained.

"No...no! I don't mind!" Although Uzumaki Naruto's face was still red, he didn't want her to misunderstand.

He just held Haruko's water cup tightly in both hands, as if he wanted to monopolize this small glass.

No wonder... the water just now was so sweet...

"Then let's use Granny Sansho's shop as our base and investigate the situation in the village." Morning Haruko looked around them carefully, then looked at Granny Sansho, "Then please ask Granny to make us a normal serving of curry."

However, plans cannot keep up with changes. In the evening, the other two clients came to them in a panic and told them that Mr. Rokusuke was missing. They thought that he had secretly run to the Oxalis Gold Mine to rescue their companions. So Haruko had to take everyone to rescue him in the morning.

It was almost dawn when they arrived at the Oxalis Gold Mine, where they encountered the minions of the Black Shovel family who were abusing the old man. Rock Lee defeated them in one fell swoop.

From the old man, they learned that Lei Ya, the boss of the Black Shovel Family, hated people who betrayed him the most. If he was caught, he would hold a funeral for that person alive and cry for that person with all his heart.

And judging from the gong sounds we just heard, it seems that they are holding a funeral for Rokusuke who was captured today.

"Sending him to death and crying for him, this gangster boss's XP is quite novel."

In the morning, Haruko looked at the mysterious black-robed boss not far away, and she couldn't hide the contempt in her eyes.

"But this funeral is quite grand." Tiantian sighed.

"When I die, I will hold a funeral full of passion, youth and sweat! To commemorate the beautiful blue beast of Konoha!" Rock Lee clenched his fists excitedly.

Haruko Asagi followed his train of thought and thought: "That would probably be a group of people wearing green tights crying and sobbing at your funeral?"

Uzumaki Naruto also imagined that scene, and everyone in the audience had thick eyebrows, and couldn't help but shiver with disgust.

"Okay, let's get started." Hyuga Neji stopped their increasingly exaggerated imaginations.

Morning Haruko looked around attentively, "Ningji, use your Byakugan to see."

Hyuga Neji concentrated, opened his Byakugan and looked through the coffin. He found that Rokusuke lying inside was unconscious but still alive. When he looked back, he actually found a pair of eyes watching him on the rocky mountain in the distance.

In the morning, Haruko and Tiantian each threw a few smoke bombs, and then rushed straight towards the enemy with the others.

"Tenten on the left, Lee on the right, Naruto go rescue Mr. Rokusuke." Morning Haruko made arrangements while running, "Ningji and I will go to the rock mountain over there to catch Raiga."

After sweeping the enemy, Rock Lee's flying kick suddenly stopped.

"You are……"

"What's wrong, Xiao Li?" Tiantian came over and asked.

"He is Mustard, the son of Granny Sansho." Rock Lee looked at Mustard who was lying on the ground seriously, "I heard that you took the initiative to join the Black Shovel Family, is that true?"

Mustard wiped the dirt off his face with disdain, "I joined, so what?"

"You bastard!" Uzumaki Naruto was immediately irritated when he saw his indifferent attitude.

But Mustard Seed argued, "Because Lord Lei Ya is very powerful, he drove away all the bad officials in the Oxalis Gold Mine, and let the villagers gain freedom!"

Rock Lee stopped Uzumaki Naruto who was about to attack, and then punched Mustard without changing his expression.

"Mother Sansho cooks curry every day, waiting for you to come back!"
