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

"…So that's it. Haruko probably thinks we treat her as a substitute for Morning Haruko, and she's a little uneasy about our overly enthusiastic attitude."

Even though he took the initiative to find them, Beiliuhu was too lazy to even bring them a chair, or he just sat anywhere at home and didn't care about them.

Tsunade scratched her hair, a little annoyed, "It's all Jiraiya, why are you so eager to say Haruko is different!"

"It was Haruko who asked at that time..." Jiraiya replied to her in a not very firm manner.

Tsunade was ignited like a cannon. She grabbed his collar and roared terribly, "It was the same before. He tricked me into coming back by saying that I was in love with Naoki. But Naoki was thousands of miles away. How could he let you know whether he was in love or not?!"

Faced with Tsunade's anger, Jiraiya waved his hands frantically to calm her down, as if fate had caught him.

Orochimaru sneered, "Or should I say that you are more guilty of refusing to give her the necklace?"

Tsunade felt bad about what he said, so she let go of his hand, pursed her lips and let herself feel anxious.

Beiluhu ignored their confusion, bit his fingers and stared at the various physical data of Haruko recorded on the blue screen, "Fortunately... Fortunately, it's just a simple cold..."

"You are really something. You can only hide and spy on Haruko. You dare not show up. You must have overheard these words, right?" Jiraiya pointed the finger at him unexpectedly.

Bei Liuhu glanced at him with disdain and answered confidently: "Without me, you will live in the regret of ignorance for the rest of your life."

What he said was indeed correct. They had never expected that the joy of regaining what they had lost would bring such trouble to Haruko, which made them constantly blame themselves for their impulsiveness.

Tsunade was on her way to find Haruko when she received the call from Hiruzen. She turned around, said "I'm going to find Haruko" and left.

Seeing her leave, Jiraiya hurriedly followed her.

Orochimaru stayed behind, and met Hiruko's eyes with an ambiguous look. He walked closer slowly, "Didn't you say you needed me? It just so happens that I have a way to study Haruko."

His words were full of confidence in his years of research and his determination to get Haruko.

"You're not the only one who understands Haruko." Beiluhu's cold response sounded in the room.

……

Haruko shrank into the bed. It had been a while since Hatake Kakashi left, and now she was filled with shame that suddenly emerged after she realized it belatedly.

"I shouldn't have said it if I had known..." Haruko's depressed voice echoed in the quilt.

Although I know that Hatake Kakashi won't tell anyone, it's still very embarrassing to suddenly lose some momentum in front of him!

Suddenly, Haruko caught a glimpse of an out-of-place corner outside the window. She turned around and found that it was Jiraiya who was smiling and greeting her.

What is he doing outside instead of coming in?

Haruko was just wondering, and then she saw Jiraiya dancing the Toad Dance outside. When asked how she could tell, it was because Jiraiya summoned two little toads to dance with him.

The whole scene looked funny and cute, making Haruko burst out laughing.

When Jiraiya noticed that she was smiling, he danced even harder and made faces to tease her from time to time, which made Haruko, whose thoughts were originally in a mess, forget her troubles and laugh until her face flushed.

"Jiraiya really knows how to make a fool of himself." A pleasant female voice sounded from the other side of Haruko.

Haruko turned her head and found that it was Tsunade who had sat down next to her at some point. When their eyes met, she smiled gently, with a hint of guilt and self-blame in her eyes.

Guilt and self-blame?

Haruko was slightly stunned, not understanding what was wrong with Tsunade.

Tsunade's warm hand brushed gently across her cheek, and she frowned in worry as she felt the fiery heat beneath her fingertips.

"I'm fine Tsunade, I'll be fine in a few days!"

Haruko rubbed her hand, which was relatively cold, to soothe her emotions.

Unexpectedly, Tsunade curled her lips and scolded her softly with heartache: "It's obviously you who is sick, why are you comforting me?"

"But Tsunade looks very sad..." Haruko whispered.

Her conscience was stabbed again. Tsunade covered her mouth and cried silently. She was really so sorry for Haruko!

Haruko: Is Tsunade performing a mime?

There were hurried footsteps outside the door, along with Jiraiya's rough voice.

"Hey, you guys aren't even looking at me, it's making me feel awkward being out here alone!"

Seeing Jiraiya coming in, Tsunade suddenly regained her tough attitude, "Keep dancing, it seems like you haven't finished showing off your ugly side yet."

Sitting down next to her, Jiraiya retorted unconvincedly, "How can a handsome man like me be ugly?! And if Haruko likes to watch, I'll jump for joy!"

"Jiraiya and Tsunade look alike." Haruko's eyes kept moving back and forth between the two of them.

"Who looks like him (her)?!" x2

Seeing both of them snorted and turned their backs, Haruko's cunning eyes curved.

Jiraiya caught a glimpse of her smile from the corner of his eye, scratched his face and brought up another topic, "When you get better, take me out to play. I went where I wanted to go before, but I really prefer to follow behind Haruko."

"But..." Haruko hesitated and did not agree immediately.

If she were to lead, she was afraid that she would be more different from Haruko Hayama and would disappoint Jiraiya...

Seeing what she was worried about, Jiraiya softened his gaze and responded to her firmly with a humorous remark, "Perhaps you are willing to give me another chance to get to know you, so that you can experience the charm of a thirty-year-old uncle?"

Haruko nodded happily, amused by his funny actions.

"This necklace..." Tsunade's words attracted Haruko's attention.

Tsunade raised her hand and stroked the emerald pendant, "No matter what happened in the past, I want to make a promise to you now."

"What promise?" Haruko asked her curiously.

"Promise... When I'm fifty, you must come to me to get it, okay?" Tsunade looked at Haruko stubbornly, as if begging her to agree to this promise that spanned years.

This time, Haruko saw herself in Tsunade's eyes. It had nothing to do with anyone but herself.

Haruko tried hard not to cry and nodded, "Yeah!"

After Haruko got better, they trained for a few more days and then went straight to the Chuunin Exams.

After finding her seat, Haruko sat down directly. Coincidentally, she and Uchiha Obito happened to be sitting at the next table. Seeing her next to him, Uchiha Obito felt a lot more relaxed.

He definitely couldn't lose to that guy Kakashi! He also wanted Haruko to look at him with new eyes!

But...why are some questions so difficult? !

Uchiha Obito had been scratching his head for a long time, and his hand holding the pen was shaking slightly. Looking at the questions on the test paper, his mind was really empty and he couldn't think of anything.

Suddenly he felt something touching his wrist. Uchiha Obito went to look and found it was a folded piece of paper. He looked at Haruko next to him almost reflexively.

Haruko gave him a small hushing gesture, signaling him to turn his head away and not look at her.

Although he got the answer, Uchiha Obito, who was showing off, didn't intend to copy the answer given by Haruko at first. As a result, he saw Haruko's threatening words written on the cover of the paper -

"If Obito leaves me alone without getting promoted, I will change all your clothes into skirts!!!"

After reading the note, Uchiha Obito shuddered and looked back furtively, only to be met with Haruko's kind smile.

Uchiha Obito:......

Who knows! In this day and age, there are still people threatening him to cheat!
