Konoha: Naruto returns from Boruto: Next Generations

The old man was very angry.

Sasuke also knew that Naruto had a good relationship with Gaara in his previous life.

In his previous life, he also dealt with Gaara.

This guy is not a normal person from his appearance.

The dark circles under his eyes are because of the One-Tail. He hasn't had a good sleep for a long time. How can he be calm?

He is also crazy in battle and doesn't recognize his relatives.

It seems that he has to put his opponent to death before he stops.

He is simply a lunatic!

Fortunately, he met Naruto and tried his best to make him understand the importance of companions.

This made him change his past idea of ​​killing for everything, and he wanted to be recognized by others like Naruto, and to protect the people he cherished most.

It can be said that if there was no Naruto, there would be no Gaara who became the fifth Kazekage in his previous life.

Sasuke knew that Naruto had complicated feelings for Gaara.

Originally a very good friend, but now he was in such a crazy state.

No one would be able to accept it.

"So, what do you want?"

Sasuke glanced at Naruto, wanting to know what he thought.

Naruto frowned, looked at Sasuke sideways, and asked in a negotiating manner: "If you tell me the truth about Gaara, what do you think?"

Sasuke pondered for a moment and shook his head.

"No."

"Why?"

Naruto looked at Sasuke curiously.

Sasuke replied very calmly: "Given Gaara's current temperament, it is not suitable to tell him the truth. If you tell him, he may not believe it, and there is a great possibility that we will reveal our identity from the future."

"This is not a good decision!"

Sasuke made a conclusion.

Naruto frowned.

What Sasuke said is not unreasonable.

They returned to the present just to change the future.

Before they really have the power to change the future, only a few people need to know their identities.

Otherwise, it may cause greater chaos.

At that time, let's not talk about whether they have the ability to resist the invasion of the Otsutsuki clan.

The ninja world alone may be torn apart and fighting.

The ninja world that cannot be unified will be vulnerable to the Otsutsuki clan.

This must not happen.

Naruto gritted his teeth and seemed to have made a decision.

The current situation is not suitable to tell Gaara the truth.

Let's wait until we are stronger.

The two talked and turned a corner.

A familiar figure appeared in front of them.

Shikamaru put his hands in his pockets and leaned against the wall.

With his head slightly lowered, his eyes stared at them as if he could see through people's hearts.

He looked like he was waiting for them here.

Sasuke's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Naruto in panic, with a bad feeling in his heart.

Could Shikamaru have heard what he just said to Naruto?

Naruto was also a little panicked.

Why did this guy appear here?

Shikamaru was a meticulous person, good at observing from the details, and had a very flexible mind.

In his previous life, he was also a think tank of Konoha Village. During his tenure as Hokage, he made many suggestions for him.

Almost any difficult problem that gave people a headache, as long as it was given to him, he could think of a solution.

He was so smart that he was not human!

Just now, he and Sasuke were walking and talking, and his mind was completely focused on Gaara, and he didn't notice Shikamaru's trace at all.

Unexpectedly, they ran into each other after turning a corner.

Looking at Shikamaru, it seems that he was waiting for them.

Why?

Did he find something?

Naruto's heart was pounding.

But on the surface, he forced himself to calm down.

Pretending to know nothing and nothing happened.

Pretending to be frightened, he patted his chest.

"Shikamaru, what are you doing here? You scared me!"

Shikamaru stared at Naruto and walked in front of him with a serious expression.

He looked at Naruto's face and then at Sasuke's face.

The scrutinizing look made Naruto and Sasuke nervous and sweated.

"Are you... really Naruto and Sasuke?"

Shikamaru spoke suddenly.

The indifferent tone made it difficult to tell whether it was a question or a doubt.

Naruto and Sasuke were slightly surprised.

Did he see through the clues?

Or was he just testing me?

Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other and then

Pretending to be puzzled.

"What are you talking about, Shikamaru, of course I am Naruto! It's the real deal!"

Naruto patted his chest and said.

Sasuke also nodded and answered with a standard cold attitude.

"I am Uchiha Sasuke, there should be no need to prove it, right?"

"Indeed, your appearance can't lie, but you two have been very strange recently!"

Shikamaru touched his chin and continued to examine the two.

Naruto was sweating.

"What's strange? Shikamaru, what are you talking about?"

"I'm not talking nonsense!"

Shikamaru stared into Naruto's eyes.

"I have factual basis for everything."

Naruto's heart was beating wildly with nervousness, and his heart was raised to his throat.

"What... what basis?"

"You have become a little strange since the actual combat test!"

Shikamaru crossed his arms, looked directly at Naruto, and analyzed calmly.

"You used to be the last in the class, and you were terrible at ninjutsu, but in the actual combat test, you got the first place. The change is too big. What's more, you didn't use ninjutsu at all, but some breathing method."

"How can you have time to learn breathing methods when you have been learning ninjutsu, not to mention that it is an unheard-of breathing method, which is even more strange."

"This..."

Naruto scratched his head, looking embarrassed, not knowing how to explain.

Shikamaru didn't give him a chance to explain and continued to analyze.

"Then, after the appearance of the breathing method, your strength increased significantly, even stronger than some elite jonin, which is not in line with common sense."

"In addition, you often go out of the village and bring back many strange people from outside."

"Especially at Hinata's birthday party, the gift you gave actually changed Hinata's Byakugan directly. Ordinary children don't have this ability."

"This is..."

Naruto looked embarrassed and didn't know how to explain.

He just wanted to become stronger.

It also makes the people around him stronger.

I never thought that I needed to find a reason for my change.

"And you, Sasuke!"

After talking about Naruto, Shikamaru looked at Sasuke again.

There was a glittering light in his clear eyes, as if he wanted to see through Sasuke.

"I know that although you are one of the best in the class, you are not outstanding in the Uchiha clan, so you can play with Naruto, but the Uchiha clan has always been famous for its outstanding ninjutsu. Fire escape and Sharingan are the signature ninjutsu of the Uchiha clan."

"But you have rarely used fire escape in recent battles, and more breathing and lightning escape. It's hard not to make me suspect that you and Naruto have some connection, and you two are too close!"

"And your eyes, at your age, awakening the Sharingan is already amazing, but now it has indeed become a pair of purple eyes, which looks more deterrent than the Sharingan. What's going on?"

Sasuke: "..."

He didn't think about these.

Just because Naruto gave him these, he accepted them.

He believed that Naruto would not harm him.

But unexpectedly, these changes became the reason why Shikamaru suspected them.

"So, what do you want to say?"

Sasuke looked at Shikamaru and said coldly.

Shikamaru suddenly raised his hand and pointed at the two of them.

His eyes were burning, and he spoke slowly.

He seemed to have reached a conclusion.

"From the analysis just now, there is something wrong with you two."

"If I guess correctly, you two..."

Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other, and they could see a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
