[Hokage + Natsume] Do you believe it?

It seems that the base of Yinnin Village will always be so dark. It was like this when Naruto and Naruto came to find Sasuke many years ago, and it is still like this many years later. Even though Orochimaru's site was later destroyed, Sasuke still recovered like that.

But such an environment is really annoying!

Sakura shook the chakra-limiting bracelet on her hand and muttered.

She was brought to this place directly after being taken away by Sasuke that day, Sasuke only said "Look at her" and never appeared again.

Sasuke will not do things without a purpose, but after so many days, she can conclude that this is not aimed at her, she is just a decoy, who she is deceiving... well, she guessed it Yes, who else but Naruto?She just doesn't want to admit it.

"Hmph, you're still here." Sasuke opened the information and read the content, then destroyed it, got up and walked out.

It's time for him to see his former so-called companion, probably the only one who still regards him as his companion now is that guy?No, that guy didn't consider him a companion anymore, he knew it.

"Sasuke?"

"Haruno Sakura, it seems that you are having a good time here."

"Ah, thank you for being kind to the captives." What could she say other than a wry smile?

"Haruno Sakura, I'm here to tell you good news. Uzumaki Naruto has come to rescue you. Do you think he can rescue you?" Sasuke went to the table and sat down. Braving the dim light, just like Sakura's current mood.

"What is your purpose?"

"I'm just interested in the child with fox ears and fox tail next to Uzumaki Naruto. Since Konoha hates and fears Kyuubi so much, I believe you have worked hard to hide that child, right? Why don't you give it to me?"

The first time I saw the little fox was in the country of water, and the second time was in Konoha. Even though he was wearing a fat robe and hat that time in Konoha, Sasuke still recognized him at a glance.

Little Fox is so special.

"Little Fox?" Sakura's heart tightened, what did Sasuke want Little Fox to do? "The little fox is not a nine-tailed beast, let alone a tailed beast. He just looks a little weird."

The little fox is a treasure that Naruto holds in his hands, they can all see it, so they are willing to hide the real face of the little fox from others and are willing to accept the little fox, but what does Sasuke want to do now?

"Of course I know he's not a tailed beast. If tailed beasts are like that, any ninja can kill him." Sasuke just sneered at Sakura's nervousness. How could he not know that the child is not a tailed beast? The Nine Tails, he can't feel it at all on Uzumaki Naruto now, although he doesn't know what happened to make it disappear from Uzumaki Naruto, but this is good news for him, isn't it?

"That child is worth studying..."

"But Xiaohu is different to Naruto!" Sakura took a step forward and grabbed Sasuke's clothes tightly. She knew that she was targeting Naruto, but she didn't expect Xiaohu.

"You seem to have forgotten that what he is to Uzumaki Naruto has nothing to do with my audio video!" Sasuke didn't want to shake off Sakura, "Also, I forgot to tell you, Uzumaki Naruto is not He came to Yinnin Village alone, who do you think is next to him?"

"Sasuke, do you never see the endless sadness under Naruto's optimistic smile? When we just graduated from ninja school, you said that I don't understand Naruto's feelings, do you understand? If you I don’t understand, then what qualifications do you have to blame me, if you understand, you are still the one who makes things difficult for him.” Sakura knelt down and covered her face, “You can’t even see when those sky-blue eyes turned into sea-like Can't find the limit?"

Powerless, grief, that feeling filled her mind.

Her family did not die because of Konoha, and the family was not exterminated, so she admits that she doesn't understand Sasuke, she doesn't understand whether hatred is really that important, but at least she knows what is hidden behind Naruto's bright smile, but now Naruto People can't even maintain that pretense.

She didn't know what happened in the past few years when Naruto disappeared, but the person who kept saying that he would become Hokage left Konoha after becoming Hokage, and the person who kept saying that he would bring Sasuke back hid in the mountains.

She didn't know what happened, but she knew it had something to do with Sasuke.

Guess how much pain it takes to teach someone who can only laugh to learn to smile?

Sakura couldn't answer, Sasuke couldn't answer, and Naruto Uzumaki couldn't answer either.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Little fox, will you be afraid?" Naruto asked softly as he lit the fire and patted the little fox's head.

"No! My brother will protect me!" The little fox gnawed on the wild fruit Naruto picked and raised a bright smile at Naruto.

His elder brother is very strong, he will protect him, and he will protect his elder brother when he grows up!

Taking the little fox to live in the wild for one night, at noon the next day, they finally arrived at Yinnin Village, the destination of their trip.

Most of the ninjas in Yinnin Village knew the Hokage of Konoha, not only because Naruto Uzumaki was very famous in the ninja world, but also because of the five years of searching, when they saw Naruto with a child, someone immediately reported it.

Standing in the Snake Cave... No, it can't be called the Snake Cave anymore, Naruto sighed a little, sometimes he would think, if he had been relentless once in so many times before, wouldn't he have been able to bring him back a long time ago? Sasuke back then?Will everything go in another direction?

He doesn't know the answer.

So if something is the most meaningless, because it only exists in fantasy.

Sasuke slowly walked out of the shadows, looked at Naruto Uzumaki standing on the base and sneered mockingly, "What protection, didn't you still abandon his trust? And Naruto Uzumaki, you are confident that you can take it away safely." Haruno Sakura, I am confident that I can keep this child."

"Isn't this what you want to see? Should I say thank you, thank you for knowing Uzumaki Naruto so well?" Naruto just smiled while holding the little fox, and the little fox knew it was dangerous here, so he didn't come out. voice, "You want someone to bring Xiaohu to Yinnin Village, and now I have brought it, so what about Sakura?"

In fact, he was not that confident, so he didn't dare to let other people come. Yinnin Village is no less than a dragon's pond and a tiger's den to Konoha's ninjas, and they are still in the clear about this operation. He is afraid that other people will not go back when they come. The opportunity came, so he didn't dare to take them, although he himself was not Sasuke's opponent.

He's betting that Sasuke won't kill him, like last time.

Sasuke's eyes were black, like the night, he never could understand, but at this moment he could see dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"I thought you wouldn't need you, Hokage-sama, to do such a trivial matter, right?" Sasuke jumped across to Naruto, and pressed his right hand on the hilt of Kusanagi Sword.

"I thought that the assassination of officials from the Country of Flowers also didn't require audiovisual action."

So no matter what the purpose is, we are all the same, just each other.

Sasuke curled his mouth when he heard Naruto's words, looked at Sakura who was being taken out of the base, and turned around lazily, "It's been so long since I haven't seen you, but your eloquence has grown a lot. I don't want to fight or kill people today, so leave this child behind. You can take Haruno Sakura with you, believe me, monsters are very popular in Otonin Village."

Sasuke's last words hit Naruto's heart, making him uncomfortable.

He hated the word monster the most.

"elder brother."

"Yeah." Naruto squatted down and wiped the mud off the little fox's face somehow, "The little fox is not a monster, the little fox is my brother."

I don't know if he said it to the little fox or the child who sat alone on the swing back then.

"I know, I'm a monster!"

"Xiaohu, if I let you stay here, will you be afraid?"

"No! I know that my brother can't take me and sister Sakura away at the same time. Brother Sai is still waiting for sister Sakura, so brother can take sister Sakura away first. I will obediently wait for brother here." The little fox looked Looking at Sakura below, she turned her head and smiled at Naruto, "But brother, remember to pick me up early, I will miss you if I don't see brother! And I still have to go to school, a kid who plays truant is not a good boy!"

"Well, Xiaohu is so good, I will pick you up soon."

When Naruto disappeared completely with Sakura who couldn't use Chakra, the little fox finally turned around and looked at Sasuke, "Bad brother!"

Sasuke couldn't be bothered to look at him, so he jumped down and walked inside, "Little devil, follow me."

The little fox looked at the direction Naruto left, and followed Sasuke and jumped down.

Such a long period of physical training is still useful, at least not so that the shoulders cannot resist the hands and cannot be picked.
