01.

At dusk, the cities and towns of the Land of Waves present a different kind of desolation. The sky seems to have been cut with a huge wound, and the blood is flowing, and when it flows to the edge, it has turned into a pool of dirty blood.The whole town was thus bathed in an obscure light of blood.

There are still quite a lot of residents here, but most of them are yellow and thin, with dull eyes. Many people, including women, hold signs saying "I am willing to do any job".And depending on how they feel, they will agree to even more excessive demands.

Naruto and Shikamaru walked to the street, Shikamaru frowned, it was the first time he saw such a situation, which was in stark contrast to Konoha.The deeper he walked, the deeper his frown became, and the lazy expression gradually disappeared.

orphan.Shabby circular.Thief.A feeble chase.

Ragged passersby.

He turned his head to look at Naruto, but Naruto over there still had his usual expression, even a little smile on his lips.The light of the setting sun shone on him, and the faint red light refracted in Naruto's eyes, making him look very strange at this moment.

Noticing his gaze, Naruto turned his head and asked, "What's wrong? Shikamaru."

Shikamaru certainly has a lot of questions to ask.

—What's the matter with this town?

——Why is the same town so different from Konoha?

——And why, Naruto's attitude is so calm, he doesn't seem to care at all?

But he opened his mouth, and what he said was, "This is caused by that villainous businessman Kado."

"You can say that." Naruto nodded.

"Do you have other ideas?" Shikamaru asked.

"Because no one can really change a piece of land," Naruto said.

"Are you saying that there is still hope in this land?" Shikamaru asked.

"I mean the people in this land are hot chickens," Naruto said.

Shikamaru: "...Hey, hey."

"Hahaha, what I said seems to be a bit too much." Naruto scratched his head and laughed.

It was a typical Naruto-style silly smile, but somehow Shikamaru saw him getting more and more unfamiliar.

"You," Shikamaru became serious, carefully scrutinizing and catching every expression of Naruto, and then asked: "Why do you think so? It is clear that Kado took away their dreams."

"No one can take away a person's dream." Naruto said seriously, "Unless, it is not a real dream at all."

"Are you so faithful in your dreams?" Shikamaru asked.

"Dreams are like that." Naruto said, "For example, my dream is to protect the people around me and not be controlled by anyone. I am willing to die for this."

"Not everyone has the courage to give everything for their dreams." Shikamaru shook his head and said, "You are too demanding of them."

"I didn't force them, it's because they are incompetent." Naruto said frankly, "That's why they will fall into this situation. Yes, I am referring to people from the land of waves."

"But they are pitiful," Shikamaru said.

"They are even more pathetic," Naruto said.

The two looked at each other.

Naruto's eyes still look innocent.

Shikamaru frowned even deeper.

He is indeed Naruto, there is no doubt about it, but this is really...

"Are you doubting me?" Naruto said abruptly.

Shikamaru was stunned for a moment, then said, "...Yes."

Naruto took a step forward, and showed him a brighter smile, "I am Naruto Uzumaki, but I am different from the crane tail you know, I may tell you later, after all, we have become companions , but now I can't give you all my trust, I believe you are so smart that you can understand."

... Sure enough, there is a problem.

Shikamaru thought in his mind.

"Well, I understand." He nodded and said.

"Of course it doesn't matter if you don't understand." Naruto scratched his hair and laughed, "I'll make it impossible for you to tell." Then he said, "Shikamaru, I know you're a smart person."

This time the line "I know you're smart" feels completely different from the one above.

Shikamaru's back was suddenly covered with cold sweat.

If you speak out, you will definitely be killed.

02.

Of course, Naruto will not be surprised by the appearance of the town of Namachi, he even misses it a little bit, because it reminds him a little of the appearance of Meteor Street.

But in essence it is completely different.

The people in Meteor Street are all working very hard to survive, even though the methods are cruel, they all have the obsession and dream of survival.

But people here are different.

These strong men, these old people waiting for alms.

On Meteor Street, even children can kill.

So Naruto knew he didn't like this country.

"They will die if they resist," Shikamaru said.

"Not all will die." Naruto said, "But if this continues, all the talents here will die."

"They are miserable enough now, life is worse than death." Shikamaru said with a frown.

"Really." Naruto said nothing.

Neither of them could convince the other in this matter.

So they continued walking side by side.

——Even if we can't understand each other, we can support each other and go on.

Today they came to help Dazna's daughter buy vegetables, and they came out to get some fresh air. Sasuke was still training alone, and Naruto finally started training seriously after being repaired by Kakashi, and the progress was rapid. It was about to catch up with Sasuke, so Sasuke was so depressed that he didn't even want to sleep.

After turning around, Shikamaru stopped.

There was a small corpse there.little boy.Should have been starved to death.

Shikamaru couldn't move his footsteps.

Naruto glanced at him, and then looked at the corpse over there. After a while, Naruto said, "Let's burn him or bury him. It's not good to be exposed all the time."

Shikamaru nodded with a dry expression.

He finally found out that something was wrong.

Naruto's remarks about dreams... In fact, it is also very reasonable from another perspective, but it is inconsistent.And now he finally discovered what this violation was.

Naruto is very clear about the scope of his protection, he is only protecting the people around him and the people he recognizes.For people he doesn't approve of, including their lives, Naruto may be... really don't care.

"Naruto." Shikamaru called him.

"What's the matter?" Naruto looked at him sideways and asked, his eyes seemed beautiful, but now they looked a little dark and unfathomable with the backlight.

"If I die, will you bury me or burn me?" Shikamaru asked.

Naruto froze for a moment, then smiled, and said seriously:

"I won't let you die, Shikamaru. I won't let you die."

Shikamaru looked at Uzumaki Naruto.

He was talking to him at the moment, and behind him was the bloody setting sun and the dilapidated streets of Namanokuni, but his eyes seemed to hide the entire blue sky and the hope of a season.

"Because we are companions!"

Naruto said so.

The author has something to say: Naruto is very clear about the scope of his protection, he is only protecting the people around him and the people he recognizes.For people he doesn't approve of, including their lives, Naruto may be... really don't care.

——"Guardian" is Naruto's original character, but "Guardian Range" is a character developed after Meteor Street.

small theater)

"Because we are companions!" Naruto said.

Shikamaru: ... Who wants to be your companion ==! ! !
