The three sat on the wooden dragon and soared in the sky. They were very fast, and they skipped the void in the middle in an instant, and entered the forest they saw before.

After entering the forest, Naruto put away the wooden dragon, and Sasuke looked around: "And then? What are we doing here? Can we enter the artificial sun from here?"

"After passing through the forest, there are the ruins of the city where the descendants of Hamura used to live. Let's go there first to find the chakra left by Hamura." Speaking of this, Naruto looked at Jin and grinned: "Uncle Jin also wants to explore the cultural customs here Bar?"

Along the way, Naruto got to know some of Jin's preferences.

Jin is like Uncle Jiraiya, he likes to travel around, but Jiraiya is also collecting information, Jin just likes to study cultural customs.

Jin Daxi: "Thank you!"

Naruto gave Kim a thumbs up.

The forest area in front of them is extremely vast, and when they walked through the forest and came to the ruins of the town, it was already night, and the sun in the sky had disappeared, so Naruto suggested: "Let's find a place to rest for a while, and eat something by the way." thing?"

Jin was eager to try: "I'm going to take a look nearby."

Naruto greeted, "Don't run around."

Jin responded, and went directly into the ruins to check back and forth. Naruto asked Sasuke, "Would you like to go around together?"

Sasuke said indifferently: "Okay, let's see."

The two walked in the ruins full of dust and spider silk. Naruto's eyes fell on the spider silk, and he suddenly smiled and said to Sasuke: "Speaking of which, the last time I came to the moon was to save Hanabi, and Hinata followed coming."

Sasuke looked at Naruto from the side, but saw Naruto's look of reminiscence.

"At that time, I still carried the scarf my mother left me, and Hinata also carried a scarf. She knitted scarves when she was free, and it was the same when she was performing tasks."

"I thought it was weird at the time, but Sakura later said that she knitted it for me."

Sasuke narrowed his eyes slightly after hearing this, but said nothing.

Today's wind is so loud, so loud that Sasuke suddenly felt a little restless.

It was a feeling he had never felt before.

Hinata Hinata, of course he knows the princess of the Hyuga Clan, she is a classmate after all, but he knew Hinata a long time ago, when he was still very young, even before school.

The eldest daughter of the head of the Hyuga clan, and the much-anticipated next generation of the same generation as his older brother Itachi Uchiha.

Even if Hinata is the same age as Sasuke, since she is the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan, the person who is compared is of course the eldest son of the horizontal Uchiha clan.

The Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan are both pupil art families, and they are both the top clans in Konoha. Naturally, there are invisible competitions and comparisons. When Sasuke was a child, he occasionally heard his father mention the Hyuga family.

However, Uchiha Fugaku naturally has very strong confidence in the eldest son. Leaving aside qualifications and age alone, Uchiha Itachi is six years older than Hinata Hinata, and Hinata Hinata is still a girl, so he is definitely not as good as Uchiha Itachi.

The fact is indeed the case, Hyuga Hinata who grew up did not show any talent, and Uchiha Fugaku never mentioned this girl again.

After Sasuke went to school and met Hinata Hinata, he no longer regarded Hinata Hinata as an opponent, because that girl's fighting level was really average.

...It's not even as durable as Naruto at the end of the crane.

Thinking about it now, during those six years at school, it was Naruto who really left an impression on him.

Even Sakura, if she hadn't become a teammate later, Sasuke probably wouldn't have seen Sakura's efforts and pursuit.

As soon as Sasuke thought of Sakura, Naruto said, "Speaking of which, Sakura has been waiting for you to go back."

He looked at Sasuke: "Where is Sasuke? Will you take Sakura away?"

Sasuke was startled, feeling a little strange: "Why should I take her away?"

Sakura's parents, relatives and friends are all in Konoha, unlike Sasuke whose whole family has left, why did he take Sakura away?

Naruto pursed his lips, and he lowered his head slightly: "I was surprised when Sakura said that Hinata liked me."

Naruto took a deep breath, he looked up at the sky, the sky was pitch black, as if he had returned to the past: "Sakura cried and said to me, she hoped I could understand Hinata's heart, because girls' love is too fragile It's too soft, it's hard for her to have hope, she hopes Hinata can be happy."

"But Sakura said, if I accepted Hinata, it would be even more impossible to meet you, Sasuke, because Sakura felt that I was the only Konoha at that time who could really bring you back."

Naruto smiled wryly: "Sometimes she wants me to accept it and sometimes she wants me to reject it. I was confused by Sakura, and I don't understand what she thinks at all."

"But now I understand."

Naruto heaved a sigh of relief, this kind of uneasy and joyful mood, this kind of tangled and complicated hesitation, is really tormenting.

He hoped that Sasuke could understand his feelings, but he was worried that Sasuke would be disgusted, so it would be better to say nothing at the beginning and continue to be brothers and friends.Isn't that the case in Senshouzhujian?

Sasuke tilted his head to look at Naruto, and asked abruptly, "Did you reject Hinata?"

Naruto said as a matter of course: "I definitely refused, I was still looking for you at the time, if I agreed to Hinata, wouldn't it be a drag on her? She is the eldest daughter of the Hinata family, and there must be a better husband candidate than me. "

"And at that time I was still having a headache how to solve the caged bird in Hyuga's branch. I promised Neji, and Neji left to protect me. How could I break the contract?"

Naruto bowed his head, his expression a little unpredictable: "So the patriarch Hyuga asked me at that time, if I didn't marry Hinata, Hinata would be put into the branch family, engraved with a bird in a cage, how could I bear it, I said, then I will marry you. Untie the caged bird."

"...It's ridiculous, the patriarch Hinata is Hinata's father, but he asked me how I could bear it." Naruto said slowly: "After I rescued Hanabi, the patriarch Hyuga asked me in private if I wanted to be with him. Hanabi got married, and Shikamaru said that the Hinata clan wanted to deepen their relationship with me, because I would definitely be the next Hokage."

Speaking of this, Naruto suddenly laughed, and he gave Sasuke a thumbs up: "You can't think of it? In the end, the one among the three of us who became Hokage was Sakura."

Sasuke's eyes widened slightly: "Really?"

"Really." Naruto remembered Sakura's resolute face when he left, and a warm feeling rose in his heart: "She is telling me, go ahead and do it, I will protect your back."

Sasuke was in a daze, and after a long time he also smiled, thinking of the girl who was stubbornly chasing after him, Sasuke said softly: "If there is a chance to go back, I should thank her."

Naruto was able to stand in front of him because of Sakura's silent support and protection, and also, their seventh class is a whole.

"Of course you have to thank her, because at that time Konoha was the only one who supported me to come to you." Naruto curled his lips: "Although Kakashi-sensei didn't support it, he didn't object explicitly, and the others just... hey, Don't mention it."

After a pause, Naruto said abruptly, "You have to thank Orochimaru, he almost came here with me."

Sasuke commented pertinently: "He is indeed a powerful guy." After a pause: "But it is also quite troublesome."

Naruto continued: "Suigetsu and the others are also very supportive of me, saying that Otonin Village is very boring after you leave, and Xianglin's weight has dropped by at least [-] catties."

Sasuke laughed. He thought of his former teammate Xianglin, and after silently calculating, he was a little surprised: "She was already very thin, but she lost [-] pounds? Does she still have muscles? Can she fight?"

Naruto glanced at Sasuke speechlessly, did this guy only think about fighting?Too confused?

But he is not qualified to say Sasuke, Naruto thought helplessly, if Sakura hadn't told him, he might not know that Hinata has always liked him.

Otsutsuki Sheto has liked Hinata for a long time, Hinata has liked himself for a long time, and his eyes have been on Sasuke for many years...

Naruto suddenly became a literary brain, full of emotion: "Ah, love!"

What a tormenting goblin!

Sasuke looked at Naruto inexplicably: "...Why are you crazy?"

Naruto's expression froze, he drooped his head: "Oh, it's nothing."

Instead, Sasuke asked Naruto: "If you didn't come to me because you left the village, would you be with Hinata?"

Naruto was startled: "Why do you ask that?"

Sasuke said calmly: "It's human nature to start a family, start a business, get married and have children. If it weren't for something like that at home, I, as the second son of the family, would go to the Konoha Guard after serving as a ninja for a while. It's an intermarriage, I may go on a blind date with cousins ​​of the right age in the family, and if it's suitable, we'll be together."

Naruto wowed: "It sounds super ordinary." He couldn't help imagining: "What about me? If I wasn't an orphan and my parents hadn't died, I would be the son of Hokage!"

When it comes to the Son of Hokage, Naruto is most impressed by Konoha Maru, the grandson of the third generation.

"Maybe I'm a dandy?" Naruto put his hands on his chest, imitating Konoha Maru's arrogance, and said with a smirk, "I'm the son of Kage, and all the idlers will step down! ... or something like that. ?”

Sasuke was amused by Naruto Shubao, the wind blew through his hair, revealing his soft eyebrows and eyes.

Naruto looked at Sasuke quietly, then changed his voice: "But there is no if."

"You asked me if I would have been with Hinata if I hadn't come to look for you. I can only say that I don't know, maybe I will, or I won't."

Naruto's tone is very sincere: "But my parents died because of the Nine Lamas when I was born. I have no choice from the beginning, or I have no chance to choose in my life."

"Becoming Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, becoming a monster despised by the village, becoming a ninja to gain everyone's approval... This is the only way I can choose."

Naruto smiled subconsciously when he said this: "But the moment you left, I had another choice in my life. I can choose to stay in Konoha, or I can choose to chase you out."

"I had the opportunity to choose my own life."

Naruto stretched out his hand to the sky: "For the first time, I have something I want to do, not because of survival, not because of the teacher's teaching, nor because of the village's approval, but because of my own desire."

"...Uncle Hashirama said that Uchiha Madara was his apocalypse, which came from heaven to him."

Naruto said softly: "Sasuke, you are the same to me. Whenever I think of you, I seem to see stars twinkling in the sky. You are in such a bright and dazzling place, even if you are millions of light years away from me. , even if the distance makes people despair, it still makes me courageous and full of hope."

"That's why I say, there are no ifs in life."

"All of this was doomed from the beginning of Konoha's establishment, or from the battle between Indra and Asura, or from the time Otsutsuki Kaguya swallowed the fruit of the sacred tree to rule the continent. ..."

"Everything about us is already doomed, there has never been an if."

Sasuke lowered his eyes, and he slowly exhaled the depression in his chest.

Yes, if Kaguya Hime hadn't swallowed the fruit of the sacred tree, would there be Sage of the Six Paths and Otsutsuki Yucun?If the two Sages of the Six Paths didn't seal Kaguya Ji, would there be a black sword?Will there be a fight to the death between Indra and Asura, will there be a love-hate entanglement between Uchiha and Senju for thousands of years?

Will Senjujuma and Uchiha Madara go tit for tat and work together?Will they go their separate ways?Are they going to die all the time?Will there still be a gap between Uchiha and Konoha?Will Uchiha be wiped out?Will Uchiha Sasuke be dominated by hatred?

As Naruto said, everything is predestined.

Sasuke and Naruto didn't speak for a long time. One of them stood on top of the mottled ruins wall, and the other leaned against the wall. Both of them stared at the distant place and fell into their own thoughts.

The howling wind kept blowing, and there were broken fallen leaves swirling in front of the eyes. They first flew to Sasuke, then to Naruto on the wall, and finally to the sky, turning into an unreachable black spot, and finally disappeared. .

Sasuke closed his eyes, and said softly, "You're right."

It is fate for me to meet you, if that is the case, there is nothing to consider.

Naruto lowered his head, he looked at Sasuke by the wall, feeling a little uneasy.

What does Sasuke mean by right?

Naruto jumped down from the top of the ruined wall, and he looked at Sasuke, feeling embarrassed in his heart, but his face was still tense.

"Sasuke also thinks I'm right? Then... do you still want to go on a blind date with your cousin at home?"

Sasuke glanced at Naruto: "There are three or four sisters of my age, one is engaged, and the others are still in school."

Naruto swallowed, and whispered, "And then?"

Sasuke smiled suddenly: "Didn't I say before that I don't plan to get married for the time being?"

Naruto looked confused, yes, Sasuke did say that before, but now there is a temporary prefix in front of this sentence, which is really embarrassing.

"However, someone recently booked my wedding invitation, and I have already agreed, so the wedding is still going to be held."

This is about Dazai, Sasuke looked at Kami Naruto with an unbelievable expression, he nodded and said: "But not now, at the earliest it will be a few years later."

You have to graduate from university, and the task here is not finished yet.

Naruto felt his heart was about to shatter into shards of glass: "Unknown cousin?"

Sasuke looked at Naruto, if counting from Uzumaki and Senju, he and Uchiha are also relatives.

He asked Naruto: "Are you a few months younger than me?"

Naruto didn't understand, so he said, "Yes, I am from October, and you are from July."

That is the cousin?Sasuke touched his chin: "I see."

... what do you know?Naruto is all bad.

He grabbed Sasuke's arm and asked persistently, "Can you speak clearly? Do you have a marriage partner?"

Sasuke nodded briskly: "Well, I think so at the moment."

I still thought about it for a long time, and withstood questions from my family [Zhi Shui: I am not I did not! ], was affirmed by Naruto [Naruto: What did I say? ], and the clan's blessing [Dazai: Remember to give me the invitation! 】

Naruto, who knew nothing about it, felt as if he had been smashed into black ash by a hundred thousand volts of lightning, and his soul was about to fly out.

In the next second, Sasuke said again: "But now is not the time, I will make it clear when I finish my work."

Naruto managed to pull himself together: "That means you're not sure yet?" Who is so blind that he doesn't want to?

Then Naruto glared at Sasuke bitterly: "Then I wish you a good break in love!"

Sasuke tilted his head, he looked at Naruto: "You don't want to?"

Naruto: "Of course I would!!"

Sasuke: "..."

Naruto:"…………"

Naruto: "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

He pressed Sasuke's shoulders with both hands suddenly: "You you you you you——"

Sasuke frowned, and he slapped Naruto's hand back, causing his shoulder to hurt: "Why are you stuttering? Since you have no objection, let's talk about it later, I'm busy now."

Naruto:……?

How can we talk about it later?Why was it later?

Naruto jumped into a rage, his expression was extremely ferocious.

"No! You can't talk about this later! Say it clearly now!"

Naruto roared with the courage of his life: "Is it me who you want to marry?"

Just as Sasuke was about to answer yes, he suddenly looked sideways at the tree next to him, and saw Jin clutching a handful of berries in embarrassment: "Um, I want to say that we can have dinner, this...you continue?"

When Jin said this, Sasuke immediately realized, yes, he was indeed hungry.

He said to Naruto: "Well, it's you, let's go eat first."

After speaking, he turned and walked towards Jin: "What kind of fruit is this?"

"..." Jin silently looked at Naruto, who had turned into a statue with a red head, and then at Sasuke, who was calm, and felt something strange: "I found this in the corner of the ruined house. The plant looked a bit like a fig tree, and I tasted a fruit, which tasted sweet, so I picked some."

Sasuke reached out and picked the fruit from the branch, sniffed it, and took a bite: "Well, it tastes like milk."

"Yes, I think it tastes good." Jin looked at Naruto who was still working as a statue, and whispered, "Are you...together?"

Sasuke shook his head: "I just have this idea, I still have a heavy responsibility, you know, I don't have time to think about it right now." Then Sasuke changed his voice: "But after the matter is over, I think it will only be Naruto Bar?"

Thinking of the goal of the Toki Government, Jin couldn't help but nodded: "Yes, we must first solve the problem of survival." However, he raised his hand and patted Sasuke on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Even if you can't talk about business, you can still express your heart Get out, or what if he misunderstands?"

Jin is well-informed, and his theoretical knowledge is still richer than Sasuke.

"It's not good for you or him for you to hang him in such a vague way."

"Ah? I'm hanging him?" Sasuke said humbly without realizing it, "Is that so?"

Jin coughed and said in a low voice, "I'll say it again, you go and repeat it to Naruto."

Jin said: "I have considered the matter between you and me, but now I still have family responsibilities to fulfill. After my business is over, if I still want to get married, I think my partner can only be you. So give me some time first, okay?"

"...So, what do you think?" Jin asked Sasuke.

Sasuke tasted Pin Jin's lines and thought they were perfect, he nodded heavily: "It's pretty good, I'll go and tell him."

So Naruto managed to cool down his brain that was almost burnt to slag, and he could think normally. Sasuke came over and looked at him seriously.

"I have considered the matter between you and me, but now I still have family responsibilities to fulfill. After my affairs are finished, if I still want to get married, I think my partner can only be you, so give I have some time, can I?"

"........."

Naruto:! ! !

boom!The fireworks are exploding!

Sasuke looked at Naruto suspiciously, he looked at Jin again, he asked Jin: "...Are you sure Naruto heard what I said?"

Jin raised his hand to cover his face, and then couldn't help laughing, this is youth~

He coughed, put down the fruit in his hand, walked up to Naruto, and suddenly stretched out his hands to pat Naruto's face.

Jin used his mental power and shouted loudly: "I'm back to my senses!!"

Naruto's whole body trembled, his body reacted spontaneously, and retreated more than ten meters in a whiz to avoid Jin who was violently bursting out with his thoughts. He looked at Jin, and it took a few seconds before he remembered what happened just now.

Endless joy welled up in his heart, Naruto rushed over excitedly, pushed Jin away with his backhand, and threw himself directly on Sasuke.

Naruto said happily: "Sasuke, you, you said just now that you have considered the matter between us? You also said that the only partner who will get married is me, is it true?"

Assistant nodded naturally, he accepted Jin's suggestion, and tried to tell Naruto his thoughts and feelings.

"You said before that there are no ifs in life, and I think so too."

He smiled: "Naruto, when I saw you at sea, I was actually very happy."

There is such a person who will never give up on himself no matter what, and will grab his hand, trying to drag himself out of the darkness and bathe in the sunshine again.

Naruto's eyes widened slightly, looking at Sasuke who seemed to be thinking about what to say, his heart was very warm.

It turned out that my hard work and pursuit over the years were not in vain.

Sasuke saw it all, and he kept it in his heart.

"Zhishui once asked me, if I was doomed to die at your hands, would I still want to know you, I thought about it all night, and the answer is yes."

Sasuke looked at Naruto: "You said you are not Senju Hashirama, and of course I am not Uchiha Madara, he is so stupid, I don't want to be him."

Naruto laughed, how he thought Sasuke was cute.

Yes, I am also blind, how could Sasuke become like Uchiha Madara?

Sasuke said earnestly: "I don't quite understand what I like about this kind of thing."

"I think life is not just about liking. There are too many things that people have to face in this life. I think the only person who can face it with me is you."

The black-haired young man smiled, with a gentle and calm expression, and he said: "Give me some time, I won't leave suddenly this time, I will definitely tell you before I leave, if you want, let's go together..."

"Of course I would!!"

Naruto said excitedly: "Why do you think I came here after you! Bastard Sasuke!"

The corners of Sasuke's lips were raised, he raised his chin slightly, and there was a hint of teasing and ridicule between his brows.

"Ah, I see, the end of the crane."

Seeing the two young men teasing and frolicking with each other, Jin who was pushed away and sat on the ground sighed heavily.

"Youth..." He rubbed his stomach, "I'm hungry."
