Chapter 591: The attack is coming?
Although reconstruction work has already begun in Konoha Village.
But it is impossible to restore it to its pre-destruction state in a short period of time. Now most of the Konoha villagers live in temporary simple wooden houses and tents.
At this moment, in front of a temporary tent.
Two figures met unexpectedly.
"Hinata?"
"Sakura, hello!"
"You're here to see Naruto too?"
"Yes, I, I'm a little worried about him..." Hinata's cheeks turned red as she responded truthfully.
Although she still stutters a little, Hinata is now obviously much more generous than before.
After all, she had already expressed and proved her feelings in the previous Pain invasion.
Speaking of which, Naruto has to thank senior brother Nagato for the once-in-a-lifetime assist!
Without Hinata's catalysis of stepping forward to protect Naruto, the two of them might not have been able to be together in the end.
There are so many stories of destiny but lack of destiny in the ninja world.
"I'm sorry he made you worry..."
Sakura took the initiative to apologize on Naruto's behalf. Although it was a bit wrong to replace Naruto, Sakura was obviously very guilty for not being able to bring Sasuke back this time.
"No, no. We are the ones who should apologize. Kiba and the others didn't blame Naruto before. It's just that..."
Hinata explained hurriedly.
A few days ago, after Naruto returned, he met and chatted with his friends from the Twelve Little Strongmen.
First, to explain the situation of the Five Kage Summit, and second, to discuss the subsequent action plan.
However, that conversation was not a pleasant one.
Most people, including Shikamaru, Neji, Kiba, etc., were dissatisfied with Naruto's actions.
On the one hand: Naruto once again emphasized that he would solve Sasuke's problem alone, which made all his partners worry that Naruto would do something stupid.
On the other hand: Most people are becoming increasingly hostile to Sasuke, who betrayed Konoha and killed Lord Danzo; their relationship with Sasuke is not as strong as theirs with Naruto, so they are also worried that Sasuke will further harm Naruto and the village.
Therefore, there was a lot of fierceness and dissatisfaction towards Sasuke in everyone's words.
This resulted in the conversation with Naruto ending on a somewhat unpleasant note.
Of course Naruto knew that everyone was concerned about him and the village, but many things could not be handled simply by right or wrong.
So.
Naruto has become increasingly negative in the past few days, often hiding in his tent to practice and daydream.
This also made Hinata and Sakura more worried, and they couldn't help but want to look at Naruto more and enlighten him.
"I see."
"Shikamaru and the others all mean well, I know."
"It's Sasuke's problem. Naruto is also troubled by this, he..."
After experiencing a series of wars.
Sakura has also grown a lot and is no longer the infatuated and black-bellied girl she used to be.
This time, she was caught between Naruto and Sasuke, and she knew Naruto's pain very well.
Unfortunately.
There was very little she could do. She couldn't kill Sasuke on behalf of Naruto. Even if she really had the chance, she didn't know if she could do such a cruel thing!
And just as Sakura was talking to Hinata.
In a makeshift tent.
Naruto himself, sensing the chakra aura of the two, walked out of the tent.
"Hinata, Sakura, you're here? What's going on?"
"Naruto-kun..."
"Naruto, are you okay?"
Naruto smiled innocently and touched his head:
"What can happen to me? I'm fine!"
"That Sasuke thing..."
"Oh, don't worry about it! I can handle it myself. This is between Sasuke and I. And I won't let him hurt the village again."
Naruto smiled brightly and comforted everyone. No one knew the bitterness and pressure in his heart.
But it is also his creed to never let his companions suffer and to overcome all difficulties with optimism!
"Gugu~~~"
Naruto's stomach growled.
"Naruto-kun, you haven't had breakfast yet? If you don't mind, could you come eat with me?"
Hinata mustered up the courage to invite.
"Sure! Wait, I don't seem to have any money..."
"It's okay, I have money, I can..."
Seeing that they were about to get together, Sakura felt inexplicably annoyed.
At the same time, he remembered the reason why he came to see Naruto, so he immediately interrupted:
"No need! Kakashi-sensei seems to have something to do with Naruto. I'll take him there first, and I'll buy him some food on the way..."
Sakura said as she grabbed Naruto's arm and dragged him away.
"Hey, hey?"
"Naruto-kun!"
"I'll be back in a minute!"
Naruto waved goodbye to Hinata.
"Sakura, be gentle! What does Kakashi-sensei want to talk to me about?"
"Didn't you say that you kept dreaming about a strange old man these past few nights? Teacher Kakashi told the Kazekage Gaara that guy has experience with nightmares and might be able to help you. So let me take you over to have a look."
Naruto suddenly realized: "So that's it!"
"Oh right! I remember now. Last night the old man said that a monster called the Ten-Tails seemed to have been resurrected. Should I deal with it?"
"The Ten-Tails, is it also a tailed beast?"
"Should be? I'm not sure. But this shouldn't be a simple dream. Kurama seems to know that old man. I have to tell Mr. Kakashi about the information later."
"Nine Lamas?"
"That's Kyuubi's real name. I just found out about it, too."
"Do the tailed beasts have names?"
"Of course! They all have their own names. To be honest, I didn't expect that Kyuubi's name would be so lame. Hahaha..."
Sakura shook her head, not sure what Naruto was so happy about.
In their eyes, the tailed beasts are symbols of terror and cruelty, and mean only hatred and death.
Just like the several times before when Naruto's Nine-Tails Chakra went out of control, each time made people feel bone-chilling cold and terror, and Sakura trembled with fear.
What's the point of being happy about knowing the name of a monster like this?
"Sakura, where is Kakashi-sensei?"
"In the makeshift Hokage building..."
"What are you doing there?"
"I'm not sure, but it seems that they are discussing the selection of the new Hokage. Lady Tsunade is still alive, how can they ..."
"It's okay, Granny Tsunade will definitely wake up!"
"Yes! He will definitely do that. And I heard that Kakashi-sensei is going to be the candidate for the new Hokage..."
"Ah? Really? My father is the Hokage, so Kakashi-sensei is going to be the Hokage too? Then I..."
Naruto's spirit was shaken, and he once again felt an infinite desire to pursue the ambition of becoming Hokage.
"Ah? What did you say?"
"I said……"
Right now.
"call out----!"
A loud and shrill whistle suddenly sounded, piercing the entire ruins of Konoha Village, causing everyone's hearts to tremble and stop in an instant.
Everyone knew that this was an alarm sounded by the ninjas on guard outside the village.
It means that enemies are attacking Konoha Village!
