Naruto and Shadow

Forest by the river.

Under a big tree that requires at least two people to hug each other.

The wet clothes have been wrung out and placed on the grass aside to receive the”inspection” of the sun.

The owners of the clothes,

Hino Hikaru and Nohara Rin, were almost naked and sat on both sides of the big tree with their backs to each other. 1

Without a fire, they could only rely on sunlight to dry their bodies and clothes.

“Hino-san……”

Bending her delicate white knees, Nohara Lin carefully placed her palms under her delicate buttocks while staring at the ants on the ground.

Except for a pair of thin shorts, she was now naked.

This almost naked state made her very shy.

This also led to a rather ambiguous atmosphere of silence between the two of them from just now to now.

“Can… tell me about you?”

But Nohara Lin didn’t like this kind of silence, so she suppressed her shyness and spoke first.

“What’s up?”

Unlike the shy girl, Hino Hikaru is seriously testing the gravity control ability he just got from the girl.

【Gravity Manipulation LV1 (Semi-Awakened)]

You can arbitrarily manipulate the gravity between two objects to achieve the ability to attract or repel each other. 1 is an ability that sounds very powerful.

Although this ability is still in a semi-awakened state, Hino Hikaru found that he could still succeed once or twice after trying a few more times.

Just like now – all things are attracted by heaven! On the 7th

, while thinking about someone’s skills silently in his mind, Yeguang activated his gravity control ability on a small stone not far from his body. 1 swish!

After trembling twice, the pebble came to his hand like a flying sword. 1

“Amazing……”

Although the current success rate is very low, and the power is not very strong, this ability is definitely promising in the future.

If he can fully awaken and then rise a few levels, he might be able to resist or even surpass the moves of the Samsara Eye in the future.

“That’s it…why did Hino-san spread such rumors among the people in the village?”

Before the clothes were dried, Nohara Lin decided to take this”candid” opportunity to get to know Hino Hikari.

This was also a doubt she had been holding in her heart for a long time.

“No matter how you look at it, Hino-san is definitely not the kind of person who abandons his companions.”

After these days of getting along, Nohara Rin’s impression of Hino Hikaru has been infinitely close…even almost surpassing that of Kakashi, whom she admires.

“Maybe it’s because I’m an eyesore, and my luck……”

After trying the”Spicy Tensai” several times and failing to shoot out the pebbles in his hand, Hino Hikaru became a little impatient.

After all, semi-awakening is still incomparable to fully-awakened abilities.

This ability can only be used as a special move. For now, if you want to rely on it to save your life, forget it.

“An eyesore? But Hino-san obviously looks very good.……”

Very handsome.

Nohara Lin blushed and added in her mind.

But she quickly understood the meaning of this”eyesore”

“Is it jealousy?”

That’s right, those people must be jealous of Hino-san’s handsomeness and strength, so they made up such rumors to exclude him.

Hino-san is so pitiful……

“Roughly the same.”

Hino Hikaru wanted to say luck, but after thinking about the many narrow escape missions arranged for him by Sarutobi Hiruzen, he stopped talking.

It’s not bad luck that makes him go on missions every time. All his companions died.

But it was Hiruzen Sarutobi, or the entire village’s top management, who did not take the lives of ordinary civilian ninjas seriously. 4

Bait missions, cannon fodder missions, Hino Hikaru has carried out countless times.

Now. Looking back, there seem to be very few civilian ninjas who graduated from the same class as him who are still alive.

As for those ninjas who are descendants of the family, not to mention being led by elite jounin, their task arrangements are much more reasonable. Basically, It will not exceed their own abilities.

The only thing that can be called bad luck is probably the mission led by a special jounin when they first left the village…

Yes, ordinary civilian ninjas can do it after graduation Being assigned a special jounin as a teacher is already pretty good.

“Hino-san?”

Because she couldn’t get a response after asking several questions, Nohara Rin secretly tilted her head back with some curiosity.

Hmm… Hino-san’s skin is so white.

It’s almost like a girl like her.

And the muscles are also…ahem.

Nohara Lin quickly withdrew his gaze.

Because if he looked any further, he would see something bad.

“Sorry, I was a little distracted just now.”

Hino Hikaru threw the pebbles in his hand into the air, and then finally successfully used the”Shinra Tensei” to fly the pebble bullets far away.

“Is it because you think of previous tasks?”

Hearing Hino Hikaru’s suddenly low tone, Nohara Rin couldn’t help but think of those ninjas who died because of missions and wars.

Her path to the ninja was not smooth sailing, but she learned the palm sensibility through hard work, and then got lucky. It became smoother after she joined Minato’s class.

And this mission was also thanks to Hino Hikaru, she was able to survive until now

“Um.”

Hino Hikaru can remember that mission as long as he closes his eyes.

It was just an ordinary escort mission, but he didn’t want to accidentally meet the ninjas of Kumoyin Village who had had many conflicts with Konoha Village on the way back from the mission.

Then….They were wiped out by a genius jounin from the other side.

The only one who survived was him who relied on his invisibility to escape the disaster.

“Hino-san……”

Although she didn’t know what Hino Hikaru was thinking, from his expression, Nohara Lin also understood that what the other person was thinking about now was not a good memory.

It should be a quite painful experience…

However, just when Nohara Rin was about to comfort Hino Hikari – boom!

Without warning, there was an explosion from the bridge not far away.

Crash… the explosion startled the nearby birds.

It also woke up the two boys and girls on the grass.

“Hino-san? Could this be an explosion?”

Nohara Rin instantly realized that the only ones who could cause such an explosion were probably her other two companions, Kakashi and Obito.

So she quickly stood up and asked Hino Hikaru behind the tree.

“It should be them, but we should get dressed first………”

Although there is not much growth, the girl still has some bumps, and she is rosy… 3

This benefit was caught off guard, and Hino Hikaru didn’t know where to put her eyes for a moment.

“ah!!”

After being stunned for two or three seconds, Nohara Lin finally remembered her current situation.

With a high-pitched scream, the girl quickly covered her body with her hands and squatted down.

Why did this happen? What kind of thing is this?

What a shame…what a shame!

“Sorry, but the situation is urgent now, we’d better get there as soon as possible.”

Hino Hikaru never thought that he would suddenly see Nohara Rin like this. Of course, he also didn’t expect Kakashi and Obito to be so impulsive. They went to blow up the bridge so quickly.

“Um……”

Even though she was wearing clothes from behind, Nohara Lin no longer dared to look at Hino Hikari.

Because now, whenever she sees Hino Hikari’s eyes, she will think of herself naked in front of him. 9
