Chapter 278 It’s great to have you by my side
The minor incidents did not affect the lively atmosphere on the scene.
As if influenced by the atmosphere on the scene, Naruto's heart suddenly filled with great ambition.
Snapped! ! !
Naruto slammed the empty cup in his hand on the table, waved his hand and shouted loudly.
"Fill up the wine!"
Duang! ! !
Naruto: (*?????)……
"Why are you drinking alcohol at such a young age?!"
Kushina rolled her eyes at her silly son, then turned to look at Hinata who was standing right next to her.
"Daughter-in-law, pour him a glass of milk."
Hinata: (? ???w??? ?)~
"Okay, okay."
As a result, Naruto's plan of "the first glass of wine in the ninja world" was officially declared bankrupt under the strong suppression of his old mother.
……
"Take your time to eat. I'm going to go out for some fresh air."
Naruto stood up and greeted everyone.
Everyone present was immersed in the joyful atmosphere and ignored him. Even the old mother just waved at him symbolically, indicating that Naruto should leave quickly.
"Ugh……"
Suddenly I feel like there is no love in this world~
Naruto left the table and walked out of the venue alone in a desolate manner.
Hinata seemed to have noticed something strange about Naruto, and stared at his gradually receding back in a daze.
slap~
Kushina gently slapped Hinata's little head to wake her up and said with a smile.
"Why don't you chase him?"
Hinata: ?_?~
"……Um."
Hinata responded softly, stood up and bowed deeply to everyone, then turned around and followed Naruto's figure.
Everyone present looked at Hinata's gradually receding back and laughed kindly at the same time.
……
When Hinata found Naruto, he was squatting under a tree in the dark, holding onto the trunk and vomiting uncontrollably.
The dirty vomit mixed with the hot tears that slid down Naruto's cheeks covered the entire root area of the tree, and the peculiar smell made people feel sour in their hearts.
Naruto's body couldn't stop shaking, and the little guy curled up under the tree like a wounded little animal.
Hinata knew that Naruto was crying.
Even though he didn't make any sound, he was crying.
Hinata could sense the sadness emanating from Naruto's body from a distance.
[Why doesn't Naruto cry out loud? He can cry out loud...]
Such a profound question is not something Hinata can figure out right now.
At this moment, she only knew that her lover needed comfort, or at least he should be able to cry freely and pour out all the grievances and resentments in his heart.
So Hinata plucked up the courage to walk forward, squatted down and put her arms around Naruto's waist.
"Who... is it, it's Hinata...
I’m sorry to have you see me in such a mess…”
"Cry if you want to."
"Wha, what?"
"Cry if you want to."
Hinata repeated the words she had just said. She turned Naruto's body over and spoke word by word while looking directly into her lover's eyes.
“No matter what happens, I will always be by Naruto’s side.
so……"
Hinata couldn't continue speaking. Saying what she just said was already the limit for this shy little girl.
"Hina, Hinata... wow~"
"Well……"
Naruto hugged Hinata with his backhand, and fell limply into her arms, crying loudly.
It was strange that this time the contact with Naruto was much more intimate than before, but Hinata did not feel like fainting for the first time.
She gently stroked Naruto's hair, without saying anything to comfort him or doing anything else unnecessary, but just listened quietly to what Naruto said.
"Hinata, do you know? I killed people today... today. I killed many people."
Indeed, Naruto killed many people today.
Although Naruto has killed people over the years, even Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo were killed by Naruto himself.
But like today, holding a gun and shooting at a group of people who had already lost their ability to resist with an expressionless face, and witnessing their horrific deaths one after another...
This was the first time Naruto had ever done this.
One can imagine how much psychological impact what Naruto did today had on him.
Even though Naruto finally resurrected all those ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village who died tragically, some things have been done;
Even if everything has been salvaged, the shadow has already taken root somewhere deep in my heart.
The various expressions on the faces of those Hidden Rain Village ninjas before they died were gradually turning into the nightmares lurking deep in Naruto's heart.
Afterwards, it was not easy for Naruto to arrange all the subsequent matters with a normal expression, attend the banquet as if nothing had happened and persist until now.
“This is the first time I’ve killed so many people, Hinata… I’m scared, I’m really scared.
But I had to do it..."
"I can't even... I can't even cry in front of other people because I'm their leader now...
As a leader, I must not show my weak side in public..."
"But I don't regret it... There is still a long way to go to promote peace in the ninja world...
I can't regret, I can't be afraid, I can't stop, I can't retreat...
Every decision I make will directly affect the life and death of Akatsuki and even everyone in the ninja world, so once I make a decision... I can't regret it!
Even if the consequences of this decision will turn into a nightmare that haunts me for the rest of my life..."
"Hinata, I'm so tired, I'm really tired Hinata... wuwuwuwuwu~"
Under the silent starry sky, among the swaying shadows of the trees, there were only two small figures hugging each other for warmth, as well as intermittent sobs and a few unclear words.
……
“Gulala… huh?!”
Before the devilish laughter of the old man with white beard could be fully heard, the people who were also hiding in the dark quickly covered his big mouth that was stretched from ear to ear.
After receiving a look from Whitebeard that indicated that they would not laugh anymore, dozens of hands left Whitebeard's mouth.
"What did I say? Naruto, that little bastard, definitely sneaked out and cried, and you still didn't believe it. What about now?!
Give me money, give me money, and be quick with your actions~"
Jiaodu, who was about to make a fortune, grinned even more exaggeratedly than the old man with white beard. He picked up the hem of his clothes and prepared to collect money from everyone.
However, no one present paid any attention to him.
Nagato: "Go away, go away. I won't owe you the money I owe you. Now just shut up and stand aside."
Xiaonan: "Yeah, yeah, don't you see that now is the time for you to collect the money?!"
Kushina: "If you dare to disturb me from watching my son and daughter-in-law again, I will chop you up and feed you to Kurama."
Kurama: (ー ー゛)... Kushina, you fucking... I am a fox, not a dog, you bastard!
Kurotsuchi: "Wow~ Naruto and Hinata's love is so sweet~"
Then Heitu silently turned his head and looked at Xiaodi with resentment in his eyes.
Xiaodi: (′?w?｀) Eat melon, eat melon, eat melon in the front row~
Heitu: ?_?…You’re such a straight guy, there’s no hope for you.
A group of people hid in the dark grass, quietly watching the two little ones showing their love under a tree not far away.
……
After an unknown amount of time, the crying gradually stopped.
Naruto raised his head and looked at Hinata with his red and swollen eyes without blinking.
"...Hinata."
"Well, I'm here."
"Thank you, it's great to have you by my side..."
Hinata closed her eyes shyly, and Naruto's hot lips gradually approached the beauty's fair cheek.
next moment……
Duang! ! !
The frying pan missile hit the target accurately.
"Uzumaki Naruto! Do you dare to kiss my beloved daughter-in-law with that stinky mouth of yours that you just spit on?!"
A group of members of the Akatsuki organization jumped out of the bushes, rubbing their hands and watching Naruto's every move with eager eyes.
Naruto: (°ー°〃)……Σ(っ °Д °;)っ? ! !
"Hinata, Hinata?!"
Kushina: (▼DRAN▼#)! ! !
"Rebellious son! How dare you bully my daughter-in-law until she fainted again... Prepare to die!"
The old mother walked towards Naruto menacingly.
For Naruto, tonight was destined to be another sleepless night.
Hmm... I hope I can find a place to hang Naruto on the big tree at the entrance of the village...
