In a panic, Uzumaki Naruto hurriedly stood up on the ground, suppressing the pain in his palms, and quickly dusted off the dust on his clothes.

He was already embarrassed enough, but he still wanted to save a little bit of his posture and image as much as possible.

Because this is the first time they have met after more than three years of absence.

"Yo..."

Little Naruto raised his right hand and tried his best to calm down the restlessness in his heart and spoke actively. A trace of blood could still be seen seeping out of his stretched palm.

It was a wound caused when he fell to the ground just now.

However, after Kankan confided something, he suddenly stopped talking.

The hesitation, the worry, and the strangeness that had lasted several years came back crazily in my mind.

He was really not sure whether the young man in front of him, who seemed to be about the same age as him, could still remember him.

Even the name that was about to be spoken became chaotic and blurred.

Obviously this name is what he often said in his many lonely moments, and he secretly made up his mind to become friends with the owner of the name.

perhaps.

Keeping all this in your heart is the best choice for you.

Thinking of this, Uzumaki Naruto's fingers quietly curled up, and his whole body suddenly turned around in an attempt to escape back into the crowd.

Sure enough, it is better to bury such a precious memory deep in my heart.

Anyway, this is my image in the eyes of Konoha residents, being naughty and unpopular.

But at this moment.

"Hey, long time no see, Naruto-kun."

A familiar voice came to my ears.

Suddenly, an inexplicable impact that spanned time and dimensions hit little Jiuwei's heart hard.

He still remembers the day when we first met!

that day,

He said:

'When asking someone for their name, shouldn't you give your own name first?'

And now,

He actually remembers his own name!!

Is this an illusion?

The inexplicable sadness and impact became more intense and real.

"Naruto-kun, are you here to see me off?"

However, the same voice and the same call sounded in my ears again.

he.

Really remember my name!

Uzumaki Naruto suddenly raised his dusty sleeves and wiped his eyes fiercely, then turned around and responded:

"Not before."

"But it is now!"

The blurred name became clear again:

"shortage."

The little guy scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. Originally, he was just bored and came to join in the fun. By the way, Kangkang could use some pranks to attract a wave of attention.

But I never thought that I would meet this person who exists in my memory.

But just when little Naruto revealed the name, a look of shock suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"shortage!"

"Uchiha Ara!"

"You are Uchiha Ara!!"

Naruto Uzumaki's repeated repetition seemed to be an attempt to fit in with a certain message.

And they reunited soon!

It fits perfectly with the terrifying demon spread in the Konoha village, the being who is said to be able to stop children from crying!

"Um."

"it's me."

The young man hummed in reply.

"I heard that you beat up all the ninjas from the Sarutobi clan!"

"Amazing!!"

Aramoto thought that the little guy in front of him would show fear or some other state after remembering his name.

Unexpectedly, he won such unabashed admiration.

But think about it, this little guy is Uzumaki Naruto!

"That's nothing. You can hold them down in the future...you can do it too."

He wanted to be more brutal.

But thinking of the current environment, the elites of the Sarutobi clan have already taken the lead to the eastern border to fight for Konoha.

So he swallowed back the words he had blurted out and replaced them with a more euphemistic wording.

"of course!"

In this regard, Uzumaki Naruto did not show the slightest humility.

"Because, I am the one who wants to become Hokage!"

The little guy puffed up his chest.

"Well, I'm looking forward to the day when your face appears on the Hokage Rock."

The young man echoed.

At the same time, he took a step forward, hid the little guy behind his back and pulled out his right hand.

"But before that, we should also pay attention to treating the wound well."

Huang pulled out a roll of clean gauze from his ninja tool bag and wiped the bruised palm. After cutting off the blood-stained section, he took out another section of gauze and bandaged the bruised right hand.

"No, it's okay, no need to bandage."

"Actually, my wounds heal very quickly, and this small wound is nothing."

Feeling the feeling of being recognized and cared for for the first time, Uzumaki Naruto felt a little dazed, and his vision became blurry again.

Hearing this, the movement of Huang's hand paused for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

"Okay."

"Be careful in the future."

After bandaging the wound, he said this.

As for the piece of gauze stained with the little guy's blood, he naturally put it away without leaving any trace.

In addition to instinctive distress, such behavior is also due to a psychic mission that has been stranded for a long time: [Elegant Man·Demon Fox!]

"Thanks."

Looking down at the bandaged right hand, Uzumaki Naruto whispered.

Perhaps, it's not because his voice is small, but because his voice is a little choked.

Huang was slightly startled by the words of thanks that reached his ears. No matter what he said, no matter what his starting point was, he had finally obtained some benefits from the other party.

"wrong."

"It's me who wants to thank you, Naruto-kun."

He objected.

"?"

Upon hearing this answer, Uzumaki Naruto suddenly raised his cheeks, with silent doubts on his face.

"Thank you for seeing me off and for the Uchiha clan."

Huang naturally cannot tell the truth.

I could only find an excuse.
