Time flew by like a white horse. In a year, Naruto had undergone earth-shaking changes. With enough food, Naruto was no longer as short as the old Naruto. The idea was that Naruto was now taller than his neighbors. However, due to long-term cultivation, Naruto's clothes were always worn out very quickly. Moreover, the money left by the third generation was not much, so he could not always buy new clothes to wear. Therefore, Naruto's training clothes were all patched, and Ichiraku Ramen's calamus became Naruto's special tailor, sewing and mending for Naruto.
In the past year, Naruto had made great progress in his cultivation. He had already broken through to the second level of the Spirit-Refining Secrets, and the reiki he cultivated had turned from red to orange. He had also entered the middle stage of the second level. Although he had only entered the middle stage of the second level, both the quality and quantity of reiki had already surpassed the scope of the elite Chuunin. The rewards of hard work were huge. After Naruto broke through to the second level of the Spirit-Refining Secrets, he had a lot of information in his mind. As a soul of Huaxia, Naruto knew that it was the ancient Qi Huang Dan Dao. This made Naruto happy for a long time because he found many rare herbs when he was cultivating in the forest. Because the main medical system of this world had little understanding of the effects of these plants, and the scope of use was very small (only used as a secret medicine for ninjas), this gave Naruto a lot of convenience!
Naruto knew that as a ninja, he couldn't just focus on the amount of chakra, he also had to have good physical skills. Naruto was not interested in the physical skills of this world. Fortunately, Naruto had learned Taiji Fist from an old man. However, the Taiji Fist that Naruto learned was not the kind that only focused on health. It was the Taiji Fist created by Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Wudang. In this year, Naruto had practiced Taiji Fist very well, but there was still a distance to Dacheng. In addition, Naruto also obtained the complete Nine Swords Beyond the Swords from the Heavenly Sword. What surprised Naruto even more was that the sword in his hand was carved with the word "Heavenly Sword" in seal script."Heavenly Sword, Soul-Refining Secrets, Nine Swords Beyond the Swords. The heavens really favor me!"”
Today, Naruto had finally cultivated his swordsmanship in the forest to the level of: He had yet to comprehend the so-called sword intent of the Nine Beyond the Swords, but for the current Naruto, such an achievement was already very monstrous. In a good mood, Naruto planned to have a good meal at Ikura Ramen. Just as Naruto was walking on the street and calculating what to eat today, he heard a voice coming from the corner.
"I say, what's wrong with you!"
"Ah! I'm sorry!" A girl's timid voice sounded.
"Oh! This guy must be from the Sun family!" a boy's voice said.
" Really? Look at her eyes. She must be Ning Ci's cousin," another boy said.
"Definitely."
"This guy's personality is also very bad.”
"She's just a descendant of a famous family and has some talent. What's there to clamor about?"
" I didn't... then..." The person who was surrounded was the eldest daughter of the Hinata family, Hinata. Hinata stammered and was about to leave before she could finish, but her actions angered the three boys who surrounded her.
A boy saw that she was about to run and shouted,"Bastard!" He pulled Hinata back. The other two boys surrounded him and said fiercely,"What a lousy fellow. You want to leave without a formal apology.”As he spoke, he grabbed Hinata's hair and threw her to the ground.
" Whoosh…" A stone came out of nowhere and hit the boy's hand that was grabbing his hair." Hey, I say, there should be a limit to bullying girls!"”It was only then that the four of them realized that there was a boy with golden hair, blue eyes, and a gentle smile standing not far away. He was wearing patched clothes all over his body. Who else could it be but Naruto Uzumaki?
" You..." The boy whose hand was hit threw Shinata aside and rushed straight at Naruto. Naruto looked at the little boy's fist and did not blink. He stretched out his hand and seemingly slowly pulled and pushed to resolve the little boy's attack. When his two companions saw the little boy being pushed to the ground, they also shouted and rushed forward, but the outcome was the same. However, in order to avoid trouble, Naruto knocked on the heads of the three arrogant little guys. The three of them cried and ran away in pain.
"Are you alright?" Naruto walked up to Hinata and extended his hand.
Hinata's face turned red as he stammered,""I…I'm still…alright!" Although she stuttered a little, she still reached out to hold Naruto's hand." It's so warm!”Hinata said while holding Naruto's hand.
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki. What about you?"
"Hinata, Hinata Hyuga!"
"As expected, but Hatata is so cute now!”Naruto thought to himself. At this time, Naruto felt hungry, so he said to Hatata,""Hinata, right? If there's nothing else, how about I treat you to ramen?”
Hinata was at a loss for words at Naruto's sudden invitation. Naruto knew about Hinata's attributes, so he did not care if Hinata agreed or not. He directly pulled Hinata and walked towards Ichiraku Ramen. Hatata's face was flushed the entire way, but the warmth from Naruto's hand made her reluctant to break free.
"Uncle, give me two servings of ramen. I want a big serving!”Naruto shouted at the door before he even walked into the restaurant.
The middle-aged man saw Naruto walking in and said,""Yo, you look energetic, Little Ming Ren. Who is this little girl?”
"This is my new friend, Hinata Hinata.”Naruto introduced.
As expected of the eldest daughter of a large family, her etiquette was very good. She bowed 90 degrees to Hinata and said gently,"My name is Hinata Hinata.”
" Please take care of me," the uncle replied while cooking noodles for Naruto and the others.
"Is Sister Chang Pu not here?" Naruto asked.
"Yes, Chang Pu went to buy condiments today.”As he spoke, the middle-aged man placed two bowls of noodles, one big and one small, in front of Naruto and Hinata. He said,"Come and try it. How does it taste?"
" Naruto, I can't finish this much," Hinata said as she looked at the bowl of noodles in front of her.
"I'm going to eat. Eat, eat, then you can cultivate and become a powerful ninja! Hatata," Naruto said as he focused all his attention on the huge bowl of ramen. Hatata looked at Naruto wolfing down the ramen and felt an appetite. She also followed Naruto's example and attacked the ramen in front of her.
"Ah! I'm so full!" After Naruto finished the ramen in front of him, he sat on the chair and looked at Hinata, who was barely finishing the ramen, and continued,"Hatata, you have to eat more. Otherwise, where would you get the strength to cultivate? Do you know?"
"I know, Naruto." Hinata did not stutter in front of Naruto, which was rare. She had improved.
"We're going back, uncle." Naruto and Hinata walked out of Ichiraku Ramen and saw a man dressed like a ninja standing by the door."Miss Hatada, you're here!”When he saw Naruto beside Hinata, he immediately showed a disgusted expression and said,""Miss Hatata, please do not have any contact with this child.”
" But Naruto is my friend, and today, Naruto…" Before Hinata could finish, Naruto interrupted her and said,""Alright, Hatata, since your family has come to pick you up, I'll go back first. Goodbye.”With that, Naruto walked in the direction of his home.
" Naruto..." Shinata shouted as she watched Naruto leave.
Naruto turned around and gave Hatata a gentle smile. At this time, Naruto's voice rang in Hatata's ears,""Don't worry, we're still friends.”Hearing Naruto's words, Hatata was relieved and said to the person," Let's go back."
" Miss, please don't associate with people like that..." The man kept warning Hinata on the way back, but Hinata was happily immersed in her own world.
"The meaning of 'Hinata' can be translated as 'a place full of sun'. Hinata will definitely be a happy, beautiful, and blissful girl.”On the way back, Naruto recalled Hatata's cute appearance and smiled. As his strength increased, Naruto's original oppressive feeling slowly disappeared, and more and more smiles appeared on his face.
Naruto was still cultivating in his own cultivation place as usual, but every time, he would find medicine and prepared food not far away. Naruto did not need to think to know that Hatata had secretly placed them there."The Hinata family is famous for their physical skills. Should I give Taichi to Hinata?”After much consideration, Naruto decided that it was best not to involve Hatata before he had enough ability to protect himself.
After eating the food that Hatata had sent over, Naruto realized that there seemed to be fewer Dark Group members around him today. In the past, there were always two teams leaving someone behind. Why was there only one team today? Did something happen in the village? Naruto walked into the village with a question.
"Have you heard?" Village Name A asked,
"What is it?" Muramami B said.
"I heard that the envoy from Yunren Village has arrived today!”
At this moment, Naruto remembered that after the Third World War, Kiba was the winner, and Unin Village suffered a lot at the hands of the Kiba Hinata Clan. Therefore, they wanted to study the secrets of White Eyes and kidnapped the eldest daughter of the Hinata clan, Hinata Hinata. However, they did not succeed. The kidnappers were dealt with by Hinata Hinata. Of course, this was done secretly by the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow, and the excuse of the Thunder Country coming to Kiba was to form an alliance. That was why the messenger from Yunren Village had brought up this matter and wanted an explanation from Muye. The branch family's Ri Ri Cha had voluntarily committed suicide at home in order to protect his brother.
"Interesting! Yun Ren actually wanted to touch my future wife. It's just nice to let me test my strength.”Naruto looked at the Naruto Building in the distance and said to himself.
