Just as Kakashi was in a dilemma, Naruto said,""Teacher Kakashi, I'll carry Xiao Ying for a while. I believe Xiao Ying will be able to adapt to this side effect very quickly.”
Kakashi thought about it and felt that this was the only way.
"Can you keep up with Xiao Ying on your back?" Kakashi asked.
"Don't worry, this caravan isn't moving fast.”Naruto did not care about Sakura's weight at all. He could keep up even if he was carrying a 500-kilogram rock.
Kakashi subconsciously glanced at Chuan Ye. This fat man sitting on the palanquin was indeed not fast enough for four strong men to carry him.
He could even read a small book while traveling.
"Okay, then you guys follow closely."
After saying that, Kakashi returned to the caravan and said to Chuan Ye,"We can go now."
The caravan continued on their journey, only a few kilometers away from their destination.
Naruto carried Sakura on his back and walked at the back of the caravan.
"I'm sorry, Naruto." Sakura, who was lying on Naruto's back, said with some self-blame," It's all my fault for being too weak.”
"It's normal to act like this on my first kill. I even vomited on my first kill.”Naruto comforted Sakura.
With Naruto carrying her, Sakura could clearly see Naruto's handsome side profile.
The handsome side profile coupled with the warm comfort made Xiao Ying blush unconsciously.
"Naruto is really gentle." Xiao Ying subconsciously voiced her thoughts.
"What?" Naruto was stunned for a moment and looked at Sakura in confusion.
"Nothing, nothing, I didn't say anything!”Xiao Ying explained in a panic.
Naruto looked at Sakura suspiciously and did not continue asking.
Sakura heaved a sigh of relief and stared at Naruto's side profile again.
If only I had discovered Naruto's strengths earlier, but Hatata beat me to it.
But even so, I'm still the one on Naruto's back!
Xiao Ying thought contentedly.
Two hours later.
The caravan arrived at their destination.
"Xiao Ying, Xiao Ying?" Naruto called out to Sakura, but there was no response. He turned around and found that she was already asleep on his shoulder.
He had no choice but to carry Xiao Ying on his back.
Kakashi was already bidding farewell to Chuan Ye. The mission requirement was to send him to Black Glow Town.
After arriving at Black Glow Town, they would no longer be responsible for the safety of the caravan.
After a while, Kakashi and Sasuke walked over.
Kakashi saw that Sakura was sleeping, so he decided,""Let's rest in Black Glow Town tonight. We'll return tomorrow.”
He found a hotel in Blacklight Town and booked two rooms.
Why two?
Because Sakura had not woken up, Naruto had no money.
Naruto had used the money he earned from completing missions as food expenses. He could not spend money like accommodation fees.
Furthermore, Kakashi felt that it wasn't safe for the four of them to have their own rooms. After all, this was the border of the Fire Country. It was better to arrange for someone to keep watch at the hotel.
Therefore, they decided to share a room in pairs, Naruto and Sakura in a room, and Kakashi and Sasuke in a room.
There was only one bed in the room, and Xiao Ying had no intention of waking up.
Therefore, after Naruto placed Sakura on the bed, he could only lean against the bed and keep watch.
This lasted until midnight.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Ying woke up from her bed.
When she saw that there was someone by the bed, she almost screamed. Fortunately, Naruto covered her mouth first.
"Shh, I'm Naruto."
"Naruto?" Sakura looked at Naruto with a puzzled expression, as if asking what had happened.
Seeing that Sakura had calmed down, Naruto told Sakura about the completion of the mission and the night watch.
"Oh, I see. Thank you for your hard work, Naruto.”Xiao Ying thanked him.
"Unfortunately, it's hard, but you'll have to suffer for the rest of the night.”Naruto laughed.
"?"
Naruto, who had wanted to sleep for a long time, chased Sakura out of bed to keep watch and went to sleep.
Xiao Ying was speechless.
Although she was speechless at Naruto's straight behavior, Sakura was a little excited to see Naruto sleeping in the middle of the night.
The moonlight outside the window shone on Naruto's face. Accompanied by his even breathing, he was like a sleeping prince, making Sakura's heart flutter and her face turn red.
"Naruto is really good-looking ~"
That night, Sakura, who was supposed to be keeping watch, was immersed in Naruto's face and could not extricate herself.
When Naruto woke up and saw Sakura staring at him in a daze with drool at the corner of her mouth, he was shocked.
"What…what are you doing?"
Xiao Ying quickly wiped her saliva and looked elsewhere. She said,"It's nothing. I'm probably just hungry.”
"Hungry?" Naruto's heart trembled as he looked at Sakura.
Hungry and drooling at me?
This guy wouldn't eat people, right?
Although the original novel didn't mention it, but…who knew?
