It's not that Naruto is detached from worldly desires, nor that he has a particularly good conscience; it's just his personality.

Even if he knew that if he continued, he would most likely be able to take Ino home and take advantage of her, Ino's lack of awareness didn't mean he was also out of his mind.

Six years have passed, there's no rush.

Ino was special to him, and someone he was proud of. He just hoped that the girl in the flower shop could maintain her pride and always have the upper hand.

Whether it's mist or drifting clouds, don't go near her.

Seeing that Ino had sobered up considerably, he decided to help her slowly and leisurely walk home. Ino was still savoring the kiss, and her breathing was a little erratic.

After feeling comfortable for a while, it felt like I had been bullied. But then I realized that it was probably my own request, and I blushed immediately after realizing that.

She lowered her head, as if she had really approached him herself.

But I was drunk, I must have been drunk, but... actually, I was still conscious even when I was drunk. I just didn't dare say it normally, and now... it's even more embarrassing.

Why did I sober up so early?! The book clearly says that when you're drunk, you open your eyes and it's already the next day.

No, that's not right. She should have already done those things that only adults do on the second day after she opened her eyes. But she was also a little conflicted because she had heard that doing those things would most likely result in having a baby.

Thinking of this, Ino secretly glanced at him and mustered up her courage to ask.

Do you want to have children?

"Huh? What?" Naruto assumed she was drunk, and after hearing her clearly, he replied dismissively, "Yeah, have five."

"Ah! Isn't that too much?" Ino's face turned pale upon hearing this.

"Then let's have one," Naruto casually, not really caring.

She just kissed me and she's already thinking about having a baby. She must be drunk. Is her alcohol tolerance that low? As for the future child... Ugh, how did I get caught up in this myself?

"Wouldn't one be too few?" Ino asked seriously.

The two walked home, the cold wind whistling.

"That's not right. What do you mean one is too few?" He thought Ino was drunk and talking nonsense. "If there are too many children, love will be spread out. For example, in your family, is there only one child, or is it your uncle..."

"You! You're not allowed to talk about my father!" Ino pinched him, probably because she was drunk and didn't have much strength. Her hand on his waist was warm and soft, almost like a caress.

"Okay, I won't say. I respect my uncle the most. I'll give him some of whatever he likes later." He half-heartedly brushed it off and led Ino home.

When Ino was drunk, she became somewhat willful. Sometimes she would refuse to walk and had to be carried all the way back. In the freezing cold, he watched Ino standing at the entrance of the flower shop, taking out her keys to open the door.

Seeing her poking at the key for a long time, muttering something unintelligible, I leaned closer to listen and realized that she was seeing things.

"When did my mother secretly change the door locks behind my back?"

"Fine, I'll do it." Naruto was a little speechless. He reached behind her and snatched the key, then wrapped his arms around her and reached over her shoulder to open the door.

The clothes rubbed against Ino's neck, and through the thin sweatshirt, you could feel the heat emanating from her neck.

Having been used to opening doors, he flicked his long, slender fingers and held the key in his hand. With a casual shake, he pushed it directly into the keyhole.

The continuous sound of metal teeth snapping together was unusually loud in the quiet night, and at that moment Ino couldn't stay still and made a "hmm" sound through her nose.

Naruto's hand trembled, and he abruptly looked down at Ino. He thought to himself, "Inoichi Yamanaka might be listening upstairs right now. You're trying to get me killed!"

Fortunately, Ino quickly stopped moving, opened the door, and went inside, still slightly tipsy. Just before closing the door, she turned back, her face clearly flushed with intoxication, and looked at him with a grin, saying...

"You're amazing!"

"Holy crap." Naruto almost jumped out of his skin, feeling a chill on his neck.

Could it be that my father-in-law is really spying on me? Will he use Ninjutsu on me as soon as Ino goes upstairs? Damn it! Wine and women are no good!

From today onwards, I still need to abstain from alcohol.

Hearing Ino go upstairs, he habitually stood downstairs for a few minutes. A moment later, a window on the second floor was suddenly pushed open, Ino, drunk, waved at him.

The next day.

After waking up, Naruto went downstairs for a stroll and had lunch. He paused for a moment as he passed Takoyaki stall.

Suddenly remembering that I have a dog at home, I stopped and thought for a moment before obediently standing in line again. I planned to buy one for Nine-Tails while I was at it, since I might need it sometime in the future.

While waiting in line, I happened to see Hinata carefully walking by with her hands clasped in her hands, and I immediately perked up. I called out to Hinata from afar and waved Hinata over.

"Naruto, you're back?" she asked softly, too shy to look away.

As an adult Hinata grew her hair long, had a slender figure, and skin as smooth as jade. She didn't grow much taller, but her imposing presence became even stronger in a certain way.

However, she remains as gentle as ever. When looking at someone, she can't focus her gaze for more than three seconds, and she blushes easily.

She walks with her head down, back hunched, and chest slouching. I really wonder how she sees where she's going. She can't even see her toes. No wonder a ninja like her falls down Tenten.

Fortunately, he was already used to Hinata's actions and didn't take it to heart. Instead, he was curious about what Hinata was doing with such a worried look on her face.

"Huh? Oh right, I... I still have a mission!" Hinata said, her face flushed and confused. "Naruto, I have to go now."

"Task?"

Logically speaking, even if he was a high-ranking official, he didn't have the right to inquire about the mission details. So, he politely skipped the topic and nodded.

"Then be careful."

After saying that, he pulled her over and, standing in the long line of more than a dozen people, tidied her hair in front of her forehead.

Naruto seemed a little embarrassed, but Naruto, Hinata a seasoned veteran, remained calm and indifferent under the gazes of more than a dozen people.

"Okay, go ahead."

After she left, Naruto also received his Takoyaki. On the way, he saw Leading Jonin Team Eight, walking absentmindedly, and stopped in his tracks.

"Strange, why are all the Team Eight acting so strangely? They all seem preoccupied. Are they going to fight Uchiha Madara?"

"With his wife like this, doesn't Asuma even ask about her? He doesn't even know if Mirai Sarutobi. Is Old Ma still at home taking care of his daughter?"

After standing at the crossroads lost in thought for a while, he finally came to the conclusion that he shouldn't meddle in other people's business. Then, he happily went home with his Takoyaki.

In the living room, Kurama (the Nine-Tails) was slowly eating Takoyaki, while Naruto lay on the sofa, absentmindedly flipping through the manga he'd swiped from Tsunade. Hmm, a ninja's mission?

Hmm? Interesting. Taking on the tutelage of a female ninja. The dialogue is quite daring, borderline reading material. Seriously... what kind of person would read this kind of comic?

Half an hour later.

Naruto: "."

The cover art is so vulgar, but it's really a ninja's mission? Seriously! What happened to the master's orders? The result is becoming the number one ninja in the Shinobi World?

Damn it!

He tossed the comic book aside, suddenly becoming quite angry. "Pants down, looking at this?"

One minute, two minutes, three minutes later, Naruto, who was lying on the sofa, suddenly got up, walked to the comic book on the floor, bent down and picked it up.

First, he carefully removed the book cover, then put the adapted manga of "Make-Out Paradise" on it. Only after doing all this did he go to sleep, satisfied.

"Naruto Uzumaki, wake up."

When she woke up again, Uzuki Yugao, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, was standing next to the sofa, wearing an animal mask and the clothes of the Hokage's direct Anbu.

"Where did you come in from?" he asked, rubbing his eyes.

"The balcony." Uzuki Yugao removed her mask, speaking succinctly.

"It's not a big deal now, but I still hope you'll use the door next time." Naruto leaned back on the sofa. "I'm an adult now, and I sometimes do things like that, you should understand."

"I understand." Uzuki Yugao blushed slightly, but quickly suppressed it. "Lord Tsunade is looking for you. Go to the Hokage Building."

Hokage Building.

When Naruto pushed open the door carrying the manga, Tsunade wasn't there. The desk was piled high with official documents, and a weary Kakashi was resting on it.

"Naruto, I have a mission for you," he said.

"Kakashi-sensei? It's you. Where's Lord Tsunade?" Naruto asked, somewhat surprised.

"Lord Tsunade," Kakashi said, his eyes swirling with dark circles and a deep sense of resentment, "She's busy. She's probably drinking somewhere right now."

Upon hearing this, Naruto glanced at the table beside him, where only a few comic books lay in the drawer. He silently tossed the comic book he was holding into the drawer as well, and asked without making a sound.

"Sixth Hokage, what's the mission?"

"Don't call me the Sixth Hokage." Kakashi said with dead fish eyes, "I'm starting to regret agreeing to Lord Tsunade. I'm a bit overwhelmed right now."

Kakashi coughed and said.

"The Jonin who is in charge of Team Eight has encountered some trouble. There are no suitable people in the village at the moment. Lord Tsunade recommends that you go and provide assistance."

"Hmm? What's wrong with Teacher Kurenai?" he asked.

"Is everything alright for now? It seems we've run into some tricky issues. This mission originally belonged to Team Eight," Kakashi said calmly, flipping through the documents.

"However, the mission seems to be progressing with some difficulties. The details are all in this file; you'll understand once you read it."

Naruto took the file printed with ink, glanced at it briefly, and then fixed his gaze on the name at the beginning of the line.

"Yakumo Kurama?" He looked up.

"Hmm, that child's mental state is a bit unstable." Kakashi said lazily, his fingers interlaced on the table. "The Kurama Clan has always been famous for its Genjutsu, and now there are only a few left."

"This is a report about Yakumo Kurama that Kurenai issued ten years ago. Take a look." Kakashi specially pulled out an old file and handed it to Naruto.

He took it and read it carefully several times before finally understanding the ins and outs of the Yakumo Kurama incident. It was largely consistent with the original plot, the only difference being that the timeline was postponed.

However, the fact that Yakumo Kurama could make no progress on the mission of the adult Team Eight suggests that he is no longer the Ninja World Lin Daiyu who nurtured her Inner Demon.

However, he didn't seem to care; he figured the problem probably lay with the Genjutsu. Yakumo Kurama's Kekkei Genkai Genjutsu was a little bit overpowered; its effect was to control a person's five senses, and injuries sustained within the Genjutsu would actually exist in the real world.

The so-called powerful Genjutsu technique defies the heavens because it interferes with reality, as if the Ninja World Lin Daiyu had taken Ma Liang's Magic Brush and drawn a Tsukuyomi World.

The sealed archives record Lin Daiyu... and the ill-fated relationship between Yakumo Kurama and Kurenai Yuhi.

Ten years ago, Shirakumo Kurama was a genius little girl, the hope that the Kurama Clan had waited decades for to revitalize the entire clan. Unfortunately, she was born with a fragile Lin Daiyu, barely able to walk. To make matters worse, her parents were extremely demanding, and Yakumo Kurama discovered amidst their boundless expectations that her body was not suited for being a ninja.

It's like Lin Daiyu transmigrating into Lin Pingzhi, only to find that her body is incompatible with the martial arts she's practicing. In a fit of rage, she suffers a qi deviation and transforms into Evil Sword Immortal, wreaking havoc in all directions—that's an abstract concept.

The Inner Demon she raised, Ido, is the embodiment of Yakumo Kurama's evil thoughts, and it will emerge whenever she goes mad. Her parents also died in Ido's unexpected loss of control, dying at the hands of her own Inner Demon.

However, Yakumo Kurama blocked out this memory through her brain's self-protection mechanism, mistakenly believing that the Third Hokage had sent people to kill her parents.

Kurenai Yuhi was originally just her tutor ten years ago. Later, seeing that her student had gone mad, she was ordered by the Third Hokage to seal away the Inner Demon Ido.

Perhaps because Kurenai Yuhi didn't slack off and did her job well, Ido, who should have broken through the seal in two or three years, has been delayed until now.

The current situation isn't too chaotic if you sort it out a bit, overall.

The ten-year period has ended, and the Evil Sword Immortal Ido, is about to return to his throne. The slightly mature young woman, Kurenai Yuhi, is caught in the middle, burdened by a secret she cannot tell her husband.

Naruto looked away from the file, raised his eyebrows, and thought to himself that dealing with a little girl shouldn't be a problem.

If we act quickly, we can complete the task in a day, and it won't interfere with the schedule we made with Ino's grandmother the day after tomorrow.

"Oh, I understand." He returned the file and left the Hokage Building.

At Konoha Hospital, he found Kiba Inuzuka recovering from his injuries. Seeing Kiba Inuzuka wrapped in bandages, Naruto was immediately reminded of the incident that happened to the Inuzuka Clan two years prior.

It was probably related to the White Zetsu invading the village disguised Kiba Inuzuka. He was busy at the time and didn't pay much attention to the follow-up, only knowing that Tsunade sent the Anbu to handle it. In order to prevent the Inuzuka Clan of the Hokage lineage from being held accountable by the higher-ups, he took some measures to suppress the matter and quickly destroyed all traces.

"Is he dead?" Naruto gently kicked Kiba Inuzuka's bedside, looking impatient.

"What are you doing?" Kiba Inuzuka.

"Nothing much. I just heard you got sent to the hospital by a little girl, so I came to make fun of you," Naruto said cheekily.

"You're sick," Kiba Inuzuka muttered, "If you're so good, why don't you do it yourself?"

"I'll go, I'll go." Naruto revealed his true intentions. "Where are Hinata and the others?"
