Naruto Bloodline Theory? It's Just Garbage

Mingren offered kind advice.

Then he fed Naruko water again, making her drink even more.

By accident...

She drank until she was bloated, her stomach swelling up.

Her slender waist now stretched her clothes taut.

Anyone who did not know better might have thought she was pregnant.

"Uwah~!"

After drinking the water, Naruko panted heavily like someone who had fallen into the water.

Soon, she began dry-heaving violently.

Yet after retching for a long time, she did not throw up anything.

After all, wasting water was bad.

Mingren had naturally anticipated this and found a way to ensure that the water Naruko drank could not be vomited back up.

That was all.

"Alright, see you next time when I have the time."

Mingren gazed at Naruko, who was sitting with her legs tucked to one side, and spoke.

They found Naruko at the entrance to Mount Myōboku.

"Naruko!"

Sasuke immediately rushed over.

Naruko's steps were unsteady, and she looked mentally drained.

"Are... are you alright?"

"I-I'm fine..." Naruko forced out a smile uglier than crying.

Clearly, she was suppressing the pain in her heart.

"Naruko, that guy... he didn't do anything to you, did he?" Sasuke immediately asked with concern.

At that question, Naruko, who had been hanging her head, widened her eyes.

It was as though some critical phrase had been triggered.

Tears immediately streamed down Naruko's face, and she began to cry.

"Naruko... what happened? Tell me, what exactly happened..." Sasuke shook Naruko by the shoulders, frantic with worry.

But Naruko only kept her head lowered and cried...
