The bright sky is gradually dimming, and only a trace of the fiery red sun can be seen on the western horizon. The autumn wind is mixed with withered yellow leaves dancing on the streets of Konoha.
Samu Kokaze, who had just watched a good show, was sitting on a chair in his shop, holding a carving knife in his hand and slowly carving on a piece of bright silver metal, waiting for the arrival of Sasuke.
Stab... Stab...
The carving knife scratched the metal and made an unbearable harsh sound.
For Samu Kokaze, who has long been accustomed to all this, it would be a bit unaccustomed to not hear this kind of noise for a day.
Smelling the faint woody fragrance emanating from the room, he flipped his right hand holding the carving knife flexibly and attacked the metal in his hand from various directions.
Looking at the metal sculpture that has been roughly carved, it is no different from the Transformers in the previous life. The cold metal texture and the powerful and domineering appearance are simply unimaginable for a seven or eight-year-old boy.
"Tsk!"
The right hand holding the carving knife suddenly stopped, and he looked up towards the door, frowning slightly.
"Naruto this guy! Is this revenge for me saying he can't make new friends this morning?"
There was a chaotic and noisy sound on the street outside the door. It sounded like nine people, no, there was also the whimpering and barking of a dog.
I don't know how this guy Naruto did it, but he actually attracted all the Konoha 12 except the Tenten, Neji, and Rock Lee from the previous session. What's even more surprising is that among the people he brought, there wasn't even a single unknown bitch. This makes people wonder if there is really any cosmic consciousness in the world.
With a helpless sigh, Nanobugs came out from the long hair on the back, part of it was devouring the metal scraps on the ground, and the other part was doing the final processing and polishing of the unfinished Megatron in its hand.
After all, the guests have already arrived, so no one can see the messy scene in the house. This is intolerable to Samu Kokaze, who has a good reputation.
"The place you mentioned... is this right here?"
Sasuke stood outside the door of Samu Carving Shop. When Naruto led everyone in this direction, he had a faint sense of familiarity. Until now, he was standing here, looking at the unchanged room in front of him, with a hint of memory on his face.
Looking at the plaque above, he couldn't help but think of the time he was ripped off more than a year ago. Even though he later found out that the other party did not charge a high price, but a much lower price than the normal price, that encounter still left a great impression on him.
"Uh..."
Naruto, who walked to the door and was about to ask for Opening Gate, suddenly turned his head, looked at Sasuke suspiciously and asked, "Have you been here before?"
"My brother took me here once when I was little. At that time, I remember Ino, Choji, Shikamaru, you three must be there too!" Sasuke said, turning to look at the three people who had become more indifferent to him since he almost killed Naruto.
"Is there such a thing? Forgot!"
Choji took out a handful of potato chips from the snack bag he always carried, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it hard, making no secret of his dissatisfaction with Sasuke.
Sasuke didn't get the words he wanted and didn't care. He turned his head and glanced at Naruto, and that was what he meant.
Sakura, who had been struggling on the side, saw Sasuke being targeted. Even though he knew that Sasuke had gone too far during the battle, he still couldn't help but stepped forward to help Sasuke smooth things over.
"Feng has become more and more stingy recently. Naruto Are you sure he will give each of you a gift?"
A forced smile appeared on Sakura's face, as if he didn't see the three Shikamaru who looked at him with the eyes of traitors.
"Ha... ha..." Naruto didn't care about this at all, and laughed awkwardly twice, as if to give himself some confidence.
"Don't worry! For the sake of Uncle Naruto, there will definitely be no shortage of gifts!"
Naruto patted his chest and faced Shino, Ya and Hinata assured him, but his obvious lack of confidence made the persuasiveness of his words plummet by several notches.
"I... I don't care!"
Hinata's little face turned red, and a sound like a mosquito rope rang in several people's ears.
Listening to Hinata's words, Ya looked back and forth between Hinata and Naruto, and let out a few bad laughs, which made Hinata's face turn redder.
Ino looked at Hinata who was about to faint, glared hard, and pulled Hinata down behind him.
After hearing Sakura's words outside the door, Samu Kokaze's face turned dark instantly.
Listening to what was going on outside the door, I didn't know how to arrange myself, and I no longer felt like waiting for them to enter the house. I opened the door suddenly, stared at Naruto and Sakura who felt guilty, and showed a hearty smile to the others and invited them into the house.
"Wind! Um... listen to me..."
After everyone walked in, Naruto was left behind with a look of embarrassment. When he thought that tomorrow's training might be specially targeted... no, he would definitely be specially targeted. He just felt that his knees were weak now.
He broke away from Naruto's hand holding his clothes, smiled at everyone in the room and said, "Everyone, let's play first, I'll get you some fruit."
On the way to the storage room, he gave Naruto and Sakura a vicious look and let them experience it for themselves.
After watching Samu Kokaze walk away, Naruto fell into annoyance and complained to Sakura, "It's not like you don't know how small-minded Feng is. Let him hear the bad words you said this time. I don't know how he will torment us tomorrow."
"I... I didn't know he was standing at the door!" Sakura, who was also a little regretful, replied to Naruto.
The two looked at each other and sighed together.
"This smell!"
With Akamaru's teeth on his head, he kept sniffing in the room. This faint herbal aroma that even ordinary people could smell seemed more intense to him, especially because there were several woody aromas that were good for the human body, which made him feel a little better.
"I love this place!"
After sniffing around the room, Yaya said with satisfaction, and Akamaru on top of his head also nodded and whimpered a few times in response.
"Not bad!" Shino, who was less talkative than Sasuke and could act cooler than Sasuke, pushed up the sunglasses on her eyes.
"The bugs in my body also want to build a nest here again."
"Tsk! Shino, can you please stop being such a spoiler!" Hearing the bug, he trembled and took a few steps to the side, putting some distance between himself and Shino.
Shino didn't care about Yi Ya's reaction, raised his hand to adjust the sunglasses on his eyes, and looked at the sculptures placed on the shelves in the room.
The sculptures on the shelves now are different from those when it first opened two years ago. In addition to wooden sculptures, there are also sculptures made of other materials such as metal, stone, jade, etc. placed on it.
"They are all beautiful! This is one of my best skills!" Samu Kokaze, who came back from unknown time, stood behind Shino with a smile.
Shino's body froze, and his pupils under his sunglasses suddenly shrank. He was not aware of the person coming behind him, but a huge uproar arose in his heart.
There was no expression on his face, he turned around and nodded in response.
This is also in line with Shino's character all along.
"Shikamaru!"
Shino walked to Shikamaru and shouted.
"What's wrong, Shino!"
Shikamaru, who was fighting for food with Choji, said without raising his head.
"Is the wind you are talking about very strong?" Shino asked in a low voice.
"How do you know?" The hand that snatched Choji's food paused, then turned around and asked in confusion.
"Nothing." Shino shook his head and said, "He walked behind me just now, but the bugs in my body didn't react at all."
