Chapter 228: Fū's Request: Please Let Me Follow You from Now On!

It was late at night.

Shibuki brought a little girl to Naruto Uzumaki's room.

"Lord Naruto, this is Fū."

Looking at the little girl before him, Naruto Uzumaki beckoned. "Fū, come here."

The girl obediently walked up to Naruto Uzumaki and bowed a little nervously. "Lord Naruto."

"Fū, I called you here because of the Seven-Tails inside you."

Naruto Uzumaki got straight to the point.

"I... I understand."

"Please don't worry. I'll be good and do as I'm told."

There was a tremor in Fū's voice.

"Fū, don't be afraid."

"After I extract the Tailed Beast from your body, I'll bring you back to life."

Seeing Fū's small body trembling, Naruto Uzumaki comforted her gently.

"Lord Naruto Uzumaki, please don't worry. I won't resist."

"You don't have to tell me stories meant to fool a child."

Fū wiped her runny nose and spoke softly.

Bring her back to life, he said...

Did he really think she was three years old?

"Fū, mind what you say!"

Hearing the emotion in Fū's voice, Shibuki immediately warned her.

Naruto Uzumaki

was someone Takigakure could not afford to offend.

If she displeased him, Takigakure might be wiped from the Shinobi World altogether.

"Shibuki, leave us."

Naruto Uzumaki waved Shibuki out of the room, then turned his attention to Fū. "Fū, if you don't believe me, how about we make a bet?"

Fū looked at Naruto Uzumaki in confusion. "A bet?"

"That's right. If I really do bring you back to life, how about you
