Going back in time a little bit...

At that time, when the cat-eared girl had not yet left the village...

I once had a private conversation with Haruno Sakura.

"Sakura, do you have time next?"

"Ah, yes, I would like to ask you..."

"...You don't need to be so polite. Just call me like before. 'Bean Paste Sauce' can also be used, or 'Sister Daizi' can be used, whichever you like."

"... Then, Sister Daizi," the pink-haired girl carefully adopted the same title as her teammates. She looked at the "big man" in front of her with confusion and asked, "What do you want to see me for?" No.

She couldn't be worried, and she couldn't care less. She was also there that day, so she knew very well that the Obito-sama of this world... No, it should be said to be Uchiha Obito, who is still locked up in Konoha Prison at the moment, so it's very special

Unforgivable crime.

although……

The cat-eared girl in front of them has always been kind to them, but people always have a little innate awe for "beings with superior force".

"Well...it's about your future..." Uchiha smiled and suggested, "How about we find a place to sit and talk while drinking tea and eating something?"

"Ah, okay."

So...

Soon after, the two of them sat on a bench outside Ganligan's door, with a plate of red bean cake and a plate of Japanese confectionery placed in the middle, and each had a cup of tea in their hands.

"I'm treating you." Uchiha said with a smile, "Eat as much as you want, if you don't have enough, please order more."

"……OK."

"What? Are you still thinking about losing weight?" Uchiha said half-jokingly.

Haruno Sakura raised her hand and scratched her cheek, and said with embarrassment: "No, I have stopped doing that kind of thing a long time ago." Only after becoming an official ninja did she discover this "little girl's worry"

How unnecessary. A female ninja who does a lot of daily exercise does not need to think about dieting and weight loss. Of course... it is entirely possible for her to gain weight if she still maintains the habit of "eating and drinking" after successfully retiring. She

While saying this, he picked up a fruit and ate it slowly, and asked by the way, "Sister Daizi, I don't know what you mean by 'about my future'..."

"Well, that's it..." Ochiha Uchiha thought for a while and then said, "After the Chunin Examination, Mr. Minato and Uncle Fugaku considered taking little Naruto and little Sasuke out of the village to practice training. That is to say.

, The daily life of Class 7 will probably be temporarily put on hold." The reason why we know this is because both parties have seriously asked the four of them for their opinions on this matter, and they all think that they should go out and see more.

It is a good thing to have a practical understanding of the entire ninja world. Even if it is a dragon living in a small pond, it will always be a baby dragon. Only by swimming happily in the ocean can it grow into what it should have been.

It looks like it’s done.

"...Huh? So sudden?" Haruno Sakura's eyes widened, and the wagashi in her hand almost fell to the ground.

"It's indeed a bit sudden..." Uchiha Ozi replied, "But the possibility of the trip is very high."

"That is to say..." The girl lowered her head and pursed her lips, "I was... left alone...?" Then, she quickly raised her hand and waved hurriedly, "Sorry, Sister Daizi,

I don't mean to complain, I just...just..."

"Don't be nervous." Uchiha stretched out his hand to hold the girl down and comforted the girl softly, "I understand your thoughts and completely understand, because I am also from a three-person team. It is really difficult to be forced to leave the time of the other two people.

Lonely and long..." That's why I want to go back no matter what... In the same way, Rin who was forced to leave and Kakashi who was left behind again and again must feel so painful inside... Fortunately, everything

It's in the past.

The pink-haired girl's eyes instantly overflowed with tears - yes, the time of separation with no end in sight was really lonely and long.

In fact, in fact, she had already had a premonition of this kind of thing.

From the very beginning, she vaguely noticed that Naruto-Sasuke-kun was different from her, but at that time, she wasn't quite sure where this feeling came from.

After accidentally knowing those secrets, she gradually understood——

If Naruto-Sasuke-kun was destined not to be an ordinary person from the beginning, then...

She has been an out-and-out ordinary person from the beginning.

Even if their talents are recognized, even if they form the seventh team together, even if they become teammates for a short time, they may not be able to stay together forever.

And now...

Is it the time of separation?

Although she had already made relevant mental preparations, she really didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.

How long will Naruto and Sasuke-kun be away?

How many months?

One year?

Years?

Or longer?

When they come back again, will they still recognize her as a former teammate? Can their seventh class reunite?

I was left behind...

What should we do?

Following Kakashi-sensei alone?

However, Kakashi-sensei is very busy now because he has taken on the important role of "monitor", right? Does he really still have the energy to take care of her? So, maybe he will be given to other classes?

...People who are forcibly penetrated are very annoying, right?

The girl who was forced to stand at the fork in the road was confused for a moment.

"I should..." She clutched the wagashi with only one bite in her hands and murmured unconsciously, "What should I do..."

Uchiha stared at the people in front of her silently. To be honest, when she agreed to the proposal of Teacher Minato and Uncle Fugaku, she had already foreseen the scene in front of her - as the one left behind, Sakura

It will definitely be painful. But, what can she do? Should she deny the proposal of Teacher Minato and Uncle Fugaku just because of this? Should she forcefully continue the life of Class 7?

And that's for three cubs...

That’s not a good thing, right?

Not to mention, it is also the choice of little Naruto and little Sasuke to go out and have a look. Although they care about their companions, they are also born ninjas - they choose their own lives and keep moving forward with their own beliefs.

OK, on ​​issues of principle, I won’t stop because of anyone.

Just like their ancestors, just like their "previous lives", just like their many predecessors...

However, this does not mean that she can't do anything, so she stretched out four fingers——

"So, Sakura, you have four choices now."

"...Four?" The pink-haired girl raised her head in surprise. As she moved, overflowing tears fell from the corners of her eyes, but she didn't bother to wipe them away. Instead, she looked at the person in front of her longingly, "There are so many

Multiple choices?”

"Of course." Uchiha smiled, and then put away one finger, "First, as you just thought, stay alone in the village and maintain the life of Class 7 alone.

;"

"..."

"The second is to set off with little Naruto's team;"

"The third is to set off with little Sasuke's team;"

"These two options are almost the same, it just depends on who you are willing to travel with. Don't worry about agreeing or disagreeing, I have already said hello to you in advance." Uchiha said this while giving a thumbs up.

He said very reliably, "Don't worry, it will be absolutely fine."

"..." Haruno Sakura suppressed the answer that almost blurted out - not because of the girl's reserve, but because she always felt that it was not the right choice, and asked, "Then... what about the last one?"

"The last one," Uchiha said with a gentle smile, "Your Kakashi-sensei is very optimistic about the talent you have shown so far, and specifically asked Tsunade-sama, who confirmed your talent and said

As long as you are willing, she can accept you as a disciple and teach you how to become an excellent medical ninja. But in contrast, as the fifth generation of Konoha, Lady Tsunade cannot leave the village without permission, so in the future

As a disciple, you must stay in the village during this time."

"..."

"How about it? Which one do you want to choose?"

"Tsunade-sama..." Haruno Sakura whispered, "I am sure...my talent..."

"Um."

"Liar."

"..."

The pink-haired girl sniffed, took a deep breath, and said, "It's probably Kakashi-sensei and Oiko-san, please go ask Tsunade-sama..." Why...do you have to do this for her?

Especially Kakashi-sensei, if she also leaves, wouldn't he be just a disciple? Or, he really wants to live a two-person world with that "heavy criminal"... But think about it carefully.

It's not that the Uchiha men can't understand.

After Uchiha was stunned for a moment, he raised his hand and scratched his cheek: "Well... I can't deny what you said. Indeed, your teacher Kakashi and I went to find Tsunade-sama." There was no result.

Finally, she finally pulled Kakashi together to launch a "gambling terrorist attack" against Tsunade, who claimed that she "didn't want to ask for trouble." During the process, the latter called in her grandfather who was also unlucky and although she didn't deliberately

The second grandfather, who had practiced poker but was indeed unrivaled in the world, was also killed by her and was thrown into disgrace.

In the end, in line with the principle of "willing to accept defeat", Tsunade-sama gritted his teeth and admitted it. At the same time, he asked her for a personal item that he said was to be used as a "good luck prop". This behavior was similar to that of his grandfather's personal belongings.

The act of carrying someone else's statue to be "Goddess of Luck" was so similar that she was unable to complain for a moment.

but--

Putting aside these things——

The most important point is-

"Sakura, do you think you can make Tsunade-sama give in just by asking?"

"..."

"If you are really a mediocre person with no room for teaching, do you think Tsunade-sama would waste her time on you?"

"..."

After hesitating for a moment, Haruno Sakura took a deep breath and asked again: "Is it really okay for me? Please don't lie to me! I want to hear the truth!" Although she wanted to be affirmed, she wanted to get the truth even more.

Uchiha stared at the persistent eyes of the girl in front of him, smiled slightly, and answered honestly: "I don't know, Sakura, I really don't know. Because," she raised her hand, stroked the other person's little head, and lowered her head.

He said loudly, "Your future needs to be created with your hands. Others have no right to affirm or deny. In contrast, Tsunade-sama only agreed to accept you as a disciple and teach you a little bit. However, there is a difference between a disciple and a disciple.

Yes, whether you can only become an ordinary disciple or be a direct disciple, you need to work hard on your own, Sakura." However, she believed that this child would be fine.

"..."

"Ah, by the way, I also got some other benefits for you." Uchiha gave a thumbs up, "Little Naruto and little Sasuke each have so many elders following them, it's not fair that you only have Tsunade-sama next to you.

Yes, so I tried to ask the First Generation and the Second Generation. Anyway, they are both in the village and have nothing to do. They readily agreed and you can ask them for advice on your spiritual practice.

Oh, by the way, the Sandaime in prison said that if you have time to visit him, he is also willing to guide you."

"...What?" The pink-haired girl opened her mouth and her jaw almost dropped.

"Congratulations~Sakura." Uchiha smiled and gave a thumbs up again, "Being able to receive the teachings of four Hokage at the same time is a golden treatment that most people can't ask for! Oh, by the way, although I will follow in the future

Tsunade-sama is studying, but you can also go to Kakashi at any time. Although Obito is not nice to talk to, he is actually quite enthusiastic. If you just call him 'Obito-sensei', he will probably be there on the spot.

Able to 'kneel'." If nothing else happens, the future sixth generation will still be Kakashi, so——

Sakura, you are the woman with the golden finger shining behind you, be confident!

Haruno Sakura: "..." Could it be that I am... the legendary... heroine?

The author has something to say: Yes, you are 233
