Naruto: If I ask you to kill Sasuke, you will become a succubus?

Naruto and I flew in one direction separately, concentrating on searching for the traces of Hanabi's kidnapping.

Although my searching ability is not as good as the Byakugan, I still opened my Sharingan to observe any possible chakra reactions.

"Naruto!" But not long after, Shikamaru called out through the headset: "Ningji found a mark that looks like it was left by Hanabi. Return to the team."

We searched forward in the direction pointed out by Ningci and finally found a cave.

The spring water deep in the cave was glowing, and the white eyes could not see through it to see what was inside, and it would not get the body wet if touched. The word "abnormal" was almost written in the air.

Shikamaru decided that he had to go into the water, and entered the blue-green spring water. He saw a cave that went straight down and was bottomless.

After entering the deep area, there are yellow balls everywhere in the water, like moons.

One of the moons suddenly emitted a dazzling light - just like the light emitted when Uchiha Madara used ninjutsu to bring us into this world -

Is it an illusion?!

Gaara's sand sensed the danger at the same time, and once he sensed the sand's warning, Gaara quickly wrapped all of us in a ball of sand.

--except me.

Someone grabbed my hand and pulled me in another direction.

I turned around and saw a strange boy.

He has short white hair, closed eyes, fair skin and handsome features.

He asked me, "Who are you?"

Only then did I realize that I could actually talk in the water: "Who are you?"

"I'm Otsutsuki Toneri."

Seeing that he seemed to be able to communicate and his attitude was calm, and he didn't look like he was going to attack, I responded, "My name is Zhaolu."

"You have the Sharingan..." The strange boy said something strange, "You are the descendant of the Sage of Six Paths - Otsutsuki Hagoromo. I thought there was only one male left in your lineage... It turns out there is a princess with the Sharingan."

"……what are you saying?"

I felt weird and confused. What princess? From the time I was born till now, I have never had anything to do with this term.

When he said the last male with the Sharingan, was he referring to Sasuke?

"You make me hesitate," Otsutsuki Toneri held my wrist tightly and murmured to himself: "The pure blood of the White Eye Princess is indeed precious... But if I absorb the blood of the Hagoromo lineage, can I gain more powerful power..."

……

Shikamaru realized almost instantly that the trap under the water was an illusion.

But the reason why he didn't untie it immediately was because he saw the girl named Chaolu.

She looked to be only six years old and seemed to have just enrolled in ninja school.

Is this her memory?

If this illusion targets memories, perhaps we can confirm her origins here - whether she was lying about coming from another world.

But he is not the only one in this memory world——

Neji, Naruto, Sakura, Sai, and Gaara are all here.

If he guessed correctly, it seemed to be the person who was just dragged into the sand protection range by Gaara.

Could it be that when people are close enough, their memories and consciousness will merge with each other, so they can appear here together?

Neji was anxiously asking Gaara: "Has Asano come in?"

"No..." Gaara replied, "I couldn't pull her into the sand. But she's the best among us at dealing with genjutsu... I think she'll be fine."

"After all, she has the Sharingan." Sakura followed up and asked, "But whose memory is this?"

"Mine. But it's also Asaro's." Gaara said, "Asaro once opened up all her memories to me. Here are the memories of her that I saw from Asaro."

Sai looked at Shikamaru: "Do you want to remove the illusion?"

Shikamaru thought that if Gaara's sand worked on the same principle as the Kazekage's sand, then as long as they were still protected in the sand ball, they should not be vulnerable to further attacks.

If an attack broke through Gaara's sand, he should be able to know immediately.

As long as Gaara didn't react, they would be safe for the time being.

So... should we take this opportunity to gather intelligence about visitors from another world?

necessary!

After all, who had ever seen someone claiming to be from another world before? This opportunity was too rare.

"Excuse me, Gaara," Shikamaru said, "Do you mind letting us stay in your memory world for a while?"

Gaara crossed his arms, "…What are you expecting to see?"

"See something that will allow us to trust you completely."

Gaara was unconvinced, "As long as there is suspicion, the crime has already been established. If you can't find evidence, I'm afraid you will only be disappointed."

[“You idiot! Chaolu’s grades are much better than yours! Why don’t you study hard with your deskmate!”]

In front of everyone, Teacher Iruka was teaching Naruto a lesson.

The girl opened her dark eyes seriously and said: [But Iruka-sensei... I think he is very good the way he is now. ]

[I think Naruto's shamelessness in being able to take it for granted and act like a spoiled brat when facing the teacher's reprimand even though he made a mistake is really amazing.]

Sakura couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Ahem, sorry, Naruto."

Naruto had a strange expression: "Is she praising me or mocking me?"

But...it turns out that she is actually the same age as me?

Then why can she call him "Naruto-brother" so naturally without any burden!

[Naruto said angrily: "You guy! Do you look down on me?!"

Teacher Iruka was also amused, but he still had to force himself to keep a straight face and use his teacher's authority to drag Naruto away to educate him.

No one knew what Naruto was taught. They could only see the girl quietly watching Naruto and Iruka's backs as they left. Until the classroom door was closed, blocking her sight, she slowly lay down on the table, as if she was in a daze.

The classroom, which was not big in the eyes of the 19-year-old crowd, seemed particularly empty in the eyes of the 6-year-old Chaolu.

She sat there alone, like a seedling in the wilderness, which would wither and break if not cared for.

"I always feel that... Chaolu's personality when she was a child has changed a lot from what she is now?" Sakura expressed her feelings, "She seemed a little dull when she was a child?"

Shikamaru said, "She said that the hospital initially determined that she had lost her memory. If she is in a state of amnesia now, that would explain the dullness and blank feeling."

"But why didn't she leave after school?" Sakura asked in confusion, "Could it be that she has lost her memory and doesn't even have the concept of 'going home after school'?"

"No," Gaara answered, "She is waiting for someone."

Sakura: "Waiting for whom?"

[The setting sun shines through the window onto the desk and also onto the girl lying on the desk.

Her black hair was covered with a layer of golden gauze, and her eyes were reflected in it, making them as clear and bright as amber.

Her long eyelashes cast a shadow in her unfocused eyes. She looked like an exquisite doll that could be placed directly in a window display. She was cute and beautiful, but without a soul.

Until the sound of the back door of the classroom being opened came, the girl's eyes moved, as if the puppet suddenly came to life and was given a soul.

But the visitor did not see the change from death to life, so he did not realize how shocking that moment was.

He just said unhappily: "Why haven't you left yet?"

Sai tilted his head: "Is this the first time that Asaka and Naruto met in another world?"

Shikamaru said, "What's your impression of this, Naruto?"

"I have no clue..." Naruto stared at the scene in front of him. It was obviously very unfamiliar, but because one of the actors was himself, he suddenly had a strange feeling that he seemed to have really experienced it. "But this means that Chaolu didn't lie, right?"

For some reason, Naruto felt happy from the bottom of his heart after confirming that Asakawa could be trusted.

[“I used to know someone who looked a lot like you. He also had blond hair and blue eyes. When I saw you, it was like I saw my family again… I’m sorry.”

"…your family…"

"They're all gone."

"...So you also..." Naruto paused, "Then what are you waiting for me for?"

"I want to stay by your side." The girl looked at him seriously: "I want to protect you when you are in danger."

She smiled and said, "...As long as Naruto doesn't hate me and doesn't avoid me. I want to be with Naruto. If Naruto is willing, I can be your wife. If Naruto is not willing, I can also be your friend."】

Sai said: "Her goal is very clear. From the beginning, was she targeting Naruto?"

"Didn't she say that?" Naruto said immediately, "Because I look a lot like her former family!"

"That is to say, she lost all her memories and only vaguely remembered the image of a family member. After seeing Naruto, she felt that Naruto was similar to her family, so she felt close to him?"

"Why, do you have any objections?" Gaara said coldly: "Naruto is so lucky to be similar to her impression of her family and to attract her attention!"

Sai was silent for a moment: "Is this situation the 'toxic widower' described in the book?"

Naruto recalled the time in his memory and said in a complicated tone: "She was his first friend..."

Neji frowned and looked at Gaara: "She has ever said something like this? To Naruto?"

"That's a thing of the past." Gaara said, "I don't think it's worth worrying about."

"So, where's the evidence?"

The scene changes and freezes on the young Shikamaru.

He stood in front of Chaolu, as if questioning something.

"Eh?"

The girl looked at him blankly, as if she was being bullied without realizing it, which was worrying.

"You said you cared about my evidence."

"Ah I……"

"Right, right? You only have eyes for Naruto."】

Sakura glanced at Shikamaru with a strange expression: "Why does this sentence sound weird..."

Sai said: "It seems that Miss Asaro has a very close relationship with Naruto and Shikamaru in the other world. They must have been friends since childhood."

"Hiss..." Shikamaru muttered to himself: "Things are getting troublesome."
