Naruto: I open a pet shop in the Ninja world.

Some gossip about the Nine-Tails' rampage has already reached the ears of the Uchiha.

The relationship between Konoha and Uchiha has begun to show signs of rift.

The Uchiha's pride will not be allowed to be trampled upon.

Shisui could predict that it was only a matter of time before the Uchiha and Konoha would become enemies.

As an Uchiha, he couldn't turn a blind eye.

The only person Shishui didn't want to get involved in this mess was Chi Qing.

"I don't mind." Chi Qing said firmly.

"But I mind!" Shisui was a little out of control at this time.

No matter how powerful he is, Shisui is still just a child under twelve years old.

Even Shisui, who is known as a genius, has times when he feels confused and at a loss.

Chi Qing reached out and hugged Shisui: "Listen, Uchiha Shisui, you are my Chi Qing's recognized close friend. It has nothing to do with Uchiha. Even if you become Hyuga Shisui, our relationship will not be affected in any way."

"..." The body temperature transmitted through the clothes calmed Shisui down: "What... I don't have the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan."

Chi Qing's words woke Zhishui up, and he realized that he was indeed being too stubborn.

Chi Qing patted Zhishui's back and released his hand: "Let's sit down and have a good chat before dawn. We haven't relaxed and chatted like this for a long time."

The two young boys should have still been studying in school, but they graduated early because of their outstanding abilities.

Later, because of the coming of war, he went to the battlefield early.

Chi Qing talked about the interesting things that happened when he and Jiraiya went out for training.

Shisui told Chi Qing about the restoration of Konoha in the months since he fell into a coma.

And the funeral of the Fourth Hokage and his wife ended before he could even wake up...

Speaking of the sacrifice of the Fourth Hokage, Shisui looked at Chi Qing with some concern: "Are you okay?"

The Yondaime and his wife were Chi Qing's only relatives, but now they are both dead, so Chi Qing wanted to snatch away Naruto who sealed the Nine-Tails despite any obstruction.

"What?" Chi Qing didn't react at first to what Shisui was referring to. After all, in his eyes, Minato and Shinaju were not dead yet.

"It's okay. What are your plans next?" Shisui changed the subject.

"Yes, the main reason I wanted to see you today is to talk to you about this." Because he had been waiting for too long and had just faced Shishui's gaffe, Chi Qing almost forgot.

"..." Knowing that Chi Qing almost forgot something important, Shisui was speechless. After all, it might be his responsibility that he forgot.

"The punishment for the 'mistake' made two days ago has arrived." After taking a sip of soda, Chi Qing continued to talk about the mission under Shisui's urging gaze.

"The Third Master has assigned me ten personal missions, and I won't be back in a short time." Chi Qing scratched his hair in distress.

“…When do we set off?” As smart as Shisui was, he immediately guessed the Sandaime’s intention.

Push Chi Qing away and fade out of everyone's sight for a short period of time.

He believed that these ten tasks must be of high quality.

"We'll set off tomorrow night. There's something more important to tell you. It seems like you're the only person I can ask for help, Shisui." Chi Qing said with a pleading look.

Because he was asking someone to do something, Chi Qing subconsciously softened his tone.

"What is it?" Shisui said seriously, "I will help you as long as I can."

This was the first time Chi Qing asked him for help in all the time they had known each other.

"It's like this, can you visit Naruto on my behalf when you are free? Just make sure he is in good health." Chi Qing clasped his hands together.
