Naruto no moon

()Chapter 5 Evening Star

Although she seems taciturn, Shino is unexpectedly strong...

The girl sighed like this, and then glanced at the sunset that was about to set.

Shino at the front suddenly stopped, then glanced at the sunset, and calmly said to everyone: "It's already evening, let's set up the tent."

"Got it." Kiba, Hinata and Moto Sakura immediately responded and walked aside to start preparations.

"Hey!" Naruto glanced around blankly, and then said to Shino's back: "Are you ready to set up the tent? I'm not tired at all! Go a little further!"

Shino in front paused for a moment, then turned around and looked at Naruto with his height advantage: "Naruto, I am the leader of this group..."

A drop of cold sweat broke out on Naruto's face, a forced smile appeared, and the corners of his eyes twitched: "I...I know..."

The girl walked past Naruto and left a message lightly: "Naruto-kun, the leader of this group is Shino..."

"Ah, by the way, leave dinner to me..."

"Naruto, the leader of this team is Shino." Kimimaro grabbed the strap of his backpack with both hands, walked past Naruto, and left these words at the same time, and then caught up with the girl in front: "I'm coming down to help you.

.”

Naruto couldn't keep his smile anymore, and his whole face fell down.

"Then, rest." In a short period of time, the tent had been set up, and Kimimaro and Motozakura also came over carrying a lot of dry firewood.

"Do you want to rest now!!!"

"Most animals and plants sleep when the sun sets and wake up when the sun rises. If you want to find insects, you must learn to experience their rhythm of life in person..."

"But...the sun has just set..."

Shino turned around, and a familiar scene happened again, with a compelling momentum and a sinister tone: "Naruto, the leader of this group is..."

"Yes...yes...I know..." This time Naruto was more understanding and sat down with a look of resignation.

The girl suppressed her smile and looked at him seriously: "Naruto..."

"Ahhhh!!!"

The sun still seems to be nostalgic for this world, hanging on the distant mountains for a long time and refusing to sink. Even after several people finished eating, they still had half-red faces.

Naruto put on a nightgown and lay down in the tent, closing his eyes, but he kept complaining: "Really, who can sleep if I have to go to bed so early..."

As he spoke, Naruto fell directly into sleep and snored slightly.

The other six people gathered around him to watch, but Naruto, who was very nervous, seemed not to feel it at all and still slept soundly.

"Although I say this, this guy falls asleep faster than anyone else..." Kiba looked at the sleeping Naruto with a black line on his head, and Akamaru next to him also yelled twice in agreement.

"...It's getting late, let's take a rest." Shino was speechless for a while, then stood up and looked at everyone and said.

Honsakura and Hinata both responded.

Shino turned to look at the girl with a slight apology on his face: "I'm really sorry, Touya-senpai, because we didn't expect you to come, so we only prepared a tent for five people..."

The girl shrugged and said unconcernedly: "It doesn't matter, it's not an important matter anyway. It's also my fault for not telling you the news in advance. I can't blame you. You just need to rest. Jun and I will just keep watch for you all night."

.”

Shino was stunned for a moment: "Vigil...ah, yes, there is also this matter..."

The girl scratched her head and was a little surprised: "Yes, isn't this the most basic? The ninja manual should have said that as a ninja, you must be vigilant at all times and never let down your guard. Didn't you think of it?"

"..." Shino was silent for a moment and pushed up his glasses: "This is my negligence. Teacher Hong used to do this kind of thing. We..."

He was a little embarrassed when he said this, probably because he realized how much care they received from Kurenai as a newly graduated genin.

"Although this is still Konoha's sphere of influence, there are still many ninjas from other countries and wandering ninjas sneaking in. You might encounter them at some point, so it's better to be vigilant..." The girl smiled and stretched out her hand.

He patted Shino on the shoulder and comforted him: "You can rest assured and leave the vigilance matters to us. After all, Jun and I are older, so we should do more things."

Shino paused for a moment, then bowed to the girl: "Then, I'll take care of everything."

After lighting the bonfire, the girl sat down and looked at Kimimaro and said, "Jun, you come and watch for the first half of the night, and you can leave it to me for the rest of the night."

The pure-white young man hesitated for a moment: "I'd rather keep watch for the rest of the night..."

"No, you have just recovered and can do some moderate exercise, but I still take care of this kind of thing." The girl shook her head and said in an unquestionable tone.

Kimimaro opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing and nodded silently.

Night vigils are obviously much easier if you stay up until midnight, because after a period of time you can sleep until dawn. Being woken up in the middle of the night when you are sleeping soundly is the most tiring and energy-consuming.

things.

There was a chirping noise in the tent, and Mozakura's faint voice came out from inside, causing the girl's lips to curl up slightly.

"Oh! Shino-sama's bed! It's filled with Shino-sama's smell! Oh! Honsakura, I, Honsakura, let me warm Shino-sama's cold bed and body on this cold night!"

"...No need, get out of my bed immediately! Also, it's summer now!"

Listening to the strange sound, the girl closed her eyes and sat on a thick branch, leaning against the trunk, and slowly fell into a deep sleep.

The surroundings gradually became quiet, small and gentle breathing came from the tent, and there were occasional chirping of insects all around. The moonlight shed a piece of silver sand, and the breeze blew by, and the rustling of leaves swayed in the woods. Everything seemed extremely quiet...

The girl's body suddenly trembled, and then she slowly opened her eyes a crack.

Looking at the moon in the sky, the girl roughly estimated the time and found that it was already past the time she should be keeping vigil. She turned to look under the tree and found that the pure white boy did not notice her waking up and was quietly staring at the bonfire.

, and fill it with some dry firewood from time to time.

The girl was speechless for a moment. It seemed that if she hadn't woken up, this guy would not have woken her up. Instead, he chose to stay vigil alone until dawn...

He knocked on the tree trunk casually to tell the young man watching at night that he had woken up, then turned over and jumped out of the tree.

Seeing the girl wake up, he seemed a little embarrassed: "Ah, I'm sorry Touya-sama, it's still early, why don't you take a little rest?"

The girl rolled her eyes: "It's still early. It will be dawn in a while. Okay, now I will keep vigil while you go to rest."

"That..." The lie was exposed, making Kimimaro look a little embarrassed: "I'm not too tired..."

It's not easy for Kimimaro, who has always been calm, to show such an uneasy expression. In fact, he only behaves like this when he is alone with a girl, like an ordinary boy.

"Don't refuse. We have to continue traveling tomorrow. It's not okay if you're not in good condition." Seeing that Kimimaro was still hesitant, the girl had to straighten her face: "This is an order!"

Hearing that the girl was using her identity to oppress others, Kimimaro had no choice but to reluctantly walk aside and close his eyes. It was unclear whether he was resting or not.

The conversation between the two was extremely quiet, so they did not disturb the few people in the tent.

The girl sat down next to the bonfire, reached out and picked up a branch on one side and fiddled with the fire to make it more prosperous. It was already late summer and autumn was approaching, so the night was still a bit cold, although the girl's body temperature was higher than

It's much lower than ordinary people, but still feels a little cold.

After a while, the sound of people getting dressed suddenly came from the tent, causing the girl's attention to shift to the tent.

After a while, a smaller body came out of the tent opening. When he saw the girl not far away looking at him, he almost screamed, but in the end he stopped and looked at the girl blankly, revealing a

Awkward smile.

"Good morning, Touya-senpai..."
