"Look over there, that man..."
"Is...is that person? I heard that he applied for an investigation mission outside the village, but declined Master Hokage's invitation."
"It looks a bit weird, but it's really handsome!"
Passing through the barrier around Konoha and passing through the defense at the gate, Ryosuke finally returned to Konoha Village.
It can be seen that because of the invasion some time ago, the village's security forces have undergone large-scale adjustments.
Not only has the defensive enchantment technique been strengthened, but even the number of vigilant personnel has also increased.
As for the damaged and collapsed leaves, the reconstruction work has been completed during the year he left.
"The village is back to what it was before..."
Walking on the bustling streets that are completely different from the Land of Rain, Ryosuke's ears are full of discussions.
Although in terms of overall appearance, the one who is getting closer to the Ōtsutsuki clan looks different from ordinary people in appearance.
But against the background of strong strength and clean face, this unusual appearance is no longer a defect, but a rare beauty.
Therefore, he was very flat about the scene before him, as if he had expected it long ago.
"Well, please... are you Hyuga Ryosuke-sama?"
On the way, Ryosuke was stopped by several boys and girls wearing Genin forehead protectors.
The girl who spoke for the head was shy but brave enough to look good, reminding him of his wife whom he hadn't seen for a long time at home.
"Yes, I'm Hyuga Ryosuke."
Although he was stopped from going home, Ryosuke was not angry. After admitting his identity, he asked softly, "What's the matter?"
"I...we are all victims of that disaster some time ago."
Among them, the girl who stopped Ryosuke looked at him eagerly, and said very cautiously, "We have always wanted to find a chance to thank you, but...but you have never been in the village."
"I am honored to meet you here today. We want to treat you to a meal and thank you in person. Is it convenient for you?"
First explained their identities, and then explained the reason for their visit.
She looks quite young, only in her teens, but based on the precociousness of this world, this girl speaks in a very orderly manner and understands the world.
but……
"Sorry, I accept your thanks, but you don't have to eat."
Ryosuke shook his head regretfully, "I haven't been home for a long time, I probably want to stay at home with my family for a while."
"Then after you..."
The girl had a bit of reconciliation on her face, and she planned to say something.
But Ryosuke had already turned around and looked towards the end of the street.
He could feel a familiar aura coming towards him.
Although Ryosuke's white eyes didn't open, he still instinctively sensed her approach.
end of the street,
The woman with a cold face was slowly pacing and approaching. Although her steps were slow and seemingly unhurried, in fact the span between each step was not small, and one big step was almost equal to her usual two small steps.
This woman is wearing a pure white long dress, which tightly wraps her white and tender skin like cream,
A head of smoggy blue hair is scattered casually, and the blue hair dances in the breeze,
The cool-toned hair color makes the already fair complexion a little brighter. Under the clear eyes, the delicately sculpted face is like a princess who came out of the ice and snow castle, noble and glamorous.
Staring straight ahead with no expression on his face, Hinata slowly approached with an air of being defiant and not letting strangers in.
"Grow up and become beautiful."
Jing Jing watched her approaching step by step, and finally stopped in front of her. The gentle smile on Ryosuke's face became more and more intense, and it looked bright and eye-catching under the sun.
Its gentle to the ultimate voice even made the few people next to me feel goosebumps for no reason.
But hearing it in Hinata's ears is full of healing power.
"I didn't expect that one day I would hear praise from you, a cultivator, other than praising my strength."
Resisting the thought of rushing forward in his heart, Hinata responded lukewarmly, and nodded politely towards the Genins standing beside him.
"Cough... Master Ryosuke, then we won't bother you."
But the few people who were planning to talk to each other suddenly lost their courage, and the cold breath emanating from the little Patriarch Hyuga made them say hello and leave tactfully.
First watching them leave, Ryosuke looked around again.
Facing the pedestrians who secretly looked at them from time to time, he smiled helplessly, "Let's go back and talk about it."
On the way home, Ryosuke had imagined many times what it would be like to see his family again after not seeing them for so long.
But in the end, when he saw Hinata for the first time, he was surprised by her greatly changed face.
Those gentle greetings didn't come out, but they unconsciously said the words of praise in their hearts very straightforwardly.
But it seems...
It seems that the effect of this compliment is much more pleasant to Hinata than other greetings.
"Um."
Still looking dignified, Hinata just hummed slightly from his nose, but still stood still.
"Then shall we go home?"
Seeing that she didn't take a step, Ryosuke seemed to think of something in his heart, and stretched out his palm in front of her dotingly.
Then, when her little cold hand consciously placed on his broad palm, she couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you doing!"
The whole paragraph collapsed, and a slight blush appeared on Hinata's fair cheeks.
The eyes that seemed a little indifferent from the moment we met suddenly became lively, with a hint of irritation.
"Let's go."
Ryosuke didn't continue to tease her any more, he gently pulled her and walked in the direction she came from before.
But before he took a few more steps, another extremely loud and joyous voice sounded from behind.
"Ryosuke! You're back!"
The sound came from far to near, and the sound of breaking the sky sounded from the top of the house.
Then a black shadow leaped high and across the sky.
In the end, it landed steadily in front of Ryosuke and Hinata without stirring up any dust.
"Long time no see, Ryosuke!"
Observing Ryosuke excitedly, the beast instinct brought by Nine Tails made Naruto notice that his breath was more terrifying than before, "It feels so dangerous, you have changed so much, it should be a very hard work Let's practice!"
The active and expectant look changed from the usual calmness.
But soon, his smile froze.
Looking at the palms held by the two in front of him, Naruto scratched his head in embarrassment, "Well...how about I go find you tomorrow, and I won't bother you now."
"Tomorrow, see you at the old place."
Smiling Kaidō, Ryosuke also looked up at Naruto in front of him.
Its control of Chakra is extremely precise when it lands, and its ability has improved to a higher level.
Under the observation of translucent eyes, the amount of Chakra in his body that even Ryosuke is a little envious of has skyrocketed again. The tailed beast Chakra in the center of the seal is different from the posture that completely suppressed Naruto's own Chakra. Instead, it forms two tigers with the Chakra in his body competing situation.
It seems that this guy has not been lazy this year and has become stronger again.
"Then see you tomorrow."
There was anticipation in the tone, Naruto also smiled at Kaidō, and nodded to Hinata next to him.
And Hinata also politely returned the gift.
Waving goodbye to Naruto, Ryosuke resumed his steps.
Beside him, Hinata silently followed, she didn't talk much to Naruto just now, she just greeted him briefly.
Ryosuke didn't notice her silence.
In his heart, he had some hope that Naruto would catch up with him. As one of the few friends who recognized him, his perception of Naruto was quite different.
But soon, feeling the tightness of the little hand in the palm, Ryosuke looked at Hinata with some doubts.
"How do I feel... You are happier seeing him than seeing me."
Staring straight ahead with no expression on his face, Hinata said without turning his head, "When you stay in that "old place", you should have a good time."
"How can..."
Ryosuke was a little overwhelmed by her sour tone, "Did I do something wrong..."
A little helpless, even a little strange.
He seems to be able to keep up with Hinata's train of thought, but he doesn't seem to be able to.
Could it be that Ino guy taught her something weird again...
Ryosuke cursed inwardly, thinking whether to advise Hinata to stay away from that colored guy, so as not to become that kind of woman who sees people with rotten eyes in the future.
"... Forget it, let's go home quickly."
Hinata was silent for a long time, and finally gave up the strange idea in her heart.
She didn't speak any more, and Ryosuke didn't ask about recent things on the street.
The two walked side by side,
Although Ryosuke has surpassed the average height line of Konoha Village in height because of the transformation again and again.
And because of the practice of Marine Six Styles, the body must be stronger than ordinary people.
But the petite Hinata stood next to him, but there was no sense of disobedience. On the contrary, the two stood together with a very harmonious and contrasting beauty.
"I'm back, I'm back, my sister and Ryosuke are back."
From afar, Ryosuke could see Hyuga Hiashi and Hanabi waiting for them at the clan gate.
And behind him, many members of the Hyuga clan stopped at the same time, also wanting to meet the first person of Hyuga in thousands of years.
"came back?"
Hyuga Hiashi spoke in a calm voice with a hint of concern.
"Yeah! I'm back!"
The emotions in Ryosuke's heart were unconsciously transmitted to his hands, and the wide palm completely wrapped the smooth little hand, holding it tightly.
He stepped in front of Hyuga Hiashi, and standing opposite him was a mass of black clansmen with the same skin color as him and the same blood.
"I'm back, my home, and... my family!"
"Ryosuke, you don't know how weird your sister is when you're not around."
At the dinner table of Hyuga's house, the long-lost ushered in the excitement.
The family of four sat in their own seats as before, but it was rare, and they did not abide by the habit of eating silently.
"After finishing her own work every day, she sits in her room and looks in the mirror. What do you think she is doing?"
After coming back this time, little Hanabi has become more cheerful and lively, complaining to Ryosuke while eating.
"Are you putting on makeup?"
Amusedly, he put his eyes on Hinata, Ryosuke looked at the face that was as delicate as a work of art, and already had the answer.
The white and clean face is like the best picture scroll in the world.
On this picture scroll, its already exquisite facial features have been carved and polished one by one,
After being outlined, the curved eyebrows like willow leaves faded from their original gracefulness and softness, appearing somewhat heroic.
Coupled with her clear eyes with light eyeliner, the image of a cold beauty with both coolness and heroism is perfectly presented.
And those pink lips with a touch of sparkle are like a stroke of magic, drawing the coda for this picture scroll.
"That's right, at first she painted herself like a ghost, but after sister Ino and the others came to visit her home, her makeup skills gradually improved."
Hanabi smiled mischievously, "And my sister was thin-skinned at the beginning, and she didn't dare to wear makeup on the street. Every time, she would secretly draw pictures for herself in the room. Later, sister Ino said..."
"Hanabi!"
Before he finished speaking, Hinata, who had been eating silently with a blushing face, couldn't help interjecting, trying to interrupt his voice.
But unfortunately, Hanabi was not afraid of her at all, he stretched out his fingers to pretend to be Ino, and imitated her tone, "You can only make yourself satisfied if you make up for yourself."
"And if you can get most people on the street to stop for you, then no matter how high-minded Ryosuke is, he will bow down under your white skirt, unless he is a masculinity..."
Speaking of this, her eyes suddenly became strange again, and she looked at Ryosuke with a slight sense of exploration, "Well... Ryosuke, you should think that the current sister is very good-looking."
Ryosuke's smile froze on his face.
Ino...
Before he could explain something, Hanabi on the opposite side paused and added: "At least he must be better-looking than that guy Uzumaki Naruto!"
puff--
With a sulking breath stuck in his chest, Ryosuke didn't know what mood he should use to face this question at this moment.
"cough!"
At this moment, even Hyuga Hiashi, who was sitting on the main seat, couldn't stand listening anymore, and coughed heavily.
"Eat quietly!"
He glared at Hanabi first, and after seeing her silence, he looked at Ryosuke with a serious face, "How is it, did you go out well this time? Did you find the answer you want?"
Reluctantly glanced at Hinata, who was buried in her meal, but she was actually smiling, Ryosuke nodded, "It's been very fruitful, many things have been answered, and I should stay at home to digest and digest for a while."
But after thinking for a while, he added again: "However, during this trip, I met an incredible guy. This intelligence news may need to be synchronized with you, and even...you need to be synchronized with Konoha's people."
Because Ryosuke didn't explain the purpose of his trip too much, he just said that he wanted to go out to find answers to some questions in his heart, so Hyuga Hiashi didn't know what he did.
However, by taking this opportunity, he could reveal some information that he knew before but had no reason to say.
"After dinner, let's talk in the study first."
For such a scene, Hyuga Hiashi has long been used to it.
Since Ryosuke came to their family, the study room is no longer his domain.
