Chapter 101 Overlapping Timelines (Please Subscribe, Please Subscribe, Please Recommend, Please Vote, Please Monthly Ticket, Please Reward) (Third Update)

On the eve of leaving the village, the air was filled with a prelude of a storm.

Although only people with a certain status in the village knew about the alliance this time.

But there were still many ninjas who noticed something unusual from some subtle clues.

There were even many people who mistakenly thought that a war was about to break out.

But it was true. If there was really a problem with the alliance plan this time, it was possible that a war would break out directly.

Compared with the worries of others, Ryosuke was very casual.

He had prepared everything that needed to be prepared.

Just waiting to leave the village for the Land of Waves and respond to the situation.

Taking advantage of this time, Ryosuke took Hinata and Hanabi to stroll around the village and give himself a day off.

"Since you are out to play, don't suppress yourself."

"Relax your tense nerves appropriately. Maybe when you relax, you will think of a solution to your troubles."

Ryosuke looked at Hinata, who was holding him with one hand and Hanabi with the other, with some helplessness.

Unfortunately, Hinata is under a lot of pressure now.

Hanabi's matter is like a big stone pressing on her heart, making her unable to relax.

There is no way, Ryosuke can only find something she likes.

For example... eating.

Hanabi seems to have noticed that her sister is in a bad mood recently, and has been following her obediently, and has not been like a child as usual.

Although I know that Hinata likes to eat, what to eat is a century-old problem.

Wandering around the village, Ryosuke is looking for a gourmet restaurant that usually satisfies Hinata.

But seeing that she has always been uninterested, he has to change one after another.

Finally, they stopped in front of a fried food shop.

Looking at the name of the fried food shop and the people coming and going, Hinata's eyes were stunned.

Time seems to have returned to the past, that carefree life.

"Can we eat at this one?" She couldn't help but ask in a soft and sticky voice.

"Yes, yes, I like to eat this."

Finally hearing her sister speak, Hanabi replied happily without hesitation.

However... this time they went out without any guards.

The money, of course, was left with Ryosuke.

Whether or not to eat in this restaurant was also up to him.

Noticing Hinata's expression just now, Ryosuke nodded, "Of course, if you want."

Although he didn't know what had changed in Hinata's heart, that... seemed to be a nostalgic expression.

The last time they came to this restaurant, it seemed to be when they were four years old, that is, he and Hinata had just started training.

His steps were a little impatient, but his expression was still expressionless.

Hinata took the lead and approached the fried food shop.

The atmosphere was quiet, just like four years ago.

No one spoke loudly, but everyone was paying attention to the three children.

What was more surprising was that the child who had bullied Hinata at the time was also enjoying lunch with his father in this restaurant.

But this time, he was not as arrogant as before. When Hinata's cold eyes swept over, he lowered his head in panic and dared not look directly.

It seems... he already knew what Hyuga meant to this village, and understood the gap in strength and status.

"Three adults of Hyuga, what would you like to eat?"

The boss is still the same boss, and his daughter is still helping in this store.

But this time, there was no Hyuga Souji to help order dishes, and Ryosuke had to go forward by himself.

"Bring one of each item on this menu."

He pointed to the menu next to him with one hand, and took out a small bag of silver and put it on the counter.

Unlike regular customers like Souji and Xingcai, Ryosuke had only been here once, and he had no idea what was worth ordering in this store.

So, he ordered one of each item.

He was not afraid of wasting food because Ryosuke and Hinata had a big appetite.

Now that Hanabi has started to practice, and is in the period of growth, she seems to have caught up with the latter in terms of appetite.

"Ah... OK, OK."

At first, the boss was a little confused and didn't understand what he meant.

Then, he nodded quickly, without any suggestion or dissuasion.

"Gardenia, quickly lead the three adults to the innermost private room."

As expected, the girl who led the way was still the same.

Hinata was waiting beside Hanabi, holding her hand. Like last time, she didn't speak the whole time, but her expression was no longer the weak look with her head down.

Instead, she looked straight ahead, looking cold and noble.

Silently following the boss's daughter who led the way, Ryosuke and the others came to the aisle again.

Time and events overlapped again. When they entered the corridor, the diners in the hall heard voices again.

"Is that the eldest daughter of the Hyuga family? She looks just like the rumors, and she is not easy to mess with."

"The glance she gave me just now gave me goosebumps."

"That's not right. She is a Hyuga, the eldest daughter of the largest family in the village."

The discussion about their identities once again reached Ryosuke's ears.

And this time, Hinata was different from before. She had learned the perception ninjutsu and opened the Byakugan. It was not difficult for her to detect these discussions.

Although these words were not compliments, they inexplicably brought a lot of comfort to her heart.

She... had really changed.

"So Ryosuke had already started to protect me at that time?"

Halfway through the meal, Ryosuke suddenly heard Hinata, who was sitting next to Hanabi on the other side of the table, speak.

While she was talking, she kept staring at Ryosuke.

"At that time... you asked Souji and Xingcai to help me pass the message because... they said something bad, right? They said that I... had a cowardly character and was not suitable to be a ninja."

Hinata's tone was very sure.

She had been listening to words like this since she was a child, listening intentionally or unintentionally.

Whether it was people in the clan or outsiders, there were occasional discussions.

Although she would stop talking every time she walked over, she had already heard it in her ears and remembered it in her mind.

But I don't know when, such voices seemed to slowly begin to decrease, they... began to recognize their abilities, and began to think that she was qualified to be the clan leader.

"Little girl, your memory is not bad."

Ryosuke didn't remember it when he heard her question, after all, his mind was filled with too many things.

But soon, he realized what she was talking about.

After hesitating for a moment, although Hinata was very touched in her heart, she just pursed her lips covered with oil and water on the surface, "Thank you."

She was a little embarrassed, as if she had received a lot of favors inadvertently.

"Why thank me? You are my wife." Ryosuke said in a gentle voice, "The seat beside me has always been reserved for you. You said you would stand by my side and face the future with me."
