Chapter 437 I care more about you
Chapter 437 I care more about you
The Land of Fire.
The Karin team is camping by a stream.
Hinata was in charge of guarding the area, Karin was in charge of setting up a warning barrier, while Sasuke and Naruto were grilling fish.
The forests of the Land of Fire are rich in resources, and there are other kinds of prey, but fish is easy to cook and meat is easy to cook.
Their first choice is grilled fish.
In front of a large bonfire, no fewer than twenty fish were lined up and roasting together.
With so many fish, Naruto and Sasuke managed to grill them together without getting flustered.
"How can Karin eat so much?" Sasuke muttered to himself, his face full of helplessness.
If he resisted even slightly, Karin would say, "It's up to you, Senior Sister."
The reason so many fish were grilled this time was at Karin's request.
Naruto was in high spirits, after all, he hadn't been out on missions or eaten grilled fish for a while.
In the past, if I grilled fish, the Third Hokage would steal it.
Even though we have plenty of food and drink now, I still crave fish.
Moreover, you can grill fish for Hinata to eat...
hey-hey……
Naruto smiled, completely ignoring Sasuke's complaints.
Sasuke looked up and saw Naruto grinning foolishly.
"...Naruto,...Naruto!"
"Ah! Sasuke, what did you say?" Naruto suddenly woke up with a start.
Sasuke rolled his eyes: "I mean, are we going to finish all this?"
Naruto, as if struck by a sudden thought, gave a mysterious smile: "Don't worry, I'll definitely finish it."
"Hahaha, with me here, how could we not finish eating?" Karin, who had already set up the formation, flashed to the side of the fire.
Naruto ignored Karin, his eyes only fixed on Hinata following behind him.
He quickly waved to Hinata, "Hinata, come here quickly, the fish is ready."
Hinata blushed slightly, but she had gotten used to being with Naruto these past few days, so she sat down next to him.
Karin pulled out a perfectly roasted strip from the fire and took a bite.
"Crunch..." The fish tail was crispy and fragrant.
"Hmm... Naruto, your grilled fish is pretty good."
Naruto said smugly upon hearing this:
"Of course, I've baked them many times."
He's right. He used to be someone who was neither full nor starving.
They could only catch fish to grill year-round, barely enough to fill their stomachs.
Over the years, they have accumulated a wealth of experience.
Moreover, we now have not only salt, but also various spices brought by Xianglin, so the taste is naturally not bad.
"Here you go, Hinata, this is the biggest one. Remember to eat your fill today."
Naruto carefully handed the fish to Hinata, his eyes filled with joy.
Hinata blushed slightly as she accepted the grilled fish, saying shyly, "Thank you, Naruto."
Naruto stared intently at Hinata, who took a bite and said, "Delicious, Naruto."
"Hehe...eat up, I baked a lot today."
Naruto relaxed after receiving the praise and took a skewer to eat.
When Hinata is in a bad mood, she turns her grief and anger into her appetite.
Naruto had spent so much time with Hinata, so naturally he discovered Hinata's secret: she actually had a huge appetite.
Although he didn't know how much Karin could eat, he did know how much Hinata could eat.
So I'm not worried about wasting it at all.
"Mmm...crunch...crunch...Although Naruto's grilled fish is delicious, it's still a little worse than Master's."
Karin is the type who only cares about people, not food; she was still thinking about the grilled fish she ate with her master at the border of the Land of Fire.
"Karin, you really know how to compliment me." A familiar voice came from high above.
Karin looked up with some surprise: "Oh! Master, you're here!"
Naruto waved happily, shouting, "Gaara! Gaara!"
Qianyao had already folded its wings in the air.
It fell directly from the sky, like raindrops falling into water, and merged directly into Karin's shadow.
Gaara stepped onto a sand cushion and slowly flew down.
Naruto and Sasuke both thought that Chiyo flew over on Gaara's sand cushion, and they didn't know that Chiyo could use Paper Release.
"Gaara, your sandbag can fly now?"
Gaara had told Naruto about this technique before they even graduated.
I'm really happy to see that Gaara can use it now.
Gaara nodded, but didn't mention Chiyo's Paper Release: "The sand cushion isn't flying very fast yet."
"Gaara, try my grilled fish."
On the other side, Karin presented a fish to Chiyo as if offering a treasure.
"Master, try the fish that Naruto grilled."
Qianyao is an avatar. Although he can eat, it's only to satisfy his appetite.
Karin knew, but she didn't care.
"Okay, I'll just try it." Qianyao patted Karin's head, not refusing her kindness.
Qianyao had found a rock and was about to sit on the ground.
Gaara was quick-witted and agile; he turned a clump of sand into a stool on the ground.
Chiyo smiled at Gaara, picked up the grilled fish, and took a bite.
It has to be said that Naruto has been grilling fish for so many years, his control over the heat is extremely precise, as for the taste...
Both the grilled dishes and the ones grilled by Qianyao have their own unique flavors.
"Hmm, Naruto's grilling is delicious too."
"Master..."
Seeing Chiyo's look, Karin stuck out her tongue and didn't pursue the matter any further.
Taste is a subjective thing, so he naturally wouldn't argue with Karin.
Meanwhile, Naruto didn't care about any of that; his attention was entirely on Gaara and Hinata.
He felt that this mission was really great.
Very happy.
Sasuke stood to the side, sulking.
Hinata is one thing, but why is Gaara here too?
Sasuke felt even more awkward now, as if he were the only outsider in the team.
"Tap!" Qianyao reached out and flicked Sasuke's forehead.
"Hiss... Master, what are you doing?" Sasuke covered his head, looking aggrieved.
Chiyo leaned close to Sasuke's ear: "Do you think Naruto cares more about Hinata or Gaara?"
"Cough cough..." Sasuke shifted his body slightly and whispered:
"What...what does this have to do with me...I'm not guessing!"
Qianyao chuckled: "Naruto cares more about you."
Sasuke turned his head away, but couldn't suppress the urge to smile: "How could that be?"
Chiyo patted Sasuke on the shoulder: "Because you are Naruto's older brother."
He was talking about Indra and Asura.
But Sasuke thought Chiyo was encouraging him, and his fighting spirit was rekindled. His eyes shone as he looked at Naruto.
Naruto was talking to Hinata when he suddenly felt a burning gaze.
He turned to look at Sasuke, scratched his head, and didn't understand what Sasuke was doing.
Seeing that Sasuke was no longer awkward, Qianyao chuckled and continued eating his fish.
After eating one fish, they didn't continue; they just ate a little bit.
However, there were still many fish left, and Chiyo naturally knew Karin and Hinata's appetites.
So I quietly watched the two girls eat.
Sasuke, who was not very familiar with this, was truly amazed. He could accept that Karin could eat so much.
But why is Hinata, who looks so refined, also a big eater?
How can such a small body fit so much food inside?
Naruto was quite happy, since he was the one who cooked them all, and the more Hinata ate, the happier he was.
"This mission isn't very difficult, but it can broaden your horizons."
Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Qianyao brought up the mission:
"You can compare the differences between large and small countries."
