Hokage Master

Hanabi clenched her fists in rage and walked from side to side, trying to put her thoughts in order. Only she managed to calm down a little after the incident at the Uzumaki house, when suddenly Naruto throws this out! He didn't respect his wife at all!

"What a disgusting he is ... Why did she even marry him? How infuriating! " - she herself did not notice how she became so nervous and irritable.

"I won't leave it like that! I'll find out how many girls this scoundrel has, and then, then ... I'll destroy everything! All his plans! I want to see how this impudent gets what he deserves! You bastard ... How dare he, he even used me! Behaved like this ... So ... I'm such a fool! He thought he was not like everyone else, but ... How infuriating! Why did he do that ?! " - the veins in Hanabi's temples trembled incessantly, she looked straight at his face through the walls and growled:

"What do you even know about me ?! What do you think of yourself ?! "

She almost had a breakdown ... After all that had piled on, after the words of her sister, all Hanabi's thoughts were in chaos!

Meanwhile, while the kunoichi clenched their fists in rage and cursed the Hokage, never looking up from his face and Shizune's shameful actions, right outside the walls of the office, Shikamaru frowned towards the door, and the surprised Sai could not understand why his friend did not let him finish. ... Dealing with Root was pretty important to him, even if he didn't doubt Naruto's abilities, he still wanted to help, but it seemed Shikamaru was against ...

- Why? - he asked immediately, expecting an intelligible answer to such a strange act.

- Did you notice anything? - Nara asked a counter question.

Cy frowned, not quite understanding.

"As I thought," Shikamaru just sighed and explained, "Naruto is up to something ... I didn't notice before, or rather just ignored his strange behavior, but now I'm sure he's changed." Something is close and this "something" is very important, and maybe dangerous. Naruto seemed to have lost interest in everything, and secretly from the others cooks something ...

- Dangerous? Sai frowned. "Where did you get it? Naruto was really acting kind of aloof, but ... He works too hard and ...

"No," Shikamaru shook his head and replied, "I was thinking about the same, a few weeks ago that's exactly what I decided, without trying to figure it out. Only if you haven't noticed, days have passed, and the entire residence is slowly changing, even Shizune has completely returned to her duties and does not leave Naruto. He himself stopped sorting out many cases and gave them to others, before he had such a thing in his thoughts.

Cy pondered and nodded slowly.

"You're right ... Recently, the Anbu received a request for a full assessment of all shinobi. Naruto hadn't asked for that before. Now, I think it's for a reason ...

"That's how," Shikamaru lowered his head thoughtfully. "So I was right.

Cy asked, puzzled:

- If so, why don't you know anything about it? You're an advisor, I thought he was telling you everything.

- So it was, - Nara nodded, turned around and answered with a strained smile: - Well, here I am to blame ... I think I pulled back a little. A year ago, a lot fell on me. As my father said, the family is still a hassle. In general, lately I am not quite an advisor anymore. If Naruto didn't tell me about his plan, I think it's because of that. Maybe he no longer trusts me ...

"Doesn't look like him," Sai frowned. "Why don't you ask him about it personally?

"This will only make things worse. If Naruto has a plan, and I begin to figure out the reasons for his distrust, it could damage the common cause. For him Konoha comes first, as well as for me ... Ha-ah ... "Shikamaru sighed and explained," Maybe it's not Naruto. Usually he doesn't do that, but Sasuke could ... Perhaps they planned something and extra ears shouldn't know all the details, that's why he changed so much. If Naruto has stepped back from duties that much, then this is definitely something very important.

"Hmm ... Maybe you're right," Sai agreed grimly. "Maybe it has something to do with this Gezo Tennoo?"

- It may well be. Apparently, Naruto already knew everything. Perhaps his attitude changed because of this. There may be a traitor in the village ... We have not had such a thing for a long time. Someone is pumping chakra out of people, but we cannot even find it. Naruto already knew about this, so Sasuke probably too. Ha-ah ... 'With another sigh, Shikamaru shook his head.

- It's not your fault, - Saya encouraged his friend: - He didn't say anything to me either.

With a wry grin, Shikamaru waved his hand, and then suddenly remembered something and turned around.

"By the way, Temari is acting strangely. She sometimes visits Naruto and since then her relationship with me has somehow grown too cold. In general, even before that she treated me like an enemy, but ... Now, I'm like an empty place, she even ignores Shikadai. Behaves completely differently and has changed outwardly, has become so ... Inaccessible.

The man sighed heavily:

- I already doubt whether we had anything real at all, you know? She's gotten too pretty in the last weeks! It scares me ... That's just, she's not interested in me. Although, I suspect that this is her plan, in her youth she did so often and in the end we got married. Well, I'm willing to wait ...

Sai scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and smiled.

- Well, everything is fine with Ino, as always. We understand each other well, we don't even swear, especially recently, Ino is not at all angry with me - he was clearly happy with his family life, completely ignoring the main thing.

- By the way ... - Cy suddenly remembered something and looked at his friend:

- Naruto recently came to our store, since then Ino has just become more kind to me, she has become more joyful and smiles more often. And ... Come to think of it, usually Naruto never stopped by our store. Do you think it has something to do with it?

Shikamaru suddenly frowned, now all the details came together!

- That's it, it's definitely not a coincidence! Temari has changed, Shizune, Ino ... A couple of days ago, Lee told how he met Naruto at the Tenten weapons shop and this is also not without reason, because Naruto has not been there since the Inauguration. The question is, why would he ...

Cy nodded and asked warily:

- Maybe the next Council is just for this?

- Advice?

- Well, yes, the Council of all heads of clans and important people of the village. Shizune notified everyone, didn't you get the news?

"Ah, that's ..." Shikamaru smiled embarrassedly. "Usually Temari does that kind of ... Um, but advice?" If so, this is definitely not the case. Naruto didn't tell me anything, but I think it's temporary. If this is their plan with Sasuke, it is definitely very important. The council hasn't met for two years, so maybe that's where we'll find out about everything. '' Continuing more and more convinced of the correctness of his guess, Shikamaru finished happily

"Maybe he chose Temari for that very reason, I have to admit, she's in charge of the clan. Well, with Ino, and so everything is clear, she refused the post of head, but is considered the first figure among the elders of Yamanaka. If I hadn't yawned, eh ...

Cy nodded, he also began to understand everything, but the questions only grew:

- And what will you do?

- Hmm, well, - Shikamaru turned around and waved his hand with a grin: - I'll go have a drink, I'm already tired of something, it's all such a hassle ... It's better not to get involved in this business yet, I believe in Naruto. If anyone knows all the details, it's Sasuke, but he reports only to him, he doesn't even communicate with Sakura, so it's better to wait for advice and find out everything there. If you want, you can ask Ino, well, Temari will rather send me to hell ... - he pulled out a hand seal and sarcastically remarked: - But Chоji is glad to me!

After his words, Shikamaru disappeared in a gust of wind.

- That's how ...

Sai stood for a while, glanced briefly at the door of the Hokage's office, and then, with a crooked grin, also evaporated.

There was some truth in Shikamaru's words, if Naruto didn't tell him something, then Sasuke knew the truth for sure, but it was not worth getting into their affairs, sooner or later, the Hokage would devote them to details, they both believed in it ...
