Naruto: Starting With Three Tomoe Sharingan, Girlfriend Kushina Chapter 55: Let Me Sleep at His House? Who Created "Dragon B

"I feel a bit emotional... but it's just like that... A ninja must go through trials of blood, and fear must be overco. It's inevitable sooner or later..."

As Ryun spoke, he noticed Kushina's unusual state.

"Nana, what's wrong with you???"

At this mont, Kushina's face was pale, and her body trembled slightly. The destruction of Uzushiogakure had left a deep impact on her young heart. This psychological shadow might fade with ti, but it would never completely disappear.

"It's... it's nothing..."

Kushina forced a stiff smile.

'Was she scared by what I said...'

Ryun felt slightly puzzled. He didn't realize Kushina was thinking about Uzushiogakure and instead assud she was frightened by the future "bloody trials."

"Don't be afraid... I'll face every difficulty with you in the future."

Sensing her nervousness, Ryun reached out and held her hand, his face breaking into a sunny smile.

The warmth and strength from his hand imdiately stopped Kushina's trembling, and the fear in her heart dissipated sowhat.

"Thank you, Ryun-kun..."

At this mont, Kushina seed to understand what reliance was, and what... love was!

"Let's not go to the river for training today. Co ho with . Rest in the morning, adjust your condition, and we'll start learning the 'tree-climbing' exercise in the afternoon."

Kushina had heavy dark circles under her eyes, her face showing clear exhaustion, and her ntal state was poor. Ryun guessed she might have suffered from insomnia again last night.

"O-okay... I'll listen to you..."

Hearing Ryun say they would rest in the morning, Kushina subconsciously relaxed. In truth, she knew her condition wasn't great and really needed proper rest.

But the mont she thought about resting at Ryun's house, her little brain started uncontrollably imagining things...

'Does Ryun an... does he an... for to sleep at his house?!'

The mont this possibility crossed her mind, Kushina felt flustered, and her face gradually turned into a giant tomato.

"R-Ryun, um... is your mom ho?"

Standing at the entrance of Ryun's house, Kushina was as nervous as she always was when visiting.

"She happens to be out this morning. She said she was going to look at a few storefronts to see where would be a good place to open a flower shop..."

Ryun explained with a smile. Kushina secretly sighed in relief and subconsciously straightened her back as she entered.

"Did your mom quit her job? Why is she thinking of opening a flower shop?"

The two sat in the living room, and Kushina casually asked.

"She resigned a long ti ago. I told her to quit..."

"As for the flower shop? Mainly because she felt too bored staying at ho and wanted sothing to do to pass the ti..."

Ryun brought out a large pile of snacks to treat Kushina, covering nearly half of the low table with delicious food.

"What? You told her to quit??" Kushina wondered if she had misheard.

"Yeah, her previous job was quite hard, so I told her to stop... Anyway, I can afford to support her..."

"What???"

Kushina realized she hadn't misheard earlier, and Ryun's words were getting even more unbelievable...

Aren't we just elentary school students who haven't even graduated yet? Where do you get the money to support your mom?

Besides, whether Ryun had a job or not, wasn't that sothing she would know?

Thinking about this, Kushina suddenly rembered the night they went to the夜市 (night market) together.

Back then, Ryun had casually spent tens of thousands... Where did his money co from?

Seeing Kushina full of questions, Ryun explained that he earned money by writing and creating stories.

"Nani???"

Kushina's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.

To her, Ryun's words were like a fantasy, sothing utterly unbelievable.

It wasn't that she didn't want to believe him, but Ryun's claims were too outrageous. Without seeing proof, no one would believe an elentary school student could earn big money through writing.

"..."

Seeing her shocked expression, Ryun casually picked up a manga from under the low table.

"This is a manga adapted from my story. You can check the na of the story's writer."

Ryun tossed the manga in front of Kushina.

"It's actually... 'Dragon Ball'!"

Kushina couldn't help but exclaim. She vaguely rembered Nawaki reading this manga and had heard many classmates discussing it.

Though she wasn't interested in manga, she knew this series was quite famous in Konoha Village.

'C-could this really be true?!'

Kushina's hands trembled as she picked up the manga. When she saw the small print in the bottom right corner of the cover, her eyes widened subconsciously.

The bottom right corner of "Dragon Ball" had a few lines of small text and two nas:

Manga Artist: Yamazaki Akira

Story Writer: Ryuch

Character Design: Ryuch

This manga is a collaborative work by the two creators above.

Originally, the author of this book should have been directly credited as "Ryuch." However, since the manga's copyright was shared between the two and Yamazaki Akira wanted to build his reputation, his na was added as well.

Ryun didn't particularly care about this. He didn't want fa from "copying" stories, and "Dragon Ball's" popularity was expected. Since soone would inevitably have to represent it publicly, giving half the credit to Yamazaki Akira wasn't a big deal.

All Ryun wanted was money.

"R-Ryuch... it really is you!" Kushina's voice was stuttering.

In fact, so students at school had once joked about the na "Ryuch" in relation to Ryun, sothing Kushina had vaguely heard about.

However, she didn't know what "Ryuch" represented because she wasn't familiar with manga.

Moreover, she faintly rembered Ryun once admitting with a smile that the na was indeed his—that he was Ryuch.

Kushina rembered how a bunch of annoying kids had mocked him back then, and so even called him a "pretentious dog"... To stand up for Ryun, she had beaten up one of those jerks!

Now, thinking carefully... could this "Ryuch" really be him?

"Yeah, you can think of 'Ryuch' as my pen na."

Ryun casually replied while munching on snacks, acting as if it were no big deal.

"!!!"

Kushina subconsciously covered her mouth. The look in her eyes shifted from shock to outright admiration!

Others might think Ryun was just pretending and couldn't possibly have the intelligence or ability to create the "Dragon Ball" manga, but Kushina believed in his talent!

If she hadn't seen the na, she might have doubted it a little. But now that she had, she fully believed this manga was Ryun's work.

Uchiha Ryun and Ryuch—how many coincidences could there be in a small village like Konoha?

The talents Ryun had displayed were so nurous that Kushina couldn't even count them all on her fingers...

"Treasure boy" wasn't just sothing she made up. Even now, she still couldn't fully grasp the limits of his abilities.

The key was that Ryun was extrely "low-key" in daily life. It seed like she was the only one in the entire world who had discovered this "treasure boy"...

Thinking of this, Kushina felt secretly delighted and even let out a giggle...

"???"
