Sky Curtain: Short Video Commentary on Konoha Villagers

In Konoha Village, several female ninjas gathered together on the street to discuss something.

"To be honest... I admire Sakura a bit. Knowing that Sasuke was indifferent to her, she was able to persist for so long."

"What do you call this? This is true love!"

"True love? I think that's just being pathetic. Sasuke was already like that, and she's still chasing after him. If it were me, I would have run away long ago."

"But she succeeded in the end, which means she made the right bet."

"You gambled right? The price was Sasuke rarely coming home, leaving you all alone? Is that what you call a success?"

"That's still better than growing old alone."

On the training field, Sakura's face was burning hot, like a boiling kettle, as she listened to the gossip around her.

Sasuke stood to the side, his expression still calm and composed, but his gaze unconsciously drifted towards Sakura.

A thought flashed through his mind: Would he really marry this guy in the future?

...Never mind, that's a future thing anyway.

However, he had no feelings for Sakura; he only saw her as a companion, and it was far from being love.

Besides, women would only slow down his growth. If Naruto, that loser, put all his energy into improving his strength...

This is probably the threshold of the school of thought he mentioned before he stepped into the sky.

The text on the screen continued to scroll.

【III. Yamanaka Ino】

Konoha Year 60, Location of Team 10.

Yamanaka Ino's eyes widened, and she suddenly jumped up from the ground.

"Me?! I'm on the list too?!"

Choji Akimichi was eating potato chips when he paused, looking puzzled.

"Ino, are you a simp too?"

"Choji, shut up!" Ino blushed, then couldn't help but look up at the sky, both curious and a little scared.

Nara Shikamaru leaned against a tree, his hands behind his head, and lazily began to speak.

"By the way, Ino, you also had a crush on Sasuke, right?"

Ino choked, unable to speak for a long time.

Shikamaru didn't look at her; his gaze was fixed on the sky, and his tone was full of teasing.

"So it turns out that you women really will do anything for a man."

"Shikamaru, who are you talking about?!" Ino suddenly turned her head and glared at him.

"I told you women are troublesome, didn't I?" Shikamaru shrugged.

"you!"

At this moment, the words have appeared in the image on the sky.

Once upon a time, Ino and Sakura were inseparable best friends, but their friendship was shattered because of Sasuke, who didn't even bother to look at them.

At the Ninja Academy, Ino considers Sakura her biggest rival, and the two are constantly competing.

Especially in gaining Sasuke's attention, she worked hard to improve herself, both in ninjutsu and appearance, all to outshine her former best friend in front of Sasuke.

However, Sasuke had no interest in their subtle power struggles and remained oblivious to their affections.

This love affair was, from the very beginning, a one-woman show where the protagonist was being fought over by her best friend.

Fortunately, Ino eventually overcame this obsession and later met Sai, who was similar to Sasuke.

[Finally, they achieved a happy ending, and he found a replacement.]

In Konoha,

Sai was sitting on a tree branch in the distance when he was suddenly called out by the sky. He was stunned for a moment, looked up at the sky, and then looked down at his hands, somewhat bewildered.

...Similar to Sasuke? Is this referring to him?

He subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth, and the fake smile he had maintained for years seemed to falter for a moment.

At the same moment, Sakura was glaring at Ino with murderous eyes.

"Ino! Even after you get married, are you still going to find Sasuke as a substitute?!"

"Don't you dare slander me!" Ino crossed her arms, chin slightly raised. "Guess who's married but living like a widow?!"

"Say that again?!"

"I'm telling the truth!"

Amegakure Village, the Akatsuki's stronghold.

Deidara laughed so hard he slammed his fist on the table: "Hahahaha! This list is hilarious! It's all about simps and changing partners!"

Hidan grinned and chimed in, "Tsk tsk tsk, Yamanaka Ino, huh? Good thing she gave up, otherwise she'd be a substitute for life!"

Kakuzu, expressionless, coldly interjected.

"At least she found a replacement in the end. Of the three on this list, she has the best ending so far."

Konoha Year 83, Hokage's office.

Boruto first laughed so hard he almost fell over, then shouted between laughs:

"Wait, Dad! Aunt Ino used to compete with Aunt Sakura for Uncle Sasuke?!"

Naruto touched his face with a narcissistic air.

"Well, that was a long time ago, but Dad used to be chased a lot back then."

Boruto expressed disbelief.

【IV. Hinata Hyuga】

The moment this title appeared, the entire Hyuga clan compound in Konoha fell silent for a moment.

In the courtyard, Hyuga Hiashi's brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.

Hinata?

How could Hinata possibly be a simp?

[Sakura and Ino are openly simps, while Hinata is the queen of covert observation, the ultimate socially awkward simp.]

[She's always seen Naruto as her light since she was little; wherever Naruto goes, her gaze follows.]

[But you want her to go up and say a few words? Sorry, she'll just faint on the spot.]

[Naruto, this super conspicuous bag, has been dangling in front of the entire village for over a decade, yet he hasn't noticed this loyal fan lurking in the corner.]

To put it simply, it means "My eyes are only on Naruto-kun."

Sungai tribe.

Hiashi Hyuga's expression had changed from frowning to silence.

He looked at the words on the sky, then at young Hinata kneeling in the corner of the courtyard, and felt a mix of emotions.

My own daughter, before she's even grown up, has already been officially recognized by the heavens as Naruto's simp.

He took a deep breath, looked away, and said nothing.

Hinata herself had curled up into a ball, covering her face with her hands, her ears so red they looked like they could bleed.

She wanted to crawl into a hole and disappear, because at that moment the entire ninja world knew she was Naruto's simp.

In order to keep up with Naruto, she transformed herself from a shy little girl into the eldest daughter of the main branch of the family, capable of performing the Eight Trigrams Palm technique.

[Her most glorious moment was undoubtedly the battle against Pain. When everyone else was down, she knew it was suicide, but she still rushed forward without hesitation to shield Naruto from bullets, and in the process, she made a battlefield confession.]

In Konoha year 83, in the Hokage's office.

Boruto burst out laughing.

"Hahaha! My mom's social anxiety from her younger days has actually been confirmed by Tianmu!"

The sunflower tilted its head and asked curiously.

Was Mom really that shy before?

Hinata sat beside Himawari, her cheeks slightly flushed, and patted Himawari's head.

"That was a long time ago."

Naruto coughed, remembering what had happened before.

"...Actually, Hinata did blush quite easily back then."

Boruto immediately seized on the key point: "So, Dad, didn't you realize back then that Mom liked you?"

Naruto chuckled and scratched his head, realizing he hadn't paid any attention to Hinata back then.

"...I was indeed a bit slow back then."
