28 parts Ongoing Post-Fourth Shinobi War, peace has returned-but the wounds are far from healed.
Naruto Uzumaki, once the world's savior, now struggles to find his place in a world that has moved on without the need for a hero. He has power, recognition, and a future wide open... but the one thing he's always longed for remains just out of reach: Sakura Haruno.
Sakura, now one of the most respected medics in the five nations, stands tall after losing comrades, tending to a broken Sasuke, and holding the shinobi world together.
She doesn't realize that the boy who stood behind her in every battle might just be the only one who's never stopped choosing her-even when the world didn't.
But when political tensions rise again, old enemies stir in the shadows, and Naruto is forced into the spotlight once more, Sakura begins to see not the loud Genin who annoyed her once, but the man he's quietly become.
"He saved the world. But in her arms, he just wants to be seen."
