"Hey."
After hearing Watergate's explanation, Naruto crossed his arms and turned his head.
Although he didn't fully understand Watergate's explanation, he understood the general meaning.
Since childhood, Shane's brain has always been better than his. When they were in the ninja school, Shikamaru was always the smartest in the class.
Shinsori was originally two years older than them. Naruto didn't have much opinion about the three of them becoming Chunin.
The only thing that Naruto was not happy about is that Sasuke also became Chunin before him.
He turned his head, and Sasuke's eyes were also looking this way.
The latter's mouth was slightly raised, although he tried to suppress it, his proud look was inadvertently revealed.
Sasuke and Naruto looked at each other at the moment, and the look in their eyes seemed to be declaring their victory.
Naruto saw this and gritted his teeth.
At the same time, he also secretly decided in his heart that he must pass the next Chunin Exam!
According to the usual practice, the Chunin Exam is held every six months, and the reconstruction of Wood Leaf took more than four months.
Now most of the things in the village have returned to normal, but the next Chunin Exam should be delayed for a while.
Seeing that Naruto didn't continue to shout, Watergate smiled.
It seems that this child has matured a lot in the past few months.
"Come and get your Chunin Qualification Book."
Watergate said. Shikamaru and others heard the news and took the Chunin Qualification Book issued by the village from the former's hand.
Sasuke was the last to take the qualification book from Watergate.
At this time, all his energy was focused on the things in his hand, and he didn't notice that Watergate in front of him was looking at him with a dignified and … unbearable look.
...
After coming out of Naruto's building, everyone dispersed.
"Qianyou, I'll accompany you to the Equipment Store to collect your equipment."
Naruto looked at Shikamaru and Sasuke walking in the direction of receiving the Chunin Vest, and said.
Clearly, he was still unwilling to accept this outcome.
Qian You gently shook her head and said, "There's no rush. There aren't any missions recently."
She deliberately changed the topic. "Didn't Uncle Hitman say that he wanted to treat you? Let's go. "
"But …" Naruto's tone slowed down.
"Let's go." Qian You grabbed his hand and walked in the direction of Yi Le Ramen.
...
"It doesn't matter. This time, Naruto, you didn't fail in any aspect. It's just that Naruto and the village's higher-ups have other considerations. There's no need to care about it."
The owner's daughter, Chang Pu, smiled at Naruto and consoled him.
"Naruto won't give up so easily." Seeing that Naruto was still silent, Chang Pu said again.
"Of course. Next time, I must successfully become a Chunin." Naruto stood up from his seat.
"Yeah."
Chang Pu nodded. "To be honest, Naruto's last match was amazing. I don't even know when it started, but you've become so strong."
"Not anymore."
Naruto scratched his head in embarrassment.
"It was indeed amazing. After all, Naruto is the child of the fourth generation Naruto -sama!" Chang Pu added.
Hearing this, Naruto's eyes dimmed slightly.
"You guys are here."
Just then, another person entered the ramen shop. Hearing the familiar voice, Naruto and Qianyou both turned their heads.
"Iruka-sensei."
The two immediately stood up from their seats.
Although they had graduated from the ninja academy a long time ago, they were still very polite to their former teacher.
When they were in school, Iruka took good care of them.
...
After receiving the Chunin armor, Sasuke excitedly returned to the clan.
He looked cold on the surface, but in reality, he wanted to be recognized.
"Mom, I'm back." Sasuke called out as he walked into the hallway.
"Welcome back."
Not long after, Mikoto, who was busy in the kitchen, walked out while wiping her freshly washed hands with her apron.
At the same time, Fugaku and Itachi walked out from another room beside the hall.
Sasuke just noticed that his father and brother, who were always busy, had returned home so early today.
Then, he turned around and said, "Father, brother."
"Yeah." Fugaku replied faintly.
Itachi stepped forward with a doting smile on his face and said: "Congratulations, Sasuke, you have become a Chunin."
In Sasuke's hand, he was holding the vest and qualification book representing the Chunin level.
So even if he didn't say it, Fugaku, Mikoto, and Itachi knew.
"Thank you." Sasuke smiled. Only in front of his family will he change his personality.
At the same time, he looked at Fugaku with a little expectation in his eyes.
"Not bad, you are indeed my son."
Fugaku also nodded, then walked in front of Sasuke, stretched out his palm, and rubbed his hair.
His action made Sasuke's body freeze for a while.
Because since childhood, Fugaku has never made such an intimate gesture to him.
But gradually, Sasuke's cheeks became slightly red on both sides.
At this time, he looked like an eleven-year-old child.
"You have worked hard all day, you must be tired. Wait a moment, dinner will be ready soon."
Mikoto smiled at Sasuke, turned around and walked into the kitchen.
...
"I'm done eating."
Sasuke put the bowl and chopsticks on the table, stood up, and said: "Mom, Dad, Brother, I will go out first."
This is a habit that Sasuke has persisted for a long time, after dinner, he will practice for a while.
"There is no mission recently, you should rest for a few days." Mikoto slightly frowned and said.
Sasuke shook his head and said, "You can't slack off on your cultivation."
After that, Sasuke quickly ran out of the house.
After he left, at the dinner table, Mikoto's face gradually became ugly.
Fugaku and Itachi were the same.
"Mom, you …"
Itachi wanted to say something to comfort his mother, but Fugaku spoke first and said: "I know you are worried about Sasuke, but there is no other way."
"He inherited the bloodline of the Uchiha clan, he is my son, sooner or later he will have to bear all of this."
"You don't want what happened a few months ago to happen again, do you?"
Mikoto nodded, she also didn't want to see Wood Leaf's ninjas and civilians' corpses all over the mountain.
That is simply crueler than war.
"Before completely destroying the enemy, we need to prepare for both sides, we must know what their real purpose is …"
Fugaku said in a heavy voice: "And now the only ones who can fulfill this condition are these two brothers."
He looked at Itachi beside him.
"Sasuke is Itachi's only brother, he is our son, we should believe in his ability."
