"Sigh, what a bummer."
Sasuke sighed, and the lightning condensed in his left palm dissipated.
Only then did Kakashi loosen his grip on him.
"Next time, if there's a chance, let's fight again."
He didn't have the interest to stay here any longer. After leaving a sentence to Naruto, he left in a flash.
"Okay!"
Naruto looked at the departing Sasuke, nodded, and canceled the Rasengan in his hand.
His eyes fell on Waterstop, and he said with joy: "Waterstop -sensei, where did you go? We haven't seen each other for a long time."
Waterstop naturally returned to the Anbu, and he became the Anbu's Captain again.
...
Another month.
Naruto's office.
Watergate was holding a report submitted by Tsunade.
The report showed the research progress of the first Naruto's cells.
Tsunade has successfully extracted Hashirama's DNA from the white object left by Nagato and cultivated it, and she quickly achieved success.
The first generation's Naruto's cells had amazing vitality, so it wasn't difficult to cultivate them.
Then, she immediately transplanted these cells into some injured animal test subjects.
Not only did all the experimental subjects not get the strong vitality in the cells, but they also died because they couldn't bear the power.
This confirmed one of Watergate's previous hypotheses, that the first generation's power wasn't easy to manipulate.
As for cultivating living creatures, Tsunade had no clue.
"Knock knock!"
At this time, someone knocked on the office door.
"Please come in."
Watergate said and stood up from his seat.
The door opened, and Naruto and the other members of the seventh class and the eighth class came in.
"Naruto -sama." Everyone said.
Watergate nodded. He picked up a mission list from the table and said, "The situation is like this. The caravan of Mr. Fujiwara, the president of the Fire Country's Chamber of Commerce, was robbed by a group of bandits when they were transporting goods."
"There seems to be ninjas in that group of bandits. Their combat power is not weak, and their anti-detection ability is extremely strong. Therefore, I order your two squads to retrieve the goods in the shortest time possible."
"Two classes working together. Mission difficulty level: B."
"Leave it to me. It won't be a problem." Naruto patted his chest and promised.
"The main point of this mission is to find out where the bandits are hiding, so the members of Class 8 will be the main force, and the members of Class 7 will be assisting from the side. Don't try to show off," Watergate said with a smile.
"Woof woof!"
Akimaru, who was lying on Inuzuka Kiba's head, barked twice at Naruto, as if to declare his dominant position.
"For this operation, the two classes will be combined into a small team. Kakashi will be the captain, and Red will be the vice-captain. I'm counting on you."
Watergate said. The difficulty of the task itself is not high, but the identity of the client is special, and they can't be careless.
"Yes!"
Everyone responded. Kakashi took the task list from Watergate, and the group turned and left Naruto's office.
...
A few days later.
Under the joint search of the members of Class 8, Naruto and others finally determined the location of the bandits, deep in a mountain in the Land of Fire.
Whoosh!
Six people rushed to the foot of the mountain. Kakashi glanced at the short-haired girl behind him and said, "Hinata, please."
"Yes!"
Hinata softly responded, her hands formed a seal, and the blue veins in the corner of her eyes bulged. "Byakugan!"
Through the observation of the Byakugan, it was easy to know the distribution of the enemy in the mountain and the location of the materials they plundered.
Then Kakashi began to formulate a combat plan.
The ultimate purpose of their operation is to retrieve the materials, so they can't rashly use a brute force method.
In these short few days, Naruto really realized that there were still many abilities that he didn't understand in these students of the same batch.
Class 8's investigative ability amazed him.
"I will be responsible for the feint attack later, Kuwa and Shino will assist me. Naruto, you guys control and protect the materials first, don't let it be destroyed." Kakashi said.
"Super Beast Painting – Eagle!"
After the task assignment was completed, Sasai unfolded the scroll, waved his pen, and drew a giant eagle, carrying Naruto, Shino, Hinata, and himself into the sky.
...
With the cooperation of several people, the task was carried out quite smoothly.
When they returned to the village after handing in the task, Kakashi and Kuwa left first and went to Naruto's office to hand in the task.
"Finally back!"
Naruto stretched and looked at the others around him and said, "Is there anyone who wants to eat ramen? It's my treat."
"No need." Shino shook his head.
"I still have to take Akamaru to take a bath, you guys go." Kiba also said.
"Okay then."
Naruto's eyes fell on Hinata beside the two and asked, "What about Hinata?"
"Hinata-san will of course go with us."
At this time, Shino stepped forward and held the arm of the shy Hinata and smiled.
...
Ramen.
"Hinata-san, sit here."
Under Shino's push, Hinata sat next to Naruto.
"Uncle, four bowls of ramen."
Naruto greeted the boss and said.
Soon after, four bowls of ramen were placed in front of everyone.
While eating ramen, the boss's daughter, Chang Pu, seemed to have just returned from delivering takeout.
Hinata was the first one to finish the ramen among the four.
"It tastes good, right?"
Seeing that Hinata seemed to like ramen very much, Naruto smiled happily. He pointed at Hinata and turned to Chang Pu and said, "Chang Pu -neesan, give me another bowl of ramen."
"Okay."
Chang Pu responded, her eyes fell on Hinata, then looked at Naruto and said, "Naruto, your girlfriend is quite cute."
"Pfft!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Naruto directly spat out the ramen he had just stuffed into his mouth, and even the soup was sprayed out.
Hinata's face turned as red as an apple.
"Huh? Did I say something wrong? "
Seeing their extreme reaction, Chang Pu realized that she seemed to have said something wrong.
On the side, Shino looked at this scene with a smile and continued eating ramen.
A few days later, under the repeated assurances of Watergate and Jiraiya, Shinna Kushina reluctantly agreed to let the latter continue to guide Naruto.
Soon after, Wood Leaf's investigation team was sent out of the village again, and Sasuke was still in the team.
....
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, nearly half a year has passed.
After nearly a year of recuperation, Wood Leaf finally returned to its original appearance and trajectory.
The Chunin Exam began again. Naruto, Sakura, and Sakura, who temporarily returned from Tsunade, formed a group and participated in the exam.
