On the way, Naruto also expressed his purpose of watching from the sidelines.
"That Kirigakure Rebel Ninja has been holding back in the battle. He has no killing intent at all. If he is serious, Sasuke, you will be killed in a very short time."
"In my opinion, he seems to be a kind Ninja. The quality of kindness will be given to a rebel now. It's really interesting." Naruto said with a smile.
"So you let him go? That Zabuza is a dangerous person." Sasuke was confused.
"Don't doubt Naruto." Sakura twisted Sasuke's arm hard, causing the latter to flip over in pain.
"This is not the main reason. If we kill them, it will be less fun and the commission will be completed smoothly." Naruto said leisurely, "I still want to play outside for a while, so I let Ninja take Zabuza and run away."
"Besides."
"We also have a rough understanding of their strength. Sasuke, you have to become stronger during this period of time. Next time you face that traitor, you can't be as embarrassed as you are today." Naruto smiled lightly.
"Hmph, I will defeat him next time." Sasuke snorted coldly.
Although Tazuna was resentful, he did not dare to make a sound. He could only silently follow behind Naruto.
He could not understand Naruto's actions.
He clearly had good strength, but he did not work hard to complete the mission, instead letting his opponent escape.
The next assassination would definitely be more dangerous than this one.
Tazuna's eyes were full of dissatisfaction.
But considering that he was the one who hid the task first, he could only hide his little emotions.
On the way, Kakashi woke up, and after eating a grain pill, his face was much better.
However, in the battle with Zabuza, his body was still a little injured, and he needed a few days of rest.
However, Zabuza was even more injured.
"Naruto, you, ah." Kakashi looked at Naruto and could not help but sigh.
He understood his disciple.
He looked gentle, but in reality, he was far more arrogant than Sasuke.
He disdained joining forces with others, and also looked forward to fighting against stronger opponents.
While dealing with Zabuza, Kakashi also noticed the situation of Naruto.
Haku was always holding back, and he was only holding back Naruto and the others.
He believed that Naruto disdained fighting with such an opponent. Letting him take Zabuza away was also to make Haku mentally prepare himself. Next time, he would fight with the thought of killing the other party.
This kind of thought was really arrogant, and could even be said to be childish.
This was because he was so confident in his own strength that he made such a decision.
How should he put this kind of Naruto?
It was a long story.
Kakashi sighed.
In Konoha, Naruto was everyone's little sun.
Outside, all of Naruto's actions made Kakashi tremble.
He was afraid of making any mistakes.
...
After that, Kakashi also explained the origin of Sharingan to Sasuke.
His companion, Uchiha Obito, handed Sharingan to him before his death.
For Kakashi, this eye was not only the last gift of his best friend but also the will of his best friend.
After understanding the reason, Sasuke no longer pursued further.
After a few days of travel, Kakashi and the others finally arrived at Nami no Kuni.
They rode the boat to the island where Tazuna lived, and they immediately received a warm welcome from all the townspeople.
For the townspeople, Kakashi and the others were angels who saved Nami no Kuni.
"Thank you very much, thank you very much." Tazuna sincerely bowed to Kakashi and the others, his eyes full of tears: "With the help of Lord Ninja, our Nami no Kuni has hope."
The townspeople cheered: "Great! Lord Ninja is here! Our hero is here!"
With Lord Ninja holding down the fort,
Gatō's subordinates will definitely not dare to come again.
"Great! Nami no Kuni is saved!" These townspeople were very enthusiastic, and they even regarded Kakashi and his group as heroes who saved Nami no Kuni.
Under Tazuna's arrangement, Kakashi and his group temporarily stayed on the island because they still needed to protect Tazuna to prevent Zabuza's second attack.
....
At night, they enjoyed delicious food under the warm hospitality of Tazuna's family. However, after all the laughter and laughter, a boy sat alone in the corner.
Naruto was the first to notice the boy and looked curiously.
Noticing the look in Naruto's eyes, Tazuna sighed and began to tell the story of the boy.
From the words of Tazuna, Kakashi and the others learned that the former Inari was a hot-blooded and cheerful boy, who worshipped his father who was regarded as a hero by the townspeople.
Because his father was a hero, he would always stand up and fight against the evil forces, Gatō.
Under the leadership of his father, everyone was full of hope.
However, during a struggle, Inari's father unfortunately died.
From then on, the small country that Tazuna was in lost hope. It was muddled, from fear being dominated to habit.
Everyone seemed to have lost their courage.
Losing hope.
Inari no longer believed in heroes, and he believed that all heroes were stupid.
However, Tazuna did not give up. He was still trying to defy the heavens and change his fate, so he found Konoha and issued a commission.
"How pitiful." After listening, Sakura sighed with pity.
Tsk. Sasuke was rather disdainful.
And in Naruto's opinion, the child, Inari, was pitiful and sad. Rather than saying that he did not believe in heroes, it was better to say that he was numbing himself and making himself not believe in heroes.
There was no need for such an awkward child to waste time.
...
Late at night.
Naruto heard strange noises coming from the door. He simply put on his clothes and walked out of the door.
Outside the door, Sasuke was still training. He condensed Chakra under his feet and continued to rush down the waterfall.
The water on the waterfall continued to wash down. It rushed into the pond along the stream, bringing up large waves. Sasuke's legs were firmly attached to the water. In his right hand, the boiling lightning Chakra constantly condensed and changed shape under Sasuke's strenuous control.
Cultivating in the water was extremely dangerous. It could be called suicide.
In order to become stronger, Sasuke did not hesitate to use death as a catalyst.
Under such a crisis, he felt his adrenaline surge and stimulated his potential.
"What a madman." Naruto shook his head in relief.
Sasuke was the person he had set his eyes on. He had great potential.
Perhaps in the future, Sasuke could reach a new height.
Naruto withdrew his gaze and was about to leave quietly when he noticed a small figure walking along the stream to the vicinity.
It was Tazuna's grandson, Inari.
...
Tonight, Inari was completely unable to fall asleep. Every time he closed his eyes, the scene of his father, who was once regarded as a hero by the townspeople, being killed by Gatō would appear in his mind.
Hero!
How ironic.
As a hero, he did things that were completely impossible to succeed in and even lost his life in the end.
Since he knew that it was impossible to succeed, why did he still work hard?
Inari walked out of the house like a walking corpse. He unconsciously walked along the waterfall to the stream and saw Sasuke, who was still cultivating bitterly in the middle of the night.
