"Cough cough, sorry, I lost my composure a bit."
Naruto quickly retracted his chakra, the dark green power disappeared, but the terrifying destruction it caused was shocking everyone present.
Especially Shikamaru, who was more shocked than anyone else.
He knew Naruto was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, he also knew Naruto was the perfect Jinchuriki, he even knew that the Nine-Tails chakra was red, and when it erupted, it would form a special tailed beast cloak like red bubble water.
But now, the power Naruto erupted was not red at all, what was this? The power he erupted was not the tailed beast chakra, but his own chakra. Naruto's own chakra has also reached a very astonishing level, possessing extremely terrifying power.
Even if he doesn't have the Nine-Tails' blessing, his own power is probably enough to rival elite Jonin, or even the Hokage, right? Shikamaru thought deeply.
Ino, looking at the amazing destruction caused by Naruto's chakra eruption, couldn't help but think to herself: Perhaps the destruction caused by my full attack can't reach the level of Naruto's pure chakra eruption? How big is the gap between us...
"It's... it's okay, it's okay."
Little Karin, who had never seen such a scene, knew Naruto's chakra was very terrifying, but she didn't expect Naruto's chakra to be so non-human. At this moment, she didn't dare to move at all.
"After the Chunin exam is over, you will stay in Konohagakure." Naruto sighed and said.
"What about Kusagakure..."
Karin said weakly.
Naruto didn't answer, his expression was very calm, but his chakra was surging in his body like a stormy sea, a trace of killing intent quietly revealed, making Karin instantly understand his meaning.
...
Night
The seven-man squad rested in the Forest of Death, taking turns to keep watch in three shifts, Naruto and Ino, Hinata and Shikamaru, Sasuke and Chouji, Karin was not responsible for the night watch task, because she was a Kusagakure ninja after all, maintaining necessary vigilance in Shikamaru's view is very necessary.
The distribution mode of one person per class for Naruto and Ino is also the most reasonable, both can ensure the safety of their class to the greatest extent, avoid accidents, this arrangement will not easily cause mutual suspicion, can avoid trouble to the greatest extent.
This is how Shikamaru thinks.
"Why are you so close to me?"
Sasuke sat on the ground, staring straight at the bonfire in front of him, and asked without turning his head.
Karin, not far away, looked at the bonfire, then looked at Sasuke, and said, "I... I'm cold."
"Hmph, how pretentious."
Sasuke said disdainfully, then stood up directly, walked to the other side, leaving Karin a space to make a fire by herself.
Although he was a bit arrogant, and his mouth is a bit toxic, also he is a bit deserving of a beating, Sasuke was still very kind-hearted, giving Karin a place while scolding her.
"Thank... thank you."
Karin leaned over and said softly.
Ordinary people generally don't understand Sasuke, most likely they will think that the other party is annoyed with them, so they will directly stay away, but Karin is not an ordinary person, she can roughly perceive other people's emotions through the changes in chakra, knowing that Sasuke has no malice.
Although Karin's perception intensity is not as good as Naruto's sense of good and evil, if it is just a rough distinction, it is more than enough.
The bonfire, it's really warm.
She came to the bonfire, stared at the flames, sensed Sasuke's chakra, and felt very comfortable in her heart. This life is much better than her life in Kusagakure.
In addition, Karin didn't lean over because she really wanted to roast the fire, nor was she really afraid of the cold. She just had a special affection for Sasuke who saved her, so she took the initiative to lean over. If it wasn't for Sasuke, she might still be used as a blood bag.
It's so good to meet him.
...
On the third day of the Forest of Death examination, Naruto and his team finally arrived at the central area, nearing the tower. The traps along the way became more and more numerous, but these things posed no threat to Naruto's team, their clothes were still very neat.
"Sasuke, they... they're ahead."
Karin shouted nervously.
"Tsk, it's just an ambush, haven't we encountered it several times before? Making a fuss over nothing." Sasuke crossed his arms and said calmly.
"No... it's not, they... they are my companions in Kusagakure." Karin's voice trembled, not knowing whether it was fear or resentment.
During the time she spent with Naruto's team, she had a very good time. She didn't need to be bitten by others to recover, and she had three meals a day on time, full, balanced nutrition, and delicious... it was really good!
Thinking back to the time when she was with the people of Kusagakure, she could only eat soldier food pills at most, and sometimes she couldn't even eat soldier food pills. Moreover, she had to be used as a blood bag for the grass ninjas under such circumstances, and she would be thrown away casually after being used... it was painful!
Although she still wore the forehead protector of the grass ninja on her head, her heart now completely leaned towards Konohagakure. However, when she was about to face her former companions, her heart would still feel fearful and uneasy, as if she could return to the past at any time.
Sasuke looked at Karin with a complex expression, raised his eyebrows, and squinted his eyes and said, "So?"
"Thank you for taking care of me during this time..."
Karin breathed a sigh of relief, a warm smile appeared on her face, but before she finished speaking...
"Hmm?" Sasuke, squinting his eyes, stared.
Karin: "Actually, I want to say..."
"Oh?" Sasuke, with a dangerous smile, stared.
Karin: "No, I didn't..."
"Heh...." Sasuke, licking Kunai, stared.
"I have to wash my private horse!"
Karin shouted loudly.
(?o﹏o??)
"Don't think nonsense, understand?"
Sasuke touched Karin's little head and said.
"Yes, yes!" Karin nodded frantically.
...
"Naruto, is this okay?" Ino pulled Naruto's clothes corner and said with a black line on her face.
"It's okay, I trust Sasuke."
Naruto replied with a smile.
He knew that Sasuke has always been a gentle and very hidden person. He is doing this now just because he doesn't want Karin to return to Kusagakure and be subjected to the cruel treatment she once received, even though his approach doesn't seem very friendly.
To make Sasuke express his thoughts frankly, the difficulty is no less than letting a chicken dance, play a basketball and sing a song by the way, it is basically impossible to achieve.
"Then her companions in Kusagakure.."
"Let Sasuke handle it. Actually, Sasuke has always been very good at diplomacy. If Sasuke can be Konohagakure's diplomat, it would definitely be a great thing." Naruto said with a smile.
"Eh?!"
Ino was shocked.
She slightly made up for it, imagining Sasuke going to other ninja villages for diplomacy, and then, the first sentence was: Lower your head, do you deserve to look at me directly?
