"Sasuke, is that Zabuza your subordinate? He killed the three-tailed Jinchuuriki and Kusagakure Village's Tenzō Jinsei. Are those also your masterpieces?" Black Zetsu asked.
"Oh, that's it. What's wrong?" Sasuke replied.
"It's nothing." Black Zetsu felt uneasy and decided not to argue with such a powerful man, thinking it would be better not to provoke him.
"Now, who are the members of the Akatsuki organization? I want to meet them personally and recruit them into my organization."
"Scorpion, Deidara, Kakuzu, Hidan, Kisame Hoshigaki, Juzo Biwa, Konan, Nagato (Pain's Six Paths), Obito, and me..."
"Well... it's the same as the last life, except that my brother isn't here."
After saying that, Sasuke memorized Black Zetsu's chakra and let him go.
In the ninja world, Konoha Village was holding the Chunin Exam.
At the entrance to Konoha Village:
"Hahaha, Kazekage-sama, you are finally here!" The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, sincerely greeted Rasa.
During this month, Sasuke had carefully taught Naruto and Sakura, and the results were impressive. Naruto met Jiraiya and learned the Rasengan in advance under Sasuke's guidance. Sakura also learned several ninjutsu.
As Sasuke and his team were walking, they suddenly heard a roar. The source of the sound was just ahead. They walked over and saw a ninja with camouflage on his face, carrying something unknown on his back, grabbing a child.
Judging from the forehead protector, it seemed to be from Sunagakure Village. The kid who was caught was from Konoha Village, Sarutobi Konohamaru, the grandson of the Third Hokage.
"What are you doing, you bastard! It hurts if you bump into someone, okay? Apologize!" It was Kankuro.
Kankuro looked evil and pinched Konohamaru's neck.
When Naruto saw his little brother being bullied, of course, he couldn't bear it! He rushed through the crowd to Konohamaru's side.
"Hey, you guy, put Konohamaru down quickly!"
Kankuro suddenly became excited when he looked at Naruto, who was wearing a Konoha genin forehead protector, and showed interest.
"Oh? Are you a genin of Konoha Village? You can let this kid go if you want me to, but this little brat must apologize to me!"
When Konohamaru heard this, he was immediately dissatisfied.
"Even if I, Konohamaru, die or jump from the Hokage Building, I won't apologize to you!"
After saying that, he struggled hard and actually broke free. Konohamaru hurriedly ran to Naruto, pulled Naruto's clothes, and felt aggrieved.
"Brother Naruto, he hit me unreasonably. It was obvious that he hit me first, but he asked me to apologize."
Kankuro looked at the little ninja who couldn't even be considered a ninja as he struggled to free himself from his hands and felt angry.
"Kid, you're looking for death!" Kankuro was about to take out the crow from his back when a blond beauty grabbed his hand. It was Temari.
"Kankuro, don't cause trouble in other people's territory. We have to remember our purpose."
"Haha, just a small fight, no one will be killed." Kankuro said with a cruel and dangerous smile.
At this time, Sasuke and Sakura also came over.
"Naruto, what's going on?" Sasuke asked.
Although he still had memories of the process of this Chunin Exam, it had been several years, and the memory of what happened ten years ago had long been blurred. Not to mention such a trivial matter.
"I'm a handsome guy!!" Temari couldn't help but scream, her eyes sparkling with a little love.
"Kankuro, this is not this kid's fault. There is no need to make a big deal out of a little quarrel!"
Temari wanted to leave a kind, generous, and reasonable impression on Sasuke, so she forced herself to act like a lady.
Kankuro was a little dissatisfied when he heard what Temari said. At this time, Sasuke's cold murderous intent emerged, and Kankuro finally gave in and stepped aside. He had only felt this kind of murderous aura from Gaara and Kazekage Rasa, the kind that faced the murderous intent of death.
Sasuke seemed to sense something. He crossed his arms and squinted at a tree not far away.
"Aren't the guys over there coming out yet? Are you coming out on your own, or should I beat you out?"
Everyone looked left and right but saw no one.
"Sasuke, did you see it wrong?" Naruto asked doubtfully.
"It seems... I have to do it myself!"
The next moment, Sasuke disappeared from where he was.
A sound of breaking wind came. Sasuke picked up the pebbles on the ground and threw them at the red-haired kid, trying to tease Gaara.
Gaara hung upside down on the branch without moving, and the sand in the gourd automatically formed a wall of sand, blocking the stones thrown by Sasuke.
Sasuke launched another flying kick, so fast that the sand had no time to react. He kicked Gaara!
Kankuro and Temari were shocked. This was the first time they had seen someone who could hurt Gaara!
Gaara turned into sand and fell to the ground, then condensed back into his true form. Gaara's originally indifferent eyes became full of interest, but his mouth still remained very indifferent.
"Kankuro, don't embarrass me anymore, get out!"
"I..." Kankuro originally wanted to explain, but when he saw Gaara's murderous look in his eyes, he swallowed his words again.
Gaara never took his eyes off Sasuke. Kankuro still wanted to say something more but was pulled away by Temari.
Sasuke and Gaara just stood there, staring at each other for a full minute.
In the end, Sasuke was the first to look away. Sasuke thought to himself: Gaara is also a miserable person like Naruto.
"Remember my name, Gaara of the Sand Falls." Gaara said coldly.
Sasuke smiled slightly and responded: "Uchiha Sasuke. See you in the Chunin Exam..."
The few people separated quickly after that.
"Father, we have already met Uchiha Sasuke." Temari reported to Rasa in a panic.
"Well, how about Uchiha Sasuke?" Rasa asked with interest.
"That... Sasuke Uchiha is very strong... he hurt Gaara..."
Rasa's pupils trembled slightly.
"Can he hurt Gaara? What kind of genius is this? Why don't we have such talent in Sunagakure?" Rasa said angrily.
"Father... calm down..."
"Forget it, Konoha will be ours in a few days... This will be Sunagakure's territory!"
After saying that, Rasa stood up and asked, "Where is Orochimaru now? How is the preparation going?"
"Father, Orochimaru said that he has sent people to Konoha. Everything is proceeding as planned..."
A few days later, the Chunin Exam.
"Haha, do you want to take the Chunin Exam at this level?"
"I think you little brats should stop taking the exam and go home! People will die in the Chunin Exam! It's not a joke, do you understand?"
Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane blocked the door of Classroom 301, obstructing everyone from entering the "examination room". The two of them contemptuously pushed down Rock Lee, who rushed over, and glanced at everyone with disdain.
Lee was knocked down by Kotetsu's punch and fell to his knees...
"It hurts!"
Lee thought to himself: I want to make the world feel pain!!!
