Before we knew it, there was only one day left until the final round of the Chunin Exam.
At Sakura's reminder, everyone returned to the village that day, preparing to recuperate for tomorrow's competition.
"It seems that the training results these days are very good."
At Goku's house, Kakashi saw Naruto and the other three looking very energetic and couldn't help but joked.
"Hey, Mr. Kakashi, we learned a great move this time!"
Naruto held his head proudly.
"Ultimate move? I see. It looks like Goku has taught you something good again."
Kakashi raised an eyebrow, feeling somewhat curious about the ultimate move that Naruto mentioned.
You have to know that the moves that Goku taught Naruto and the others were all extraordinary.
For example, the gas bomb looks very similar to the Rasengan, but its maneuverability is much greater than that.
Another example is the Sun Fist. Although it has no real offensive power, once the light comes out, anyone who is not prepared will be shocked.
Blind for a long time.
During this period, even a ninja with a strong sense of perception would find it difficult to accurately sense his own location when his eyes were stinging.
At this moment, it is a perfect opportunity for our side to launch a sneak attack or escape.
So in Kakashi's opinion, this move is even more useful than the energy bomb.
Seeing Kakashi's curious look, Naruto deliberately kept him in suspense.
"Hey, Mr. Kakashi, I won't tell you what this ultimate move is for now. I'll see if I have a chance to use it tomorrow to open your eyes."
"Yes, Mr. Kakashi, you can look forward to it!" Sakura also echoed. Sasuke and Rock Lee also looked at Kakashi with a smile on their faces.
"Hehe, you guys have learned to keep people in suspense now."
Kakashi curled the corners of his mouth.
"Since you said so, Naruto, I'll be waiting for you tomorrow."
"Knock, knock, knock!*
Just then, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Excuse me, is this Mr. Sun's home?"
Goku, who was lying on the sofa quietly listening to the conversation between Naruto and Kakashi, instantly became alert when he heard the voice and rushed out the door.
Naruto and the others were also delighted and followed them out the door.
In the courtyard, Goku opened the door and said happily to the middle-aged man outside: "You are finally here. I am almost starving to death!"
The middle-aged man laughed and said, "Hahaha, sorry, sorry, I was delayed because I went to buy some new equipment and new ingredients."
After saying that, he walked into the courtyard, took out two storage scrolls, and then began the ritual.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In an instant, the courtyard was filled with all kinds of cooking utensils and a wide variety of ingredients.
"Pull up your spirits and start working. This is our first initiative and we must complete it well to satisfy our guests."
The middle-aged man clapped his hands and spoke loudly to the dozen or so men who were following behind him with solemn expressions.
"yes!"
After the subordinates responded in unison, they immediately began to process the ingredients and cook the food.
After seeing his men move quickly, the middle-aged man looked at Goku and said with a smile: "Mr. Sun, you and
Other guests can go in and wait, and the dishes will be served soon."
"Hey, okay!"
Looking at the food all over the floor, with a few delicious aromas in between, Goku could only feel his saliva watering.
According to past custom, they should be having a feast in a restaurant in the village.
But today, Goku suddenly thought, could we ask the restaurant staff to come to the house and prepare the dishes?
The reason he thought so was that Bulma often held grand banquets at her house in the past, which left a deep impression on him.
As soon as they heard his idea, Naruto and the others were shocked, because in their knowledge, they had never heard of having a restaurant chef come to the door to prepare dishes.
After careful consideration, they all felt that it was feasible, so they went to a restaurant they frequently visited and communicated with the owner, the middle-aged man in front of them.
After learning that the price could be increased by 1.5 times, the middle-aged man immediately decided that they would accept the order and would definitely ensure that the customer would be satisfied!
So we have this scene now.
"Come on, Master Goku, let's go in and wait."
Sakura glanced at the chefs who were working hard in the courtyard, then pushed Goku into the house.
What a pity, according to what Teacher Goku described, they should be waiting for their meal in the courtyard now.
After all, dining in the courtyard is more romantic than dining indoors.
But the courtyard at Teacher Goku's home was not big enough. After putting all these ingredients and utensils, there was no space left for them to eat.
Just as Goku and his friends were enjoying the delicious food at home, an important guest arrived outside the gate of Konoha Village.
"Welcome, Lord Kazekage, to our Konoha. It's been a long journey, and I'm really sorry for your hard work."
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had received the news long ago, stood in front of the door with a smile and greeted the Fourth Kazekage Rasa who had come from afar.
"Haha, Mr. Hokage, you have been waiting for us here for a long time. Thank you for your hard work." Luo Sha also responded with a smile.
"Let's go, Lord Kazekage. It is not the way for us in Konoha to let you stay here."
"We have prepared a dinner for you, and we invite you and your men to attend."
Sarutobi Hiruzen gestured with his hand.
"Then I'd rather obey you than be disrespectful."
On the other side, in a dark basement, after receiving the news that Luo Sha had arrived in Konoha, Danzo frowned in confusion.
"Why did Orochimaru come here so early? Isn't he afraid of exposing his identity?"
In the plan he and Orochimaru conspired, Sand Village was just a pawn in their plan to collapse Konoha. In order to control this pawn, they decided to assassinate the Fourth Kazekage Rasa before he arrived in Konoha, and then Orochimaru would replace him to watch the Chunin Exam.
By doing so, it can ensure that the other ninjas of Sand Village will follow the plan and avoid the conflict between Rasa and Sarutobi.
After reaching an agreement, they would destroy the plan by crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.
He can also approach Sarutobi Hiruzen openly, trap him and kill him after the plan starts.
It can be said to kill two birds with one stone!
Since Rasa was assassinated, Orochimaru could not arrive in Konoha early.
Because there are still ninjas from the Sand Village in Konoha.
Once they learn that their own Kazekage has arrived in Konoha, these people will definitely go to see him.
During this process, if a Sand Ninja who was familiar with the Kazekage discovered something was wrong, then the fact that Orochimaru replaced the Kazekage would be exposed.
By then, let alone the plan going smoothly, whether Orochimaru can escape from the joint siege of Konoha and Sand Village is unknown.
Not necessarily.
In the plan he and Orochimaru conspired, Sand Village was just a pawn in their plan to collapse Konoha.
In order to control this chess piece, they decided to assassinate the Fourth Kazekage Rasa before he arrived in Konoha, and then have Orochimaru take his place to watch the Chunin Exam.
By doing so, it can ensure that the other ninjas of Sand Village will proceed according to the plan, and avoid the situation where Rasa and Sarutobi Hiruzen reach an agreement and then destroy the plan.
He can also approach Sarutobi Hiruzen openly, trap him and kill him after the plan starts.
It can be said to kill two birds with one stone!
Since Rasa was assassinated, Orochimaru could not arrive in Konoha early.
Because there are still ninjas from the Sand Village in Konoha.
Once they learn that their own Lord Kazekage has arrived in Konoha, these people will definitely go to meet him.
During this process, if a Sand Ninja who was familiar with the Kazekage discovered something was wrong, then the fact that Orochimaru replaced the Kazekage would be exposed.
By then, let alone the smooth implementation of the plan, it is not certain whether Orochimaru can escape from the joint siege of Konoha and Sunagakure.
Therefore, Danzo is now very confused.
According to their plan, Orochimaru should arrive before the final match starts tomorrow, so as to avoid contact with the Sand Ninjas and ensure that his identity will not be exposed to the greatest extent.
But why did Orochimaru arrive in Konoha now?
