Chapter 160
Uzumaki Naruto was now even better at disguising and packaging himself.
The entire Konoha would gradually be enveloped in his malice.
"Well then, that's good... Let's begin."
Naruto's lips curved upwards, revealing a benevolent smile.
Sakura, feeling encouraged, was greatly boosted in confidence, and Sako also started to consider teamwork.
Watching Naruto unite his two teammates at light speed, Kakashi felt that... Naruto's dream of becoming the Seventh Hokage seemed... not to be an illusion.
"Naruto, I believe you will become Hokage."
Whispering this in his heart, Kakashi announced the start.
Whoosh!
The three quickly left the spot and hid behind the bushes.
"Later, I'll use Taijutsu to tie him down. Sakura will provide cover with long-range throws, and Sakowill take the opportunity to flank him..."
Naruto gestured the upcoming tactical distribution to the two girls.
"Mhm..."
They nodded, and the three quickly sprang into action... Watching Naruto charge straight at him, Kakashi turned to look: "One of the Ninja tactical insights... Taijutsu."
Bang!
Naruto threw a punch, his immense strength directly forcing Kakashi back.
Kakashi, whose feet left tracks on the ground, was immediately shocked by Naruto's power.
Just then, Sakura threw three Kunai in a triangular formation.
Kakashi dodged to the side, and Sako took the opportunity to appear behind him, reaching for the bell.
The three's cooperation was seamless.
And Kakashi was almost deprived of the bell.
However... this Sako was merely an afterimage.
"Clone Technique?"
Kakashi looked at this low-level E-rank Ninjutsu in disbelief.
But the real Sako... "Fire Release..."
Sako, forming hand signs, had an even colder expression on her face.
"Great Fireball Technique!!!"
Blazing flames burst through the bushes, instantly engulfing Kakashi.
A huge fireball continued to burn on the ground, its fiery red flames illuminating the air.
"Ni-Ninjutsu?! Kakashi-sensei was killed~~~!" Sakura immediately covered her cheeks and shrieked.
"Ninja insight number two, Ninjutsu."
Kakashi appeared from the other side; what was burned was merely a log.
However... "To be able to use the Great Fireball at this age, and with such power..."
Kakashi couldn't help but think of Shunshin Shisui.
"Naruto, it's your turn."
Sako, however, looked at Naruto, not at all in a hurry.
Then, Kakashi saw Naruto instantly appear before him.
The scarlet vertical pupils made Kakashimomentarily lose focus.
It was in that instant that Naruto took the bell.
"Ni-Nine-Tailed..."
Cold sweat dripped from Kakashi's forehead.
He wasn't afraid of Naruto.
But he was afraid of Naruto going berserk.
"We got the bell, Kakashi-sensei."
Naruto's eyes returned to blue, revealing a gentle smile.
That "darkness" from just now seemed like an illusion... Chapter 105. Naruto's Medical Aftercare for Hazuki.
"So, what if you got it?"
Kakashi calmed himself and asked indifferently.
"Now the three of you can discuss who will withdraw. After all, only two people can qualify to pass."
In a calm tone, Kakashi said something terrifying.
"I am an avenger, I absolutely cannot stop here..."
Sako's eyes were firm, and she had no intention of withdrawing.
"I... I... as expected..." Sakura, who was beside her, quickly accepted the fact that she was a burden.
Among the three, her strength was the weakest.
Even if she became a teammate later, she would definitely drag Sasuke-kun down.
But Naruto... if he was with Sasuke-kun, there would definitely be no problem.
And then.
Naruto gave the bells to Sako and Sakurarespectively.
Sako, Sakura: "Naruto?!"
"It's okay, even if I don't pass this time, I can convince the Hokage Old Man later through my own efforts. After all, my relationship with the Hokage Old Man is very strong. Just like the Geningraduation exam, I still became a true Ninja in the end..."
Naruto reassured them.
"But... you~~."
Naruto pointed at the two girls.
"You are comrades, remember that."
As he spoke, Naruto stepped backward, a faint smile on his lips giving off an infinite sense of confidence.
"Follow your own path, don't give up! Sako... and you, Sakura. Keep it up..."
Naruto's actions made Kakashi unable to watch any longer.
Because he felt he had been too harsh.
"Minato's child... is truly kind and understanding."
Kakashi sighed in his heart again.
Recalling those years.
He, Obito, and Rin, the three of them, competed for the bells together.
He used Obito and Rin, and ultimately got the bell.
At that time, Minato-sensei saw his lone wolf problem, but didn't point it out.
Which led to him making such a big mistake later... Of course, that wasn't the kind Minato-sensei's fault.
"Obito, Rin... did you see this?"
Kakashi took a deep breath, looking up at Naruto, who was encouraging Sako and Sakura not to give up.
Giving his own chance to others, this child... had already gained the approval of Sako and Sakura.
"Alright, all three of you... have passed."
Kakashi announced.
His eyes narrowed into crescents.
With a bright smile, Kakashi said to the three, "Let's go have afternoon dessert together."
"Yay~~~!"
After a moment of dazed, Sakura burst into cheers.
She even pulled Naruto, excitedly embracing him.
In just half a day, Sakura's attitude towards Narutohad drastically changed.
And the smiling Naruto also joined the team, with Sakura on his left and Sako on his right.
You... are my Uzumaki Naruto's wings.
Meanwhile, in the bushes nearby.
Obito, hiding there, was secretly observing everything.
"Hmph... I saw it... Kakashi..."
Obito stated that he saw it.
With his own eyes.
He personally witnessed Uzumaki Naruto's ability to win people over.
"Just as formidable as his father, Minato Namikaze..."
White Zetsu: "Obito, what are you going to do next?"
Obito: "There's nothing much to do during this time, so I'll just keep observing these three kids..."
Obito found new entertainment... That night.
The Hyuga Clan held a banquet, inviting Naruto as a guest.
To celebrate Naruto becoming a true Ninja, Hyuga Hiashi did not hesitate to spend some money and resources.
At the same time, he was also celebrating with Hinata.
"Naruto-kun, congratulations..."
Hyuga Hiashi raised his cup for a toast.
Naruto waved his hand, saying apologetically, "I've made Hiashi-ojisan spend money again..."
Hinata, kneeling at the side, had dressed up nicely today.
Because of the previous experience, she felt she had performed too poorly.
She had actually run away directly from Naruto-kun's house.
To cheer herself up, Hinata even wore a red flower in her hair.
However, Hinata, who had fully dressed up, did not attract Naruto's attention.
Naruto's attention was entirely on the gentle and graceful Hyuga Hazuki... who was Hinata's mother~.
