I, Naruto, started out with Hinata feeding me imported candy.

Page 36

Kakashi's group walked along a country road.

Along the way, Kakashi and Tazuna also had some conversations.

As for Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura Haruno, the three of them followed behind Kakashi.

At this moment, Naruto tilted his head and looked around.

Suddenly, a blinding light reflected from not far away.

Naruto looked over and was shocked to see a puddle on the road ahead.

The sunlight that shone into the puddle just now became so dazzling after being reflected.

He rubbed his chin and squinted at the puddle.

"What was bound to happen will eventually happen."

Having read the original Naruto manga, he naturally knew that danger lurked in this puddle!

Two rogue ninja from Kirigakure are hiding among them!

After muttering something under his breath, Naruto looked away and moved away from the puddle.

at the same time.

Kakashi was walking at the very front.

He also noticed the puddle ahead, narrowed his eyes slightly, but didn't say anything more.

Just then, he caught a glimpse of Naruto changing his position out of the corner of his eye.

Immediately, his eyes narrowed, and he was secretly alarmed.

Did Naruto notice something unusual about the puddle?

Probably not?

Kakashi clearly observed that Naruto's route was very deliberate.

Even the best position within the entire squad.

If the team encounters any unexpected situation, Naruto can easily find a position where he can both attack and defend!

Did Naruto do it on purpose?

Kakashi didn't understand.

He then turned his gaze away and continued leading the way to the Land of Waves.

Just as the team was passing a puddle, something unexpected happened!

At that moment, two ninjas wielding chains jumped out of the puddle.

The two exchanged a glance, then instantly swung their iron chains and began binding Kakashi's body.

Their teamwork was perfect; the chains bound Kakashi tightly. The two were overjoyed and, without thinking, immediately started pulling the chains.

"Tsk!!!"

As the chains rapidly contracted, Kakashi was cut in half at the waist.

"Kakashi-sensei!!!"

Upon seeing this, Sakura Haruno, who was in the group, showed disbelief on her little face.

Sasuke, standing to the side, looked extremely solemn upon seeing this.

"Kill Tazuna quickly."

At this moment, after seeing Kakashi being dealt with, one of the two rogue ninjas from Kirigakure looked at Tazuna not far away and shouted.

After he finished speaking, his teammates, holding chains, immediately rushed towards Tazna.

"Sakura, protect Mr. Dazna."

Sasuke quickly recovered from his shock and gave a reminder to his companion.

Without waiting for Sakura Haruno's reply, he took out a kunai from his ninja tool pouch and began fighting the rogue ninja from Kirigakure.

Naruto appeared on a large tree trunk, seemingly out of nowhere.

He looked down at Sasuke, who was fighting against the rogue ninja from Kirigakure.

"Sasuke is quite strong; he fought the Hidden Mist Village to a standstill."

Just as he was clicking his tongue in amazement, a figure flashed over.

The person who appeared was none other than Kakashi, who had been "killed" earlier.

However, when he looked at Naruto, his eyes revealed astonishment.

When did Naruto get here?

Moreover, judging from his relaxed demeanor, it was as if he had anticipated everything.

Could it be... that Naruto really noticed something was wrong early on?

The more Kakashi thought about it, the more likely it seemed. He took a deep breath and gave Naruto a long look.

At this moment, he even wondered if Naruto was really as lazy as he usually was!

Naruto! Something's wrong!!!

He had to reconsider this.

At the same time, Naruto saw Kakashi arrive and pretended to be surprised.

"Hey, Kakashi-sensei, you're not dead? I thought you were."

"..." Kakashi's lips twitched, he rolled his eyes, and then looked down at Sasuke, who was fighting, and said, "Sasuke is fighting hard right now. As his teammate, aren't you going to cooperate with him and fight the enemy?"

"Hey, Sasuke is so strong, why would I need to cooperate with him?" Naruto waved his hand and said with a smile, "Besides, he'll probably just complain that I'm getting in his way."

Kakashi was utterly speechless.

Naruto really doesn't want to put in any effort at all.

Sending teammates to handle everything is such a bad idea!!!

At this time, the battle is still going on.

Even the rogue ninja from Kirigakure began to act ruthlessly, joining forces to deal with Sasuke.

For a moment, Sasuke was overwhelmed.

Seeing this, Naruto tilted his head and said to Kakashi beside him, "Kakashi-sensei, if you don't take action soon, Sasuke will die a tragic death."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi was quite speechless.

You can see that Sasuke is struggling, so why don't you go and help him?

Soon, Kakashi saw Naruto's lazy and listless appearance and sighed inwardly.

Too lazy to waste any more words, he dashed down and instantly subdued the rogue ninja from Kirigakure.

Seeing this, Naruto grinned and jumped down from the tree.

"Wow, Sasuke is amazing! That battle was really exciting."

As he spoke, Naruto clapped his hands repeatedly.

"..." Sasuke's lips twitched violently. Thinking of the scene where he fought two against one, he was so angry that he felt like he was going to vomit blood. "Naruto, where did you just run off to?"

"Guess," Naruto replied with a laugh.

Sasuke rolled his eyes at the sight.

Inside a dimly lit room.

A man with a white bandage wrapped around his face and a large knife on his shoulder sat on a sofa.

Standing in front of him was a person wearing a mask.

"Mr. Zabuza, I just received news that the Demon Brothers' ambush has failed."

Zabuza's face darkened upon hearing this.

"What?! The ambush failed?!"

"Hmm." The masked ninja nodded.

"Hmph, what a bunch of good-for-nothings! They can't even handle this little thing!!" Zabuza snorted coldly, his eyes filled with icy intent.

Just then, the door to the room opened, and a fat man wearing black sunglasses walked in.

Zabuza raised an eyebrow when he saw the person who had arrived.

"Kado, what are you doing here?"

Upon hearing this, Kado's fat face revealed a mocking expression.

"Zabuza, it seems the men you sent out are no good."

"Hmph, just prepare the money for me, and I'll personally bring you Tazuna's head." Zabuza didn't bother with any more nonsense and said directly.

"Money is no problem," Kado nodded, smiling as he said, "I just hope you don't end up not coming back."

Zabuza gave the other person a cold look and did not answer.

Then, he looked at the masked ninja beside him and said, "Bai, let's go."

Bai nodded.

"Ok."

(Sorry! Sorry! I wasn't in the mood today, so the update is late! Please give me flowers and votes!)

Chapter 33 Mutual Flattery! Zabuza and Kakashi are definitely flattering each other!

After traveling together, Kakashi, Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura Haruno, and Tazuna crossed a wide river by boat.

Soon, Kakashi and the others reached the shore.

At this moment, Tazuna from the group spoke up, saying, "We have now entered the Land of Waves."

"Okay." Kakashi nodded, then said to Team 7, "Let's go."

Afterwards, the group continued to venture deeper into the Land of Waves.
