Talent Entry Ninja of Konoha

Land of Waves

On the newly built bridge

Team seven is in charge of protecting the workers who are building the bridge.

"Have you heard? That Gato seems to have been killed."

"Really? Gato is dead?"

"I also heard that the employees of Gato's Company seemed to have run away. I heard that a powerful ninja came to the door."

"Haha! Deserved death! Gato has such a day too!"

"Long live Lord Ninja!! He got rid of that big villain Gato for us! I want to build a statue for him, and it will stand on this bridge!"

"That's right, that's our great hero! He must be remembered by future generations!"

Hearing the workers' discussions, Sakura asked Kakashi who was leaning on crutches, "Kakashi-sensei, they said that Gato died, is it true?"

"Ah? It seems to be true."

Kakashi, who was looking down at the book, raised his head when he heard the words.

After thinking for a while, he said, "No matter what, we still have to be careful of another attack by Zabuza at any time."

"Although Gato is dead, Zabuza has a rebellious temper and is unpredictable. Maybe he wants to take revenge because he lost to me last time."

Kakashi was right. Zabuza really thought so at the beginning.

But under Haku's repeated "persuasion", he still agreed to leave the land of waves.

Kakashi probably didn't expect that Zabuza would give up revenge because of the persuasion of his subordinates.

In the following few days.

The construction of the new bridge went surprisingly smoothly.

Because Gato was killed, no one came to stop the construction of the bridge.

Even because of this, more residents of the land of waves came to join in the work of building the bridge, which greatly accelerated the progress of the construction of the bridge.

So much so that the bridge was built in just six days.

On the newly built bridge.

At the head of the bridge on the side of the land of waves, there was a statue which was more than ten meters high.

The statue was carved out of rock.

The best sculptor in the land of waves had personally made this.

It was very lifelike, and a work of art.

"I'm so envious. It would be great if someone erected a statue for me sometime."

Naruto looked up at the statue enviously.

"Isn't your dream to become the Hokage? As long as you become the Hokage, you will naturally be able to have your own statue on the Hokage Rock."

Kakashi glanced at Naruto and said flatly.

At this time, Sakura on the side suddenly asked suspiciously, "But, why do I think this person doesn't look like a good person based on his attire?"

Long windbreaker, wearing a mask.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the image that a hero should have.

"Sakura, please don't say this in front of the people of the Land of Waves, or you will be beaten."

Kakashi shook his head and said.

In fact, he also felt that based on this person's attire, he was not a good person.

And there was always a feeling of déjà vu.

But he couldn't remember where he had seen this guy.

"Kakashi-sensei, I'm not Naruto."

Sakura said while crossing her arms.

"Sakura, did you call me?"

Naruto leaned his head over and asked with a giggle.

"Go away!"

Sakura angrily pushed Naruto away.

"Let's go, our mission is done, it's time to go back." Kakashi said at this time.

He glanced at Sasuke who was silent all the time.

This kid's face was gloomy and ugly.

"Damn it! That guy also ran away!"

Sasuke was still angry that the opponent he was looking forward to had run away.

Of course, the opponent he was looking forward to was not Zabuza, but the one who had rescued Zabuza last time.

Kakashi had said before that that person's strength was above him and Naruto.

Sasuke was not convinced.

After all, during this period of time, his strength had improved a lot.

His winning percentage against Naruto had increased from 50-50 to 70-30.

So he felt confident.

He really wanted to prove his ability to Kakashi.

He thought that he was better than that guy who dared not show his true colors.

But in the end, that guy just ran away.

What kind of rubbish is that guy?

Sasuke had a dark face and was in a very bad mood.

But Naruto, who didn't notice it came over with a smile at this moment.

"Sasuke, we are going back to the village, are you happy?"

Sasuke pushed him away angrily.

"After returning to the village, you will have to do those D-rank missions again, are you happy?"

He said coldly.

"Ah!! No!!!"

When Naruto heard it, his expression changed drastically and he shouted.

Kakashi covered his ears, and rolled his eyes helplessly.

Next day

Team seven returned to Konoha.

"Let's disband. I'll hand in the mission, you guys go back and have a rest, and continue with the new mission tomorrow."

After Kakashi spoke, he disappeared instantly.

"Sasuke, shall we go get something to eat?"

Sakura walked over shyly and invited Sasuke to eat together.

"No, I'm going home to train."

Sasuke said something coldly, turned and left directly.

"Eh?"

Sakura froze for a moment.

She thought that after this mission, her relationship with Sasuke had gotten closer.

But why had Sasuke's attitude become so indifferent in these two days?

Just when Sakura was puzzled, a head came over.

It was Naruto!

"Sakura, why don't we go eat together?" Naruto said with a giggle.

"No, I'm going home to rest!"

Sakura bypassed Naruto nonchalantly and went straight home.

"Ah?! Don't you want to eat?"

Naruto stood there a little disappointed.

At this time!

"Naruto, are you back?"

"Ryosuke!"

Naruto, who was still lost just now, turned around and saw that Ryosuke who was following Ino was standing not far behind him and looking at him.

"Ryosuke, and Ino."

Naruto happily ran over and said, "Ryosuke, let me tell you, the mission we performed this time was amazing!"

Ryosuke smiled and looked at Naruto who kept describing how he performed bravely in the mission.

After a while, Naruto finally finished talking about the 300-round battle between himself and Zabuza, and then looked curiously at Ryosuke and Ino.

"Ryosuke, are you dating Ino?" He asked stupidly.

"That's right, we are on vacation." Ryosuke said.
