Konoha's dog is happy

6 month 15 day.

After Shikamaru finished handling his daily affairs today, he came to the Ichiraku Main Store very early.

It was a full two hours earlier than the originally scheduled seven o'clock.

When he came to the store, he saw Saitama and Iris who had been staying in the store today.

Saitama and Shikamaru went to the rooftop to check out the layout, and after confirming that there was no problem, they went to the lobby on the first floor to wait.

By 06:30, other friends also arrived.

Apart from these friends, the only adult Shikamaru hired was his teacher Asuma.

Even Saitama will not be full until tomorrow.

The party was just like their usual birthday parties, with blessings and laughter.

After Shikamaru's party, Saitama was also ready to speed up Sasuke's departure from the village.

As for some boring tasks that were supposed to be there, he was also prepared to let Sasuke skip them.

The reason why he waited until this time was so that Sasuke could leave without any regrets.

Another thing is the fateful showdown between Sasuke and Naruto.

Although Saitama does not believe in this fate, he feels that this is also the best time for Sasuke to evolve into Sanmagatama.

In Shuba Town, when Itachi showed Sasuke a short movie, he actually told Sasuke about the stone monument of Nanga Shrine.

After Sasuke saw it, his hatred deepened.

But even so, in the battle between Sasuke and Naruto, both sides will definitely not make an absolute death blow.

After Gin got the Kusanagi sword used in Sasuke's original work, he returned directly to Konoha.

After making all preparations, he also sent a message to Orochimaru.

One sunny morning, after setting up a hiding place for the four sound ninjas, Gin teleported directly to Sasuke.

The reason why he dared to teleport directly was because he got the news about the main body.

At this point, Sasuke had finished his meal and went to the rock area to continue training his Chidori.

Sasuke, who hoped to advance Chidori to Raikiri as soon as possible, kept practicing even when Kakashi was injured and unable to guide him.

Seeing Gin suddenly appearing next to him, Sasuke spoke first.

"Ah Yin, is it time?"

"Um"

"Then take me home first, I have one more thing to do."

"it is good"

After Gin nodded, he grabbed Sasuke and teleported back to Minato's house.

Sasuke was not surprised to see him coming directly into the bedroom.

He walked to his bed, pulled out a letter from the pillow, and placed it on Naruto's bed.

Sasuke had written this letter a long time ago and was only waiting to take it out today.

This letter can be said to be a letter of separation or a letter of explanation.

In his letter, besides mentioning Naruto, the only one mentioned was Saitama.

In the entire Konoha, the two people Sasuke couldn't bear to part with the most were these two people.

After simply packing a few summer clothes, Sasuke walked around the entire house.

Except for the locked master bedroom of the Fourth Hokage and his wife, who did not enter, he stayed in every place for a moment.

Looking at this second home where he had lived for many years, he finally made up his mind.

Now that he has reached this moment, there is no way he can back down anymore.

These days, whenever he wanted to retreat, he thought of that man.

Thinking of that fantasy made him miserable for several days.

He knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead was, how reluctant he was, and how incomprehensible Naruto and Saitama were, he had to take that step.

He believes that when he returns, he will be a better version of himself and no longer confused.

After confirming again that the letter was put away, he touched the key in his pocket before letting Ah Yin hug him and leave directly.

The moment Sasuke left, Saitama also asked Naruto to follow him to Minato's house on the pretext of helping them clean up.

After entering the gate, Saitama immediately asked Naruto to remove the quilt cover.

In this way, under Saitama's arrangement, Naruto discovered the letter left by Sasuke as quickly as possible.

"Naruto, Brother Saitama, when you see this letter, I have already left.

My leaving does not mean that I betrayed Konoha, I just wanted to pursue power.

Naruto, you have also seen how powerful Uchiha Itachi is.

In order to defeat him, I have been training Chidori hard during this time.

Except for Chidori, I can no longer learn any powerful moves in Konoha, so it will be difficult to become more powerful.

Therefore, I also had to make this painful decision.

But don't worry, Naruto, I left with the silver-haired young man that day, so there won't be any danger.

If I don't pursue powerful power, I, the weak, will never know the true truth behind the genocide of the Uchiha clan.

I don’t want to live in confusion forever in my future life.

Naruto, actually you are the same.

Regarding your parents, we don’t know if the higher-ups in Konoha know about it.

But at least now you and I have no access to these truths.

But you and I both know that you have a powerful tailed beast in your body, so your identity must be no ordinary orphan.

Otherwise, someone as busy as the Third Hokage would not be able to take care of you like that.

In this cruel ninja world, only with strong strength can we be qualified to pursue the truth.

I am now going to boldly pursue my truth, and I hope you won’t give up on pursuing yours either.

Actually, I still have a lot to say to you and Saitama-nii, but I don’t know what to say.

I hope that when Saitama-san reads this letter, he won’t blame me for leaving without saying goodbye.

Thank you all so much.

You are my last two relatives, I hope you can understand me.

As long as I am still alive, I will definitely come back to you in the future, believe me.

Goodbye, my beloved relatives"

While Naruto was immersed in this letter, Saitama came to him gently.

After realizing that Naruto had finished reading the letter, Saitama gently placed a hand on his shoulder.

Feeling the strength coming from his shoulders, Naruto slowly turned his head.

After staring at Saitama for a long time, he said softly.

"Brother Saitama, Sasuke has left Konoha."

"Um"

At this time, Saitama didn't know what to say to comfort Naruto.

But in order to arrange the fight between these two little guys, Saitama still has to say something.

"Naruto, when I went to the bathroom just now, I saw water stains in the bathroom. Sasuke shouldn't have been gone long."

"Why don't you try to chase him and ask him about the specific situation."

"I'm really worried about him leaving alone like this."

"right"

Naruto, who was immersed in sadness, suddenly figured it out.

"No matter what Sasuke's letter is about, I have to ask him face to face."

"If this is really the case, I will capture him and say goodbye to you, Saitama-san."

"This guy is too willful and has no regard for our feelings at all."

"What kind of relatives are you talking about? Are there any people who are such relatives?"

As Naruto spoke, his voice began to choke.

After calming down, Naruto rushed directly outside the house.

He didn't know how Sasuke got out of the village without anyone else noticing.

But if Naruto wants to leave the village, he must first obtain the village's consent.

Therefore, he ran directly towards the Hokage Building. Even if the matter was urgent, he did not make a report first.

"Hokage-sama, there is something I want to get rid of you"

When Naruto arrived at the Hokage's office, he shouted out and handed Sasuke's letter to Tsunade.

After Tsunade read the letter, she looked up at Naruto. Before she could say anything, Naruto spoke first.

"Hokage-sama, I hope you will let me leave the village alone."

"I want to talk to Sasuke personally first. If things are really as stated in the letter, I hope you, Hokage-sama, can let him go."

Tsunade stared at Naruto for half a minute and expressed her question.

"You have met the silver-haired young man who took him away mentioned in Sasuke's letter before."

"Um"

After Naruto nodded slightly, he began to explain what happened that day.

Through Naruto's explanation, Tsunade also learned about what happened to them in Suba Town.

Even so, Tsunade still felt uneasy.

"If you chase me alone, do you think the silver-haired young man will hurt you?"

Naruto had thought about this problem on the way here.

However, Naruto, who still wanted to chase him alone, decided to be a little panicked.

"Looking at the way he looked like Sasuke that day, I felt he was a good person."

"If I explain why I'm here, I think he won't make things difficult for me."

Tsunade pondered again.

Naruto was so important that she had to think more about it.

But after she thought that Jiraiya had also met the silver-haired young man, she had an idea.

After calling an ANBU ninja, she whispered a few words and let him leave.

"Naruto, I asked Jiraiya to accompany you. I hope you try not to fight."

"As for whether Sasuke stays or goes, you and Jiraiya can decide on your own."

"If you let him go voluntarily, I will treat him as if he is on a long-term mission."

"If he leaves by force, I will judge him as a traitor."

"What about this proposal?"

Without thinking, Naruto bowed to Tsunade.

"Thank you Grandma Tsunade"
