After dealing with all the Root members, Sasuke and Sakura came to Naruto.

When they saw the frozen root members, a chill rose in their hearts.

Sakura looked at Naruto with concern, her eyes full of worry and concern. She asked softly, "Naruto, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Naruto grinned, showing off his white teeth, and waved his hand, saying, "I'm fine, Sakura. Don't worry about me."

Sasuke stood aside, watching Naruto and Sakura quietly, his face still with that stern expression. He asked in confusion: "Naruto, why did the people from the Root come to us?"

Naruto frowned, thought for a moment and then said, "They are all coming for me. The leader of the Root, Danzo, has been coveting the Nine-Tails in my body for a long time. In the past, there was still the Third Generation Grandfather, so he was afraid and didn't dare to act rashly. Now that the Third Generation Grandfather has passed away, without this layer of restraint, he naturally can't hold back and starts to get restless. That guy will do anything for power. In his eyes, the Nine-Tails in my body is an excellent tool that he can use to achieve his ulterior motives."

Sakura bit her lip and said worriedly, "What should we do now? Now that Danzo has started to act, he will definitely not give up easily."

Sasuke narrowed his eyes, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes: "Humph, then let him come. If he dares to continue to provoke me, I will not let him go."

Naruto patted Sasuke's shoulder and said, "Sasuke, go on with your mission. I'll deal with this matter once you're done."

After saying that, Naruto turned around and set off first, but the murderous intent hidden in his eyes was extremely strong. The murderous intent was like the lava of a volcano about to erupt, hot and dangerous. His mind kept surfacing what Danzo had done, and he repeatedly found trouble with him.

At this time, Sasuke and Sakura looked at Naruto's back as he left. They could feel the suppressed emotions emanating from Naruto. Sasuke frowned slightly. He knew that Naruto was really angry this time. Sakura bit her lip and prayed silently for Naruto in her heart. At the same time, she was also looking forward to their ability to complete the mission as soon as possible and rush back to face the coming storm with Naruto.

Time always passed quickly, and a few days later, Naruto and his companions successfully completed the mission. They returned to the village with tired but satisfied expressions.

Naruto dragged his slightly heavy steps, but his heart was full of worry about Danzo. In the past few days, although he was fully committed to the mission, whenever he had some free time, Danzo's hateful face would appear in his mind.

Sasuke's eyes were still stern, but at the moment of completing the task, a glimmer of relief flashed in his eyes. He walked to Naruto, patted Naruto's shoulder and said, "The mission is completed. Now we can deal with Danzo's matter properly."

Sakura stretched out her body, her hair was a little messy, her face was a little dusty, but her eyes were bright and determined. She said, "Yes, Naruto, let's go meet Danzo together. We can't let him continue to do evil."

Naruto nodded slightly, and the murderous intent hidden deep in his eyes quietly emerged again: "Don't be in a hurry. Go and see if Shikamaru and the others are out on a mission. We haven't been together for a long time. Let's get together first."

Sasuke frowned slightly and said in confusion: "Naruto, now is not the time to relax. The matter of Danzo is urgent."

Naruto waved his hand, a smile spreading across his face, "I know it in my heart, but we also need to make some adjustments to get ourselves back to our best condition."

Sakura nodded repeatedly in agreement: "Naruto is right, we have just completed a difficult mission and are exhausted both physically and mentally. We should indeed adjust our state so that we can perform better when facing Danzo later."

So Sasuke and Sakura began to ask around about Shikamaru and the others. Fortunately, Shikamaru, Choji, Ino and the others were all in the village and were not out on a mission. They quickly got in touch with these partners, and everyone seemed particularly excited when they heard the news of the gathering.

Everyone gathered at the familiar old place in the village. This was the first gathering of the Twelve Young Masters of Konoha. Tenten, Ningci and Rock Lee joined the gathering for the first time. After the baptism of the Chunin Exam, everyone was already very familiar with each other. Everyone was delighted to have these three friends join.

Neji completely abandoned his former arrogance, with a faint smile on his face. He gently patted Lee's shoulder and said cheerfully, "It's rare for so many people to gather here today, we must relax as much as we can." Lee's face flushed with excitement, and he nodded vigorously, saying loudly, "Yes, this is a rare happy time for us." Tenten blinked her bright eyes and looked at everyone with curiosity.

After entering the party venue, everyone sat in a circle. Soon, the atmosphere became lively. Hinata blushed and whispered to Sakura beside her, occasionally casting a glance at Naruto. Kiba and Akamaru were playing and laughing nearby, occasionally bursting into hearty laughter.

Naruto was busy on the side, preparing delicious food for everyone. He skillfully flipped the meat on the grill, and the sizzling sound and the tempting aroma filled the air. Naruto looked up from time to time, looking at the cheerful appearance of his friends, with a happy smile on his face.

"Naruto, is the barbecue ready? I'm dying of greed!" Choji shouted loudly, staring at the grill. Akamaru in the distance was also barking, as if agreeing with Choji's words.

"It's almost there, just wait a little longer." Naruto responded with a smile.

At this time, Sasuke came over, looked at the golden and shiny barbecue on the grill, and nodded slightly. Then he said, "Naruto, do you need my help?" Sasuke rarely offered to help.

Naruto waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need, Sasuke, just go and have fun with everyone, I will take care of these things."

Finally, all the barbecue was done, and Naruto brought the plates of barbecue to the table. Everyone immediately couldn't wait to start feasting.

"Wow, Naruto, your cooking skills are amazing!" Tenten gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely while eating barbecue.

"Hehe, as long as everyone likes it." Naruto scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly.

In this cheerful atmosphere, everyone enjoyed the food while sharing stories and feelings with each other. Naruto looked at his friends enjoying themselves and cherished this rare time in his heart. He felt that after this night, such a carefree time would be hard to have again, so he cherished every minute and every second with his friends.
