Naruto's Endless Pretense

Cherry blossoms.

It is an elegant flower, a sad flower.

The happiest thing is to watch her bloom and then watch her fall.

As the saying goes, cherry blossoms last for seven days, and the flowering period of cherry blossoms is generally shorter.Although there are some coastal cities where cherry blossoms are in bloom all year round, most of them only bloom for a month and are at their peak beauty for only a week or two.

The cherry blossoms on Tanshu Street have been blooming for two full months, which is already a lucky thing.

When the cherry blossoms were in bloom, Sasuke arrived at Tanshu Street. After the cherry blossoms fell, Sasuke also returned to Konoha.

Konoha is still the same, and the village under the Hokage Rock is bustling, prosperous and lively.

"Zhangtai Liu, Zhangtai Liu, are they still green in the past?"

Sasuke looked at Konoha, which had been away for three months, and while sighing in his heart, he muttered two words for no reason.

"Oh, did you write the poem yourself? Are you missing something?"

These two lines were neither traditional classical poetry, nor did they conform to the five-seven-five format of Feiju. Kakashi directly thought that they were modern poems written by Sasuke himself.

"Ah, it's nothing. I just feel a little emotional after leaving Konoha for so long. I wonder what those former classmates are doing now."

Sasuke felt scared for a while, but luckily he didn't pronounce the last two sentences, otherwise Kakashi might even wonder if he was thinking about Temari again.

"Hey, it's Kakashi! Are you back from vacation?"

Izumo Kamizuki, who was guarding the gate, saw Kakashi and Sasuke taking the initiative to say hello.

"On vacation? You did lie down and rest for a long time."

Kakashi couldn't help but reflect on his rich yet tragic life over the past three months.

"Lie down?"

"Ah, are you okay? Izumo, why are you still looking at the gate? Where is Zitie?"

"It just happened to be our turn again. That guy Ziti was taken to drink. I'm the only one today."

"Ah, in that case I will report to the Hokage-sama after a while."

"No, please show mercy."

After not seeing each other for a long time, the two chatted happily for a while.

"It really hasn't changed, Konoha."

Sasuke watched Kakashi and Izumo Kamizuki joking like they did three months ago, and thousands of images flashed through his mind.This is the world I live in. I wonder if someone will pat me on the shoulder and make a joke?

"It hasn't changed." Kakashi agreed.

"No, no, today is different." Kamizuki Izumo objected, shaking his head.

"Kai was still on a mission when you left. He is taking a break today and is walking around Konoha fifty times while standing on his head. If you don't run away quickly, you can meet up soon."

Thinking of his evil friend who shouted about youth all day long, Kakashi had a headache. He didn't even say hello to Izumo, so he grabbed Sasuke and ran away.

Naruto Office.

The Third Hokage was using the telescope technique on the crystal ball in front of the table. His face was bloodshot, his smile was vulgar, and he had the tendency to drool from time to time.It was obvious that he was using public equipment for personal use and doing some dirty things.

Just when the third generation was watching with great interest and making vague exclamations from his mouth, there was a bang and the door of the office was kicked open.The Third Hokage was caught off guard and hurriedly hid the crystal ball, then pretended to be correcting a document.

"Uh-huh, Naruto. How many times have I told you! You have to knock before entering..."

"Third-generation old man, you took the document backwards."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was worthy of being the Hokage. After being exposed, he acted very calmly. He casually threw the documents in his hand into the trash can and looked at the person who came.

"Oh, it turns out it's Kakashi and Sasuke, you're back. I thought it was Naruto again. How about it, has Tsunade been found?"

It's really stiff to change the subject immediately.

However, Sasuke didn't expose it and just stayed aside and watched Kakashi and Hokage report on the situation along the way.

"I see, have you met Beiruhu and Orochimaru? It's really dangerous. Thank you for your hard work."

The Third Hokage picked up his pipe and started smoking. He looked at the chakra dagger hanging on Sasuke's waist with a look of reminiscence and regret in his eyes.

"Don't worry about Orochimaru for now, you should pay close attention to this Beiruhu and don't let him endanger the people of the Fire Country."

There is also the thick smoke produced by the pipe. He smokes every time when he is distressed. The third generation seems to like to use thick smoke to hide his emotions.

"Yes, Hokage-sama, leave it to me."

Kakashi took the initiative to ask for help, and it seemed that being KOed by Beilihu still left a bit of a shadow on him.

"No need, I will leave this matter to the ANBU. As for you, it remains unchanged. When Sasuke's current class graduates, you can become an instructor jounin."

"Yes! Hokage-sama."

Kakashi obeyed.

The third generation nodded and looked at Sasuke again.

"Sasuke, if you're okay, just go home and rest first. Remember to go to school tomorrow. The exam is coming soon. Don't let others take away your first place."

"Yes, yes, I'm going back first."

Sasuke replied impatiently.Why don't you find a good reason to drive someone away?Why is the first place being snatched away? Is it possible that in the past three months, some little strong person will be blessed by heaven and earth and become stronger than a jounin?

Watching Sasuke close the door to his office, the Third Hokage took a heavy drag on his pipe.

"Kakashi, how are you? This Uchiha Sasuke."

"No problem, Hokage-sama, and it can be said that he is very good. However, the reason why he left the village is still very vague, and it feels like he has to do it."

Kakashi, who was shrouded in smoke, also narrowed his eyes.

&n

bsp; "Is it blurry? Can't you even see it after three months?"

After leaving the Hokage's office, Sasuke planned to go home directly and have a good rest. He was always very tired when he was out.But Sasuke stopped before he left the Hokage Building.

To be precise, I was stopped.The man with his left hand on crutches, his right arm and half of his head wrapped in bandages, stood in the middle of the aisle, staring at him with his only remaining eye.

Darkness of Konoha, Danzo Shimura!

Why is he waiting here? Has he noticed himself?That's right, he is the mastermind of the Uchiha genocide, so of course he will always pay attention to himself.But why did he come this time?

"Grandpa, what are you doing here?"

Sasuke tried his best to act like a good boy.

"I'm waiting for you."

"Wait for me, we don't seem to know each other, right?"

Danzo walked up to Sasuke step by step on crutches, and his terrifying aura made Sasuke take a step back.

"I, Shimura Danzo, am the root of Konoha."

"root?"

"Well, Konoha is like a big tree, Naruto is the leaves bathing in the sun, and I am the roots buried deep in the ground."

"Where there is light, there is darkness. Silently guarding Konoha in the darkness is the will of fire that I insist on. Uchiha Sasuke, you have talents and abilities beyond ordinary people. Are you willing to follow me to protect the village?"

What the hell! As soon as we met, you didn’t even say a few words before you started looking for a younger brother. Are you possessed by Orochimaru, that human trafficker?

"Well, I don't quite understand what you mean, grandpa."

Sasuke knew in his heart that he could never join the Gen. Joining the Gen was equivalent to selling himself to Danzo. This was absolutely intolerable, no matter how good the reason was.Moreover, looking at what Danzo did, it was not at all like he said he was secretly guarding the village.

He is completely a careerist who wants to bask in the sun.For this reason, he could collude with Orochimaru, send people to assassinate the Hokage, and even lead Gen to hide underground when Pain attacked, just to become the Hokage.

Danzo does love Konoha, but in his heart only if he becomes Hokage can he lead Konoha to glory. Others who walk in front of him are obstacles to Konoha's prosperity.

While continuing to do things that harm Konoha, he was brainwashed and said that he was doing it all for Konoha.Sasuke was disgusted with this behavior of being a bitch and forcing a memorial arch.

You must at least be a little pure and keep a certain bottom line, otherwise you will not be a ninja, but a complete politician.

"Don't you understand? You should understand what I mean."

Danzo saw Sasuke pretending to be confused and took another step closer.Sasuke secretly prepared to take action as soon as Danzo forced himself to join the root.

Click.Kakashi came out of the Hokage's office.

"It's Danzo-sama. Why, do you have anything to do with Sasuke?"

"No. I just met him on the way to find the Hokage and just chatted for a few words."

Danzo gave Sasuke a deep look before walking towards the Hokage's office.

"Uchiha Sasuke, think carefully about what I said. If you want strength, you can come to me at any time."

Sasuke looked at the closed door and felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.If he was as strong as the Third Hokage, there would be no point in pretending to be a child in front of Danzo.

"system."

"Dimensional system, at your service."

"Didn't it say that Yin Escape will have a new evaluation mode and open other modules when it reaches level 10?"

"Answer the host, because this process takes a long time, it is recommended that the host wait until Yang Dun reaches level 10 before opening it."

The corner of Sasuke's mouth twitched. It seemed that he would have to talk to Konoha's jounin and senior officials from time to time.

Speaking of Jonin, there seems to be one nearby, and he is one of the best with a story to tell.Sasuke looked maliciously at Kakashi, who came to his rescue.Sasuke said that there was no pressure to repay kindness with hatred.

"What? Is there a problem?"

Kakashi didn't realize at all that he had been used as a source of experience points for Yang Escape.

On the other side, inside the Hokage's office.The Third Hokage was discussing with Danzo about Sasuke.

"Sarutobi, just as you guessed, this Uchiha Sasuke is not simple. He is very guarded, and he seems to know me. It seems that he has quite a secret."

"Well, maybe Itachi left him some message. I don't know for sure." Sandai began to smoke his pipe again.

"However, based on Kakashi's reaction, he should love the village and will not cause any harm to the village. With his talent, he can become the pillar of Konoha in the future."

Danzo sneered at the optimistic value judgment of the Third Generation.

"Sarutobi, you are gambling like this! Once he knows about the Uchiha clan, he will not be a pillar, but a fire. Why not give him to me, I can train him into a weapon that is completely dedicated to Konoha. "

Be dedicated to your strongest weapon!

The Third Hokage thought over and over again but rejected Danzo's proposal.

"I promised Itachi that I wouldn't touch Sasuke. If Itachi knows that Sasuke is under your control, I'm afraid he will really betray the village. The Akatsuki organization still needs a spy."

"I will hand him over to Kakashi. I believe Kakashi can lead Sasuke on the right path."

"Huh, I hope you don't regret your decision."

The Third Hokage sighed helplessly. Today's worries were doomed four years ago when he teamed up with Itachi to exterminate the Uchiha clan. After all, he was still unqualified as a Hokage.

"Okay, let's not talk about this matter anymore. Let's talk about the Suna Ninja. They seem to be dishonest again recently."

"If they are not honest, teach them a lesson. Next year's Chunin Examination is a good opportunity."
