"Teacher Kakashi, we are back."

Naruto raised his hand and called to Kakashi who was sitting outside the house.

Kakashi looked up after hearing the call, and his eyes met Naruto's.

He noticed the mature woman standing next to Naruto, and his eyes lit up. He immediately realized that this woman was the target of this plan - Lady Tsunade.

Kakashi stood up quickly. He saw Tsunade walking with Naruto, and guessed that Naruto should have completed the task.

"You must be Hatake Kakashi, the brat of the Hatake family."

Tsunade walked up to Kakashi, she patted Kakashi's shoulder gently, and teased with a slight smile on her face:"I heard from Naruto that Kakashi, you are relatively weak. You must strengthen your physical exercise in the future. After all, Konoha Village still needs outstanding talents like you."

Tsunade's eyes flashed with a hint of playfulness, and it was obvious that she was deliberately teasing Kakashi.

Hearing Tsunade's voice, Shizune immediately trotted out of the room. The first time she saw Tsunade, she wanted to ask:"Sister Tsunade, you——"

Tsunade smiled slightly and nodded slightly to Shizune. Shizune understood what she meant. From Tsunade's eyes, she saw the high-spirited Tsunade-sama who once was back.

Facing Tsunade's teasing, Kakashi scratched his head a little embarrassedly. He rolled his eyes at Naruto speechlessly, then smiled and replied:"You are Tsunade-sama - no, now I call you Hokage-sama, I will pay more attention to training."

Naruto looked confused and couldn't remember when he said such a thing."Hahahaha, great! Then let's set off and rush back to Konoha Village immediately. Shizune, hurry up and pack everything up. Don't let those guys notice anything unusual!"

Tsunade laughed proudly. She is now the [Sixth Hokage]. As for the gambling debts......What is that?

Shizune shook her head helplessly, but she was relieved deep in her heart. She was secretly glad that the beloved Tsunade finally found the way forward.

After everything was ready, Kakashi led the team members to embark on the journey home with Tsunade and Shizune.

Along the way, Tsunade asked Kakashi about the recent situation of Konoha Village and thought deeply about the current situation.

Kakashi also told Tsunade about his experience with the Akatsuki organization during the journey.

Tsunade thought for a moment, and then said to everyone with a serious expression:"It seems that it is time to make a change. Perhaps the entire ninja world is about to usher in a huge change. Before that, Konoha must quickly improve its strength." Tsunade

's words weighed heavily on everyone's heart. They knew that the challenges they faced in the future would be extremely arduous.

Naruto looked at Sasuke on the side and sighed in his heart.

The 12-year-old Sasuke has now shown extraordinary strength, but he is still far from being a top powerhouse.

But Naruto knew that he was not a good teacher. If he wanted Sasuke to achieve a qualitative leap, he would have to rely on the help of Orochimaru. As night fell, everyone went to rest after dinner.

However, Naruto tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. Finally, he got up and walked towards Sasuke.

He walked quietly to Sasuke's side and patted his shoulder gently. Sasuke opened his eyes in a daze, and when he saw Naruto, his brows frowned slightly:"Naruto, why are you still not sleeping so late?"

Naruto smiled slightly, and then pulled Sasuke into the spiritual space.

Naruto stared at Sasuke quietly and said slowly:"Sasuke, after so many battles, do you feel anything?"

He was full of expectations, looking forward to making progress together with this close friend, fighting side by side, and facing countless powerful enemies in the future.

Sasuke thought for a moment, then slowly answered:"Although I have mastered the use of Chidori and Sharingan, I still feel powerless when I encounter a strong enemy."

After saying that, Sasuke's eyes flashed with a trace of unwillingness and confusion, but soon he regained his composure. Naruto nodded and thought to himself,"It seems that Sasuke has thought about this matter carefully."

Then, Naruto's eyes became serious, and he said in an extremely solemn tone:"Sasuke, I now have a suggestion that can make you stronger. But for you, this may not be a good choice, and it may even bring some risks. Are you willing to listen to it?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Sasuke's eyes. He stared at Naruto who was serious in front of him. After a moment of silence, he slowly said:"Don't keep me in suspense, Naruto, just say whatever you want to say." Naruto took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, and then said:"Sasuke, judging from the current situation, if you want to improve your strength, I'm afraid the only way is to find [Orochimaru]."

Hearing the name"Orochimaru", Sasuke's brows instantly frowned.

Of course he knew this person. He was a legendary figure on par with Tsunade and Jiraiya - one of the legendary three ninjas!

Sasuke had also heard about the various rumors about Orochimaru, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"I have reached an agreement with Orochimaru that as long as you go to him, he will teach you everything he has learned in his life."

At this point, Naruto's tone became heavier, as if he was carrying a heavy burden. Sasuke on the side keenly noticed the change in Naruto's mood. He couldn't help but frowned, staring at Naruto intently, and said softly:"Go on, Naruto"

"But if you do this, you will inevitably become a traitor to Konoha." Naruto took a deep breath and continued,"Konoha will definitely send out pursuers to hunt you down and encircle you endlessly."���When Sasuke heard the word"rebel ninja", his expression changed drastically in an instant. The astonished expression was gradually replaced by calmness, but the depths of his eyes still flashed with a complex light.

Naruto looked at Sasuke silently, and stopped talking after he finished what he had to say. Sasuke fell into a long silence. He began to think about his current situation and the various difficulties he might face in the future. At the same time, a figure kept appearing in his mind - that was his brother, Uchiha Itachi

"Naruto, what would you do if I told you I didn't want to go?"

After some careful consideration, Sasuke finally broke the silence. He stared into Naruto's eyes with an extremely serious expression.

However, Naruto almost didn't hesitate at all and blurted out:"You won't, brother."

Hearing Naruto's words, Sasuke's mouth corners slightly raised

"Then let me take a good look, Naruto."
