"I didn't expect that I was chosen to be paired with Sasuke."

Looking at the paper in his hand, Naruto's face was a little tangled, and he felt a mixture of joy and sorrow.

What I'm happy about is that I can finally have a formal duel with this guy Sasuke.

What's worrying is that he probably won't be able to give that stinky Hinata Neji a good beating in the chuunin finals.

Unless after the first round knockout match, the two can meet again in the draw.

But there is also a very difficult problem before Naruto.

"Although I really want to beat up Neji, but now I guess... I'm probably no match for Sasuke."

Naruto murmured softly with a troubled look on his face.

"Be confident, Naruto!"

Seeing that Naruto's face looked a little ugly, Sasuke thought for a moment and comforted him softly: "Get rid of the estimate and the rough."

"Sasuke-kun is right!"

Sakura nodded in agreement and agreed.

Ah ah ah ah ah!

This bastard Sasuke is still so annoying when he talks!

Hearing this, Naruto felt a little crazy, pointed at Sasuke and said loudly: "You bastard, what are you so proud of? In the competition next month, I will definitely defeat you in the presence of the whole village and let everyone know

Who is the real genius ninja, hum!"

The little guys look very motivated!

Kakashi looked at the three students in front of him, a warm current surged in his heart, and waited until the three of them talked for a while.

Only then did he cough lightly, attracting everyone's attention, and said, "In order to prepare for the Chunin Examination in one month's time, I have decided to arrange a long period of special training for you."

"First of all, Naruto, during this time, you can practice Taijutsu with me."

"Eh?" Hearing this, Naruto glanced at Kakashi with some disgust.

"Kakashi-sensei, can you really teach me Taijutsu?"

In the past few months, in Naruto's mind, Kakashi-sensei has played the role of being lazy, lazy and procrastinating.

Late! Lazy! Fishing!

The key is that the body is still weak!

What powerful physical skills can a guy with such a weak body teach himself?

"You will know this when the time comes."

Kakashi coughed lightly, ignored Naruto's disgusted look, turned to Sakura and said: "Sakura, you are here too, as for Sasuke..."

"I can just practice by myself, Kakashi-sensei."

Before Kakashi could finish speaking, Sasuke spoke up.

"Kakashi-sensei has already taught me everything he can teach me, and I haven't fully understood what the teacher gave me a few days ago. I just want to take advantage of this month to fully understand it."

"okay."

Kakashi was silent for a while, and finally nodded.

"If you don't understand anything, you can come and ask me at any time."

As Sasuke said, he has already taught him almost everything he can teach him in the past two years.

There is really no inventory at all.

Just do what Sasuke said and let him meditate alone for a while, maybe the effect will be greater.

This month, I can spend more time and thought on Naruto and Sakura.

"Then, it's settled, Sasuke will train alone, while Naruto and Sakura will gather at the third training ground at eight o'clock tomorrow morning!"

"Hi!"x3

"Disband!"

............

In the evening, the sky was dyed blood red by the setting sun, like a raging fire, and the pink clouds became hazy and blurred.

It was already evening after coming out of the central tower of the Death Forest.

Konoha East Street.

After bidding farewell to Sakura and Naruto on the street, Sasuke was alone on the street of the village. The location of the Uchiha clan is in the eastern corner of Konoha.

This East Street is the only way for him to go to the clan area every day.

As Sasuke walked, his steps were neither hasty nor slow, while he was constantly planning something in his mind.

Suddenly, Sasuke stopped and looked up at the flower shop on the left.

Yamanaka Flower Shop.

This is not the flower shop of the Ino family, but the flower shop of other Yamanaka clans.

Just like the Nara clan’s side business of medicinal herbs and deer raising, the Yamanaka clan’s side business is gardening and flowers!

His steps stayed in place, and after quietly looking at the flower shop for a while, Sasuke walked in.

"welcome."

A young man in his mid-twenties with orange-red hair tied into a ponytail.

After seeing Sasuke walk in, he was obviously stunned for a moment, but then he immediately reacted and put on a professional smile on his face.

"Are the guests here to pick flowers?"

"Well, come and take a look."

Nodding slightly, Sasuke said calmly.

"Does the guest know the flower language and symbols of various flowers?" The orange-red-haired man asked gently: "Buying flowers is very particular. Different occasions and different people should not give flowers randomly. Guests

Who do you want to buy flowers for? Your teacher? Your companion? Or... the girl you like?"

At the end of the sentence, there was a hint of ridicule in the orange-red-haired man's tone.

But Sasuke could tell that his teasing was fake, and even his gentle tone was fake.

"neither."

Shaking his head slowly, Sasuke replied: "It's to pay homage to the dead."

Hearing this, the orange-red-haired man was stunned, but he soon understood.

That's right, today is July 6th, and in a few days it will be the anniversary of the Uchiha genocide.

After a moment of silence, the orange-red-haired man said: "If you are paying homage to the deceased, I recommend the guest to choose white chrysanthemums. White chrysanthemums mean mourning and lovesickness. They are usually used when mourning the deceased or when offering sacrifices and sweeping tombs.

Use it to express your feelings of longing."

"Then white chrysanthemums."

Sasuke didn't mean to choose too much and directly chose the white chrysanthemum recommended by the man.

"How many white chrysanthemums does the guest need?"

The orange-red-haired man smiled gently and asked knowingly.

"How much..." Sasuke muttered to himself, but did not answer the man's question immediately. He slowly glanced at the flower shop and then focused on the man.

"The flowers in your shop are not enough, far from enough."

When Sasuke looked over with his calm eyes, the orange-red-haired man felt inexplicably panicked.

But as one of the few people in the Yamanaka clan who was proficient in perception, he did not sense any murderous intention or malice in Sasuke.

What's more, how could Uchiha Sasuke have an inexplicable murderous intention towards him?

Unless he knows the truth about that night!

Of course, this is impossible. How old was he at that time?

Moreover, it was Uchiha Itachi who killed the entire Uchiha clan.

They were only responsible for collecting corpses and cleaning the floor, but they did not kill any Uchiha people.

After calming down, the orange-red-haired man thought he was overthinking, and said with a smile: "If the customer needs a large amount of white chrysanthemums, it is not a big problem. We still have a lot of flower shops in the mountains in the village. You can

You can tell me the number and address, and I can deliver it to the customer the next morning."

"1754 copies, please send them to Uchiha tomorrow."

Except for the hundreds of Uchihas who died that night, the rest are tombstones for those who died due to various reasons such as wars, injuries, and natural deaths in the 60 years since the founding of Konoha.

After agreeing on the matters, Sasuke paid the deposit and left the flower shop.

The orange-red-haired man watched Sasuke leave with a smile on his face. After Sasuke left far away, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared and became extremely cold.

Looking up towards the eaves, a black-haired man wearing protective clothing that almost covered his whole body and a goggle mask covering the upper half of his face suddenly appeared.

They nodded to each other, and the black-haired man disappeared the next moment, rushing in the direction Sasuke left.

Mountain wind!

He is an ANBU member directly under Shimura Danzo's "root", Shimura Danzo's bodyguard, right-hand man, and two of his most trusted subordinates.

Of course, after the Root Organization was forcibly disbanded by the Third Hokage four years ago, Shanfeng's current identity is that of a flower shop owner who retired and opened a shop at home.

Walking back silently, Sasuke's mind filled with all the information about the previous flower shop owner.

Aburame takes root!

The guy who was spying on him was also Shimura Danzo's bodyguard, his right-hand man, and his second most trusted subordinate.

However, unlike Yamanikaze's apparent status as a retired ninja, Aburame Tonine still holds a position under the Hokage ANBU, but secretly only follows the orders of Shimura Danzo.

'If I want to kill Danzo, I'll have to make some decisions from you two, haha...'

Sasuke chuckled in his heart, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

It was getting dark at night, and when Sasuke walked slowly to the Uchiha clan's territory, the sky was completely dark.

Aburame Torine, who was in the shelter of the roof, watched Sasuke walk into the home with an expressionless face, and stayed there quietly for nearly an hour before turning around and leaving.

A few jumped up and their figures quickly disappeared into the dark night.

Shortly after Aburame took the root and left, a figure came out from the Uchiha clan. After staying there quietly for a few minutes, his figure seemed to turn into a ghost, and he followed him without anyone noticing.

A few minutes later.........

Aburame took the root and went to an unspectacular shop in the west of Konoha. He observed the surroundings calmly and saw that several phosphorus bugs that were invisible to the naked eye returned to his body.

After discovering that there was nothing unusual, he gave an inexplicable code and walked into the store.

"It turns out that I'm hiding here."

In the dark night, Sasuke's mouth curved slightly as he watched Aburame take her root into the store.

the next day.

On a summer morning, the dawn slowly begins, the blue sky is like a sapphire that has just been washed by clear water, and the gentle wind is sweeping gently, blowing everything slightly.

In Konoha's third training ground, Kakashi, who was always late, was rarely on time this time, which surprised Naruto and Sakura.

"Ahem!" Kakashi coughed lightly and ignored the two people's complaints.

"Next, let's start our special training!"

After saying that, Kakashi immediately created a shadow clone and said:

"Sakura, please stay with my shadow clone for now."

Sakura nodded, didn't say much, and left the place directly following the shadow clone.

"Do you want to defeat Sasuke in the chuunin finals in a month?"

After Sakura left, Kakashi looked at Naruto who was slightly impatient, and said with a smile: "I have a technique here that is very suitable for you."

"Kakashi-sensei, what kind of jutsu is this!?"

Hearing this, Naruto immediately became interested and quickly asked: "Can this technique allow me to defeat Sasuke?"

"I can't say absolutely, after all, you must know Sasuke's strength best." Kakashi shook his head and said: "I can only say that this weapon can greatly enhance your strength. If you defeat Sasuke, it is not impossible."

Possible things."

Naruto hurriedly urged: "Then what are you waiting for? Kakashi-sensei, let's start quickly!"

"Don't worry, let me ask you first, how much do you know about the acupoints on the human body?"

"I can't say that I know everything, but it's pretty much the same."

"Then watch out! Naruto!"

Kakashi nodded, not surprisingly, his body suddenly exploded with a large amount of chakra, and the surrounding air flow surged.

"Is this one with thick eyebrows!?" Naruto was stunned and quickly asked: "This is the Eight Gate Dunjia!?"

"Kakashi-sensei, can you do this?"

"That's right! For me, this is not a difficult technique." Seeing Naruto's shocked look, Kakashi felt very proud, but on the surface he looked extremely indifferent.

"This is a technique that releases the body's restrictions on chakra and releases excess energy. In the meridian system where chakra flows, the places that inhibit and control the chakra in the body include opening the door and closing the door...

..."

"However, while gaining strength, the caster himself will be damaged, so this technique is listed as one of the forbidden techniques..."

Kakashi quickly introduced the origins and characteristics of the Eight Gate Dungeon, etc. Naruto also listened silently. After Kakashi finished speaking, he asked: "What else? What else!?

Kakashi-sensei."

"What else? What else?"

Kakashi was stunned and didn't understand what he meant. Naruto said: "Kakashi-sensei, you should be in a dormant state now. Quickly show me what's behind the fifth and sixth gates, Kakashi-sensei.

"

In the taijutsu contest with Rock Lee, Naruto still regretted not being able to experience the power of the five gates, and wanted to satisfy his curiosity from Kakashi.

Kakashi's mouth twitched, and after a moment of silence, he said in a low voice, "This is almost my limit."

"Isn't it?" Naruto frowned and said with disbelief: "That guy with thick eyebrows can open five gates as a genin. Mr. Kakashi, you are also a jounin after all, and you are not even half as good as him."

Can’t reach it?”

"Well, as you often say, people's physiques cannot be generalized. Although Xiao Li is a genin, his physique is very suitable for this forbidden art. My physique is not suitable."

Kakashi explained lightly and changed his tone: "However, although I can only open two doors, I have thoroughly studied the practice of the Eight Doors Dungeon. If I teach you, there will still be no problems."

"Teacher Chen once told me that there are only three reasons for people's poor physical fitness: congenital deficiencies, insufficient training, and poor eating."

Naruto didn't seem to hear Kakashi's explanation. Instead, he touched his chin, looking thoughtful and analytical: "Kakashi was the most famous genius of the year. Innate deficiencies can be ruled out. Although Kakashi-sensei is usually lazy, he is still very lazy."

If you can become a Jonin, you should not slack off in training... Well, then there is only one."

"Kakashi-sensei, do you usually eat poorly?"

Kakashi raised his eyebrows and denied, "No, I usually eat pretty well."

"No, Kakashi-sensei, judging from your physique, you must not eat well on weekdays!"

Naruto concluded, and then seemed to remember something: "I remember Teacher Chen said that people with weak bodies like Kakashi-sensei, in addition to their daily dietary supplements, should also take some food that strengthens the body, nourishes the body, and strengthens the kidneys.

Medicines, yam, wolfberry, deer antlers, and...um..."

Hearing this, Kakashi pricked up his ears and quickly asked: "What else?"

"Kakashi-sensei, are you interested?" Naruto glanced at Kakashi. In fact, he was just talking casually and couldn't understand why Kakashi was so eager.

"Well..." Kakashi coughed lightly and said seriously: "I'll ask my friend."

"Red bean puree?"

Naruto looked at Kakashi suspiciously, and finally nodded: "Okay, but I can't remember it for the moment. I'll ask when I get back."

"Well, ask clearly, my friend is very anxious!"

"Okay, let's skip this topic for now." Kakashi clapped his hands and brought the topic back.

"Next, I will teach you the practice method of Eight Door Dunjia!"
