Naruto: I, Naruto, Start With The Full-Level Shining Fruit

"Kakashi-sensei, stop acting! We've already seen through you!"

Naruto was walking when he heard Sakura's voice from behind.

He turned his head to look at Sakura, his eyes full of confusion.

Is this woman crazy?

"What did you call me?"

"Still acting!"

Sakura smiled confidently, "We already know this is your test, Kakashi-sensei! You want to test our insight, right? I have to say, Sasuke and I were almost fooled by you!"

"But unfortunately, you overlooked a very important point!"

"What?" Naruto asked subconsciously.

"That's that Naruto could never be as strong as you!"

"......"

Naruto looked at his hands, wondering if his two slaps just now were too strong.

Did he slap this silly woman into being mentally challenged?

"Kakashi-sensei, aren't you going to change back?" Sakura urged, puzzled, when she saw Naruto suddenly looking at his hands.

"Change your head, you idiot!"

Naruto glared at Sakura and then looked at Sasuke, "Did you believe her?"

Sasuke silently moved a little away from Sakura, indicating that he didn't know her well.

But Naruto knew that this idiot Sasuke must have believed Sakura and thought he was Kakashi in disguise!

"I'm really fed up with you two. Why do I have to be teammates with you two idiots?"

"If you're sick, go get treatment. If your IQ is low, go buy some walnuts to nourish your brain."

Seeing that Naruto didn't change back into Kakashi but scolded them instead, Sakura was completely dumbfounded.

Could it be that I guessed wrong?

That's right, only that annoying guy would scold me like that!

Although Kakashi-sensei doesn't seem like a good person, he wouldn't scold her!

Thinking that she had made such a fool of herself in front of Naruto, Sakura's face turned red with embarrassment.

"It seems you guys have some misunderstandings~" Kakashi appeared behind them at some point, teasing.

"Kakashi-sensei......"

Sakura was even more embarrassed when she saw Kakashi appear.

"Alright, the farce is over. You two, come over here quickly."

Kakashi shook his head as he looked at Sakura and Sasuke.

They are both genin, but why is there such a big difference?

Oh... it seems that when I was a genin, I wasn't as good as Naruto is now.

I guess he deserves to be the Fourth Hokage's son.

Back at the meeting place,

Kakashi threw two ropes to Naruto, "Go tie them two up."

Naruto caught the ropes and threw them to Sasuke, saying, "You go tie her up, then tie yourself up."

Sasuke: "......"

Kakashi: "......"

Sakura: "?"

Before long, Sasuke took the rope and tied Sakura to a wooden post.

Then he sat in front of the wooden post, flicked the remaining rope around himself, and the rope turned a few circles, binding him to the wooden post.

He held the end of the rope in his hand, tied a knot, and bound himself tightly!

Naruto couldn't help but admire Sasuke's fancy moves.

As expected of someone who plays with ropes, his skills are probably unmatched in the entire ninja world!

"Alright, next, let's summarize the mission for you."

Kakashi looked at the three and said lightly, "Except for Naruto, both of you failed this mission!"

Although they had expected it, Sasuke and Sakura were still a little disappointed when they heard this answer.

Especially Sasuke, his eyes were full of unwillingness!

"Maybe you think you failed because you didn't get the bells, but that's not really the reason," Kakashi noticed their expressions and added.

"Not?"

Sakura asked in confusion, "Isn't the task of the exercise to pass the test by getting the bells? And Naruto, he... didn't he pass the test because he got the bells?"

"Yes, and no."

Kakashi glanced at Naruto and said, "Extreme individual ability allowed Naruto to snatch the bells from my hands, but the reason he was able to pass the assessment was because he has teamwork spirit!"

"Teamwork spirit?"

Sasuke and Sakura both looked at Kakashi in confusion, but Kakashi didn't answer them directly. Instead, he asked them, "Why do you think a team is made up of three people?"

"Three-person team? What does it have to do with this assessment?" Sakura asked in confusion.

Seeing that the two still didn't understand, Kakashi's tone became a little colder, "A mission is completed through the cooperation of a class. Although individual ability is also important, ignoring your teammates will put them in danger."

"The reason Naruto was able to pass the assessment was because he considered the existence of his teammates."

"On the other hand, what about you? Naruto asked you to cooperate, but you completely ignored him. Sakura, you only have Sasuke in your eyes! Sasuke, you only want to be a lone wolf!"

Sakura and Sasuke lowered their heads in shame after their thoughts were exposed.

But Sakura quickly discovered a problem, "But Kakashi-sensei, there are only two bells. How can three people cooperate as a team? Even if we get the bells, one person will have to give way, right?"

"Still don't understand?" Kakashi's tone was cold, "This was a deliberate trap designed for you, the purpose is to test whether you can prioritize teamwork in this situation!"

"Doesn't Naruto know that there are only two bells? But even so, he still took the initiative to ask you two to cooperate, didn't he?"

Sakura and Sasuke subconsciously looked at the expressionless Naruto, their faces flushed with shame.

They didn't expect the gap between themselves and Naruto to be so big!

Not only in strength, but also in thinking!

They knew that Naruto had shown strength that was stronger than both of them, but even so, he didn't choose to fight alone!

"The missions you will be carrying out in the future are all life-and-death missions. Look at this!"

Kakashi walked to a stone tablet not far away and said, "The names engraved on this stone are all ninjas who are called heroes by the village, but they all died in the process of carrying out missions. That includes my teammates."

Sasuke and Sakura remained silent, their faces heavy.

At this moment, they seemed to understand the meaning of teammates and realized the fragility of life.

Doing missions... can really lead to death!

"You two, I'll give you one last chance!"

"There will be another bell-snatching mission in the afternoon, but because you failed the morning assessment, you can't eat lunch!"

"Naruto!"

"Mm?"

"You can eat two servings of bento by yourself, but you are not allowed to give them to the two of them. This is the rule. If you break the rule, your assessment result will be re-evaluated as failing. Understand?"

Naruto stared at Kakashi, who was staring at him with dead fish eyes, for a while, and said lightly, "I understand."
