In the next few days, peace returned to Woodleaf Village on the surface.
Most of the foreign ninjas were arranged to stay in some rooms to rest.
However, behind this seemingly calm scene, Sasuke Uchiha wasn't too friendly.
At this moment, he was already locked in a watchtower.
The reason was that Sasuke Uchiha's condition had not stabilized yet.
"Let me out! Let me out! Why did you lock me up!" The one who shouted was Sasuke Uchiha, who was chained by four chains. After he woke up, his emotions were no longer affected by the curse.
However, when he recalled the strength of Naruto Uzumaki…
He recalled the scene of the battle.
This caused him to collapse even more.
It turned out that he had always thought that the difference in strength between him and Naruto Uzumaki was not too great.
But the result was hopeless.
Therefore, he wanted to become stronger!
He could not stay here!
However, no matter how he struggled, he could not break free from the restraints here.
Even the curse mark on his neck was useless in this building.
This place seemed to have the effect of suppressing power.
"Sasuke Uchiha, we can't let you out before you calm down.”The one who spoke was Hatake Kakashi, who was reading an orange book while responding to Sasuke Uchiha.
He was arranged by Ape Flying Sun Slash to watch over Sasuke Uchiha here.
The main purpose was to ensure that Sasuke Uchiha had no signs of defection before letting him go.
However, based on the current situation, it was probably impossible to let Sasuke Uchiha out.
Uchiha Sasuke was more persistent than in the original novel.
His personality was even more twisted.
As long as Orochimaru could give him strength.
He did not hesitate at all.
Thus, when Hatake Kakashi saw Sasuke Uchiha's condition, he yawned and ignored him.
Guo Jun's appearance eventually became a butterfly effect.
In this life, Kakashi and Sasuke Uchiha were destined to be strangers.
……
One day after the Forest of Death incident.
Whirlpools sing in people's homes.
At this moment, Hinata was holding a box of sweet lunch boxes as she came to the door of Uzumaki Naruto's house.
Knock!
Knock!
Knock!
He knocked on the wooden door three times.
"Good morning, Naruto," Hinata whispered. I personally made breakfast for you today.”
He did not need to wait long.
Uzumaki Naruto quickly crawled to the door and opened it.
Rubbing the back of his head, he grinned and said,""Good morning, Hinata! Sorry to keep you waiting."
Hinata's face turned slightly red.
He handed over the lunch box with both hands.
Naruto Uzumaki naturally took the lunch box and welcomed Hinata into his house as a guest.
When he opened the lunch box, a fragrant aroma wafted into his nose.
"Wow! This is my favorite templar!”
"Thank you! Hatsune!"
"I like you the most!"
Hatata Hinata's face turned hot from what Naruto Uzumaki said, but she quickly calmed down.
He looked at Naruto Uzumaki wolfing down the food.
She looked as happy as a child.
However, Hinata Hinata knew very well that this was not Naruto Uzumaki's genuine happiness. Naruto Uzumaki had been pretending to be fine and forcing a smile for a few days.
After learning the truth, Hinata had been worried until now.
Compared to Sasuke Uchiha's betrayal, Hinata was more willing to believe that Sasuke Uchiha was controlled or influenced by others.
Even though Sasuke Uchiha had used her to threaten Naruto Uzumaki in that battle, she had never blamed anyone.
Hinata only hoped that everything could return to its original state.
" Naruto... Sasuke, he..." Hinata hoped that Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha could reconcile.
She learned that Sasuke Uchiha was imprisoned.
She knew that Uchiha Sasuke had become like this, and Naruto Uzumaki would not be happy.
Therefore, she wanted to persuade Naruto Uzumaki to visit Sasuke Uchiha.
However, before she could finish her sentence.
When Uzumaki Naruto heard the word 'Sasuke', his mischievous expression immediately disappeared. Instead, he responded to Hinata with a cold tone,"Don't mention him in front of me."
Yes, Uchiha Sasuke intentionally hurting Hinata was a huge blow to Uzumaki Naruto.
His emotions were very complicated.
He didn't know how to face this old friend of his.
He was very afraid.
He was afraid that Sasuke Uchiha had really changed.
He had become his enemy.
He didn't want to believe this.
He was unwilling to accept this fact.
Because in his heart, he could not be merciful to his enemies!
But if Sasuke Uchiha really changed…
Did he really have to kill him with his own hands?
Could he do it?
The difficult choice had been hovering in Naruto Uzumaki's mind for the past few days.
He didn't know how to choose.
In the end, he chose to run away.
He chose to forget everything.
Forget about Uchiha Sasuke.
I don't want to think of Uchiha Sasuke.
He was even more unwilling to mention anything about Sasuke Uchiha.
Seeing Hinata's sad expression, Uzumaki Naruto quickly changed his attitude."Hahaha! Don't mention those unhappy things! After I finish enjoying the food that you prepared for me, we will go to the square to cultivate!”
……
Just like that, in the few days after leaving the Forest of Death, Naruto Uzumaki had been deceiving himself.
Soon, the list of candidates for the second round of the Chuunin exam was finally out.
In the beginning, it was based on strength, eliminating many examinees.
However, it caused everyone to be dissatisfied.
After all, no one felt that they were inferior to others.
Why are you eliminating me without passing the assessment?
Helpless, the organizers could only hold another elimination round.
Those students who were declared to have failed would have a duel in advance.
The winner would be able to advance to the preliminaries.
This included the extras in the original novel, as well as candidates like Haruno Sakura who were average in strength and had no background.
The result of this elimination round was beyond Guo Jun's expectations.
It was actually the long-forgotten Haruno Sakura who stood out.
It had to be said that the Haruno Sakura in this life was indeed much stronger than in the original novel.
Without Flagtree Kakashi's delay, she had come into contact with medical skills under Sunset Glow's guidance. Not only had her strength increased by quite a bit, but her defense against illusions had also improved by quite a bit.
Guo Jun could only say that Kakashi had really done a lot of harm.
Haruno Sakura was a good student, but he was taught by him until he was useless.
She was biased to the point of her grandmother's house.
Furthermore, in the original novel, during the entire process of leading the team, they only taught Uzumaki Naruto and the others how to climb trees…
It was also unknown if it was Yuan Fei Ri Zhan who had specially instructed behind his back.
After all, the current Yamato was the same.
Perhaps Guo Jun had missed this scene when he was observing the crystal ball.
Very soon, after the list of candidates was made, the group of examinees once again came to the tower in the middle of the Forest of Death to carry out the real selection of the second assessment!
