Without waiting for Kakas.h.i.+ to thank him, Naito took a few steps, then his figure gradually faded, as if had turned into a shadow, then he finally disappeared completely.
Looking at how Naito has disappeared, Kakas.h.i.+, who was originally about to thank him, shook his head. In fact, he was still a little embarra.s.sed and kept hesitating to thank him.
After all, he really messed things up.
If Zabuza was strong then him, it would have been okay, but he was weaker. Even though he needed to protect his disciples, it should have ended this way.
After seeing him leave, Naruto finally calmed down from her shock, and couldnāt help but ask her teacher: āKa⦠Kakas.h.i.+-Sensei, who is that guy? Itās kind of ridiculous how strong he is.ā
āThatās a rude thing to say about a senior!ā
Sakura replied, then directly hit Narutoās head fiercely.
She was actually scared. Although Naito had already left, she was afraid he will show up again if he hears how rude Naruto has just was.
Moreover, Sakura has become now very respectful and admired for Naito.
After all, in her view, Naito wasnāt just strong, but also younger than Kakas.h.i.+, and even more handsome than Sasuke.
āAww!ā
Naruto didnāt dare to say anything at that time and felt that he should, probably, maybe⦠indeed be more respectful.
Thinking of Naito and how he has just split a mountain with a wave of his hand, he kind became nervous too.
The idea ofo the strongest person in Narutoās minds suddenly got shaken. When he thought of that scene, he couldnāt help but doubt that the Hokage would be able to do the same!
However, Naruto, Sasuke, and Naito all had the same idea at that time. They really wanted to know who was Naito, especially Sasuke.
āHeās a senior, and he actually helped me a lot with my training⦠which makes me feels a little bit ashamed.ā Kakas.h.i.+ thought for a while, then when he started talking, he became a little bit depressed.
āHe was Kakas.h.i.+-Senseiās teacher?!ā
Sakura looked at Kakas.h.i.+ with a surprise; even the other two were stunned.
Looking at the three kidsā appearance, Kakas.h.i.+ himself also showed a pondering expression: āHe looks very young, thatās true, but, as far as I know, he looked the same ten years ago. Umm, but his hair now is a little bit longer.ā
āSpeaking of it, I was also a bit surprised. Time seems to never leave a trace on him.ā As he said, Kakas.h.i.+ showed a strange look.
Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura looked shocked by Kakas.h.i.+ās words. He was like this ten years ago?
If thatās true, then he should be older then Kakas.h.i.+, but also looks younger than him?!
The three little kids were stunned. After taking a deep breath, Naruto couldnāt help but continue to ask: āKakas.h.i.+-Sensei, you havenāt told us yet, who is this senior?ā
āHis name is Yuu Naito, people called him very names, and spoke a lot of legends about him, um, how do I describe it to youā¦ā Kakas.h.i.+ said after a deep pondering, then with a very solemnly expression, he continued: āTo make it simple, he is⦠The Strongest s.h.i.+n.o.bi!ā
āThe strongest?!ā
Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura all got shocked at that moment.
Kakas.h.i.+ās expression was extremely solemn, thereās no way he was joking. He looked at the three kids again, and said with a deep tone: āYes, The Strongest s.h.i.+n.o.bi In The World!ā
āAnd, this isnāt my own evaluation, nor is it self-proclaimed⦠Heās recognized to be the strongest by the entire s.h.i.+n.o.bi World!ā
After this sentence was said, the silence suddenly controlled the field, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura, foreheads were full of cold sweat, while the shock was evident in their eyes.
āReally, Sensei?!ā
āReally.ā
It wasnāt Kakas.h.i.+, who answered Naruto, it was actually Tazuna, which they were a.s.signed to protect him.
Tazunaās eyes were very dignified, and there was even a touch of awe inside it when he said: āIām not a ninja, I donāt know a lot of things, but I surely know that person⦠heās the respected G.o.d of s.h.i.+n.o.bi, heās equally famous with Konohaās first Hokage, Senju Has.h.i.+rama!ā
Even Tazuna, who wasnāt a ninja, said this. Although the three kids couldnāt believe they couldnāt help but feel speechless.
If you judge him by the appearance, you will never tell that he was such a person, but when they remembered what he has just done to that mountain, they had no choice but to believe it!
āIs that man the most powerful ninja in the s.h.i.+n.o.bi World?ā Naruto took a deep breath, then murmured with an incredible look in his eyes.
Sasuke, on the side, clenched his fist, with a trace of excitement, and even a flash of a horrifying glance, thinking about what it would take to get his hand on such strength; if just Naito could teach himā¦
As for Sakura, she exhaled, with clear watery eyes, and touch of endless admiration. Also, she felt so lucky to be the ones who were chosen to do this task and see him in person.
ā¦ā¦..
It wasnāt actually fate, Naito actually went to the Land of Waves to witness this event, but he found out that the plot got a little bit s.h.i.+fted, and the battle took place in the Land of Fire.
Although, there was still time before the Chunin Exam, Naito went there; he doesnāt visit Konoha as much as before, but he still occasionally does.
Since Naitoās Ultra Perceptive is very large now, he could sense the Team 7 exact location.
However, since Naito killed Zabuza, he wasnāt interested any longer to follow them to the Land of Waves and left.
He felt it would be better if he went to check on Hinata.
Hinataās character didnāt change, she was still gentle and weak, but no one can ever call her weak when it comes to her strength.
Even though she couldnāt be compared to geniuses like Kimimaro, and Haku, she couldnāt be compared to people with special abilities like Karin; still, she completed the second stage of the Sage Mode Transformation, learned a lot of things from Naito, and also became a stronger user of the Gentle Fist, her strength now has reached the level of an Elite Jonin.
In this regard, Naito was quite satisfied, she was as strong as Kakas.h.i.+ when he was about the same age.
Soon after returning to the Rain Village, Naito took Kimimaro, Haku, and Karin to officially go to Konoha.
