Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 545 Self-Reproach

[Title Page Story:]

Sunagakure Village:

Granny Chiyo, leaning on her cane, greeted the new Kazekage, Rasa, upon his visit.

Rasa didn't mince words and stated bluntly that he believed the ninjas sent to Konoha by each village for next year's Chunin Exams would be the best of the best, and that Chiyo's son was also an excellent ninja.

Grandma Chiyo calmly stated: "I know my own son very well, but as for my grandson... well, everyone knows."

In Sunagakure, Sasori is very popular.

At least in many street interviews, many girls said that Sasori was the most popular girl in Sunagakure and the one they most wanted to marry.

This is not only due to Scorpion's excellent appearance, but also because of Scorpion's powerful strength.

Luo Sha was naturally aware of this as well.

In fact, Rasa would be even more at ease if Sasori could serve as the team leader.

Since that's the case, then the first team from Sunagakure for next year is set. As for the other teams...

Luo Sha stroked his chin, wondering if he should set his sights further afield.

After all... the rewards for the top 100 are already very tempting...

……

The Hyuga clan managed to curry favor with Otsutsuki Toneri, which aroused envy, jealousy, and hatred from the Uchiha clan.

Why does the Hyuga clan have such incredible luck?!

The Uchiha clan was extremely dissatisfied.

After all, how could the Uchiha clan accept that their clan's Mangekyou Sharingan Susanoo was so easily destroyed?

Of course, for them, not accepting it is also being accepted.

The facts are indisputable, and of course, Fugaku Uchiha was never prepared to defend himself.

At this time, Itachi Uchiha found Fugaku Uchiha and expressed his concerns.

Now, all the ninja clans in Konoha Village have experienced a comprehensive strengthening since the emergence of the Six Paths Chakra.

Even some minor ninja clans ascended to heaven along with them.

This has made many people aware of the recent changes in Konoha Village.

At the same time, such changes are rare in the inner city of Konoha Village.

Even many residents of Konoha's inner city have expressed that they don't care who the strongest ninja clan in Konoha is, but they are very interested in just how strong the other clan is.

You wouldn't believe it if I told you there was no one stirring up trouble here.

The people in other villages are becoming increasingly shameless, taking it for granted that they want information.

I should have known better than to invite you bunch of bastards last time.

Sure enough, trouble ensued.

You Ya's idea is correct.

After all, Hyuga Neji and Uchiha Sasuke now represent the best of Konoha's younger generation and have demonstrated their value. It's only natural that other villages would be interested after receiving the news. But Yua never expected that these guys would try to get something for nothing.

Is information about my Konoha Village so cheap?

Give me something, please!

The battle between Sasuke and Neji attracted a lot of attention, but mostly from the other five great ninja villages.

They understood very well what a thirteen-year-old Susanoo represented.

Isn't this just another Uchiha Madara?

How are the others supposed to live?

However, Hyuga Neji actually managed to defeat this new-era Uchiha Madara?!

How the hell do you play this?

Upon receiving the news, the Kage of the five great ninja villages were all stunned.

Yet, he immediately felt the allure of the Six Paths Chakra.

His Konoha Village can make the new generation of villagers so outstanding...

There's no reason why we can't do it!

Then the question arises:

Where do they get their Six Paths Chakra?

The other five ninja villages fell silent.

And it is against this backdrop.

Suddenly, the Fourth Raikage of Kumogakure had an idea, a flash of inspiration.

He remembered that he had once traveled to another world with the Hokage, Yua, through the ancient Loulan.

If he wasn't mistaken, the corpse of that Otsutsuki clan member was obtained from that world.

Upon thinking this, the Fourth Raikage trembled with excitement.

He seemed to understand how to make his village stronger!

You Ya remained silent in response.

Do you really think he deliberately spread this news?

In the other world, Naruto, who had become Hokage and whose Boruto was about to graduate, was in a terrible predicament. The Otsutsuki clan was clearly going to continue their attack on his side, and if the attacks became more and more intense, he might not be able to hold on.

In this world, Naruto has shaved his head, sealing away his good looks, so the resulting increase in strength is practically useless.

After all, even if you become One-Punch Man, it won't make any difference in governing the village.

However, what Naruto didn't know was...

Soon he will have a large group of helpers...

……

"I'm back……"

Uchiha Sasuke muttered something under his breath, then went straight back to his room and closed the door.

He never imagined that he would lose after gaining the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Even if it's temporary, even if this Mangekyou Sharingan doesn't have the unique abilities of its predecessors, it's still a Mangekyou Sharingan!

This is the final evolved form of the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan! (The current Uchiha clan is unaware that the Mangekyou Sharingan can further evolve into the Rinnegan.)

We actually lost just like that...

Sasuke looked heartbroken.

What he found most unacceptable was Naruto's sympathy.

What do you mean? I only lost once, you don't even know how many times you've lost to me, why are you the one comforting me! (Well, Sasuke completely ignored the fact that he had also lost to Naruto many times, so their head-to-head record was 50/50.)

There was a knock on the door.

"Sasuke, come out and eat. Mom knows you're sad, but you still have to eat."

Sasuke placed his arm on his forehead and said in a low voice, "No need, Mom, I have no appetite."

"But you haven't eaten for days," Mikoto's worried voice continued.

Sasuke felt terrible, but he still forced himself to say, "No, it's okay, I don't need to eat..."

"Your mother will be very worried if you punish yourself like this..."

Sasuke closed his eyes. "Mom, your concern for me only makes me understand more deeply what my failure means."

I have let you down, Mom, and I have let everyone down...

I have let down the Uchiha clan's expectations of me...

I also let my brother down...

I am a sinner...

"Mom, I'm not hungry..."

"I don't deserve to eat either," Sasuke thought to himself.

"Bang"

The door was kicked open.

Mikoto Uchiha stormed in, her hair and beard bristling, her face contorted with rage: "Sasuke Uchiha! Did you eat out all day?! It's been days and you're still acting like this! Are you trying to get your hands on something?! Tell me! Where have you been gallivanting around these past few days?!"

Sasuke was so frightened that his eyes rolled back and he shrank into the corner...

Finally, on this day, Sasuke was dragged to the table for dinner by Mikoto. Congratulations!
