[Chapter 253. I won't listen, I won't listen (Bonus chapter 4/10 for the salted fish alliance leader determined to turn his life around!)]
Mei Terumi came to Konoha with 12 people, but returned with 17.
Although Shinji and the other two are just going through the motions and will not return to the Land of Water with her.
Gaara wasn't locked up; his chakra points were simply sealed beforehand. I believe that once he returns to Kirigakure, there will be plenty of people there who can make Gaara feel the 'warmth of home'.
Karin stayed far away from Gaara, not daring to look at him at all.
It was probably during the Chunin Exams that Gaara's brutality terrified her.
In fact, many people were so terrified of Gaara during the Chunin Exams that they even questioned their own existence.
In every sense, he was an absolute monster.
After walking for a while, a noise suddenly came from the woods, and everyone stopped in their tracks.
Even Gaara raised his head, a tiny bit of hope flickering in his heart: could it be that the villagers had come to rescue him?
If so, he would rather bear the name of monster once again...
Once again... as long as...
"Brother Shinji!"
Sasuke, who was traveling light, was already waiting here. He knew that he couldn't appear in Kirigakure's group before leaving Konoha, so he simply ran out early.
"Let's go."
Shinji wasn't surprised. After saying hello, he continued on his way.
Sasuke preferred this way of getting along, so he immediately ran to Shinji's side and followed him closely with a stern face.
Hidan and the others were already used to it, and even Mei Terumi and Mangetsu Hozuki didn't say anything.
However, Karin, Gaara, and the other candidates from Kirigakure all felt a bit strange, since Sasuke was not exactly an unknown figure in the Chunin Exams, and most of them had either seen or heard of him.
They couldn't understand why the Konoha genin had suddenly gone with them.
"Here, this is a gift for you."
Shinji tossed the Kusanagi sword, which he had never used, to Sasuke.
Sasuke took it and immediately showed a look of joy, but still coolly put it away.
"I was going to give it to you last time, but you fainted again."
Sasuke, who was about to thank him, immediately blushed, but still managed a calm "oh."
"Has everything been taken care of?"
"Yes, I left a letter for Naruto and the others. They should have seen it by now."
What did you say in your letter?
“I told them I was going out to cultivate myself and become stronger, and that they shouldn’t come looking for me.”
Shinji gave him a speechless look.
"What's wrong, Brother Shinji?"
"I think you're just burying your head in the sand. You tell them not to come looking for you, but knowing Naruto as you do, do you think he'll listen?"
Sasuke thought for a moment, then shook his head. "No."
"This is really going to get me into trouble..."
Shinji sighed and stopped walking.
"Let's part ways here. Hidan, Tobi, you two go in that direction, and stop and wait for me when you're almost there."
Since we already know that someone will be chasing us, it's best not to involve Mei Terumi and the others to avoid trouble.
Do you need any help?
Mei Terumi asked bluntly, wondering when they had become a community of shared destiny, where they were bound together by fate, one for prosperity and the other for ruin.
"No need. If you get involved, it will only make things more complicated. I can handle it myself."
Mei Terumi nodded. "Alright, as I said before, the gates of Kirigakure are always open for you. If you have nowhere else to go, come to the Land of Water."
"I can't be moved by empty words like this. If you're really sincere, prepare more magical items. Maybe you can knock me out next time."
"What a waste of such a great atmosphere." Mei Terumi couldn't help but roll her eyes, then led her people away.
The payment for this transaction had already been settled, and it was specially delivered by Terumi Mei.
Looking again, Hidan and Tobi, those two bastards, were long gone.
At least pretend to ask a couple of questions. Sure enough, the dog has grown up and started to rebel.
. . . . . .
Before long, Naruto and the Konoha 1s actually caught up with them.
"Sasuke! He's there!"
"Be careful, there's another person next to you."
"Is it that guy named Shinji Akagi?"
"have no idea..."
Shinji and Sasuke stopped their leisurely pace. If they hadn't been deliberately trying to get caught, they probably would have disappeared by now.
"Sasuke, you..."
"What are you doing here?"
Wearing the robes of the Jashin Cult and holding the Kusanagi Sword, Sasuke spoke coldly.
Shinji, standing next to him, was dressed the same way, but he used blood crystals to condense a ghost face mask and wore it on his face. It's hard to say whether this counts as burying one's head in the sand.
"Of course we're here to take you back, Sasuke. Did this guy coerce you?" Naruto asked angrily.
Sasuke was speechless. "Didn't you see the letter I left behind?"
"I saw it."
"..."
Sasuke opened his mouth, but for a moment he was at a loss for words because of Naruto's confident answer.
"I'll say it again, no one coerced me. I just found a way to become stronger quickly."
"Huh? But Kakashi-sensei can too..."
"That's different! And I can't wait that long. Can you see my eyes? I can become even stronger! So I must leave Konoha."
Sasuke has awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan, looking incredibly cool!
The reason why Sasuke and Naruto can always have a love-hate relationship is mainly because they both have a unique characteristic that others can't imitate: once they've made up their minds about something, no one can change their mind!
Even though Sasuke had made things so clear, even Kiba and the others began to hesitate and had second thoughts.
But Naruto declared, "I won't listen! I won't listen!"
You were coerced and tricked!
In short, you can't leave, you have to stay!
"It must be this guy's fault! Let go of Sasuke! I will not allow you to take him away!"
Naruto's words completely stunned Shinji, leaving him dumbfounded and unable to figure it out.
Shinji looked at himself, then at the speechless Sasuke, and understood. This was probably the highest level of talk-no-jutsu: creating something out of nothing!
With Naruto charging forward, the others could no longer stand idly by and had no choice but to join in.
Although the outcome differed somewhat from what I had imagined before coming, there was still a tiny, albeit slight, possibility that Sasuke was forced into it...
Forget it, whatever, it's all Tokiomi's fault anyway!
Wait a minute, who is Tokiomi?
"Show us the results of the changes to these eyes, but don't go too far."
Shinji had no intention of making a move. It would be too embarrassing for him to have to deal with a few brats by himself.
Sasuke declared, "Leave it to me!"
"One against five? That suits me perfectly!"
Sakura didn't go; only Naruto, Choji, Neji, Kiba, and Shikamaru rushed over.
The sound of birds screeching suddenly filled Sasuke's ears...
[Chapter 254. Partial Tailed Beast Transformation]
After this period of practice, and with the help of the three-tomoe Sharingan, Sasuke has been able to initially master Chidori.
There will no longer be the embarrassing situation of "controlling lightning in one's hand and crashing headfirst into a tree".
Chidori, a ninjutsu that is clearly beyond the reach of other genin, is a game-changer from the moment it appears.
If Sasuke hadn't been thinking of his classmates, several more 'Rin's' would probably be dead by now.
(Obito: Damn it, are you being polite?)
"hateful!"
Naruto, who had been knocked to the ground, angrily slammed his fist on the ground. In just a few days, the gap between him and Sasuke had widened so much!
He just created hundreds of shadow clones at once, but they were all destroyed in no time.
Especially Sasuke's lightning bolt; if it even slightly touches the clone, it will be destroyed.
The only turning point was Shikamaru's Shadow Imitation Technique.
In a situation where they outnumber each other, if Sasuke is controlled by Shikamaru, it's practically a death sentence.
However, Sasuke had his sights set on Shikamaru from the very beginning, so Shikamaru unfortunately became the first person to be 'killed'.
Without Shikamaru as a potential comeback point, Sasuke, relying on his three-tomoe Sharingan and Chidori, wreaked havoc, swiftly defeating all the other Konoha members.
Another noteworthy point is that throughout the battle, Sakura delivered a talk-no-jutsu that rivaled Naruto's, constantly harassing Sasuke with her words, much to his annoyance.
