Konoha: I have a gravity training room

However, Naruto's card skills were terrible, which often made the two of them angry and burst into curses.

"Hey! You three seem to be quite free!" Xia Mu greeted them.

"Hey! Natsuki and Tenten? Are you guys...oh, on a date?" Sakura watched the two of them walking hand in hand, her face full of envy.

She wished she could go shopping and date hand in hand with Sasuke someday, but Sasuke seemed to have no interest in dating, which made her very distressed.

But she may never have thought about how a person with a blood feud could have the mind to fall in love?

She couldn't understand Sasuke's feelings at all. It would be strange if Sasuke liked her!

"Natsuki! Tenten! Do you want to play cards together?" Naruto called.

"Let's just play cards."

Xia Mu decisively refused, "By the way, why are you guys just sitting here doing nothing? Don't you have any missions recently? Where's Kakashi-senpai?"

Naruto immediately became cocky upon hearing this: "Hey, Xia Mu, you probably don't know, but we just came back from a mission outside the village! The mission we completed this time was a B-rank mission!"

"B-level? Impossible! Lord Hokage would never assign such a high-level task to a newly graduated ninja!" Tiantian was the first one who didn't believe it.

"This is really falling, right?! Let me tell you, this time we're going to the Land of Waves..."

Here comes the Wave Country mission!

After Naruto's fragmented narration, Natsuki roughly understood it. It seemed to be similar to the original. Even though all the members of Team 7 learned to climb trees and walk on water in advance, their strength did not improve much. When they met Zabuza and Hakuhou, the situation was no different.

Zabuza and Haku died together in the end.

It’s such a pity, you know, many people follow Naruto because of the story between these two.

Naruto's words of persuasion did not work. Haku lived only for Zabuza and died for Zabuza. When Haku died, Zabuza realized that he could no longer leave Haku.

After listening to it every day, I was quite touched and didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Xia Mu sighed: "What a tragic love story. What a pity for this couple!"

Eh? Love? Lover?

The three members of Team 7 were a little stunned, but Sakura weakly raised her hand to explain: "Xia, Xia Mu, although the boy named Bai is very cute, he is a boy. He and Zabuza are not in a romantic relationship."

Naruto and Sasuke nodded, meaning that Natsuki had misunderstood.

Xia Mu said as if it was a matter of course: "You guys, why don't you understand? Although the boy named Bai said he was a man, he never said that Zabuza was not a woman!"

Huh? Is this still understandable?!

So, Momochi Zabuza is a woman?!

"Besides, who told you two men can't be in a relationship? Just like Naruto and Sasuke, you both gave each other your first kiss, didn't you?"

"Xia Mu, shut up! Don't mention this!"

Naruto and Sasuke were furious and wanted to rush up and strangle Natsuki to stop him from speaking. Sakura was thinking about that memory and her face was disheveled in the wind.

Sakura: So, Naruto and Sasuke are actually in love? I'm the third party?

Chapter 85 Evaluation of the Wave Country Mission

Tiantian looked incredulous: "Uso! You two are actually... Uh, I'm not discriminating against you, I will respect you!"

"No way! Tiantian, don't listen to Xia Mu's nonsense!"

Naruto and Sasuke were really furious. They didn't expect that Tenten actually believed Natsuki's nonsense.

It is true that they kissed, but it was an accident and there was no love between them at all. Don’t you know that if you don’t believe in rumors or spread them, you won’t know that?

However, at this moment, a voice that shocked them rang out: "Oh, I just arrived and heard such an exciting thing. It seems that as a teacher, I still don't understand you very well. Naruto, Sasuke, I didn't expect you to have such a relationship. I thought you had a bad relationship. I must have been wrong."

Kakashi appeared on the roof at some point, and what he said made Naruto and Sasuke so angry that they almost died.

Naruto jumped up and down on the spot: "Kakashi-sensei! How could you believe Natsuki's nonsense! It was accidental! Sasuke and I kissed by accident!"

Sasuke's expression changed: "Idiot Naruto! Stop talking!"

This idiot was so loud, now the whole world knows that they kissed!

Sure enough, Kakashi's eyes widened: "So, you really kissed? Xia Mu is not talking nonsense? Tsk tsk, the world is really wonderful. But don't worry, I won't discriminate against you!"

"No! Kakashi-sensei-don't talk nonsense!"

Naruto and Sasuke were really blown away, and Sakura was still in a mess.

Xia Mu took out a photo without hesitation and showed it to Tiantian first, which made Tiantian cover her mouth in shock. Then he threw the photo to Kakashi.

Kakashi took it in a daze, and after taking a look, he was even more stunned: "It seems to be real, and there are photos as a souvenir!"

Xia Mu smiled and said, "This is a precise candid shot taken by a super photographer like me. The theme is called the love between Naruto and Sasuke. Or it can be called the beautiful scenery of Team 7. Kakashi-senpai, look carefully, is there Sakura's messy expression in the background?"

Kakashi took another closer look and exclaimed in amazement: "What a great angle they captured! Team 7 is all here! It's truly beautiful!"

"Haha! Right, right? This photo is for Kakashi-senpai. This is a treasure for Team 7!"

"To Team 7's Noble Phantasm? Very good, I'll accept it. From now on, if any of the three of them disobey, I'll go to the photo studio, develop a large photo, and post it on the street so that everyone can come and see this beautiful love!"

"Don't do that, Kakashi-sensei!"

It was a farce that ended with Xia Mu treating everyone to Ichiraku Ramen as an apology. As for the photos, it was impossible to destroy them, as they were the beautiful years of our youth.

In Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant, the four members of Team 7 were eating happily, while Natsuki and Tenten were drinking drinks.

They had just eaten barbecue and were not hungry.

While eating, Naruto looked up and asked, "Natsuki, how did you and Kakashi-sensei know each other?"

Xia Mu didn't hide it and pointed at Tian Tian and said, "Tian Tian's teacher, Might Guy, knows Kakashi-senpai. I just wanted to seek advice from Kakashi-senpai, so I asked Might Guy to introduce him to me."

"I see."

Naruto nodded, but he felt something was wrong. "More than that, right? I heard Kakashi-sensei thinks highly of you, right? There must be more going on between you two than meets the eye!"

Xia Mu rolled his eyes: "Naruto, you are too nosy. Take care of yourself first. I haven't said anything about you yet. This mission went so well, and you were showing off to me just now. I wanted to scold you."

"Huh?" The rest of Team 7 immediately looked over, even Kakashi was surprised.

Sasuke was unhappy: "Xia Mu, do you think we did not do a good job on this mission?"

Xia Mu looked at Kakashi: "Kakashi-senpai..."

Kakashi put down his chopsticks, having already finished his ramen. "That's perfect! I'd also like to hear other people's opinions on this mission. Feel free to speak up, don't worry about me."

Naruto, however, had already stood up. "Natsuki, you can't belittle Team 7 just because you're jealous of us doing a B-rank mission! We completed the mission very well this time. Even Grandpa Hokage praised us and raised our C-rank to B-rank. What did we do wrong?"

Xia Mu glanced at the guy and said, "Look, I haven't even explained it to you yet and you're already anxious. With your impatience, how can you possibly complete the mission? You made a lot of jokes during the mission because of your impatience, right?"

Naruto choked, unable to refute.

·· ·Request flowers· ····

Even Sasuke and Sakura couldn't help but nod.

In fact, it is true. Naruto has a very impulsive personality and has made a lot of jokes along the way.

Xia Mu gathered his words before speaking, "First of all, from the moment you discovered that Dazna was hiding something and that the enemies on the mission would be ninjas, you continued on with the mission without knowing the intelligence at all. That was truly reckless."

"Then are you asking us to just watch Uncle Dazna and the Wave Country die without helping?" Naruto became anxious again.

"Did I ever say you were just standing there watching someone die without helping? I said you were being reckless! Shut up and listen to what I have to say first!"

Xia Mu's tone also turned sour. "Putting aside Dazna's fault for concealing information, you continued the mission with virtually no knowledge of the enemy. This is extremely dangerous and could kill people! You feel pity for Dazna and the Wave Country, but don't you think the lives of your fellow villagers are also important? Can't you pause the mission, report back to the Hokage, and then think of a solution?"

.... .... ....

Naruto opened his mouth, but no sound came out. In fact, after experiencing this mission, he knew it was very dangerous.

If another class were to do it, they might not be as lucky as theirs, and people would really die. By then, if Konoha ninjas died, Konoha Village would not only not help the Wave Country, but would also hold Dazna responsible.

So, what Xia Mu said is actually right!

You want to be a hero and help them, but you can't be reckless, and you can't let your friends fall into danger!

Sakura weakly raised her hand: "Natsuki, Wave Country is very poor. Uncle Dazna doesn't even have the money to issue high-level missions..."

Xia Mu chuckled: "Is that a reason? Can't you pay in installments if you don't have money? Can't you pay in other ways? Is our Hokage that kind of cold-blooded and unreasonable person? If Dazna had told the truth, would the Hokage not have sent people to help? Wouldn't it be okay to wait until he built the bridge and made money from business before paying? But he chose to conceal it and put the Konoha ninja in danger. Is he right? Have you ever believed in the Hokage?"

Sakura opened her mouth, but had nothing to say.

Kakashi scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Well, I am also responsible for this matter."

Chapter 86: Class 7's Frustration

Kakashi did have the responsibility, but he thought it was just a small matter and that he could solve all the problems with him around.

Therefore, it would be a dereliction of duty for him as the teacher to continue the task rashly.

If he had been more cautious and chosen to return to the village and let the Hokage make new arrangements, perhaps it wouldn't have been so dangerous.

Of course, if we follow the conspiracy theory, there is a plan of Sarutobi Hiruzen here. It may be that Sarutobi Hiruzen wants to take action against Cardo and has some intentions towards the Land of Waves. In that case, just pretend that Natsuki didn't say anything.

However, Naruto refused to accept his lesson and remained unconvinced: "But, but we completed the mission, and nothing happened..."

"Everything's alright? Naruto, do you want to listen to what you're saying?"

Xia Mu narrowed his eyes and stared at Naruto, "In fact, Sasuke died once, didn't he? Were you very desperate at that time? Was Sakura very painful at that time? Didn't you taste the pain of losing your "Four Seven Seven" companions?"

Naruto and Sakura's pupils shrank.

Yes, Sasuke died once before, he even stopped breathing!

Naruto was extremely helpless and desperate at that time, even the Nine-Tails' Chakra exploded, and Sakura was crying heartbreakingly. How could she have forgotten?

How can you still be so proud of yourself and say that you have completed the task excellently?

Sasuke said stubbornly: "I am not dead, am I?"

Xia Mu was so angry that he laughed. "You didn't die? That's because that young man named Bai was kind-hearted and didn't kill you! So, you completed the mission by relying on the enemy's kindness? Is this what you call completing the mission excellently?"

Now, Class 7 was completely silent.

Kakashi looked at the three wilted students and shook his head helplessly.

To be honest, Xia Mu's point of view is correct. This mission to the Kingdom of Waves is not something to be proud of, but rather something we should reflect deeply on.

If it weren't for the kind-hearted boy named Bai who didn't kill Sasuke, Team 7 would have brought back Sasuke's body. Would they still be able to laugh then?

Xia Mu concluded: "Naruto, you're reckless and impulsive, lacking strength and composure. Sasuke, you're easily complacent, and think you're invincible after a little progress. Sakura, what were you doing the whole time? What role did you play in the mission? Therefore, if I were to give you an evaluation of this Wave Country mission, it would be a failure!"

Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura lowered their eyes and did not refute.

Even the stupid Naruto is not incapable of thinking, and he can figure out whether what Xia Mu said is right or wrong.

But it is precisely because I have figured it out that I feel so disappointed, and even more ashamed of my previous complacency. What excellent completion of the B-level task? This is clearly a shame!

Seeing this, Xia Mu apologized to Kakashi, "I'm sorry, Kakashi-senpai, was I too harsh?"

Kakashi waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay. What you said makes sense. These little guys are indeed a little bit arrogant. Your words are just right for them to reflect on themselves."

After hearing this, Xia Mu said nothing more.

He just couldn't stand Naruto's smug look, so he had to give him a blow.

To be honest, in the early part of the original work, Naruto was really useless. He loved to brag but was unreliable. He was impatient and prone to causing trouble. His only useful skill was talking. His other performances were disgusting.

If you don't scold him, he will think he is very good and become complacent, and will not learn from his mistakes at all.

So, after Xia Mu finally let it all out, he felt relieved.

At this time, Naruto's voice was filled with grievance: "Teacher Kakashi, did we behave badly?"

Sasuke and Sakura both looked at Kakashi, wanting to get an answer from their teacher. Even though they knew that Natsuki was right, they still wanted to hear their teacher's opinion.

Kakashi scratched his head: "Well, you still have a lot of growing to do."

In other words, the teacher also agrees with Xia Mu’s words!

For a moment, the atmosphere in Class 7 became even more depressing.

However, Sasuke suddenly broke the silence: "Natsuki, fight with me."

"Ah? You want to fight me?"

Xia Mu was very surprised. He thought Sasuke was going to say something, but he didn't expect him to choose to fight. But when he thought about it carefully, it made sense. Sasuke would not talk nonsense like Naruto. He preferred to see the real results with his hands.

That's why Naruto has never been able to convince Sasuke, because Naruto really couldn't beat Sasuke in the early stages.
