"It seems that it's not as simple as making you understand..."

"Remember what I said..."

"Ninjas exist to complete missions; those who break the rules and abandon their missions are called trash, however..."

"A person who doesn't cherish their comrades is worse than trash!"

"Those who don't cherish their comrades are worse than trash..."

Kakashi's words echoed in the hearts of Naruto, Sasuke, and Hinata.

Each of the three had their own thoughts, pondering the meaning of those words...

"Kakashi-sensei, do you have companions too?"

Naruto couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Ok?"

Kakashi touched his nose, seemingly lost in memories, but quickly snapped out of it.

"Well, it happened before..."

"This sentence itself was actually told to me by a companion."

Naruto asked, "Where is he?"

Kakashi smiled and said, "He's gone..."

Naruto was startled.

His former companions were gone, yet the man before him could speak of it so casually…

Was he simply too cold-hearted, or had he become accustomed to this grief?

Naruto swallowed hard, not daring to ask any more questions.

Kakashi scratched his head and smiled slightly.

"There's no need to be so serious."

"Now that I have approved of you, Class Seven is officially established from today."

"And you are all official ninjas now."

"Starting tomorrow, I will lead you on real missions."

"Same training ground as always. See you at seven o'clock sharp tomorrow morning."

After saying this, Kakashi turned and left, casually taking out "Icha Icha Paradise" from his pouch and continuing to read it, waving at the three of them without turning back.

Naruto and Hinata exchanged a glance and both shook their heads.

"Hey, Hinata, don't you think Kakashi-sensei is acting a little strange...?"

Hinata nodded obediently.

"Although he's very powerful, his temper is indeed a bit strange..."

"She seems lazy and doesn't care about anything, but..."

"I always felt that Kakashi-sensei must have gone through something terrible and dark to become like this. It's not that he doesn't care about anything, but that he's suppressed his sadness and pain deep inside..."

Naruto was full of admiration: "Wow, Hinata, you're so observant! You're so perceptive!"

Hinata blushed and waved her little hand.

"No, no..."

"I'm just guessing..."

Sasuke couldn't stand seeing the two of them flirting.

He rolled his eyes at Naruto, put his hands in his pockets, and turned to leave.

Hinata quickly asked, "Is Sasuke going back?"

But Sasuke ignored him as well.

Naruto snorted, "That arrogant guy!"

"He's still as annoying as ever!"

Hinata secretly covered her mouth and chuckled.

"What are you laughing at, Hinata!"

Hinata said softly, "Naruto-kun may say that, but he actually cares a lot about Sasuke, right?"

Naruto was taken aback.

"Me? I care about that bastard Sasuke?!"

"Yes, although Naruto would never admit it, he's always considered him both a friend and a rival..."

"He wants to surpass him, defeat him to prove himself, but at the same time, the person he most wants to be recognized is Sasuke, right..."

Naruto was caught off guard after Hinata saw through his thoughts.

"Ah, is there...is there?"

He scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly, trying to hide his embarrassment.

Hinata smiled gently: "Actually, I can tell that Sasuke feels the same way about Naruto..."

"and……"

"And what?"

"As you could see from the sparring session just now, Naruto-kun and Sasuke-kun would probably be truly invincible if they teamed up!"

Naruto, recalling the attack he had just received, knew in his heart that what Kakashi-sensei and Hinata had said was true.

only……

He would never admit it.

"Hmph, who would cooperate with a guy like that? He acts all high and mighty and looks down on everyone!"

"Speaking of which, Hinata, we're comrades now, so we should work together properly!"

Hinata blushed again and mustered her courage to reach out her little hand.

"Then, please take good care of me, Naruto-kun."

Naruto casually took Hinata's small hand.

"Great! Hinata is the same way!"

Hinata blushed and her heart pounded as he held her small hand. She quickly pulled her hand away and ran off.

"Goodbye, Naruto-kun..."

"See you tomorrow……"

Naruto's outstretched hand froze in mid-air.

"Hinata, that girl, sometimes acts really weird..."

He put his hands behind his head and left the training field as well.

Along the way, recalling the battle just now, and the words spoken by Kakashi-sensei and Hinata, I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions...

He was once a bottom-of-the-class student, but now he's a recognized genius ninja!

Only Naruto himself knows how much hardship and effort he put in.

Even more so, it involves arduous ascetic practices that risk one's life!

Of course, it wouldn't have been possible without the help of those people...

Iruka-sensei, Hinata, Lee, the thick-browed teacher, Asuma-sensei...

Maybe that includes Sasuke too...

If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have worked so hard...

Moreover, would it really be invincible to cooperate with Sasuke?

The Wind Release: Gale Palm and Sasuke's Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique were indeed more powerful than ever before...

"Sasuke..."

The name flashed through Naruto's mind, along with Sasuke's smug face...

"By the way, the double-tomoe Sharingan, although I don't know what that is, it certainly looks very powerful..."

"Looks like that bastard Sasuke has gotten a lot stronger too!"

"Indeed, I can't let my guard down either!"

at the same time.

Sasuke was also thinking about the same thing.

"Shadow Clone Technique, Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Taijutsu, Wind Release Ninjutsu..."

"That loser is getting stronger and stronger, to a terrifying degree!"

"Damn it! I will never lose to that kind of guy!"

He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

Naruto couldn't help but sneeze again.

"It must be that bastard Sasuke cursing at me again..."

Back home, Naruto quickly ate lunch and then spent the afternoon registering as a ninja.

Now that you've passed Kakashi-sensei's test and officially become a genin, you must register your ninja information and be on file.

This is to make it easier to accept tasks in the future.

Becoming a ninja is a crucial step, so ninja registration requires the personal approval of the Hokage.

Although Naruto's strength has increased dramatically, his personality hasn't changed much.

When taking his ID photo, he still jokingly drew some doodles on himself.

When he arrived before the Hokage, he handed over his identification, but was stared at for a long time by Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was smoking a pipe and had a furrowed brow, before finally delivering his verdict.

"Re-photographed".

Naruto was devastated: "Why?!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said in a deep voice, "A ninja's identification, information, and registration are all very important. They are the credentials for accepting commissions from others in the future, and you can't afford to be careless about them."

"Naruto, you, Sasuke, and Hinata passed Kakashi's test, which is a remarkable achievement, considering that man has wiped out his disciples several times in a row."

"However, that doesn't mean you can cause trouble..."

Naruto pouted, unconvinced, and said, "Do we really have to take another picture?"

"Not bad!"

A thought flashed through his mind: he was about to use the Sexy Jutsu to deal with the Hokage...

Suddenly.

A short figure suddenly appeared, wielding a shuriken and charging towards Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Grandpa, let's fight to the death!"

However, after taking only two steps, he was caught by his own long scarf and fell to the ground with a thud.

He screamed and covered his head, crying.

"As expected of the Hokage, he even set up a trap like this?!"

Naruto looked at the child as if he were an idiot...

At that moment, a man in black hurriedly stepped out from behind him.

"Young Master Konohamaru! Don't disturb the Hokage's work!"
