Early the next morning, Naruto and Sakura arrived at the meeting place.

"Hello everyone!" Sakai greeted with a smile.

"You...... You're not ......" Naruto looked at his new companion in surprise.

Sakura-chan.

"Hello everyone, my name is Yamato, and I'm here to take the place of Kakashi's predecessor for the time being. "Yamato.

"Naruto, do you know him?" Sakura-chan.

"I'm sorry yesterday because I want to know how strong the person who is about to become my new partner is, because I don't know how far I need to cover you for this non-fertile guy. Sakai smiled.

"What are you talking about!?" Naruto was furious.

"Hey, we're going to be friends soon, how can we quarrel!" Sakura said to Sakai again, "But you're giving a bad impression......"

"Yes, I like ugly girls like you. "Sakai.

"Bastard! what are you talking about!" Sakura immediately rushed forward, and Yamato immediately stopped Sakura: "Calm down! Do you remember what you just said to Naruto?"

……

"Ahem...... Anyway, the four of us are about to go on a mission, but you get along like this...... There's no time for you to get acquainted with each other...... Let me introduce myself again, my name is Yamato. "Yamato.

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki. ”

"I'm Sakura Haruno. ”

"I'm Sakai. ”

"Anyway, we already know each other. I'll talk about Kakashiban's mission: From now on, the four of us are going to the Heaven and Earth Bridge, catch the spy sent by Akatsuki to the Orochimaru Organization, and bring him back here. This is a great opportunity to get information from Orochimaru and Sasuke Uchiha. I hope you will give it your all. An hour later, we gathered at the main entrance and everyone went to get ready. "Yamato.

Everyone went back to their respective establishments.

"I don't like that guy named Sakai! Why would he take Sasuke's place...... 3 people in Kakashiban are enough......" Naruto was still angry.

“…… Although his mouth is unforgiving, don't you think he resembles Sasuke, both in his appearance and voice...... "Sakura-chan."

"Where is he like Sasuke!" Naruto.

（！————）

After Sakura and Naruto separated, they went straight to the Hokage's office.

"That's right...... It's already like this......" Tsunade.

"That's right...... Sakura-chan.

"Nerve-wracking, you can find a way to control Naruto......" Tsunade.

"I'll try ......" Sakura.

"Knock knock. "There was a knock at the door.

"Come in. "Tsunade.

Tuan Zang pushed the door in.

"What's the matter?" Tsunade.

"I wonder if you've sent a good member of the Dark Division to be the captain of Sakai's team?"

"I chose the third Hokage to be the captain of the strongest master in the shadows. "Tsunade.

"Good, but I hope he's not affected by the third and fifth generations of the fight-only idiots who have become timid because they hate arguments......" As soon as Danzou finished speaking, a dark knife was placed around his neck.

"Say it again!" "Kasami was upset by what Danzou had just said.

"Kasami, stop!" Tsunade.

"Do you know what you're doing now? Your grandfather doesn't want to see the reputation of the Ape Fei clan ruined by you. "Tuanzang.

"I joined the Shadows just to prove to my grandfather that I've become stronger. "Kasama.

"Is it another person who has been carried away by power? Sure enough, he has been following the five generations for a long time and has lost his mind. Danzou continued to irritate Kasama.

Kasami pressed the blade down and down, and the clothes on Danzo's left shoulder gradually became red with blood.

"Stop! Don't do anything stupid!" Tsunade.

"I don't have much nostalgia for this village anymore, and if I betray it, I can gain more power, and I will not hesitate to take this path......" Kasami withdrew his sword.

Tuan Zang left without saying a word.

"You're so uncool!" Tsunade.

"I've been unhappy with those three old things for a long time, and if it weren't for Nami's still in the village, I would have left a long time ago. After Kasami finished speaking, he calmed down and took out a letter.

"By the way, this is a letter from the Alliance. Kasa Yu handed the letter to Tsunade, and Tsunade took the letter, and after reading the contents of the letter: "Kasama, you go to Tsukinobi Village immediately, and then send the letter back after learning about the specific situation." ”

"Yes. Kasama left immediately.

"That...... Teacher, who is that person's shadow?" Sakura asked, confused.

"Her name is Sarutobi Yu, she is the granddaughter of Principal Yanichi, not long after she was born, her parents died in the war, and it was the principal who brought her up, and since the principal's death, her mentality has changed dramatically...... "Tsunade."

（！————）

On the way to the country of grass, Naruto kept an eye on Sakai.

“…… Is there something wrong?"

"Even though he looks and sounds like him, it'......" Naruto thought.

"Don't keep staring at me, be careful that I beat you. "Sakai.

"The way you speak is so unpleasant!" Naruto said angrily.

"I have no ill intentions, the book says, and speaking like this is conducive to enhancing the sense of intimacy. Sakai explained.

"That's malice! you're so annoying!" Naruto yelled.

"Hey, Naruto, how do you speak? Kakashi-senpai should have taught you, a class, the most important thing is mutual trust and team spirit. In a class led by the great Kakashi's predecessors, how could there be a team member like you?"

"Because he's not a member of Kakashiban at all!The other member of our class is Sasuke!"

"I feel relieved to hear you say that, I don't want to be compared to the person who betrayed the village, was weak, and went to Orochimaru in pursuit of power. "Sakai.

"You guy!" Naruto was already furious.

"Click-" Sakura punched Sakai directly in the face, "You don't know anything about Sasuke at all, and if you say bad things about Sasuke again, I won't let you go!"

"I see, I'm not going to speak ill of Sasuke in front of you anymore. Sakai took a step back.

"The Four-Pillar Prison (using wood to form a cage). "Yamato directly locked up the three people.

Naruto was surprised.

Sakura was surprised and thought to herself, "Isn't this a secret technique that only the first Hokage can do?"

"Now that I, the leader, have a good proposal, in order to deepen your mutual affection, let's spend a day in a cage. "Yamato.

（！————）

The next morning.

Sakura, who got up early, wanted to go for a walk by the lake, but when she came to the lake, she found Sakai drawing.

"It turns out that you can draw, and even though you don't have a forgiving mouth, there are still delicate places...... Sakura.

"......" Sakai.

"......" Sakura saw that Sakai didn't speak, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere, "What's the name of your painting?"

"I've painted tens of thousands of paintings so far, but I've never named them. "Sakai.

"However, if it's a portrait, it's named after that person, and the rest depends on the situation at the time of the painting or the mood you were in at the time. "Sakura-chan.

"Even if I choose a name, I can't do anything because I can't think of anything, I can't feel anything, and I don't know what feelings are......" Sakai.

"......" Sakura.

"So you say things all day long that don't care about other people's feelings. Naruto looked at Sakai with an unhappy expression, "Captain Yamato asked me to tell you to get ready to go. ”

"Got it. "Sakura-chan.

Sakai immediately packed up his things, and Sakura said, "I'll help you." Sakura picked up a book and looked at the cover, "This isn't printed, did you draw it?"

"Hmm......" Sakai.

"Eh~ You're so good, and you even drew a picture album. Sakura complimented.

"Hmph!" Naruto was upset.

"Is that the villain on this cover?" Sakura.

"No, he's my brother. "Sakai.

"Have you all cleaned up?" Yamato walked over.

"It's been packed. "Sakai.

"Let's go, then. "Yamato.

"......" Naruto still looked at Sakai with an angry expression.

“…… If you have something to say, just say it. "Sakai.

"I still don't recognize you as my companion, and I don't recognize you as a member of Kakashiban, but I'm willing to do anything to save Sasuke, even if it's a partner with you. "Naruto.

"Why are you so attached to Sasuke?"

"I've always considered Sasuke my brother!" Naruto.

"Don't you have an older brother too, so you can feel his feelings a little...... "Sakura-chan."

"I don't understand ...... at all," Sakai, "when I talked to you about the subject of the painting, I told you that I don't have such a thing as feelings." ”

"However, you also have a brother, so you can imagine what it feels like to lose one, right?" Sakura-chan.

"Oh, that's right, but my brother is dead......" Sakai.

"Eh!" Sakura-chan, Naruto.

"Did you die in the line of duty?" Sakura asked cautiously.

"No...... He is in front of me...... I killed you...... So I can't ...... it," Sakai smiled.

Naruto and Sakura were taken aback.

Yamato thought to himself: "It's really in line with the style of the group...... and then said: "Don't talk anymore, take your luggage and set off quickly!"
