Chapter 48: Long Time No See

Kakashi and his party succeeded in sending Dazna home. Although it had been calm, Kakashi's heart was filled with a sense of unease.

"Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura. After dinner, I'll arrange special training for you. Putting down the chopsticks in his hand, Kakashi said.

"Special training?" Naruto asked excitedly.

"Anyway, finish the meal first. ”

After dinner, Kakashi took Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura to a place where there were trees and pools.

"What I'm going to hand over to you is precise chakra control, and the way to do this is ......," Kakashi said, stepping onto the trunk of the tree, step by step towards the treetops, his body perpendicular to the straight trunk, parallel to the ground.

Sakura: "That's amazing!"

"In this way, concentrate the chakra on the footsteps and evenly disperse it to form a suction force that holds itself to the trunk of the tree, and the foot that takes it decreases the suction. Kakashi said as he slashed kunai at the trunk. "It looks simple, but it's not that easy to control. If you can reach this height, you'll probably pass. ”

"Hehe, Kakashi-sensei, is that so?" Naruto, who was standing on the trunk of the other one, smirked.

"This guy!?" Standing on the ground, Sasuke looked at Naruto in surprise.

"Oh, Naruto, have you already been trained to climb trees. And what about treading water?" Kakashi asked Naruto with a sideways face.

"It's been done, it's been done. Naruto smiled and said, "immortals have taught me." ”

Sakura: "Naruto, what a fairy!"

"It's just a lascivious lewd uncle who likes to peep at the women's bathhouse. On the trunk of the tree, Naruto smiled nonchalantly.

Kakashi jumps from the treetops with a backflip. "Naruto is talking about one of the three ninja of Konoha Toad Immortal Jiraiya-sama. ”

Sasuke: "Sanshinobi?"

"It's three ninjas who shook the ninja world after the Second Great Ninja War. In that era, you had to be careful even if it was a shadow in the face of the three shinobi. However, after the three shinobi left Konoha, it is normal that you have not heard of it. ”

"After you graduated, Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, and Tsunadehime, one of the three ninjas, both returned to Konoha. ”

Kakashi said, looking up at Naruto in the treetops.

"You're very lucky, Naruto, Jiraiya-sama is the teacher of the fourth Hokage. ”

"What!" Naruto called out in unison. Naruto even fell from the treetops.

"Really, you've got a big bargain!" Naruto grinned, "and he taught me a great ninjutsu." ”

Sakura: "What ninjutsu, Naruto?"

"Secret ~ Secret, but it's super powerful. Sakura's attention made Naruto very proud. He peeked at Sasuke, only to find that Sasuke's face was horribly gloomy.

'What, you look like a stinky fart. ’

Sasuke silently pulled out the kunai and ran up the trunk of the tree, but he didn't run a few steps before he fell hard.

"Damn!" a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes, and Sasuke ran up the tree again.

'Stimulated by Naruto, maybe it's a good thing. Sasuke, it's time to get rid of the arrogance that comes with being a genius,' Kakashi thought, and asked Sakura to train together.

"Naruto, now that you've learned this. Then go and protect Mr. Dazner. ”

"Yes, Kakashi-sensei. ”

Soon, Sakura, who is proficient in chakra control, also completed tree climbing training. This impressed Kakashi, who had always left Kakashi with the impression of just an ordinary girl.

"It's not just Naruto, I'm not even as good as Sakura. Damn! How can I take revenge for such a me!"

"Oh my stupid brother......"

"Damn!" Kunai sliced through the bark with great force, causing the sawdust to fly, and Sasuke Uchiha fell to the ground again.

"Kakashi-sensei, I want to stay and take care of Sasuke. If it goes on like this, it will hurt~" Sakura said worriedly.

"There's no need!" Sasuke, who was sore all over, struggled to his feet. "It's just a small injury. ”

Leaving his gaze from the intimacy heaven, Kakashi glanced at Sasuke, who was a little untenable. His persistent look reminded Kakashi of bringing toto.

"Let's go, Sakura-chan. Naruto, who only had a thick line on Dazna's side, couldn't do it. ”

"Got it. Sakura replied, and turned to look at Sasuke, "Sasuke-kun, don't be too reluctant." ”

An hour later......

Sasuke, who fell to the ground again, lay on the ground weakly.

'My stupid brother......

'Damn!'

"Some things, if you are too eager, will be more difficult to achieve?" An inexplicably familiar voice came from the woods.

"What someone!" Sasuke suddenly stood up from the ground, and looked at the shadows with a kun in his hand. And because of his blood pressure, his eyes went dark, and it took a while to recover.

A figure stepped out of the shadows, gradually allowing Sasuke to see his full appearance.

Sasuke's eyes widened in disbelief.

The man had Sasuke's familiar face and his familiar smile.

"Long time no see, Sasuke!"

"You are, Brother Zhishui!"
