Ichiraku ramen shop.

Naruto Uzumaki took out his notebook, took a pen and wrote and drew on it for a while before ordering a bowl of tonkotsu ramen, and Sasuke and Sakura also picked the more expensive ramen.

Kakashi Hagi held his chin beside him and looked at his three subordinates: "Tsk, you really don't want to save me money!" ”

"Kakashi-sensei is a shinobi!" Sakura Haruno smiled and waved her hand and said, "The savings must be very rich!" ”

"Shangnin doesn't have much money..."

Kakashi Hachiki waved at the waiter at the Ichiraku ramen shop, "Miss Calamus, can you give me the cheapest consommé noodles?" ”

"Huh?"

Calamus turned her head to look at Kakashi Hagi, who was full of helplessness, and couldn't help but cover her lips and chuckle, "Okay, Mr. Kakashi." ”

Waiting for the ramen to come up, Naruto Uzumaki finished writing his notes and said loudly, "Kakashi-sensei, why haven't you seen a lecherous fairy lately..."

"Well, probably the senior has his own things to do!"

Kakashi Hagi knocked on the table and casually told a small lie, as far as he knew, Jiraiya's meeting with the third Hokage should not be pleasant, apparently that Konoha Haojie did not intend to succeed the position of the fifth Hokage, so he hid.

Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas of Konoha, is actually a traveling frog who likes freedom, never likes to go home, and is unwilling to accept any constraints.

Perhaps there are deeper reasons for this, such as the Shimura Tunzo hidden in the shadows, and the fact that he may not have negotiated the handling of the Tunzang matter, which is the biggest problem that Jiraiya resents.

That night, when Kakashi Hachiki saw Sarutobi in the ward, the old man's face was not good-looking, and it should have been after that night that Jiraiya left Konoha again!

At least, it's out of the sight of the Konoha ninja.

"Is that so?"

Naruto Uzumaki frowned: "I obviously said that I would help me cultivate, but I haven't seen anyone until now..."

"Really?"

The white-haired guide Shangnin chatted perfunctorily, extremely irresponsible, according to the progress of Naruto Uzumaki's current development of ninjutsu, who would dare to frankly help him practice?

It's said that it's cultivation, but it's actually helping him experiment with the effect of ninjutsu, right?

And it's the kind that you might go to the hospital at any time...

Kakashi Hachiki glanced at the price list of Ichiraku Ramen Shop and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "I really miss that guy from Tenzo..."

Tenzo, the same Wood Escape Ninja who was taken from the root by the Sarutobi Slash, is also one of Kakashi's friends in the Shadows.

The relationship between the two of them is deep...

Therefore, when Kakashi Hachiki was serving as a ninja in the Shadows, he often teased Tenzo to help him pay, which was one of the rare warmth in his cold-blooded Shadow Career.

"Senpai."

An arm suddenly reached out and patted Kakashi on the shoulder, his face wearing a cute animal mask, apparently a shadow ninja.

Everyone in the seventh class involuntarily turned their heads and looked at the comer, Kakashi Hachiki looked at him a little puzzled: "Hey, hey, why did you guys suddenly come out?" ”

"Didn't my predecessor just talk about me?"

The shadow ninja Tenzo was in an inexplicably happy mood, but he had no intention of staying, so he just said in a deep voice: "Senior, the third generation has something to summon you." ”

"Huh?"

Kakashi Hachiki looked at the ramen that Irisa had already started to serve the ramen, and said seriously, "It's for the Chunin exam, right?" ”

"I don't know."

"Then let's hurry up!"

"Wait..."

"The money hasn't been paid yet..."

"Kakashi-sensei..."

Kakashi, who was supposed to be a treat, is gone, and this time he should not be to avoid paying the bill, but because of the summons of the three generations of Hokage.

Naruto Uzumaki was holding ramen in his hand, flipping through the notebook in his hand; Sakura Haruno was quietly eating ramen, not knowing what she was thinking; Sasuke Uchiha stirred his chopsticks a little boredly.

After Kakashi slipped away with the ninja of the Shadows, they had to pay for the expensive ramen they ordered, even the one Kakashi bought.

Calamus suddenly stretched out her finger and tapped Naruto's forehead: "Naruto, did you forget something important?" ”

Anyone close to Naruto knew that Naruto Uzumaki didn't have a very good memory, and would always jot down some important things, and even then he always missed them.

"Well, no."

Huang Mao Shinobu put down the chopsticks in his hand and said softly, "Just remember the ninjutsu that Sasuke just learned, so as not to forget it in the next battle." ”

“……”

Uchiha Sasuke choked and glanced at him dissatisfied: "When fighting, where will there be time for you to look at your notebook... And in case you encounter an enemy and your notebook falls into the hands of the enemy, didn't you leak my information? ”

"Don't say that, Sasuke..."

Naruto Uzumaki smiled at him and whispered, "If my notebook is snatched away, then the enemy must have defeated me, with Sasuke's strength..."

The unfinished meaning in his words made Uchiha Sasuke grit his teeth and snort coldly: "Hurry up and eat, I have to go to the mission assembly hall in the afternoon!" ”

"I wish there were some easier tasks..."

Sakura Haruno wanted to go to the few missions they had performed, and couldn't help but shudder: "Let's not take those C-level missions or something..."

Just an ordinary C-level mission made Sakura Haruno hospitalized for half a month, and even almost lost her life.

Just as the three little guys in the seventh class were filling their stomachs, an unfamiliar voice came from the street: "Don't you even dare to take on the C-level task?" Konoha ninjas don't look like they're remarkable..."

Another female voice came in, and there was some helplessness in her voice: "Kanjiuro, this is not Shayin Village after all..."

"Temari, you're too careful..."

"I just hope my brother doesn't get into trouble."

"The woman outside, but he's already in trouble..."Uchiha Sasuke put down the chopsticks in his hand, and the whole person suddenly rushed out!

Click!

The sound of something breaking came out!

When Naruto Uzumaki and Sakura Haruno walked out of the ramen shop, they saw Sasuke struggling to break the neck of a puppet, and he was about to tear the puppet apart.

Standing across from him were three strange ninjas.

The most nervous of them all was a young girl, who clutched a huge fan tightly in her hand and watched Uchiha Sasuke's movements warily.

The male ninja standing next to the girl, his face covered in oil paint, looked a little funny, and there was some horror on his face.

Only the boy standing at the end of them, with red hair and dark circles under his eyes, carrying a huge gourd, looked at Sasuke Uchiha with interest.

The three of them each wore a ninja forehead guard on their heads, which was completely different from Konoha's.

Naruto Uzumaki's gaze swept over the oil paint ninja and the female ninja, his eyes resting on the red hair, and his brain gradually began to ache...

It should be a very important person.

Naruto Uzumaki forcibly stopped his thoughts, his fingers unconsciously began to press his temples, and he said with some headaches, "They are..."

"Sand Hidden Ninja."

Sakura Haruno replied in a deep voice, pulling out her kunai.
