Naruto: First Love

Chapter 222: Haruno Sakura's Awakening, the Message Left by the Defector

"You also know that Huo Wu defected?" Naruto wanted to leave, but when he heard Haruno Sakura's words, he immediately came back. "What's going on? Why did Huo Wu defect?"

"Who knew?" Haruno Sakura curled her lips, "She doesn't look like him at all. Who knew she would betray Konoha? Really, how could she be assigned to Team 7!"

"Sakura-chan..." Naruto looked at Haruno Sakura in shock, unable to believe that this was how Haruno Sakura viewed Huo Wu.

Even if others believed that Huo Wu had defected, he would not believe it without seeing her in person. He thought that the people in the original Team 7 would not believe it, but Xiaoying believed it before and said such words.

Naruto didn't look at Sakura again. He turned his head so that Haruno Sakura wouldn't see his expression. "Well, I'm going to go find Kakashi-sensei first."

Haruno Sakura opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but found that Naruto had already left.

Naruto……

She seemed to have discovered that she was being disliked...

In the past, no matter what she said, Naruto would agree with her, but gradually, they began to agree with Huo Wu, and even Sasuke would focus his attention on Huo Wu.

"Sakura!"

Ino's voice came from behind and Haruno Sakura turned around.

Ino, Shikamaru, Choji, what are they doing? "Ino?"

"Sakura, what are you doing here?" Ino came over, put his arm around her shoulders and asked enthusiastically.

Haruno Sakura rarely resisted her touch, feeling down, "Naruto is back from training, but what happened to Sasuke? When will our team 7 start their mission? Is it because Huo Wu defected that they don't trust us anymore?"

Asumaban looked at each other.

"Why do you have such an idea?" Ino looked at her strangely, "Wasn't Huo Wu your teammate before? Don't you know her?"

Shikamaru did recall meeting Huo Wu at Asuma's house before, and he kind of got to know Huo Wu.

People like Huo Wu actually hate trouble.

She doesn't like to do troublesome things. She has always been smart and must know that defection is the most troublesome thing. Why would she do it?
"I trust a woman from Asuma's family." Shikamaru casually said "What a trouble" and turned and left.

Ino shouted urgently, "Ah, Shikamaru, wait a minute, you bastard!"

Choji had already followed, but he had something in his mouth, so he didn't say anything.

Ino said to Haruno Sakura, "I'm leaving now, bye." and chased after Shikamaru. "Ah, really, didn't Asuma-sensei say that this mission wasn't urgent?"

"After completing this mission, we still need to find someone. Otherwise, why do you think Asuma specifically asked us to go outside the village to do the mission?" Shikamaru responded, "It's really troublesome."

Haruno Sakura was stunned as she watched them leave.

Ino said that she didn't trust Huo Wu, so is that why Naruto treated her like that?
But how could she trust her?
I've known Huo Mai since she came to Konoha, on her first day of school, she was close to Naruto, and also to Sasuke, which was either problematic or really enthusiastic.

Shikamaru has an IQ of 200, and he thinks there is no problem. Either Huo Wu really has no problem, or he has also been deceived.

In fact, what Ino said was right. Huo Wu had been in Konoha for so long, but she had not done anything harmful or bad. Huo Wu had not been in Team 7 for a long time. But in the few missions that Huo Wu participated in, she completed them very well.

They didn't complete many missions, let alone C-level ones, and the one that was C-level was the one in Wave Country.

Huo Wu did not take action on the bridge during the incident in Wave Country, but she did take action when she met Zabuza for the first time. She was able to discover the young man before them, and her perception was very strong.

Later, during Yamamoto Ichiro's mission, he discovered that Huo Wu was smart, good at ninjutsu, and even used chakra better than her.

The members of Class 7 all seem to prefer Huo Wu, which is actually normal, because Huo Wu is so outstanding.
Forget about Naruto. When Huo Wu first came to Konoha, she lived with Naruto for a while. Naruto kept talking to her in her ears every day, and she knew that.

Naruto is close to Huo Wu because Huo Wu believes in him. Although she doesn't know how Naruto could become a strong man, the fact is that Naruto has indeed become stronger.

Sasuke said that it was Naruto who saved her from the Sand. She didn't quite believe it, but it seemed that they all knew that it was Naruto who saved her, even Huo Wu knew it.

Naruto has become stronger, what Huo Wu said is right.

What about Sasuke?

Is it because Huo Wu is very smart, smart enough to know their future achievements, so they all like Huo Wu?

Ah, come to think of it, Huo Wu didn’t do anything to let down Team 7.

I heard that being disqualified as a ninja just means that one can no longer be a ninja, but after Huo Wu was disqualified as a ninja, she actually did better in Konoha.

She doesn't need to experience the life and death of a ninja, and can do whatever she wants all day long...

It's a pity that Haruno Sakura still doesn't know that during the time when Huo Wu was not a ninja, she was either on the run or training every day. She was definitely lucky to have a day off occasionally.

All Haruno Sakura knew was that Huo Wu had defected from Konoha. As for why she defected, she didn't know because it was not written on the wanted poster.

However, Huo Wu doesn’t look like an undercover agent from other countries, although no one can tell who the undercover is.

Sensei Kakashi also believed in her very much, and it is said that she learned ninjutsu from Sensei Kakashi before she became a Genin.

Teacher Kakashi would know the reason why Huo Wu defected, right?

But Kakashi-sensei and Sasuke were injured, and when she heard the news and went to look for them, she found that they were gone. The hospital just said that they were discharged.

Discharged?

She still remembered hearing someone say that Sasuke was almost unconscious when he was brought back. Is it really okay to be discharged so early?
But she couldn't find anyone, she couldn't find Kakashi and Sasuke, nor could she find anyone who knew them.

Sasuke was the only one in his family, and he didn't socialize with anyone. Kakashi had friends, but they were all jonin, and Haruno Sakura didn't know them.

Speaking of which, why did Huo Wu defect? ​​After defecting, why didn't Kakashi, the captain of Team 7, express any opinion at all? Was it because he was recovering from his injuries?

Looking at the direction where Ino and the others left, Haruno Sakura immediately turned around, "Naruto~"

Naruto had already gone far away and had even found Kakashi.

Or maybe it wasn't him who found it, but the Fifth Hokage.

"Teacher Kakashi, what's going on? Why did Huo Wu defect?!"

"Naruto, don't worry about this for now. You just need to remember that Huo Wu was once the Huo Wu of Konoha and a member of Team 7." Kakashi looked lazy again and spoke with a smile, as if he had never experienced student defection.

"Huh?" Naruto didn't understand.

"You don't need to understand. Go ahead and practice well. Do you remember what you said to Huo Wu? You want to become Hokage." Kakashi put his hands in his pockets, looking nonchalant.
