I rely on myself

Chapter 686 Chunin Assessment
As soon as Kakashi arrived at the meeting place, he saw from afar that Naruto and Sasuke had started arguing again.

The first time he saw it, Kakashi showed a helpless expression on his face, although he had seen the same scene many times since the establishment of Team 7.

If it weren't for the battles and their normal cooperation, although Naruto and Sasuke quarreled and argued a lot, the tacit understanding between them was indeed very good, even surprisingly good.

If it weren't for this, seeing how they had a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days, Kakashi would have thought that they were enemies in their previous life or something. And even though the quarrels were fierce, the more they did this, the better the tacit understanding between the two guys.

So after getting used to it, Kakashi rarely cares about it anymore. He even thinks that this noisy way might be just right for the communication between Naruto and Sasuke.

Although he wanted to continue watching, thinking of today's business, Kakashi used the instant body-flickering technique and instantly appeared between Naruto and Sasuke and said with a smile: "Oh, I heard your voices from a long way away. Are you talking about something interesting? Can I join in?"

"Teacher Kakashi!" x3
Kakashi's sudden appearance naturally scared the three members of Team 7.

But after being stunned for a moment, the most impatient Naruto came to his senses first, and said to Kakashi anxiously: "Teacher Kakashi, I have something to ask you, which is..."

"Okay, Naruto, you don't have to tell me, I can roughly guess what it is. Don't worry. The reason why I called you together today is to explain this matter." Kakashi stretched out his hand to interrupt Naruto and then explained seriously.

As soon as these words came out, Sasuke and Sakura, who were originally planning to ask, immediately stopped and waited quietly for Kakashi's explanation.

"I believe you have noticed in the past few days that there are suddenly many outsiders in the village, and some are even ninjas from other ninja villages. Just as you think, this year's Chunin Examination is about to begin again."

After hearing what Kakashi said, the three of them looked at each other. Naruto and Sasuke were immediately excited, while Sakura was a little timid.

Kakashi saw all of this but didn't say anything. He waited for the three to understand and then continued, "Let's get back to the point. I personally don't care about this Chunin Exam, so it's up to you to decide whether to participate or not."

As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto couldn't wait to say, "Teacher Kakashi, I want to take part in this Chunin exam. If I pass it successfully, I can become a Chunin, right? Then I will be one step closer to the goal of becoming Hokage. It's really exciting!!"

Unlike Naruto's obvious excitement, Sasuke was also excited, but was obviously much more restrained. He thought that since it was a Chunin exam, and people from other ninja villages were participating, there must be many good players. Fighting with them would definitely help him improve his strength faster, and that way he would be able to take revenge on him faster. This was Sasuke's idea.

But Sakura said nothing about it, she just lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

The performances of the three people were very unique, and Kakashi saw it all but said nothing, continuing to explain the situation regarding the Chunin examination.

"Okay Naruto, I know you're excited, but even so you just have to listen to me first."

Hearing that there was something else, Naruto was a little depressed, but he still calmed down, and Sasuke and Sakura also looked at Kakashi.

"As I said before, it's up to you to decide whether or not to participate in this Chunin Exam, so I've prepared the information for you. Here!"

Kakashi handed over three sheets of information that were obviously the information of the three members of Team 7. After seeing that the three had received their own information sheets, Kakashi continued, "The way to participate in this Chunin Exam is very simple. Just bring your information to the exam site on time one week from now. The method of participation is that simple... Okay, that's all I have to say. In order to let you think clearly about whether to participate in this Chunin Exam, you don't need to gather for missions in the next week. You can take this time to think carefully. Now we are dismissed."

As soon as he finished speaking, a cloud of smoke suddenly exploded under Kakashi's feet. As the smoke dissipated, Kakashi's figure also disappeared.

"Hey! I still have something to ask Kakashi-sensei! Damn it, you're running so fast!"

Naruto looked regretful. Sasuke, who was standing by, looked at the scene and said helplessly, "You really deserve to be the last one."

"Damn it! Sasuke, you are looking for trouble, right? I, Uzumaki Naruto, will not let you go today..."

If it were any other time, Sasuke might still be in the mood to quarrel with Naruto, but now after knowing about the Chunin exam, he immediately felt the urgency of time and was eager to go home to continue his training. He didn't have the time to continue quarreling with Naruto and wasted time.

"I don't have time to play house with you here. I'm leaving now!"

After saying that, Sasuke didn't wait for an answer. He jumped hard with his feet and instantly jumped onto the roof. Then he took a few more steps and his figure quickly disappeared.

Naruto was naturally furious when he saw this, but there was no one else present except Sakura, so he just swallowed his anger and waited for a chance to settle with Sasuke later.

Afterwards, Naruto and Sakura also disbanded and left for their own homes to think about whether to participate in this Chunin exam. Of course, it was only Sakura who was thinking about it, while Naruto already had the answer.

On the other side, Kakashi was about to go home to taste the newly released "Intimate Paradise" when an Anbu ninja suddenly came to him and told him that the Third Hokage wanted to see him for something.

Kakashi naturally felt helpless about this. After all, the Third Hokage suddenly sent someone to find him at this time. There must be something going on. However, there was no way. Kakashi could not refuse and turned to go to the Hokage Building.

There was a knock on the door, and at the Third Hokage's call of "Come in", Kakashi opened the door and walked into the office and said to the Third Hokage who was buried in a document.

"Sir, Kakashi is here to report."

Hearing what Kakashi said, the Third Hokage finally raised his head, smiled kindly at Kakashi and said, "Oh, Kakashi, thank you for coming over. It's hard work."

"No! It's nothing. Let's get back to the point. Third-sama, did you ask me to come here because of something?"

Kakashi got straight to the point, and the Third Hokage's expression became serious: "Actually..."
