"Introduction complete. I have something to do. Meet at the second practice field at 5 a.m. tomorrow. Don't eat then."
Kakashi was getting impatient; he couldn't stand Sora's teasing anymore, even though there was some truth to it.
[Anyone who goes tomorrow morning is a fool. Kakashi never imagined heading to the training grounds at 5 a.m. His path is always bumpy; either he's helping old ladies cross the street or a black cat is blocking his way.]
[As for treating the whole class to ramen, Kakashi had completely forgotten about it.]
"Kakashi-sensei is so mean! He didn't go himself and made us wait for him!" Sakura shouted.
Naruto nodded in deep agreement and said:
"Kakashi-sensei can't leave yet; he hasn't treated us to Ichiraku Ramen."
Naruto had been craving ramen for a long time, and he couldn't just let this opportunity to get it for free slip away. He was determined to get Kakashi-sensei to treat him to a meal before he left.
[Kakashi was helpless; he couldn't do anything about the narration. It seemed that running away was useless, and some secrets would eventually see the light of day again.]
Kakashi became serious and said, "We'll meet tomorrow morning. You'll be going through another mission called a survival exercise."
"That's awesome, I've been wanting to do this mission for ages."
"Naruto, don't be too happy yet," Uchiha Sora said. "I've heard of the Survival Exercise. Those who fail will be sent back to the Ninja Academy to continue their studies."
Kakashi said in a somber tone, "There are twenty-seven examinees this year, eighteen of whom will be sent back to the Ninja Academy to continue their studies."
Only nine people can graduate; it's a drill with a 66% elimination rate.
[Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura were shocked, while Sora seemed indifferent, as he was looking forward to reliving the wonderful school days.]
[I wonder if any of the next batch of female students will be pretty; I'm just thinking about it.]
"You useless bastard, can't you have any ambition? The Uchiha clan has no members like you who are so disgraceful!" Sasuke said angrily.
"Don't talk about yourself like that. We're actually pretty much the same. Talking about me is the same as talking about you."
Sasuke snorted inwardly, too lazy to bother with this lazy little brother. Although Sora could fight him to a draw, he only used underhanded tricks, which were not respectable.
"Haha, you finally admit it, huh? If we really fight, we're about the same. We'll use whatever means necessary to defeat the enemy, right, Kakashi-sensei?"
Although Kakashi didn't want to admit it, he still agreed with Ku's words: when at a disadvantage in a direct confrontation, assassination using other means was a good option.
"I don't want to go back to the Ninja Academy! I finally graduated, why do I have to take another graduation exam?" Naruto shouted.
[Naruto is about to embark on his ninja journey, and he never expected to have to undergo trials. Even Sasuke and Sakura are getting nervous.]
[Especially Sakura, in terms of strength, she's at the bottom of the seventh generation and would definitely be sent back to the Ninja Academy.]
Sakura was struck dumb and shouted, "I don't want to go back to school! I want to stay by Sasuke's side! School is full of little brats, who has time to play with them?"
[It seems Kakashi's plan succeeded; the entire Team 7 has fallen for it.]
[The survival exercise was just to teach the team to work together; Kakashi came with a mission from the Third Hokage.]
Kakashi chuckled darkly a few times and said, "If you believe the narration, you can go after lunch tomorrow morning, but don't blame me if you get eliminated."
After saying that, he disappeared with a teleportation spell. As long as he left faster than the narrator spoke, he would not hear the narrator's words.
The four people looked at each other in bewilderment.
"When are we going tomorrow? Do we still need to meet at the training ground at five o'clock?" Sakura was a little undecided.
"Hmph, whether it's true or not, I'll arrive on time. At worst, I'll wait a few hours. If I have to consider getting up a few hours earlier, I shouldn't be a ninja."
Sasuke said coldly.
“Sasuke is right, then I’ll get there early too. I want to fight alongside Sasuke,” Sakura said.
Naruto glanced at Sasuke and Sakura and said loudly, "I'm going to be Hokage, how could I fail at something so trivial?"
Looking at the three of them who were full of energy, Uchiha Sora was thinking about whether to have miso ramen or seafood ramen later, both of which were Ichiraku Ramen's signature dishes.
Chapter Four: Ninjas Should Learn to Endure
night.
Deep and quiet, in an apartment building in Konoha, Sasuke and Sora pushed open the door and entered.
This is their residence. The former Uchiha residence has been sealed off, and I heard there are new plans for the village.
The house is nearly 80 square meters, which is incomparable to the previous Uchiha mansion.
"Second brother, I'm going to sleep now. Don't wake me up tomorrow. I don't want to wake up at five o'clock and wait for Kakashi-sensei at the training ground."
Without waiting for Sasuke to speak, she quickly went into the room and closed the bedroom door.
Uchiha Sora lay on the bed, his consciousness focused on the system in his mind.
The Konoha Narration System enveloped the entire Konoha Village, slowly spreading to other areas of the Land of Fire.
There exists something like a system space in Uchiha Sora's mind.
Only his consciousness can enter; no other objects or living beings can enter, as if it were a fragment of his consciousness.
Place screens in the space that resemble virtual imaging.
From here, Uchiha Sora can view the current situation of anyone within the area covered by the system.
If Konoha installed surveillance cameras, this would be the central hub.
"Danzo".
The black screen dimmed, and a seated figure appeared on it.
One arm was bandaged and suspended in a sling, and one eye was also wrapped in bandages, making him look like a half-crippled old man.
His single eye shone with the sharpness of an eagle, and his expression was serious. At first glance, one could tell that he was a ruthless person.
The camera zooms out, and the figures of the Third Hokage, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane enter the screen.
A torch was lit in the corner of the wall, its flames flickering, and the shadows of the four people rose and fell with the changing flames.
Kong unconsciously revealed a cold smile.
Sasuke's desire to kill Itachi to avenge the Uchiha clan is understandable.
This was also the result Itachi wanted; Sora's understanding of the Uchiha clan was far less profound than Sasuke's.
After all, he was an outsider, always viewing things from an outsider's perspective, and could not understand the pain in Sasuke's heart.
Sora's attitude towards Itachi is complicated. Itachi killed the entire clan but not him, yet the parents of this body died because of Itachi.
Now that Itachi can't be found to explain things clearly, even if he and Sasuke team up, they are no match for him.
The four guys in the picture are in Konoha, and they should bear the main responsibility for the destruction of the Uchiha clan.
A deep voice could be heard coming from the dimly lit image.
"Hiruzen, the remnants of the Uchiha clan and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki should be placed in Root and trained into fighting machines."
Otherwise, if the Nine-Tails were to unleash its power or if Sasuke Uchiha were to become too strong, it would certainly become a scourge to Konoha.
[The Nine-Tails' power is too strong. Danzo would only feel at ease if he controlled it. Once he mastered the Nine-Tails' power, he could take over the Hokage position.]
"Danzo, you actually covet the Hokage position? With the two of us here, you should give up on that idea." Mitokado Homura stood up angrily, glaring at Danzo.
“Menyan is right. We should follow Hiruzen’s arrangements regarding the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and the Uchiha orphan,” Koharu said.
The two men knew Danzo's character well. Now that the three of them were advisors, with three generations above them, they got along fairly well.
Once Danzo becomes Hokage, the power held by both of them will likely vanish in an instant.
"Don't talk nonsense. I am the leader of Root and an advisor to Konoha. Everything I have done is for Konoha."
[Danzo was furious, never expecting the narrator to expose the secret he had been hiding deep in his heart.]
[During the First Shinobi World War, Danzo felt that if he had offered to draw away the pursuers just one minute earlier, he would probably be the Hokage now, instead of Hiruzen.]
The Third Hokage sighed and said, "Decades have passed, and you're still holding a grudge about what happened back then."
I will train Naruto and Sasuke to become qualified Konoha ninjas. The four of us are getting old, and I will choose the next Hokage from the younger generation.
Young people should be given more opportunities.
The Third Hokage was increasingly losing his strength. He wanted to support a ninja with shallow foundations to rise to power and continue to control Konoha through the next Hokage. His lust for power made him lose himself.
The secret room fell silent, an eerie atmosphere filled the air, and the Third Hokage's expression was incredibly complex.
[Danzo's eyes were filled with schadenfreude. Hiruzen's outwardly righteous demeanor masked such despicable and shameless behavior; it was truly an eye-opener.]
[Menyan and Xiaochun were extremely embarrassed. They had previously chosen to rebuke Danzo in order to protect their own power, but they never expected to be proven wrong so quickly.]
The third generation's expression quickly calmed down, as if nothing had happened.
"I believe this is the enemy deliberately targeting Konoha, trying to disrupt our internal peace in order to achieve some kind of goal."
The narrator's words cannot be trusted; a conspiracy lurks between the lines.
[The Third Hokage couldn't think of a way to deal with the narrator, so he could only attribute it to hostile forces trying to disrupt Konoha. In reality, the narrator wasn't just targeting Konoha, but was omnipresent.]
"Hiruzen is right. This is an attempt by hostile forces to undermine the unity of Konoha. You can't believe a word the narrator says," Danzo said righteously.
Men Yan said, "That's right, this is the conspiracy of the hostile forces."
"We must find the enemy, even if we have to dig three feet into the ground," Xiaochun chimed in.
[All four knew the narrator wouldn't lie; their successive statements were merely attempts to save face for themselves.]
"That concludes today's meeting. I will notify you of the next meeting separately."
The four of them left in the blink of an eye.
People still have a sense of shame.
[...]
In the early morning in Konoha, before the sun had risen, the sky was still dark.
"Knock knock knock." A series of urgent knocks came from the door.
Sasuke's cool voice rang out: "Uchiha Sora, get up and assemble."
[Uchiha Sora was asleep, and he still believed that Kakashi was just trying to scare him.]
Sasuke snorted and turned to leave. In the dimly lit Konoha Village, Naruto and Sakura, both yawning and drowsy, headed towards the training ground.
