Konoha: Naruto, trained by Aizen

"Kakashi has completed 42 S-rank missions, and he has completed each one perfectly. His strength has far surpassed that of an ordinary Jonin. Sasuke, aren't you studying the nature transformation of lightning chakra? Kakashi can definitely help you."

Naruto's lips curled into a smile.

With Minato as his intelligence hub, Naruto's understanding of Konoha was comparable to that of the Third Hokage.

"That's good." Hearing this, Sasuke felt relieved, and his expression relaxed.

Just then, Naruto and Sasuke heard a loud, powerful male voice coming from the end of the street.

"Well done, Li! I saw your dedication to training, I'm so touched! This is the passion of youth, this is the charm of youth!! Everyone, let's all do three handstands around Konoha today!!!"

Four figures appeared at the end of the street.

One of the taller men was wearing a strange green bodysuit, had a watermelon-shaped hairstyle, and walked upside down.

Three students followed behind, covering their faces and jogging slowly.

It was none other than Kai and his three students.

"Huh? It's Naruto! And Sasuke too, and a... girl?" Rock Lee spotted Naruto first, immediately abandoning Neji and Tenten to run towards him, leaving Guy behind, sobbing uncontrollably.

"On a sunny day, a young man, sweating profusely, runs towards his friend. This scene is the perfect interpretation of youth, the expression of friendship. I saw youth blossoming in this moment!!! This is youth!!!"

“Naruto, Sasuke, and this is…” Rock Lee approached Naruto, his gaze lingering on Sakura.

Under Naruto's influence, Rock Lee's aesthetic sense changed, so he didn't fall in love with Sakura like he did in the original story.

In his opinion, anyone standing next to Naruto must be a master.

That pink-haired girl must have some undeniable talent.

Naruto's companions are growing in number and becoming stronger.

I've decided I can't hold anyone back anymore!

Double the training volume today!

"Her name is Sakura Haruno, and she's a member of our team," Naruto introduced.

After the introductions, both parties gained a preliminary understanding.

Guy's team had also stepped forward. Guy finished speaking, gave a thumbs up, and flashed his white teeth: "Yoshi, Naruto boy, Sasuke boy, meeting in such romantic weather, I believe this is what youth is all about!"

Kai still remembers his battle with Naruto.

The bloodline limit left a deep impression on me; I can still recall the details of the battle back then.

After several years of development, Naruto's temperament has become more composed and reserved.

At first glance, he looks like a child who is completely helpless.

But Guy knew that Naruto's strength had reached a new level.

Over the years, Naruto and Sasuke also sought guidance from Guy on taijutsu.

To be precise, in Konoha, if Guy's taijutsu is second to none, then no one can claim to be first.

Under Kai's guidance, their physical skills also improved by leaps and bounds.

Therefore, they still have a lot of respect for Kai.

"Hmph." Just as the two sides were having a pleasant conversation, a cold snort from behind caught Naruto's attention.

He turned around, only to see Neji's signature byakugan and hostile expression.

Naruto remembered that a year ago, Guy suggested that Naruto have a match with Neji.

Neji was proud and arrogant. Although he lost to Rock Lee, his pride remained undiminished.

Kai also wanted to take this opportunity to dampen Neji's arrogance.

After all, pride is the biggest weakness of a ninja.

At that time, Neji looked down on Naruto, believing that the gentle Naruto had no taijutsu skills.

Then Naruto mercilessly beat him with a series of combos, leaving him bruised and battered, with several ribs broken.

Even now, Neji still remembers the smiling face Naruto had when he set his bones.

The thought alone sends chills down my spine.

"Neji, it's been a long time." Naruto gave Neji a gentle smile.

"Okay, long time no see." Neji quickly put away his composure and replied somewhat reluctantly.

He developed a psychological trauma towards Naruto after that humiliating defeat.

So he quietly slipped aside and became a attentive listener.

The conversation then turned to guiding the Jonin.

"Naruto, who is your Jonin instructor?" Rock Lee asked.

"Kakashi."

"Kakashi? That name sounds familiar." Rock Lee scratched his head in confusion, feeling like he'd heard it somewhere before.

"Kakashi, that guy is my nemesis." Guy sighed.

Lee Rock and the others then realized what was going on.

"I remember now, isn't Kakashi the nemesis that Guy-sensei always talks about, the rival who burns with youthful passion? Could he be similar in art style to Guy-sensei?"

"That's probably impossible. I can't imagine anyone else wearing the same style of clothes as Teacher Kai."

"Teacher Kai, who's stronger, you or Kakashi?" Rock Lee and Tenten asked chatteringly.

This question made Naruto's trio prick up their ears, eagerly awaiting Guy's answer.

"If we're talking about skill... he could win 51 out of 100 matches, but if we're talking about youth... my vibrant youth is something he can't match, I..."

"Kakashi is that strong?" Sasuke asked in surprise.

He was well aware of Guy's strength, which was outstanding even among Jonin.

According to Rock Lee, Guy's ultimate taijutsu technique could instantly kill a Jonin.

Kakashi may have a great reputation, but his first impression is not one of strength.

With Guy's explanation, Sasuke was filled with anticipation for Kakashi's instruction.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Naruto's group also made an excuse to part ways.

As they were about to part, Kai suddenly spoke up: "Young man, how about joining us for some high-energy training?"

"Training? That sounds pretty good." Sakura looked confused, but before she could react, Naruto and Sasuke pulled her away.

"No, we're going to have dinner together."

"That's such a shame, we'll just have to enjoy our youth to the fullest!" Kai roared at the three members, "Let's all jump around the Leaf Village Frog three times!"

Seeing Guy's strange art style, Sakura suddenly understood why Naruto refused Guy's invitation.

Chapter 55 Heartwarming Squad Daily Life

This is the first gathering of Naruto's team, and it won't be the last.

Naruto thought for a moment and then invited Sasuke and Sakura: "Would you like to come to my house? I'll cook you a big meal."

"I'm fine," Sasuke said coldly, arms crossed.

Rock Lee once visited Naruto's house and enjoyed the dishes Naruto personally cooked. His feedback afterwards was: "The food was divine."

This made Sasuke quite uncomfortable, since as Naruto's best friend, he had never been to Naruto's house.

So when Naruto made the suggestion, he pretended to be indifferent and agreed.

Sakura, standing to the side, naturally agreed wholeheartedly.

Sakura cheered excitedly, "Great! This time we'll go to Naruto's house, next time we'll sleep at Naruto's house, and the time after that we can..."

Girls in the Naruto world mature very early.

Naruto brought Sasuke and Sakura to his house.

The tiny room was quite a surprise to Sasuke, the young master.

However, though small, it has all the essential parts.

The house is fully equipped with all the necessary living facilities.

A bed, a simple kitchen, a table and chairs.

The room was tidy and spotless, not at all like a room for a boy.

Even Sasuke couldn't help but think in surprise, "Even the houses with servants weren't this clean before."

My mood suddenly dropped.

In the past, there were servants who cleaned the house, but now there are no servants, and there is no one alive in the house except myself.

Moreover, the house is large, so cleaning is also a big problem.

After his clan was wiped out, Sasuke was forced to learn everyday skills such as cooking and cleaning.

But no matter how he tried, his cooking skills were terrible.

In his opinion, cooking is the most difficult skill in the world to learn.

Naruto is indeed talented, but it's impossible that he'd also be a great cook, right?

Is he truly omnipotent?

Ignoring Sasuke's suspicious gaze, Naruto confidently brandished the kitchen knife, saying, "We don't have enough ingredients at home. Sasuke, go buy some meat. Sakura, could you please go buy some vegetables?"

"Okay, Naruto~~~ I'll be back soon. I'm really looking forward to your cooking, it's sure to be delicious~" Sakura felt an overwhelming sense of happiness.

If you told Ino, she would definitely scream with excitement.

After they finished buying groceries and returned home, Naruto was already wearing a white apron and greeted them with a gentle expression: "Thank you for your hard work."

He began to quickly prepare the ingredients.

Wash, cut, and marinate.

The skillful movements clearly indicate a veteran.
