Hokage: I really don't want to work hard!Kakashi

Naruto was so angry, and the joy brought by victory suddenly disappeared. Kakashi walked towards him while listening to Naruto's voice.

"Naruto, I have been watching your fight. With your ability, you should be able to keep that guy, but you let that guy run away."

"Didn't you let Xie escape too? Are you still talking about me here?"

Naruto suppressed his anger and retorted unceremoniously, but Kakashi still had a deadpan face that didn't care about anything.

"Because I've been observing you."

"You! Excuses! They are all excuses! Stop bluffing me! Am I still far behind? Then tell me, in what way am I far behind?"

Kakashi's expression changed and his eyes suddenly became serious. Naruto, who was about to yell, was startled by this sudden change and subconsciously closed his mouth.

Kakashi walked up to Naruto step by step and stared into Naruto's eyes very seriously.

"You are very bad at fighting with your life. As a ninja, if you are not good at fighting with your life, once you encounter an enemy stronger than yourself, you will have no chance of winning. Naruto, you are too conservative when fighting."

Kakashi dropped these words and walked past Naruto towards the direction of Sasuke and Sakura. Naruto stretched out his hand towards Kakashi's back and opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

Because Kakashi was right, Naruto did always have reservations when fighting.

First of all, he has never experienced a real life-and-death battle, not even the battle in Kawa no Kuni a few years ago. Kakashi and Izumi were both present at the time, and he knew that even if he lost, nothing would happen.

Secondly, he had always faced Kakashi. Over the years, Kakashi had almost always beaten him in sparring with him. In order to make himself suffer less, he unknowingly He developed a fighting style with the primary purpose of protecting himself, which resulted in insufficient attack power.

Now that Kakashi pointed it out, Naruto truly realized what his problem was.

After Kakuzu fled away, the black lines on his body gradually retracted into his body, and the other two scattered Yu Yu flew back to him. After confirming that the enemy was not chasing him, he breathed a long sigh of relief, just as he was about to sit down and rest for a while. At that moment, a cold light struck him, and he immediately threw away his hand and blocked it with black thread.

It was Scorpion who attacked Kakuzu. He chased Kakuzu all the way. Although he was flying, he finally caught up with Kakuzu after he stopped.

"Asshole! I'll kill you now! How dare you run away alone!"

Xie was so angry that he cursed loudly. Jiao Du had just suffered a big loss and was now on fire. Naturally, he would not admit his mistake.

"I lost two hearts. If I hadn't sacrificed one heart to escape at the last moment, I would be dead now. You, a guy, escaped unscathed. What else do you have to complain about?"

"Escape intact? Do you know that I lost a hundred puppets because of your sudden escape! What a waste! You can't even defeat a kid!"

"I remember that you and Deidara met that guy in the Country of Sawa a few years ago, right? Why didn't you kill him then? If you had killed him then, wouldn't there have been so many things?"

Kakuzu's words didn't sound very lethal, but they were particularly harsh in Scorpion's ears. All members of the Akatsuki organization knew that he and Deidara were defeated in that battle. Now Kakuzu said such words as a mockery. .

"Asshole! No matter what, you caused me to lose so many puppets! You must be responsible!"

"What are you talking about? You want to use my money to buy those junk again? I tell you, don't even think about it, just make your own money!"

"Hmph! Don't think that I will let you go if you say such a thing! Is that guy your subordinate? When you came here, you swore that there would be no problem, but it turned out that those two guys were waiting for us, and you bastard are here again You abandoned me and ran away during the battle, causing me to lose so many puppets. If you are not responsible, I will make you into a puppet!"

Kakuzu stared at Scorpion, his eyes bloodshot, but as Scorpion said, it was indeed his responsibility this time, and he would have to be responsible even if the trouble ended up with Pain.

"Hmph! I'm just about to find a new heart, so I'll help you get some money, but I won't give you any of the money I have!"

In the end, Kakudu compromised, but Scorpion did not hold on. After losing a hundred puppets, his combat effectiveness also dropped a lot, not to mention that it was not necessarily safe here. If they were caught up, they would not get anything good to eat.

Naruto and Kakashi returned to the place where they camped before, and Sasuke and Sakura had also come out of the woods.

Although they were far apart, they both saw the dark clouds in the direction of the battlefield, heavy rain pouring down, lightning flashing, and finally two beams of light colliding, which shattered both of their understanding of ninjas. They were all worried, but were relieved when they saw Naruto and Kakashi both back.

"Kakashi-sensei, Naruto, are you okay?"

Sakura couldn't hide her worry and immediately asked, and Kakashi casually raised his hand to say hello.

"Ah, I'm okay. Naruto was slightly injured, but it's just a superficial wound. Let's clean it up. We should go back and hand in the mission."

"Injured? Naruto, where are you injured?"

Sakura looked at Naruto, who stretched out his right hand. Although there was no blood, the large area of ​​burn-like scars was still a bit scary.

"It's not a big deal, I did it accidentally."

"No matter how it was done, I have bandages and potions here."

Sakura took out a small bottle of potion and a small roll of bandages from her bag and handed them to Naruto. Naruto took them and sat on a rock to apply the medicine on himself. Kakashi and Sakura went to pack the tent. Sasuke Then came to Naruto's side.

"Naruto, is your opponent strong?"

"Yeah, he should be considered a relatively strong guy."

Naruto gave a definite answer without thinking. Both Kakuzu and Scorpion were shadow-level existences. Such people would be strong wherever they were placed.

Sasuke was silent for a moment and said again: "What is their purpose?"

"I don't know, let the other party run away."

"When Sakura and I were in the woods just now, we felt like someone was watching us."

Naruto paused while tying the bandage, looked up at Sasuke, then pretended that nothing happened and continued tying the bandage.

"How do you know someone is watching you? Did you see it? Besides, it's okay if you have it. Aren't you okay? Don't think so much."

Sasuke fell silent and stopped talking. He clearly felt someone was there at that time. Naruto's pause just now also proved that Naruto knew something, but from the way Naruto spoke, he knew that Naruto would definitely not tell him. , so there is no point in asking again.
