A convenience store opened in Naruto

Sakura had already seen Sasuke lying on the ground, motionless, with cold hands and feet. Her mind was blank and she stood there in a daze.

She wanted to check on Sasuke, but she didn't dare leave due to Kakashi's order for her to guard the Dazna family.

If she doesn't leave, how can Ye Feng continue to watch the fun?

Ye Feng, who was just there to watch the show, immediately said, "Go if you want to. Kakashi has already entangled Zabuza, so there is no way Zabuza can come over."

"Bai Ye is already 'dead'. We have no external threats anymore. You can leave and go check on Sasuke without any worries."

"Go, take one last look at Sasuke's current appearance, you won't see it again."

Dazna also said: "Go, go and accompany him for the last time. Don't worry about me. Ye Feng is right. Now we have no external threats."

Ye Feng's words made Sakura's heart tremble, and Dazna's words made Sakura lose all her scruples and she ran towards Sasuke.

Sakura didn't even look at Naruto as she passed by him. Her mind was full of Sasuke.

"What are you doing standing in the middle of the road?" Looking at Naruto who was still standing there and really obeying Kakashi's words, Ye Feng waved at him and shouted, "Come here, now is not the time for you to be sad, the battle is not over yet."

Naruto was like a puppet, taking mechanical steps and came to Ye Feng. He imitated him and sat down on the ground.

Naruto said nothing, but Ye Feng wanted to say: "Ninjas are like this. From the moment you become a ninja, you should know that separation and death are the most common things for ninjas."

"You are like this even if one person dies. If you are on the battlefield in the future and your comrades die in droves, who will you cry for and who won't?"

"You're crying. That's just in time. The enemy is sending you to meet your comrades."

"I'm not crying!" Naruto said stubbornly.

Yes, he didn't want to cry at first, but the more he listened to Ye Feng talking, the more sad he felt like crying. What was going on?

"It's good that you didn't cry," Ye Feng threatened Naruto, his tone becoming more and more frightening, "You have to get used to this feeling. You have become a ninja, and you will inevitably go on missions in the future. Now that Sasuke is dead, when you go back, Team 7 will either disband on the spot or add a new member."

"No," Naruto muttered in a low voice, "I will never allow such a thing to happen. Whether Sasuke is here or not, Team 7 will always exist, and there will always be a place for him."

Naruto couldn't accept the fact that other people had joined and replaced Sasuke. In his heart, Team 7, which only consisted of Kakashi, him, Sakura and Sasuke, was the real Team 7.

Ye Feng didn't care what Naruto thought, and continued along his own bluffing line of thought: "Let's not talk about whether other people will join. Let's just say that after you disband, your dream will still be the same dream, and you will still fight for your dream."

"Sakura is different. Look at Sakura now. Sasuke's death was a huge blow to her."

Naruto looked up and saw Sakura holding Sasuke's body. Since her back was facing away from him, Naruto couldn't see the expression on Sakura's face. He could only tell that Sakura was crying by the way her shoulders were shaking.

"Hey, don't judge so arbitrarily. Let me make it clear first, in case you misunderstand, I don't know the secret techniques of the mountain tribe. I just guessed what you were thinking from the expression on your face," Ye Feng patched up and said, "Shoulder shrugs don't necessarily mean you're crying, it could also mean you're laughing."

Naruto glared at Ye Feng. It's already this time, and you still... As expected, he resigned after returning.

"Ok, ok," Ye Feng raised one hand in surrender, "I am crying, I am crying."

"Sakura was crying very sadly, with tears streaming down her face. From this angle, it seems very likely that Sakura's snot mixed with tears would drip onto Sasuke's face."

"Poof!" Naruto couldn't help but almost laughed out loud when he thought of Sasuke's face covered with snot. Fortunately, he reacted in time and realized that the current occasion was not suitable for laughing, so he covered his mouth tightly with his hands to prevent himself from laughing out loud.

"Hey hey!" Ye Feng pointed at Naruto in disbelief, as if he had discovered a new world, "Did you laugh just now? Did you laugh?"

Naruto covered his mouth desperately and shook his head frantically. He could not admit it, he absolutely could not admit it. If he admitted it, how could he survive in the village in the future?

Others are pointing fingers at him, so shouldn't he add another point?

"Look, this guy is the one who was gloating over his teammate's misfortune while his teammate's body was still cold."

"Yeah, yeah, what a piece of shit, ugh!"

"Pooh!"

Even if there were only him and Ye Feng here, he could pay for a bowl of ramen and ask Ye Feng to keep the secret for him, but the condemnation of his conscience was the most tormenting.

Ye Feng said with great sorrow: "Naruto, I'm not saying anything bad about you. I want you to get used to the death of your companions, but you're getting used to it too quickly, aren't you?"

"Even if you want to laugh, you should wait until Sasuke's body is buried before you laugh, right?"

"If you smile now, won't everyone know that you are trying to attract Sakura's attention?"

"After Sasuke's death, Sakura was heartbroken. You took advantage of the situation and made Sakura fall in love with someone else. Tell me, is this what you were thinking?"

"I, I, I..." Naruto was so angry that he slapped himself in the face.

When he felt the pain on his face, Naruto calmed down. He looked at Ye Feng and said firmly, "Resign. You must resign now. Sign the name when you get back. I didn't expect you to be such a person. Sasuke's body is still warm, and you are talking nonsense here."

"Who is talking nonsense? Who is talking nonsense?" Ye Feng pretended to be angry and continued to tease Naruto, "If you are not interested in Sakura, then I will take action?"

"Xiaoying is so beautiful, there must be many young men in the village pursuing her. When the time comes, I will be the matchmaker and pull the strings. Hey, won't the matchmaking money be in my hands?"

"You, you, you..." Naruto pointed at Ye Feng, trembling and unable to speak. He simply stopped talking. In a rage, he grabbed Ye Feng's neck and shook him madly, "I'll strangle you to death, I'll strangle you to death!"

Ye Feng was not to be outdone. He stretched out two fingers with his other empty hand, and with a "whoosh" sound, inserted them directly into Naruto's nostrils. He lifted them up with all his strength, making Naruto's arms unable to move.

……

Sakura didn't know how she came to Sasuke. Looking at Sasuke's peaceful face, Sakura knelt on the ground and stroked Sasuke's forehead. The expression on her face was a gentleness that Naruto had never seen before.

"It's so cold, isn't this an illusion anymore?"

Sakura wished so much that what she saw was just an illusion. They were still in the training ground in the village, playing the bell-grabbing game with Kakashi.

That way, nothing would happen to Sasuke.

"I always scored 100 points in the ninja school exams. I also remembered all of the more than 100 ninja tips and always wrote down the answers with great pride."

"There was a test one day, and this question came up: Please answer the 25th item of the Ninja Tips. Just like usual, I wrote down the answer."

As she spoke, Sakura could no longer control her emotions, tears flowed down her cheeks, and she sobbed, "A ninja must not show his emotions under any circumstances. The mission is the first priority. Remember, you must not cry at any time!"

"But...but, Sasuke..."

Sakura lay on Sasuke and cried loudly. The battle between Kakashi and Zabuza came to an end.

Amid the 'ping pong' sound of weapons colliding, the two men temporarily distanced themselves from each other. Zabuza was panting heavily, his left hand hanging down weakly, with two kunai still stuck in his arms.

His left hand was temporarily disabled and could not be used. It was very difficult for him to hold the beheading sword with only one hand.

"Why, why can't I keep up with his speed? Damn it!"

It was too fast, everything happened too fast, Kakashi seemed like a different person. In the fight with Kakashi, he was defeated in just a few moves.

Looking at Zabuza rushing towards him, Kakashi shook his head. It was not that he had changed, but that Zabuza's mind was confused and he could no longer keep up with the pace of the battle.

Facing Zabuza who was rushing towards him, Kakashi didn't even move his feet. He just threw a backhand punch and made Zabuza retreat a few steps.

"Damn it!" Zabuza cursed inwardly, unwilling to give up, and rushed towards Kakashi with his sword again.

This time Kakashi moved, and his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot. Zabuza's attack missed, and the beheading sword fell heavily on the bridge.

Under normal circumstances, he would never make such a mistake. The moment he discovered that Kakashi was missing, he would change the trajectory of the beheading sword and chop it to other places where Kakashi might appear.

Kakashi appeared again. He had come behind Zabuza, pinching the back of Zabuza's neck with one hand and holding a kunai with the other hand: "You can't defeat me now. Farewell, Demon Zabuza!"

As he spoke, the kunai was about to be thrust down.

Zabuza did not sit there and wait for death. He changed the way he held the sword, holding the handle in reverse, and swung the blade towards his back.

Kakashi's eyes narrowed, and he stabbed Zabuza's right arm with the kunai that was originally intended to stab Zabuza's back.

He had to change his tactics. If he didn't, he would die, and Zabuza would probably die as well. The weight of the beheading sword was there. If the ninja swung it with all his strength, it would not be a problem to chop several people lined up in half.

"Puchi!" The kunai pierced Zabuza's right arm. The injured arm made Zabuza unable to hold the hilt of the knife, and he involuntarily let go of his hand.

The beheading sword fell to the ground and slid for several meters due to inertia until it hit the guardrail of the bridge and stopped.

Kakashi also flew back and dodged to the side, whispering: "Now you can't use your hands, and you can't make hand seals. I told you, your future is only death!"

Just as Zabuza was about to fight to the death, a voice was heard.

"Oh, oh, the battle is so fierce."

"Thump thump" the sound of the cane hitting the ground, the man behind the scenes, Zabuza's employer, the culprit who brought disaster to the Land of Waves, Cardo, who has many names, appeared.

He stood in front of a group of his men, his hands on his cane, his left wrist still bandaged, he had a mustache, a lion head on his head, small brown sunglasses, and a suit-like outfit. Although he was not tall, he gave people a feeling of strong aura.

"Kado, why are you here? And what's going on with your subordinates?" Zabuza frowned and asked unhappily.

This was inconsistent with their plan. According to the plan, Cardo would not appear here, especially with so many subordinates. At a glance, there were at least twenty or thirty people.

"Haha!" Cardo laughed and said smugly: "The battle plan has changed a little. I'm sorry, Zabuza, please die here."

Look, how polite you are, you even know to say "please". In that case, when you die later, I will torture you a little longer so that you can live a little longer, Ye Feng thought with a smile.

Seeing that the real boss had come out, Ye Feng stopped fighting with Naruto, mobilized the chakra in his body, moved his hands and feet, and made final preparations.

Cardo was still proudly talking about his plan. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with his plan. The smile on his face never stopped while he was talking.

"It would cost a fortune to hire a regular ninja, so I hired a runaway ninja like you."

"Besides, if you ninjas kill each other, it will save me money and time."

"Really? You're still talking about some Kirigakure demon? That's hilarious."

"As far as I'm concerned, you're just a cute kid."

"Hahaha..." All his men were very supportive of him. Even if what he said was not funny, they still laughed non-stop as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world.

"Kakashi, I'm sorry, our fight ends here," Zabuza said to Kakashi without turning his head, looking at the group of people who were laughing at him, "Since I have no reason to kill Dazna, there is naturally no reason for me to continue fighting with you."

Kakashi was about to nod his agreement when Ye Feng, who had already stretched his arms and legs, spoke up: "Since you all don't want to fight anymore, it's my turn."
