Starting from Naruto: The Invincible Road of the Slacking Girl

early morning.

The morning mist had not yet dissipated, and the forest outside Konoha Village was shrouded in a haze.

Kakashi stood at the front of the team, his silver hair fluttering gently in the breeze.

The only exposed right eye glanced at the team members behind him. He had already explained the situation of Sasuke's defection.

"Are you all ready?" His voice was calm but carried unquestionable authority.

Naruto clenched his fists, his blue eyes burning with determination: "Of course! I must bring Sasuke back!"

Shikamaru put his hands in his pockets, looking lazy but with sharp eyes: "What a trouble..."

Kiba squatted on the ground, Akamaru rubbing his legs, he grinned: "Let those Sound Ninja taste our power!"

Neji's Byakugan was already open, and the flow of chakra around him was clearly visible in his eyes: "We must be careful."

Choji chewed potato chips with a rare serious expression: "For my friends... I won't back down."

Kakashi nodded: "Remember, our goal is to bring Sasuke back, don't waste time in fighting, let's go!"

Six figures quickly shuttled through the forest in the morning light. The dew on the leaves was shaken off by their movements, sparkling in the sunlight.

"Kakashi-sensei," Naruto quickened his pace and kept pace with Kakashi, "Will Sasuke...really come back with us?"

Kakashi looked straight ahead, "It's up to you, Naruto. You're his closest friend."

Naruto bit his lip, and the image of Sasuke's departing back and the words "I want to go my own way" appeared in his mind.

He clenched his fists even tighter: "I will make him understand!"

Some time passed.

Ningji suddenly raised his hand to signal to stop: "There is a chakra reaction ahead! Five people!"

Almost at the same moment, five figures jumped down from the treetops and blocked their way.

Leading the group was Kimimaro, who had pale skin and green eyeshadow.

He stared at Kakashi coldly, "That is the end, ninjas of Konoha."

"It seems that Orochimaru thinks highly of Sasuke." Kakashi narrowed his single eye.

Tayuya played with the flute in his hand and laughed contemptuously: "You guys are the only ones who want to win back Lord Sasuke? That's ridiculous."

Jirobo crossed his arms and said, "It would be better to get rid of you here to save trouble."

Sakon Ukon: “We can have some fun this time.”

Kidomaru stuck out his long tongue: "Hehe, I love hunting geniuses the most, especially that white-eyed boy."

Kakashi made a quick decision: "According to the plan, I will hold them back while you look for a chance to break through!"

"You wish!" Kimimaro launched an attack instantly, bone spurs extended from his arm and went straight for Kakashi.

Kakashi quickly formed hand seals, his Sharingan spinning rapidly: "Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall!"

A wall of earth rose from the ground, blocking Kimimaro's attack.

"Hurry up and run!" Kakashi shouted, fighting with Kimimaro.

Naruto and others seized the opportunity and broke through from the side.

Tayouya immediately blew the flute, and the strange sound waves formed a substantial attack in the air.

"Illusion·Magic Flute·Dream Sound Lock!"

Shikamaru was quick: "Shadow imitation technique!"

His shadow extended quickly, controlling Tayuya's movements before her sound waves could reach her.

"Now is the time!" Ya rode on Akamaru,

"Ya Tong Ya!" Two whirlwind-like attacks broke up the Sound Ninja's formation.

Neji's Byakugan locked onto Kidomaru: "Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"

The dense palm strikes cut off all the spider-like chakra threads.

Choji swallowed the first of the three colored pills: "Partial Multiplication Technique!"

His fist instantly grew larger and he punched Jirobo away.

Naruto didn't want to fight.

He saw the opportunity and passed through the gap in the battlefield: "Sasuke, wait for me!"

Sakon and Ukon tried to intercept, but were entangled by the shadow clone that suddenly appeared.

Naruto has already rushed out of the encirclement and is rushing towards the direction where Sasuke left.

The forest was rapidly retreating around Naruto, his heart beating like a drum.

"Sasuke...why do you have to take this path..." Naruto gritted his teeth, and countless images of fighting alongside Sasuke flashed through his mind.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front.

Long black hair, white kimono, it's Sasuke!

He stood in front of the waterfall in the Valley of the End, his back facing Naruto.

"Sasuke!" Naruto yelled, his voice echoing through the canyon.

Sasuke turned slowly.

No emotion could be seen in his scarlet Sharingan: "You are the last one... You actually followed me here."

Naruto stopped, his chest heaving violently: "Come back with me! Orochimaru just wants your body!"

"It doesn't matter." Sasuke sneered, "He can give me strength, that's enough."

"Revenge is not everything! Our bond..." Naruto clenched his fists.

Sasuke's eyes became even colder: "Bonds only make people weak. I have cut them all off."

At this moment, Sasuke's gaze suddenly passed Naruto and fell on the stone statue in the Valley of the End.

His pupils suddenly contracted and an expression of shock appeared on his face for the first time.

"This...this is..."

Naruto looked back following his gaze and also opened his eyes wide in surprise.

On both sides of the waterfall in the Valley of the End, huge stone statues of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha stand facing each other.

On the rock wall above the two stone statues, a third stone statue suddenly appeared!

It was the image of a woman with her arms folded across her chest.

A stone statue looking down at Hashirama and Madara from a high position.

The most shocking thing is the pair of eyes - although they are stone carvings, they convey a lifelike aura of contempt for all living beings.

"Wow! Isn't this Sister Yuxi?!" Naruto jumped up excitedly and shouted, pointing at the stone statue.

Sasuke's face turned pale: "Yuxi... Yuxi, the god of physical skills? That woman who is fishing... is she the legendary Yuxi?"

His mind flashed back to that day.

The scene where he provoked the woman with golden eyes by the river and was easily defeated.

"You also know Sister Yuxi? She treated me to ramen last night!" Naruto turned to Sasuke in surprise.

The corner of Sasuke's mouth twitched.

Yu Xi on the stone statue seemed to be laughing at his ignorance.

Sasuke looked up at the statue, mixed emotions swirling within him.

Sasuke: "Since you have followed me here, let your strength speak for itself."

Lightning gathered in his hands, and the cries of thousands of birds echoed through the canyon.

Naruto took a deep breath, the Nine-Tails' chakra boiling in his body: "If this is the only way... then I will definitely defeat you and take you home!"

The two men rushed towards each other at the same time, and the fateful duel began again.

Sasuke's Chidori and Naruto's Rasengan collided in the air, bursting into dazzling light.

The energy shock wave instantly evaporated the surrounding water mist, and the three stone statues of the Valley of the End appeared particularly solemn in the light of the explosion.

High in the sky, two people were watching this place.

It was Yuxi and Kaguya Otsutsuki.
