Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

Uchiha Sasuke's words chilled the entire hall. Shikamaru, who was a little lazy at first, looked at Uchiha Sasuke with some surprise.

Sasuke's performance tonight made him feel that his opinion of Sasuke over the years had completely failed.

This orphan of the Uchiha clan, whether in terms of intelligence or execution, is much more terrifying than imagined. No, there is still something wrong.

Shikamaru didn't believe he could be so wrong. But Uchiha Sasuke's performance really surprised him. So, there was only one possibility.

Shikamaru's eyes lit up slightly. Someone was helping him. Yes, someone was secretly helping Uchiha Sasuke. Helped him plan this party.

As the brain of the Twelve, Shikamaru sees something completely different from what these kids see.

In his opinion, from a political point of view, tonight's banquet brought together the most iconic wealthy families of Konoha, such as Uchiha, Nara, Yamanaka, Akimichi, Hyuga, Inuzuka, etc.

Moreover, no matter whether it is himself or Choji, it is very likely that he will take over the position of clan leader in the future. Hinata is the little princess of the Hyuga family. When she comes to attend the banquet, she has the last session's first Hyuga Ningri as her bodyguard.

In addition, there is that yellow-haired boy Naruto. Others may not know, but Shikamaru knows very well. That boy is Konoha's Jinchuriki, a strategic weapon for the entire village.

In this way, it is not an exaggeration to say that the future of Konoha gathers in this hall.

The future of Konoha revolves around the orphan of the Uchiha clan. Shikamaru could even imagine that many people in Konoha would not be able to sleep tonight.

But Shikamaru actually didn't understand why his father let him come. Because according to family tradition, they should stand on the side of the Hokage.

And the orphan of Uchiha...theoretically, he is destined to have no chance of becoming Hokage. Unless...

Shikamaru shook his head, throwing away those dangerous and complicated thoughts. It was too troublesome and too dangerous. He couldn't bear the thought. He should eat something first. Apart from anything else, Uchiha Sasuke had spent a lot of money tonight.

We ordered all kinds of luxurious and expensive meals from the hotel in Konoha. Didn't you see Naruto and Choji were eating their meals without even having time to talk?

As for Ino and Sakura, they were competing for the position beside Sasuke. By the way, Sakura, this girl was actually the only exception at the scene. She was the only pure civilian ninja. An ordinary ninja with no bloodline and no secret skills.

But she is not ordinary. Because Shikamaru knows that Sakura's academic performance is very good. Even if he is serious, he may not be able to surpass her.

So, Sakura is actually a very rare talent, a talent in internal affairs.

No, no, I can't let my imagination run wild. Shikamaru quickly took a large piece of beef from Choji's plate and stuffed it into his mouth, completely ignoring the murderous look from Choji next to him.

At the banquet, a group of children were eating, some were jealous, and the atmosphere was quite lively. However, Uchiha Sasuke was a little distracted.

He was wondering what kind of ninjutsu Kamikawa Aoba would teach him.

"Hey Sasuke, what are you thinking about? Eat something, this moon fish is really delicious. If you don't eat it, I will eat it all."

Naruto's loud voice woke Sasuke up. Seeing that there was little food left, he finally joined the crowd to grab food.

A bunch of teenagers were eating their best. Although Sasuke prepared a lot, they still ate it all.

Fortunately, Shikamaru's family asked them to bring a lot of snacks, so the boys and girls could eat snacks and chat together.

Sasuke also noticed that the petite princess of the Hyuga family had an amazing appetite. The large amount of food near her basically went into her stomach silently.

And the little girl was showing off the food while secretly looking at Naruto.

"Tsk, there are girls who like a guy like Naruto." Sasuke complained in his mind, but he took note of this detail in his heart.

That's right, this is also one of Qingye's conditions. He wants him to observe the hobbies and relationships of his classmates while eating.

Oh, and there is also Nara Shikamaru. This was specifically instructed by Aoba Jonin, so if you have any questions, you can ask him.

The Nara family has been Konoha's staff for generations, and the head of the family usually also serves as the leader of the jonin squad. It can be said that he is in a high position of power.

But why does Shikamaru not seem so powerful? He is just a lazy guy with no motivation.

Sasuke complained in his mind while forcing himself to remember these things.

Late at night, the group of children finally had to go home.

Sasuke escorted his classmates out the door one by one. But when it was Hinata Hyuga's turn, he just called out.

"Naruto, please send Hinata off for me, and then come back and help me clean up."

Then, he said to Hinata, whose face was red and about to faint.

"I apologize for the poor reception." Hyuga Neji looked at Sasuke in surprise. The other party performed a very formal etiquette towards Hinata. It was like a formal exchange between the two families.

Unfortunately, Miss Hinata didn't feel it at all. She just blushed and glanced at Naruto who was not far away.

"This young lady is beyond help." This is what Neji said most directly.

"Hey, Sasuke, you can send Hinata off. But why should I help you clean up? Everyone has obviously left."

"Because it affects whether I should bring two lunches or one lunch in the future."

"Sasuke-kun, I can stay and help you clean up." Sakura raised her hand weakly, but Sasuke responded seriously.

"No, you should go home now. It's getting late, and your parents should still be waiting for you. With all due respect, you should cherish this waiting time."

"Ah." Sakura didn't know what to feel for a moment.

"Sasuke is so gentle and kind. Why must God be so cruel to him?" Seeing Sakura who had fallen into a certain special state, Sasuke felt helpless.

He couldn't help but think of the conversation he had with Kamikawa Aoba that day.

"You are the last Uchiha. If you die, the Uchiha will be left with nothing. Even if you become the strongest ninja, you alone cannot support a clan."

So, what does this mean? I'm going to have lots and lots of kids? With Sakura? But she doesn't look like she's going to be very fertile.

I don't know if the car in Sasuke's mind is about to go into space. Haruno Sakura finally left with a crazy look on her face.

Then, Naruto returned to Sasuke's living room with a reluctant look on his face.

"What? There's so much garbage and so many dishes. How long will it take us to clean up?"

Seeing Naruto complaining before he even started working, Sasuke also looked helpless.

"Okay, as long as you help me clean up these. You can take half of the remaining drinks and snacks."

"Ah!!! Sasuke, let's start right now!!"

"..."
