Dark Naruto's acting life

The beds in Konoha Hospital are very tight at this time, and the wounded and sick fill every aisle of the corridor.

The actions of Orochimaru and the Sand Village caught Konoha off guard.

Although the village had an emergency plan, Konoha's ninjas began evacuating ordinary people to shelters shortly after Orochimaru and his men began their action.

But that is only a temporary solution after the sheep have been lost.

The sudden enemy had already caused considerable casualties to the people of Konoha before the emergency plan was activated.

According to subsequent statistics, the number of ordinary people affected by this incident was about 1,500.

Of the 1,500 people, 400 died on the spot and the other 1,100 were injured to varying degrees.

As for the lost property, the statistics have not been completed yet, but a rough estimate is that it should be around 100 million taels.

Such heavy casualties and losses cast a shadow of gloom over everyone in Konoha.

This dark cloud is called anger, resentment and hatred.

Most people in Konoha didn't know who had brought such a disaster upon them.

They are waiting for an explanation from the top.

Until the top management gives everyone a satisfactory explanation, this dark cloud will never disappear, but will only grow more and more intense. If it is not resolved, it will probably cause a huge wave within Konoha.

Not to mention the village's top leaders, even ordinary ninjas with a keen sense of smell have realized the seriousness of the problem.

Uchiha Sasuke is one of them.

He stayed in the hospital for a few days and heard a lot of useful information. He analyzed it and came to some very interesting conclusion.

But he didn't care about that.

His mind is now full of thoughts on how to become stronger.

Tonight he was unable to fall asleep again because of his chaotic thoughts.

He was thinking back on his disastrous failure in the Chunin Exams.

Why did I lose?

I am obviously a genius of the Uchiha clan, so why can't I even defeat a guy with thick eyebrows?

Why are Gaara, Neji, Rock Lee, Uzumaki Naruto and others who don't have the Sharingan stronger than him?

Why am I so weak?

These thoughts continued to erode his mind.

Finally, he could no longer tolerate his own weakness.

He threw back the quilt, got up from the bed, and then put on the backpack he had prepared long ago.

He opened the door, left the clan territory, and headed towards the exit of Konoha Village.

Tonight, Sasuke decided to leave this place.

He was going to seek strength.

He is going to find Orochimaru who promised to make him stronger!

Sasuke had a smooth journey, but when passing through Konoha Park, a familiar figure blocked Sasuke's way.

Sasuke stopped and looked at the person in front of him and asked, "Why are you here?"

Haruno Sakura felt uneasy when Sasuke stared at her.

Her eyes avoided involuntarily.

Sasuke had a keen ability of observation, he immediately realized that something was wrong and guessed one possibility - he was being followed and monitored.

Sasuke frowned and asked, "Sakura, how dare you spy on me?"

"I..." Sakura hesitated, and it was obvious that Sasuke had guessed right.

Sasuke: "Tell me! Why are you spying on me?!"

"No! Sasuke, don't misunderstand me!" Seeing Sasuke getting angry, Sakura hurriedly began to explain, "The reason I did this is because when I was taking care of you in the hospital, I found that something was wrong with your condition, and I was a little worried about you, so... Sasuke, I swear I'm really worried about you, and I definitely don't mean anything else!"

Sasuke was silent after hearing this. After a moment, he slowly spoke: "Sakura..."

call!

Accompanied by a sound of breaking wind, Sasuke rushed in front of Sakura, breaking through the distance of several meters in the blink of an eye.

Pfft!

Sasuke punched Sakura hard in the stomach.

Sakura felt pain, her eyes rolled back and she fainted on the ground.

In the last moment before she lost consciousness, Sakura heard Sasuke's last words in her ears.

"Sakura...you're really an eyesore!"

……

"This is what happened. Uchiha Sasuke attacked the village guards last night and then left the village. This behavior did not seem to be controlled by an illusion, so it was classified as... a defection."

In the Hokage's office, Kakashi sat in front of the Hokage's desk and told the people in front of him about a suspected ninja defection that happened last night.

A bearded man put out the cigarette in his mouth and asked, "We have heard the matter clearly. What do you want us to do?"

Kakashi: "I need a few of you to investigate the truth of this incident and bring Sasuke back to the village for further investigation. Sarutobi Asuma and his subordinates, Team 10, and the ninjas responsible for tracking perception, are you willing to accept this mission?"

"Class 10 accepts this mission." The bearded man said without thinking.

The man with the beard is Asuma Sarutobi, the teacher in charge of Team 10. What he means naturally refers to all the members of Team 10.

As for the so-called perceptive ninja, he also expressed his wish at the same time: "Uzumaki Naruto accepts the mission."

Kakashi nodded and said, "In that case, you should set off immediately. Be careful on this trip. I have met Orochimaru once during the Chunin Exams. He seemed to be very interested in Sasuke, so he is probably the one behind this incident. You may encounter him. If it is impossible, I allow you to give up the mission."

"Understood." Everyone responded in unison and immediately left the Hokage's office.

Several people hurried all the way to the main exit of Konoha Village.

This took some time, so Ino from Team 10 couldn't help but start chatting with Uzumaki Naruto.

Ino: "I never thought that Kakashi-sensei would become the acting Hokage, and I never thought that Sasuke would defect from the village for no reason."

Naruto: "Kakashi-sensei's appointment as acting Hokage is the result of a joint decision by several big families. The village is in urgent need of a leader. Looking at the entire Konoha, there are only a handful of people who can take on this position. Kakashi-sensei is one of them, and there is nothing wrong with choosing him. As for Sasuke..."

Naruto was about to say something, but Ino pulled his sleeve and said, "Is that Sakura blocking the road ahead?"

"Yeah." Naruto nodded. He had seen Sakura even longer ago, and he could guess what she was here for.

The bearded man, Asuma Sarutobi, the teacher in charge of Team 10, also had a general understanding of the mission objectives...that is, he also understood Uchiha Sasuke's interpersonal relationships.

The girl in front of him was called Haruno Sakura. She was in the same class as Sasuke and Naruto, and she seemed to have a crush on Sasuke.

Asuma could guess roughly why she appeared here to stop everyone.

Although the situation was urgent, he was considerate enough not to scold Sakura for getting in the way. Instead, he took Shikamaru and Chouji to a nearby gate to handle formalities, leaving the space for a few young people.

As Sakura's best friend, Ino easily noticed that something was wrong with Sakura. She stepped forward and held Sakura's hand: "Sakura, what's wrong with you?"

Sakura ignored Ino, she broke free from Ino's hand and walked over to Naruto.

The two looked at each other.

The girl's eyes were red and swollen, with clear tear marks on her face. All signs indicated that Sakura had cried more than once in a short period of time.

"Naruto, please help me bring Sasuke back. This is my lifelong request, please help me bring Sasuke back."

As she spoke, tears as big as beans kept rolling down Sakura's eyes. No one who saw it would refuse her request.

Naruto did not refuse, he said in a deep voice: "I will try my best."

"Try your best? You said try your best?"

This wasn't the answer Sakura wanted.

The girl stopped crying and then stared at Naruto with her eyes.

Bringing Sasuke back is her only obsession now. She placed all her hopes on Uzumaki Naruto. This was her greatest wish in her life, but Uzumaki Naruto's answer was just to try his best.

She could feel that her wishes were being half-heartedly addressed.

She was angry!

"Uzumaki Naruto! I don't want to try my best! I want certainty! Sasuke is also your companion, isn't he? Now he has gone astray, you have to help him! You are responsible for bringing him back!"

Sakura stared at Naruto as she spoke, as if she was possessed by a demon.

Seeing this, Ino hurried forward to comfort Sakura, but before he could get close, Sakura turned around and glared at Ino.

"Yamanaka Ino, you have nothing to do here! Get out of the way!"
