[Ming Zuo] Exchange of positions

10

Open the door and say, "I'm back."

Still like that, no one responded.

Are you not at home...

Sasuke glanced at the Chunin clothes in his hand, his black eyes were a little dim.

Originally, I wanted to tell my brother that I had become a Chunin.Really, don't you care at all?

Anyway, I don't care!

Biting his lip, he threw the Chunin clothes to the entrance, and went out the door without looking back.

It was a moonlit night, and the moonlight was fine.The Nanhechuan River was shimmering with waves, as if it had been coated with a layer of silver like fish scales.

Sasuke sat by Minami Hechuan alone, holding a small stone in his hand.

The sound of 'dong' is the sound of stones falling into the river, which is very clear in this silent night.

I don't care!

Looking at the circles of ripples, Sasuke was a little lost in thought.

The ripples spread out round and round, and he suddenly remembered that when his parents died, he was also sitting here, and then jumped into this lake.The lake water desperately squeezed against his body, making him feel suffocated.

Suddenly, the series of slight footsteps in the night brought him back to his senses.Turning back reflexively, the bright lights of Konoha in the distance made him squint his eyes.

He saw a person walking quietly on the road beside the Nanhechuan River, and the lights of Konoha elongated the shadow behind that person, making him look thinner and smaller.

That person had obviously seen him too, and their eyes met each other.

Naruto……?

This realization surprised him a little.What is he doing here alone so late?When that person saw him, the awkward look on his face made him subconsciously make a disgusted expression.Perhaps seeing this expression, Naruto snorted coldly and turned his face away, then put his hand in his pocket, and walked to the other side.

"Tch." With a soft snort, Sasuke picked up a stone and continued to throw it into the river.

"Move over there a little bit, I say!"

Suddenly a voice behind him almost made him fall into the river.Immediately afterwards, the owner of the voice forced him aside regardless of his wishes.

"Why did you come here all of a sudden?" Sasuke gritted his teeth, a little out of breath.

"Didn't I see that you are too lonely by yourself, why don't you come here to accompany you!" The man said so confidently that Sasuke rolled his eyes directly.

"Aren't you ashamed to say this! And you are lonely." Sasuke retorted with a sneer.

"Well, aren't they all the same?" Naruto smirked and scratched his head.

So, where is the same!I am not lonely!Clenching his fist, and finally loosening it slowly, Sasuke curled his lips, but didn't say anything.

Then there was silence, they just sat here in silence, no one spoke.Even so, the feeling of suffocation suddenly disappeared at that moment, just like he surfaced from the water that day.

"Hey, Sasuke. I didn't seem to congratulate you for passing the Chunin exam during the day, so I said. Although I am very unconvinced, I still want to congratulate you for becoming a Chunin." After a long time, the blond fool next to him suddenly said this, and he Looking at the night sky, his words were a little awkward, but there was a sincere smile on his face.

"Tsk." His heart seemed to be stung by something, and he suddenly panicked, but in the end he just uttered a simple monosyllable, as if saying 'I have read it'.

Normally, Naruto would have exploded because of this attitude, but today he didn't say anything, just smiled and said, "To be honest, really, I really want to become a Chunin with Sasuke."

"It's enough to try harder next time, don't act like there is no next exam, idiot!" Sasuke said with a frown.

Although the words of the person next to him spoke impatiently, they could hear the awkward comfort in them.Naruto smiled relievedly, "That's right, there will be another time."

"However, next time, I won't let you walk in front of me again!" Naruto said with full of vindictiveness like a war invitation.

"Hmph, catch up with me and say this again, the tail of the crane." Sasuke lowered his eyes, showing a slightly helpless smile.

"Well~ it's late, see you on the mission tomorrow." Stretching and stretching his body, Naruto stood up with a smile, and waved to Sasuke.

When he turned around to leave, Sasuke's words made him stop in place.

"Naruto, I probably won't see you for tomorrow's mission."

"Why?!" Turning around suddenly, Naruto looked at Sasuke in surprise.

"I'm going to Anbe." Sasuke's eyes were full of seriousness.

"Why do you want to go to Anbu? Isn't it good to stay in the seventh class?"

"The seventh class is very good, but I want to become stronger. The tasks that the seventh class has received so far are too weak, and that kind of growth is too slow for me. Only Anbu, the kind full of life and death Fighting makes me stronger."

For a moment, Naruto's thoughts became a little confused, his figure swayed, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he grabbed Sasuke's shoulder and said with a little excitement, "Hey, I'll go to Anbe with you too?"

Sasuke frowned and said, "No."

"Why? Why can you do it, but I can't?" Naruto's voice suddenly became a little hysterical.

Although he didn't understand why Naruto became like this, Sasuke explained patiently: "Because you are too weak, and you are not suitable for Anbu."

"Nonsense! I'm going to ask Grandpa III!" Naruto took a step back and ran towards Hokage's office with red eyes shining faintly.

How strange.Sasuke frowned, he suddenly had a very strange feeling, as if something was about to happen.

--"You are too weak……"

——"Hey, Naruto, do you know that some things can't be obtained by hard work. The recognition you want is just longing for the fetters and no longer being alone. You who stay in Konoha are too weak, you still Before you get the approval of the person you want most, that person will leave you because of your weakness."

The wind scraped his face like a knife, and the voices of Sasuke and that man kept echoing in his heart, Naruto gritted his teeth, and the speed of his feet accelerated.

I do not believe it!I will not believe it! ! !

Maybe it was because it was not too late, and there were lights in Hokage's office, so Naruto went in directly through the window of the office.

Seeing Naruto's sudden appearance, Sandaime seemed a little surprised.Knowing that this child often plays cards unreasonably, the third generation just smiled and asked: "Naruto, what do you want me to do at such a late hour?"

"Grandpa III, I want to go to Anbe!"

This sentence directly stunned the third generation, his eyes flashed, and he still said gently: "Naruto, you should do more tasks in the Kakashi class, and wait until you pass the Chunin exam next time before talking about this kind of thing." Bar."

"But, but..." Naruto murmured, but couldn't say anything.

"It's so late, let's go back early and rest, there are still tasks tomorrow."

"No! If the third generation doesn't agree to me, I won't go back!" Naruto stuck his neck and said stubbornly, "Speaking of which! Obviously I also won the competition, why can't I be promoted to Chunin? Obviously Ning Neji is very strong, so I should be very strong after defeating Neji!"

Unexpectedly, Naruto would suddenly get involved here, and the third generation's hand holding the pipe froze for a moment.

——"Sarutobi, please cancel Naruto Uzumaki's name from the Chunin list this time."

——"Why? That kid is obviously very good in the competition."

——"The reason should be very clear to you. That child is Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. I heard that the Nine-Tails Chakra in his body was leaked during this competition. For the sake of the village, it is best to limit his range of activities."

——“…”

——"Sarutobi, we compromised on Danzo last time. In exchange, you have to listen to our opinions this time, Jinjuriki!"

--"I see!"

"...Is it because I am Jinchuriki of Kyuubi?" Naruto lowered his head and clenched his hands tightly.

The third generation was shocked, but his face was still soothing and gentle: "Naruto, this decision is only based on your overall level in the competition, so it has nothing to do with other things."

"So, Grandpa Third, can you tell me about my parents?" Looking up, Naruto smiled, hollow and scary.

This sentence directly made Sandaimu's expression change, he stared at Naruto closely and asked seriously: "Naruto, who told you what!"

"It seems that the third generation of grandpa can't say anything." Obviously, it was once a bright blue, but now it became a little cold. "Well~ I won't bother you anymore, Lord III!"

He smiled again, then turned to leave.

Looking at Naruto's leaving back, the expression on Thirdaime's face was uncertain.Suddenly, he waved his hand and called out Anbu.

"Recently, has Naruto met any strangers?"

"No."

Sandaime sighed heavily, "Things are getting tricky, let's send a few more people to look after Naruto, you should pay attention these few days."

"Yes." After saying this, Anbu left.

Looking at the empty office, Third Generation rubbed his eye sockets, looking at Naruto's leaving figure full of worry.

Konoha has just experienced a battle, and there are not many people who can mobilize.Naruto, don't cause any more trouble...
