When Sasuke saw the two white lines, his eyes reddened, and he almost burst into tears, clenching his hands tightly.
"Let's clean it up first. We have to keep looking forward," Naruto said, trying to comfort him.
Sasuke nodded silently, and the two picked up cleaning tools and cleaned the house inside and out.
Sasuke did all the work on Fugaku and Mikoto's room by himself.
-------------------------
Time continues to flow relentlessly.
Five years passed quickly.
A training ground near the Uchiha clan.
Kai and Kakashi stood to the side watching the three on the field.
Sasuke and Hinata both awakened their bloodline limits.
And the one they joined forces against was Naruto.
All three fought using physical techniques, their speed overwhelming the opponent's speed, even creating blurry afterimages.
Although Sasuke and Hinata teamed up against Naruto, Naruto gradually put them on the defensive, and the two were eventually at a disadvantage.
Naruto is like he has four arms!
Sasuke gritted his teeth; he knew it was because Naruto was faster than them.
The veins on his forehead bulged, and the Eight Gates Formation was activated instantly.
He opened the "Opening Gate" to break through the brain's inhibition and opened the "Rest Gate" to forcibly increase his physical strength.
Speed and power increased once again, and Hinata made the same choice as him.
If they continue fighting like this, they are bound to lose.
Naruto smiled.
His speed and strength also increased at the same time, but the veins on his forehead did not bulge, and he did not use the Eight Gates Formation to enhance his speed and strength.
He had been suppressing his true strength!
In his normal state, he was strong enough to suppress both Sasuke and Hinata.
Kakashi had already pulled up his headband, revealing his Sharingan, while Guy watched intently as the three fought on the field.
[Damn it, Naruto's physical abilities are too strong. If I keep fighting him in taijutsu like this, I'll lose sooner or later.]
Sasuke's Sharingan and Hinata's Byakugan greatly enhance their static and dynamic vision, allowing them to see Naruto's movements clearly, but their bodies cannot keep up.
"Hinata!" Sasuke called out, and the two of them exchanged a blow with Naruto.
Sasuke used the opportunity to escape the battle area, while simultaneously forming hand seals: "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Hinata unleashed chakra from both hands, forming the shape of a lion's head, and attacked Naruto, not wanting him to have a chance to dodge.
However, without Sasuke, Hinata alone is no match for Naruto in taijutsu.
Naruto dodged Hinata's attack by sidestepping, grabbed her arm, and threw her away.
Then he turned around, stretched out his arm, and slashed fiercely at the oncoming fireball, which was the size of a house.
It instantly split the entire fireball in two.
"What an amazing Wind Release technique!" Kakashi exclaimed in admiration.
Kai smiled but didn't say anything.
"Naruto, how many gates can you open now?" Kakashi asked, glancing at Guy beside him.
"Well?" Kai stroked his chin. "It can already open six doors for a long time, and opening seven doors for a short time won't cause any damage."
"What terrifying physical talent," Kakashi exclaimed, taking a deep breath.
"This is simply the result of his hard work," Kai said, shaking his head.
With that kind of relentless, day-to-day extreme training, constantly pushing one's limits, how could one's physical fitness not improve rapidly?
After Naruto's physical fitness reached the required level, Guy taught Naruto the Eight Gates technique and various taijutsu attack techniques and power generation techniques.
With Naruto's current physical abilities, his hands and feet are deadly weapons.
Later, he saw Sasuke and Hinata training with Naruto.
Whether you're herding one sheep or a flock, it's all the same, so I might as well train them all together.
Kakashi is the same.
"Sasuke, let me show you what real Fire Release is all about," Naruto said with a grin.
He clapped his hands and shouted, "Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Technique!"
Unlike ordinary Fire Dragon, a thick, lifelike fire dragon, over ten meters long, instantly materialized in mid-air, roared ferociously, and charged towards Sasuke.
Sasuke was startled and quickly turned around to move away, trying to avoid the fire dragon's attack, but the fire dragon seemed to have a mind of its own and chased after him.
Hinata rushed over again at this moment. After getting close to Naruto, she stomped her left foot heavily, and a green Bagua symbol instantly spread out, surrounding her and Naruto.
"Gentle Fist Technique: Eight Trigrams One Hundred and Twenty-Eight Palms!" Hinata exclaimed sweetly.
But the next second he disappeared from the spot.
This time, even Naruto was caught off guard, his eyes widening slightly as he stared at the empty space before him.
Then a sharp palm strike came from behind him.
[When did you get behind me?] Naruto didn't have time to think before Hinata's palms landed on his back one after another.
"How did Hinata do that?" Kakashi's Sharingan widened suddenly. He had been watching very closely, but he couldn't see how Hinata appeared behind Naruto in an instant.
Kai shook his head with a serious expression; he didn't know what was going on either.
"Space-time ninjutsu!" Kakashi thought of a possibility; he had witnessed such inexplicable scenes before.
His teacher, the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, is known for his signature technique, the Flying Thunder God Technique.
He appeared in front of the enemy in an instant and then killed him instantly.
This elusive method of killing is terrifying, even leading enemy countries to issue orders that anyone encountering Minato Namikaze should retreat on their own.
Hinata's attacks were very fast; all 128 palm strikes were completed in just a few seconds.
"Naruto, I've sealed your chakra." Hinata said with a smile.
Her personality has indeed improved a lot, and she no longer gets shy so easily.
Naruto put a lot of thought into this.
"Lightning Release: Earth Walk!" Sasuke's clothes and hair were slightly charred. He appeared and, without hesitation, unleashed another Lightning Release attack.
“Lightning Release will paralyze your body, Naruto. You’ve already lost,” Sasuke said with a slight smirk.
"Well done." Naruto turned to look at the two of them, and his body turned into smoke with a bang.
"Shadow clones?" Sasuke and Hinata's pupils widened.
"When was this ninjutsu released?" Sasuke asked incredulously.
Both he and Hinata possessed ocular jutsu, yet neither of them noticed when Naruto used Shadow Clones.
Just then, two hands suddenly reached out from under their feet and pulled them into the ground.
Hinata saw it, but she didn't have time to react.
"When you release the Fireball Jutsu," Naruto said with a smile, squatting down in front of the two of them.
After pulling the two away, Kakashi and Guy clapped and walked over.
Chapter 27 I'm going to fight the Third Generation
"Naruto did a good job, the tactic was very successful," Kakashi said, squinting his eyes. He also liked to use shadow clones to lure the enemy into battle.
He will not easily reveal his true form until he has thoroughly investigated the enemy's situation.
"Hinata, how did you suddenly appear behind Naruto?" Guy asked curiously.
Upon hearing this, Naruto and Kakashi looked at Hinata, while Sasuke, unaware of what had happened, stared at them with curiosity.
"It should be spatial teleportation, right?" Hinata's face flushed slightly, but her voice remained clear.
"Naruto gave me this idea, and I figured it out myself after thinking about it for a long time. Within the Eight Trigrams Formation, I can move anything—matter, energy, anything," Hinata said.
"A genius?" Kakashi and Guy exchanged a glance, both of them looking shocked.
Naruto raised an eyebrow; he had indeed discussed gossip with Hinata.
Based on his vague dream memories, he vaguely remembered that in an anime, there were people who could use various Five Elements spells like them, and some of them could move the Eight Gates.
Naruto only briefly explained the effects of the Eight Gates Transfer to Hinata, but Hinata deduced the principle from the phenomenon and did it even better.
It changed from transporting goods through the Eight Gates to shifting them using the Eight Trigrams.
If Hinata's information were unknown, this move would have been a fatal blow.
You don't necessarily have to use Bagua Palm to teleport behind the enemy; you can also directly stab their neck with a kunai!
Although ninjas are highly destructive, they are still human after all. If their necks are cut off, they cannot survive.
"Alright, that's enough for today's training session. Let's all go get some barbecue!" Kai said, clapping his hands.
"Yay!" Upon hearing this, Naruto and the other two immediately showed joy in their eyes.
Akimichi BBQ restaurant.
Kai requested a private room.
Naruto and his friends are graduating tomorrow.
Kai accepted the assignment to teach a class last year, so it's impossible for him to teach their grade again.
It's possible that Kakashi will lead them.
The group ate and drank heartily in the private room.
After finishing their meal, everyone went home.
Naruto and Sasuke returned to the Uchiha base together.
Yes, Naruto shamelessly moved in and lived with Sasuke.
As Naruto would say, if you have a big mansion, why not live in a small apartment? Even a fool would know which to choose.
Sasuke complained a few times, then obediently helped Naruto carry his luggage.
After Naruto moved in, the huge house wasn't so deserted anymore.
Furthermore, at Naruto's suggestion, Sasuke rented out all the houses belonging to the Uchiha clan except for his own!
House prices in Konoha are getting more and more expensive these days, even though the Uchiha camp is a bit remote and far from the village center.
Moreover, people had died in those houses.
But it's so cheap!
People have died; the ninja world doesn't shy away from such things.
From World War I to World War III, how many people died in the village?
Sasuke is now completely financially secure, a true landlord.
He could have lived a wealthy life even if he hadn't become a ninja.
The two sat in the living room, and Sasuke skillfully brewed a pot of tea, pouring some for himself and Naruto.
Naruto took a slurp.
"After I finish my graduation exams tomorrow, I need to go to the Sarutobi clan's training grounds. You can come with me," Naruto said, putting down his teacup.
"The Hokage's clan's training grounds?" Sasuke frowned slightly. "Why go there?"
The Uchiha clan also has its own training grounds!
"I need to test my current strength," Naruto said calmly.
"You want to spar with the Third Hokage?" Sasuke asked, his eyes wide.
