Konoha: Naruto returns from Boruto: Next Generations

The students were very excited.

Iruka's words caused a stir in the class.

"Congratulations, Sakura. It seems that Granny Tsunade is ready to accept you as her apprentice."

Naruto gave his blessing at the right time.

"Ah? Why?"

Sakura, who was not alert, was still surprised that she had to take part in the Chunin Exam.

It seems that it is not the right time yet?

Although she is a reserve candidate, it means that there is a chance to take the exam.

"Think about it. Granny Tsunade released this information when you came back and listed you as a reserve candidate. What does this mean?"

Naruto began to analyze Granny Tsunade's meaning to them.

Sakura followed Naruto's analysis and fell into deep thought.

"It means that Tsunade-sama has decided to accept you as her apprentice, but not completely."

Hinata asked curiously, "Why not completely?"

Sasuke already knew what Naruto meant: "Tsunade-sama means that before the Chunin Exam, she will let Sakura grow into a Chunin. If she can't achieve it, it means that the apprenticeship has failed."

"That's it!"

Sakura exclaimed, and she looked at Naruto with admiration.

As expected, men who have been Hokage think differently.

"But what I didn't expect is that Tsunade-sama is also going to accept Karin as her apprentice."

Naruto muttered, rubbing his chin.

"Ah? You said Tsunade-sama wants to accept me as her apprentice?"

Karin, who was standing by, was also surprised that she was selected as a candidate for the Chunin Exam.

This is just her first day of school, right?

How could she be favored by the Hokage?

At this time, when she heard Naruto mention her, her face was even more at a loss, and even a little stressed.

"It's okay. It's not a bad thing to be valued by the Hokage."

Naruto smiled and comforted Karin.

"Naruto, I remember that the Chunin Exam hasn't started yet?"

Sasuke asked solemnly.

Naruto thought about it and analyzed, "It should be related to Tsunade becoming Hokage."

Hinata, Sakura and Karin were confused.

Why is the Chunin Exam related to Tsunade becoming Hokage?

Naruto explained, "Tsunade became Hokage, and the third generation retired inexplicably. This is incredible no matter how you look at it. In addition, Orochimaru returned inexplicably, so the major ninja villages couldn't sit still and created the Chunin Exam to test Konoha's strength."

"Naruto, you can actually participate in the Chunin Exam!"

The speaker is the "Chou" of the three families of Ino, Shikaku and Chou, Akimichi Choji.

He looked at the people in the back row with surprise and envy.

Shikamaru frowned on the side.

Naruto was acting less and less like an adult at his age.

He had a vague guess in his mind.

But he always felt that this was not realistic.

"Naruto! We agreed to be the last in the class, but you can actually take part in the Chunin Exam. Then I will not be the last in the future?"

The second-to-last guy in the class looked at Naruto with a betrayed look on his face.

Ino looked at Sakura in disbelief.

She was surprised that Sakura was also selected.

Although it was just a simple reserve, it also showed that Sakura's current strength has surpassed their peers by a lot.

Unfortunately, she didn't know that the so-called reserve was just a provocation used by Tsunade to motivate Sakura.

Iruka announced the end of the get out of class after announcing the news.

Life in the Ninja Village School is so simple and unpretentious.

Naruto, Sasuke and others walked out of the school gate together, but saw Orochimaru standing silently at the school gate, as if waiting for someone.

Next to him were Jūgo and Kimimaro, who Sasuke was very familiar with.

"Orochimaru?"

Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other in confusion.

"Lord Orochimaru?"

Hinata and Sakura looked at Orochimaru in surprise.

Other students who were leaving get out of class also saw this scene. They had all heard of the name of the Three Ninjas, and especially when they saw Lord Orochimaru, one of the Three Ninjas, their faces showed curiosity.

"Long time no see, Sasuke-kun, Naruto-kun."

Orochimaru walked over with a smile.

Jūgo and Kimimaro behind him, like two bodyguards, followed closely behind Orochimaru.

"Long time no see, I thought you never left the house."

Naruto said with a smile.

"Long time no see, Orochimaru."

"Long time no see, Jūgo."

Sasuke nodded at Jūgo and said naturally.

"Have we met?"

Jūgo looked at Sasuke in confusion.

Oops.

When Sasuke saw Jūgo, he subconsciously

For the other person and himself.

Orochimaru spoke at the right time to help Sasuke out of the predicament: "It's okay, Sasuke-kun recognized the wrong person."

That's it.

Jūgo nodded.

"Orochimaru, what do you want to do with us?"

Naruto said.

"Asshole, can you call Orochimaru by his name?"

Kimimaro stood up and scolded coldly. He was annoyed by the two little brats who called Orochimaru by his name.

This guy is quite brave.

Naruto raised his eyebrows.

"It's okay, Kimimaro, you step down."

Orochimaru patted Kimimaro's shoulder, indicating that he was okay.

Kimimaro wanted to say more, but seeing Orochimaru's firm expression, he swallowed what he wanted to say.

"The research you entrusted me with last time is complete. Sasuke and Shisui's spare eyes have been cultivated, and the research on Hashirama's cells has also been completed and can be carried out at any time." Orochimaru answered Naruto's question in a hoarse voice.

Oh?

Naruto and Sasuke's eyes lit up.

This means that their eyes will complete the evolution and will soon evolve into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.

Combined with Hashirama's cells, it is only a matter of time for Sasuke's Sharingan to evolve into the Samsara Eye.

"Okay, Sasuke, you go with Orochimaru, I'll go call Shisui."

Naruto was sincerely happy.

"No, I've already notified Shisui. If it's not too much trouble, Naruto, you can come over too."

Orochimaru invited Naruto.

Naruto nodded, but he remembered that he would move into the new house with his family today, so he split a shadow clone and asked him to wait for his father to arrive here.

He left with Sasuke and Orochimaru.

"Not bad, Orochimaru, the research is pretty fast this time."

Naruto praised on the way.

Who knew that Orochimaru shook his head: "It's already very slow. What you said, I really don't have enough time to do it alone now."

Naruto thought about it and said: "It's okay. When I have time in the next few days, I will find a time to go out and bring someone back for you."

Orochimaru's words reminded Naruto of a person with the same research talent.

Hiru!
