His figure turned into a ball of white mist and disappeared.

Chapter 37 Still a familiar feeling

After seeing Kakashi disappear without even saying a word of explanation, the other three were fine, but Sakura was immediately Spartan. How could this happen?!

What is the last mission? Kakashi-sensei, you need to explain it clearly before you leave!

Sakura felt an indescribable depression in her heart, and even a little bit of a breakdown. She really didn't expect that her guiding ninja would be such an unreliable person. Is there really no problem with the future of their team 7? Is it really bleak?

"Brother Kakashi, this guy!"

Naruto also felt a bit gritting his teeth.

But he had long been accustomed to Kakashi's personality. Wanting him to be serious would be harder than climbing to the sky, right?

So, the question now is whether we have to go to the second training ground at 5 o'clock tomorrow? According to Naruto's understanding of Kakashi, this guy is always late for several hours for most things!

Of course, important matters like carrying out missions and being summoned by the Hokage will not be vague, from this point of view.

"It should be okay tomorrow, right?"

Naruto muttered.

"Eh? Naruto-kun, what did you just say?"

Sakura Haruno turned her head and looked at Naruto with a puzzled look and asked.

"What I mean is that Brother Kakashi is always late, just like today. I wonder if Brother Kakashi will deliberately make us wait for a long time for tomorrow's meeting!"

Naruto said with a conflicted look on his face.

"Eh? Really?!"

When Sakura heard Naruto's words, her eyes widened instantly.

Sasuke, who had already stood up, also frowned.

"But no matter what, we have to gather at five o'clock, right? After all, this is the order from our superiors. Don't forget that we are no longer students in the ninja school, but formal ninjas!"

Menma on the side said this with a calm expression.

Menma knew this part of the plot in the original book too well. Kakashi was not late at all these two times. Instead, he arrived early and had been hiding on the side and observing secretly. This was Kakashi's first real test for Team 7.

Therefore, whether he is late or not, Menma will not consider this issue. But when it comes to breakfast, there is no need to listen to Kakashi. Eat when you should eat, drink when you should drink, and don't let yourself down!

And that was when he heard Menma's words.

Sasuke and Naruto were stunned at first, and then nodded slowly. Only Sakura was a beat slower, or even seemed to have not fully reacted. She nodded as if she understood it but not quite.

"Well, tomorrow is very important after all, and Kakashi-sama won't be late!"

Naruto said with a grin.

"Hey, now is a perfect time. How about the four of us go out for dinner together? To celebrate the establishment of our Class 7?"

Then his gaze obviously shifted to Sasuke and Menma, and he continued to ask.

Sakura Haruno's eyes lit up at the side, and she looked at Menma and Sasuke with hope, especially the latter.

"No, I won't go. I have other things to do!"

Sasuke had a calm expression on his face and shook his head decisively to refuse.

"Whoosh!"

After that, he also leaped down from the roof and quickly moved away along other eaves.

"Well, there will be plenty of time later. Let's stop here today. I'm sorry, Naruto, Sakura."

Menma also smiled and shook his head to refuse, then bowed slightly.

His figure flashed, without giving Naruto any chance to say a second word, he left the spot and returned to his own position.

"Hello...."

Looking at Menma and Sasuke who disappeared in an instant,

Naruto put his hands on his hips and showed a helpless look, but this was not the first time such a scene had happened.

Didn’t Menma and Sasuke not come to the last graduation dinner?

"These two guys are so unsociable. They still have plenty of time to do this in the future. Really!"

Naruto said rather angrily.

"Then there's nothing we can do, Sakura. If the two of them don't go, it would seem a bit weird if the two of us go. Let's wait until next time, Sakura!"

Naruto said as he turned to look at Haruno Sakura.

"Yeah, I can do anything!"

Although Sakura felt very sorry and was so frustrated that she was yelling in her heart, she still tried to put on a ladylike expression on the surface and nodded in reply.

"See you tomorrow then!"

Naruto smiled and waved at Sakura.

"Whoosh!"

He also flashed and flew down from the roof, rushing in a different direction from the two of them.

Looking at Naruto's back as he left.

Haruno Sakura's face suddenly sank.

This should be a very happy and joyful day!

But why do I feel so empty now?

"No, Haruno Sakura, you must cheer up, this is only the first day, you are a capable child! Yes! You must work hard!"

Sakura patted her cheeks with both hands to encourage herself!

Finally, after taking a deep look at the directions in which Sasuke, Naruto, and Menma left, Haruno Sakura took a deep breath, clenched her fists and waved them twice with slight force, then turned around and left the ninja school.

The plot still unfolds without any incidents. At present, it is hard to say whether it is good or bad. However, for Menma, the best thing is that there are no accidents!

'The next step is to enter the real countdown!'

Menma thought silently in his heart.

The next day, at 4:20 in the morning.

Menma got up from his bed on time, and after a simple wash and breakfast, he set off for the second training ground.

When Menma arrived, there were still a few minutes before the agreed time, but Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura had already arrived at the second training ground earlier than Menma. Sasuke's appearance didn't show it, but Naruto and Sakura obviously looked a little out of spirits.

"Oh! Menma, good morning!"

But when I saw Menma.

Naruto still mustered up his courage and greeted at the top of his voice.

"Well, good morning, Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke!"

Menma smiled faintly and greeted softly.

"Good morning, Menma-kun!"

Sakura seemed to wake up immediately from her groggy mental state and lightly lifted her hair before replying.

Sasuke, who was leaning against a big tree trunk, nodded slightly with an indifferent expression as a response.

Chapter 38 Before the Sudden

After a brief greeting.

Menma just found a random seat and sat down, closing his eyes to rest. If there was no deviation from the original plot, they would have to wait at least five or six hours. Kakashi seemed to appear at around 10 or 11 o'clock.

Before that, it is right to conserve your energy.

After seeing Menma's attitude, Naruto shrugged helplessly and gave up the idea of ​​chatting with Menma.

Naruto originally thought that since they were all in the same team, they should be able to get along better. Unexpectedly, both Menma and Sasuke were still the same.

Sakura also looked like she wanted to speak but didn't dare to, her little hands were twisted together in confusion.

The atmosphere is completely different from that of Team 7 in the original novel.

And as the four of them waited in silence, time passed slowly, one hour, two hours, three hours.

By the time the sun is hanging high in the sky.

It was after eight o'clock.

Still no sign of Kakashi.

Veins suddenly popped out on Naruto's forehead.

"Ahhhhhh, Brother Kakashi is such a bastard. I know you can't trust him. As expected, he's late again. It's already past eight o'clock!"

Naruto said angrily.

"Maybe there was some emergency along the way..."

Sakura, who was sitting nearby, said weakly words that even she did not believe. Beneath her seemingly quiet exterior, she was already roaring with rage in her heart.

Anyone has to get up at 4 o'clock in the morning and rush to the training ground before o'clock. The person who is waiting fails to show up, and this failure has lasted for three or four hours, and there is still no sign of anyone. It would be strange if his mentality does not explode!

Sasuke's expression also became visibly gloomy.

It's still March now.

It’s still early in the morning without having breakfast.

No matter how good a person's personality is, he or she will probably become awkward.

Only Menma still sits firmly on the throne.

This is not only the blessing of the original plot, but also because as early as when he arrived, Menma had used his huge perception ability to detect Kakashi's location in advance. Kakashi should have thought that it was impossible for the four little guys to find his location.

He carelessly chose the simplest concealment method and hid in a corner to observe them, but unfortunately he could not hide it from Menma who had Kagura's mind.

It should be said that in today's ninja world, there are indeed many people who can defeat Menma, but there are very few who can escape Menma's perception and means!

Kagura's heart's eye of the Uzumaki clan.

But it is a super BUG perception method!

"Tsk, how could there be any emergency? I'm definitely late. No, I'm going to complain to the Third Grandpa later. Brother Kakashi is really outrageous!!!"

Naruto said with an 'indignant' look on his face.

The main thing is that this is not the first time that Naruto has been fooled by his elder brother Kakashi. Once before, they made an appointment to eat ramen together, but he actually stood him up in the end!

Naruto's 'anger value' is very high now!

This also made Kakashi, who was hiding not far away, couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

'Naruto is still immature, Sakura, well, not so good either, Sasuke is okay, and Menma seems to be the most stable one...'

Kakashi was observing the four people while thinking silently in his heart.

Different from some of the previous insignificant lateness.

The two times that Kakashi was deliberately late was to secretly observe his four subordinates, which was completely different from the past.

You don't need to care about Haruno Sakura as an extra.

But Kakashi must treat the other three people seriously. In order to better guide and educate these people in his team, Kakashi naturally needs to have more information and data to understand these people in all aspects.

And this is also a small test for the four of them.

What is a ninja?

Only those who have patience can be called qualified ninjas, because various emergencies are likely to occur during a mission, which is a great test of a ninja's character and ability. These conditions can easily determine the success or failure of a mission, and even the life of the ninja himself! !

Now let’s see.

Naruto and Sakura are still a little short of what they should be!
