After parting ways with Naruto, Sasuke went to Sakura and Ino's homes respectively, and the three of them came to Hokage Rock. This is Naruto and Sasuke's favorite place, because from here you can see the entire Konoha.

Sasuke looked at the entire Konoha and said: "I am leaving tonight to train with Orochimaru. While I am away, you must work hard to become stronger."

Sakura and Ino felt a little sad when they heard Sasuke's words. Although they had known that Sasuke would leave the village, they would inevitably feel a little sad when they really came.

Sakura said reluctantly: "Sasuke-kun, do you really have to leave? Can't you stay in the village?"

Sasuke said helplessly: "Sakura, it's not that I don't want to stay in the village, but I really can't stay. For the dreams of me, Naruto and Shikamaru, I have to leave, and Naruto will too soon."

Leaving the village to practice with Lord Jiraiya is something we decided early on, and I hope you can support me."

Sakura felt even more sad after hearing Sasuke's words. Not only was Sasuke leaving the village, but Naruto was also leaving. Although Sakura didn't like Naruto, they were friends for many years after all. To be honest, no matter it was

Sakura would be reluctant to leave Sasuke or Naruto or other friends who had grown up together. After all, although she was violent, she was still very kind, and she had never experienced anything painful, so Sakura really couldn't understand Sasuke.

and Naruto's ideal, so Sakura shed tears sadly.

On the other hand, Ino was more open-minded. She looked at Sakura and comforted her: "Don't be sad, Sakura. There is nothing you can do about it. After all, Sasuke can't improve his strength quickly even if he stays in the village. This is the worst thing for Sasuke-kun."

It’s a matter of tolerance, because the person we love is born to be strong, right? For a strong person, the most important thing is strength, and we should not restrain him, but support him

, giving him the ability to fly freely in the wider world, and when he gets tired, he will naturally come back to us."

Sakura wiped her tears and said, "Thank you Ino. Although I understand these principles, it's really difficult to do them."

Ino hugged Sakura with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay. It's not like we'll never see each other again. We just want Sasuke to go out and practice for a while. Can't we even afford this little time?"

Sakura replied: "Thank you, Ino."

Sasuke said movedly: "Thank you, thank you for understanding me. I promise that no matter what happens in four years at most, I will come back." After saying that, Sasuke held the two of them tightly in his arms.

Ino smiled and said: "Well, I believe you will come back Sasuke-kun. Don't forget that Sakura and I are still waiting for you in the village."

Sakura said: "Sasuke-kun, you must protect yourself, you know? Don't let us worry about you, I will definitely wait for you to come back."

Sasuke replied: "I know, I will definitely come back, and I will definitely become stronger. Thank you for your tolerance and understanding. I am really lucky to have you. I promise that I will cherish each other.

This relationship is yours, and I will protect you well."

Sasuke, Sakura, and Ino stayed at about four o'clock in the afternoon, and Sasuke sent them home respectively. After that, Sasuke returned home, cleaned the house again, and organized everything, and the sun finally went down.

.

At this time, the door of Sasuke's house suddenly opened, and Itachi and Naruto walked in from the outside. When Sasuke saw Naruto and Itachi coming in, he stopped what he was doing and poured them a cup of tea.

I drank tea quietly for a while.

Itachi put down the teacup and asked, "Is everything ready? Sasuke."

Sasuke nodded and said, "I have already said goodbye to Sakura and Ino. As for Sister Jing and Mie, I don't dare to tell them. I'm afraid they won't be able to accept it, so I have no choice but not to tell them. I'll talk about it later when I have the opportunity."

, as for my father and mother, I can only ask my brother."

Itachi replied: "Well, I understand. I will make it clear to my father and mother. Now that you have made up your mind, go ahead and rush forward bravely."

Sasuke said gratefully: "Thank you brother, thank you for supporting my willfulness."

Itachi nodded Sasuke's forehead with a smile and said, "Don't you tolerate my willfulness? No matter where you are or what you are doing, you are my favorite brother."

Sasuke was immediately moved when he heard this. At this time, Naruto said: "Since you have really made a decision, then I also have something to give you."

Sasuke replied: "What?"

Naruto smiled and said: "This thing is not with me now. When you come into contact with the people sent by Orochimaru, someone will give it to you. The person who gives you the thing, you can trust her, if there is anything inconvenient to do,

Yes, you can also ask her to do it."

Itachi smiled and said: "Naruto, I didn't expect you to move so quickly. You have already placed your own people around Orochimaru. I also plan to wait until some time before placing an informant next to Orochimaru. I didn't expect you to move.

It will get to this point soon.”

Naruto scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "Haha, thank you for the compliment, Brother Itachi. I can do the same. After all, although we have an agreement with Orochimaru, who knows if Orochimaru will change his mind, so...

We can only place a small nail next to Orochimaru in advance, so that Sasuke will be safer."

Sasuke was very touched at this time, because he knew that Naruto did this for him. Otherwise, Naruto would never be proud of placing an informant around Orochimaru. All this is for his safety, Naruto

Talent does this.

Naruto saw Sasuke's moved eyes and said hurriedly: "Don't thank me. I didn't do this for you. I just did it for Orochimaru's experimental information, not for you. Don't be sentimental."

ah."

Of course, Sasuke knew that what Naruto said was not true. It was just to cover it up so that he would not feel burdened. Sasuke smiled and said, "I didn't say anything. Why are you so nervous? Go ahead, you big idiot. You still think that you are sentimental."

I will thank you. I don’t care about you that much at all. No matter how much you do for me, I will accept it calmly, so I will not be polite to you, let alone thank you."

Naruto was immediately furious with Sasuke. He was grateful to argue with Sasuke, but before he spoke, Itachi said: "Okay, you two, stop making trouble, Sasuke, you should leave. Remember, if there is any danger, you must leave immediately."

?”

Sasuke replied: "I understand, you don't have to worry."

Naruto took out two scrolls and threw them to Sasuke and said: "Bring these two scrolls with you. There are two flying thunder god techniques sealed in them. You just need to open the scrolls and enter the chakra. The teleportation location is set in Konoha."

In the woods outside, remember to wait for me when you get to the Valley of the End. I have something else I want to tell you by then."

After Sasuke took the two scrolls, he was wondering why Naruto asked him to wait for him in the Valley of the End, and if he had something to tell him, he couldn't say it here. Although Sasuke was curious, he still nodded and said: "I

knew."

After Sasuke left home, he came to the Forest of Death. Not long after arriving in the Forest of Death, Sasuke sensed someone rushing towards him. Sasuke thought to himself: "It should be Orochimaru's men."

Sure enough, after a while, the four sound ninjas appeared in front of Sasuke. Sasuke looked at the four people in front of him and said, "Are you the people Orochimaru sent to pick me up?"

Kidomaru replied: "Yes, we were sent by Orochimaru. It seems that you already knew that Orochimaru-sama wanted us to pick you up."

Sasuke said calmly: "Well, this is the agreement between Orochimaru and I. Didn't he tell you?"

When Sakon saw how arrogant Sasuke was, he immediately said, "This kid is so arrogant. I really want to fix him up."

Tayuya glanced at Sakon with disdain and said, "Hmph, it's up to you. If you go up there and you don't know who is repairing whom, don't embarrass us."

Sakon said angrily: "What are you talking about, Tayuya? Don't think that just because you are a woman, you can talk to me like this. Believe it or not, I will kill you, a stinky woman, right now."

Tayuya replied: "Okay, as long as you have the ability."

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Kidomaru stopped him in time: "Don't say a word, is this the time for your internal strife?"

After hearing Kidomaru's words, the two of them stopped. Kidomaru said to Sasuke: "Okay, since you know that we are here to pick you up, then just follow us."

Sasuke just nodded, and then Tayuya said: "Wait a minute, when we set off, Orochimaru-sama said that he would inject Sasuke with a drug. This drug will allow Sasuke's curse seal to enter the second level."

Kidomaru said doubtfully: "Master Orochimaru really told me this, how come I didn't know it?"

Tayuya replied: "Well, Lord Orochimaru gave it to me before departure. He said he forgot to give it to you, so he gave it to me."

Kidomaru replied without any doubt: "Well, since it is Orochimaru-sama's order, let's inject Sasuke."

Tayuya walked up to Sasuke. Sasuke frowned and was about to refuse. When he saw the box Tayuya took out, he stopped talking. He saw that Tayuya took out the box that Naruto took out in the afternoon. The box

The surface has the symbol of the Uzumaki clan.

Tayuya took out a syringe from the box with the other three people on his back. The syringe was not filled with medicine, but blood. Sasuke looked at the syringe and was very confused, thinking: "What's in this syringe?"

It's blood, what on earth is Naruto going to do, is this the gift he said?"

After Tayuya finished injecting Sasuke, Sasuke suddenly felt pain all over his body, broke out in cold sweat, and passed out after a while. Tayuya took out a big jar, put Sasuke in it, and then carried the jar on his back.

Seeing that everything was ready, Kidomaru said: "Escape." The four of them hurriedly fled to the outside of Konoha Village.
