April 25, 60th year of the Konoha calendar, at night, in the country of Waves, at the Tatsuna family.
After dinner, looking at Uzumaki Naruto who was so tired that he was dozing off on the table, Inari couldn't help but talk, becoming more and more excited as he spoke.
"Why do you have to practice so hard? Now that you are like this, even if you have practiced well, you are still no match for Cardo's men."
"No matter how beautiful your words are, no matter how hard you try, in front of truly powerful people, weak people can only get beaten."
Uzumaki Naruto said lazily: "You are very noisy. I am different from you."
Inari slammed the table and shouted: "You should shut up. I get angry when I see you. You don't understand this country at all. You just like to show off. You have no experience at all."
Painful, always smiling guy, we are different."
"Should you regard yourself as the protagonist of a tragedy and cry all day long? An idiot like you should just keep crying forever,"
Uzumaki Naruto's voice was very heavy. At the end, he raised his head and scolded harshly, "You useless crybaby!"
Inari was stunned for a moment, then ran out crying.
"Naruto, you are going too far!"
"snort!"
Facing Haruno Sakura's words, Uzumaki Naruto also turned and walked away.
Hatake Kakashi said, "Sasuke, you should go and rest early."
"good."
Uchiha Sasuke left, and Haruno Sakura simply said goodbye and went back to her room.
Hatake Kakashi drank the tea in the cup, walked out, followed the cry, and found Inari by the water behind the house.
"Can I sit here?"
Hatake Kakashi sat down next to Inari and slowly talked about Uzumaki Naruto.
"Naruto, that guy didn't mean any harm just now, he just doesn't know how to speak according to the situation."
"I have already heard your grandfather talk about your father."
"Actually, Naruto is just like you. He has been without a father since he was a child."
"No, to be precise, Naruto has never even met his parents."
"Not only that, he doesn't even have a single friend, and the only thing that accompanies him when he grows up is looks of disgust."
"But, I have never seen Naruto cry out of depression and frustration."
"That guy always works hard to get other people's recognition of him. In order to realize that dream, he always works hard."
"I think that guy has probably cried enough already, so he knows what true strength is."
"Just like your dead father."
"Perhaps Naruto is the one who can understand your inner world best."
"The words Naruto just said must be what he kept saying to warn himself."
Hatake Kakashi left after saying these words, but Inari stopped crying...
April 26, morning, on the bridge.
Seeing that Naruto Uzumaki was sleeping soundly, he did not disturb him. Kakashi Hatake brought Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno Sakura to carry bricks and help Tazuna build a bridge under the pretext of training.
However, there was someone who was ahead of them, Zabuza Momochi, and the masked man.
"As expected, Zabuza, you are not dead."
"You guessed it?"
"You also guessed that I guessed it, that's why I appeared so upright."
"Then, Kakashi, please guess again, what do I want to do next?"
Hatake Kakashi did not answer, but turned his head, "Sakura, take Mr. Tatsuna back and retreat twenty meters."
"Yes, Mr. Dazner, let's go."
"Is twenty meters enough? Ha..."
Momochi Zabuza started to form seals while laughing, Hatake Kakashi was stunned for a moment, but found that Momochi Zabuza was still forming seals, and his expression immediately changed.
"Sasuke, Sakura, quickly, take Mr. Tazuna and retreat from the bridge."
"What?"
While talking, Mochi Zabuza completed the seal.
"Water Release·Waterspout!"
The seawater moved, and hundreds of square meters of seawater around it quickly rose into the air, forming a huge water dragon.
The water dragon rose to a height of nearly 100 meters, making a roaring sound like a dragon's roar.
Then, the huge water dragon's body swooped down and hit the unfinished bridge, shattering the reinforced concrete of the bridge deck.
Then, the huge water dragon under the bridge rushed past, and the impact lost its height. The water dragon did not smash the bridge piers along the way, but it knocked the foundations in the sea crooked.
When the huge faucet washed ashore with a large amount of seawater, Dazna's bridge collapsed and was carried by the subsequent seawater and washed ashore.
Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno and Tatsuna did not run out of the bridge, but followed the water, stood on the bridge like a sunken ship, and rushed to the shore together.
Looking at the villages affected by the flood, and looking at the men, women, and children in the flood, Dazna no longer felt afraid, and some only felt pain.
"No!"……
On the other side, on another island, is the Dazuna family.
Uzumaki Naruto woke up and found that no one else was there. Hearing that Tsunami said they were all on the bridge, he quickly changed his clothes and ran away.
Soon after, two of Cardo's chakra guards broke in and captured Tsunami.
When the three of them were about to leave, Inari heard the noise and ran out.
Under Tsunami's threat of death, the two guards let Inari go and took Tsunami away.
Inari looked at her mother who was taken away and cried bitterly because she was weak, scared and lacked courage.
While crying, Inari thought of what happened to Uzumaki Naruto last night, wiped away her tears, and chased after him.
"No, don't come here, Inari!"
"Longsuo, just in time for me to chop him."
The guard armor knocked out Tsunami and rushed towards Inari with a knife.
At this time, Uzumaki Naruto appeared with a shuriken, asking the guard to return the sword, and he took the opportunity to take Inari away.
"Sorry, I'm late, but the so-called heroes all come on the scene relatively late."
"Naruto-nii, why are you here?"
"I saw the knife mark extending all the way to your house on the road, so I came back to take a look."
Uzumaki Naruto put Inari down and faced the two guards.
"Here comes another kid, kill him."
"Fool."
The two guards rushed towards Uzumaki Naruto, but two shadow clones of Uzumaki Naruto appeared behind them.
The two shadow clones kicked each of the guards in the face, causing the two guards to faint on the ground.
"Naruto-nii, you are so awesome."
"Does this need to be said?"
"Naruto-chan, you look like a ninja."
"Idiot, I have been a ninja from the beginning!"
"hey-hey……"
"Ha ha……"
Uzumaki Naruto smiled proudly for a while, then suddenly realized that there was something else, and quickly tied up two guards and said goodbye to Inari.
"Inari, I'm really sorry yesterday. I shouldn't have said that to you. In fact, you are very strong."
"Wow," Inari said while wiping her tears, "Damn it, I've obviously made up my mind not to be a crybaby anymore, yet Naruto-nii thinks I'm a crybaby and looks down on me."
"What are you talking about," Uzumaki Naruto stroked Inari's head and chuckled, "It's okay to cry when you are happy."
"Yeah." Inari laughed while crying.
Uzumaki Naruto smiled and said: "Okay, I'll leave this to you. Being a hero is really hard work."...
On the other side, the seaside.
The waves were calm, and Kakashi Hatake stood on the sea and shouted angrily to Zabuza Momochi: "Zabuza, what are you doing!"
Momochi Zabuza's breathing was rapid, "This is my gift, don't you like it? It's you Kakashi who made me take it seriously, but I can't kill you because you are from Konoha."
"Now, you have two choices, either go, or watch me and kill everyone in the Kingdom of Waves."
Hatake Kakashi's heart sank, and he said coldly with a murderous voice: "Zabuza, I have a third choice, kill you."
"Then you have to kill me first." The masked man raised his hand, and the ice attribute chakra turned the surrounding water vapor into ice.
Momochi Zabuza said: "In that case, Kakashi, when I get some rest, I will go back to the shore to find you. Although I can't kill you, I will cripple you."
"I'm waiting for you." Hatake Kakashi retreated and fought on the sea, which was Kirigakure's strength...
