Chapter 4 - Chapter 3: Going Shopping.

In the morning, sunlight streamed through the windows of both Naruto and Sasuke's rooms. They both woke up and sat up in their beds.

Naruto experienced firsthand the true meaning of a "hectic day" as mentioned by Tengan the night before. Hectic alone couldn't accurately describe it; it was more like pure insanity and mind-blowing chaos, leaving him looking grumpy.

In contrast, Sasuke simply awoke peacefully, lying in his bed after the best night of sleep he had ever experienced. His good sleep put him in a good mood in the morning. He stretched his muscles as a warm-up for the day.

Then, Tengan knocked on Naruto's door and spoke, "Boy, are you awake? Can you open the door?" Tengan asked.

"Coming," Naruto replied, standing and walking to the door.

Naruto opened the door with an innocent expression and asked, "Yeah, what is it, Old Gramps?"

"Oh, I just wanted you to have this," Tengan said, handing him some clothes to wear. "It's only temporary for the time being."

Naruto smiled and inquired, "Oh, what's this, Old Gramps?"

"These are just some clothes that the academy provided," Tengan explained, giving Naruto the clothes. "You two can't go roaming around the city wearing that outfit," he said jokingly.

"Hey, what's wrong with this outfit?" Naruto pouted.

Tengan chuckled at Naruto's expression and said, "Here, take it," as Naruto accepted the clothes.

Tengan then smiled and said, "Okay, if you're done changing your clothes, go to the kitchen because dinner is ready," as he walked to Sasuke's room.

Halfway to Sasuke's door, he stopped and glanced at the blonde boy. "Oh, if you're done changing your clothes, come to the kitchen, I have something to tell you two about," Tengan said, continuing to walk to Sasuke's room.

"Okay, thanks..." Naruto said, closing the door.

Tengan knocked on Sasuke's door, and suddenly heard footsteps as the door opened. Sasuke was half-naked, shirtless when opening the door, his more muscular physique than a normal teenager evident.

"What do you want, old man?" Sasuke said in a stoic expression.

Tengan gave him a warm smile and said, "Oh, I just wanted to give you this," handing a bunch of clothes to Sasuke.

Sasuke raised an eyebrow and asked, "What is this?" in a curious tone as he took them.

"These are just some clothes that the academy provided earlier," Tengan said to Sasuke.

"Why, I don't need this," Sasuke said stoically.

"Are you sure you don't need it? Because you can't wear that outfit of yours," Tengan stated firmly.

"Why not," Sasuke responded.

"Because you can't wear that outfit of yours in the city; you will attract people's attention," Tengan explained to the dark-haired boy.

Sasuke didn't respond immediately; he seemed to be processing the old man's words, but then he took the clothes and closed the door. After he closed the door, Tengan stopped him and spoke.

"Oh, and if you're done changing your clothes, come to the kitchen. I have something to discuss with the two of you," Tengan said, walking away. Sasuke glanced for a moment, then closed the door.

As they wore the clothes Tengan provided, initially, Naruto and Sasuke were given clothes by Tengan. It was necessary for them not to walk around in their worn-out outfits to avoid attracting too much attention. Hope's Peak gave both Naruto and Sasuke new clothes to wear, provided by Jin Kirigiri.

Tengan gave them the new clothes given by Jin Kirigiri. Despite Sasuke being taller than Naruto, both of them, being physically strong, found it challenging to fit into the clothes that Tengan offered them.

Naruto was now dressed in a white t-shirt and light brown shorts, while Sasuke wore a black long-sleeved and navy blue jogging pants. They both went outside their rooms and saw each other.

Sasuke and Naruto looked at each other for a moment, and Naruto spoke. "Good morning, Sasuke. How was your night?" He said with a smile.

Sasuke folded his arms and replied, "Better. How about yours?" He said with a stoic expression.

"The worst. I had a really bad night," Naruto muttered with a grumpy face.

"Hmph... Sucks to be you," Sasuke retorted in a mocking tone.

Naruto frowned irritably and said, "Screw you, Sasuke," clearly annoyed.

"By the way, we better get going. The old man is waiting for us in the kitchen," Sasuke remarked as he walked past Naruto.

Naruto nodded as they both walked together towards the kitchen. Upon entering the kitchen, they were greeted by Tengan, who was sipping tea at the table.

Tengan noticed the two boys entering the kitchen, he set his tea down and smiled warmly at them. "It seems you two are about ready," Tengan remarked, sipping his tea in the living room.

As Sasuke and Naruto approached Tengan in the kitchen, Tengan stood up from his seat, setting his tea aside. He had a kind and wise demeanor, exuding a sense of tranquility that often calmed the turbulent spirits of the young ninja.

"I hope you both had a restful night," Tengan said, his voice gentle yet commanding.

Naruto scratched his head sheepishly, "Not really, but we're ready for whatever your going tell us, gramps."

Sasuke remained silent, his dark eyes focused on Tengan with a mix of respect and determination. Tengan gazed back at them, his eyes seeming to hold a deep understanding of their inner turmoil and ambitions.

Tengan then gestured for the two boys to join him. "Come join me here," he said warmly, encouraging Naruto and Sasuke to take their seats at the table.

As they settled in, Tengan asked, "Are you two hungry? Would you like something to eat?"

Naruto's face lit up with a big smile, "Ah, do you have some ramen?"

Tengan went to his drawer and replied, "No, but I have cup noodles. What flavor do you want?" he asked the blonde boy.

"What flavors are available?" Naruto inquired.

Tengan listed, "There's seafood, beef, pork, or super spicy."

Naruto grinned widely, "Then I'll take the seafood."

Turning to Sasuke, Tengan asked, "What about you? What food would you like?"

Sasuke, meeting Tengan's gaze, spoke in a low and calm tone, "I'm not hungry," folding his arms silently.

Suddenly, Sasuke's stomach growled loudly, causing both Tengan and Naruto to hear it. Sasuke looked embarrassed, while Naruto burst into laughter and Tengan chuckled.

"Not hungry, huh, Sasuke?" Naruto teased, tapping his shoulder.

"Shut up, loser," Sasuke replied, annoyed by Naruto's teasing.

Tengan then turned to Sasuke and asked, "So, what flavor would you like?"

"I'll take spicy," Sasuke said in a stoic expression.

Tengan nodded and prepared the two cup noodles, serving them to the two boys. "Here, I hope you enjoy it," Tengan said with a smile.

Naruto clapped his hands excitedly, "Thank you for the meal," he said, beginning to eat the cup noodles. Sasuke remained silent as he also started to eat his food peacefully.

As they enjoyed their meal, Tengan's mind wandered to a hidden truth he chose not to mention to the boys, a revelation that could change the course of their journey at Hope's Peak Academy. He pondered the impact of their inevitable discovery while observing them interact, a silent spectator to their unfolding destinies.

"There's still a lot I don't understand, old man," Naruto remarked, pointing out the technological differences from their village.

"Indeed. If we are to start anew in this foreign land, teach us the ropes," Sasuke added with a stoic expression, his arms folded.

Tengan dismissed their concerns, expressing confidence in their adaptability and suggesting their classmates could offer assistance. "I'm sure you'll get used to it soon enough. It's amazing how adaptable humans can be. And if you still have more questions, I'm sure your classmates won't mind helping you two out."

"So, you're just going to leave us to navigate on our own? Not very helpful," Sasuke retorted, maintaining his stoic demeanor.

"It's the way of the world. I trust you two can manage. Besides, I doubt you want me breathing down your neck. You have your own tasks to attend to," Tengan chuckled, addressing Sasuke.

"Hmph. Whatever," Sasuke responded, folding his arms.

Sasuke understood Tengan's strategy, recognizing the potential for gathering information covertly. He suspected the headmaster might have similar intentions.

"Well, we owe him a lot. This shouldn't be a problem," Naruto whispered to Sasuke, acknowledging their indebtedness.

"Probably," Sasuke whispered back to Naruto, nodding in agreement.

Naruto and Sasuke still needed to repay the old man, though. Perhaps they could get a job? It would be much easier if they both had one. Sasuke pondered the idea, considering their lack of work experience in this new world.

"I need to think more about this later," Sasuke thought to himself.

"What about our classmates?" Naruto inquired, wondering if there were talented individuals who could assist them. "Can you tell me anything about them?"

Sasuke was surprised by Naruto's question, acknowledging his smart side. The thought of seeking help from their classmates crossed Sasuke's mind, realizing it would make their job easier.

Tengan smiled, considering the question before responding, "I'm afraid that's something you'll have to learn on your own. It wouldn't be fair if you found out about them without them knowing about you, don't you think?"

"Narrow-minded old man," Naruto grumbled, showing his dissatisfaction. Sasuke remained silent, arms folded, at Tengan's response.

"Hmph... That won't be necessary for us, old man. We're just going to befriend them all. Don't you agree, loser?" Sasuke said, smirking at Naruto.

Naruto's eyes widened in surprise, not expecting such a suggestion from Sasuke. He sensed Sasuke's hidden loneliness and was glad at the prospect of breaking the feud between them.

"Did something happen to you, Sasuke? I can't believe you're suggesting befriending our classmates," Naruto teased, impressed by Sasuke's sudden boldness.

"Shut up, loser. You're a total idiot," Sasuke replied, annoyed by Naruto's teasing.

Tengan chuckled at their exchange, feeling like he was watching his two grandsons argue.

Unbeknownst to the boys, Tengan failed to mention the online comment boards filled with information about Hope's Peak Academy and its students. Their names would soon be on there, but Tengan found amusement in keeping this detail to himself, he thought mischievously.

Tengan then spoke to them, "If the two of you are done eating, you better prepare yourselves. We are going to buy some clothes for both of you," he said to the two boys.

"Wait, really?" Naruto said, his eyes widening.

"Yes, it's necessary for both of you. I don't have clothes for you two to wear," Tengan said to them.

"What about the school? Did the school provide us with clothes?" Naruto asked the old man.

"The school can't always provide for both of you. Hope's Peak has a lot to worry about, not just the two of you," Tengan explained to the boys.

Sasuke remained silent, trying to process the information.

"There is still one week to go before both of you can fully attend Hope's Peak. So it's better if both of you can prepare everything you need," Sasuke spoke. "You're right. It's better to be prepared than sorry," he said in a serious tone.

Naruto nodded in agreement, "Yeah, you're right Sasuke. It would be better if we prepare," he said to Sasuke.

"Once you two are done, go outside. I'll wait for you there," Tengan instructed the boys as he stood up and walked away.

Naruto and Sasuke exchanged a glance before Sasuke stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go prepare then. You should do the same thing," in a serious expression, walking to his room to get ready.

Naruto also stood up, preparing himself as well.

However, Sasuke and Naruto's day held more challenges. Jin had called earlier to inform them of their class placement in the 77th class, section B, with fifteen other classmates. The classes at Hope's Peak Academy were relatively smaller compared to those in Konoha, but Naruto was thrilled at the prospect of making new friends and forging bonds. He was determined to save the world, end the feud, and cultivate fresh connections.

On the other hand, Sasuke's primary concern was ensuring no obstacles stood in his path, ready to eliminate any hindrances. The fact that class attendance was optional was a welcome relief to both, as they believed it would only impede their progress.

Fortunately, the first item on the agenda was clothing shopping, with the expenses covered by Hope's Peak Academy. Despite Naruto and Sasuke harboring doubts, understanding that nothing truly came for free, they accepted Tengan's offer to buy them clothes, promising to repay it in some way.

As Naruto and Sasuke finished preparing, they stepped outside and saw Tengan leaning against the car, smoking a cigarette as he waited for them. Naruto and Sasuke approached the old man, who threw away his cigarette upon seeing them.

"So, you two are ready now," Tengan said to them.

"Yes, we are. Thank you for waiting," Naruto said with a big smile.

Sasuke nodded silently, indicating that he was also prepared to go.

"No problem," Tengan replied with a smile to Naruto. "Come on, it's time for us to go," he said as he opened the car door.

Upon seeing Tengan enter the car, Naruto expressed his dislike for cars. He would rather run than ride in the strange vehicle. On the other hand, Sasuke also had reservations about riding in a car but understood the need to avoid suspicion by using their ninja abilities.

"I'm not used to riding in that thing," Naruto said, pointing at the car.

"Indeed, but we don't have a choice. We can't just run and use our ninja techniques in this world. It would attract attention," Sasuke said seriously.

Naruto glanced at Sasuke, acknowledging that Sasuke was right. Using their ninja skills would draw unwanted attention, so he sighed and agreed with Sasuke's decision.

"Yeah, you're right. I think that's a good idea, Sasuke," Naruto said in a low voice.

Tengan opened the car window and addressed the two boys, "Are you two just going to stand there, or are you going to come in?"

"Sorry about that, we are coming," Naruto chuckled as he ran towards the car. Sasuke followed silently.

Inside the car, Naruto sat on the right side with a bored expression, while Sasuke sat on the left side, gazing out the window.

"By the way, Jin Kirigiri called earlier to inform us about which class you two have been assigned to," Tengan said to the boys.

Naruto and Sasuke looked at Tengan, curious about their class assignment.

"Tell us then, old man. Which classroom have we been assigned to?" Naruto asked eagerly.

"You two have been assigned to the 77th class," Tengan replied.

"77th class..." Naruto said, wide-eyed.

"Yes, that's correct. That's the class you two have been assigned to," Tengan said with a smile.

Naruto was excited to meet their classmates, while Sasuke remained silent, processing the information.

"Tell us about our classmates, what are they like?" Sasuke asked with a serious expression, leaning against the car window.

Naruto nodded eagerly, also wanting to know more about their classmates.

Tengan chuckled and said, "Sorry, but I can't tell you that. You two need to find out for yourselves."

Naruto pouted, folding his arms, and said, "That sucks..."

Tengan chuckled at Naruto's reaction, while Sasuke stayed quiet, observing the surroundings through the car window.

After a minute of silence, Sasuke broke the silence and asked, "So, where are we going to buy some clothes?" in a stoic expression.

Tengan looked at him through the rearview mirror and replied, "We are going to a mall to buy you two some things you will need."

"A mall! What the hell is that?" Naruto asked in a curious expression.

"You will find out soon enough," Tengan said to Naruto.

As the car pulled into the bustling mall parking lot, Naruto and Sasuke marveled at the sight of the towering buildings and the vibrant crowds milling about. It was a stark contrast to the serene surroundings of Konoha.

Stepping out of the car, Naruto and Sasuke followed Tengan as he led them through the maze of shops and boutiques. Naruto's eyes darted around in excitement, eager to explore the array of stores, while Sasuke remained composed, taking in his surroundings with a focused gaze.

"Wow, this place is huge," Naruto said wide-eyed.

"Indeed, this is one of the biggest malls in Japan. We can buy anything we want here," Tengan said with a smirk.

"Really? That's awesome," Naruto exclaimed.

Tengan smirked and nodded, while Sasuke remained silent, observing the surroundings.

The mall was bustling with people, some walking past them, others eating in nearby restaurants, and some engaging in various activities. Families, couples, and individuals of all sorts populated the area.

"Come now, follow me. It's time for us to buy you two your clothes," Tengan said, addressing the two of them. Sasuke and Naruto nodded and followed him.

Entering the modern clothing store, Naruto and Sasuke were greeted by a wide selection of clothes neatly displayed for browsing. They noted the separate sections for girls and boys, with racks filled with various styles and sizes.

Tengan guided them to the boys' section, where stylish outfits lined the walls.

"Wow, this place is huge, huh? There are a lot of clothes to choose from here," Naruto said, his eyes widening.

"Well, this shop is the perfect place to buy some clothes. You can really choose everything you want to buy here," Tengan explained.

"Really? That's awesome," Naruto responded enthusiastically. Tengan nodded in agreement.

Sasuke remained silent as he contemplated his choice of outfit. He noticed the attention from some female workers and buyers admiring his appearance, which annoyed him, but he brushed it off and kept to himself.

"Damn it, even in this new world, I'm still getting some annoying fangirls," Sasuke thought, feeling irritated.

"I'm going to choose the clothes I'm going to buy now," Sasuke announced, walking towards the boys' clothing section.

"Yeah, I'll go with you," Naruto said, walking alongside Sasuke.

"Okay, choose everything you like," Tengan said to the two boys.

Naruto and Sasuke nodded to the old man as they began selecting their clothes.

Naruto immediately gravitated towards a bright orange jacket reminiscent of his ninja attire, while Sasuke opted for a sleek black ensemble reflecting his Uchiha clan style.

Sasuke was wearing a dark purple polo shirt with the collar popped up. Underneath, he had a black tank top, paired with dark green cargo pants. On his feet, he wore blue sandals, and a necklace adorned his neck. To complete the look, he had a ninja pouch on his left side, similar to his Tsukuyomi or Road to Ninja Outfit. Additionally, he wore a black wrist brace, reminiscent of his original Taka outfit.

Naruto, on the other hand, sported a bright orange jacket that was open in the center over a white T-shirt. He paired this with blue long pants and a ninja pouch on his left side. His outfit was complemented by black rubber shoes with white detailing at the bottom.

After trying on their chosen outfits, Naruto and Sasuke admired themselves in the mirror, pleased with how the clothes fit and reflected their individual styles. Tengan nodded in approval, satisfied with their selections.

"You're looking fine, Sasuke," Naruto teased.

Sasuke smirked and replied, "And I must say the same to you. You made a good choice with your outfit," in a calm tone.

"Looking good, boys. These outfits suit you both well," Tengan remarked with a smile.

With their new outfits in hand, Naruto and Sasuke felt a renewed sense of confidence and readiness for the challenges that awaited them at Hope's Peak Academy. As they left the mall, they were filled with anticipation for the start of their new school life and the adventures that lay ahead.

"Still, there is something missing," Sasuke said in a serious expression. "Tengan, is there an area that sells some belts?"

"Yeah, there is. Why would you need a belt for?" Tengan asked Sasuke.

"Because I need it for my sword," Sasuke replied in a serious tone.

"Why would you need a belt for your sword? You're a ninja; you can just use a kunai and shuriken," Naruto questioned Sasuke, not understanding why he needed a sword.

"Because I'm not just a ninja, moron. I'm also a swordsman, you idiot," Sasuke explained to Naruto, emphasizing his role as a swordsman in addition to being a ninja.

"Hey, I'm not a moron or an idiot, you bastard," Naruto retorted, annoyed by Sasuke's comment.

"Hmph... No matter what you say, you're still an idiot and a moron to me," Sasuke declared, glaring at Naruto.

"Hey, now, you two. That's enough, okay? You're attracting attention," Tengan intervened, addressing Sasuke and Naruto.

Both Naruto and Sasuke glanced around at their surroundings, exchanging looks of annoyance and frustration while folding their arms.

Sasuke chuckled awkwardly and thought to himself, "This is going to be a bigger problem than I thought."

As Sasuke and Naruto stood in an awkward silence, Tengan decided to diffuse the tension between them.

"Now, now, let's not let this ruin our day," Tengan said calmly, trying to ease the atmosphere.

Sasuke and Naruto, still wearing expressions of annoyance, reluctantly nodded in agreement.

"I'll show you where you can find the belts, Sasuke," Tengan offered, gesturing for Sasuke to follow him.

Naruto, feeling a bit left out, chimed in, "I'll come along too. Can't miss out on any action, right, Sasuke?"

Sasuke gave a small nod, acknowledging Naruto's presence as they all headed towards the area where belts were sold.

As they walked through the bustling marketplace, Sasuke and Naruto's initial tension began to ease, replaced by a sense of camaraderie as they navigated through the crowds together. The shared experience brought a newfound understanding between the two, setting the stage for a potentially stronger bond to form between them.

As Sasuke, Naruto, and Tengan made their way through the marketplace, the vibrant colors of the stalls and the chatter of the vendors surrounded them. Sasuke's eyes scanned the area, searching for the section that sold belts for his sword.

"There it is," Tengan pointed out, leading them to a stall displaying an array of belts in various colors and designs.

Sasuke's eyes lit up as he inspected the belts, looking for one that would suit his sword. Naruto, ever curious, started exploring the other items in the stall, picking up a few belts and examining them with interest.

Naruto saw a lot of different kinds of belts for their colors and uses. There are some ordinary types of belts and there are also some unique ones. "Hmm... I don't know if I should also buy a belt for my weapons too," Naruto thought to himself while looking at the collections of belts.

"See anything, you like, my boy?" Tengan asked Naruto.

"Oh, I was just thinking, should I buy a belt for my weapons," Naruto replied to Tengan with a wide smile.

"Well, how about you also buy one then. We never know, maybe you also are going to need it too," Tengan suggested to Naruto.

Naruto scratched his head and said, "Yeah, you're right, Gramps. I do really need a belt for my weapons too," he said with a big smile.

Naruto then chose the sturdy brown belt with silver patterns. "I'll take this one," he said as he grabbed the belt.

"Alright then," Tengan said to the blonde boy, then he looked towards Sasuke to see what type of belt he was picking.

"This one looks perfect," Sasuke said, holding up a sturdy black belt with intricate silver patterns. "It will complement my sword well."

Naruto, intrigued by Sasuke's choice, nodded in approval. "Nice pick! It definitely suits your style, Sasuke."

With the belt in hand, Sasuke felt a sense of satisfaction as he found the missing piece he had been looking for. Tengan smiled at the duo, pleased to see them getting along and working together.

As they left the stall, Sasuke's demeanor had softened, and Naruto's usual energy seemed to have brightened the atmosphere. The three of them continued their shopping adventure, each finding something that caught their interest, forging a stronger bond through their shared experiences.

As Naruto, Sasuke, and Tengan exited the clothing store, they continued to explore the marketplace. Naruto glanced at the old man and spoke, "So, what's next, old man? What are the things you are going to buy for us?" Sasuke also cast a stoic gaze at Tengan.

Tengan took a moment to ponder what they should purchase next. "Hmm... I already bought you clothes. Now, what's next?"

Tengan then noticed a nearby electronics store showcasing the latest gadgets, including cellphones.

"Hey, how about we check out the cellphones?" Tengan suggested to Naruto and Sasuke, pointing towards the store.

Naruto and Sasuke followed Tengan's direction to the store, where he was pointing at a place that seemed to sell some strange, squirrel-like objects, or so Sasuke and Naruto thought.

"Cellphones? What the hell is that?" Naruto exclaimed in a confused tone.

"We'll find out soon enough. Come on, let's go," Tengan replied, walking past the two boys.

Sasuke and Naruto exchanged glances and then followed Tengan to the cellphone store.

Upon entering the store, Naruto and Sasuke marveled at the array of sleek smartphones and innovative features. Tengan guided them through the options, showcasing different models suitable for their needs.

Naruto's eyes widened in amazement at the abundance of cellphones inside the glass displays. There were various sizes, with keypads and touchscreens.

"Wow, what is this strange thing?" Naruto marveled at the collection of cellphones.

"They are cellphones. We use them as communication devices," Tengan explained to the blonde boy.

Sasuke remained silent but was also impressed by the unfamiliar device called a cellphone.

"So, they use this thing as a communication device, huh? Interesting," Sasuke thought to himself while looking at the collection of cellphones as well.

"Is there something you like, sir?" a female worker asked the three of them.

Sasuke and Naruto observed the woman. She appeared to be in her mid-20s, a young and beautiful lady.

As the female worker awaited their response, Tengan greeted her politely, "Oh, hello there, young lady. We were just looking to buy some high-quality cellphones."

Sasuke, typically reserved, observed the young woman with a stoic expression. Her friendly demeanor and helpful attitude caught his attention, albeit subtly. Naruto, on the other hand, was more overt in his reaction, flashing a bright grin in response to the woman's question.

Naruto's eyes widened with curiosity at the array of cellphones in front of him. He turned to the woman with a bright grin, "These are amazing! I've never seen anything like this before. Which one do you recommend?"

The young lady smiled warmly and gestured towards a sleek smartphone with a vibrant display. "This model is popular for its user-friendly interface and advanced features. It's perfect for staying connected and capturing memories," she explained while noting the different colors available.

"Do you have an orange color of this one?" Naruto inquired with a kind smile.

"Sorry, sir, we don't have an orange version of this. The available colors are the ones that you see..." the worker replied, suggesting the option of adding an orange cover to the phone.

Naruto's excitement peaked as he eagerly reached for the recommended smartphone. "I'll take this one! Thank you so much," he expressed with genuine appreciation.

The young woman nodded with a smile, "A great choice! This model is quite popular for its user-friendly features and advanced camera capabilities."

Meanwhile, Sasuke observed the interaction quietly, processing the concept of a cellphone as a communication tool. He then approached a more discreet yet technologically advanced model that appealed to his preference for efficiency and security features.

After making his choice, Sasuke nodded in approval, acknowledging the practicality of the device. "This one suits my needs, and put a black color cover on it as well," he remarked to the woman with a nod.

The female worker nodded to his request. Sasuke, now intrigued by the advancements in technology, scanned the array of cellphones before him. His analytical mind processed the practicality of having a reliable means of communication readily available. After a moment of contemplation, he pointed to a black smartphone known for its security features and durability.

"I will go with this one," Sasuke stated firmly, with a hint of satisfaction in his voice.

The young woman nodded in approval, "A wise choice. This model offers top-notch security and long-lasting performance."

Tengan, pleased to see Naruto and Sasuke making informed decisions, facilitated the purchase of the cellphones for them. As the trio exited the store with their new devices, a sense of excitement for the possibilities that lay ahead filled the air. He, observing the ease with which Naruto and Sasuke adapted to the modern technology, felt a sense of pride in guiding them through these new experiences. "You both have made excellent choices. These cellphones will undoubtedly prove useful in your endeavors," he commended.

Naruto couldn't contain his enthusiasm, already exploring the features of his new smartphone with eagerness. Sasuke, although more reserved, acknowledged the value of modern technology and the convenience it brought.

With their new cellphones in hand, Naruto, Sasuke, and Tengan continued their journey through the marketplace, their bond growing stronger as they shared in the experience of discovering and embracing new technologies together.

To be continued.
