18: Chapter 18 The Second Encounter with Bai"Why save him!" Zabuza put away the kunai that he was going to use to kill Cardo.
It turns out that the kind-hearted Bai knew that if Cardo reached out to Zabuza he would be killed, so he took the initiative to teach Cardo a lesson to prevent him from dying.
But Zabuza definitely couldn't say so much, so to take care of his feelings, he changed the topic and said, "The Kirigakure's pursuit team hasn't given up yet.Killing Cardo doesn't matter, but if our whereabouts are exposed, it will be more trouble than gain!"
"Mr.Zabuza, your body still needs a few days of recuperation!"
"Hmph!" Zabuza could only hum proudly to express that he temporarily accepted Bai's statement.
At this time, Kakashi was looking at the three people who were making good progress in training and felt emotional.
"Sasuke's talent is even greater than mine, and he'll have the Sharingan, which has enormous potential in the future.I'm really looking forward to his growth!And Naruto, at only twelve years old, has several times more chakra than I do!His talent in both taijutsu and ninjutsu is also astonishing.I might not even be able to fathom how far he can grow in the future!He's truly an incredible brat!"
Naruto's clones are still practicing the Great Fireball, and his original body is walking to the other end of the island.He wants to see if he can meet Bai by chance like in the original work.
After all, this man who is more beautiful than many women is extremely popular in anime.He is also kind-hearted and will not fight with Naruto if they meet.Fuza is still recovering from his injuries at the moment, so he is not afraid of meeting Naruto.
By the way, see if you can bring back some big fish.After all, there should be more abundant fishery resources at the seaside.
Fortunately, he was lucky and soon found Bai who was collecting herbs for Zabuza in the forest.
Looking at this man with such a gentle and charming appearance, Naruto couldn't help but swallow his saliva.Naruto reacted quickly and mentally slapped himself twice.Looking at his slightly protruding Adam's apple, he kept repeating in his mind, "He's a man.He's a man.Evil thoughts, go away!"
"Hello.Hello, I'm Uzumaki Naruto." Finally saw Naruto but didn't know what to say.
"Haha." Seeing Naruto looking a little embarrassed, Bai couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle.
Seeing this, Naruto's heartbeat accelerated again.
"My name is Bai.Judging from your forehead protector, you must be a ninja!Why do you want to be a ninja?" Bai asked, breaking the awkwardness.
"It's to become stronger, so that you can control your own destiny."
"But you look very strong!" Bai asked doubtfully.
"It's not enough!I want to become the most powerful ninja in the world!" Naruto looked serious at this moment.This was the first time he told someone his true thoughts.
Bai couldn't help but feel surprised.It was the first time he saw someone dreaming so high.
"Is it for yourself or for others?"
"For myself, and for others as well." Naruto thought of the Fourth Hokage, Kushina, and later Hinata who were holding him when he first traveled through time.
Afterwards, the two chatted with each other on many topics, but neither of them tried to persuade him to leave Zabuza.He knew that their bond had reached the point where they could live and die together.
After parting with Bai, Naruto spent some time catching two big fish that were half his body length long.
He skillfully stacked the firewood, reduced the chakara output to the minimum, opened his mouth and spit out a column of fire to ignite the firewood.
Too much chakra is not good either.I tried my best to reduce the chakra output, but I still almost blew up the firewood pile.
Soon the aroma of grilled fish drifted away on the wind.Sasuke and the others didn't need to call them specifically, as the hungry people who had been training gathered around following the aroma.
"You have such a sharp nose!You all came just when I was about to finish roasting!" Naruto joked.
"I didn't expect that you can cook, Naruto!And your skills are so good!" Sakura swallowed her saliva and said excitedly.
Kakakashi also rarely put away his affection and squatted on the side, looking at the grilled fish expectantly.
"Alright, we're done!I see everyone's been training very hard, so I'm going to give you some nutrition."
Naruto divided the two fish into four portions, and Sasuke and the others started eating like hungry tigers.
Five days passed quickly as everyone practiced.
At this time, Naruto has completely mastered the Great Fireball Technique, and Sasuke and Sakura have also completed the training of climbing trees and treading water.
When Kakashi used his Sharingan to observe Naruto, he was shocked to find that Naruto's chakra had increased by one calorie in the short period of time since graduation.
Sasuke's strength has now reached a higher level, and he can try to use his Fireball Technique in battle.
He had actually learned this ninjutsu a long time ago, but if he used it in battle before, his chakra would be exhausted after casting one shot, so he had only used the lower-level Fireball Technique.
Now that Kakashi's body has fully recovered, everyone began to continue the mission, protecting Danaz and restarting the bridge construction operation.
"Zabuza, I'm not paying you to do charity!Today is the deadline, hurry up and get rid of the Konoha ninjas for me!" Cardo urged Zabuza again.
Although he was annoyed by Kado's tone, Zabuza was a ninja employed by the other party after all, so he had to swallow his anger for the time being and angrily took Bai to find Kakashi and his group.
The group was patrolling the bridge with Cardo when suddenly a thick fog swept in.
Without much thought, everyone immediately understood that Zabuza had come again.
Naruto didn't say much and immediately performed the Great Breakthrough again.
This time he tried to hold back as much as possible, so as not to destroy the bridge that Wave Country had spent all its money to build.
Although he reduced his strength, he still easily blew away the mist.Zabuza did not hesitate this time and let Naruto blow away the mist.
After the fog dissipated, what appeared were Zabuza and the masked Shiro standing together, and not far away were a group of thugs with swords brought by Cardo.
The two sides confronted each other again on the bridge.
Seeing Bai reappear, Sakura couldn't help but start to taunt him: "Hey!The masked man, didn't you lie to us last time that you were a pursuit ninja from Kirigakure?How dare you show up in front of us again today after you deceived us like that?"
"Leave that guy to me.I hate those pretentious guys the most!" Sasuke was the first to choose Bai as his opponent.
"Do it!" Zabuza gave the order.
Bai received the order and instantly spun around, turning into a whirlwind and charging towards Sasuke, showing his extraordinary speed.
Sasuke, whose strength had just been improved, was not to be outdone and immediately stepped forward to engage in a fight.After several rounds of fighting, there was still no winner.At this time, Sasuke used his hands to block Bai's long needle and wrestled with him.
"It seems that you won't retreat easily!I didn't want to take your life!" Bai said regretfully at this moment.
Sasuke was confused when he heard this, and thought to himself, I have already blocked the weapon in one of your hands with both of my hands, how can you perform ninjutsu with your free hand!
