Chapter 1230 The Valley of the End

Chapter 1230 The Valley of the End

Konoha Village.

It was still the same barbecue restaurant, but there were fewer people sitting around the barbecue.

Sakura propped up her chin and said, "Why do you think Sasuke defected from the village and joined Akatsuki? Is revenge really that important to him?"

Ino sighed, "Hey, we don't even know when he joined the Akatsuki!"

Naruto on the side clenched his fists!
Seeing that they could no longer conceal the truth, Jiraiya and Tsunade told him a few days ago that Sasuke had defected from the village and joined the Akatsuki organization.

After learning this, Naruto was surprised and regretful.

He was surprised that Sasuke would do such a thing, and regretted that he did not discover and stop it in time.

Shikamaru said: "Okay, let's not talk about these unhappy things today!"

Tiantian immediately agreed: "Yes, we finally get together, so let's not talk about the annoying things!"

Shikamaru, Xiao Li, and Ya started eating immediately and relished the food.

Naruto quickly muttered: "Hey, wait for me!"

With Naruto joining in, everyone started scrambling for the food with their chopsticks and forks, as if they were back in the days when they were still in the ninja school.

The food on the table was quickly eaten up in a flash.

Seeing that there was still some meat left, Tiantian suddenly said, "If Shinji and the others were here, they would have eaten all the meat long ago!"

Ino asked curiously, "What are Shinji and the others busy with? Why haven't we seen them for a while?"

Tiantian shrugged: "How would I know? He said he was busy when I made several appointments."

Sakura was a little worried: "Could it be because of Sasuke? Sasuke is an Uchiha, and he left the village. It should have an impact on Shinji and the Konoha Police Force, right? Could Shinji and the others be planning to capture Sasuke?"

Shikamaru picked his teeth and said, "It shouldn't happen. The Akatsuki organization is on the rise now, and the village shouldn't take the initiative to provoke them for the time being."

Dingci complained: "With so many people gone, the barbecue isn't as delicious as before!"

Ino pouted: "I don't see you eating less!"

However, Shikamaru's complaint still resonated with everyone.

In the past, whenever we had a dinner together, not only did we have to book the largest private room, but everyone had to squeeze together to barely have a seat.

Now that Sasuke has defected, Shinji, Yakumo, Karin, Haku, Kimimaro, and Neji have all excused themselves because of something else, so there are a lot fewer people.

Hinata said hesitantly, "Brother Neji has been on a mission for a long time, and there is no news at all. I am a little worried!"

Shino, who hadn't said much, said, "Something is definitely wrong."

Ya sighed: "If you ask me, there's something wrong with the whole village!"

In previous Ninja World Wars, although Konoha suffered heavy casualties, everyone was just sad, and the spirit was still there. But now that Konoha has lost the Ninja World War, it seems that all the spirit and energy have been drained, and all the Konoha ninjas are wilted.

After the dinner, Naruto and Sakura walked silently on the street.

Sakura seemed to have mustered up her courage and said, "Naruto, can I ask you a favor?"

Naruto said: "I know, don't worry, I will definitely bring Sasuke back!"

Tears welled up in Sakura's eyes: "Thank you!" Naruto smiled and said: "We are teammates!"

Suddenly, a figure appeared at the end of the street, attracting Naruto's attention.

Naruto's eyes widened, "What is that.?!"

Menma reminded Naruto in his spiritual world: "Don't make a sound!"

Naruto reacted immediately, and said to Sakura who didn't notice, "Oh no, I forgot that Jiraiya-sensei asked me to train!"

Sakura said quickly: "Then go quickly, don't keep Master Jiraiya waiting for too long."

After saying hello, Naruto calmly chased after the figure that disappeared at the end of the street. Not long after, the two of them sneaked out of the village one after the other and headed east.

After they were far away from the village, Naruto shouted from behind, "Sasuke, wait for me!"

Needless to say.

The figure who just appeared at the end of the street was not someone else, but Sasuke.

After hearing the test given by Shinji, he immediately rushed to Konoha. Because he had previously served as a member of the Konoha Police Force and was familiar with the patrol layout of the village, he easily bypassed the village guards and found Naruto walking on the street.

It was precisely because it was Sasuke that Naruto did not make a fuss in the village, but instead caught up silently.

Sasuke turned his head to glance at Naruto who was shouting behind him, snorted lightly, and continued to rush forward without stopping.

After a long time, the two came to a waterfall.

Looking at the huge stone statues on both sides of the waterfall, Sasuke was a little confused. He didn't understand why Shinji suggested that he challenge Naruto to a fight here, but since it was Shinji who mentioned it, he led Naruto here as requested.

Swish.
With the sound of breaking air, Naruto landed next to Sasuke and looked at the stone statues on both sides of the waterfall.

Naruto pointed to a stone statue on one side and said, "Is that the first Hokage?"

"Well, the stone statue on the right is of the first Hokage, and the stone statue on the left is of our Uchiha clan's predecessor, Uchiha Madara!" After a pause, Sasuke continued, "Because Madara and the first generation fought here and finally established the structure of the ninja world, this place is called the 'Valley of the End', which means the place where the troubled times end!"

Naruto seemed to understand and said, "So that's what's going on!"

Sasuke looked at Naruto: "Naruto, it's time for us to have an end!"

Naruto said, "Sasuke, turn back! Everyone in the village is waiting for you, don't be stubborn anymore!"

"Turn back?!" Sasuke was stunned for a moment, then raised the corner of his mouth and said jokingly: "It's really a strange experience to be persuaded by a fool like you! Forget it, let's not waste our breath, let's fight! I heard that you have become a lot stronger recently, let me see if you have really become stronger!"

Naruto said, "If I defeat you, you will come back to the village with me!"

Sasuke's face darkened and he snorted coldly: "You don't really think you can defeat me? To tell you the truth, I have all my strength back now, and it will be effortless to defeat you!"

Menma then reminded in his mind: "The other party has joined the Akatsuki organization. You have to be careful because he is coming for the Nine-Tails!"

"I won't lose!"

Naruto declared loudly, responding to both Sasuke and Menma.

Sasuke frowned slightly. Although he didn't know why, he felt an unstoppable momentum from Naruto.

Influenced by Naruto's momentum, his competitive spirit was also aroused: "It seems that following Jiraiya has indeed made you grow a lot, but that's it! Today I will let you know what Uchiha is all over again!"

The first update is here!
