Chapter 464 Supporting Sakura
"Plop~"
As Sasuke slowly let go of his hand, a small ninja fell to the ground with a flop like a dead fish. From time to time, tiny bright blue lightning rose from his body, causing him to twitch slightly.
Sasuke looked at the Scroll of Heaven in his hand, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he casually threw it to Naruto beside him.
"Naruto, put the scroll away."
"Hey, hey, Sasuke, we've already collected all the scrolls of heaven and earth, so there's no need to take his scroll away, right?"
Naruto shouted as he fumbled to take the scroll.
After hearing what Naruto said, Sasuke just patted the non-existent dust on his hands, glanced at him calmly, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly before continuing:
"What do you know? This is the price they paid for attacking us just now. This is also the rule among ninjas. If everyone does not pay the price after doing something wrong, he will do it again next time.
Also, you should have seen that they didn't attack us two just now, but went for Karin. For guys like this, I just knocked them down, which is enough."
Having said that, Sasuke looked at Karin who was checking the ninja's injuries, and said with a slightly relieved expression:
"Karin, don't worry. I knew what I was doing when I attacked just now. They will be able to recover in half an hour."
At this time, Karin had already checked the ninjas in this team and knew that Sasuke was right. He had indeed shown mercy, so she nodded and said:
"Okay, let's throw these guys onto the tree first. That way, they won't be helpless when they encounter wild beasts before they regain their ability to move."
Sasuke and Naruto naturally had no objection to Karin's suggestion. They each picked up one person and hung them on the treetops. In this way, even if there were wild beasts that could climb trees, they would be unable to do anything to them.
After settling these people, Karin looked at Naruto who was in a low mood, and after a moment of hesitation, she comforted him:
"Naruto, you don't have to feel guilty. Not to mention that they attacked us first, we are currently in the Chunin Exams, and those who are eliminated are those who are not strong.
Even if they were promoted to Chunin under your wishes, it would not be a good thing for them.
Because if they do this, the enemies they encounter in the future will be even stronger, and if they are not capable enough at that time, they may pay the price with their lives, understand?"
After receiving Karin's comfort, Naruto looked much better. He scratched the back of his head embarrassedly and explained:
"Karin, I was also very angry when they attacked you, but when I saw that they didn't give up in the end, I was still touched. I also know that they deserved the way they are now."
After hearing Naruto's words, although Sasuke next to him didn't say anything, an inexplicable emotion flashed in his eyes, and even the lines on his face softened a little.
After hearing what Naruto said, Karin just smiled and continued:
"Don't be embarrassed, Naruto-kun. This shows that Naruto-kun is just like your father, the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze. They are both strong and gentle people."
At this point, Karin clasped her hands together and recalled:
"It is said that the Fourth Hokage is like this. He is like a little sun and is very gentle to the people of Konoha Village. Otherwise, he would not have been elected as the Fourth Hokage by everyone."
Hearing Karin mention his father, Naruto's face also showed a hint of pride, and his mood became much more cheerful. He nodded repeatedly and said:
"My goal is to be a gentle and strong person like my father. Then everyone will recognize me, and I can become the Hokage."
Hearing Naruto's words, not only did Karin smile happily, but even Sasuke beside him smiled. After carefully scanning the surroundings, he spoke:
"Okay, now that we have collected all the scrolls of heaven and earth, let's hurry to the center. This way, we can not only avoid those annoying guys, but also get some more rest."
Hearing Sasuke's proposal, Naruto and Karin nodded in agreement and rushed towards the center.
Just when the few of them had walked a short distance, a very miserable wailing sound suddenly came from their left side. However, perhaps because the distance was a little far, the sound was much weaker when it reached here.
After hearing this voice, Naruto's heart skipped a beat and he stopped involuntarily. He stood on a tree trunk and looked in the direction where the voice came from with a hesitant look on his face.
Seeing Naruto stop, Sasuke naturally stopped as well, standing on a tree trunk that was much taller than Naruto, looking down at him, and said:
"Why, sympathy overflows again?"
After seeing Naruto's expression, Sasuke had no idea what he was thinking, so he said with a hint of sarcasm.
After hearing what Sasuke said, Naruto felt a little embarrassed, but after meeting Karin's helpless look, he still explained:
"Sasuke, Karin, I heard that voice just now, why does it sound a bit like Sakura? After all, we are classmates with Sakura, and she has liked you for such a long time, otherwise, why don't we go over and take a look?"
After Naruto finished speaking, he looked at Sasuke rather eagerly.
After hearing what Naruto said, Sasuke frowned slightly, his expression became serious, and he looked at Naruto and confirmed:
"Naruto, can you confirm that the voice just now was made by Sakura?"
Sasuke is not a heartless person. Although he has never been very fond of Sakura, he cannot bear to watch her die.
So, after hearing what Naruto said, Sasuke changed his mind.
Karin next to him also looked at Naruto anxiously. After all, as a girl, she was quite familiar with Sakura.
When Naruto heard Sasuke's words, he hesitated for a moment, but nodded in confirmation:
"That should be correct. It's very likely to be Sakura."
At this point, Naruto was already getting a little anxious, looking at Sasuke eagerly. If Sasuke still didn't agree, he would have to go first.
After hearing what Naruto said, Sasuke knew that there was no time to lose, and he rushed in that direction while saying:
"Naruto, Karin, let's go. Karin, you should be familiar with Sakura's chakra, use Kagura's mind's eye to confirm her location, and let's rush over."
