Chapter 438 Naruto: I can't catch her anyway, so I might as well break up with her

He took two or three bites and chewed them continuously, swallowing the unknown substance in his mouth that definitely could not be considered food, and said in a very sincere tone: "Don't!"

"Sakura, listen to me, don't!"

"Why?" Haruno Sakura was puzzled. In her imagination, shouldn't Uzumaki Naruto accept it happily? Not everyone can eat the precious food made by Haruno Sakura.

To live! Uzumaki Naruto almost blurted out.

Feeling his stomach churning, he said, "Xiaoying, I have to spend all my time practicing now. As for food, the tonic pills provided by the boss are enough. It's not worth wasting more of your time."

"After all, you have to practice too, right?"

Haruno Sakura: "But..."

Uzumaki Naruto interrupted hastily: "And, Sakura."

"There is something I hope you can understand."

"I want to devote all my energy to practice."

"If you come... I'll be distracted. Do you understand?"

Haruno Sakura then nodded.

Right.

She is such a beautiful woman, and coming to deliver meals every day will certainly affect Naruto's training. She is thinking too simply.

"Okay then." Haruno Sakura nodded happily, "I won't deliver the meal for now."

Uzumaki Naruto breathed a sigh of relief.

Haruno Sakura: "After this period of time, when there is a chance, I will let you taste my cooking skills again."

Uzumaki Naruto: "..."

Haruno Sakura left, leaving behind a basket of teethers.

Uzumaki Naruto looked quietly at the brown balls in the basket, then looked at the meatball with a corner bitten off in his hand.

Suddenly, he shook his hand and then threw it towards the distant mountain wall!

“Bang!!!” There was a loud bang.

Large pieces of gravel flew everywhere.

Ten seconds later, a brown ball with a missing corner bounced back to my feet with a "Duang! Duang!"

Naruto Uzumaki looked at the ball, felt his stomach churning, and thought about what Haruno Sakura had just said, and an idea came to his mind.

I can't catch up with him anyway.

How about we just break up?

No, no! Sakura is getting closer and closer to me now. She might have fallen in love with me. What if... what if she is ready to accept my confession?

Forget it, Sakura still likes Sasuke the most, there is no way I can do that.

No! Where am I missing?

Just as Uzumaki Naruto's thoughts were constantly clashing in his mind, footsteps suddenly sounded in the distance.

"Boss! Boss~"

Hearing the familiar voice, Uzumaki Naruto turned around.

"Konohamaru? Why are you here?"

Konohamaru came over running and stumbling, holding a bento in his hand: "Knowing that you are training here, of course I have to come and see you."

He handed over the lunch box in his hand and said, "Here, Ichiraku Miso Ramen! Boss, I don't have much pocket money recently, so I can't afford to buy Tonkotsu Ramen..."

"Enough! Enough!" Uzumaki Naruto was so moved that tears were about to fall. He felt that it was not in vain that he had accepted this younger brother.

After trying the reinforced tires developed by Haruno Sakura, a bowl of hot ramen is now the delicacy of salvation.

"Wait!" Uzumaki Naruto paused, his expression suddenly tense: "You didn't run into Sakura when you came here, did you?"

"Sister Sakura?" Konohamaru said, "I didn't see it." Udon Moeyoung also shook his head.

Uzumaki Naruto finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He took the ramen and wolfed it down.

After eating a bowl of hot noodles, Uzumaki Naruto finally felt alive. He breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his stomach and lay on his back under the shade of the tree.

"Konohamaru, what do you want from me today?"

"Boss, what do you mean? Can't I come to see you if nothing happens?"

"Yes." Uzumaki Naruto raised his eyelids: "But that's not you."

"Hehe~" Although his purpose was exposed, Konohamaru was not embarrassed and showed a flattering smile.

"Boss, I have almost mastered my Rasengan. Can you help me figure out what to do next?"

"Really?" Uzumaki Naruto showed interest: "Show it to me."

Without saying anything, Konohamaru cast a shadow clone in front of Uzumaki Naruto, and then waved his hands quickly. Under the gaze of several people, a ball of light blue chakra slowly gathered and then rotated.

The rapidly rotating chakra made a whooshing sound. Uzumaki Naruto looked at it carefully, and after a moment he nodded in approval.

"not bad."

Konohamaru was very excited: "Really, Boss? So, I have mastered it?"

Uzumaki Naruto affirmed: "Yes, next, just practice patiently to improve your casting speed and proficiency."

After getting the affirmation from Uzumaki Naruto, Konohamaru started grinning like a badger that had stolen a melon and couldn't stop.

"Even though I know you're happy, there's no need to smile so obscenely, right?" Uzumaki Naruto said helplessly.

Konohamaru: "Boss, you don't understand."

"This is not just a matter of the Rasengan. This is about my nemesis."

Uzumaki Naruto was puzzled: "Enemy?"

"It's that guy Uchiha Aoi." Konohamaru clenched his fists tightly.

"Before, I had always lived in her shadow, and I was always just a little bit away from catching up with her."

Meng Huang at the side suddenly interrupted: "Is it just a little bit?"

"Shut up." Konohamaru stopped him unhappily.

"Anyway, that was all in the past."

"Now, I have the Rasengan that the boss gave me. This is an A-level ninjutsu! With it, I will never lose to Uchiha Aoi again!"

"A-level ninjutsu is indeed very powerful." Udon adjusted his glasses: "But why do I always feel that I have no confidence in you?"

Konohamaru felt helpless towards his two teammates who were sabotaging him.

The next second, he stood up suddenly, clenched his fists, looked straight at the scorching sun, and spoke confidently.

"From today on, I, Konohamaru, will no longer be the Konohamaru of the past!"

"I will definitely make Uchiha Aoi..."

"Naruto!" A sudden voice interrupted Konohamaru's motivational statement. With the sound of rapidly approaching footsteps, several people turned their heads and saw that it was Hatake Kakashi and Yamato who had returned.

"Kakashi-sensei, Yamato-senpai." Uzumaki Naruto stood up and dusted off his butt: "What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Yamato said, "It's an urgent mission. There has been some unusual movement at the Fire Nation border. The village is short on manpower, so the Hokage asked us to investigate."

"Let's go now."

Hearing that it was a mission, Uzumaki Naruto did not dare to delay and immediately packed up his things. After packing up his belongings, he followed the two and planned to leave.

Konohamaru said anxiously, "But Boss! I still have questions for you about the Rasengan?"

"I'm sorry, Konohamaru." Uzumaki Naruto said as he walked away, "Just study it yourself first. I trust you."

"By the way, help me return the basket to Sakura. Tell her that I'm on a mission and my bag of ninja tools can't hold any more."

"Don't mention the lunch you brought to me~"

Watching Uzumaki Naruto walking away in a hurry, Konohamaru scratched his head in distress.

He had only just begun his motivational speech when he felt uncertain.

"Konohamaru, brother Naruto has left, let's go back too." Udon said.

"Okay." Konohamaru was packing up the vegetable basket left by Uzumaki Naruto, and saw a springy brown ball inside. He thought it was some new type of ninja training tool, so he put it away.

After everything was ready, he looked at the direction Uzumaki Naruto left and said to himself.

【Boss.】

[Wait for the good news that I will defeat Uchiha Aoi. 】
