Chapter 345: Encounter with Konohamaru Team

Kimimaro and Sasuke quietly approached Naruto, and Sasuke was the first to speak in a low voice: "Naruto, what should we do next?" Kimimaro nodded silently, his eyes also focused on Naruto.

Naruto raised his head slightly and sighed softly: "I originally planned to take the Ten-Tails from Isshiki for myself, but now that Isshiki is dead, this plan has come to nothing. Now I can only take it one step at a time."

"Kou should have successfully infiltrated the Akatsuki organization and is just waiting for them to start a war. Kaguya's power is weaker than Isshiki's. We have a great chance of winning this war, but it's hard to predict how much it will cost. During this period of time, you must practice well and strive to break through to the Dan realm as soon as possible."

Soon the three of them quietly left the Fire Temple without alerting anyone.

For two months, the three of them traveled around the Ninja Continent.

With Naruto's accumulation of resources, Sasuke and Kimimaro's realms began to steadily improve.

One day, when the three of them passed through a town in the Fire Country, a huge poster attracted him.

Just because there is a beautiful woman painted on the poster.

Seeing Naruto staring at the woman in a daze, Sasuke couldn't help but tease, "Why, are you attracted to her?"

When Naruto heard Sasuke's teasing, his face suddenly turned red, and he quickly waved his hands to deny: "How is that possible? I just think she looks familiar."

As he spoke, his eyes unconsciously lingered on the poster for a few seconds, as if he was trying to recall something.

At this moment, a white horse mysteriously appeared out of nowhere on the wall where the poster was originally posted.

Sitting on the horse was a woman whose face was exactly the same as the beauty on the poster.

Naruto looked at her receding back, his heart full of curiosity and confusion.

However, in an instant, something unexpected happened.

The wall with the posters on it was pushed open from the inside, and then a team of guards in armor and riding black horses surged out like a black tide.

The sound of horse hooves was like thunder as they rushed towards Naruto and Sasuke.

The two reacted quickly and used "Shave" at the same time, instantly dodging onto a nearby roof.

Naruto frowned, his face full of anger, and shouted loudly: "Don't these people look at others when they ride horses? Are they in a hurry to reincarnate?"

While Naruto was getting angry, Sasuke kept staring at the street in the distance. His eyes tightened, and then he nudged Naruto with his elbow and whispered, "Look over there."

Naruto looked over and saw the woman who looked exactly like the one in the poster riding a black horse and galloping wildly on the street in the distance. Wherever she went, the crowd was panicked and in commotion.

The team of guards on black horses that had rushed out of the wall earlier were chasing closely behind, shouting something.

In this chaotic chase scene, three little brats suddenly appeared in front of the Black Horse Guards.

The leading young man had a sly grin on his face, and then, at his command, the three men quickly threw out several glass bottles filled with lubricating oil.

The glass bottle drew an arc in the air and shattered when it hit the ground. In an instant, the lubricant spread across the street, flashing a dangerous luster under the sunlight.

Soon, the black horse guards came galloping.

They obviously did not expect such a situation to suddenly occur ahead. The leading guard tightened the reins and tried to make the horse stop urgently. However, the horse's hooves had already stepped into the area full of lubricating oil. For a while, the horse's neighing sounded one after another.

The horses lost their balance one after another, their front hooves slipped, their hind legs kicked wildly, some simply fell sideways, throwing the guards off their backs; others just spun in place, screaming in fear.

The guards rolled on the ground in a panic, trying to steady themselves, but were unable to get up due to the lubricant. The scene was in chaos, and the originally orderly pursuit team collapsed in an instant.

Naruto's eyes widened, staring at the three little brats, and said in surprise: "Konohamaru, Moegi, Udon, why are these three little guys here?"

Curiosity instantly filled Naruto's heart. He quickly came behind Konohamaru and asked loudly, "Hey, Konohamaru, why are you three brats here?"

Konohamaru heard the shout and turned his head to look. When he saw that it was Naruto, a smile of surprise suddenly appeared on his face. He trotted over to Naruto and said excitedly:

"Naruto-nii, why are you here too? The three of us followed Ebisu-sensei out on a mission, but we don't know where he ran off to. We saw that beautiful sister being chased, so we came to stop them."

As the two were talking, the team that was covered in dust and dirt due to the lubricant had regrouped and was now rushing angrily towards Konohamaru and the others, looking like they were ready for a fight.

Naruto pursed his lips and warned loudly: "Be careful!"

Konohamaru's eyes focused, and he used the "Shave" without hesitation. He disappeared from the spot in an instant like a ghost, easily avoiding the attack.

Afterwards, he, Moegi, and Udon formed a triangle and rushed into the crowd like an arrow, performing six moves to launch a fierce attack.

For a while, the sound of fighting continued. After just a few minutes, the group of people fell to the ground in a mess, groaning in pain.

The crowd watching around couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when they saw this.

Naruto looked at Konohamaru who looked very proud, walked up to him, patted his head affectionately, and praised him: "Not bad, you three little brats, you used the Six Styles quite well!"

When Konohamaru heard Naruto's praise, he laughed even more proudly, and his laughter echoed over the street.

Udon lowered his head and touched his head a little embarrassedly, with a shy smile on his face.

Meng Huang's cheeks had already turned red. She lowered her head slightly, her fingers unconsciously entangled with the corners of her clothes. She looked like a flower budding in spring, delicate and shy.

In their hearts, no material rewards in the world could compare to Naruto's heartfelt praise.

Just as Konohamaru was talking endlessly and excitedly about their "heroic deeds", a black shadow suddenly flashed like a ghost and appeared among the group of armored guards.

The man's face was full of anger, and he shouted loudly: "Konohamaru, what are you doing!" While cursing, he hurriedly helped up the guards who fell to the ground, and kept apologizing.

Then, he pointed at a man wearing glasses and said angrily, "You idiot, do you know that this is the client of our mission?"

But just as he turned around and looked back at Konohamaru, his eyes inadvertently swept across the eye-catching yellow figure. He was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face froze instantly, as if he had seen something extremely incredible.
