Chapter 154 Kakashi Ban

Chapter 154 Kakashi Ban
"Sage Technique, the world of trees is born." A large forest suddenly appeared in front of Naruto, and many thick trees intertwined to form a sea of ​​trees rushing towards Jiraiya. Compared with this sea of ​​trees, Jiraiya's body seemed so small, as if he would be submerged at any moment. However, Jiraiya who turned on the sage mode was not so easy to be solved. The large ball Rasengan kept hitting the sea of ​​trees. Although he seemed a little flustered, with the help of the two sages, he could barely hold on. Naruto still couldn't use a ninjutsu that was too powerful to hurt Jiraiya, and the two were deadlocked for a while.

As for Kakashi, Naruto only used a few clones to fight him. But Naruto's clones were also strong, and with Sakura's super-powerful punch, Kakashi's chakra was obviously insufficient. Jiraiya obviously noticed Kakashi's situation, but he was fighting with Naruto's real body, and Wood Release was too difficult. Even Jiraiya couldn't find the weakness of Wood Release for a while, and could only watch Kakashi fall into defeat.

Naruto's clone used Wood Release to wrap Kakashi tightly and took off the bell hanging on Kakashi. According to the previous rules, as long as the bell is taken, Naruto and Sakura will win. After getting the bell, Sakura was very excited and said, "Naruto, thanks to you, we got the bell." Naruto smiled and said, "Sakura, you did a good job, the power of that physical skill is very strong." At this time, Naruto also noticed that Sakura seemed to have consumed a lot of chakra, not to mention Kakashi. Jiraiya unlocked the Sage Mode, walked over and said, "Naruto, you did a good job, you are worthy of being my best disciple." He patted Naruto on the shoulder and smiled proudly.

Tsunade, who was hiding in the distance, came over and said, "I have seen the growth of the two of them. Kakashi, do you have anything to say?" Kakashi waved his hand and said, "Both of them have obtained the bell perfectly. Let's not talk about Naruto for now. Sakura is already a ninja who can stand on her own." Tsunade solemnly named them, "Hatake Kakashi, Uzumaki Naruto, and Haruno Sakura." The three of them answered in unison, "Yes." Tsunade continued, "From now on, the three of you will form Kakashi's team."

Sakura asked in confusion, "What do you mean?" Kakashi leaned against a big tree and said, "That is to say, from now on, we are members of a team that carries out missions together. Our relationship is no longer that of teacher and student, but as ninjas together." This was nothing to Naruto, but to Sakura it was a recognition of her strength. After that, everyone left the training ground together. Tsunade and Jiraiya had other things to deal with, so they left first. Only Kakashi, Sakura and Naruto were left together, holding the book and following behind Sakura and Naruto.

To celebrate this event, Naruto and Sakura suggested that Naruto treat them to a meal. However, after discussion, the two finally decided that Kakashi should treat them. Facing the pit the two had dug for him, Kakashi immediately made an excuse that he had to make a list of new members, and then disappeared. Sakura said, "You ran away so quickly, you must be rushing back to read." In the end, there was no choice but to let Naruto, who had a higher reward for the mission, treat them. The two came to a restaurant in Konoha with a better environment, and originally planned to have a quiet meal together.

Who knew that at this time, an acquaintance came over and said, "I'll treat you to dinner today." Naruto turned around and saw that it was Iruka. Naruto said, "Iruka-sensei, long time no see." Every time Naruto saw Iruka, he felt more intimate. For the Konoha ninjas of the same period as Naruto, Iruka was an enlightenment teacher. Sakura and Naruto talked a lot about their school days with Iruka, and they had a happy meal.

At this time, the Akatsuki organization had already started their actions. The Sand Village, which was allied with Konoha, had hardly lost much combat power compared to the other three major countries. The Sand Village, which was originally weaker in strength, had been in a relatively safe state during the period of large-scale turmoil in the ninja world, and now there is not much difference in strength with the other three major countries. But even so, it cannot be said that there was no loss in strength. No matter which side of the five major countries, they have become weaker in strength than before. This results in a lower ability to resist when facing a crisis.

Compared with the big countries, some small forces are no longer suppressed by the big countries. In addition, the turmoil in the ninja world has given them more opportunities. Some small forces may become stronger than before. Although the Akatsuki organization has not taken any major actions, it has accumulated a lot of wealth by taking advantage of the tense relations between the big countries. Compared with before, its strength has become stronger.

In order to collect the tailed beasts, the Akatsuki organization felt that the time was ripe and launched an attack on the Sand Village. Deidara and Gaara fought a shocking battle in the sky above the Sand Village. In order to protect the people of the Sand Village, Gaara, the Wind Shadow, was finally defeated by Deidara. Since there were no ninjas in the Sand Village who could fly at that time, they could only watch Gaara being taken away by Deidara. Kankuro chased after him alone, but the puppets he used were all made by Scorpion of the Red Sand, so how could he be a match for Scorpion. In the end, he had no choice but to ask Konoha for help.

Konoha received an urgent request for help from the Sand Ninja. When the fastest flying Hawkmaru appeared in the sky above Konoha, the ninja in charge of communication felt that something unusual had happened and immediately notified the ninja who was deciphering the secret letter. After deciphering the secret letter, Tsunade got a shocking news. Tsunade, who was still considering what tasks to assign to Naruto and Sakura, immediately notified the members of Kakashi's team to assemble.

In the Hokage's office, the members of Kakashi's team gathered together. Tsunade said, "The Kazekage of the Sand Village has been kidnapped." Sakura and Kakashi were surprised to hear this news. Tsunade continued, "The Sand Village has asked us for help. As an ally, we must send the right ninjas to support them. Now we will send Kakashi's team to support the Sand Village and convey the news to Konoha. After arriving at the Sand Village, follow the orders of the Sand Ninjas and help rescue the Kazekage Gaara."

After receiving this mission, Naruto, Kakashi, and Sakura immediately rushed to the Kingdom of Wind. They hoped to arrive in the shortest possible time and rescue Gaara. Naruto was also very anxious. He didn't want the tailed beast in Gaara's body to be stripped away by the Akatsuki organization. In this way, not only would Gaara's life be in danger, but Naruto would also have no way to collect the chakra of the tailed beast. However, if nothing went wrong, it should be no problem to rush there as quickly as possible.
