Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Because Of The Sensei, I...
"Have you thought about it? If you give this bell to Sakura, you won't be able to have lunch and you will be eliminated."
Kakashi said to Naruto seriously.
"I know, but it doesn't matter, I came over after having breakfast."
"...this kid."
Kakashi was speechless.
In the information about Naruto, there was no record of Naruto leaving early or being late. He even arrived at school early to avoid being stared at by the villagers.
Could it be that after graduation, he became lazy?
"Besides, with my strength, isn't it just a matter of minutes to re-graduate?"
Naruto said lightly.
He also did this to pass the test.
"Give mine to Sakura, too."
Sasuke interrupted suddenly.
"Why did you choose to give up?"
Kakashi looked at Sasuke unexpectedly.
He knew that Sasuke was the only one who wanted to pass the most among the three of them.
"It doesn't matter, with my strength, I can also graduate easily."
Sasuke said coldly.
He felt that this assessment was completely useless, and the only fight against Kakashi was given to him by Naruto.
As a result, now that Naruto was willing to give up this hard-won opportunity, he was even less qualified to stay.
Instead, he could go back with Naruto, and often find him to train and become stronger.
Although he was eager for revenge, he still had dignity!
"then you..."
Kakashi was about to speak when Sakura ran over.
"Me neither!"
Sakura wiped her tears and firmly refused.
Sakura gave up, even if she was on the same team as Sasuke, she also gave up.
"..." This was a bit beyond Naruto's expectations.
Sasuke also frowned.
Unexpectedly, Sakura quit on her own initiative.
"What about you? Do you want to stay? If you do, then Sakura will be eliminated directly, and you can all go home for lunch."
Kakashi fanned the flames from the sidelines.
"Well, since that's the case, why not go back together and come back next year."
Naruto shook his head, returned the bell to Kakashi, turned, and left.
He had already understood Kakashi's point, now, it was a retreat to advance!
Sasuke followed suit, while Sakura wiped her tears and looked at the backs of Naruto and Sasuke with emotion.
"You all..."
Kakashi sighed exhaustedly.
"Passed."
Unexpectedly, they gave up this hard-won opportunity for the sake of their companions.
Alas, since they passed his test, he couldn't refuse to be their sensei.
The three of them paused and looked back.
Sakura looked at Kakashi even more excitedly.
"Kakashi-sensei...you mean?"
"Yes, you passed, congratulations, now Team 7 is officially established, and you can follow me to do missions in the future."
It was a happy thing, but Kakashi couldn't get excited.
"YAY!! WE PASSED!!"
"Sasuke-kun, Naruto! We passed!!"
Sakura jumped up happily.
Just for a moment, she experienced what it felt like to go from hell to heaven.
"why?"
Sasuke asked, puzzled.
Why was this instructor so nonchalant?
"You didn't understand the purpose of this assessment from the beginning to the end."
"The purpose of the assessment?"
"Wasn't it to grab the bell?"
Sasuke and Sakura were puzzled.
Kakashi glanced at Naruto who didn't speak.
"Although this is true, the most important thing was how the three of you worked together to grab the bell. Instead of going up one by one, you were worried that you would be eliminated, so you didn't work hard."
Sakura was puzzled: "But there are only two bells..."
"Teamwork was the purpose of this assessment. The two bells were to test whether you can act together regardless of your interests. In the end, I was very disappointed."
"A fresh graduate who was complacent and wanted to challenge his sensei..." Kakashi looked at Naruto.
"Huh?" Naruto tilted his head.
"Cough, Even though your strength is good, acting alone without discussing it with your teammates, was a bad decision."
"As for Sakura, it was good to hide at first, but you kept thinking about Sasuke. Not qualified."
Sakura blushed after hearing it.
"As for you Sasuke, you only think about the bell, and you had no thought of cooperation at all, so you're also unqualified."
"Then why did you say we passed?"
"Yeah yeah, why is that?"
"That's because you gave up your chances for your teammates. Although your teamwork was poor, you gave up your interests for the sake of your teammates. This is very commendable."
"The genins in the past were too obedient and didn't have their ideas at all. Even if the method of passing the test was put in front of them, at the end they all failed."
"Ninjas must be calm and cautious. Anyone who violates the rules of the ninja world is called trash."
"But... people who ignore their companions are the worst kind of trash."
"So, you passed."
Sakura: "That's cool!"
Sasuke sneered.
Naruto was not surprised by the answer.
"Then, this exercise is over! You three passed, from tomorrow... no, the day after tomorrow, team 7 will start to carry out missions."
"Sensei, why the day after tomorrow?"
"Because your sensei is going to recuperate!"
"Dismissed! "
