At that moment, Naruto, Sakura, Kakashi, and Hiruzen all stared at the kunai that was stabbing Sasuke.
The sharp kunai was about to stab the commander in the next second.
Sakura and Naruto's brains went blank.
Because they also didn't understand why Mr. Jōnin would be so merciless after a good test. This was completely in the rhythm of killing Sasuke.
And Kakashi and Hiruzen were expecting Sasuke to use that Lightning Style.
Maybe Sasuke's choice was not to use it.
'This is no longer as simple as forcing the potential!'
'Is Kakashi trying to force me to use some ninjutsu?'
Sasuke recalled the time in the classroom and thought that probably no one would notice.
But obviously, he had been wrong.
Even if it was just a momentary outburst, it had been noticed.
It was likely that Kakashi had already been there at that time and was watching them.
So!
That was why he wanted to force him to use super speed in this way.
But Sasuke didn't want to use it. First of all, it was just a test, and there was no need to use his own cards.
Secondly!
Speed was indeed similar to Cloud Shinobi Village's Lightning Style Chakra Mode.
So to avoid unnecessary trouble, Sasuke didn't want to use it unless it was a last resort.
And in the next second, thunder flashed.
The dazzling light made everyone feel their eyes suddenly go blank.
Next second!
Zizizi...
Thunder sounded.
Hiruzen in Hokage's office suddenly stood up.
He watched the lightning in the crystal ball.
"It really is Lightning Style Chakra Mode!"
Just as he finished speaking, the light dissipated in the next second.
Sasuke, in the air, was attacked by Lightning Style and fell directly from the air.
The paralyzing effect of Lightning Style made Sasuke unable to move for a while.
And in the next second, Kakashi grabbed Sasuke's hand and clasped it on his back with his backhand.
Sasuke couldn't move at all.
"Got you! Uchiha... Sasuke!"
Kakashi's voice sounded.
At the same time, Hiruzen sat down slowly.
'Not the Lightning Style of the Uchiha kid!'
'It's Kakashi's... Lightning Style clone...'
At the last moment, Kakashi hadn't really killed Sasuke, and couldn't force Sasuke to use Lightning Style.
Kakashi could only forget it for the time being.
The Lightning Style avatar had been specially prepared by Kakashi so that he could stop at the last moment.
Although caught by Kakashi, Sasuke felt relieved.
'Sure enough... Kakashi may have seen that scene, but he probably didn't see it clearly, or he wasn't sure what was going on with my Lightning Style!'
It could be regarded as dodging a disaster!
Sasuke was tied up by Kakashi to prevent him from escaping.
Originally, when Sasuke was taken down, Naruto would definitely have opened his mouth to ridicule, but now he couldn't say a word!
The gap was too big!
Sasuke had been able to fight back and forth with Kakashi, and even... even released two powerful Fire Style ninjutsu in a row.
The strength was not at the same level at all, which made Naruto have no idea of mocking Sasuke at all.
There was just unsatisfied emotion.
'How could such a huge gap be opened by that guy!'
Naruto clenched his fist tightly.
And this time, Kakashi glanced at the bushes.
"Do you want to continue! Little Sakura!"
And little Sakura, who had been hiding in the bushes, came out silently.
Her face was a little pale; she knew that she would not be able to snatch the bell from Kakashi.
Even if Sasuke lost, how could she win!
It was just that little Sakura felt that such a test was unfair.
"Teacher! There is no way we can defeat you, and we can't take the bell away!"
"Are you deliberately trying to prevent us from passing!"
Little Sakura said.
Kakashi smiled.
"I'm not done yet!"
"It's just that the time is almost up. Let's continue after lunch!"
Saying that, Kakashi disappeared instantly.
Leaving the moment when the three of them saw Kakashi disappear.
Sasuke was untied.
And Kakashi only left two bentos.
Naruto, who had fallen from the tree, was not put down.
"Sasuke and little Sakura are doing pretty well, so I'll give you two some food to replenish your energy!"
"Naruto is too stupid. He confronted a ninja who is stronger than himself. I punish you to hang from a tree and reflect on yourself!"
Inside the Hokage office!
Hiruzen was smoking his pipe.
He looked at the three people in the crystal ball.
His eyes locked on Sasuke.
There had been no problem with Kakashi's temptation just now, but what he cared about was that at such a critical juncture...
Sasuke hadn't even used the Lightning Style at that time.
This kind of thinking and restraint was really too deep.
Such a kid was still a member of the Uchiha clan, so it was difficult for him to rest assured.
But Sasuke was Itachi's younger brother; it would have been fine if Sasuke hadn't been so amazing.
Now that he had such an amazing talent, Hiruzen didn't know what to do.
Sasuke's talent made him terrifying.
It even seemed to show another terrible Uchiha rising step by step.
Just like Uchiha Madara once did.
The current Sasuke was probably not inferior to Uchiha Madara.
That gymnastics! At this age, he could do hundreds of tricks with Kakashi.
Coupled with amazing ninjutsu attainments, the two Fire Styles could be retracted freely, which was not at all the level that Genin could achieve.
There was also the eye-catching kunai throwing technique and one-handed mudra.
All kinds of things added up—even the former First Hokage, or the legendary man Uchiha Madara—
At this age, they were probably not as good as Sasuke.
Such uneasy factors, once they grew up, would envelop Konoha... no... the darkness that enveloped the entire ninja world.
The uneasiness in Hiruzen's heart grew stronger.
'Perhaps... giving Sasuke to the Danzo guy... would be... better...'
At that time—
A voice came from the crystal ball.
"Eat it for you! The end of the crane!"
In the scene, the Commander throws his bento to Naruto, who is hanging from a tree.
Naruto took the lunch box and looked at Sasuke in surprise.
"I'm just not hungry and it feels like a waste to lose it!"
Hearing Sasuke's words, Naruto, who had been full of hostility towards Sasuke before, now laughed.
Little Sakura looked at the food in her hand in a daze, "Sasuke-kun, you can eat with me! I can't finish it with such a small appetite!"
Sasuke waved his hand, "No, I'm really not hungry, you guys eat!"
Knowing what kind of trick this was, Sasuke thought in his heart that he would wait to find something delicious. That day's battle with Kakashi had consumed a lot of energy.
Kakashi, who was hiding in the dark at the moment, nodded in satisfaction.
And Hiruzen in the Hokage's office also let out a sigh of relief.
"It seems that my conclusion is still too early. Although he is very talented, he is still a child after all, and he can still be cultivated!"
At that moment, Sasuke didn't know—because of a bento, he had resolved a big crisis within him...
