Chapter 383 Empty Fish Basket

Class 7's strong bell test was very successful.

Naruto showed enough willpower to never back down.

Sasuke bursts out with combat power that is enough to match that of a Genin, and has excellent combat awareness.

Sakura also got her share of food.

"Ah, starting tomorrow, I will take you on a ninja mission. Ninja missions are not just playing house. There are dangers and the possibility of death. Everyone, be prepared."

Kakashi looked at the two boys with satisfaction, said a few words slowly, and disappeared from the training ground.

"Hahaha! So that's how it is. I thought Kakashi-sensei would really kill us~"

Naruto scratched his head and smiled.

"idiot."

Sasuke was not stingy with his praise for Naruto.

"The mission will begin tomorrow. I hope you won't hold Team 7 back."

Sasuke said to Naruto seriously.

Although he also felt that Naruto's strength was okay, this guy was really a bit erratic and didn't seem like a reliable teammate.

"Did you hear that, Naruto? Don't hold Sasuke back!"

Sakura said, hands on her hips.

But Sasuke turned around and looked at Sakura and said, "You too, since he didn't say anything about you, you'd better improve your strength a little bit."

Sakura felt very aggrieved after being confronted by Sasuke, but Sasuke did not understand the girl's thoughts at all and turned away.

"Don't be sad, Sakura, that's just how Sasuke is. How about I treat you to ramen~"

Naruto advised.

"Never!"

Sakura pouted, yelled at Naruto, and ran off.

Naruto shrank back in fear and looked at the two people leaving in confusion.

"Is Ichiraku Ramen not delicious? Seriously, let's go find Yota. I hope Yota didn't skip class today~"

Naruto turned around and put all the unpleasantness behind him, jumping towards Konoha School.

But unfortunately, Yota was still not in Iruka's class.

Seeing Naruto, Iruka pulled Naruto aside and asked Naruto with a little concern.

"Naruto, you know where Yota lives, right? Yesterday an Anbu ninja came and told me that Yota has joined the Root. I thought I should go check on him."

Iruka's worries were not unfounded.

Until Orochimaru came to power, the Root was closely linked to the word darkness. Even now, there is less news about the Root, but mentioning the Root always makes people shudder.

Because of the child's innocence and liveliness, Iruka was worried that such a personality would be unacceptable to the Root and he would eventually be abandoned and disappear.

"Huh? Of course I know, but Yota might not be home at this time~"

"Where will that be?"

"Hmm... I'm not sure. Sometimes he goes to the river to fish for garbage, sometimes..."

"Wait, what do you mean by trash fishing?"

Iruka held out his hand, stopping Naruto from continuing.

Naruto scratched his head and laughed.

"It's just fishing, but I can't catch any fish. I always end up with smelly slippers or something, so it's just like fishing for garbage~"

Iruka nodded.

He secretly blamed himself for not caring enough about his students and that he had no idea that Yu Tai had such interests and hobbies.

"Then let's go look for him at the place where he's fishing...fishing. Naruto, you lead the way."

"okay!"

......

bang bang-

bass--

crackling-

"Hey! Stop it! Stop it! Stop fighting!"

Naruto brought Iruka to the creek where Yota often fished and saw two children of the same age fighting, so he rushed over.

Then, he saw Yota sitting by the river and falling asleep while fishing.

"Hey! Yota! How can you sleep? They're fighting! Won't they hit you?!"

Yota opened his eyes drowsily, looked at Naruto and Iruka who had come over, and greeted them with a smile.

"It's Naruto and Iruka-sensei~ Why are you here?"

Yutai is still too young for this body. If he doesn't go to bed on time, he will still feel tired.

"Yota...are you alright recently? Go back to Konoha School and continue your studies. The teacher won't look down on you. You can slowly practice the Three Body Technique."

Iruka restrained himself and said to Yota.

He was very afraid that the strict graduation system of the ninja school would lead the child astray.

"Ah, Iruka-sensei, it's not about the Three Body Technique. Um, although it can be considered as such, but I have already joined the Root~"

Yota pointed at the two people that Naruto had stopped.

“They are my companions~”

Naruto was stunned when he heard this.

"What did you say? Yota, you're joining the team too!"

"Of course, we are Class 11."

"But your teammates are fighting! That's not very friendly..."

Naruto noticed the two men stopped and approached Yota in distress.

Yota made room for Naruto to sit down.

"I ordered them to fight. They need to get familiar with each other's fighting ability before they can cooperate."

"You're right."

Iruka interrupted.

"But coordination also requires attacking the same target together to be effective. Simply fighting against each other might not be enough to create harmony."

Iruka paid attention to the two boys, Kimimaro and Sai.

One is a handsome boy with white hair, the other is a handsome boy with brown hair, and judging from the physical competition just now, they both seem to be very talented children.

Is this the strength of the Root? They have not received systematic ninja school teaching, but their combat capability is not inferior at all, and is even stronger than that of the students in the ninja school.

Iruka was a little skeptical. Why not ask the Root to come to the Ninja School to teach? Wouldn't this provide better training for the children in the Ninja School?

If Orochimaru knew of this idea, he would definitely kick Iruka.

You let Danzo go to the Ninja School?

Will he lead his students to rebel all over Konoha ten years later?

Naruto reacted at this time and pointed at Yota and said, "But Yota, aren't you also a member of the team? Why don't you have to run in?"

"Ha~"

Yota shrugged.

"Their mission is to protect me. I'm the boss of Team 11. By the way, don't you have any non-combatants in Team 7?"

"Sakura?"

Naruto's first reaction was Sakura, because Sakura's fighting ability was indeed... not very high.

"Well, every team must have some weaknesses. I can disguise them as weaknesses, and the enemy will let down their guard~"

Iruka twitched his lips.

What kind of incredible train of thought is this? It's disguised as a flaw. He can't even practice the Three Body Technique. I'm afraid Yu Tai is the real flaw!

"Teacher Iruka, don't worry, Danzo-sama is quite nice to me. Let's go back~"

With that, Yota put away his fishing rod, waved to Naruto and Iruka, and left with Kimimaro.

Naruto and Iruka looked at each other, both a little stunned.

Iruka felt that it might not be that easy for Yota to join the Root, but he had no way to stop it or change it.

Naruto saw that the fish basket by the river was empty.

The fish basket has been here for over half a year and nothing has ever been put in it...
