When he touched the corner of his clothes, it was the graduation project assigned to him by Kakashi.

On the contrary, if he can't even touch the other party's clothes, he will always be an unqualified 'student' here with Kakashi.

After all, Kakashi has suppressed his own strength to a very low level.

If he can't even do this, he probably won't be able to forgive himself for his incompetence.

If this continues, how can we avenge the sinners who exterminated the clan and revitalize the future of the clan?

Therefore, Sasuke was very calm when he heard the name "Itachi" from Kakashi.

Three or four years ago, once I heard this name, I would never have been able to maintain such a calm state.

"Oh, it seems that the method of stimulating generals is not very effective."

Seeing the clear and bright look in Sasuke's eyes, Kakashi also showed approval in his eyes.

Although Sasuke could not perfectly control his emotions, at least he would not fall into distracting thoughts of revenge.

This is harmful to the training of ninjas but not beneficial at all.

In this world, most ninja training is done step by step, and growth in strength cannot be achieved overnight.

If you are blindly immersed in the vortex of hatred, not only will your personality become extreme, but it will also make people blind and lose their original calmness.

This situation is very unfavorable for future revenge actions.

"..."

Sasuke looked at Kakashi speechlessly.

He had been using this stimulating method for three or four years, and even if it didn't work at first, after years of training day and night, he had already become accustomed to Kakashi's stimulating method.

Unless Itachi himself appears directly in front of him, it may cause him to lose control.

But using Itachi to verbally provoke him was of little use to him.

Although in order to achieve this, he suffered hundreds of nights before he could barely break free from the nightmare of genocide.

From this point of view, he was very grateful to Kakashi and the Hokage for asking Kakashi to teach him.

Without these two people, I would still be struggling in the whirlpool of hatred and wasting time.

Relying on your own shallow understanding to explore and cultivate is just sitting in a well and looking at the sky.

Lord Hokage is a kind old man. Sasuke's heart is filled with the warmth of being cared for.

However, as his strength grew, new doubts naturally arose in his mind.

A tribesman like myself who has not even awakened the Sharingan has been able to surpass most regular genin before graduating.

So, when we grow up, there are not many clan members with three Magatama Sharingan in the clan, but there should be quite a few.

No matter how strong Itachi is, can he really destroy the entire clan with one person?

It reminds me that Itachi once said that if he could also open the Mangekyo Sharingan, there would be four people.

four people?

Mangekyō Sharingan?

Thinking of this, Sasuke lowered his head, and an extremely rare haze appeared in his eyes.

Perhaps, the Uchiha genocide incident was not as simple as he thought.

In this genocide, there must be some secrets that I accidentally missed.

Because the more he grows, the more Sasuke can feel how powerful the Uchiha clan is.

Such a wealthy ninja clan is definitely not a behemoth that Itachi can defeat alone.

On the night when the Itachi clan was wiped out, there must have been an accomplice.

It is likely that Itachi is not the only traitor to Uchiha.

"What's wrong, you suddenly look serious?"

Realizing that Sasuke's state seemed a little strange, Kakashi asked in confusion.

"It's nothing, I just thought of some things that I missed before. I will solve them myself."

Although he was grateful to Kakashi, Sasuke did not want to involve irrelevant people in his revenge.

Moreover, it is not what he wants to complete his revenge at the hands of others.

The Uchiha clan's affairs will ultimately need to be resolved by those who inherit this surname.

"Really? Well, that's it for today. I still have things to deal with. Regarding the graduation exam in March, there should be no problem, right?"

Kakashi asked this question before leaving.

"That kind of graduation exam is just like child's play."

Sasuke told the truth.

The things usually taught in ninja schools are very basic.

For example, basic physical skills, basic illusion skills, and basic three-body skills.

Therefore, no matter how the graduation examination is conducted, it cannot be separated from these.

For Sasuke, this kind of graduation exam is like playing house with a child. It is not worth mentioning. When the time comes, he can go through the formalities and pass the exam smoothly.

Compared with the graduation exam, his next goal is to master the second change of chakra attributes as soon as possible, which is the thunder escape ninjutsu.

He has been coveting the series of secret ninjutsu such as Chidori and Raikiri that Kakashi spontaneously created.

If he fully understands all those mysteries, Sasuke can be sure that his strength will improve by leaps and bounds.

His foundation has been polished solid enough, what is lacking is just the accumulation of experience and higher-level cultivation methods.

This is what he learned from Kakashi.

It is not advisable to become stronger quickly, as this will put a huge load on the body. Kakashi also seemed to have complained that he practiced too hard when he was a child, and now he suddenly started to suffer from back pain.

However, rather than over-training as a child, Sasuke believed that Kakashi's current back pain was caused by reading too many pornographic books.

A sultry man wearing a mask.

"As long as you have confidence. Then you can practice alone. I'll come back in a few days."

Kakashi nodded and disappeared from Sasuke.

Sasuke didn't pay attention to Kakashi's departure and started practicing alone in the woods.

In the conference room, there were five figures sitting.

They are the Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the root leader Shimura Danzo, the two advisors Koharu and Mito Monobu, and the Jonin squad leader Nara Shikaku.

Due to the invitation of the Kingdom of Demons to hold the joint chunin examination, we gathered together to discuss the matter.

"Joint Chuunin Exams? How do the other villages view this?"

Xiaochun, who had no idea, moved to bed, hoping to learn from other villages' plans.

Although the Joint Chuunin Examination has been held in the past, it was in Konoha as the home venue. This time, the Demon Country took the lead in speaking out, obviously intending to take this opportunity to expand its international influence.

So she was hesitant about it.

"We don't know yet, but other villages are probably discussing this matter now. In the past few years, the overall strength of the Demon Country has been rising rapidly, and even Konoha cannot ignore this. According to my speculation,

It is estimated that there are not a few villages that agree to the joint chunin exam."

Hiruzen pondered for a while before speaking.

This is inevitable.

There is no possibility for the Ninja Village of the Small Country to refuse. Whether it is out of fear or wanting to please the Demon Country, they have to symbolically send Genin to take the Chunin Exam.

And this has formed a trend.

There is no shame in following the trend.

"If we can take this opportunity to test the strength of the new generation of ninjas from the Demon Country, I think this joint chuunin exam is a good opportunity."

Mito Monohan suggested.

He is inclined to participate in the Joint Chunin Examination.

The Kingdom of Demons has always adopted a closed Chunin Examination, and the outside world has only had a vague idea of ​​the strength of the new generation in the Kingdom of Demons.

But no ninja village dared to look down upon him.

In the Demon Country, where Uchiha, Hinata and the Uzumaki clan gathered, even they could not accurately estimate the strength of the new generation.

"As the elder said, I also think this is a good opportunity to test the potential of the Kingdom of Ghosts. If we give up, it will be very difficult to find such an opportunity next time. Speaking of the new generation, I don't think we can

Ye is no worse than the Kingdom of Ghosts. There will be many high-quality students graduating from the Ninja School this year."

Lu Jiu also spoke on the side.

Then, he glanced at Danzo.
