Although the two countries are in the ninja world at the same time, the lives of their respective citizens are different by an era.

The people here are brightly dressed, full of energy, and their eyes are full of a strong and firm will. It seems that from their eyes, you can see that everything is changing and starting to change towards the beauty they insist on in their hearts.

This kind of scene cannot even be compared to Konoha Village.

Not to mention the rest of the Fire Nation.

Sasuke, who had gone out on many C-level missions, knew with his own eyes that civilians in many areas of the Fire Country lived extremely difficult and simple lives.

Although this is not bad, but... the Fire Nation should be able to do better instead of settling for the status quo.

"If you want to change, you can only rely on the joint efforts of more people. Because the power of one person is limited after all."

Kakashi seemed to be aware of some of Sasuke's thoughts and said.

Sasuke nodded, not worrying too much about this matter.

He is just an ordinary genin. Even if he has different ideas, he can only remain silent now and cannot make his voice heard in the village or even in the country.

As for your responsibilities, you just need to be a good genin for the time being, instead of aiming too high and taking on responsibilities that are not yours to bear.

"The three of you will go shopping together next."

Kakashi said suddenly.

"Eh? Kakashi-sensei, don't you come with us?"

Sakura turned her head in surprise.

Kakashi said embarrassedly: "Sorry, I have something to deal with here."

"But, the preliminaries are over, right? The other team's coaching jonins don't have any missions either."

Sakura thought there was another problem in the exam.

"It has nothing to do with that, it's some personal matters of mine. In short, the three of you should not play too late and go back to rest before eleven o'clock. In addition, I paid for your ramen."

Kakashi took out his wallet from his pocket and took out three ten thousand ryo bills.

"It's too much."

Sakura was a little afraid to accept it.

Anyway, spending 30,000 taels for three servings of ramen is a bit wasteful.

"You can spend the extra money on your own. Just consider it as compensation for my inability to accompany you tonight."

Kakashi said this, and Sakura had no choice but to take the thirty thousand taels of banknotes from Kakashi's hand.

Later, Sakura asked curiously: "But what personal matters does Kakashi-sensei have to deal with?"

Kakashi narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Secret."

With that said, Kakashi turned around and left, quickly disappearing from the crowd without a trace.

"Really, Kakashi-sensei is always mysterious. Tomorrow is a rare opportunity for a gathering."

Naruto was unhappy.

"After all, it's a private matter and there's nothing we can do about it. Just spare Kakashi-sensei this time, Naruto."

Sakura comforted Naruto not to be angry.

"What a personal matter. I think it's probably because he went to buy unhealthy books behind our backs, like that one called "Intimate Love in Paradise."

Naruto guessed maliciously.

"impossible?"

Sakura was a little unbelievable.

"It must be so."

Naruto thought to himself and concluded with the coffin, and said matter-of-factly.

Sasuke ignored the argument between the two, stared at the direction Kakashi was leaving, and began to guess: Private matter? Are you going to see someone, so it's not convenient to take us there?

The guess was fruitless, and Sasuke stopped thinking about it. Since it was a private matter, Kakashi definitely didn't want others to disturb him.

As for what Naruto said about going behind their backs to buy "Intimate Paradise", it was definitely just a figment of his head and there was no real evidence.

Moreover, if you are buying "Intimate Paradise", there is no reason to go behind their backs and buy it alone. Anyway, the impression of bad teachers has been deeply rooted in people's hearts.

"Now that Kakashi is gone, let the three of us act together. By the way, I also want to go to the ninja shop here to update the equipment."

"A ninja tool shop? You really need to update the ninja tools in your bag. During the second exam, many kunai and shurikens were damaged."

Sakura nodded in agreement.

"What I said is fine."

Naruto doesn't need to worry about this problem.

He rarely used kunai and shuriken against his enemies, so the kunai and shuriken in his ninja bag were not particularly worn and were enough to be used in the finals.

Just when Naruto and the three were about to leave, a voice suddenly came:

"You are...Naruto."

It seemed like a question, but it was an affirmative word, and the tone was full of a hint of joy.

"Huh?"

Naruto turned around in surprise and saw a strange combination of a man, a woman, and a dog.

The man has white hair and is wearing pure white clothes. His pupils are like the color of snowfields, lacking the breath of a living person.

He is shorter than Naruto, has a baby face, and is very cute and childish.

He was carrying a long-handled object that was much taller than the others on his back, and it was wrapped with a white bandage depicting eyeballs, making it impossible to see his true appearance.

Next to him, there was a girl wearing a red and white miko uniform. She was about fifteen or sixteen years old. She had long straight black hair and a face that lacked emotion, giving her an aloof indifference that would keep strangers away.

On the shoulders of the girl in the miko uniform stood a... let's just say it was a four-legged creature like a dog or a cat.

His whole body was pitch black, with a single horn growing out of his forehead. His eyes were extremely bright, as if they had been washed with water, making them so clean and translucent.

"Uh, who are you?"

Naruto looked at the white-haired boy's face. Although he felt that he looked familiar, as if he had met him somewhere before, he couldn't remember who he was or where he had seen him before, so Naruto was stunned for a moment.

"Don't you remember me? I am a child. We met in the Land of Waves a few months ago."

The white-haired boy ran up to Naruto like a child and said his name happily.

"The Country of Waves? Nako..."

Naruto tried to remember something, and then he remembered something, opened his mouth wide, and could not close it for a long time.

"Chi, Chi Zi!?"

The expression of surprise was enough to describe Naruto's shock at this moment, and he shouted directly.

Looking at the white-haired boy in front of him who was even smaller than him, Naruto couldn't connect him closely with the handsome white-haired boy he saw in the Land of Waves.

These two people are not the same person no matter how you look at them.
