Naruto was brought back to reality by Sasuke's voice. He was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Sasuke, have you ever thought about why you are alive? For power, money, love, or revenge?" Naruto's question

Sasuke's expression changed slightly, he seemed to have guessed Naruto's intention.

Naruto continued: "I also had a goal before, and that was to become Hokage. Because at that time, I thought that as long as I became Hokage, people in the village would recognize me. Of course, now I still hope to be recognized by others.

, but this desire is no longer so strong." At this point, Naruto sighed secretly, but he did not say these words.

"But now, I will no longer use pranks to attract everyone's attention," Naruto continued, "because I found that it is enough for people to just be themselves. As long as they don't regret it, they will really

That's enough. Now, I just want to live a happy and free life, which is very satisfying."

Naruto looked at Sasuke's thoughtful look and continued: "Do you still remember what you said when we first introduced ourselves? I don't know who you want to kill, but I want to know more about how you revive Uchi.

Do the Bo family grow slowly on their own, or with the help of external forces? Also, I also want to know, after you kill the person you want to kill, what do you want to do? And you

What will you get?"

Sasuke's body trembled, obviously deeply touched by Naruto's words. He raised his head, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes. He was silent for a moment, seemingly sorting out his thoughts.

"I...I have indeed thought about these issues." Sasuke spoke slowly, with a hint of trembling in his voice, "I once thought that reviving the Uchiha family was the whole meaning of my life. I wanted to use my own power to make Uchiha

The name shines brightly in the village again. However, your question made me realize that maybe I haven't really thought about what I want."

Naruto listened quietly, knowing that Sasuke was going through a spiritual baptism. He did not interrupt Sasuke, but stayed with him silently, giving him support and encouragement.

"What can I get after killing the person I want to kill?" Sasuke repeated Naruto's question to himself, "Is it the satisfaction of revenge? Or is it emptiness and loss? I...

I have no idea."

Sasuke's eyes gradually became confused, and he seemed to have fallen into deeper thinking. Naruto continued to remain silent, knowing that this was an important moment for Sasuke's growth, and he could not disturb him.

After a long time, Sasuke finally raised his head, his eyes becoming firm and bright: "Thank you, Naruto. You made me realize how confused and blind I have always been. From now on, I will re-examine myself.

Life and purpose, find what you really want to pursue.”

Hearing Sasuke's words, Naruto smiled happily. He knew that his words had a positive impact on Sasuke, which made him feel very happy and satisfied. The two looked at each other and smiled, as if all the barriers and misunderstandings were at this moment.

The smoke disappeared.

"Ha, but these are none of my business. I just say whatever I want, and you can just listen to it!" Naruto laughed easily, trying to ease the tense atmosphere just now. He looked at Sasuke, with a flash in his eyes.

A hint of mixed emotions.

Sasuke stared at Naruto silently, and there seemed to be many unspoken words hidden in his deep eyes. He said calmly: "I will think about what you said."

When Naruto heard this, he said nothing more. He murmured to himself: "I hope you can really understand. I really don't want to chase you back at all, but I quite like Sakura. If Sasuke leaves,

Yes, Sakura will definitely go after Sasuke, so should I help or not?" Naruto's thoughts were a little far away, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

At this moment, Mitarashi Anko's voice broke the silence: "Listen to me now." There was a seriousness and unquestionability in her voice. The candidates all turned their eyes to her, waiting for her next words.

.

Mitarashi Anko took out a stack of paper from her arms. There was something densely written on the paper. Although the writing was dense, Naruto could still see the three clear words on it at a glance - "Consent Form". I believe that anyone with good eyesight can see it.

visible.

Mitarashi Anko patted the consent form in her hand and explained: "This is the consent form. Those who take the exam must first sign it."

The candidates looked at each other with doubts on their faces. Someone asked: "Why?"

Mitarashi Anko smiled and explained: "Someone may die in this exam, so I need to get your consent first, otherwise I will be responsible. Haha..." Her laughter echoed in the forest.

, which makes people feel creepy.

After hearing Mitarashi Anko's words, Naruto couldn't help but wonder. He thought to himself: "Is there such an examiner? Doesn't this mean that he can kill his opponents during battle? It's really... powerful." Although in his heart

He was a little dissatisfied and helpless, but he also knew that this was the only way to become an excellent ninja.

The candidates also showed different expressions. Some showed fear, while others showed firmness and determination. But it can be seen that everyone knows the potential meaning of this consent form. This is not just a simple consent.
