Uchiha Sasuke: The Rise of a Hidden Genius

"Zhao...Zhao Shu..."

"I didn't think that you...you actually..."

Naruto, who was hanging upside down from the tree, could no longer hold back his tears, which were now flowing unstoppably.

So much so, that most of his tears were about to fall into his lunch box.

The sight of him sniffling and snorting made Sasuke and Sakura feel a little sick.

But at that moment, Kakashi suddenly appeared.

"Congratulations! You've passed!"

Naruto in the tree froze for a moment!

What?

What did that white-haired guy just say?

Passed? How did they pass?

What the hell!

Kakashi let Naruto down.

After landing, Naruto seemed to want to ask what that meant.

But the next second, Kakashi started to speak directly.

"A team must be united and know how to work together to better accomplish the task!"

"Simply relying on the strength of one person will reach its limits!"

"It's like trying to take the bell from me. Individually, none of you could do it!"

"But if you work together, there's still a chance!"

"This test is to see if you understand teamwork!"

"From what you just did, I can see that you have a preliminary understanding of the idea of sacrificing for your comrades!"

"Very good! So I judge you to have passed!"

With all this high-sounding rhetoric, all Sasuke could say was that it was all a bluff!

Cooperation?

That's just an excuse that the weak use for their failure.

Do really strong people have to cooperate?

But there's no need to say that now.

"I see!"

Naruto looked at the bento in his hands and then at Sasuke.

If he and Sasuke had worked together, they would have had a real chance to steal the bell from Kakashi.

Sasuke was very strong, and even though Naruto knew he was no match for Sasuke, he could have delayed Kakashi.

All he had to do was to create an opportunity, and then with Sasuke's strength, he would definitely be able to snatch the bell.

Unfortunately, he didn't do that right now!

Sakura beside him seemed to understand this as well.

Kakashi looked at the three of them and said, "Alright! Since you understand, as of today, our 7th grade is officially established!"

Naruto and Sakura both laughed from the bottom of their hearts when they heard this.

But Sasuke still looked calm.

Seeing this, Kakashi and Hinata, who were watching Sasuke closely in front of the crystal ball, couldn't help but frown.

They can't even form a team to cheer Sasuke up!

But in the next second, Sasuke's mouth lifted slightly.

A smile appeared that was not easy to detect.

And seeing that,

Hinata also smiled.

"A proud brat... even trying to hide your smile!"

But thinking back to Sasuke's life in the same year, it was also very difficult.

It is inevitable to develop such a personality!

But it's not really good to be cold and ruthless.

After all, he is still young and he can change slowly!

This is what both Kakashi and Hinata think, but what they don't know is that

The reason that made Sasuke laugh was not the formation of the 7th Form.

If he could, he definitely wouldn't want to join the 7th grade.

The reason that made Sasuke laugh was...

[Congratulations, host, you have successfully passed the placement test.

"has officially become a Shinobi of the Ninja Squad"

"and received an encouragement award: a level-up in ninjutsu mastery."

Unexpectedly, Kakashi's test gave the system an encouragement award.

This is an unexpected win!

Sasuke now really wants Kakashi to give him another test.

Of course, this request is definitely unrealistic.

"Level up in Ninjutsu mastery!"

"Can I level up the ninjutsu I already know!

For example, from beginner to advanced!

This encouragement price is not bad.

Although Sasuke feels that with his talent, it is not difficult to improve his ninjutsu mastery level.

But the situation is different now.

If he stays with this Naruto, it is inevitable that the Sunagakure will 'look'.

It is not unlikely that the Sunagakure will secretly pay attention to him.

Therefore, Sasuke must also go outside of Konoha to practice ninjutsu to be safe.

At the same time, becoming a shinobi and entering the 7th class requires daily missions.

Of course, there is not so much time to practice ninjutsu.

Under these circumstances, this reward is really good for Sasuke.

While Sasuke was secretly smiling, Sakura and Naruto noticed that Sasuke's smile was becoming more and more obvious.

Sakura said, "Sasuke-kun's smile is very warm!"

Naruto, who was rarely jealous, nodded and said, "Not bad, it's not a bad smile. If that's the case, why do you always have a serious face? It's good to smile more!"

The sound of the two people's words also brought Sasuke back to reality.

Sasuke has no time to chat with these people right now.

"It just so happens that today is the first day of our seventh grade class, how about I treat you to ramen?"

Team building is inevitable if you want to lead a good team.

As soon as Kakashi finished speaking, Sasuke immediately wiped away his smile as if he were shy.

He waved his hand and said, "I'm not going! I have to practice!"

Without giving Kakashi and the others a chance to answer, he quickly left without another word.

Kakashi, meanwhile, smiled helplessly as he shouted in Sasuke's direction, "Gather at 6:00 tomorrow morning to go on a mission, don't forget!"

Kakashi could understand Sasuke's flighty reaction.

A child who has been lonely for a long time, when accepted by others, the first reaction is to be happy and good, but at the same time, a little resistance will arise.

This boy, Sasuke, is so arrogant.

He was obviously very happy, but he didn't want to say it.

He didn't want to show it either, and he didn't even dare to eat with them.

"Old Sasuke must have been very lonely!"

"But it's okay, it will get better in the future!"

Lonely?

If Sasuke knew that Kakashi thought that, he would just be speechless.

He was not lonely at all!

He just wanted to rush back immediately to collect the reward from the system.

That's not what Kakashi thinks at all.

Regardless of what Kakashi thinks, even Hinata has decided that Sasuke is a long-term lonely, very arrogant kid.

So there is still hope that he can be properly reformed and allowed to inherit the Will of Fire.

And of course, this matter must also be handed over to Kakashi for completion.

Even though Sasuke is a member of the Uchiha Clan, the Uchiha Clan is left with only Sasuke, and if he is properly trained, he may become a stalwart defender of Konoha in the future.
