Sasuke the Invincible - Chapter23

The quiet night slipped by quickly.

When the sky was just bright on the second day, with a creak, the tall and thick village gate of Wood Leaf Village opened.

Then, Kakashi, Naruto, Haruno Sakura, Sasuke, and Uncle Qian Wei appeared at the door.

"Okay, let's go!"

The moment they walked out of the village gate, Naruto shouted excitedly.

"What are you excited about!"

Seeing Naruto's excitement, Haruno Sakura said speechlessly.

Naruto looked around and said excitedly, "Because I have never left the village since I was a child."

"It takes a day to travel from here to the border. Let's hurry up."

Not caring about Naruto's excitement, Kakashi said lightly and then walked forward.

Sasuke, Haruno Sakura, and Uncle Qian Wei quickly followed.

"Hey, wait for me!"

Kakashi's words just now, the careless Naruto didn't hear it. When everyone else had gone far, Naruto, who was looking around, found that he was alone, so he shouted and hurried to catch up.

"Uncle Qian Wei, as a grilled fish master, your grilled fish must be delicious!"

Walking on the road, Haruno Sakura felt bored, so she asked softly.

"No matter how it tastes, others have to evaluate it. My own evaluation is meaningless."

Uncle Qian Wei smiled at Haruno Sakura.

Feeling that Qian Wei's words were quite reasonable, Sasuke also joined the chat and asked softly. "It is said that the Waterfall Country is composed of many waterfalls. Uncle Qian Wei, do you also live in the waterfall?"

"Well, the waterfall is just a barrier. Across the waterfall is our village."

Nodding, Qian Wei smiled.

"Wow, there is such a magical place. When we get to the Waterfall Country, Uncle will take us to see it!"

Haruno Sakura, who was listening, was looking forward to it.

"No problem, as long as you have time, you can stay at my house for a few more days. I can take you to play and have a lot of delicious food for you to taste."

Qian Wei was a very enthusiastic person, so he responded.

"There is delicious food?

That's great!

If only we could get to Uncle Qian Wei's house earlier … "

Hearing that there would be delicious food, Naruto couldn't help but feel excited.

"Naruto, you're a glutton!"

Haruno Sakura said with disdain.

However, the other personality in Sakura Haruno's mind was just like Naruto, laughing excitedly and looking forward to eating delicious food as soon as possible.

"Haha, there's no need to rush. There will definitely be delicious food."

Staring at the impatient Naruto, Uncle Qian Wei smiled.

Pleasant communication can make strangers become close. After chatting for a while, Naruto and others learned a lot about Uncle Qian Wei, and there were more and more laughter on the road.

…

Kakashi and the others walked on the road for the whole morning. Everything was calm, and no accidents happened.

Seeing that it was time for lunch, Kakashi chose a place to stop.

"Everyone can eat some of the prepared food. After eating, we'll continue on our way."

Glancing at Sasuke and the others behind him, Kakashi said softly.

The forward footsteps paused slightly, and Sasuke and others stopped at the same time.

Sitting on the ground, Sasuke slowly exhaled, and when he was about to take out the lunchbox to enjoy, he heard Naruto's complaint.

"It's cold, it's not delicious at all!"

Naruto's lunchbox was packed Ichiraku Ramen, but after a few hours, no matter how delicious the noodles were, the taste would have deteriorated.

"Naruto, you're really troublesome!"

Haruno Sakura immediately got angry at Naruto. She could barely eat her lunchbox, but after hearing Naruto's words, Haruno Sakura lost her appetite.

"If you want to be a good ninja, you have to overcome all problems during the mission. It's very good that you can carry a lunchbox now. In the World War, I ate a few weeks of soldier food pills."

Looking at the moody Naruto, Kakashi persuaded.

"Humph!"

Unable to listen to Kakashi's words, Naruto turned his head and snorted coldly.

"Naruto!"

Seeing Naruto being so unreasonable, Haruno Sakura shouted and immediately wanted to beat him up.

"Naruto, eat something first. Let's see if we can find a river on the road. Then we'll catch some fish. I'll make grilled fish for you to eat in the evening."

At this moment, Uncle Qian Wei smiled at Naruto.

"Really?"

Thinking of having grilled fish to eat in the evening, Naruto's saliva almost flowed down.

"Of course, it's true. Look at these conditions on my shoulders. As long as I can catch a few live fish, I can start right away."

Qian Wei smiled and said with certainty.

"That's great!"

Naruto's eyes lit up fiercely, and hurriedly said: "Kakashi-sensei, let's go after eating!"

In order to eat delicious grilled fish as soon as possible, after that, Naruto didn't care whether the ramen was delicious or not and directly gobbled it up.

"I really don't know what to do with him!"

Hearing this, Kakashi shook his head helplessly.

It had to be said that Kakashi and others were very lucky. After lunch, they walked for a few hours and really found a medium-sized river.

Maybe because there were no villagers around, there were a lot of fish in the river. The excited Naruto, with the help of Qian Wei and Sasuke, caught more than a dozen big fish in a short time.

After catching the fish, at Naruto's strong request, Kakashi had to find a more suitable place to camp and prepare to stay for the night.

… …

The night finally came quietly. Under the curtain of night, the visibility of the camp became very low. Even with the illumination of the fire, it was still limited to a certain range.

On the camp, there was a crackling sound made by the sputtering flames from the fire rack, and the smell of grilled fish greeted the nostrils.

"Uncle Qian Wei, is the fish ready?"

Looking at the fish on the fire rack, Naruto, who was around the fire rack, said with green eyes.

"Don't worry, it's the last step!"

Uncle Qian Wei was worthy of being a grilled fish master. In order to pursue the best taste of grilled fish, he still carefully put the seasoning regardless of the temperature of the flame.

"It's ready to eat!"

Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Uncle Qian Wei took out three grilled fish and put them in the hands of Kakashi and others in turn, and then chuckled.

Tearing off a small piece of fish, Sasuke chewed and swallowed slowly, savoring the taste of the grilled fish.

"Wow, it's delicious!"

Compared with others, Naruto ate quickly, tearing off the last piece of fish, Naruto shouted excitedly.

"Uncle Qian Wei, you're amazing, the grilled fish is delicious!"

Sakura Haruno, who only ate a few bites, immediately praised.

"It's really good!"

Giving a thumbs up to Qian Wei, Kakashi was very satisfied with the taste of the grilled fish.

In fact, Kakashi had grilled fish before when he was doing tasks outside, but the taste was far worse than this.

"It seems that we have a good meal along the way."

Sasuke also liked the taste of the grilled fish, and then smiled slightly.

"Haha, eat more if you like."

Seeing Kakashi and others eating so happily, Qian Wei responded with a laugh.

However, in the midst of the laughter, an imperceptible gloominess flashed in the corner of Qian Wei's eyes.

Maybe because they were eating grilled fish, Kakashi, Sasuke, and others didn't notice it in the end.
