After three days of travel, the six of them finally returned to Konoha!
With Narak's own speed, he could have returned long ago. But getting back early would only mean being sent out by the Third Hokage to carry out another mission!
Since Narak wanted to slack off, he simply traveled back to Konoha at a leisurely pace with Kakashi and the others!
Besides, his intelligence had already been brought back to Konoha by the others. Apart from returning to give a report, Narak had nothing else to do at the moment!
As for Naruto and the other two, they had been extremely uncomfortable at first after learning of Narak's ruthlessness in the shinobi world that day!
That day, the three of them tried their best to keep their distance from Narak!
But starting the next day, Naruto returned to his usual boisterous self and followed behind Narak, calling him "Brother Narak" this and "Brother Narak" that!
Sasuke also returned to his usual aloof demeanor, but his gaze toward Narak was filled with longing!
Narak understood it clearly. That was a longing for power!
Sasuke imagined that if he possessed power like Narak's, perhaps he could kill Itachi and avenge himself!
As for Sakura, after that day, she had begun intentionally or unintentionally distancing herself from Narak. Narak knew that his image in Sakura's heart had completely collapsed!
Sakura could not accept that Narak, who had always been like the big brother next door, was practically a psychopathic murderer in the shinobi world!
Narak merely smiled indifferently at this!
They were still too young, after all. Once Sakura ventured into the shinobi world a few years later, her mindset would probably change!
By then, she would no longer think he was cruel. But even if Sakura continued to distance herself
