"Tch, when it comes to fighting, strength is what matters!"
With a loud shout, Naruto abruptly straightened up and strode forward.
He'd shouted with such confidence that even flames seemed to flicker in his bright blue eyes.
He stared straight at the little boy across from him.
More precisely, he glared at the tattoo on the boy's forehead and continued to shout:
"Don't think I'll let you off just because you've got 'love' tattooed on your forehead!"

Sand Binding Burial!

In an instant, the layer of sand wrapped around Sasuke began to squeeze again, producing a sound that made everyone's scalp
