When Shao Nan and the others arrived at the foot of Mount Sumeru,
they found a group of Konoha Anbu, but Asuma, who was leading them, was nowhere to be seen.
After Kakashi stepped forward to ask about it,
he learned that Asuma had gone up the mountain alone before the agreed time.
He had left these Anbu behind to support him.
"Shao Nan, delays could bring unexpected changes. We need to pick up the pace."
With that said,
Kakashi led the Anbu up the mountain first.
"Uchiha Sasuke, Naruto, once you get up there, have a little spar with Hiruko.
But don't kill him. Let me finish him off with the final blow!"
Hiruko was tied to the mission issued by the system.
It did not matter who fought Hiruko. As long as Shao Nan got the kill, that was enough.
"Big brother, leave it to me. I won't let a single person with ill intentions toward Konoha get away."
After saying that, Naruto tried to sling an arm over Uchiha Sasuke's shoulders again.
But once more, Naruto got smacked on the head by Uchiha Sasuke.
"You idiot, don't put your arm around me."
Shao Nan truly did not know why Naruto liked putting his arm around Uchiha Sasuke's shoulders so much.
Could Naruto have noticed Uchiha Sasuke's problem?
Probably not. Naruto still seemed as clueless as ever.
Walking ahead, Uchiha Sasuke said, "Boss, let's catch up too!"
The scene shifted, and everyone had already arrived before the palace at the mountaintop.
Shao Nan immediately turned and covered Uchiha Sasuke's eyes behind him.
"Don't open your eyes without my permission!"
Uchiha Sasuke had just come up and had no idea what was happening before his eyes were covered, but he still nodded at Shao Nan.
