Three-Color Dango and Embarrassing Memories

Sasuke began to have doubts.

My second brother's familiarity with Kakashi-sensei sounded really off.

These two seem to have known each other for a long time.

He was still young then, and had no idea that Wu Chiwu was a prominent figure in Konoha for a time.

There are tons of people who know him.

His second brother has a wide and diverse circle of friends.

Sasuke's mind is now filled with fragmented memories, all of which are dark recollections of his second brother's tricks and schemes against him.

"Let's go, Sasuke, show us around Konoha."

Wu Chiwu's lips curled up, and he smiled brightly.

I wonder if that Three-Color Dango shop in Konoha is still open.

"I really miss it."

"Second brother, why are you still so pathetic, only caring about sweet things?"

Sasuke's tone betrayed a sense of helplessness.

"Your teeth will all be rotten sooner or later."

"Huh? How can someone as handsome as me have a bug like cavities?"

Wu Chiwu shook his head, speaking with absolute certainty.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible."

"Ah, it's so enviable! Their relationship is so good!"

Hozuki Kagetsu tugged at a flower beside her, her voice soft and eerie.

"That doesn't sound quite right."

Bai glanced at the flowers in her hand, which were almost crumpled beyond recognition, and his eyelids drooped.

"What's wrong?"

Hozuki Kagetsu followed his gaze and looked at the flower.

"Haha, I'm just a tiny bit envious, just a tiny bit."

Her guilty tone stripped away all credibility from her words.

She also wanted to be Wu Daren's brother or sister.

That kid's really lucky.

Honestly, I'm so jealous!

She almost became part of the gray background.

Wu Chiwu walked along the familiar street, his eyes scanning the surrounding shops.

It hasn't changed much.

He suddenly stopped walking.

South Street Snack Shop?

"Sasuke, would you like some snacks?"

His eyes lit up instantly when he saw that familiar sign.

"I'll pay!"

These words and the scene immediately brought back a flood of painful memories for Sasuke.

"You can go in; I'll wait by the door."

He shook his head, his tone very serious.

Hozuki Kagetsu and Haku also waved their hands in refusal.

They both lain in the same pit.

Besides, just thinking about the terrifying amount of sugar Wu Chiwu makes my teeth ache.

"Get it."

Wu Chiwu pulled the bandage down further to cover his eyes and strode into the shop.

Hopefully, no one was frightened by his appearance.

Sasuke stared at his retreating figure and muttered something.

m

A considerable amount of time passed.

Wu Chiwu emerged from the South Street Snack Shop, clutching a handful of Three-Color Dango.

The moment I stepped out the door, I realized everyone had vanished.

Sasuke wasn't waiting for him at the door, and Haku and Hozuki Kagetsu were also gone.

Where did those guys go?

Wu Chiwu rested his chin on his hand, looking confused.

A man dressed in black with patterns on his face was carrying a child in one hand, looking quite amused.

"Before the people I hate arrive, I'll have some fun with you first."

"Let go!"

The child struggled and thrashed about desperately.

"You've got quite the energy, you little rascal!"

He tightened his grip on the child's collar, a smirk playing on his lips.

"Damn it!"

Upon seeing this, Naruto clenched his fists instantly and lunged forward.

It was as if a fire was burning in his eyes.

Damn it, that bastard!

Put Konohamaru down!

The man in black glanced at him indifferently, not taking him seriously at all.

Is this the level of Konoha Genin?

That's really weak!

He flicked his right hand lightly, and countless fine threads began to move.

Naruto seemed to be holding something back.

His forward momentum came to an abrupt halt, and he crashed heavily to the ground.

"The Genin of Konoha are pretty useless."

The man in black sighed, bored.

Is this all the ninja in Konoha are capable of right now?

The strongest ninja village, indeed!

Tsk, what a character.

Naruto had fallen to the ground, got up again and glared at the man in black without backing down.

"Hey, if you don't let go, I'll really teach you a lesson, you idiot!"

The blond-haired man seemed to sense his anger and slightly bristled.

"You're the idiot, why are you provoking him?"

Sakura quickly grabbed him, looking helpless.

Looking at the lively Naruto in front of him, the man in black thought of his younger brother Gaara.

It's just as infuriating!

He snapped out of his daze and spoke to Naruto with a veiled meaning.

"I hate little brats the most."

"She's younger than me, but more assertive."

"I really want to crush this kind of trash."

Naruto and Sakura clearly misunderstood.

The two men stared nervously at the man in black.

What exactly is he trying to do?

They wouldn't actually target Konohamaru, would they?

Sigh.

The blonde girl next to the man in black sighed helplessly.

"I don't care about your stuff."

The man in black stared at the child in his arms and coldly uttered a sentence.

"Take care of this brat first, then deal with the one over there."

In the blink of an eye.

"Swish!"

A faint sound of wind breaking came from mid-air.

A stone flew in an arc and struck the man in black precisely on the right arm.

My arm went numb, and all the strength in my fingers vanished.

The child who had been caught fell back to the ground.

Everyone around turned to look in the direction from which the pebble had come.

Sasuke leaned against a large tree, tossing a pebble up and down with his left hand.

"What are you doing messing around in someone else's village?"

"Get out of here!"

He glanced at everyone and slowly released his left hand.

The pebble in my palm shattered into powder in the blink of an eye and drifted away with the wind.

Wu Chiwu in the tree, witnessed the entire scene clearly and silently praised it in his heart.

Okay, that's pretty cool.

I was wondering why all of you had run away.

So everyone's come here to watch the show!

He not only saw Sasuke, who had just made his move, but also Hozuki and the others who were watching the Hozuki from the sidelines, and there was another guy...

The man in black glared at Sasuke, who had ruined his plans in the tree, and his face immediately turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Hey, get down here, you little brat."

"I hate people like you who are all talk and no action."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The man in black unloaded what he was carrying from his back and stuck it on the ground.

"Hey, are you going to use the Crow?"

His actions immediately alerted the girl next to him.

"Kankuro, stop right there!"

"A disgrace to the village."

The two were arguing when a voice suddenly rang out.

The boy with the gourd slung across his shoulder was hanging upside down from the tree trunk that Sasuke had just leaned against.

Everyone else stared at his bizarre entrance with surprise in their eyes.

"I, Gaara!"

Kankuro's expression panicked for a moment, then he fell silent.

Sasuke's face darkened, and his gaze sharpened.

When did this guy touch the guy next to me?

"Just like Kakashi, ridiculously fast."
