Naruto And Sasuke Battle

That evening, Naruto untied the ropes and ended Teacher Jiu's weight-bearing training. After dragging six to seven hundred kilograms of weight for the entire afternoon, he still had a mess to clean up.

Looking around at the destruction, Naruto sighed. If only he had mastered the Shadow Clone Technique, cleaning up would have been a breeze.

After a short rest, Naruto used the space door to return to the classroom. Hinata was the only one left. Seeing Naruto arrive, she looked both excited and nervous.

"Naruto-kun…" Hinata started, but before she could finish, Naruto gently took her hand and pulled her through the space door.

They reappeared outdoors, surrounded by broken trees, gravel, and scattered debris. Hinata looked around, admiring Naruto's dedication.

"Naruto, you worked so hard," she said with admiration. "I... I will also work hard to practice!"

Naruto smiled, feeling touched by her encouragement. He noticed Hinata's shyness and quickly let go of her hand.

"Hahaha… actually, it's okay. It's just part of the training," he said, trying to downplay his efforts.

As Naruto was about to say more, he saw a familiar figure approaching. It was Sasuke, identifiable by his Uchiha clan's signature hairstyle. Sasuke looked serious, holding a paper bag.

Hinata glanced between Sasuke and Naruto, feeling a pang of disappointment. She had hoped for a more personal moment with Naruto.

Sasuke walked up to Naruto and, without waiting for a response, shoved the paper bag into his hands.

"For you," Sasuke said.

Naruto looked inside the bag and found apples. Was Sasuke giving him a gift?

"I couldn't find any golden apples in the village," Sasuke added, his tone slightly defensive.

Naruto grinned and took out an apple, handing one to Hinata and tossing another to Sasuke. He kept one for himself and took a bite.

Sasuke, not one to fuss over details, started eating his apple. Naruto, although he had received better things from his system, felt happy to get a gift from Sasuke. It was a first for him.

As they ate, Naruto noticed Sasuke seemed hesitant.

"You came to me... what's up?" Naruto asked, not as confrontational as before.

Sasuke looked serious. "Uzumaki Naruto, let's fight again."

Naruto was taken aback. "Huh?"

Sasuke's request was surprising. Naruto had previously beaten Sasuke badly, and now Sasuke wanted another round?

Hinata looked curiously at both boys, wondering about their past fights.

"Are you serious?" Naruto asked, noticing Sasuke's sincere expression.

"Yes!" Sasuke confirmed. "I want to see the gap between us."

"Alright," Naruto agreed. He quickly finished his apple, dusted off his pants, and stood up. The two moved to an open space and faced each other.

Since the night of the massacre, Sasuke had been training hard to overcome his weaknesses. Among his peers, Naruto was considered the strongest.

The two opponents formed the seals of opposition. Sasuke activated his Sharingan, showing one magatama in each eye.

Naruto saw the Sharingan and, realizing the potential danger, put on his sunglasses. He had figured out that looking directly at the Sharingan wasn't a good idea.

"Big Fox, help me out here!" Naruto called out to Kurama, who, though uninterested, was ready to assist.

Sasuke was momentarily stunned by Naruto's sunglasses. The Genjutsu he tried had no effect.

"Are sunglasses effective against Genjutsu?" Sasuke wondered, feeling puzzled.

Sasuke quickly adapted and started throwing shurikens and kunai. Naruto heard the sound of projectiles and knew he needed to act.

Instead of using the big iron door as before, Naruto deployed three space gates. A purple light cocoon enveloped him, absorbing all the thrown ninja tools.

Hinata and Sasuke watched in surprise.

"So… so awesome!" Hinata exclaimed, amazed by Naruto's ability.

Sasuke's eyes widened as he realized the gravity of the situation. Naruto's skills were impressive, and the fight was about to get even more intense.
