Uchiha Sasuke: The Rise of a Hidden Genius

Sasuke looked at the ninja in front of Kakashi.

Who is this person?

Sasuke really wanted to find out the identity of the other party.

After all, this was someone who had never appeared in the original book. Who could he be?

But now, Little Sakura's situation was more serious.

It was a real problem if they didn't know how to treat her.

At this time, Naruto had already hugged Little Sakura.

"Sasuke, let's go!"

Naruto's eyes were fixed on Little Sakura.

Sasuke thought for a moment.

"Go east, cross the border of the Land of Waves, and return to the Land of Fire!"

"I remember there's a Konoha town somewhere around there!"

"With the ninja troops stationed there, we should be able to find ninjas who understand medical treatment!"

"East!"

Naruto glanced in that direction.

However, there was one concern.

"How far… are we still in time?"

Sasuke thought about it carefully.

"If we can get there within half an hour, we should be able to save her."

Naruto frowned.

Half an hour!

Could they really make it there in time?

Sasuke regretted it now.

If he hadn't consumed so much Chakra earlier and rushed with lightning, maybe they could have made it.

But at this moment, Naruto exhaled deeply.

"Leave it to me, Sasuke!"

"I can definitely get there!"

Sasuke froze for a moment.

"What do you mean..."

Naruto smiled.

"Leave it to me to take care of Little Sakura, but Mr. Dazna was taken away!"

"Since we've accepted this mission, we can't just give up on Mr. Dazna!"

"I'm counting on you over there!"

With that, Naruto ran east without looking back!

Sasuke didn't want to save Dazna at all.

If he really wanted to save Dazna, it would be better to stay here and help Kakashi deal with the person in front of them.

[Please ensure the safety of Dazna, the first mission must not fail.]

[Complete to receive a Genin gift bag.]

At this point, the system intervened and even issued a task.

Sasuke exhaled deeply.

If this is the case, then Dazna still needs to be saved.

After all, this is the first time out of the village to perform a mission.

If it fails like this, it will have a greater impact on the future plot.

Changing the plot is actually not something Sasuke wants to see.

Because Sasuke, who could have known the future, once changed too much of the plot.

If things happen differently in the future, then the plot advantage he has will be lost.

'Huff!

That ninja is fast, I hope I can catch up!'

Sasuke checked the amount of Chakra left in his body.

The battle with Zabuza had consumed almost all of it—nine-tenths gone.

Then, using Lightning Style Shadow Clone, Sasuke's Chakra should have been nearly exhausted.

But now, Sasuke felt that about one-third of his Chakra had recovered.

The more Chakra he expends, the faster the recovery speed.

But once part of it is restored, the recovery speed slows down.

One-third of Chakra means Sasuke can barely maintain it for a few minutes if he uses a Flash Fire technique.

That should be enough to catch up with the guy who took Dazna away.

'Lightning Style~ Super Speed. Flash!'

Crackle!

Lightning erupted from Sasuke.

Immediately, he sped off toward the direction of the enemy.

In an instant, a flash of lightning streaked through the forest and disappeared.

Kakashi, who stayed behind, was taken aback for a moment.

'Is this trying to save Dazna?'

'Don't be reckless, Sasuke...'

Even Hatake Kakashi would be punished for mission failure.

Didn't his father encounter a similar fate because of a mission failure?

Now Kakashi faces the same dilemma—choosing between a companion and completing the mission.

It's a tough decision.

But both Naruto and Sasuke obviously want to save Dazna.

Zizizi!

Lightning flashed continuously through the forest.

Sasuke quickly chased after the guy who took Dazna.

He activated his Sharingan, quickly catching the traces left by the opponent's movement in the forest.

Without the Sharingan, Sasuke likely wouldn't have been able to track the enemy just from the flashes.

But a few minutes later, Sasuke's Chakra ran out again.

The moment the flash faded, Sasuke was still in motion, pushing forward.

At the same time, the Chakra in his body was recovering rapidly.

In just a few minutes, a third of his Chakra had been restored again.

The lightning flash started once more.

Zizizi!

Crackle!

Meanwhile, a ninja stood in an open space somewhere in the distant forest.

Dazna, still unconscious, was casually thrown under a tree.

Through a unique perspective, the ninja was observing Sasuke, who was chasing him with lightning speed.

"What ninjutsu is this?"

"It can explode at such speed. It's quite similar to Cloud Shinobi Village's Lightning Style Chakra Mode!"

"But this technique seems to only focus on speed improvement."

"Even so, it's incredible to master such a technique at this age!"

More importantly, he had never seen this technique before.

This led to two possible conclusions:

One is that this secret technique belongs to a certain place and has never been seen in the ninja world.

The second is that Sasuke developed it himself.

The ninja leaned toward the second possibility.

Uchiha Sasuke, from the Uchiha clan, should not have access to any secret techniques from other villages.

So, it must be Sasuke's own creation.

If Sasuke really developed this technique himself, his talent was far greater than the ninja had imagined.

"Come quickly!"

"Let me see if you are suitable to be my container!"

At that moment, Sasuke stopped about a hundred meters away from the ninja.

His Chakra was nearly depleted.

Using Sharingan, Sasuke noticed some changes in the opponent's footprints.

It seemed the enemy had slowed down when they arrived here.

This suggested that the opponent was likely close.

In this case, Sasuke needed to restore his Chakra first.

Otherwise, he would have no Chakra left to fight if the enemy attacked.

The ninja noticed Sasuke's pause and observed as he began recovering his Chakra.

"Good vigilance..."
