" the legendary Sannin !! Why ?? " Sasuke looked confised as for why such a strong individual went all through this trouble only to leave him with his weird mark .
Naruto on the other hand , had different reaction .
" Why am i not suprised .... One sannin is a pervert alsways peaking at innocent girls and ladies and lack any sense of responsibility... The second one i meet is also a pervert but a bigger one as he lust after little boys body and is all slimy like a snake ... Dont tell me the third sannin is no better than the other two ...."
Naruto rambled as he sat down .
Kakashi and sasuke were both left speechless , especially kakashi as he didnt know what should he say .
Seeing kakashi remained silent , naruto smirked ...
" Seeing you not defending , i am right arent i kakashi sensei , the last sannin is also a pervert and has some weird fetish right ...rght ... "
Sasuke also wanted to know if he was right and looked towards kakashi .
Kakashi was now sweating as he didnt know if he shoukd tell the truth or not .
" uh... No ..you are wrong ..naruto .. Tsunade sama is ..not like that "
" Heh ...but there is something isnt there ...she also is weird i bet !! And something very very wrong with this 'tsunade sama ' ... I cant imagine why they are called the sannin ... No rather they shoukd be the three weirdos .."
Kakashi also wanted to nod his head , but he forced himself to not do such a thing .
" Anyway ... Kakashi sensei...tell me about the weird tattoo on sasukes neck .. after all its a love bite from one of the sannin !! "
" NARUTO .!! Damn you !!! As sasuke threw a pillow at naruto , he felt as if he had pulled a muscle and fell back "
" Hey hey ..dont get defensive, i am only saying the truth ... Hey dont throw hosipital stuff ...stop sasuke !! "
Kakashi finally couldnt take it anymore and decided ro stop them .
" Stop it ... This isnt a joke Naruto , what that Tattoo is a Curse Mark !! "
Naruto and sasuke both stopped and asked at the same time .
" Cursed mark ? What is that ? "
" honestly i am not sure what exactly it does but according to the records of the other curse marks ... There may be multiple functions "
" More common one is that it provides the marked one with inhanced chakra reserves but the chakra that is stored in the cursed mark is very different from the chakra that is created by our efforts , its dark , sinister and causes damage to the body .
Other functions can included tracking , spying , mental control and corruptions and other .."
" Unfortunately, it is a creation of Orichimaru and only he knows how it full works , as each mark has been different , we are not sure what your marks full capabilities are , ij short it is dangerous."
" It cannot be removed ? "
Sasuke asked .
" No .. even if you slice away the muscle beneath , when the wound heals , it reappears ."
" Cool... No .. i am not cool not cool at all .." Naruto corrected himself .
Sasuke remained silent and asked .
" I can use it to gain power ? "
Kakashi remained silent for a while and eventually nodded .
" But remember sasuke no one does good for otgers without expecting something in return ... There is also a cost to power !! "
" We pay it by sweat and blood as we train , but if you use its power , you have to pay something else ... So i advice you to not use it untill you are forced to "
Sasuke nodded and remained silent .
" Also now that you are up , the finall test of chunin exams will start in three days , delegates from various countries are coming to watch and even the Kazekage of Sunagakure is coming ... Make sure you are better , if you still want to be a chunin "
Sasuke and naruto both nodded as kakashi left the two alone .
After a minute , Sasuke spoke .
" What was Orochimarus message ? "
" Ohh ...i didnt think you'll figure it out ."
" Dont waste my time and tell me "
" nothing much , he said if you want power you can visit him ... he'll help you kill itachi "
Sasuke clenched his fist as he heard Itachis name .
" But if i were you , i wouldnt go ... Not yet atleast "
" ill find a time when Orochimaru has no choice but to be depend on me ...."
" Think about it ... Why is he willing to help you , he must have a purpose ... So beware sasuke "
" i know you'll leave , but make sure you do it when its right for you sasuke "
Naruto got up and closed the door behind leaving Sasuke alone .
....
As days passed , the final test drew closer and closer , by now most of the delegates had arrived .
Various nobels and renound businessman were here attending the Chunin exams finale.
The Kazekage of Sunagakure arrived a day before and was welcomed personally by Sarutobi Hiruzen and the council of elders , With only Danzo missing .
Baki who was supposed to look after Gaara , temari and Kankuro was summoned and made to make a report before the kazekage .
After the briefing, Baki was given his new orders .
' So we are really mobing forward with the mission '
He had hope that maybe kazekage will change his mind , but no .. it was still the same .
' for the village '
Baki called for Gaara , Temari and Kankuro and informed them that the mission is a go and the invasion will begin during the final match tomorrow .
Gaara was here to wreck as much havoc as possible , meanwhile Temari and Kankuro were assigned the duty to protect him .
The other jonins of sungakure will help them escape and hold off the anbu and jonins of konoha .
Temari who had been in a happy mood ever since the test sexond ended , felt as if she had been dropped into cold freezing water .
Her expression darkened as she couldnt find it in her heart to proceed with the plan .
She was having doubts , but she couldn't refuse her dad .
Defeated , she closed her heart and forced away that smile as she went and told Gaara and Kankuro about what their mission was , similar to them , these two had the same expression .
" Gaara what do you think ? "
Temari asked in a low voice
" I ..i.. am the tool of Sunagakure, if Father has ordered ill follow them "
As he crumbled the scroll and turned around , not wanting to face Temari and kankuro .
" Also dont contact Naruto any longer ... It will be only more painful for you Temari .
He may not care about if you guys are enemies , but are you sure you can live with it ? "
Gaara's word made Temari freeze up and she nearly choked , her heart felt heavy as she dekt her eyes turn moist but she steeled her heart and nodded .
