35 Reasoning with an idio (2/2)

Saito: ”You're really a simpleton. I didn't ask you not to leave but I told you to choose a better path. Orochimaru is after your bloodline. You will become a toy for his experiments and don't think that you can overpower him. That bastard is harder to kill than a Kage. Both the third hokage and Jiraya one of the sanin barely managed to hurt him and he still managed to flee.”

Sasuke: ”They were just weak.”

Saito: ”Believe me Orochimaru is a snake he has as many backup plans as there are stars in the sky and if at that forest I didn't stop him you would have already became his toy.”

Sasuke: ”So what do you expect me to do?”

Saito: ”I know that your life's goal is to kill Itachi but before you act on impulse. I hope you will try to learn more about your brother's actions before acting on impulse.”

Sasuke: ”But I still need power!”

Saito: ”Try to expend your powers and learn to use them to perfection expand your arsenal and don't forget to put train each day with your life on the line. Naruto over there is inferior to you in all aspects expect one thing, he is a hard working guy and he is always looking to improve. And to tell you the truth his life wasn't that much better than yours even worst in certain aspects, an orphan hated by everybody for a crime he didn't commit but instead of been consumed by hatred he tried to improve and slowly gain the approval of people around him. He has a big chakra reserve but he is an idiot who only knows how to rush headfirst into fight but that's what made him grow stronger. You are in no way inferior you are smart and have great talent and let me tell you one thing revenge is a dish best served cold. Try to learn more about your target before acting on impulse, you are a ninja for god's sake.”

Sasuke finally cooled down.

Sasuke: ”But I betrayed the village, I will be treated as a criminal.”

Saito: ”I will talk with the Hokage, this mission is a secret and only a small circle of people know about it. And I think the best course of action for you now is to join the Anbu, you get access to a lot of resources and also gain access to some intelligence reports. It will also protect you from the Darkness of Konoha.”

Sasuke: ”Darkness?”

Saito: ”Root an organization headed by some power hungry bastard named Danzo. Just be careful in case you are in his presence. Now help Naruto up Sakura is waiting for you both in the village. And don't tell anyone about what I told you.”

Naruto finally recovered and regained consciousness. Just as Sasuke held his hand to Naruto.

Naruto jumped to his feet and hugged him. And after that he head-butted him.

Sasuke was shocked and he held his head in pain.

Sasuke: ”You crazy bastard what was that for?”

Naruto: ”For making Sakura cry you idiot.”

They started bickering as if nothing happened before. Saito was standing by the side watching them with an amused smile on his face. They looked like brothers. And just as he was about to ask them to hurry up and move.

Saito heard a sound and directly jumped at both Sasuke and Naruto barely avoiding a sneak attack.

Saito then saw him the source of all his headaches, Orochimaru.
