Journey to the West: Life Simulation of Sun Wukong

Although Haruno Sakura now possessed immensely powerful chakra, and her ninjutsu and physical techniques had reached their pinnacle, Danzo still regarded her as nothing more than an inexperienced young girl.

Someone who had never actually carried out a mission could hardly be called a true ninja!

Therefore, Danzo felt confident.

Three days later, Danzo dispatched nearly ten Foundation ninjas who followed Haruno Sakura and others after their ninja school was dismissed.

Their orders were to kidnap Haruno Sakura and Naruto among others.

In reality, these ten Foundation personnel were merely pawns sent by Danzo to test the strength of Haruno Sakura and her companions; he had never expected these ten to succeed.

He just hoped to obtain some of their cellular tissue in the end and that their identities would not be discovered.

As for the presence of Anbu around Naruto...

After Naruto had gained control of a fraction of the Nine-Tails' power, his sensory abilities had greatly improved, and Sarutobi Hiruzen gradually withdrew the Anbu who were monitoring Naruto, especially since during the previous period, the Anbu had been caught by Naruto quite a few times.

Seeing Naruto's strong sensory abilities, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt it inappropriate to keep the Anbu following him and instead reassigned them to other duties.

"Sakura, are we still training today?" Naruto asked, "I've created a new ninjutsu, you'll definitely be amazed!"

"Really?" Sakura smiled slightly, yet she had left the main city of Konoha and went to the Uchiha clan's area to buy a pancake from Uchiha Tezuka. Thischapterwasmadepossiblebythe

"Grandpa Tezuka, you're still as spirited as usual." Naruto Uzumaki also got a pancake from Uchiha Tezuka and greeted him.

Shikamaru: "Get me one too, Grandpa Tezuka."

Ino: "I'll take one as well."

Choji: "I'll take twenty!"

"Alright, no problem." Uchiha Tezuka happily served them pancakes, especially Choji, who was a major customer. Every time he came, he would buy at least twenty.

"You're heading to the clearing in the Forest of Death for training again, huh?" Uchiha Tezuka inquired.

"Yeah." Haruno Sakura nodded, "After all, we strive to become powerful ninjas."

After saying goodbye to Uchiha Tezuka, they ate while heading towards the Forest of Death.

Naruto Uzumaki bit into his crispy pancake, savouring the crunchy crust and the bursting meat fillings in his mouth, and immediately exclaimed, "Grandpa Tezuka's cooking skills are still as good as ever. Thanks to Sakura, we discovered such a delicious pancake shop on the edge of the commercial street."

"Not all Uchiha clan members are as conceited as Uchiha Sasuke."

"Grandpa Tezuka is very gentle... Although his face looks very stern, he's as kind as the Third Hokage."

Shikamaru took a bite of the pancake and reminisced, "It must be because he doesn't activate his Sharingan."

"Huh... Does that have something to do with activating the Sharingan?" Naruto wondered, "I heard the Uchiha clan judged talents by whether they could activate it. Sasuke hasn't activated his Sharingan yet, so he must be considered useless by the Uchiha clan."

Shikamaru, speechless: "How can you trash talk Sasuke so much?"

Ino laughed, "Naruto and Sasuke are like eternal rivals, neither of them wants to lose, but they do care for each other, right?"

Choji munching his pancakes said: "crunch crunch".

"What, I don't care about that guy at all!" Naruto immediately retorted, "He has parents and a brother; why should I care about him?"

The conversation suddenly took a somber turn.

Sakura quickly changed the subject: "How about we race and see who gets to the clearing first? Just running, no chakra allowed."

"No problem!" Naruto immediately forgot his displeasure, clapped his hands, and said cheerfully, "Even without using chakra, my body is very strong!"

Choji, having finished all his pancakes, dusted off the crumbs from his hands, flexed his muscles, and grinned, "When it comes to muscles, I am the strongest!"

Shikamaru, holding his forehead, said: "I give up on you guys."

Despite his words, Shikamaru also got ready in a starting position, clearly not wanting to lose.

Sakura glanced at Ino, who was already in position, then she too squatted slightly, her lips barely parting as she said: "On your marks, get set—"

"Go!"

As soon as the word dropped, all five of them sprang forward like arrows from bows, kicking up a massive cloud of dust behind them.

In the blink of an eye, they were out of sight.

The ten Foundation ninjas following them were dumbfounded.

They indeed hadn't sensed any chakra traces on those five, proving they really hadn't used chakra but solely their physical strength.

Yet, even so, their speed was almost comparable to that of a high-ranking ninja running at full speed.

"Are these five some kind of monsters?"

"Are they really humans?"

"Quick, keep up!"

After a reminder from one of the Foundation ninjas, the others quickly came to their senses and quietly followed...

...

By then, Haruno Sakura and the others had already reached the clearing near the Forest of Death, with Haruno Sakura arriving first, as usual, followed closely by Naruto Uzumaki.

Next came the agile fatty, Choji.

Then Ino.

Lastly, Shikamaru.

"Whew" Shikamaru panted a few times and said, "I'm last again; I really don't know how you guys train your bodies."

Ino laughed merrily, "That's because you're too lazy, always running fewer laps during practice."

A few breaths later, Shikamaru shrugged, coming to terms with it, "Can't help it, after all, everyone in my family is pretty much like me; overcoming genetic limitations isn't easy."
