Naruto: A parody of the entire ninja world, the opening scene infuriates the Kage.

Chapter 180: Is it permissible to abandon the mission?

Outside Konoha Village, Itachi and Juzo Biwa each had their own thoughts.

Itachi's plan was to both get Naruto back to Konoha and give Nagato an explanation.

Nagato ordered him to bring Naruto back; it was a mission, but also a test.

Perhaps there's no need to even test the waters.

After all, the light screen revealed many of Itachi's secrets.

At that moment, Juzo Biwa also spotted Tsunade in the distance.

With the target identified, Juzo prepared for battle.

Even if Itachi stops Tsunade, Juzo still has to face Naruto and Shizune.

Of course, even with Naruto and Shizune combined, they pose no threat to Juzo now.

As one of the first Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, his strength was certainly not weak.

Of course, it can't compare to some perverts.

As Tsunade and the other two got closer, Itachi stood up.

At this moment, Itachi and Juzo concealed their presence and reduced their chakra fluctuations, making it difficult for even sensory ninjas nearby to detect them.

Although Tsunade is not a sensory-type ninja, her sensory abilities are not weak.

As they got closer, Tsunade seemed to sense something.

"Attack!" Itachi darted out first.

Juzo followed closely behind.

At the same time, Juzo formed hand seals and used the Hidden Mist Technique.

Suddenly, a large area was shrouded in fog.

Visibility was limited in the fog.

Itachi had already arrived in front of Tsunade.

Juzo, wielding his Executioner's Blade, stopped Naruto and Shizune.

“The Uchiha are fighting seven against one.” Tsunade said seriously, but secretly gave Itachi a wink.

Tsunade was able to rescue Naruto without Itachi's help.

But Itachi is currently near Konoha.

It's obvious they want to abduct Naruto.

However, Itachi was definitely an undercover agent within the Akatsuki organization.

So, if Itachi can't stay in Akatsuki, he can simply return to Konoha.

As for Itachi's current partner, judging from the guillotine he's wielding, he should be Kirigakure's rogue ninja, Juzo Biwa.

Itachi remained expressionless and did not use genjutsu. Instead, he used taijutsu and throwing ninja tools.

Itachi's use of the Uchiha clan's kunai throwing technique was nothing short of art, a truly masterful feat.

Besides his superb kunai throwing skills, Itachi's taijutsu (physical combat skills) are also quite good.

The fight between Tsunade and Itachi was evenly matched, and neither could gain the upper hand for the time being.

On the other side, Shizune was first knocked down by Juzo's kick, and then Naruto was also punched.

“Naruto, Akatsuki is your home. Come back with us,” Juzo said to Naruto.

"No, I want to go back to Konoha," Naruto said earnestly.

Although Konoha holds many bad memories for Naruto, it's not something he can easily let go of.

It's also because Naruto's time in Amegakure was too short.

In addition, Naruto now has an idol; his idol is Guy.

Kai is a Konoha ninja.

This is also one of the reasons why Naruto wanted to return to Konoha.

Seeing Naruto refuse, Juzo's expression turned cold.

It would be best if Naruto obediently returned to Amegakure; if not, Juzo would forcibly take him away.

Just then, a green figure arrived.

Wearing a green bodysuit, it was none other than Might Guy, the Azure Beast of Konoha.

"The proud blue beast of Konoha is here." Guy came to Naruto's side and shielded him behind him.

"Guardian Angel!" Naruto was overjoyed to see his idol.

As for Juzo, he was quite wary of him.

Even knowing that Kai is definitely not as fierce as he was when he fought Six Paths Madara on the screen, he is still not someone to be trifled with.

When Kai saw Juzo, he felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he was.

When Guy noticed the guillotine in Juzo's hand, he finally remembered.

One of the Seven Ninja Swords of Kirigakure.

So, he was one of the seven Mist Ninja from back then.

At that moment, Kai thought of his father.

A perennial genin perfectly embodies the meaning of the Will of Fire.

Even the Third Hokage acknowledged his father.

Now, he faces one of the original seven as his enemy.

With Naruto protected behind him, at this moment, Guy and Dai from back then seemed to overlap.

At this moment, Kai also realized the truth.

"Might Guy, the light screen exaggerated your strength, making you appear before me in your ignorance. Well then, I will take your life without hesitation." As soon as he finished speaking, Juzo slashed at Guy with his sword.

The sword strike was sharp, heavy, and domineering, with astonishing chakra surging within.

Juzo's attack was extremely powerful.

As for Kai, he took out a nunchaku.

The nunchucks met the decapitation sword head-on, yet they held their own.

"Ding Ding Ding ~"

"boom!"

"Click~"

"Boom~"

……

Kai and Juzo engaged in a fierce battle.

In terms of ninjutsu, Juzo is far superior to Guy, but in terms of taijutsu, the opposite is true.

Juzo felt that Kai wasn't much worse than Might Guy back then.

Meanwhile, Kakashi appears and helps Tsunade fight Itachi.

After fighting for a while longer, Itachi withdrew from the battle.

"withdraw!"

Itachi retreated first.

Juzo looked unwilling, but since Itachi had already retreated, he could only follow suit, feeling resentful.

Tsunade, Kakashi, and Guy didn't chase after them.

"We owe you all a lot for coming to our aid this time," Tsunade said to Kakashi and Guy.

If no one comes to support her, Tsunade will be held back by Itachi, and Shizune and Naruto won't be able to handle Juzo.

Tsunade also carefully examined Kai a few times.

Tsunade also witnessed the battle between Guy and Juzo.

Tsunade was also aware of Guy's strength.

As long as Guy doesn't open the Eight Gates, Tsunade is absolutely confident that she can easily defeat him.

If the Kai Emperor on the screen is truly Kai's future, then Kai still has a lot of room to grow.

If Kai is given another 10 years, he might really be able to reach the level of the Night Kai on the light screen.

……

After traversing the forest for a long time, Itachi and Juzo finally stopped.

"Why retreat when you're fighting seven opponents at once?" Juzo's expression was grim.

"The opponent is Kai, I believe the leader will allow us to abandon the mission," Itachi said calmly.

Is it permissible to abandon the mission?

Juzo's face was gloomy.

And so what if the opponent is Kai?

No one is strong from the start.

Guy is not weak now, but Juzo is confident he can defeat him.

Therefore, Juzo believed that if Itachi had just managed to hold off Tsunade and Kakashi, he could have quickly defeated Guy and taken Naruto away.

The mission was clearly achievable, but Itachi gave up.

"Or is it that Naruto's return to Konoha is what you want to see?" Juzo looked at Itachi with icy eyes.

At this moment, Juzo looked like he was about to chop down Itachi at the slightest provocation.

“I know Gai’s strength better than you do.” Itachi stared at Juzo with a serious expression.

Juzo came from Kirigakure, while Itachi was a Konoha ninja.

Furthermore, Itachi also worked in the Anbu.

Itachi knew far more about Konoha's ninjas than Juzo did.

Juzo thinks Kai isn't strong enough? That's just his misconception.

Itachi could clearly tell Juzo that Guy was a terrifying and awe-inspiring ninja. Although the current Guy was not yet at the level of the Mighty King shown on the screen, he was still capable of defeating Juzo.

Juzo's face was extremely gloomy.

……

Konoha.

Tsunade was still thinking that Itachi's decision not to return to Konoha meant he was going to continue infiltrating Akatsuki.

But that's too dangerous.

Regardless of what Tsunade was thinking at that moment, the village was quite lively as soon as Naruto returned to Konoha.

Naruto was surrounded by a large group of people wherever he went.

There are also many people who are enthusiastic about Naruto.

Today, Kai is a celebrity in the village.

Naruto and Guy, standing together, are the center of attention wherever they go.

This made Naruto feel somewhat flattered.

Even Naruto didn't receive this treatment back in Amegakure.

After all, Naruto had the added advantage of being the orphan of the Fourth Hokage in Konoha.

The ninja academy was still holding classes, but many children skipped classes after hearing that Naruto had returned to the village.

Erzhuzi also skipped class.

Seeing Naruto from afar, Sasuke's feelings were different from others.

The reincarnation of fate?
The bond between twins destined for each other?
According to what was shown on the screen, the Uchiha clan will be wiped out next year. As the last survivor of the clan, Sasuke is in a similar situation to Naruto.

But for now, the Uchiha clan is still doing well.

Instead, Danzo became a rogue ninja.

With Danzo gone, the Uchiha clan's situation has improved considerably.

Although the Third Hokage's attitude towards the Uchiha clan changed, it wasn't as extreme as Danzo's.

As for the Fifth Hokage, Jiraiya, while his attitude towards the Uchiha clan wasn't particularly good, he wasn't overly hostile either.

As for Sasuke, he is seen as the future of the clan.

After all, according to what was said on the screen, Sasuke is one of the Twins of Destiny.

Whether it is true, including the matter of Indra's chakra, is still uncertain.

But it is a fact that Sasuke is a genius of the clan. Even if he is not as good as Shisui and Itachi, he is still worth the clan's focus on cultivating.

Therefore, Sasuke's life was actually quite good.

Many villagers also have goodwill towards Sasuke.

The only thing that bothered Sasuke was that Sakura would stare at him and swoon over him every day at school.

However, Sasuke felt absolutely no feelings for Sakura.

Perhaps it's because Sasuke is still young.

Even if children in the ninja world mature early, they're not this early.

In contrast, Naruto's status in Sasuke's heart is getting higher and higher.

It's fair to say that even 100 Sakuras combined couldn't compare to 1 Naruto in Sasuke's heart.

Of course, Sasuke's feelings for Naruto are purely based on bond.

Now that Sasuke has seen Naruto, he feels a little excited.

However, Sasuke still pretends to be cool on the surface.

Although Sasuke says he won't pretend to be an expert, the truth is he's getting better and better at it.

……

In the Land of Grass, Awei rode a ghost fire motorcycle towards Konoha.

Using his disguise skills, Ah Wei now looks like a grass ninja.

The Grass Ninja Village is now an ally of the Leaf Village, but their relationship can't be described as particularly good, since the Grass Ninja has always been known for its lack of integrity.

As for the Grass Ninja that Awei was impersonating, he was 13 years old this year and was just a Genin. He died in a mission, so Awei's impersonation was not worried about being exposed.

Awei bought a motorcycle and headed to Konoha, also considering starting a small business there.

For example, build a motorcycle factory to produce "ghost fire" motorcycles.

Riding a motorcycle to get around is much better than walking, isn't it?

Of course, a motorcycle wouldn't work in a dense forest.

This motorcycle was designed by Awei, who then had it manufactured.

It doesn't need oil; it's activated directly with chakra.

Riding a motorcycle at top speed consumes the most chakra, about 1 calorie in 7 hours.

If you slow down and reduce the consumption of chakra, you can use 1 chakra for half a day or even most of the day without any problem.

For Awei, this kind of chakra consumption is not significant.

One card can last a long time, but one card of chakra is not much for Awei now.

……

In Konoha, Guy became the taijutsu instructor at the Ninja Academy.

Although Guy only needs to teach at the Ninja Academy for one hour a day, his salary is not low.

Inside the Hokage Building, Jiraiya, Tsunade, and F3 were having a meeting.

"Nagato probably won't go to war with Konoha," Jiraiya said.

Naruto has returned to Konoha.

Will the Akatsuki declare war on Konoha?

This is also what F3 is worried about.

Although Amegakure is a small ninja village, the Akatsuki organization that controls it is not weak.

"The Akatsuki leader values ​​Naruto highly. Now that Naruto has returned to Konoha, Akatsuki might very well launch a war against Konoha," Koharu Utatane said with a grave expression.

Mitokado Homura was already considering how Konoha should respond if Akatsuki started the war.

In addition, the group also discussed Naruto's training.

Naruto is now obsessed with taijutsu.

It's not that physical skills are no good, but we still need to teach according to individual aptitude.

Naruto has good talent, but it's not good for him to be obsessed with taijutsu.

Jiraiya felt that Naruto should focus on training the Rasengan series, then the Sage Mode of Mount Myōboku, and then strive to become the perfect Jinchūriki. As for taijutsu, he could learn it occasionally, but he shouldn't devote too much energy to it.

However, this is only Jiraiya's opinion.

Even if Tsunade and F3 both support him, there's nothing that can be done if Naruto himself doesn't listen.

It's all the light curtain's fault!

Let alone children, even Jiraiya was thrilled when he saw Might Guy and Madara Uchiha fight, and thought Guy was really cool.

At this moment, you can see a group of children running with Kai outside the window, first circling the village 50 times.

Naruto followed behind Guy, and even pulled Sasuke along.

Sakura reluctantly followed Sasuke.

However, before she could even run one lap around the village, Sakura couldn't run anymore.

Konoha is quite large; it takes a long time to circle the entire village.

For kids who have just entered the Ninja Academy, running a lap around the village is no easy feat.

Kai said he would run 50 laps.

In Kai's words, this is only the minimum standard.

Kai can walk upside down around the village more than 200 times.

Naruto had it relatively easy; his stamina was better than the other kids'.

After all, he has the Uzumaki bloodline and the Nine-Tails' chakra, which gives Naruto physical strength far beyond that of his peers.

As time went by, one by one the children running behind Kai couldn't keep up anymore, and those who were still persisting were feeling unwell.

At first it was okay, but gradually, my legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

It's worth mentioning that Kai was also carrying additional weights.

If Kai were to put the burden on any of these children, they would be lucky to even stand, let alone take a few steps.

Kai also kept an eye on the group of children behind him.

In terms of talent, Naruto is the best.

"Naruto's stamina is truly amazing!" Guy thought to himself.

When Kai was as young as Naruto, he didn't have this kind of stamina.

Sasuke's physical strength is far inferior to Naruto's.

The Uchiha clan's strength lies in the Sharingan's power.

Physical constitution is not a strong point of the Uchiha clan.

The Senju and Uzumaki clans are different; their eyes are nothing special, but their physiques are very strong.

The Uzumaki clan is known for its strong vitality and possesses enormous amounts of chakra.

All the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki throughout history have been of the Uzumaki bloodline, from Mito Uzumaki to Kushina Uzumaki, and from Kushina Uzumaki to Naruto Uzumaki today.

However, Mito and Kushina were both complete Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, while the Nine-Tails within Naruto was incomplete, consisting of only half.

Therefore, in a way, Naruto is not much better than Mito and Kushina.

Half a Nine-Tailed Fox is obviously much worse than a whole one.

But that doesn't stop them from crushing the other tailed beasts.
