"The art of shadow clone."

“Bang, bang!”

More than a dozen figures appeared in front of the boy along with the white smoke.

"superior."

At the boy's command, the three shadow clones charged towards the guards in a team.

The two shadow clones rubbed together in the boy's hands, condensing into ninjutsu.

"Rasengan."

With the help of the clones, a Rasengan was formed and blasted directly at the guard.

"boom."

The guard's armor shattered the next moment, revealing the person inside. The boy was greatly surprised; the appearance of the person inside startled him. A desiccated corpse, someone who had long since died.

On a high platform in Loulan, a purple energy ball shone brightly, transforming into a bolt of energy lightning that struck directly towards the boy.

"Snapped."

The boy reacted quickly to dodge the attack, but the purple lightning struck again, determined to succeed. The boy had also prepared his Rasengan. He collided directly with the lightning.

"boom."

The two collided, and purple energy spilled out, spreading like vines. The platform couldn't withstand the energy's spread and snapped. The boy fell freely from the height.

"what."

The boy couldn't help but shout. The sound was particularly jarring amidst the quiet buildings.

"brush."

A kunai arrived first, and a figure grabbed the boy by the collar, instantly teleporting him to the ground. Before the boy could react, he was still flailing his arms and legs.

"Kakashi, is he an idiot? He's already been saved, and he's still yelling like a ghost."

It was Minato and his group who arrived. He used the Flying Thunder God Technique to save the boy.

"Ah."

A concise answer.

"Alright, you're saved. How did you end up here all by yourself?"

Minato spoke up, recognizing the boy's headband as a Mizuki ninja and guessing that the little guy had fallen behind.

"My name is Naruto Uzumaki. I came here on a mission, but after being sucked into a vortex, I woke up here. I don't know where my companions are."

Naruto felt a special connection with the ninja who had saved him, and he couldn't help but blurt it all out.

"I am Minato Namikaze, the one wearing the mask is Kakashi, next to him is Obito Uchiha, and this is Rin. The other one with white hair is Kakashi's brother, Carrot."

Shuimen introduced each of his people one by one.

"What? You, you, you're Kakashi? You have an older brother?"

Naruto pointed at Kakashi, utterly astonished. "How did Kakashi-sensei become so young? And he even has an older brother? I've never heard Kakashi-sensei mention that before!" His already not-so-bright brain nearly shut down.

"Is there a problem with my name being Kakashi?"

Kakashi asked Naruto, who was still in shock. He didn't remember ever interacting with this boy before, so why was the boy reacting so strongly upon hearing his name?

Only Carrot, who was standing to the side, knew that the boy had stumbled into the time vortex and ended up here.

Chapter 62 Save the Beauty

"No problem, no problem."

Naruto waved his hands repeatedly, then looked at Kakashi carefully and realized that the young Kakashi was not as lazy as he was as an adult.

"Kakashi, the way you're looking at me is weird. Could it be that I've fallen for you?"

Obito's untimely interruption startled Kakashi, causing him to involuntarily take a few steps back. Kakashi, having been exposed to Jiraiya's novels, considered himself no longer a novice. Obito's words elicited an involuntary physical reaction from Kakashi.

"Naruto, what brings you to Loulan?"

Minato Namikaze spoke first. He urgently needed information about Loulan.

"I came here on the orders of the Hokage to capture the Sand Village rogue ninja, Hyakuza. However, Hyakuza forcibly broke the seal of the Fourth Hokage, and I was sucked into it and ended up here."

Naruto told him everything he knew.

"What are you talking about? What Fourth Hokage? The Third Hokage hasn't stepped down yet, so where did this Fourth Hokage come from?"

Obito immediately sensed something was wrong and scolded Naruto. He now suspected that the man in front of him was treating them like fools.

"That's exactly right, that's what Granny Tsunade said."

Naruto said confidently. Why was he being scolded by the person in front of him even though he was telling the truth? He didn't understand.

"What he said is true. He is not from this time and space."

At this moment, Carrot spoke up.

"what?"

Everyone looked on in disbelief, but it was Carrot who had said it. The thoughts of belief and disbelief kept alternating in their minds. They needed Carrot to give them more information.

"Didn't Minato-senpai already know that?"

Carrot then dropped another bombshell.

Everyone looked at Minato Namikaze again, and saw that Minato Namikaze nodded.

“I was just guessing before, but now I’ve confirmed it. But how did you know, Carrot?”

Minato then asked.

"The Nine-Tails is inside his stomach."

"Ah" x4

"how is this possible?"

"How did you know?"

As Minato's students, Kakashi and the others naturally knew that Minato's girlfriend was the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki, and that the Nine-Tails had always resided inside Kushina's womb. And now there's another Nine-Tails. This means that with an extra Nine-Tails, this boy is no longer from this timeline.

Naruto asked in surprise, "The Nine-Tails has been suppressed inside my stomach all this time. How did this man named Karot discover it?"

"It's simple, I will never forget the little fox's scent."

After all, Carrot had fought Kurama before, so he wouldn't mistake Kurama's aura. Moreover, he was the man who had the script in his hands, so of course he knew who the person in front of him was. However, he just made up an excuse and needed to provide evidence.

"Could he be...?"

Women are always perceptive. Lin looked at Naruto from the left and Minato from the right, noticing how similar the two were—the same hair color and the same ability to make buns. However, his surname was Uzumaki, which made Lin hesitate.

This was the first time Naruto had heard anyone refer to Kurama (the Nine-Tails) that way, and he was immediately incredulous. Naruto knew how terrifying Kurama was. If he lost his mind, Kurama would take advantage of the situation and control him. He had been trying to coexist peacefully with Kurama, but without success.

Do you know how to control the Nine-Tails?

Naruto couldn't help but ask. Judging from Carrot's tone, he felt that Carrot must know a lot about Kurama.

"It's simple. Just beat them up, and if that doesn't work, beat them up again."

Karot gave his answer, but Naruto couldn't accept it. "Dude, if I could beat him, why would I need your help?"

“If it’s you, you and Nine Lama will definitely get along well. I believe in you.”

Karot said to Naruto, "It's already incredible that Naruto didn't turn evil and destroy the world. If someone else had to go through Naruto's past, I believe no one could have endured it. That's why we like Naruto—he can keep his heart turned towards the light even when he's in darkness."

"Really? So his name is Nine Lama."

Naruto touched his stomach; he only now knew the name of Kurama (the Nine-Tails).

The Nine-Tails inside Naruto's stomach was terrified.

"Who exactly is he? How does he know my name? Could he be related to the Sage of Six Paths?"

All of this remained a mystery. Just as Kurama (the Nine-Tails) was about to forcefully break through the seal, it saw Minato beside Naruto. Even in his ash form, Kurama recognized him; it was Minato who had split it in two, leaving it incomplete. Kurama relented. It curled up.

"By the way, Naruto, who were you fighting up there just now?"

To prevent the mission from being carried out, Minato steered the conversation back on track.

"I had already won the battle against the guards, but a sudden surge of purple energy attacked me. That's when I fell down."

Naruto recounted his ordeal in detail.

"It seems we've been discovered."

Carrot suddenly spoke. Groups of armored guards immediately surrounded Carrot and his companions.

The once quiet Loulan has now become bustling.

"The art of shadow clone."

"Boom, boom."

Naruto formed hand seals, and more than a hundred clones instantly appeared on the field.

"How extravagant!"
