Naruto: Two opponents versus Naruto, Konoha panics!

Is there a way to save Quan's life?!

In the black-framed world, the Nine-Tails' voice rang out.

It immediately caught the eye of many people.

Naruto also subconsciously asked Kurama in his mind.

Nine-Tails told him to get lost without hesitation.

Inside the belly of Death.

"It seems that the other me within the black-rimmed power is planning to use pure chakra to keep Izumi alive for now."

The Nine-Tailed Yin Half-Body shook its head and smiled.

If this trend continues...

The other half of the male body in the black-framed world is probably going to slap itself in the face.

However, no one knows you better than yourself.

The Nine-Tails' yin half is somewhat looking forward to seeing the yang half in the future black-framed world become friends with the black-framed Naruto.

"What do you mean?" Minato was initially quite nervous.

Upon hearing what the Nine-Tailed Yin Half-Body said, he subconsciously asked.

"You've divided us in two."

"I represent the yin half, while the half inside Naruto represents the yang half."

"The chakra within its body possesses an extremely strong self-healing ability."

Just like the healing of the Senju clan's bodies, this is also a aspect of Yang Release.

In addition, there's Naruto's physique from the Uzumaki clan.

That's why Naruto's healing ability is so powerful.

Of course, this is in comparison to others, not to Hashirama Senju's self-healing ability.

Hearing this, Minato Namikaze breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Uchiha Izumi is alright.

[Should we not resist?]

[Exit the mental world.]

Naruto's views on the Nine-Tails are inherently contradictory.

[This is equivalent to letting Naruto empty his mind and letting his delirium control his body.]

However.

Just then, Naruto felt his hand being gently grasped.

[Look down.]

He saw Uchiha Izumi in his arms looking at him with a faint smile on her lips.

【"Walk......"】

In that instant, Naruto's mind went blank.

She gently tightened her embrace around Uchiha Izumi.

"You'll be alright."

【"I promise."】

Izumi simply nodded slightly.

"Let's go...the people outside are coming."

Quan's voice is very gentle and pleasant to hear.

Like the poignant beauty of a blooming flower before it withers.

[Thump—]

Naruto's pupils suddenly contracted.

I just felt a sudden, sharp pain in my heart.

Then, the chakra within her body rapidly depleted.

No, it should be converging towards the lower abdomen.

[It's so hot. Naruto knows without even lifting his clothes that the sealing pattern on his lower abdomen must be showing.]

Chakra flowed into the seal like water.

Meanwhile, inside the sealed space, the Nine-Tailed Fox sat cross-legged on the ground, its hands clasped together.

[His face was full of disdain.]

"Foolish brat!"

"If I weren't worried about Itachi Uchiha coming back and having no one to stop him, I wouldn't be helping you!"

"Time to clean up!"

【Om—】

[After Naruto lost at least half of his chakra.]

He instinctively wanted to resist.

But soon, the warmth of the beautiful woman in his arms stopped his resistance.

Fortunately, the seal stopped absorbing chakra at this time.

Naruto knew that it wasn't the seal absorbing his chakra, but rather the giant fox inside the seal absorbing it.

[It's like how the big fox can transfer chakra to me.]

【only.】

Naruto was quickly shocked.

My lower abdomen also became very hot.

But it doesn't feel uncomfortable.

[Next.]

[A surge of pure golden chakra suddenly erupted from the crimson chakra cloak covering Naruto's lower abdomen.]

Naruto's eyes widened; he sensed a pure life force within this chakra.

[I used most of my chakra to get this from the great fox.]

[Naruto doesn't need the big fox to tell him; he knows how to use it.]

He tried to control the chakra that was shimmering with golden light.

[Using one's own chakra as a guide.]

[A moment later, the golden chakra, which blended seamlessly with the blood-red chakra cloak yet seemed incongruous, surged towards Naruto's right hand.]

In an instant, it arrived in Naruto's right palm.

[After that, Naruto no longer needed to be distracted.]

The golden chakra immediately surged along the cut on Uchiha Izumi's back.

[Thump—]

[Uchiha Izumi's previously lowered eyes widened immediately.]

She stared at Naruto in disbelief.

[I felt something scalding hot seeping into the wound on my back.]

Immediately afterwards, that scalding hot, water-like substance enveloped his heart, and then began to beat again, even though his heart was about to stop.

[Knock knock knock—]

[Just a few breaths later.]

A faint thumping sound came from Uchiha Izumi's chest.

At the same time, a buzzing sound came from behind.

[The wound inflicted by the ninja sword is slowly healing.]

"Ouch~!"

[A look of pain crept onto Uchiha Izumi's pretty face.]

Seeing her perk up immediately, Naruto knew that the golden chakra he had obtained from the great fox, using most of his own chakra, was working.

【Um?!】

Suddenly, Naruto paused, startled.

【hiss--】

He couldn't help but gasp.

[Uchiha Izumi clenched her teeth, as if enduring unspeakable pain.]

The hand that had been hanging down naturally suddenly wrapped around Naruto.

A pair of small hands clasped tightly around Naruto's back.

Then... Naruto felt as if his back had been scratched and was bleeding.

"They're inside. Be careful; they might be survivors of the Uchiha clan!"

[The voice of a Root organization ninja can be heard outside.]

Instantly, Naruto felt an even greater force coming from behind.

The remaining survivors.

[By the way... Itachi Uchiha slaughtered his entire clan; it's impossible that he spared not a single one.]

So... the reason that old man, the Third Hokage, sent people here, besides collecting the Uchiha clan's eyes, was also...

[Deal with the few remaining survivors of the Uchiha clan!]

Uchiha Sasuke: "Damn the Third Hokage!!!"

Kakashi Hatake: "Naruto with the black frame doesn't know about the Root organization. The ninjas on the black-framed big screen aren't the Anbu, but Danzo's Root organization."

Sasuke: "..."

Inside the arena.

Naruto's face turned red.

She couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth at all.

But he absolutely dared not laugh.

Otherwise, if he laughed out loud at this moment, he might get beaten to a pulp by Yamanaka Inoichi and Hyuga Neji.

[Whoosh—]

Naruto, of course, wouldn't let them find out.

[He grabbed Uchiha Izumi and vanished in a flash.]

[To avoid Itachi Uchiha.]

Naruto chose to take the long way.

Fortunately, the five shadow clones sent earlier all entered from different directions, and they transmitted back a considerable amount of memories and experience, preventing him from getting lost within the Uchiha clan's territory.

However.

Naruto was unaware of this.

What price will he have to pay for taking this long detour?

All he knew was that the girl in his arms was in great pain.

She's holding on by sheer willpower.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be gripping her back so tightly.

[It has clearly reached its limit.]

At this moment, if she could shout it out, it would definitely alleviate some of the pain.

[But just as Naruto left the Uchiha clan's territory and reached the outermost edge, intending to follow the river to the back mountain and then return home...]

Under the cunning moonlight, on the only path back to the back mountain, a figure appeared like a ghost.

[It's the masked man who's returned!]

The masked man did not meet Itachi Uchiha at the agreed-upon location.

[That's why I guessed Itachi Uchiha might be in danger.]

[This could be due to the Konoha leadership going back on their word.]

Itachi Uchiha would not die so easily.

However, this is a rare opportunity, and if we can also take care of Itachi Uchiha while we're at it, that would be even better.

After all, this once-useful knife has been used up.

It should still be used where it's most crucial.

If he could, the masked man would still prefer to kill Uchiha Itachi himself.

[His Mangekyou Sharingan was enough to make this worthwhile.]

Those two Mangekyou Sharingan eyes posed a significant threat to him.

However, what the masked man didn't expect was...

There was an unexpected discovery.

[In the distance, Naruto, carrying Izumi, rushed towards them.]

The masked man narrowed his eyes slightly.

Under the moonlight, Naruto's long, golden hair was incredibly striking.

At the same time he saw Naruto and Izumi clearly, Naruto also saw his face clearly.

"Water... whirlpool... Naruto?"

The masked man murmured something.

Naruto, who had leaped high into the air, suddenly caught his breath!

It's that masked man!!!

[The masked man who single-handedly slaughtered the entire Konoha Guard!]

【call out--】

Without the slightest hesitation.

Naruto, with one arm around Izumi who was writhing in pain, pulled a trident-shaped kunai from his ninja tool pouch with the other.

A sound of something cutting through the air was heard.

The masked man remained standing in the same spot.

Naruto took a deep breath.

[Raise your index and middle fingers, press your thumb against the knuckles of your ring and little fingers, and form a mudra with one hand.]

[Shadow Clone Technique!]

P.S.: I habitually think about the plot before bed, and it goes really smoothly... but I forget it all when I wake up...

No matter how I write it, it just doesn't feel right.

He probably went to pick up a package, stood there for half an hour, and then found it had been taken, which made him angry.
