Naruto: Two opponents versus Naruto, Konoha panics!

The Fourth Raikage: "As expected, a perfect Jinchuriki is inevitable."

Orochimaru: "In my opinion, the Nine-Tails might not even want to leave Naruto's body in the future."

Nine-Lama (Yang): "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Mei Terumi: "I feel the same way. I guess the Nine-Tails will be inseparable from Naruto with black frames from now on."

[To aid your spiritual practice?]

How should we help?

Kurama paused for a moment, then looked at the excited Naruto with some suspicion.

【Om—】

The next second, a doll appeared in front of Kurama.

[He bears a striking resemblance to Naruto.]

"You haven't torn me to pieces yet, tear this one to pieces first," Naruto chuckled.

Nine-Tailed Fox: "..."

【Hmph!】

The nine-tailed fox threw the doll away with obvious disdain.

A tail fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing this, Naruto turned to look at his shadow clone.

[One-handed hand seal.]

【Bang--】

[After creating another shadow clone, the shadow clone that had just entered a meditative state immediately dissipated.]

[Then the memories and experiences are transmitted back.]

In an instant.

Naruto felt an indescribable sensation spread from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.

It feels very comfortable.

[The spiritual power cultivated through meditation here.]

[Its quality is much higher than that of the outside world.]

[So Naruto left behind five shadow clones to continue meditating.]

He then turned and walked towards the sealed gate.

The big fox seemed a little nervous when he turned around.

The nine tails were curled up, as if trying to hide something.

"The big fox."

"I want to cultivate my spiritual power here."

"Oh," Kurama replied absentmindedly.

"You have to help me," Naruto said earnestly.

"How can I help?" Nine-Tailed Fox asked.

"If I continue to use Shadow Clones outside, or if something unexpected happens, it might affect the Shadow Clones that are cultivating here."

"If you could prevent my mental energy from entering before, you can definitely prevent it from leaving."

"Just help me hold off these shadow clones."

Kurama lowered its head and stared at Naruto for a long while.

Suddenly, he asked, "Why should I help you?"

"I'll get you a beautiful, comfortable, big room."

[After speaking, Kurama subconsciously looked around.]

"Hmph, I'm used to this. I don't need your meddling."

"Please, please~"

"Hmph! You foolish brat, you've got a lot of trouble!"

"Please, please~"

Nine-Tailed Fox: "..."

You think this will make me help you?

【wishful thinking!】

A moment later, Naruto exited the mental world.

[The mental connection was immediately severed.]

[I waited a little while.]

Then, the connection is established with the sealed space.

The five shadow clones that remained are still there.

The big fox didn't refuse him after all; it was just that the scoundrel was habitually stubborn.

[Then, Naruto went to the bedside and sat down next to Uchiha Izumi.]

"Let me rest for a while. I need to figure out the theory behind Fire Release techniques first."

[While Naruto was studying.]

[Inside the Hokage's office at the Hokage Building.]

Hiruzen Sarutobi placed a scroll down.

His brow was furrowed.

"That won't do... Let's go back to something more basic."

"We can't rush things. That child is only seven years old. If we give him too much at once, he will inevitably overexert himself and deplete his body's resources."

Even those from the Uzumaki clan, with their unique physiques, often suffer from numerous hidden ailments.

"If we proceed step by step, that child will repay the Sarutobi clan for at least fifty years to come."

[Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind conjured up his grand ambitions.]

From the moment Naruto displayed his talent, his thoughts changed a lot.

They've all forgotten what their original thoughts were.

【call--】

[After lighting the pipe and taking a deep drag.]

A glint of light flashed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's cloudy eyes.

"Come in."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

[Squeak—]

The door to the Hokage's office was pushed open.

A ninja wearing an animal mask entered.

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at that strand of purple hair.

[He nodded slightly and said, "There's a task I need you to do."]

"This task is crucial to your becoming a full member."

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

【...】

Kurenai Yuhi: "Yugao?"

Mitarashi Anko: "It must be Yugao."

Kurenai Yuhi: "What mission does the Third Hokage want Yugao to complete?"

Mitarashi Anko: "I don't know, but it's definitely related to Naruto with the black-rimmed glasses. That old guy is probably going to send Yugao to monitor Naruto."

Uzuki Yugao: "Probably. I haven't been in the Anbu for long. They're probably going to have me disguise myself as a civilian and get close to Naruto, the guy with the black-rimmed glasses?"

Ninja Academy.

Naruto arrived at school carrying a large number of scrolls.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sent a scroll with his messenger.

It's ninjutsu.

[C-rank ninjutsu, Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique.]

[There are also Hiruzen Sarutobi's insights on this.]

In the letter, Hiruzen Sarutobi earnestly urged Naruto to restrain himself.

Premature and excessive training is not a good thing.

Of course, most importantly, that old bastard Hiruzen Sarutobi already knows that I've learned to use Shadow Clone Technique.

So be it.

[Naruto needs to focus on his studies lately, so there's no need to rush his martial arts training.]

As for whether his secret had been exposed, Naruto didn't care, because if it were, his residence would be surrounded by ANBU ninjas.

Now that the matter of the shadow clone's training has been exposed, there can only be one possibility.

That means that old bastard Hiruzen Sarutobi has started sending people to monitor me again.

[But it's also possible that he wasn't a ninja, because Naruto didn't feel that familiar sense of being watched.]

That means he's a commoner, and not far from where he lives.

This is the lightest form of surveillance; at most, it just lets them know whether they're home.

[If he were to delve a little deeper, Naruto was confident he could immediately find out who was monitoring him and where they were.]

Naruto knew this was the old man's final test.

It clearly wants to inherit its mantle.

Kurenai Yuhi: "I knew it."

Mitarashi Anko: "Damn it, did that old man have Yugao disguise herself as a commoner and live nearby?"

Uzuki Yugao: "It seems that's the case. I just don't know if the mission is simply to keep an eye on Naruto's movements, or to find an opportunity to get close to him."

Suddenly.

Maoyue Xiyan's whole body was shocked.

Wait a minute, Naruto with black frames seems to have changed a bit.

He wants to revive the vortex...

Follow your own personality.

If the mission involves finding an opportunity to get close to Naruto with black frames.

In his own way... he would definitely try to get Naruto's attention in black frames by any means possible.

Judging from the current development of the Black Frame World, anything that could attract Naruto's attention must be related to that aspect.

Finished!

This task could very well get me killed!

The shadow clone remained at home as usual.

[However, the scope of our focus has narrowed considerably.]

In fact, Naruto had originally planned to go to the Ninja Academy himself.

The back mountain area is simply too vast; he can't possibly seal everything off without revealing his identity.

In this way, the ninja academy is actually a good training ground.

[Ino and her two companions, along with Hinata, are all heirs of powerful ninja clans, so naturally they have elders to guide their training.]

But Tenten, Sakura, and Lee are not.

Naruto happens to have a few experiments to try.

For a long time to come, Naruto will no longer use Shadow Clones to attend the Ninja Academy.

Instead, the shadow clone used its transformation ability to go to the back mountain to train.

"Damn it, why is Naruto so arrogant?"
