Naruto: Two opponents versus Naruto, Konoha panics!

It wasn't her.

Naruto secretly shook his head.

[That familiar yet inexplicably warm feeling I just experienced.]

[It wasn't this woman who came from; it was someone else, likely hidden among these hundred or so genin.]

Naruto wasn't in a hurry.

[After all, there are only so many people. If the opponent uses even a little chakra, he can immediately pinpoint their location.]

However, Naruto is currently showing some interest in that little girl among the Amegakure ninja.

[The opponent seemed to have noticed the several targets in their direction and became wary, their chakra leaking out.]

Kagura's Mind's Eye immediately sensed the difference in the chakra within him.

["This feeling... seems to contain a trace of space-time chakra."]

"It seems she has a good talent for space-time ninjutsu."

[Unfortunately, he didn't master any advanced space-time ninjutsu.]

[That makes sense. He's still quite young; starting to cultivate too early would do more harm than good.]

[The probability of Hanzo the Salamander dying is very high.]

[“During this Chunin Exams…those two genin are still wearing the outfits from when Hanzo the Salamander was around…”]

[It seems the current rulers of Amegakure are using this as a cover-up for Hanzo's death.]

【"dawn?"】

"No rush, the focus right now is on Konoha and Sunagakure."

"Amegakure is right there; there's no escaping it. We'll go there when the time is right."

As Naruto observed the hydrangea, the hydrangea also sensed his presence and began to observe the blond boy who seemed to be the leader of the Konoha genin.

Their eyes met.

[The hydrangea paused for a moment, then lowered its head slightly, no longer daring to look directly at Naruto.]

Naruto smiled and looked away.

She's still a somewhat naive young girl.

Inside the sealed space, the great fox smirked and said, "His spatial and temporal talent is quite good. He might be a great asset in the future, and if he has offspring with him, the probability of their descendants possessing spatial and temporal talent is extremely high."

"You yourself are already quite good."

Naruto didn't respond, but he sensed something strange about the big fox's tone.

[And lately, he's been hiding in the corner of the sealed space, tinkering with something.]

[Naruto secretly watched; it seems to be some kind of transformation jutsu... and it's semi-permanent.]

[Considering the fact that the Great Fox itself is a chakra body...]

In short, Naruto only glanced at it a few times, but he could roughly guess the principle behind the technique. He deduced that there was probably no danger, and even if there was, it would only consume a small amount of chakra and would not damage his core essence.

Therefore, we'll leave it at that and not concern ourselves with it anymore.

Otherwise, the big fox might accuse the fox of having no privacy.

"Everyone, please don't think I'm exaggerating."

"I've participated in the Chunin Exams six times."

"As a senior student, my advice should be quite credible, right?"

"Besides, I'm also a Konoha ninja."

"In short, this is my seventh time participating in the Chunin Exams."

Kabuto Yakushi was still rambling on and on.

Neji frowned. "The seventh time?"

"No wonder you've never become a Chunin."

"This time won't be any different." Tian Tian looked at him with hostility.

This person seems like a kind-hearted person, genuinely trying to help them, but in reality, they've been constantly setting traps for them.

Furthermore, his appearance has led to increasing hostility towards this new group of Konoha members.

Kabuto's smile froze.

Looking at the boys and girls before her, she saw that they all harbored some degree of hostility towards her.

He sighed inwardly.

It wasn't as simple as he had imagined.

These kids are more than just talented.

【Hahaha~】

Kabuto gave an awkward yet polite smile, preventing the atmosphere from becoming awkward.

As a double agent... no, a multi-faceted spy, he naturally couldn't just give up like that.

At the same time, they are constantly using language to avoid potential conflict with Naruto's group.

Naruto glanced at Kabuto Yakushi, who was like a persistent leech.

【Yakushi Kabuto...】

[With a slight furrow of his brow and a moment of contemplation, Naruto remembered where he had heard that name before.]

【“Orphanage…Director…Pharmacist Nonou.”】

【Yakushi Kabuto?】

【Yakushi Nonou, a former member of the Root organization.】

[Later, he became the director of an orphanage... seemingly recruiting new members for the Root organization...screening talented children.]

[But it's also quite possible that Yakushi Nonou wants to break away from Root...]

Naruto absorbed a lot of diverse information.

Moreover, many of them require careful selection and examination.

But we can still get a general understanding.

"Actually, I could roughly guess... This is the seventh time already, I'm aware of my limitations."

"It's just... I'm really unwilling to accept it."

Kabuto was still trying to find topics to talk about.

Finally, even Ino lost her patience.

【"hehe."】

"You say we argue, but why do I feel like you're the noisiest one?"

"I've tried six times and still haven't become a Chunin... Hehehe~"

["Intentionally making everyone overlook your strength, while deliberately letting everyone know that we are newcomers, to draw attention to you..."]

Before Ino could finish speaking, Kabuto Yakushi immediately gave a wry smile.

"That's amazing!"

"I didn't expect you guys to have seen through me."

"As compensation, I have a lot of information about the genin who participated in the Chunin Exams."

"Each of you may choose one."

Upon hearing this, the cockroaches tensed slightly, watching Yakushi Kabuto, who seemed completely unfazed, having found a new topic of conversation while simultaneously rummaging through his robes for items.

A hint of apprehension crept into the cockroaches' eyes.

This guy... is no ordinary person.

Kabuto seemed oblivious.

[He took out his Ninja Awareness Card without further ado.]

"This guy..."

Kankuro narrowed his eyes slightly.

"It seems that the Konoha genin, aside from taking action, are currently unable to do anything about him."

Temari, standing to the side, also glanced sideways, lingering for a moment on Yakushi Kabuto's retreating figure.

"Damn it... Uchiha Sasuke... don't let me get a chance, and that damned yellow-haired kid from Konoha too!"

Temari: "..."

Just pretend you didn't hear that; after all, she's got blond hair too.

Gaara crossed his arms, staring blankly at Naruto below, his gaze icy.

It seemed as if nothing could affect him.

However, at this moment, Gaara's mind was filled with Shukaku's shrill voice.

His words were filled with exasperation.

Clearly, Gaara has once again ignored the 'deal' it proposed.

Even if Gaara were to attack Naruto, it would be according to his own conscience; as for Shukaku's suggestion, he simply ignored it.

"Heh... I didn't expect to be ignored," the piano mallet chuckled.

"In that case, let's go play with them for a while."

[Tos the Anvil sneered, then vanished from the spot.]
