Naruto: The Infinite New World

Chapter 525 Finding the Island

"Lightning Release: Chidori!"

The lightning emitted a piercing cry, like the chirping of countless birds.

Sasuke, his hand crackling with lightning, charged toward the blue monster. The lightning in his hand instantly pierced through the monster's body, and the intense lightning quickly melted away a patch of flesh.

"It's too big."

Sasuke frowned; it was impossible to penetrate.

"Waaah!!" the blue monster screamed.

"Rasengan!!"

Naruto leaped high into the air, slamming the blue Rasengan into the head of the blue monster.

"Bang!"

The powerful force knocked the blue monster to the ground.

"Go to hell!!"

Sakura punched the blue monster in the chin.

With a loud "boom," it was knocked backward and crashed heavily onto the water.

The blue monster rolled its eyes and fell unconscious, its body floating naturally on the water's surface.

"So weak."

Sasuke stood on the blue monster's body.

Despite its enormous size, it was much weaker than expected.

Or rather, in the ninja world, those with large physiques are not this weak.

Naruto crouched down on the other person's eyelids and poked at them with his fingers.

"This must taste delicious."

He was drooling as he spoke.

"Coo coo".

Naruto's stomach rumbled with hunger again.

As if it were a signal, the monster quickly opened its eyes, and all three of them changed their expressions and flipped off the monster onto the water.

A gigantic monster emerged from the water, revealing its massive body.

"It's not that simple after all."

Lightning erupted from Sasuke's body.

"Wait a moment."

Sakura noticed something was wrong and looked at the monster in front of her with a puzzled expression.

"It seems to be begging for mercy."

The monster had its hands in front of its chest and nodded quickly when it heard Sakura's words, as if afraid that if it was too slow it would become food.

"A ninja beast?"

Naruto stroked his chin, looking the enormous monster up and down.

"Could you take us to a populated island nearby?"

The monster hesitated. It knew the nearest island, but the atmosphere there made it feel dangerous.

"Coo coo!"

Naruto's stomach rumbled again at an inopportune moment.

The blue monster nodded frantically, understanding the difference between dying sooner or later.

"Sasuke, look how scared you've made it! Quickly put away your Lightning Release."

Naruto shouted loudly.

The double stare from Sasuke and Sakura that he received in return—who exactly scared him?

"Wow!! That was fast!!"

Naruto was sitting on the top of the blue monster's head. Although the sea surface around him didn't seem to change, the strong wind made him feel the speed.

Sasuke and Sakura clung tightly to the monster's beard, both staring at Naruto with twitching lips.

Only this idiot wouldn't be afraid of this at all.

Sasuke's gaze shifted to the monster's wounds, which were visibly healing from the lightning release attack.

The missing flesh will grow back in no more than three days.

Ordinary ninja beasts cannot achieve this level of skill.

Is it natural energy?

They were exposed to some natural energy while they were at the ninja academy. Although the ninjutsu techniques remained the same, the corresponding education became much more extensive.

As far as he knows.

In addition to its powerful destructive force, natural energy also possesses strong restorative properties.

Organisms that live in abundant natural energy possess extremely strong vitality and powerful resilience.

Looking at the monster's size and its rapidly healing wounds.

Both are very much in line with organisms that live in an area with abundant natural energy.

So, does it live somewhere surrounded by unknown natural energy, or does this planet itself possess extremely rich natural energy?

The former is easier to handle. As long as they reunite with the main force of Konoha and report the information to their superiors, they will surely search for that place quickly.

But what if the whole world were like this?

"Then there should be quite a few strong people in this world."

Sasuke looked serious and glanced at Sakura beside him. Sakura's gaze also fell upon him, and her expression was not good either.

Sakura, a top student, also realized this problem.

If that's the case, it will be difficult for Konoha to compete for anything here.

"Hopefully, no one at the level of a Dharma Body will appear."

There are no Dharma Bodies among the people from the ninja world nowadays. The person in Konoha who is closest to a Dharma Bodhi is their teacher, Uchiha Obito.

Both of them looked at Naruto on the blue monster's head.

"Faster, faster!"

He was excitedly piloting the blue monster.

The two of them sighed simultaneously.

There's no point in relying on him.

We need to regroup with the main force as soon as possible.

Soon an island came closer and closer, and the three of them could see the shape of the island.

"I'm going to have a big meal!!"

Naruto brandished his fist; he could now devour the blue monster below.

The blue monster shuddered, and for some unknown reason, its speed increased slightly.

Just as the three of them were rapidly approaching the island.

The blue monster suddenly stopped, and Naruto, caught off guard, was thrown out by inertia and fell into the water with a "plop".

"You bastard, what are you doing?!"

Naruto, dissatisfied, floated up from the water, his feet on the sea, and waved his fists at the blue monster.

Just then.

"boom!"

A loud bang was heard.

The three of them looked at the distant island at the same time.

Intense flames covered half the island, with thick black smoke clashing with the fire.

"Is there a battle taking place there?"

Sasuke's expression turned serious.

"Should we still go over there?"

Sakura asked with a serious expression.

Even Naruto's expression turned serious.

"We should go and see what happens if it's someone from Konoha who's involved in the conflict."

And that thick, dark smoke... could it be from the Land of Rain?

After all, darkness has always been the symbol of the Land of Rain.

Sasuke and Sakura nodded in agreement.

Despite the potential danger, both of them looked at Naruto.

Anyway, if Naruto unleashes his power, the problem shouldn't be too big.

The three jumped off the blue monster.

"You can go back now. We can handle the rest ourselves."

Naruto waved at the blue monster and said.

The blue monster nodded quickly, turned and plunged into the sea, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

The three exchanged a glance and began to conceal their presence as they sped towards the island.

The three were in the middle of darkness and flames, and they ran quickly to the island without encountering any obstacles.

"This power is truly formidable."

Sasuke watched as darkness and flame clashed, both forces equivalent to powerful ninjutsu covering a wide area.

This level of strength is at least at the Kage level.

After all, only Kage-level powerhouses can use ninjutsu with such a wide range.

The three of them moved forward silently.

After climbing onto a piece of wreckage, I finally saw the two sides fighting.

A bearded man with a wide-open mouth, laughing, was grabbing a shirtless young man.

Just as the three of them held their breath and stared intently.

The bearded man suddenly turned to look at them.
