Naruto: I made you Naruto, and you've become blond?

Chapters 134, 135, and 136: The Silver-Haired, Dark-Skinned Girl from Kumogakure Seeks Help

"Damn it! Nikai died at the hands of those Xuanyuan people who can control these parasitic explosive insects, is it possible that even Rakai can't be saved now?!"

The Fourth Raikage, A, who frequently appears in black and white comic books and plays the role of an evil minotaur, has his dark face contorted in madness due to pain.

"As the Raikage, I can't do anything at all!"

Beside her, a shapely figure wore a fishnet blouse embroidered with sexy red trim, clinging to her chest that slightly revealed her alluring cleavage.

The shapely, bodycon skirt accentuated her full, pert buttocks, and the dark-skinned beauty, Mabui, with her exotic charm, pursed her plump lips.

Her pretty face also showed disappointment and pain at being powerless to help her companion who was about to die.

With a look of pity in his eyes, he gazed at the Fourth Raikage, A, who was clenching his bronze fists, which were the size of sandbags, so tightly that his knuckles were cracking and creaking, as if he was in unbearable pain.

"Lord Ai! You've done your best, and you went to Sugi Village to seize their secret scroll for the village's benefit!"

"It was unavoidable that you were hunted down by the Xuanyuan followers they employed, and Rakai won't blame you!"

Rakai, whose chest had bulged with a hideous, enormous, worm-like tumor, nodded weakly and instead comforted the Fourth Raikage beside him.

This made the black-skinned Raikage, who was as strong as a wild beast and had bulging muscles, even more pained and remorseful.

The temporary hiding place of the Hidden Cloud Village in the jungle was shrouded in an atmosphere of sadness and pain.

The Fourth Raikage suddenly raised his massive head, a resolute glint in his eyes, and roared.

"Mabui! Use the Ninja Art: Heavenly Transfer Technique to teleport me to Konoha! Maybe we can still get Tsunade to rescue Rakai!"

"If we wait like this, once that bug grows bigger, Rakayi will definitely die!"

"As your boss, I cannot allow myself to sit idly by and watch my subordinates slowly die!"

The Ninja Art: Heavenly Delivery Technique is a secret space-time ninjutsu of the Hidden Cloud Village. Currently, only a handful of Jonin in the Hidden Cloud Village have mastered this technique, with Mabui being one of the best among them.

This space-time ninjutsu can ignore distance! It is not limited by any conditions or areas, and can instantly teleport any item to any designated location!

It can be described as a god-level skill for transporting strategic materials and military equipment during wartime!

It can only transport inanimate objects! Any living thing, including humans, will be torn apart and die due to the spatial rifts created by the jump in spacetime!

Upon hearing this, Mabui's sexy dark complexion froze for a moment. She then shook her meticulously combed, shoulder-length silver hair and anxiously tried to dissuade her.

"Lord Ai! The only person who has ever successfully used the Heavenly Transfer Technique to move positions is your father, the Third Raikage!"

"Although you inherited the terrifying physical abilities and resilient physique of the Third Raikage!"

"However, the intense friction generated in the air during the execution of the Heavenly Delivery Technique may still cause irreversible damage to your body! Even..."

The blond youths around them, Hii ​​and Rakai, echoed Mabui's worried sentiments and tried to dissuade the Fourth Raikage, A.

The Fourth Raikage, Aigumo, wore a resolute expression. "Say no more! Mabui..."

Before the words were even finished, the forest not far away suddenly began to shake violently, as if a thousand-pound weight had fallen from it. In an instant, the ground beneath their feet began to tremble violently, like an earthquake.

A dense flock of birds and beasts, nestled in the lush forest, were startled and took flight into the sky.

Then came a deafening crash, like a mountain falling to the ground.

"What's going on!?"

"Did those Xuanyuan followers track us down and discover us?!"

In the hidden jungle, Rakayi and the blond youth Xiqi were both startled, their faces showing panic.

The group from Kumogakure quickly peered through the gaps in the trees, and even the powerful Fourth Raikage, A, couldn't help but shrink his tiny black eyes.

Not far from the deep forest, a colossal blue-white structure, resembling a series of rolling hills, stood majestically.

The endless white expanse, like pure white clouds, stretches to the horizon, forming a boundless blue-white mountain range.

"What...what is that?! It's a monster! How could there be such a huge creature?!"

Enduring the pain from the strange insects that were constantly draining his life force from his chest, Rakai lay on the ground, his face filled with shock, weakly muttering in disbelief.

The blond youth, hope, who was always known as the Raikage's left hand, narrowed his blue eyes to pinpoints, speechless with astonishment.

As an elite Jonin in Kumogakure, he was quite knowledgeable, but this was the first time he had ever seen a creature with such a huge and terrifying size.

The Fourth Raikage, A, had a dark, solemn expression. His eyes were fixed intently on the soft, white, hill-like creature not far away, and he spoke in a deep voice.

"No! That's a summoning beast!!"

"Even though we were dozens of kilometers apart, I could still sense the powerful chakra aura unique to that summoning beast!"

"To be able to possess and summon such a terrifying summoning beast, whose size far surpasses even that of the Gyu-oni..."

"This is far beyond what an ordinary Jonin could do! I wonder which ninja village this powerful ninja came from!"

The Fourth Raikage, A, clenched his massive, bull-head-like fists, his eyes gleaming with the fiery desire to fight a formidable foe, mixed with a hint of caution and apprehension.

Mabui gazed into the distance for a while, then suddenly seemed to remember something, her eyes snapped open, and she exclaimed in surprise,

"Lord Ai! That's a slug! Tsunade's summoning beast from Konoha! The legendary slug!"

"Only Tsunade can summon that slug! Rakai is saved!!"

"Slug?!" The blond youth, Hi, and the Fourth Raikage, A, were both taken aback when they heard Mabui's joyful shout.

Yes! The soft white and blue color scheme, and the two soft tentacles on the head of that huge monster!

It does indeed look very similar to the slug summoning beast that Tsunade is said to have come from one of the three holy lands!

No wonder they didn't react immediately; Tsunade had been semi-retired for decades and was wandering the ninja world.

There are indeed very few people in the ninja world who have seen Tsunade's summoning beast, the slug, still alive.

Furthermore, the slug summoning beast, which was the size of a palm and resembled a snail, was completely different in size from the one in the information scroll about Tsunade that was sealed in the Hidden Cloud Village!

No one would immediately make that connection!

The Fourth Raikage, A, gave Mabui an approving look. It was all thanks to Mabui, the strategist of Kumogakure, otherwise they would have really missed this only chance to save Rakai!

The Fourth Raikage, A, beamed with ecstatic joy on his rugged, bronze face. "If Tsunade is there, I'll go and fetch her right now, no matter what!"

He turned around, glanced at the weak Rakayi lying on the ground, and said in a strong voice before preparing to leave, "Rakayi, hang in there!"

With silver hair, dark skin, and a shapely bottom beneath her pencil skirt, Mabui quickly called out to the Fourth Raikage.

"Lord Ai! Wait a moment, let me go and fetch Tsunade from Konoha!"

Upon hearing Mabui's shout, the Fourth Raikage, Eleking, who had been taking a swift step, immediately stopped, showing his great reliance on Nobuna, one of the few strategists in Kumogakure.

Mabui hesitated for a moment, her clear voice carrying a sense of calm wisdom, like the crashing of glaciers.

"Lord Ai! Let me go and beg Tsunade from Konoha!"

The dark-skinned Raikage, Aina, frowned, his gruff voice filled with confusion. "Mabui? Rakai is on the verge of death; he won't last much longer!"

"I have Lightning Release Chakra Mode, which is the fastest! I can bring Tsunade back the fastest!"

Mabui's sapphire-blue eyes held a resolute glint as she shook her silver hair, styled in a neat, simple bun.

"Lord Ai! Princess Tsunade has a bad temper and is difficult to talk to."

"If I were to encounter someone with the same short temper as you again, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to reach an agreement. It would be better if I went instead; it would be easier to get Tsunade's assistance!"

The Fourth Raikage was taken aback by what he heard. Despite being directly contradicted by his subordinate and having his temper pointed out, he showed no sign of anger or embarrassment.

Ai, on the contrary, scratched the back of his head with his arm, which was as strong as a buffalo's thigh and covered with veins, and nodded in a deep voice in agreement.

"That's right! Mabui, you're right. Then hurry! You must bring Tsunade!"

"Agree to any request Tsunade makes! No matter the cost!"

The latest novel is first published here!

"Yes, Lord Ai!"

……

Naruto felt himself being enveloped in a soft white expanse.

A warm, moist, and soft sensation surged in from all directions, seemingly without end.

The feeling of being enveloped in soft, cozy surroundings gave him a warmth akin to returning to his hometown.

Naruto was stunned.

Wasn't he, Tsunade, Shizune, and Kurenai still in the forest on their way to the capital of the Land of Fire?

That was the first time he had used the summoning technique that Tsunade had taught him.

How come after the black ninja-style handprints spread out in all directions after being pressed on the ground?

All he could hear was the whooshing sound of the wind, and then it seemed as if something enormous fell from the sky and crashed down on him, completely covering him.

Why is everything around me pure white, soft, sticky, and bouncy like a mattress?

Naruto suddenly had a guess about the situation: Could this soft, squishy thing wrapping around him be the Living Slug Sage?!

Tsunade's summoning beasts, which are the sages of the three sacred lands of Shikkotsu Forest, belong to a race called slugs in the ninja world.

However, she was the only slug in that sacred wet bone forest; her real name was Live Slug.

Before Naruto could react, he heard Tsunade's deep, clear voice, a voice that was both mature and gentle, as she was also slumped in the endless white river of water.

"Lord Live Slug! Could you please shrink your body a bit? It's not very convenient like this!"

"Yes, Lady Tsunade!"

Then, with a loud "bang," the entire forest experienced the same intense, earth-shaking tremor as before.

Then, that warm, moist sensation that tightly enveloped Naruto vanished without a trace.

The soft, pure white slug that had been pressing down on Naruto and the others vanished without a trace.

Only a small, cute, soft creature, about the size of a palm and resembling a blue and white slug, appeared before Naruto's eyes.

"Oh my god~~?"

The two soft, long antennae on the Slug Fairy's head twitched, and a sweet, melodious, gentle voice rang out.

"Was it this little kid who summoned me? That's quite unexpected!"

"I don't recall ever making a contract with such an adorable child~"

The soft, white, petite slug sage slowly climbed onto Naruto's shoulder as it spoke.

Despite its small size, it now appeared to be half the size of Naruto's head, with its two soft, flexible tentacles swaying back and forth, occasionally touching Naruto's cheeks.

Naruto's gentle voice melted his heart.

Tsunade straightened up, her delicate face showing a mixture of complex emotions and shock as she looked at Naruto, who was sizing up the slug sage who had shrunk and was perched on her shoulder.

This kid... this is the first time I've taught him, and it's also the first time he's ever come into contact with and used psychic magic!

I originally only intended to let him try it a couple of times to familiarize himself with the hand seals for summoning, but I didn't expect him to successfully summon the Living Slug Sage in one go!

Although the Summoning Jutsu is only C-rank in difficulty, contracting a powerful summoning beast like the Slug Sage makes it almost as difficult as a typical S-rank ninjutsu!

And... if it wasn't an illusion, Naruto just summoned the entire body of the Living Slug Sage!

She had been to the Wet Bone Forest, where the Living Slug Fairy lived, several times.

As one of the few true sages in the ninja world who has survived for over a thousand years,

The Living Slug Immortal's body is so enormous that it almost covers and fills the entire Wet Bone Forest Holy Land!

Even with the vast chakra bloodline of the Senju clan, he could only barely summon a portion of the Slug Sage's enormous clone!

If I remember correctly, he hasn't yet been able to control the Nine-Tails' chakra within him.

So, this brat, who is a Jinchūriki, summoned the Slug Sage's true form using only his own chakra?!

Just how much chakra does this kid have?! He's still a kid who hasn't even graduated from the Ninja Academy yet!

Tsunade suppressed the slight turmoil in her heart and quickly and politely stepped forward to introduce Naruto to the Living Slug Sage.

Although the Living Slug Fairy is gentle and easy to talk to, we can't really assume she's not a fairy who has lived for thousands of years.

"I see, so you're Lady Tsunade's new disciple?~"

The Slug Sage, perched on Naruto's shoulder, spoke softly, seemingly lost in thought.

"Nice to meet you, Slug-sama!" Naruto tilted his head and nodded at the soft, white slug on his shoulder.

"Arara~ What a polite and adorable child~"

The slug fairy's gentle voice carried a hint of joy. She had lived alone in the Wet Bone Forest for thousands of years, and in truth, she was quite lonely.

She thoroughly enjoyed chatting with Tsunade, one of her few acquaintances, but Tsunade had rarely summoned her in recent decades...

"But Naruto-sama, you don't need to be so polite in the future, after all, you are Tsunade-sama's disciple~"

Hearing the other person, a thousand-year-old immortal, address him, a little boy, as an adult, Naruto felt a strange unease.

I call you sir, and you call me sir too, so we each speak to each other, right...?
