Naruto, what kind of Hokage would you be if you didn't roll around!

However, once you relax, you want to start over...

That would be as difficult as climbing to the heavens!

Naruto is currently in this state.

He had finally managed to have a hearty meal and recover from his previous exhaustion, but the system was forcing him to start cultivating immediately, which he found unbearable.

[Warning! Countdown to the Lightning Release baptism: 2...1...]

【0! 】

Naruto gritted his teeth, determined not to continue training. He was prepared to be electrocuted, his muscles tensed, and his features contorted in pain...

The next moment.

sizzle-

hum! ! !

The baptism of lightning has arrived as promised!

A violent electric current instantly swept through his entire body. Naruto felt as if every one hundred and thirty trillion cells in his body were being pricked by needles, and then it exploded completely!

This intense pain is simply unbearable for ordinary people.

Even if Naruto is exceptionally talented, even if he possesses the bloodline power of the Uzumaki clan, even if he is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, he still cannot escape this most direct pain.

"Ahhh-"

Naruto instantly let out a hysterical scream that echoed throughout the night sky of Konoha Village.

However, this is only the beginning...

[The baptism of lightning continues...]

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

Naruto, clinging to his last bit of stubbornness, attempted to withstand the onslaught of lightning, but he soon realized how naive and childish he had been...

Clearly, this happened more than once.

As long as you don't cooperate, the "baptism" will continue to come down!

Who can bear this? !

Naruto still wanted to fight to the death, to live on despite the odds...

suddenly.

"Damn Naruto! Get back to training!"

Naruto was startled.

"what sound?!"

"This isn't the system's voice in my head..."

"You...who are you?!"

……

Inside Naruto's body, in the spiritual space sealed by the Eight Trigrams.

The legendary calamity, the nine-tailed fox spirit Kurama, possessed the power to destroy the world. He originally lived a peaceful and uneventful life.

Ever since he was sealed away by that damned Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, many years ago, Kurama has been forced to live a miserable life inside that brat Naruto Uzumaki, without any freedom.

Although these days were painful, over time, Nine Lamas gradually got used to them and was forced to accept them.

Although he never gave up hope.

While leaking chakra through the Eight Trigrams Seal was a well-thought-out plan by Minato Namikaze, it was also a double-edged sword.

His chakra is extremely evil and full of malevolence, which will subtly influence Naruto's will.

If this continues, one day he will completely go berserk, and I will have the opportunity to take over his body, escape again, and regain my freedom!

Although it may take a long time, it is nothing to Kurama, a tailed beast that has no concept of death, can be reborn constantly, and has lived for thousands of years.

However, the peaceful days were suddenly shattered.

On this day, Nine Lamas was still fast asleep in the mental seal space.

I didn't offend anyone.

Suddenly……

sizzle-

Rumble!

A violent bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the sky, scorching me to a crisp as I slept!

Even Kurama, who was feared throughout the entire ninja world, couldn't help but scream in agony as he was struck!

This power of lightning seems to be able to transcend everything, directly descending upon both the body and mind at the same time, making it simply unbearable!

Nine Lamas was both in pain and angry, and immediately wanted to find out what had happened.

Soon, he discovered that Naruto had a new entity called "System".

Even the Nine Lamas didn't know what it was.

However, this thing has incredible power, possessing unimaginable might!

He forced Naruto to train relentlessly, and if he disobeyed, he would immediately issue a warning and launch the so-called "baptism of lightning"!

Upon realizing this, Nine Lamas was both shocked and furious!

Whether Naruto rolls up or not is none of my business, and whether he becomes Hokage or not is even less of my concern, but you can't electrocute him while you electrocute me too!

Kurama is definitely much stronger than Naruto.

However, firstly, he only possessed half of the Yang Nine-Tails' chakra; secondly, his power had been suppressed and bound by the Eight Trigrams Seal; and thirdly, this kind of lightning release baptism was practically "true damage," completely ignoring defense and reaching straight to the soul!

In this way, Kurama's suffering was even greater than Naruto's!

He never wanted to pay any attention to this brat, but now he had no choice but to keep a close eye on Naruto's every move, his hair standing on end.

Every time the system warning sounded, Nine-Tailed Fox couldn't help but tremble!

Fortunately, Naruto was also afraid of that kind of pain, and he had been training desperately all day.

This relieved Nine Lama.

But now...

After dinner, that bastard Naruto actually started to rebel, completely oblivious to the danger!

Before the Nine Lamas could make a move.

The raging lightning bolts struck down again!

Instantly, his fur exploded, terrifying electric currents surged through his body, and the intense pain was unbearable even for this thousand-year-old fox...

Even more frightening is...

That bastard Naruto is still being stubborn!

And so, the second wave of baptism immediately descended!

Kurama's suffering was even greater than Naruto's!

He could endure it, but Kurama couldn't hold back any longer, so for the first time ever, he roared at Naruto.

"Damn Naruto! Get back to training!"

"And you damned system!"

"If that brat isn't trying, why don't you shock him instead of me?!"

Chapter 7 Let's set a small goal first...

Although Naruto vaguely knew that there seemed to be some monster lurking inside him.

But it wasn't until now that he truly confirmed it.

"You...who are you?!"

Kurama, enduring the baptism of lightning, roared angrily, "You wretched brat!"

"Stop talking nonsense! Start cultivating now!"

Actually, Naruto had already reached his limit. Although he was panicked, he immediately and instinctively shouted, "Okay, okay! I understand!"

"Fine, I'll fix it!"

The system's punishment stopped instantly.

Naruto was panting heavily; the strength he had just regained had been greatly depleted again...

He dared not argue any longer and immediately began practicing the chakra refining technique.

Fortunately, he had already been training for a day. Whether it was lunchtime or every break between classes, Naruto never stopped refining his chakra.

Now, his chakra refining technique proficiency has exceeded 60!

This was the first subject he passed.

Therefore, Naruto's entry into the Chakra Refining Technique is now going much more smoothly than he imagined.

The efficiency was beyond imagination...

"what?!"

"When did my chakra refining technique become so powerful?!"

Although Naruto was still shaken, he also felt a bittersweet joy at his progress...

Nine Lamas, however, was even less capable than him.

At this moment, its fur bristled and spread out, its eyes widened in anger, and its fox pupils were completely red, burning with blazing flames!

"asshole……"

"If this continues, I'm afraid I'll be electrocuted before I can even take over this brat's body!"

"Damn system, what is its background?"

"I've lived for over a thousand years and have never heard of such a thing..."

Nine Lama was annoyed and lost in thought, but then forced himself to calm down.

"Should we have a proper talk with that brat?"

"No... never mind, I won't trust humans!"

"However, I don't want to experience any more lightning-style baptisms..."

"Looks like I'll have to cooperate with that brat for now..."

Over the years, Kurama has been exploiting the "loopholes" in the Eight Trigrams Seal to continuously leak his chakra and malice to Naruto.

Although this was Minato Namikaze's original intention—to let Naruto gradually master the Nine-Tails' chakra and use it for his own purposes—the current initial stage would actually have a disruptive effect on Naruto's training.

Naruto is called the "underdog" largely because of this.

but……

Kurama is now afraid of the baptism of lightning release and intends to stop disturbing Naruto's chakra and training, which can be said to have solved the problem at its source.

This was a change that even the system couldn't have predicted.

……

"what?"

"what happened?"

"My chakra extraction seems to be going more smoothly?"

"I used to always feel like I was being disturbed, but now it seems to have completely disappeared!"

Naruto was overjoyed. His proficiency in Chakra Extraction Technique had already exceeded 60 points, and now that the external force was no longer interfering, his Chakra extraction became much more efficient!

The whole day, plus two hours at noon and a few breaks of more than an hour between classes, is far from eight hours.
