Whether the ninja world is in chaos or not, I, Naruto, have the final say

They are all tiny shadow clones less than ten centimeters long!

"Ho...ho..."

Naruto was sweating profusely. He picked up a shadow clone that kept nagging him and showed it with a smile on his face: "Success!"

Little Naruto's shadow clone: ​​"Da De Ba Yo!"

Jiraiya's expression was very interesting. He picked up a small shadow clone and fiddled with it twice.

I received a series of "Debayo".

"Not even an ounce of intelligence."

Jiraiya: "...No, it's a failure no matter how you look at it, right?"

He broke the shadow clone's neck.

The latter turned into a cloud of smoke and dissipated.

"This is just... the first step..."

Naruto was sweating all over, with a satisfied look on his face and a twitching thumbs up: "Once I improve it a little bit, I can..."

Swish!

He rolled his eyes and passed out.

More than fifty shadow clones were released one after another.

Jiraiya half-knelt down and gently supported Naruto who was falling to the ground.

"What a hard-working kid..."

"Even if you win."

Chapter 12

Sealed space, Naruto sings.

This time he wasn't even singing solo, there was a bunch of little Narutos less than ten centimeters tall under his feet, accompanying him non-stop.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

Humming the tune of a classic piece of music from his previous life, Naruto deliberately changed the lyrics.

The wise shadow clones did not disappoint him. Even though they had low intelligence, they still followed the rhythm. It seemed that they still had instincts in this regard.

By the way, in the original work, Naruto's catchphrase 'Debayo' was inherited from his mother... He can accept that bloodline can be inherited, but it's really unbearable that a catchphrase can be inherited.

When he was one or two years old, Naruto paid special attention to this matter and forced himself to give up this habit.

After learning Shadow Clone, he realized that he had not quit.

This thing is deeply engraved in the DNA, carried forward by a group of small shadow clones, and then used by Naruto to torment the Nine-Tails.

"...Da~de~ba~yo~!"

The song is over.

[Completed selection of "Provocation", [Extraordinary]]

[Rewards: Chakra Quality +1, Song Fu +2]

Naruto released his shadow clone and it dissipated in a puff of smoke.

So, what was the reaction of the song's only audience?

crunch--

The nine-tailed fox sharpened its claws, its eyes were red, and it was filled with murderous intent.

But this time, surprisingly, it endured it and did not roar about eating people again.

The fox forced a smile on his face.

"Little devil, I saw it all..."

"You learned the Shadow Clone Technique, right?"

"Although it has some flaws, I believe you will be able to make up for it soon."

Naruto got goosebumps after hearing these words.

What’s wrong? Has this vixen lost her mind?

Not only did he not threaten me, he even praised me.

The Nine-Tails didn't stop, and continued to bewitch: "Shadow Clone... This ninjutsu is very special. After the clone disappears, the memory can return to the original body."

"That is to say, if you use shadow clones to practice ninjutsu, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort... No, you only need to put in one point of effort to get one hundred or one thousand points of gain!"

"It's a handy trick, you should try it."

Naruto became more suspicious and took a step back silently.

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.

"Understood!"

Naruto said seriously: "When I learn the Shadow Clone, I will perform a proper chorus for you!"

Finally, Kyuubi couldn't hold it anymore: "...Get lost! I don't need you!"

"You sing a piece of history!"

Naruto took the initiative to retreat amid the deafening roar of the fox spirit; when he opened his eyes again, it was already morning as expected.

Wait, a strange ceiling...

There is a smell of disinfectant in the air.

There's no mistake, this is Konoha Hospital!

"Hey, you're awake."

A deep voice came from beside him. Naruto just turned his head and saw Jiraiya next to the bed, picking up a bowl of ramen takeout...

Suck!

After two or three mouthfuls, the bowl was empty.

The remaining fragrance in the air whetted Naruto's appetite.

"I'm so hungry." Naruto said.

Jiraiya looked away, his face not blushing and his heart not beating: "Really? Then go and have breakfast by yourself later."

Naruto shouted in shock: "I'm a patient!"

"You are a sick patient!" Jiraiya said bluntly, "You are neither sick nor injured. I don't know what you are doing in this hospital."

Naruto:"???"

Oh, no, why am I in the hospital?

I remembered that I practiced too hard yesterday and passed out.

However, as a Jinchūriki, if you are not sick, no matter whether it is an external or internal injury, it will basically be healed after a good night's sleep.

"Oh my god! Why am I in the hospital?!"

Naruto thought about it for two seconds and was shocked.

He quickly threw back the quilt, and a kid jumped onto the window sill, saying anxiously, "Old White-haired Deng! Run! I don't have medical insurance, and the medical expenses for a hospital stay will be extremely expensive!"

...Is this what you care about?

I've never heard of a Jinchūriki having to pay for medical treatment!

No, what is health insurance?

Before Jiraiya could say anything, he saw Naruto jump out of the window and land smoothly on the second floor.

Then he kept gesturing at himself.

Signaling to catch up quickly!

"Don't call me 'White-haired Old Deng', you little brat!"

Jiraiya called out, and then he climbed down the window, put Naruto under his arm, and corrected his ideas: "I am one of the three ninjas, the Toad Sage Jiraiya..."

"This is not important. I think your values ​​seem to be a bit problematic! Naruto, remember this well. If you get hurt or sick, come to the hospital for treatment immediately!"

"Even if you still have a breath left, Konoha Hospital will do its best to save you. Do you understand?"

Jiraiya was almost scared to death by Naruto's attitude.

I was afraid that this silly child would get sick and have to bear it by himself, so I refused to go to the hospital.

"I understand!" Naruto nodded decisively: "If you say so, then I feel relieved!"

Well, that's good...

and many more?

There is something wrong with what this kid said!

I hope I am overthinking it.

------

At the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's special training ground.

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

After breakfast, and after another half an hour of hard work, Naruto successfully released his shadow clone again.

Smaller version.

When the smoke cleared, Jiraiya looked down and saw little Narutos, each about ten centimeters tall, crawling and rolling all over the ground.

"I'm so happy!"

"I am a shadow clone!"

"You've grown taller!"

Naruto nodded with satisfaction, smugly saying, "That's remarkable progress. I am worthy of it!"

Jiraiya sighed as he looked at the shadow clones rolling around the training ground.

"Yes, yes, there is progress..."

"How about you do it again?"

Compared to yesterday, both the time of releasing ninjutsu and the power of released ninjutsu have indeed improved a lot.

But this efficiency is really killing me.

Oh, I'm tired, let's take a rest.

"You practice on your own first. I'll go lie down next to you for a while."
