Witty Naruto Life

Chapter 258 Just how much information does Naruto Uzumaki still have?! (4K)

"Please, Naruto! Save my brother!"

Hokage's office.

Everyone watched as the tall, burly man bowed repeatedly to a young man like a child admitting his mistake.

"I know my request is unreasonable, but he's my brother, I can't just stand by and watch him die!"

“He has suffered since he was a child, but he has a very optimistic attitude, and it is this optimism that has allowed him to persevere until now!”

"Compared to him..."

Ai's voice choked with emotion, while Omoi and Karui beside him, seeing the Raikage's humble attitude, wiped away their tears and sobbed uncontrollably.

Ai knew it would be difficult for him to give Konoha a specific and definite promise, but his attitude was sincere.

If Konoha or Naruto makes any requests afterward, he will definitely do his best to help them... provided that they are willing to believe in him.

A turned to Tsunade: "Hokage, I can't guarantee I can be of any help, but I will try my best!"

He stared longingly at the two of them, then saw the young man on the television slowly speak:
"What did you do early?"

A sudden silence fell over the surroundings.

Naruto's voice carried a hint of coldness: "Didn't we discuss this during our previous online meeting? For the sake of your younger brother's safety, please push these agendas forward with all your might."

"And what was the result? You betrayed us, and now you want to just say a few nice words to get by? There's no such thing as a free lunch."

It's not that Naruto is heartless, it's just that he doesn't appreciate this kind of "craftsmanship" at all.

Even if you bend over like a folding phone, it won't work; what we need is a tangible commitment.

You're the only one having difficulties? Don't we have any?

Naruto looked at the burly man on TV and said coldly, "Here's what we'll do... You immediately copy down a few of your Cloud Village's Lightning Release techniques and present them to us, let's see how sincere you are."

"By the way, the ninjutsu level must be at least B, and it cannot be a universal technique, such as lightning clones, etc."

Although we can't sign an agreement for online TV, we can still showcase it online.

This is somewhat like saying: V me 50 to see my strength.

Even Tsunade was taken aback by these words; she hadn't expected Naruto to make such a request.

You should know that the unique ninjutsu of the ninja village is a secret of the village, so this move is no less than begging someone for a job.

Raikage A reacted much like Tsunade. He opened his mouth, then closed it again, before saying, word by word, "...You can use Lightning Release too?"

"No, I just know that Lightning Release techniques are the most valuable in your Hidden Cloud Village. And didn't you say you'd pay a price to save your brother's life?"

Naruto's implied intention to rip off Kumogakure greatly displeased Karui, who was standing next to A, but she was about to retort when A raised his hand to stop her.

"I understand. How many ninjutsu do you want?"

Naruto chuckled: "That depends on the Raikage's sincerity. Just so you know, I also have a sworn brother who happens to be a Lightning Release ninja."

"Lightning Release ninjutsu, we'll take as many as you have, we'll never have too many!"

There was silence on the other end of the Cloud Recesses' end.

A moment later, Ai said to Naruto on the other end, "Give us two minutes, and I'll give you an answer right away." After saying that, he left the camera's view.

The crowd waiting behind him immediately surrounded him. Most of them were Raikage's confidants, and a few were Killer Bee's supporters.

Everyone was talking about it.

"Lord Raikage, let's use a technique first and see Konoha's reaction."

"Damn it! Doesn't one show that we're not sincere?! What if Konoha isn't happy and it affects Killer Bee's safety?"

"In that case, we'll give you three Lightning Release techniques, but they'll be of lower rank: one B-rank and two C-rank."

"How can this be allowed? Do you think the people of Konoha are all idiots?"

Generally speaking, the level of ninjutsu refers to the difficulty of learning it, and the difficulty of learning ninjutsu is often directly proportional to the power of ninjutsu.

In other words, if you insist on testing the difficulty of learning, you can find a general range.

Ai looked at everyone, took a deep breath, and had her secretary immediately bring out a few sheets of paper.

He then ignored the chatter around him and began to write.

A few minutes later.

"Naruto, here is the Lightning Release technique you requested."

Ai showed the sheets to Naruto one by one, while Shizune quickly copied them down. Time passed quickly, and the copying was completed in no time.

Naruto picked up the paper and Tsunade looked at it. There were four Lightning Release techniques in total. Judging from the names of the ninjutsu, the hand seals, and the training methods, they seemed to be Lightning Release techniques unique to Kumogakure.

In other words, if this is true, then Raikage A essentially ceded a small portion of the ninja village's interests to Konoha.

However, the Eight-Tails also involves the interests of the ninja village, and A regards Killer as his own brother, so making these sacrifices for his brother is entirely worthwhile.

After a quick glance, Naruto continued, "Besides these four Lightning Release techniques, I need a verbal promise from the Raikage that Kumogakure will organize a new online Five Kage meeting and personally overturn the previous resolution."

This is tantamount to slapping Kumogakure in the face, which will weaken its international prestige to some extent and indirectly enhance Konoha's prestige.

But that's the nature of diplomacy. Since Konoha will eventually fall into Naruto's hands, his actions are perfectly justifiable.

Raikage A glared at Naruto, but gritted his teeth, nodded, and said:
"In the name of the Fourth Raikage, I pledge to help Konoha advance its previous agenda,"

"Are you satisfied?"

Naruto looked at Tsunade, who hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Naruto was relieved and said to A, "You can choose to believe what I'm about to say, or you can choose not to believe it."

"According to reliable intelligence, although the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of Kumogakure is a perfect Jinchuriki, he has been kept in Kumogakure by you for many years and is not allowed to leave the village at will. Am I right?"

Ai nodded, then asked with a puzzled look, "What does this have to do with 'Akatsuki'?"

"Yes. Let me finish."

Naruto cleared his throat and continued, "We also learned that the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki likes to sing, dance, and rap, and he even found a rhyming master, right?"

"And you just said that he was killed by a ninja who used explosive clay. Can explosive clay blast a tailed beast to pieces? I have my doubts."

Karui, who was standing to the side, became increasingly anxious as he listened, and quickly asked, "What exactly do you mean?"

"What I mean is, the Jinchuriki might not have been captured by the Akatsuki. He might have faked his death and gone into hiding."

Naruto wasn't guessing randomly; in the original story, Killer Bee faked his death and escaped using his octopus legs.

After hearing this, Ai frowned and said, "Your deduction is too absurd. If Bi faked his death, why wouldn't he come looking for me?"

"As I just mentioned, it's normal for Jinchuriki to feel bored and want to escape after being confined to the village for so long. It's perfect that Akira is here; he can find a chance to sneak out and have some fun,"

"So who could he turn to after escaping the village? Based on his preferences, it's reasonable to deduce that he went to find his rhyming master, since he's been staying in the village for a long time and couldn't possibly have any other connections outside of it,"

"In other words, you can send someone to find the rhyming master now, but I forgot his name. I only know that this master raised a huge... well, raccoon?" Naruto scratched his head. He had forgotten some of the specific details, but anyway, the guy was furry and very big.

Naruto's reasoning left the Cloud Village members stunned. By the end, they couldn't help but exclaim, "Holy crap, how can he make such a reasonable point?!"

He did provide intelligence, but he didn't reveal any information about the enemy (Deidara), so as not to offend Iwagakure. He even gave specific directions for the investigation.

This guy is amazing... The Cloud Village members couldn't help but think this.

After a moment of silence, Lei Yingai couldn't help but ask, "There's a question... how exactly did he fake his death and escape?"

"It seems you don't know much about the Eight-Tails. This guy has many octopus tentacles, and any one of them can be used as a medium for your brother to fake his death and escape. In short, just go to the scene and search for the octopus tentacles and you'll know."

These words silenced everyone in the Hokage's office, and a question inevitably arose in their minds:
How could Naruto know so much about the Eight-Tails?

Just how much information does this guy have in his head?!

Just as everyone remained silent, the Cloud Village Captain standing next to Ai suddenly spoke up: "But... I remember that masked man retrieved the octopus tentacles from the field..."

"what?"

This time, Naruto was confused. He blinked and slowly said, "The tentacles at the bottom of the sea were retrieved?"

"No, not underwater... There were some tentacles that had been blown to pieces floating on the surface of the sea. The masked man collected all the tentacles on the surface."

Upon hearing this, Naruto felt his breath catch in his throat and his heart began to pound.

The question is, did Killer Bee actually fake his death and escape?

If it were just tentacles attached to the sea surface, he'd be dead. But the problem is, it wasn't Sasuke who attacked him, but the masked duo. The plot might deviate from the original story as it unfolds...

At this moment, A interjected, "No matter what, we must first do as Naruto said and find Bee's master."

"Hopefully he's just being mischievous; it's better than him actually being arrested."

The two parties checked the information again, and then the online conversation was interrupted.

Naruto was filled with mixed feelings. He couldn't help but think of Gaara. As a Jinchuriki who had been captured once, would his fate be altered like Killer Bee's?
and many more……

I love Luo...

Naruto's eyes slowly widened. He looked at Sakura, then immediately said to Tsunade, "Excuse me, can I talk to her alone for a few minutes now? I'll come find you later."

Tsunade asked, puzzled, "What are you thinking about?"

"Yes! But I'm not sure right now, I need to sort out my thoughts..."

He winked at Sakura, who nodded and immediately followed him out of the office and into the corridor.

“Sakura, something just occurred to me… In the original story, after Jiraiya died, Pain attacked Konoha very quickly, right?”

Sakura frowned slightly: "Is that so? What are you trying to say... Wait, you mean Gaara!?"

Naruto swallowed hard. "We've always thought Akatsuki captured the Tailed Beasts one by one, because Kishimoto couldn't have them capture them all at once while serializing the manga, and sealing Tailed Beasts can only be done one at a time, right?"

"But that doesn't mean they can't attack two Jinchūriki at the same time!"

Naruto's speech quickened: "I always thought Akatsuki might be lying in ambush on Gaara's way, but I was wrong. We'd definitely know if Gaara was absent, and that would ensure the meeting agenda was approved."

"But what if they're on their way back to the village? The Five Kage won't know, and their strongest fighters are mostly on their way back to the village. Even if they ask for help, they might not be able to get timely support."

Sakura suddenly realized: "You mean they'll try to attack Gaara on the way?"

"Yes! And it was Pain himself who took action! Otherwise, why didn't he capture the Eight-Tails?"

Having said that, the two had realized the seriousness of the problem.

If what Naruto said is true, then they will face two crises at the same time.

One is Killer Bee, whose whereabouts are unknown, and the other is Gaara, who may have already been attacked.

Even if Killer Bee fakes his death and escapes, he is still not safe, since there is Kisame, who can counter Killer Bee.

Naruto and Sakura returned to the Hokage's office and recounted their earlier speculations to Tsunade exactly as they had described.

Upon hearing this, she couldn't help but slam her hand on the table in anger, saying bitterly, "If it weren't for the Raikage, Gaara would never be in such a passive position right now!"

The man in white said from the side, "Lord Hokage, let's think about how to remedy this."

After saying that, he took out a map and spread it out in front of the group.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please look here..."

He pointed to the area from the Land of Iron to the Land of Wind: "If they take the shortest route, they will definitely pass through these locations in the Land of Fire."

"In other words, we have a chance to find Fengying and the others if we search these locations."

Everyone nodded. Tsunade took out a pen, circled several locations along the route, and said to Naruto and Sakura:

"Naruto, Sakura, you two each choose teammates to form two teams and search for traces of Pain within the Land of Fire!"

The two answered in unison: "Yes!"

Immediately afterwards, he left the Hokage's office.

As soon as they stepped outside, Naruto immediately said, "You should have Kakashi and Haku with you on your team, using the Eight Ninja Dogs for tracking. His Kamui combined with Ice Release should be enough to prevent Pain from taking us all out in one go."

Sakura: "And what about you?"

"I'll bring Shino with me; the parasitic insects of the Aburame clan can help me search for Gaara."

"...Besides him, who else?"

"That's enough. Don't forget that Shino has a 100% win rate. And even if I can't hold out, I can take him with me back to Konoha. Having more people would just be a hindrance."

Before Sakura could continue speaking, Naruto vanished from the spot.

Sakura sighed and murmured softly, "I'm afraid Murphy's Law will happen..."

It doesn't take a while.

Naruto arrived at the Aburame clan's territory and knocked on Shino's door.

Most of the people here were wearing sunglasses, making Naruto stand out even more among them.

Every now and then, a child would run over and greet Naruto.

"Crench."

The door opened, and Shino, whose face was completely covered, peeked out.

"Oh, it's Naruto. What do you need me for?"

"Shino, it's like this..."

He gave a brief explanation, and Shino remained silent, only nodding to Naruto to indicate that he needed to go back to his room to organize his equipment.

He didn't even ask why there were only the two of them in the team, and answered very readily.
