Chapter 28 VS Kakashi

The next day, at the third training ground.

Naruto was gloriously late.

He spent the entire night in the [Duel Arena].

From Naruto to Sasuke, from age 12 to age 32.

Although they won, battles of this scale were too mentally taxing, and Naruto is still a little dazed.

What's even more frustrating is that this [Duel Arena] doesn't have a recovery function like the training space.

This game is garbage, is it trying to make him spend money to buy recovery items?
Too bad!

Fortunately, I had plenty of money, so I bought it.

But both Lao Xiong and Lao Tou need to work harder in the future.

He still has many opponents who want to challenge him.

There's more good news: Yesterday in the dueling arena, by defeating two major protagonists in succession, Naruto has confirmed that he is invincible!

But being invincible doesn't mean he's about to become 'emperor'.

Let's not even talk about how tiring it is to be an 'emperor'.

Apart from Konoha Village, he knew absolutely nothing. He only knew the names of some powerful figures from the Five Great Nations, and nothing else.

Social structure, economic structure, population composition, and geographical structure.
Their main characteristic is: they remain silent when questioned.

Now that he has become the 'Emperor', the vast ninja world will probably become even more chaotic than before the 'Ninja Village Era'.

As for the details of management, it will probably focus on one thing: too little control and chaos ensues; too much control and stagnation occurs.

Naruto came to join this world, not to destroy it.

So, take it slow.

At this moment, Naruto suddenly felt that he didn't have enough clones. He really needed more clones to expand his influence and, incidentally, to start learning about the ninja world.

For the first 12 years, his vision was limited to Konoha Village, and he never even left the village.

Since I've decided to start changing the ninja world at 16, I need to start preparing now, actively engaging with the ninja world and gathering information.

Fortunately, he has already become a genin, and he will inevitably leave the village to carry out missions, so there will be many opportunities in the future.

In addition, Lao Gan Die fast food also needs to expand globally.

This also requires a large number of people.

Besides that, Naruto has many other things he wants to do, and he needs help with them.

Fortunately, Naruto recently solved the problem of his clones being discovered, and now he can make each clone a real person, so even if they die, there will still be a corpse.

However, there is another unexpected problem.

Naruto's clone, he's quite extraordinary.

Whether it's the game that's mutated or his clones that's mutated, each of Naruto's clones has its own thoughts.

The old man who founded Lao Gan Die is not an isolated case.

The newly arrived trainee, Xiong Fengshan, also has a unique personality, having been a trainee for two and a half years.

Xiong Fengshan firmly believes that he is a legendary doctor at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, an old doctor who has been immersed in traditional Chinese medicine for 50 years, and that he is also a royal physician, and firmly believes in the Xiong family's old prescriptions, etc.

Fortunately, these clones only had different personalities and no other flaws; they were all diligently completing the tasks he assigned.

However, these clones are all so unique and individualistic. I hope they will cause trouble in the future and not expose their master.

Back to the present.

Naruto looked up and saw that Sasuke and Sakura had already arrived.

Both of them were staring at him; Sasuke seemed quite indifferent, while Sakura appeared somewhat impatient.

"Sorry, I'm late."

He apologized and joined the team.

"Hasn't Kakashi-sensei arrived yet?" Naruto asked, feigning ignorance to divert attention.

"King of Latecomers!"

Naruto could sense anger in Sakura's tone, as if that was what made her angry.

I was late yesterday because he was spying on me.

He was late today because he was at the memorial site, and it's unclear who he was commemorating.

Forget it, why think so much?

Suppressing his thoughts, Naruto scrutinized Sasuke with a critical eye.

He was very curious why this guy would betray Konoha when he was doing so well there.
Was it for revenge?
That's a bit strange. I need to be more careful in the future.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Noticing Naruto's scrutiny, Sasuke asked with some confusion.

"Have you eaten?" Naruto asked casually.

"You ate, you didn't eat, did you?"

He was stumped by the question, as it seemed he really hadn't eaten anything.

"It does not matter."

Naruto gave a random answer, and under Sasuke's suspicious gaze, he lay down on the ground and closed his eyes to rest for a moment.

In the original story, Sasuke would defect, but this Sasuke shouldn't defect in this life. He should just stay in the team and be his assistant. When Naruto "dons the yellow robe" (a symbol of power), Sasuke will be made a general.

At that time, Shikamaru will be the strategist, and Choji will be in charge of logistics.

Wait, we don't want Choji to eat all the supplies.

While Naruto was lost in his rambling thoughts, Kakashi finally arrived, albeit late. Amid Sakura's complaints, Kakashi sincerely apologized.

"Sorry, I encountered a black cat blocking my way on the way here, and I lost my way in life."

Sakura would really thank me for this reason. She heard it twice yesterday. Would she still believe it?

She said weakly, "Teacher, we've already used that excuse. Let's come up with something new!"

Huh? You've already used it?
Kakashi glanced at the culprit and saw Naruto casually picking his nose, acting as if he didn't want to get involved.

He abruptly changed the subject, "Ahem, that's all. Now let's begin the combat drills."

Kakashi pulled two bells from his pocket and said, "Your mission is to steal these two bells. If you fail, you will..."

Without the threat of being sent back to the Ninja Academy, Kakashi was momentarily at a loss as to how to get them to give their all.

"Well, in short, you need to do everything you can to grab it."

Upon hearing this, Naruto stopped picking his nose and narrowed his eyes.

Try your best?

you sure?
He opened his innocent eyes wide and asked, "Teacher, are you really not going to get hurt?"

"No problem, come prepared to kill me."

Naruto nodded, indicating that he understood.

He wasn't going to go all out, otherwise there wouldn't be anything left to do.

Moreover, the ninja world is very closed off, and the cause and effect of any growth in strength will be found, so Naruto plans to gradually reveal his talent and strength.

Today is the first step.

"Sasuke!"

Naruto roared and made the first move.

He threw out six shuriken in the first move, and at the same time charged towards Kakashi with a kunai in his hand.

This is the first time the two have worked together, and it's unclear whether Sasuke will understand what he means.

'This guy!'

Sasuke couldn't understand why Naruto, a genin, dared to charge straight at a jonin.

But thinking about the look in Naruto's eyes yesterday, he decided to take a gamble.

He threw out three shuriken and charged at Kakashi as well.

dong dong dong~
The shuriken was incredibly fast, but Kakashi-sensei, who was hit by it, was turned into a wooden stake – this was the Substitution Jutsu.

it's here!
Naruto turned and thrust straight at his target.

'this!'

Kakashi, who was ambushed from behind, was pierced as soon as he appeared, as if he had run into it himself.

bang~
The clone turned into smoke, its eyes filled with astonishment before disappearing.

not enough!
Naruto began forming hand seals on the spot, controlling his speed to avoid startling others by going too fast.

However, I haven't performed hand seals for several years, and I'm actually finding it a bit strange.

Kakashi, who had been hiding in the tree, watched silently.

The tactile sensation from the clone felt incredibly real. Considering he was discovered yesterday, it seems Naruto must possess some kind of sensory ability.

Looking at this ninjutsu, although he knew a thousand kinds of ninjutsu, he had never seen this hand seal sequence before.

Although he didn't know what kind of ninjutsu it was, his experience told him it was some kind of fire jutsu.

Naruto, who was standing sideways forming hand seals, suddenly turned around and stared at the tree where he was standing.

Fire Release: Firefly Cannon!

A dozen or so fluorescent dots, each the size of a ping-pong ball, shot towards us many times faster than shuriken.

They sensed the terrifying fire-attribute chakra contained within these orbs of light.

Kakashi thought to himself: Oh no!

Boom boom boom~~~
The violent explosion and intense heat made Sakura feel as if she was almost blown away, even though she was more than ten meters away.

Sasuke also crouched down to steady himself, while Naruto stood firmly using his chakra, the violent air currents still making his clothes flutter.

cough~
A cough was heard, and Kakashi emerged from the smoke.

His white hair was burned off and was still smoking. He looked miserable, and his clothes had many holes.

Naruto knew that Kakashi-sensei had used Earth Release to escape.

"Kakashi-sensei, I reminded you yesterday that I am a sensory ninja. Underestimating us will have consequences." Naruto smiled, a smile that was exceptionally humble.

Upon hearing this, Kakashi nodded seriously.

Sensory ninjas are really hard to deal with. Also, is this kid sure he just graduated from the ninja academy?
The third generation lied to him.

However, this is, after all, Minato-sensei's child.

A genius? Of course.

Seeing this blond hair reminded Kakashi of that warm-hearted man.

Although it was terrible, he was surprisingly comforted when he thought of Minato-sensei.

"I'm going to get serious next time!"
