Chapter 96 The Golden Flash Reappears
Seeing Kakashi caught in a flood of memories triggered by the kunai, Naruto's gaze subtly shifted upwards.

Locked onto the rooftop of the VVVIP VIP seating area!
That place was also isolated by the massive Four Purple Flame Array.

Inside the barrier, only Orochimaru and the Third Hokage remained.

Naruto stared intently at the scene:

Good heavens, Orochimaru is actually holding a kunai and leisurely reminiscing with his teacher, the Third Hokage? What a deep bond between master and disciple!

This thoughtful little gift is so easy to keep from slipping!
However, Orochimaru vs. the Third Hokage, and Obito Uchiha vs. the Fourth Hokage.

Tsk, it's all just a trick of master and disciple turning against each other?
Killing one's master to prove one's path?
Is this some kind of ancestral skill of the ninja world?

Following this logic, wouldn't Sasuke, one of the potential future big bosses, also have to stage a master-disciple drama of 'a treacherous disciple betraying his master and destroying his ancestors' with Kakashi-sensei?

He couldn't help but shake his head and marvel.

In truth, it's all the world's fault!

Anyway,

Before the "main course" was even served, Naruto closed his eyes and sensed 333 enemies, which served as a perfect appetizer.

Before this,

Whoosh!
Naruto flashed and used the "Flying Thunder God Technique" to parachute into the rest room.

Looking around: apart from Tosukinari, who was still lying dead after being beaten, and Gaara's group from Sunagakure who had already slipped away, the room was only occupied by the Konoha members.

The moment he landed, he instantly became a magnet for the entire audience.

All eyes were fixed on him!
That look wasn't like looking at a classmate, but more like watching a prehistoric Tyrannosaurus Rex that had just beaten up a Tailed Beast like a punching bag stroll into the backyard!
They were both 12 years old, but while they were still playing with Gundams, Naruto was already piloting one.

The gap was so huge that it made them question the meaning of life.

Shikamaru glanced at the ceiling and continued to lie there like a lazy bum.

Sasuke clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white: What had he been doing all these years? Had he even made an effort?

Naruto raised his hand, revealing his signature sunny smile: "What? Have you all lost your memories after just a short time apart?"

The sun in Konoha today is also very kind.

"Hmph!" Sasuke turned his face away, his cold snort filled with deep resentment.

He's angry at himself!

If three years isn't enough, what if we cultivate diligently for six years?

Sakura's bright green eyes were fixed on Naruto: "Naruto-kun! You're amazing!"

Naruto smiled knowingly and gave a thumbs-up: "Sakura-chan, did you see that? The way you beat up the One-Tail just now was a preview of the ultimate power of your monstrous strength taijutsu! Keep practicing! You can be just as cool!"

"really?"

Sakura's eyes lit up instantly, and she clenched her little fist excitedly!
She can beat up tailed beasts like balls? That's so satisfying!
"Of course!" Naruto grinned and gave a thumbs-up. "Trust me! He has potential!"

Suddenly remembering his important matter, he started rummaging in his pocket.
"Here!"

Three Flying Thunder God kunai, gleaming with a cold, eerie blue light, landed steadily in the palms of the three people.

"Here, take one of each of you. This is my Flying Thunder God Kunai. As long as you have it, I can find you anytime."

"see you later!"

Whoosh!
Naruto vanished in a flash!

Only one syllable lingered in the lounge.
The three looked down for a closer look: on the kunai handle, a chibi-style, bristly-haired nine-tailed fox was baring its teeth, looking both cute and fierce!
Shino silently pushed up her sunglasses: Hmm? Where's my gift? Differential treatment? Whoosh!
Another person appeared in the lounge; it was Kakashi.

He glanced at the kunai in the hands of the three men and knew that Naruto had been there.

but
"Sasuke, Sakura, I'm issuing you an A-rank mission!"

The camera turned.

The outer walls of Konoha have been breached!

The Sand Village ninjas swarmed in like locusts, forcing the hastily prepared Konoha ninjas into a series of defeats!

A dozen or so elite Sand Village soldiers grinned maliciously, unleashing a barrage of sword strikes and ninjutsu, seemingly about to completely engulf a small squad of Konoha ninja who were struggling to hold on!
Whoosh!
A golden bolt of lightning, tearing through the air, pierced the battlefield without warning!

fast!
So fast that it only left a golden shadow on the retina.

That golden glint flashed like a ghost more than a dozen times among the Sand Village crowd!
Each flash was accompanied by a short, cold tearing sound!
Thump! Thump thump—

The Sand Village elites, who were full of murderous intent just a second ago, fell straight down from mid-air like wheat stalks harvested by an invisible scythe, without even having time to scream.

Instant death!

"Uh?"

The Konoha ninja, gritting his teeth to block a fatal blow, almost dropped his sword!
He turned his head blankly: all he saw were corpses of Sunagakure ninja scattered on the ground, and a golden streak of light dissipating in the wind.
"hiss"

A young ninja gasped, his jaw nearly dropping to the floor: "Who...who is that?"

The enemy they fought so hard to hold off was just wiped out by that person with a single stroke?

A middle-aged ninja standing nearby had his pupils widen in shock, as long-buried memories burst forth like a tsunami.

His voice trembled with disbelief: "Golden Yellow Flash? It's the Fourth Hokage!?"

On the other side of the battlefield.

Naruto instantly reappeared, a golden light flashing like the breath of death!
this time,

No mercy shown! No room for compromise!

Bloodshed is the best deterrent!
Have a kind heart?

Ah, let's talk about it again when his light, the "sun of the ninja world," truly shines into every corner of the world!

With tens of thousands of Flying Thunder God kunai scattered throughout the village beforehand, he can freely go to any building and any corner.

The village! It became his domain!
With the help of this "spatial coordinate network", combined with his nerve reflexes that are as high as 212 points, dozens of times greater than the limits of the human body.

On the battlefield, he is a god who controls life and death!
Kill the enemy?
Like chopping melons and cutting vegetables!
With overwhelming power, every time he flashed, he reaped a life.

Just for a moment,

The title "Golden Flash" once again spread among the Konoha ninjas, and it instilled fear in enemy ninjas.

Most of them had never heard of the Golden Flash, but the sight of it in person, with each flash claiming a life, terrified them!

When 188 lives were taken in succession...

Naruto's figure suddenly stopped!

His gaze suddenly locked onto the direction of the Chunin Exams, and he sensed two terrifying, boundless chakra erupting like volcanoes!

The feast is about to begin!
