Naruto: I, Naruto, don't want to try anymore.

Chapter 21 Face numbness

"Naruto-kun, let me introduce you. This is our company's boss, the famous director Okamura Tensai!"

(Okamura Tensai, director of the Naruto the Movie: Snow Princess Ninja Scroll and The Lost Tomb: Phantom Land, and the character model for the director of the Naruto the Movie: Princess of the Storm, also wears an orange beret and glasses. I was too lazy to come up with a name, so I just used this name.)

The next morning, Santayu couldn't wait to bring Naruto to the company.

He proudly presented Naruto to the boss, introducing him with great enthusiasm.

"Mr. Okamura, this child's name is Naruto Uzumaki. I met him by chance on the street, and he has an exceptionally outstanding musical talent! Although he's all alone, he can already write very high-quality works at only five years old! He's a true genius singer-songwriter!"

"Oh! That's truly an amazing talent..."

Behind the desk, the middle-aged man wearing an orange beret and black-rimmed glasses, with a serious and upright expression, sat up slightly and looked at Naruto in surprise.

"Hello, Naruto-kun."

"Hello."

Naruto nodded politely; he recognized the director.

In the original series, he was also a bit crazy. In order to film the movie, he first filmed near the main characters' battle, then crossed the war zone to give Naruto a ride to the final battle, and then set up the camera during the final battle.

He seems to be a decent person; after learning the truth, he resolutely decided to continue filming and support Koyuki Kazahana in reclaiming the Snow Country.

Although this decision probably didn't take his subordinates' opinions into account, it doesn't matter, his entire crew is crazy...

Of course, despite their eccentricities, this group was quite law-abiding. They only took charge of filming, and if there was any danger, they would run away as fast as they could, never causing any trouble for the main characters.

For a supporting character, this level of awareness is quite high...

"What a handsome young man."

Okamura Tensai chuckled, "While I trust that Santayu wouldn't lie to me, as the boss of an entertainment company, I still have certain standards. So, Naruto, could you demonstrate your singing voice for me?"

"it is good."

Naruto raised his hand to form a hand seal.

Bang!

Four shadow clones appeared behind him.

"Oh, this..."

Okamura Tensai paused for a moment, then cast a bewildered glance at Santai, only to find that Santai also looked completely confused.

The ability to create clones?

This child knows ninjutsu?

Before the two could ask any questions, Naruto started singing.

"The silent dawn gradually enveloped the earth, and as always, daylight continued towards the distant future, endlessly repeating itself..."

Naruto sang with great enthusiasm, and behind him, four shadow clones harmonized in perfect unison, leaving Okamura Tensai and Santayu completely bewildered.

Can clones really be used like this?

"We live in this moment, unable to see today's wind, standing facing the earth, hoping to forever protect your smile..."

Inside the room, Naruto's melodious and cheerful singing voice filled the room, radiating youthful energy.

Okamura Tensai was initially taken aback, but quickly calmed down. He tapped his fingertips lightly on the armrest of his chair, listening quietly to Naruto's singing.

"Wanna take you, baby, take me higher! Embrace love now~"

"Gonna Kurama! Take me, take me higher! Embrace courage with all your might!"

Yes, the song title is TAKE ME HIGHER, the theme song for the Japanese version of Ultraman Tiga, and also the execution song every time Tiga unleashes his ultimate attack.

However, he changed Gonna TIGA in the original song to Gonna Kurama, meaning: Go! Nine-Lama!

As soon as the lyrics were changed, he heard the Nine-Tailed Fox's disdainful snort.

Naruto turned his head slightly and saw that the fox spirit was lying on the ground pretending to sleep as usual, but her tail was wagging so hard it looked like a propeller.

Naruto was intrigued by that arrogant demeanor and started thinking about whether he should take inspiration from Ultraman Tiga and make something like "Nine-Tailed Beast Kurama"...

There's no need to make special effects costumes or props. Just release Kurama, let him sit on that mountain, and even his farts will be a big production!

Does this count as persuading a fox to go into business?

I don't think so.

After all, it's not an animal documentary...

As soon as the song ended, enthusiastic applause erupted in the room.

Okamura Tensai clapped his hands vigorously, his face beaming with undisguised excitement.

"That's amazing! Using clones for harmonies! I never imagined ninjutsu could be used like that! Although her singing skills still need improvement, it's already outstanding for her age!"

San Taifu's face lit up with joy: "Then, Mr. Okamura, Naruto's contract..."

"Sign it! According to the highest standards!"

Okamura Tensai waved his hand, then looked at Naruto with some hesitation: "But Naruto, you're a ninja, right?"

"I am not a ninja."

Naruto made a sarcastic gesture: "I've only learned a little bit of ninjutsu."

"As long as he's not a ninja..."

Okamura Tensai breathed a sigh of relief. The refugees were manageable, but if Naruto had a legitimate ninja identity, that would be a problem.

"In that case, Santayu, I'll leave Naruto's household registration to you. Also, take care of any other arrangements that need to be made. The company will cover the costs. Once Naruto is settled, let's try recording an album."

After making the arrangements, Okamura Tensai looked at Naruto with some curiosity: "That song was quite good, but Naruto-kun, I have a small question—what is Kurama?"

"It's a huge fox."

Naruto grinned: "I'll introduce you two sometime."

"oh…"

Okamura Tensai felt something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it, dismissing it as just a child's whimsical idea and putting it out of his mind.

San Taifu acted swiftly, resolving Naruto's household registration issue in less than a morning. Naruto then signed the contract without any qualms, as there's no such thing as a guardian in this world.

He didn't need to worry about contract traps at all; at most, he could just throw a Tailed Beast Ball at them.

"The addition of another talented artist is truly cause for celebration!"

Seeing Naruto sign the contract, Okamura Tensai said with a smile.

The poor boss had no idea that his two genius artists, one a princess of a nation and the other a nuclear weapon of the ninja world, would leave the company sooner or later.

"Later, Sandayu, why don't you take Naruto to buy some new clothes? You can also bring Yukie along. She's not much older than Naruto, right? It's good for kids to make friends. Yukie is a bit withdrawn."

"Okay, boss."

San Taifu nodded in agreement and left with Naruto.

Naruto followed behind Santayu, feeling a bit strange.

Before his transmigration, he could be considered a semi-self-media person, often recording his experiences on motorcycle trips and posting them online, which garnered decent traffic, allowing him to make a living from it.

However, becoming a singer was a path he had never considered before; this was the first time in his two lifetimes that he had taken it.

It's worth mentioning that he knows a lot of songs, at least two thousand with lyrics.

He can sing in Chinese, English, and Japanese because he learns the local phrases before he goes to each place, and by the time he leaves after a few months, he has basically mastered the local language.

Japanese is the easiest to learn, which is why Naruto can sing these Japanese songs.

Although he doesn't know many songs, only thirty or fifty, he still has quite a few Chinese songs on his hands. At most, he can just transcribe the music and write the lyrics.

"Speaking of which, Naruto, why don't you get a stage name?"

San Taifu suddenly asked, feeling that the name Naludo sounded a bit silly and not very cool...

"Menma!"

"..."

San Taifu remained silent.

So you're really going after ramen, huh?

First update today! My elbow was sore and numb, so I went to an orthopedic hospital during the day, but all the ones I went to were closed on Sundays. I didn't get back until this afternoon, so the update is a little late. There will be another update later! Please vote and follow my posts! Thank you everyone!
