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

Chapter 29 Surprise Attack

Late at night, in Kusagakure.

Naruto slowly opened his eyes.

He was greeted by a dimly lit room, with four figures wearing strange animal masks sitting around him, watching him intently.

"I'll blanch it..."

Upon seeing this bizarre scene, Naruto's heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly sat up.

"Is this... the animal realm?"

"...What a rude brat."

The figure wearing a bull's head mask spoke slowly, his voice old and heavy with age: "Naruto Uzumaki, this... is Kusagakure, the place where you will live from now on."

"Ah, I remember now..."

Upon hearing what the other person said, Naruto slapped his forehead, only then realizing that he had accidentally fallen asleep on the way.

Yawning, Naruto propped himself up on his knees and looked at the person who had asked the question with interest: "So... are you here for the Uzumaki bloodline, or for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's identity?"

"Nine-Tailed Fox..."

Upon hearing this, the group was taken aback, and then the figure wearing a ram's head mask suddenly stood up.

"Wait! This brat is from Konoha—"

"Rasengan!"

Before she could finish speaking, a chakra dumpling radiating dazzling light instantly appeared in front of them!

However, just as the Rasengan was about to hit the minotaur, a chakra barrier suddenly appeared in front of them.

clang--

The Rasengan collided with the barrier, producing a low, resounding sound.

Then, the Rasengan slowly dissipated, and an invisible binding force enveloped Naruto's entire body, immobilizing him in place.

"hehe…"

"Hahaha!"

"To be able to use ninjutsu at this age, he's truly an extraordinary genius!"

The minotaur who spoke first burst into laughter: "Unfortunately, our Grass Ninja's binding techniques are unmatched!"

"Is that so..."

Naruto raised an eyebrow and a cryptic smile appeared on his face.

The next second, a brownish tinge slowly crept onto his face, and to the astonishment of the others, the blond-haired brat gradually transformed into a lush green sapling!

"Wood Release?!"

Upon seeing this, the group exclaimed in surprise.

sieve--

The moment the clone tree transformed, another blond brat instantly appeared in front of them.

Unlike the blond kid from before, this blond kid has fox ears on his head and nine orange-red fox tails swaying gently behind him.

In front of him, there was a purplish-black sphere several meters in diameter!

"Art is an explosion! Allahu Akbar! Drink!"

Naruto shouted and pushed the Tailed Beast Ball out of his hand. His nine tails quickly gathered into a ball, enveloping his entire body.

"A Tailed Beast Ball?!"

"No! This is impossible!!"

boom------

The terrified screams stopped abruptly, and in the darkness, a dazzling light shone in the Grass Ninja Village!

At that very moment, all the Grass Ninja within a hundred-meter radius saw their grandmother!

This scene of family reunion lasted for a full half minute before Naruto slowly spread his tail and walked out from the messy ruins.

The Tailed Beast Ball's burst of power failed to inflict any damage on him, which was to be expected, given that it was a chakra tail identical to the Nine-Tails', and even the Ten-Tails' Hollow Dog Cannon could withstand one of its attacks.

Those masked old perverts had vanished without a trace, and the corpses of the grass ninja lay scattered haphazardly in the ruins.

"Enemy attack!!!"

In the ruins, a severely wounded ninja knelt on the ground, clutching his arm and screaming in agony.

Naruto, who was passing by, kicked out, and with a crack, the ninja's neck bent ninety degrees, the white bone piercing through the skin, his death appearance gruesome and terrifying.

"Alas--"

Upon seeing this bloody scene, Naruto shuddered and rubbed his arms with a look of disgust.

It's not that he's cruel, it's just that the Nine-Tails Mode is too powerful, and it turned out like this with just a little effort.

Ignoring the bloody scene, Naruto looked away, and Kagura's Mind Eye quickly covered the entire village, eventually locking onto a secluded corner of the village.

There were two chakra auras there that were different from the others. One was active and vigorous, while the other was languid and gloomy, but without exception, they both carried a feeling that Naruto found inexplicably familiar.

So, the chakra connection is indeed more pronounced between people of the same bloodline...

Naruto glanced at the approaching Grass Ninja, then vanished in a flash.

"Damn it! Who is that person?!"

"Where are the elders? How are they?"

"Quickly treat the wounded!"

With the elder gone, the village's ninjas were thrown into complete chaos.

Naruto glanced at it from afar, smiled contemptuously, and in a few breaths appeared in a corner of the village, arriving in front of a dilapidated hut.

The dim oil lamp inside flickered, casting two shadows, one large and one small, onto the tattered curtains.

"Mom, why are you up?"

"Hmm, it seems there's been a fight in the village. We might need to go to the hospital later..."

The woman finished dressing, gently stroked the girl's head, and said in a gentle voice, "Karin, go to sleep quietly, okay? Mommy will be back first thing tomorrow morning."

"But…"

The girl seemed to want to say something more, but was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

"Hi, is anyone home?"

Naruto gently knocked on the door, his voice languid.

"They're here..."

Footsteps sounded from inside the house, the door opened, and a gentle and graceful woman appeared before Naruto.

The woman looked somewhat haggard; her once vibrant red short hair had a dry, white tinge that made it appear slightly pinkish.

For the Uzumaki clan, this is clearly a sign of excessive depletion of life force.

"Hello, little friend, are you here to tell me I need to go to the hospital?"

Seeing Naruto's clean and handsome face, the woman gently leaned down.

"Naruto Uzumaki has come to take you away."

Naruto didn't waste any words, pointing at the uneasy red-haired girl in the room: "You don't want your daughter to suffer the same thing as you in the future, do you?"

"swirl…"

The woman was slightly taken aback, then, as if grasping at a lifeline, she quickly ran to the girl's side and picked her up in her arms.

The moment she looked at Naruto again, he could clearly see the determination in the woman's eyes.

"Sir, what can I do for you?"

Naruto stepped forward and grabbed the woman's wrist.

The woman only felt a blur before her eyes, and the scene in front of her suddenly changed. In an instant, the three of them traversed hundreds of miles and appeared at the home of Kazeka Koyuki in the Fire City.

The dilapidated little wooden house was transformed into a clean and tidy big house in the blink of an eye, a magical phenomenon that surprised both the mother and daughter.

"Space-Time Ninjutsu".

Naruto said succinctly, "This is the Land of Fire. You can stay here for now. I'll be right back."

As he spoke, he flashed again and reappeared in the small, dilapidated house where the mother and daughter had previously lived.

Naruto glanced around the room, his brow furrowing at the shabby surroundings. This place was far worse than even his own run-down apartment…

Just as he was thinking of summoning the Nine-Tails to smash this eyesore of a house to pieces, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

"Hey, Kanako! What are you doing?" (Karin's voice actress, Kanako Tojo.)

A burly, strangely-looking grass ninja burst through the door: "Have some self-awareness! That explosion was so loud—"

Upon noticing the blond boy inside the room, swaying his fox tail and coldly watching him, the grass ninja's voice abruptly stopped!
