Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Chapter 853 Simp Number 2

"Naruto, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Ino walked over, grabbed Ryogo's arm, and tried to ease the tension between Ryogo and Sakura.

Never say anything that could undermine unity.

Liao Wu also gave Ino face, knowing that she didn't want to make things awkward for everyone.

Let go of Sakura's hand.

"Naruto..."

Sakura was momentarily shocked; she had been wielding incredible strength when she went berserk just now.

Even though Sakura's superhuman strength is an explosive burst of power, in that instant, Sakura's strength could smash a huge rock and shatter the ground with a single punch.

Its physical destructive power is comparable to that of a tailed beast attack.

But Naruto suddenly neutralized this superhuman strength.

How could Naruto have strength beyond that of a monster?

The expressions on everyone's faces were quite varied in the private barbecue room.

Everyone thinks it's normal for Naruto to change his gender! After all, there was a three-year gap in their lives, and even if Naruto changed his gender to become a woman during those three years, it was just his choice.

But Naruto, Sakura's number one sycophant, has suddenly turned against his master, which has caught everyone's attention.

Naruto is no longer a simp.

Xiao Li, the number two sycophant, felt his opportunity had arrived.

He stepped forward, first doing a dozen or so push-ups in an abstract manner, then pointed at Liao Wu and said, "Naruto, you disrespect Sakura, I challenge you to a duel!"

Liao Wu sneered at Xiao Li, "Xiao Li, are you out of your mind to challenge me to a duel?"

Lee kept issuing duel invitations: "Naruto, are you scared?"

Liao Wu pointed at Sakura: "Little Lee, did you do this for Sakura? You win, from now on my lapdog role is yours!"

"What 'simp'?"

These innocent kids haven't been poisoned by the "simp" culture yet. In order to compete for girls, a group of boys gather together to show off their muscles—a biological behavior.

The goal is simply to connect!

The girl was merely a burden to the repressed boy.

Liao Wu didn't want to explain what a "simp" was.

Sakura gave Lee a real lesson: "Lee, I don't like you. Don't fight Naruto anymore!"

Sakura isn't exactly a "green tea" type anymore; she's already clearly rejected Naruto or Rock Lee.

Sasuke was the only one in her heart.

Naruto always wanted to win Sakura's heart with his sincerity.

But Sakura has already made her own choice.

Lee was devastated; his youth seemed tinged with gray: "Why...Sakura?"

Liao Wu explained, "Girls like the cool type the most, like—"

Liao Wu circled around, then pointed at Neji and said, "Neji's type—just stay quiet and be a quiet, handsome man!"

Neji snorted.

Choji, while eating his grilled meat, interjected, "I'm a quiet person too!"

Ino scoffed, "Choji, you're not exactly handsome!"

Lee, though initially discouraged by Sakura, regained his youthful energy and persisted relentlessly: "Naruto, even if Sakura doesn't like me, I'm still going to challenge you."

Lee used the word "challenge" to prove that he also felt he was inferior to Naruto.

Even though Naruto is only a genin right now.

Among those of the same period, only Naruto's record was the most outstanding, having developed an S-rank forbidden technique and killed the immortal duo, Kakuzu.

Of course, Shikamaru also has a record of burying Hidan alive.

However, everyone knows Shikamaru. Shikamaru's fight against Hidan was a high-IQ battle, which they couldn't understand.

I don't think Shikamaru is particularly strong.

Lee made a deep bowing gesture: "Please, Naruto, let's have a real, satisfying duel!"

"Teacher Kai said I've been slacking off lately, and I need the spur-on of geniuses my age!"

Since Lee's stunning performance in the Chunin Exams three years ago, he has shattered everyone's prejudice against taijutsu.

I never knew that someone who only knew physical skills could be this powerful.

However, Rock Lee's cheat codes were blocked in Shippuden; he was able to open five gates of the Eight Gates during the Chunin Exams.

However, in Shippuden, you can only open up to the sixth gate.

Three years and you only improved by one subject?

Xiao Li is not a lazy person; the only possibility is that Xiao Li's talent has reached its limit.

His physical skills are nowhere near Kai's.

Or perhaps, by following Kai to practice the Eight Gates Formation, he had already exhausted his physical talent by opening five gates in two years.

Then there's the Eight Gates Formation after the Five Gates, each gate more difficult than the last.

With five gates, one can fight a Jonin; with six gates, one can go toe-to-toe with a Kage.

Actually, Xiao Li's improvement is already quite good.

But Xiao Li is strict with himself.

Xiao Li is currently unable to open the seventh gate, and he hopes to be criticized by his peers in order to break through the seventh gate.

Tenten said, "Naruto, just say yes to Lee, or he'll definitely keep bothering you."

Liao Wu thought of Kai's death entanglement with Kakashi.

Even when Kakashi is in the bathroom, Guy will still issue a duel challenge.

Little Li might become like Kai, relentlessly entangled with anyone who wants to challenge him.

"Alright, Xiao Li, I accept your challenge, but let's fill our stomachs first!"

Xiao Li jumped up, fully revived, and brimming with youthful energy.

Even now, he maintains a strong competitive spirit.

"Naruto, let's have a contest to see who can eat more!"

Xiao Li's chopsticks flew, whirling through the air, and several pieces of roasted meat were frantically stuffed into his stomach.

Liao Wu has not yet responded to the challenge.

Choji immediately got angry: "Lee, don't treat eating alone as a challenge!"

Choji unleashed his gluttonous ability, a trait unique to the Akimichi clan, and picked up his chopsticks to compete with Lee to see who could eat more.

Everyone felt somewhat helpless.

If two foodies eat like this, how are others supposed to eat?

Liao Wu was almost full. Once he was full, his urges kicked in, and he glanced at Ino beside him.

Ino is wearing her traditional gold-plated suit today.

She wore a purple sleeveless high-necked crop top and a matching purple slit skirt.

His arms and thighs were covered with ninja mesh protective gear, a ninja tool bag hung on the side of his legs, and he wore dark green open-toed ninja boots.

There were no missions today; it seems they're doing ninja training.

Although the Ino-Shika-Cho trio are not extremely wealthy, Ino and her two companions are well-off and have no need to go on missions so frequently.

Liao Wu reached out and touched Jingye's buttocks.

That's how straightforward he is when he's pursuing girls!

If you like it, go touch it.

Ino was attacked. Looking around, she saw Liao Wu.

Liao Wu gave Jingye a handsome smile reminiscent of a water gate.

Ino probably won't refuse!

"Naruto—"

Ino slapped Liao Wu across the face, sending him flying.

Shikamaru glanced around at his companions.

Lee is a simpleton, Choji is a glutton, Naruto is a pervert, and Ino has the potential to be a Tyrannosaurus Rex...
