Coupled with her previous embarrassing moments, she subconsciously regarded Naruto as a rival.

For her, researching this field was her forte, which she was proud of and which allowed her to easily defeat Naruto.

Unexpectedly, Naruto proposed to exchange ideas and conduct research.

This aroused a competitive desire in the heart of the oil woman, Nere.

I may not be good at fighting, but I'll never lose when it comes to research!

Chapter 139 Returning to the Village and Sasuke

"I'm very interested in human research!" Naruto said gently, the sunlight shining down on his warm face, making him look like a super warm and caring man.

"Are you kidding me?! Naruto is actually interested in human research?!" Rock Lee was shocked and almost speechless.

How could the gentle Naruto I remember be interested in human anatomy research?!

Oh, right!

He must care about the people and hope to strengthen Konoha through human research so that everyone will no longer suffer!

As expected of Naruto!

That's amazing!

Lee Rock's vision blurred instantly.

"There's no need for further communication. Let's return to Konoha first." Aburame Nerei raised her noble head, like a proud peacock.

You wouldn't guess that this oil-loving woman, Neri, is quite arrogant.

Naruto smiled slightly, unconcerned by the other party's arrogance.

He walked forward, muttering to himself:

"Trying to create insects with special powers through experiments seems like a good research topic, but my research is still more focused on the bloodline limit field."

"If every insect could possess a bloodline limit, would that mean it would be possible to possess all bloodline limits in the future?"

"This topic is very interesting."

As Naruto walked, he muttered to himself, occasionally bringing up a few guesses about bloodline limits that he had discussed with Orochimaru.

Those academic remarks piqued the interest of the oil woman, Nellie.

Unlike Orochimaru, she couldn't learn from and improve herself through some of the Second Hokage's experimental projects.

They also did not receive any systematic training.

Her research only began because of her interest in the body.

From initially being clueless and simply observing by cutting open body tissues, to later conducting detailed research and testing through various experiments.

It can be said that her research journey was full of hardships.

Danzo assumed that Aburame Nero was only interested in the human body and did not spend much time learning about her research.

So until now, Aburame Nerei has been doing her research all by herself.

I have never had any communication with my peers.

Naruto's words made Aburame Nene look at him with newfound respect.

It's important to understand that human energy is limited.

According to intelligence, Naruto spends a lot of time training in bloodline limits and taijutsu, and has almost never been involved in scientific research projects.

Even if he is interested in scientific research, he only knows the basics at most.

But unexpectedly, many of the points Naruto made could even inspire Aburame Nene.

"Are you very knowledgeable about human anatomy?" Aburame Nere couldn't hold back any longer and couldn't help but ask.

"I know a little, we can exchange ideas." Naruto immediately revealed a sly smile.

along the way.

Naruto and Aburame Nene communicated a lot.

They were originally nearly a meter apart.

Later, the distance between them got closer and closer.

They were almost side by side.

During the conversation, Aburame Nerei's opinion of Naruto underwent a complete 360-degree change.

Naruto is not the kind of person she originally thought who only knows how to fight and has a little bit of cleverness. On the contrary, he has great wisdom and is willing to start thinking about the essence of a problem.

Although he had never conducted actual human experiments, he was not opposed to them.

My attitude towards it is this: every ninjutsu, every step of human evolution, is inseparable from humanity's exploration of its own body. The thirst for knowledge determines human evolution; without the thirst for knowledge about the body, there would be no evolution, no matter how many times we evolve. And I, I am simply following my instincts.

This sentence enlightened Nereid, the oil woman.

She finally realized why she felt a strong urge to dismantle and explore those corpses whenever she saw them.

The two chatted happily along the way, leaving Rock Lee neglected.

In this cheerful atmosphere, they quickly returned to Konoha.

.....

"A Konoha rogue ninja who surpasses even an ordinary Jonin?" Root leader Danzo quickly received the details of the mission.

Both Jonin who accompanied them this time died.

One died at the hands of Kitetsu, while the other was quietly killed by Naruto.

However, the blame should definitely be placed on Onikiri.

"It's a Konoha rogue ninja we didn't announce." Danzo's expression was grim. He immediately ordered his subordinates to search for someone similar to Konoha's past ninja charts based on the appearance described by Aburame Nerei.

The result was found very quickly.

Murakami Oni, codenamed Kitetsu, was an Anbu ninja, a Jonin, skilled in swordsmanship, and had no bloodline limit. He died during the Konoha Crush plan.

According to the information obtained from Aburame Nerei and Naruto.

Kitetsu's taijutsu and slashing techniques far surpass those of ordinary Konoha Jonin, and he never used ninjutsu during the battle.

The last person he fought was Naruto.

“When I arrived, Kitetsu’s stamina was already mostly depleted, and I used Kyoka Suigetsu to kill him at the last second.” Naruto’s explanation was flawless, and Danzo did not suspect anything.

But Kitetsu's motives left everyone baffled.

“Kitetsu has always been loyal to Konoha’s Anbu. During the previous count, they even found Kitetsu’s body. How could someone who was confirmed dead appear on the border of the Land of Fire? And even have more power than before?” Danzo was completely puzzled.

Suddenly, the image of that black monster appeared in my mind.

"Could it be related to that monster?" he muttered to himself.

.......

Inside the Konoha training ground.

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle." A strange phenomenon of thunder appeared in the sky.

Uchiha Sasuke was bathed in lightning, his expression ferocious, and the ground beneath his feet cracked layer by layer.

"Drink." He kicked off with both legs, and a sizable pit appeared beneath his feet, with cracks spreading outwards.

The next moment, the money-counting machine appeared twenty meters away, its two fingers piercing straight through the tree. The extreme heat charred the tree, emitting a foul odor.

"Hoo." After doing all this, he exhaled a long breath, and the lightning on his body subsided.

"Wow, Sasuke is amazing!! Sasuke is invincible, unparalleled in the world!" The Konohamaru trio clapped their hands with eyes shining with admiration.

"Big brother, what's this move called?" Konohamaru jogged up and asked admiringly.

Sasuke, hands on his hips, smugly put on a cool expression and said:

"This is Lightning Release: Thousand-Year Finger!!!"

"By attaching lightning to the fingers, making them the hardest part of the human body, and using the acceleration of Lightning Release to instantly insert the fingers into the opponent's vulnerable parts, this is a finishing move with minimal energy consumption and extremely high destructive power!"

"Wow!! Brother Sasuke, what are your vulnerable areas?"

"Of course, it's the eyes and throat. Do you want to learn?"

Sasuke nodded in satisfaction as he watched the Konohamaru trio nod vigorously.

"As long as you master the transformation of your own chakra nature, you will be able to channel different elemental energies into your fingers. This will be your most powerful ninjutsu."

During this time, Sasuke had come to accept these underlings in his heart and often trained with them.

Everything is fine.

The only thing that bothered him was...

The person who replaced Naruto in the team was an emotionless and extremely cold-hearted guy.

The thought of having to carry out a mission with that guy in a few days gave Sasuke a headache.

"Hey, Sasuke, long time no see." Just then, Naruto's gentle voice suddenly rang out from above the tree where Sasuke was.

Chapter 140 Damn it, I want to join Root too!!

Sasuke stiffened and quickly looked up to see Naruto sitting on a tree branch.

The slender branches seemed completely unaffected by Naruto's weight, remaining sturdy and trembling slightly in the breeze.

Naruto has become stronger again.

Sasuke's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Damn it!!" he exclaimed, filled with resentment.

No matter how fast he improves, Naruto always manages to outpace him.

This feeling is just too awful.

Moreover, during the month or so that Naruto joined Root, he stayed in the village almost the entire time and did not go out to carry out any high-difficulty missions.
