Konoha: Naruto, trained by Aizen

"Gulp." Zuo Zhu's face was knocked to the side, and he fell to the ground at an even faster speed, creating a crater more than ten meters wide.

Naruto shook his fist, which felt slightly numb, and sighed, "Super Lightning Form, how lame."

"Tsk tsk tsk." In the Hokage's office, Jiraiya clicked his tongue and said, "See? Naruto is my disciple. Sasuke is completely powerless against him."

"Naruto is truly outstanding." The Third Hokage smiled and puffed on his pipe, unable to resist praising him.

“This Naruto Uzumaki is quite interesting. If I have the chance, I’d like to have a go at him,” Tsunade said from the side.

The battle was not yet over.

Zuo Zhu immediately jumped out of the pit again.

They attacked Naruto again.

"hateful!

I can't lose like this!

I'm working so hard just to beat you!

"I won't fall until you use your full strength!"

Enraged, Sasuke roared, using every part of his body that could be used.

Head, elbows, legs, even teeth were used.

But what he himself didn't realize was that his speed was not as good as before.

If it were Naruto before he carried out the mission from the Land of Demons, he might have been forced to use his Zanpakuto.

However, after entering the Pure Land, Naruto absorbed a large amount of spiritual particles, and his body underwent an unprecedented transformation.

Facing Zuo Zhu, he felt an unprecedented sense of ease.

He easily dodged the attack, grabbed Zuo Zhu's collar, and punched Zuo Zhu in the stomach.

Zuo Zhu was immediately bent into an arc, his eyes wide open, and he spat out gastric juices.

But at the same time, he revealed a triumphant smile and made a strange gesture with his hands.

The base of the palms meet, and the palms open outwards, like a blooming flower.

"Take this, Naruto!"

! ”

"Uchiha Divine Skill!"

"

With a roar, lightning gathered between his palms and burst forth.

Naruto's mind went blank, and he quickly threw Sasuke aside.

Chapter 167 The Battle Ends, Tsunade's Reaction

But it was too late. A yellow flash, resembling a ki blast, erupted from Zuo Zhu's palm and hurtled toward Naruto at a speed too fast for the naked eye to follow.

Because the distance was too close, Naruto was unable to dodge.

"Boom." Lightning enveloped Naruto, forming a huge sphere of light, with electric sparks swirling inside and explosions occurring continuously, creating a sealed space.

"Boom." A frenzied power surged within, crackling with electricity, illuminating the sky above the area.

"Hmph, Naruto, it's over." Sasuke wiped his nose and snorted, but accidentally touched his wound and winced in pain.

"Whoosh." Suddenly, the sound of footsteps landing echoed amidst the flashes of lightning.

"What an amazing technique! Is this your own ninjutsu? It's truly astonishing." Naruto's magnetic voice rang out.

As the smoke cleared, Naruto's composed figure was revealed, his white robe spotless.

Before them appeared a towering, enormous glass wall.

Spotless and undamaged.

This is Naruto's best defensive Kido technique, the Void Breaker.

"That's enough. I've already seen your progress." Naruto put away his Danku.

I have gained a new understanding of my own abilities.

After entering the Pure Land, his body seemed to find a source of power. After being baptized by the Pure Land, his spiritual pressure increased exponentially. He now possesses the spiritual pressure of a captain and believes that he can reach the strength of a Kage if he goes all out.

Naruto could easily defeat Sasuke, who had barely reached the level of Jonin.

Not to mention a single break, even three consecutive breaks are done with ease.

"This ninjutsu is really powerful. I'm almost exhausted. I can only use it twice more now." Naruto said with admiration, though he was also a little out of breath.

"Humph."

"It seems the exertion was too great." Zuo Zhu stood up, his legs feeling unsteady. "But I haven't lost yet."

"Great Fire Dragon Technique." Sasuke formed hand seals again.

"Hiss." A wisp of smoke drifted out of Zuo Zhu's mouth, and his face immediately turned green.

"Oh, oh, oh, how awful!"

I haven't even used my ultimate move, the Thousand-Year Finger, yet. If I do, you'll be defeated instantly!

"!" Zuo Zhu was so angry that he jumped up and down, shouting loudly.

Sasuke's chakra had been completely depleted during the previous ninjutsu.

This shows that his development of this ninjutsu is not yet complete, and the current consumption is still relatively high.

"Let's leave the battle here for now," Naruto said with a light laugh, shaking his head.

"Sasuke's fighting was a bit reckless. Since Naruto's taijutsu is so strong, he shouldn't have used that ninjutsu to forcibly amplify his body. It consumed too much energy. If he had fought more steadily, he might not have lost so badly," Jiraiya commented in the Hokage's office.

"However, this is the first time Sasuke has overloaded this ninjutsu, so it is only natural that this situation would occur."

"It's a pity that he didn't have the chance to use many of his ninjutsu, not only various secret techniques, but also the Needle Jizo." Jiraiya's tone was quite regretful.

"Needle Jizo? You actually taught him that ninjutsu?" Tsunade was quite surprised.

Jiraiya's Needle Jizo Style is a powerful defensive ninjutsu that can be used for both offense and defense; it's not something that ordinary people would teach.

"I thought Sasuke's hair was quite nice and suited this ninjutsu well, so I taught him."

Upon hearing Jiraiya's reply, Tsunade rolled her eyes.

"You're really bold. Aren't you afraid that Uchiha Sasuke will get out of your control?"

“No, that won’t happen. This kid is different from ordinary Uchiha.” Jiraiya said with certainty, recalling the details of his time with Sasuke.

.....

After the battle, they continued their training.

Sasuke, exhausted from depleting his chakra, leaned against a large tree to rest.

He was very unwilling.

He trained so hard in order to defeat Naruto.

but.

The gap between the two sides seems to be widening.

"Damn it!"

He punched the grass, creating a small crater.

This battle experience is invaluable.

At least prove it.

His ninjutsu is not yet mature enough, and it consumes too much energy.

If used improperly, it can have the opposite effect.

"I still don't have enough real-world experience. If this continues, I'll never be able to defeat Itachi," Sasuke thought with some melancholy.

He never gave up on finding Itachi and asking him the truth.

However, Itachi, who was able to slaughter the Uchiha clan, definitely had Kage-level strength. I myself am already struggling to deal with a Jonin, let alone Itachi.

After watching the battle, the Hokage's office fell silent once again.

Naruto's performance was quite surprising.

Without realizing it, Naruto had already acquired a solid Jonin-level skill level.

can only say.

The brilliance of a genius cannot be concealed.

They only need one opportunity to show their talent.

The inner thoughts of the third generation and others are very complex.

after all.

Naruto is now considered a member of Root.

"It might only take a year or two for Naruto to become a Kage-level shinobi," Tsunade said in a low voice, frowning.

"Are you sure he won't pose a threat to Konoha in the future? Danzo's brainwashing abilities are still quite formidable. If Naruto is brainwashed by Root, then in the future..."

Tsunade didn't finish her sentence, but everyone understood what she meant.

"There won't be any problems, I believe in Naruto." The Third Hokage took a deep drag on his pipe, his mind replaying Naruto's journey to becoming the person he was supposed to be.

Change yourself, gain the village's approval, affirm others, and lead others.

How could Naruto like this possibly pose a threat to Konoha!

Whether he is in Root or Dark Side, the Will of Fire he inherited will burn deeply and tirelessly.

Light up the leaves.

It brings warmth to everyone.
