Naruto: Naruto Hosted by the System

The key question is how long it will take from now until Naruto grows strong enough to defeat the Ten-Tails.

"It won't be too long, half a year should be enough," Naruto reassured him.

Six months is still barely acceptable.

Yugito and Killer Bee were somewhat more accepting of what they heard, but they were still hesitant.

“Lord Uzumaki, I have a suggestion,” Gaara suddenly said.

"You said."

“I think you can kill me and Shukaku. That way, it will take at least a few years for Shukaku to be resurrected, which will also postpone the resurrection of the Ten-Tails by a few years. I believe you will definitely be able to advance successfully within these few years.”

Gaara made the suggestion in a calm tone, as if he wasn't the one who needed to be killed in the proposal.

These words immediately startled everyone else.

Is that a lot of self-sacrifice?

In particular, Shukaku's reaction within Gaara was especially strong: "What nonsense are you spouting, brat? I never agreed to die!"

"I'm sorry, Shukaku." Gaara apologized to Shukaku in his inner world.

"I'm going to make you suffer for the next few years."

Gaara's forlorn voice startled Shukaku.

He can be resurrected, but Gaara cannot.

Naruto shook his head at this, saying, "This level of difficulty is far from enough to warrant sacrificing you all."

“But as you just said, even if we hide, Obito Uchiha will definitely find us. Since we’re going to die anyway, I might as well make my death more meaningful,” Gaara said firmly.

"Are you guys mistaken about something?" Naruto suddenly laughed.

“I never said you would die.”

Upon hearing this, everyone looked somewhat confused.

Especially the Jinchuriki, they knew that they were doomed if the Tailed Beast's chakra was extracted.

"You mean...?" Bai had a slight guess in his mind.

Naruto nodded: "Do you remember when I asked you all to give me a portion of the Tailed Beast chakra?"

Actually, we've given you more than one copy of everything.

The Jinchūriki thought to themselves.

However, after Naruto reminded them, they remembered.

"Even if the Jinchuriki die in the future because their Tailed Beasts have been extracted, the consciousness of the Tailed Beasts will be transferred to their shared consciousness space because of this chakra left in advance, which is equivalent to a rapid resurrection."

"Although the Jinchuriki will die temporarily, thanks to my technique, I can even seal the Tailed Beasts back into the Jinchuriki's body in the future and revive you."

"Of course, if the tailed beasts don't want to be sealed anymore, they only need to contribute some chakra, which can also achieve the effect of reviving the Jinchuriki."

Upon hearing Naruto's words, everyone's eyes lit up.

This is indeed a win-win solution.

Having learned about Obito Uchiha's unpredictable Mangekyou Sharingan, they knew very well that this calamity was unavoidable.

It could even be said that if Naruto hadn't either recruited or killed most of the Akatsuki members, many of the Jinchuriki might already be dead.

"I agree with Lord Uzumaki's proposal." Gaara was the first to vote in favor.

He was already prepared to sacrifice himself, and now he even has a chance to be resurrected, so why not take it?

Haku and Zabuza discussed it for a while and also voted in favor.

Deidara decided to vote in favor without even thinking, but was reprimanded by Onoki.

However, they ultimately voted in favor.

Onoki was actually somewhat interested in the proposal, but he hoped that Deidara wouldn't just agree to it because it was Naruto's suggestion, and would think more about the Land of Earth.

Finally, Yukito and Kirabi, seeing that everyone else had agreed, had no choice but to reluctantly agree as well.

After all, given Naruto's strength, it's already quite good that he's willing to sit down and discuss things with them.

Seeing that things had been settled, Naruto felt much more relaxed.

"I will have someone send over the specific arrangements in a while. I hope everyone can take this time to make arrangements for what needs to be made."

"Then I'll talk about the second thing."

besides?!

The tension that Onoki and the others had just felt eased was raised again.

This subtle change did not escape Naruto's notice.

He then smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, everyone. This is good news."

"I wonder if you all remember that I promised to share the production of ninjutsu with all the countries that have joined the Ninja Alliance."

"And the good news I have to share is that, in addition to the production ninjutsu I had already developed, I have recently developed a brand new and even more effective production ninjutsu, which I will share with everyone free of charge!"

"Now, please follow me, and I will show you this groundbreaking invention."

Chapter 121 The Four Kage: Compared to Konoha's technology, we seem like cavemen.

The four Kage followed behind Naruto, each reacting differently.

I didn't notice it when I first arrived in Konoha yesterday, but after taking a closer look today, I realized that Konoha's streets are indeed quite prosperous.

This did not surprise them, since Konoha was the most fertile land when the country was divided up during the time of Hashirama Senju.

In contrast, the other great powers are like this: the Land of Water is on an isolated island, the Land of Wind is in the desert, the Land of Lightning is built on cliffs, and the Land of Earth is surrounded by rocks and mountains.

This is why, during every Shinobi World War, other countries have coveted Konoha, and there have even been several instances where Konoha was forced to fight four opponents at once.

However, if it were now, Konoha could probably take them all down even if it were just one against four.

Onoki glanced at Naruto ahead, his mind racing.

Onoki didn't care much about the production ninjutsu Naruto mentioned, and even scoffed at it.

I'll say it again: you already have the potential of Hashirama Senju, why aren't you focusing on training and realizing your talent instead of worrying about these useless things?

Onoki had also heard that in Sunagakure, thanks to Naruto's ninjutsu, large oases had appeared, the villagers' living conditions had improved, and they revered Naruto as the "Sun of Sunagakure".

But in his mind, it was simply because Sunagakure was too poor, so they were grateful for even the slightest help.

As they admired the scenery of Konoha, they followed Naruto and soon arrived at a large warehouse.

"Everyone, we've arrived." Naruto stopped in his tracks.

Is he going to show us Konoha's food reserves?

Onoki stroked his beard; in fact, he could already smell the aroma of wheat.

However, what he was really thinking was: knowing the location of Konoha's food supplies would allow him to cut them off during the war...

No, it seems they can't get through the gates of Konoha.

Onoki suppressed his bad thoughts and casually looked them over.

There are quite a few warehouses in this area. If half of the warehouses are actually filled with grain, then it does have more than the warehouses in Iwagakure.

This is already quite exaggerated. Iwagakure needs so much food because they have the most ninjas among the five great nations. There was even a time when they used tens of thousands of ninjas to overwhelm and kill the Third Raikage during a war.

From this perspective, those production ninjutsu might be somewhat useful.

Onoki secretly decided that when he returned, he could consider having some of the Iwagakure genin learn production ninjutsu. After all, he disapproved of Naruto's actions, but there was no such thing as too much food.

In particular, although Iwagakure has many ninjas, most of them are of average strength and lack elites, yet they consume just as much food.

“You might not fully understand the effects of production ninjutsu just by talking about it, so I’ve decided to show you the results of production ninjutsu first.”

As Naruto spoke, he snapped his fingers.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, the warehouse door was lifted by an invisible force, and a vast expanse of golden waves appeared before their eyes.

Grain, all grain! All the warehouses were overflowing with grain, so much so that it spilled out as soon as the doors were opened!

Wheat, corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes...

All kinds of crops are available; the food in front of us is enough to feed the entire Konoha for a year!

At this moment, Onoki was frozen in place.

When he smelled the aroma of wheat, he guessed that Konoha had a lot of food reserves, but he didn't expect it to be so much.

"Are these... produced by your village using production ninjutsu over the past year?" Onoki licked his dry lips and asked subconsciously.

Naruto shook his head.

Ohnoki breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

I knew it! How could so much be produced? It must be because of the grain reserves stored up in previous years.

However, Naruto's next words almost made his eyes pop out, and overturned all his understanding of how to produce ninjutsu.

"How could there be only this much? There are three more identical warehouse areas." Naruto replied casually.

Finally, as if remembering something, he added, "Don't be fooled by the fact that we don't have much grain right now. The main reason is that we've been using old production techniques for the past year, and new production techniques have only been developed and applied for a short time."

At this moment, Onoki could no longer hear Naruto's words.

What is this guy saying?

It took him a long time to accept the fact that Konoha had produced enough food to last for four years in just one year, and that the production capacity would become even more outrageous in the future with the new ninjutsu.

Onoki trembled all over.

Having served as the third Tsuchikage and ruled for so many years, he has a relatively good understanding of people's livelihood issues.

That's why he realized just how outrageous Konoha's productivity was.

Is this really something that can be done by human power?

Soon, Onoki comforted himself: what's the point of wasting all this extra food that we can't finish?

"By the way, I also developed a ninjutsu using Ice Release that can preserve food for several years without any problem. The extra food can be transported to other parts of the Land of Fire, and I believe that hunger will be completely eliminated soon."
