Naruto: Naruto Hosted by the System

"Naruto-kun is really funny. Aren't shadow clones just yourself?"

But Orochimaru soon realized something was wrong, because the three people in front of him gave off completely different vibes.

Naruto's original form in the middle, which originally gave the impression of being an emotionless machine, now resembles a passionate young man.

The shadow clone to Naruto's left was also strange. The entire shadow clone seemed to be made of the Nine-Tails' chakra, as if it were not a shadow clone but the Nine-Tails itself.

The shadow clone to Naruto's right was even stranger, because it had that machine-like feel about it.

All that could be heard was Naruto's true form in the middle saying:

"Orochimaru, it's not me who will defeat you..."

"It's us!"

Chapter 42 Kurama: I'm going to beat up the Hokage!

"Your name... is it Nine-Ratna?"

Naruto said this to Kurama, reflecting on his inner thoughts.

Nine-Tailed Buddha snorted coldly: "Was it that fat raccoon who told you my real name? How nosy you are."

"What's wrong with that? I've always called you Nine-Tailed Fox, which seems a bit impolite."

"Humph."

This time, Naruto didn't try to persuade Kurama to reconcile with humans. He simply asked, "Kurama, do you want to come out for some fresh air?"

"Didn't I tell you not to talk to me about reconciliation with humans? You should be able to see what kind of relationship exists between humans and tailed beasts just by looking at that fat tanuki." Kurama scoffed at this.

But Naruto laughed: "Kurama, you really should study the courses at the Ninja Academy properly in the future, especially your understanding of language."

"What does this have to do with anything? You little brat, you're jumping the subject way too fast."

"Because I was clearly asking you if you wanted to come out for some fresh air, but you answered me with whether you were willing to reconcile with humanity."

Nine Lamas was taken aback upon hearing this.

"The First Hokage and his brother, the Second Hokage, who captured you and brought you to Konoha are right outside. Do you want to give them a good beating?"

Kurama chuckled upon hearing this: "You say you want to be the Fifth Hokage, but now you're asking outsiders to help you beat up the previous Hokage. You humans are really something else."

Naruto grinned, showing no sign of embarrassment whatsoever.

"Besides, you know it was the First Hokage who captured me. His Wood Release is effective against me. What are you planning to do, sending me to deal with him?" Kurama grumbled, unaware that his words already implied an agreement to help.

"Kurama, you just need to deal with the Second Hokage. You don't need to do anything else. Just keep bombarding him with Tailed Beast Balls and don't let him interfere with me."

"Once the system finishes processing the First Hokage, he will come to help you."

Naruto spoke casually, as if he were just going to the market to buy groceries.

"Hahaha." Even Nine-Lama couldn't help but laugh.

"I have no interest in reconciling with humanity, but I would be more than happy to beat up those guys like Hashirama Senju."

"So what? What do you want me to do? Let this old man take over your body?"

"No need. The system has invented a new ninjutsu that allows your consciousness to temporarily reside in a shadow clone."

Upon hearing Kurama's agreement, Naruto extended his fist, gesturing for Kurama to bump fists with him.

"These are the hand seals to be formed."

Kurama didn't think much of it and bumped fists with Naruto.

"I was just kidding. There's no need for hand seals, and there's no such hand seal at all. I just wanted to bump fists with you."

Nine-Lama was taken aback, then snorted coldly: "You think you can bully me because I'm an honest fox and I haven't learned these things?"

"I can teach you if you have time."

"Who cares?"

Kurama, who was unconsciously wagging his tail at that moment, did not notice that although Naruto had not mentioned anything about him reconciling with humans, he was genuinely less averse to anything related to humans.

This is Naruto's approach. He will never nag Kurama repeatedly to make him reconcile with humanity. Instead, he will gradually shape the world into a form that makes him willingly understand, reconcile with, and love humanity.

……

Orochimaru stared intently at Naruto and his shadow clone, and said coldly, "Playing tricks."

Having said that, he sent the First Hokage to test the waters.

However, at that moment, Kurama's shadow clone suddenly unleashed an incredibly powerful burst of tailed beast chakra.

"Roar! I'm finally out! Hashirama, I've come for revenge!"

"Nine-Tails?" Hashirama Senju was taken aback, thinking that the Nine-Tails had broken its seal while Naruto and Orochimaru were fighting, and he became a little anxious.

Under Orochimaru's control, he clapped his hands together and used Wood Release ninjutsu to prepare to fight.

Then... Kurama rushed towards Tobirama Senju.

"Konoha swear words!" Caught off guard by the attack, Tobirama Senju was stunned for a moment and blurted out a curse.

"Nine-Tails, are you blind? How could you mistake me for your elder brother?!"

Kurama remained silent, only relentlessly beating Tobirama Senju.

Now that things have come to this, it's too embarrassing to admit that we can't beat Hashirama Senju.

Meanwhile, having lost its target, the Wood Release ninjutsu attacked Naruto's main body.

Naruto ignored this.

At the critical moment, the system's shadow clone instantly activated Sage Mode and unleashed a Sage Art: Giant Rasengan to negate the Wood Release.

He then immediately used the Adamantine Sealing Barrier to bring Hashirama Senju aside.

"First Generation, would you mind telling me your weakness?"

The system's emotionless words reached Hashirama Senju's ears.

Although he didn't understand what was going on, Hashirama Senju wanted to help Naruto defeat the enemy. Just as he was about to speak, his expression became wooden, and he attacked without any strategy. It was clear that Orochimaru had taken further control of him.

"Can't you say it? No problem, I can do it myself."

As for Naruto, although he couldn't instantly activate Sage Mode like the system, he could share the system's database, so his mastery of Sage Mode was extremely profound.

The system's delay was enough time for him to absorb sufficient natural energy.

Just as he was about to activate Sage Mode, he discovered a different kind of Nine-Tails chakra within his body.

"That Nine-Lama is really not frank."

Naruto smiled slightly and mobilized the special Nine-Tails chakra within his body, but this time, it was completely different from before.

Instead of the crimson tailed beast chakra cloak appearing on his body, it turned golden, and the Nine-Tails chakra on his body no longer gave off a negative feeling, but was extremely pure.

At the same time, it doesn't seem to be just the Nine-Tails' chakra, because it also contains natural energy.

"Let's call this mode 'Fairy Fox Mode'."

On the other side, Kurama donned the cloak of tailed beast chakra and personally took to the field, tossing Tobirama Senju high into the air, slamming him with boulders, or simply summoning a dozen crimson hands to take turns beating Tobirama Senju.

Every time Tobirama Senju's reanimated body was about to be restored, Kurama would unleash a Tailed Beast Ball on him.

"Hahaha, that's great, that's great!"

Kurama spat out another Tailed Beast Ball.

All the grievances that had been sealed away over the years were finally released.

"Hey Kurama! Stop wasting your chakra. No matter how many times the Edo Tensei body is destroyed, it will regenerate. If you keep going like this, once your chakra is exhausted, I will definitely be controlled and kill you." Seeing Kurama getting carried away with his fun, Tobirama Senju hurriedly reminded him.

"Insufficient chakra is something only useless humans like you need to worry about. I never worry about such things." Kurama said smugly, and was about to spit out another Tailed Beast Ball.

However, he was immediately proven wrong: the remaining chakra was insufficient to condense a Tailed Beast Ball.

"Damn it! I forgot that Naruto's shadow clone can't hold too much chakra."

Seeing Tobirama Senju being controlled and attacking him, Kurama panicked for a moment.

"Oh no, I don't know any sealing techniques to trap him..."

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!"

Just as the water dragon bullet was about to hit Nine-Lama's face, an earth dragon appeared in front of him and blocked the attack.

"Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet!"

Nine-Lama looked closely and realized it was another shadow clone, which was the system.

"System! You've taken care of Hashirama Senju?" Kurama, having escaped death, was overjoyed.

"We're temporarily trapped."

"Sorry, it took me a while because I'm not familiar with Wood Release."

"But now, it's about time to end this."

Chapter 43 Hiruzen Sarutobi, who wasn't late

As soon as the system joined the battle, Kurama immediately felt a significant reduction in pressure.

Tobirama Senju is not only skilled in powerful water-style techniques, but also knows many strange forbidden techniques, making him quite difficult to deal with.

"He actually defeated my elder brother? And so quickly? You're a force to be reckoned with." Tobirama Senju looked surprised.

As a master of ninjutsu, he developed so many different ninjutsu techniques, and he actually saw some clues about the existence of Kurama and the system.

Moreover, he was very curious about the system because its every move was unlike that of a human; perhaps it was an existence similar to the Nine-Tails?

"If I weren't already a dead man, I'd really like to study you."

“Okay, we can study each other’s work, but let’s make it clear first, the collaboration will end once I’ve finished my research.”

Tobirama Senju was taken aback, then laughed and scolded, "You mean your research ability is stronger than mine? This is the first time I've been provoked in this regard."

"Let's not talk about that. Second Hokage, do you have any weaknesses to tell us? Especially the Edo Tensei, you were the one who developed that ninjutsu."

"We can't do it. That guy—is his name Orochimaru? Orochimaru placed a restriction on us."
