Naruto: Naruto Hosted by the System

"I can definitely sense that this is a kind of eye technique called Kamui. Its effect is to distort space within sight and send the target into a space that I don't know about."

"Space-time ninjutsu?!" Naruto exclaimed in surprise.

"Hmm? Space-time ninjutsu is indeed rare, but Naruto, you don't need to get so excited, do you?" Kakashi asked, puzzled.

Naruto didn't answer his question immediately, but urged, "Kakashi-sensei, hurry up and show me your eye technique!"

"Why... does this eye technique consume so much chakra...?"

"Don't ask, just do it!"

Kakashi was startled; it was the first time he had ever seen Naruto so excited, and he immediately realized the importance of the matter.

The two didn't even find a place to land, and directly presented themselves in mid-air.

Kakashi pulled up his headband, revealing his Mangekyou Sharingan, and aimed at a mountain peak.

Naruto stared intently at the mountain that had been chosen as the test subject, waiting for what was about to happen.

"Divine power!"

Sure enough, the mountain peak looked as if it had fallen into a vortex, the space around it was distorted, and it disappeared from the spot.

Naruto took a deep breath.

At this point, even without systematic analysis, he could roughly guess some things.

"Kakashi-sensei, I'm going to tell you a conjecture, a very outrageous conjecture. You'd better be prepared."

Kakashi felt uneasy seeing Naruto so serious, so he said in a comforting tone, "Don't worry, Naruto. Don't let my appearance fool you. I used to be in the Anbu, so my mental fortitude isn't as bad as you think."

“…Sasuke thought so too before.” Naruto shook his head helplessly.

"Then shall I say it?"

"You say it."

"Obito Uchiha might still be alive."

"what?!"

Kakashi practically bulged out the Sharingan he'd transplanted from Obito Uchiha, completely forgetting that he'd just said, "Your mental fortitude isn't as bad as you think."

Naruto had anticipated this and didn't pursue it too much. Instead, he continued with an even more startling conjecture: "The masked man who caused the Nine-Tails' rampage might be Obito Uchiha."

"What?!!!"

If Kakashi's feelings were seven parts shock and three parts surprise just now, then his feelings now are utter shock!

"Naruto...you can't just say things like that..." Kakashi trembled all over, staring intently at Naruto's face, not missing any change in his expression.

He hoped that Naruto would suddenly burst out laughing and then he would hear something like, "Okay, actually the second guess was a lie."

Unfortunately, Naruto's expression remained unchanged, and he remained serious throughout.

“My parents left a chakra in my body, which made me know what happened on the night of the Nine-Tails’ rampage. The reason Kurama went berserk that day was because he was controlled by a masked man.”

"The masked man's distinguishing feature is that he only reveals his right eye, and that right eye is the Mangekyou Sharingan; the Mangekyou eye technique is of the space-time type, and its effect is very similar to Kamui."

"Doesn't that sound like a huge coincidence? If Obito Uchiha were still alive, he would probably only have one Mangekyou Sharingan in his right eye, and it's not impossible that his eye technique would be Kamui."

At this point, Kakashi clutched his head in anguish, because he realized that the more Naruto talked, the more he believed that absurd conjecture.

Naruto didn't stop there; he continued to unleash his attacks—

"Furthermore, why is Kakashi-sensei's Sharingan the Mangekyou Sharingan? He clearly doesn't have Uchiha blood, does he? Does that mean Obito Uchiha's Sharingan was already the Mangekyou Sharingan when he first awakened it?"

"No, there's another possibility: he evolved the Mangekyou Sharingan later, and as the owner of the Sharingan, he influenced Kakashi-sensei."

"Although it is difficult to recover bodies during wartime, since we have not seen Obito Uchiha's body, we cannot completely conclude that he is dead."

“Obito Uchiha and the masked man have never appeared at the same time.”

Kakashi stared blankly up at the sky.

His facial expression was contorted at that moment, a mixture of surprise, shock, pain, and disbelief.

If he were an ordinary Sharingan user, he might have activated the Mangekyou Sharingan right now.

It was simply because Naruto's words were so absurd, yet they lingered in Kakashi's mind.

Imagine this: your best friend from the past, your hero, turns out to be the culprit who killed your teacher...

How could he not believe it?

Naruto waited silently for Kakashi to accept this conjecture.

His thought was the same as when he told Sasuke the truth about the massacre of his clan: he couldn't let people make choices without being kept in the dark.

Next, he will definitely seek revenge on the masked man, but if the masked man is really Obito Uchiha, then it won't just be Naruto's problem alone.

Once Kakashi had recovered, Naruto slowly dropped another bombshell:

"Kakashi-sensei, one of the reasons I'm telling you this conjecture is that I already know the whereabouts of the masked man."

Kakashi suddenly turned to look at Naruto, "Where is he?"

"Akatsuki Organization".

"The Akatsuki?"

Kakashi was even more confused now.

Obito, why did you join such a vicious organization? Have you forgotten your original dream?

"According to the intelligence I have, the Akatsuki's goal is to collect the nine tailed beasts, and the Nine-Tails' rampage may have started because of this."

Hearing this, Kakashi's gaze became even more confused. "Why are they collecting the Tailed Beasts? They can't possibly be trying to start a war, can they?"

"That's certainly possible."

"..."

War... Obito used to be a peace lover...

Naruto walked up to Kakashi, patted him on the shoulder, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Kakashi-sensei, take this time to think things through."

"After all, we will definitely have to fight the Akatsuki in the future."

Kakashi nodded blankly.

Yes, since the Akatsuki's goal is to collect the Tailed Beasts, there's no reason for them to let Naruto, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, go.

Besides, if all of this were true, wouldn't Obito become the enemy who killed Naruto's parents?

If Naruto wants to avenge his parents and kill Obito in the future, what should he do?

I'm afraid I'll have to personally end Obito's sinful life as his best friend...

"Naruto, what are your plans next? Are you going to take the initiative to find the Akatsuki?"

"Speaking of which, I have actually already recruited two members of the Akatsuki organization as my subordinates."

"???"

"However, we probably won't have any contact with the Akatsuki for the time being. We need to deal with the Land of Lightning first; their prisoners are still in our hands."

"After dealing with the Land of Lightning, I'll go to the Land of Water. I've already planted a hidden hand there."

"So there shouldn't be any contact with the Akatsuki for a while. They can't possibly have people in the Land of Lightning or the Land of Water, right?"

After returning to Konoha Village, the system temporarily set aside the Akatsuki organization, which it was uncertain when it would be encountered again, and immediately began researching the Oni-Garra Technique.

While waiting, Naruto didn't sit idle; he planned to learn some ninjutsu on his own.

"Now, I have powerful ninjutsu like the Sage Art: Rasenshuriken, sensory abilities like Kagura's Mind's Eye, sealing techniques like the Adamantine Sealing Chains and the Four Symbols Sealing Chains, defense with Kurama's Chakra Cloak, and even healing with a large amount of chakra to perform the Palm Healing Technique to deal with most situations."

"In that case, the goal is clear—I want to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique!"

To be fair, Naruto's speed is definitely not slow now, especially since he can further enhance himself with Sage Mode.

In short-distance situations, because the Flying Thunder God Technique has reaction time, Naruto's own speed may not be slower than the Flying Thunder God Technique.

However, if a long-distance movement is needed, such as from Konoha to Sunagakure, the Flying Thunder God Technique is much faster than running there.

Although the chakra consumed by the Flying Thunder God Technique is proportional to the distance it travels, Naruto has no shortage of chakra.

"Moreover, by getting acquainted with space-time ninjutsu now, we can be more at ease when facing Obito Uchiha in the future."

After all, his own father had used the Flying Thunder God Technique to counter Kamui.

Having made up his mind, Naruto took out the Flying Thunder God scroll from the ninjutsu library.

By the way, the system has already spent half an hour completing the administrative tasks left by Kakashi, so there's plenty of free time now.

Because he inherited his father's talent, Naruto's talent in space-time ninjutsu is not bad.

His own reactions are also very quick, so there's no need to worry about not understanding the situation after teleporting.

As for learning methods...

"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"

Naruto decisively created thousands of shadow clones while simultaneously learning the Flying Thunder God Technique.

He didn't have the ridiculously strong analytical ability of the system; no, it should be said that no one in the entire ninja world could do that.

Therefore, Naruto chose the learning method that best suited him.

"If once isn't enough, try a thousand times; if one person isn't enough, use a thousand people!"

......

Time flies, and a week has passed in no time.

Inside the training ground, Naruto once again retrieved a thousand memories and sat on the ground, panting heavily.

Even Naruto needs time to process a thousand memories before he can fully absorb them.

This wasn't ineffective, because through these repeated memory retrievals, Naruto successfully learned the Flying Thunder God Technique!

"It took me a week to learn it. It seems my talent is just so-so, and I need to work harder."
