"Damn it! Damn it!"
"I'm determined to make everyone look at me in a completely new light!"
"Clone Technique!"
In the woods, Naruto was practicing his Clone Technique alone, clearly deeply affected by the ridicule he had received from his classmates earlier that day.
However, each time the Clone Technique, it either summoned a puddle of mud or Naruto was swaying unsteadily.
[Kushina: You damn Nine-Tails, was it you who caused trouble inside my son's body!]
At that moment, Kushina immediately realized that the problem definitely Nine-Tails. Even if Naruto was stupid, he couldn't possibly not have mastered the Clone Technique.
Furthermore, Naruto's hand seal sequence was correct, so there is only one possibility: the Nine-Tails 'Chakra affected Naruto's own Chakra.
Otherwise, how could a mere Clone Technique be unable to be used indefinitely?
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: But I remember Naruto used Ninjutsu in a previous review, didn't he?]
At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi said in confusion, "There's no reason why I can't learn the Clone Technique but can learn other Ninjutsu."
Don't they even look at the Ninjutsu Naruto has learned? Multi Shadow Clone, Rasengan.
Because the Nine-Tails 'Chakra was too strong, it interfered with Naruto's own Chakra. As a result, while he could control high-energy Ninjutsu very well, Chakra control became his weakness.
The Clone Technique tests Chakra control, and both Shadow Clone and Rasengan require a large amount of Ninjutsu, so Nine-Tails) cannot affect Naruto in this aspect.
Unbeknownst to Naruto, while he diligently practiced his Clone Technique, a Byakugan girl was secretly watching Naruto from nearby.
[Kushina: Hinata is so cute, is she still secretly watching over Naruto?!]
Kushina gazed at Hinata on the screen with a deeply moved expression. Having such a daughter-in-law was Naruto's incredible luck.
[Hyuga Hizashi: Ah, big brother, isn't Hinata your future daughter? Why does it seem like Hinata has had feelings for Naruto since they were little?]
[Hyuga Hiashi: Well, I don't know what happened in between.]
Hyuga Hiashi somewhat puzzled. It felt like his future precious daughter was the one pursuing someone else. This was the princess of his Hyuga Clan!
[Hozuki Mangetsu: Didn't that Naruto guy say he likes Sakura?]
At this point, Hozuki Mangetsu had to chime in, saying that Sakura likes Sasuke, and Naruto and Sasuke don't get along. I can't believe how exciting it would be if these three were on the same team.
Naruto had practiced diligently hundreds of times, ultimately went home with great regret.
After trying so many times without making any progress, Naruto began to doubt whether he was really an idiot.
"What's wrong, Naruto?" Teuchi, who was packing up his stall, saw Naruto looking extremely dejected.
He quite liked the lively little guy, but the people in the village...
"It's nothing," Naruto said dejectedly; it was obvious to everyone that Naruto was in a bad mood.
"Would you like some ramen?" Teuchi asked warmly.
"It's alright, it's on me. I haven't closed up shop yet anyway," Teuchi said nonchalantly.
[Jiraiya: Ichiraku, I didn't expect you to become an old man.]
[Minato Namikaze: Yeah, I remember the last time I went to eat ramen was with Kushina and the others.]
At this moment, Minato remarked with some emotion, "I never imagined that Naruto's future would also involve spending time with Ichiraku Ramen."
But Naruto's next words left Minato stunned.
"Forget it, I don't have any money!" Naruto said helplessly.
Although the Ichiraku Ramen in front of me looked incredibly tempting, the thought of having nothing to eat made me decide to head home early.
[Kushina:??]
[Minato Namikaze:!!]
[Jiraiya: Naruto, this isn't a good joke! Or is it, old man...]
Jiraiya had already noticed something amiss. The son of the Fourth Hokage couldn't even afford a bowl of ramen? Was this for real?
[Kushina: Third Hokage, what's going on? Even though we're not by Naruto's side, the money we've earned is enough for Naruto to live comfortably!]
[Kushina: If you don't give me an explanation today, I, the Third Generation Old Man, will rip up your office, you believe me!]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Well, actually, there's more to this than meets the eye.]
At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi his spine, "It can't be that bad, can it? I remember that even if Minato was incorruptible, he was still Elite Jonin. It's impossible that he didn't leave Naruto a sufficient legacy."
This is putting me in a difficult position. Should I push the blame onto my good friend? That might not be a good idea.
But this won't fool Minato. Although Minato may not care much about these things, he will definitely entrust Naruto to him before he dies.
But look at Naruto, he can't even afford ramen...
[Minato Namikaze: Third Hokage, you owe me an explanation!]
At this moment, Minato Namikaze stopped using even the most respectful language, hoping this was just a special case and not what he was thinking.
But next, Minato will find out what true despair is.
Naruto looked at the groups of children gathered together and felt a deep envy in his eyes.
But when Naruto approached them with great enthusiasm to greet them, he was met with harsh words.
"Let's go, don't stay with him."
"Tch, you can have this swing. We don't want to play with the fox demon."
At this moment, Naruto seemed to be pretending that nothing had happened, but was he really so indifferent behind his seemingly nonchalant expression?
At this moment, even if Naruto were walking down the street, he could hear the malice coming from behind him from time to time. No one could know how Naruto pretended to be nonchalant.
It wasn't until Naruto entered a mask shop and looked at the dazzling array of masks that Naruto showed a rare happy expression.
Until the boss came up.
"You bastard, get out of here!" The shop owner was furious when he saw Naruto walk into his shop. How could such a thing have gotten into his shop?
The boss shoved Naruto away.
"What are you doing all of a sudden?!" Naruto struggled to speak, feeling utterly wronged by this unfair treatment.
"What are you doing here, you jinx!" The boss looked at Naruto as if he were a Naruto, his eyes filled with disgust.
"I just came to see the masks," Naruto argued vehemently. He had no intention of doing anything else; he was just there to look around.
"I've given it to you, now get lost!" The shopkeeper impatiently threw the mask at Naruto's head, then turned and left.
I didn't do anything, why, why is everyone treating me like this!
At this moment, Naruto's heart was filled with dissatisfaction. This hatred had not yet erupted, but if things continued like this, it would definitely happen one day.
