"This is Mount Lingtai Fangcun, Cave of the Slanting Moon and Three Stars, a blessed land. The master is Patriarch Bodhi, who has many disciples under him."

Naruto hadn't finished his introduction.

"Naruto!"

A voice came from the sky. The three looked up and saw a thin, middle-aged man flying down as if he were an immortal.

"Teacher is here."

Naruto led the other two to greet him.

This way of arriving deeply shocked the young Sasuke and Sakura.

In any world, being able to fly was a sign of great power.

The newcomer landed lightly.

"Hello, teacher."

Naruto greeted him first, and the other two followed with scattered greetings.

"I dare not accept the title of teacher."

Listening to the pause, one could tell that the newcomer was Shen Gongbao.

This was a clone Naruto had created to teach them. As for how he would teach, Teacher Bao could decide for himself.

Naruto introduced them, "This is Shen Gongbao, Teacher Bao."

"Hello, Teacher Bao." x2

"Are you the ones who want to learn Ninjutsu from me?"

While the two weren't paying attention, Naruto glanced at him sideways, speechless.

He looked so much like the original, he could even accurately mimic his stutter.

Sasuke and Sakura were quite excited and nodded quickly.

"Very good. Since Naruto introduced you, I will accept you." Shen Gongbao assumed a starting stance. "Now, attack me with all your might."

Sasuke and Sakura had seen this situation before; they had just finished their test this morning, so they weren't surprised.

"Be careful, Teacher Bao."

Sasuke shouted. He also wanted to test the strength of this flying Teacher Bao and see how he compared to Teacher Kakashi.

His hand habitually went to his waist, and Sasuke found a few Shuriken there.

He quickly took them out and threw them accurately.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball!"

Since he wasn't lacking in Chakra, he didn't care about the consumption and unleashed his full power.

Unfortunately.

Whether it was the Shuriken, the Great Fireball, or the subsequent Fire Release techniques, they were all swatted away by Teacher Bao's palm.

Even Sasuke, who rushed forward to get close, was sent flying into the lake after just two exchanges to test the waters.

Sakura followed closely behind, also falling into the lake.

When the two climbed out of the lake, dripping wet, Shen Gongbao waved his hand again, and they instantly became dry.

As Sasuke and Sakura marveled at Teacher Bao's power and warmth, a torrent of scolding rained down on them.

"You've achieved nothing! You've achieved nothing! You are both 12 years old, yet your Chakra control is still a mess..." After the test, Shen Gongbao began to criticize them sternly.

Teacher Bao was really strict.

Naruto felt nervous for them.

Whatever, none of my business.

Naruto ran off to play with the Nine-Tails.

Meanwhile, the two continued their training. First, they had to master Chakra control, then there were specialized tests and career planning.

Four hours later.

Sasuke and Sakura's vision went black, and they returned to reality.

Teacher Bao only taught for two hours before leaving. The remaining time was for them to train on their own.

Returning so suddenly, the two hadn't adapted yet.

"Why are we back?"

Sasuke's voice was a little anxious.

He had just discovered such a great place and was planning to train all night, so why were they back already?

"I'm going to sleep."

Naruto yawned and rejected Sasuke's request to play together until dawn.

"Can we go find Teacher Bao to train again in the future?"

Naruto responded affirmatively, "Of course, but let's get this straight first. I'm the eldest disciple. As for you, Sasuke."

He pointed at Sasuke as he spoke, emphasizing, "Second disciple. And Sakura, third disciple. No, third younger sister."

Sakura: "You just said 'younger brother,' didn't you?"

Her dark personality wanted to use her newly learned Super Strength Taijutsu to knock some sense into Naruto's head.

Naruto looked at Sakura in surprise.

He really didn't expect her to have a talent for Chakra control.

Naruto possessed this talent too, and he knew very well that this talent could be enhanced in many ways.

Medical ninjutsu, anti-Genjutsu, and his self-created Super Strength Taijutsu.

Sakura's lack of Chakra was a drawback, but if he could create a Ninjutsu for her that sealed Chakra, making it convenient for future use, her potential strength wouldn't be low.

"Hey, do you guys agree or not?" Naruto asked with a mischievous grin.

He had already imagined the scene where the three of them would call each other Senior Brother, Second Junior Brother, and Third Junior Sister.

The scene was so beautiful that Naruto almost burst out laughing.

Their team would be called the "Journey to the West Combo."

Alright, he had inspiration for the next Hokage Rock mural.

Naruto's smile made the other two feel something was off. They exchanged a glance and firmly stated, "We disagree."

"Fine then," Naruto sighed in disappointment.

Was it too obvious? I'll be more careful next time.

His goal wasn't achieved, but he wasn't a bad person and wouldn't deny them the opportunity to train just because they disagreed.

"Let's leave it at that for now. Tomorrow, it's still four hours, at my place."

With the fun gone, Naruto's interest waned, and he started to usher them out. "If you have nothing else, you can leave. I want to sleep."

"Naruto, how long have you been training in the Immortal Realm?"

Immortal Realm?

Is that what Sasuke calls that place?

After thinking for a moment, Naruto didn't plan to change the name. "Since I started school at six, about 6 years."

"That long? Then when you were at school, you still..."

As he said this, for some reason, Sasuke suddenly recalled the 'Uzumaki the One-Man-Army incident' in their first year.

"Master told me not to be competitive. Otherwise, I wouldn't have waited until graduation to explode."

Sasuke nodded. Calculating, Naruto had been training for 6 years.

If he worked hard, he should be able to catch up in three years.

Sasuke asked his final question, "Do you still go in to train at night?"

"Of course."

Naruto replied matter-of-factly, "When I sleep, I'm inside training. Otherwise, do you think my strength would have come from?"

Sasuke: You train while you sleep at night? I want to do that too!

Seeing this, Sasuke looked at Naruto with a mix of hope and bashfulness and said, "Naruto, I... I want to..."

"No, you don't!"

His words were cut off by Naruto as soon as he started speaking.

He actually dares to ask.

I haven't even slept with a girl yet, and you want to sleep with me, a stinky guy?

Ugly, rejected.

Our relationship isn't that good yet.

"Hurry up and leave, you two. I'm going to get undressed. May I get warts if I undress?" Naruto began to rush them out.

Finally, looking at the empty room, Naruto found himself surprisingly accustomed to it.

He sensed his surroundings; the two had already left, and the surveillance was gone.

Naruto created a Shadow Clone.

He ordered the Shadow Clone to sleep. The clone was quite happy to just sleep and promptly went to bed.

In the blink of an eye, Naruto vanished using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

For the past few days, Old Daddy Fast Food had been closed.

This made many children in the village lose their smiles, but there was nothing he could do. Naruto needed a clone to go out and make a living.

Mainly to find some materials for him to create more clones.

These materials were, without a doubt, living people.

Of course, they were definitely not good people, otherwise Naruto wouldn't have chosen them as materials for creating clones.

Just a moment ago, Naruto received notification that the materials had been found.
