Shadow Clones Scout Mount Myōboku

Upon hearing Naruto's confirmation, Yamato nearly lost his balance and fell to the ground.

"How could this be? Could it be that the seal malfunctioned and allowed the Nine-Tails to escape?"

But that's not right. Once Tailed Beast leaves its Jinchuriki, the Jinchuriki will die.

Naruto, do you feel unwell anywhere?

"No, I feel great, I've never felt this good before."

Naruto jumped up and down on the spot. Without having to focus on blocking the Nine-Tailed Chakra invasion, he felt much lighter.

"Wood Release: Four Pillars Home!"

Yamato formed Yamato and used Wood Release Hand Seals, quickly constructing a wooden house out of thin air.

"Stop and keep going. Sakura, give Naruto a thorough medical checkup!"

Sakura is Tsunade's personal disciple and currently the best medical-nin in Konoha besides Tsunade. Perhaps she can find something out.

"Yes, Captain."

Sakura nodded quickly and dragged Naruto into the house.

An hour later, Sakura, who had thoroughly examined Naruto's body from head to toe, shook her head at Yamato.

Clearly, she did not detect anything abnormal.

"Let's go back to the village and report to the Hokage!"

Yamato sighed upon seeing this.

He had no clue what to do in this situation, so he could only go back to the village and see if Tsunade could come up with a solution or use the village's better equipment to conduct a more thorough examination.

Naruto, still basking in the blissful feeling of having been thoroughly examined by Sakura, suddenly froze, turned to Yamato, and said:

"Captain Yamato, I feel like Nine-Tails is back."

"???"

Yamato was completely bewildered.

Suddenly, Naruto vanished into thin air with a "bang."

"Naruto!"

Sakura was shocked to see this, but luckily Yamato and experienced:

"Don't panic, it's Reverse Summoning Technique. Naruto was probably Reverse Summoning by the Toad of Mount Myōboku."

"Where is this place?"

At Mount Myōboku, Naruto was somewhat dumbfounded as he looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings.

Just then, an orange-skinned Toad fell from the sky and landed next to Naruto:

"Naruto, it's me. I summoned you here using the Reverse Summoning Technique. This is Mount Myōboku."

"Gamikichi!"

Naruto immediately recognized the orange Toad as his summoning beast Gamikichi.

"Why were I brought here? I need to get back to the village to report on the mission."

"Fukasaku and Shima are looking for you, Lord Jiraiya has also been summoned Reverse Summoning. They are waiting for you at the temple gate."

Gamikichi replied.

After Gamabunta returned, he immediately told Fukasaku and Shima about his meeting with Hawking. Although the two high-ranking officials of Mount Myōboku found it hard to believe, they still managed to communicate with Jiraiya in Reverse Summoning and examine the contract scroll.

To their surprise, Hawking's name was indeed added to the scroll.

However, the name did not last; it mysteriously disappeared after about an hour.

So they immediately had Gamikichi summon Naruto in Reverse Summoning.

"The Perverted Sage is here too?"

Upon hearing his master's name, Naruto immediately headed towards the temple with Gamikichi.

When he arrived at the temple gate, he saw Jiraiya.

"Naruto, did the Nine-Tails inside you show any unusual behavior just now?"

Jiraiya asked about Nine-Tails as soon as they met, and Naruto honestly replied:

"Perverted Sage, how did you know that the Nine-Tails disappeared from my body just an hour ago, but has now reappeared?"

"There really is such a thing."

Jiraiya was stunned when he heard this. Could it be that another world really exists?

"I think it would be better to ask the Great Toad Sage about this."

"The Great Toad Sage is probably asleep again. You wait here for a while, and we'll go wake him up."

Fukasaku and Shima entered the Great Toad Sage's temple first.

Half an hour later, the Great Toad Sage, who had been awakened and had heard the whole story, slowly spoke:

"There are indeed many other worlds outside of this one. I don't know why this is happening, nor have I seen any new prophecies."

However, since he has already signed the contract, even if it's only for one hour each day, as long as he doesn't harbor any hostility towards us, our Toad Clan is willing to abide by the contract.

"Holy crap, this is something most people couldn't handle!"

In the early hours of the morning, after returning to his room at the Mutant School and taking a shower to prepare for bed, Hawking unleashed the Multi Shadow Clone he had created during the day.

In an instant, the training memories of more than a dozen Shadow Clone flooded into his brain, almost causing him to faint from the pain.

Physical exhaustion was nothing to him, given his Saiyan Bloodline, but the mental shock was extremely distressing.

After recovering, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Naruto was indeed extraordinary. He only used a dozen or so Shadow Clone to assist in his training, while Naruto used hundreds at a time.

What incredible willpower and nerves it takes to withstand the impact of hundreds of Shadow Clones.

But upon closer reflection, it's not surprising.

After all, Naruto's childhood experiences and his determination to become stronger and protect his comrades are things that someone born in modern society simply cannot compare to.

His childhood was unfortunate, but that was compared to a normal family. Compared to Naruto's situation, it was far worse.

Just as he could never have the same devotion and dedication to martial arts as Goku.

"Sleep, sleep."

Taking advantage of the fatigue brought on by the Shadow Clone, Hawking fell asleep immediately.

He slept until the afternoon of the next day before waking up.

After having a hearty meal at the cafeteria, he used the Sky Dance Technique to return to the remote forest from yesterday and loaded the Naruto template.

"Ninja Art: Summoning Technique!"

He bit his finger, quickly Hand Seals, and pressed it to the ground. Gamabunta's enormous body reappeared beneath him.

"Hey, Gamabunta again!"

When Hawking flew up to Gamabunta, he greeted him warmly.

Gamabunta didn't waste any words, and exhaled a smoke ring:

"Young man, your name is Hawking, right? I told the elders of Mount Myōboku about your situation yesterday. They want to see you today. Would you be willing to come with me to Mount Myōboku?"

"Of course, I'd also like to find out what happened."

Hawking pondered for a moment after hearing this, then nodded.

Since the time is synchronized, it is very likely that this Mount Myōboku is the Mount Myōboku in the Naruto World, rather than Mount Myōboku created out of thin air because of the Protagonist Template.

Otherwise, after his Protagonist Template finishes loading, Mount Myōboku should also disappear.

However, it's hard to say. In any case, if one wants to learn Senjutsu and verify some of one's conjectures, one will have to go to Mount Myōboku sooner or later.

"Alright, kid, wait a moment."

Seeing that Hawking agreed, Gamabunta was about to cancel the Summoning Technique and return to Mount Myōboku, where he would then perform Reverse Summoning Technique, but Hawking stopped him by raising his hand.
