Evil God Contract Added, Plan Successful

With Mui cold expression, Wuwei glanced at the prisoners sprawled haphazardly in the exercise yard. He then looked at Yujiro Hanma - Naruto, who resembled a wild beast, his eyes growing even colder.

"The warden is here! That kid's in big trouble!"

"That's not necessarily true. Maybe that kid can win. He's already this strong even without Chakra!"

"Yes, it's completely beyond the realm of humanity, isn't it?"

"How could a human possibly generate a shockwave? This is the first time in my life I've ever seen a punch generated by the flesh. It's terrifying."

The warden looked to be only in his thirties, a cold and stern middle-aged man. His oversized, heavy warden uniform gave him a heavy, oppressive aura.

Wuwei, a former Jonin of Kusagakure, belonged to the Kusanagi faction. Because of his reliability, he was put in charge of Hozuki Castle Prison. On the surface, he was an impartial and incorruptible warden, but in secret, he was a fanatical member of the Kusanagi faction.

The leadership of the Land of Grass is divided into the Grass Flower Faction and the Grass Real Faction, one advocating peace and the other advocating war. The country is small, with a fancy name, but its ideology is actually similar to that of Konohagakure's former Anbu and Root.

The warden of this prison supported the Grass Real Faction in his early years, and sacrificed his own son's life to the Box of Paradise, only to be reduced to ashes.

With his son gone, Mui was consumed by guilt and anguish for over a decade. Naruto knew perfectly well that his goal was also the Box of Paradise, but not to make the Land of Grass stronger; it was to revive his son.

At this moment, Naruto was staring at the approaching warden, a contemptuous smile on his face.

"Finally willing to come out? Hozuki Castle Prison is nothing special, there's not a single one who can fight!"

"Naruto Uzumaki?" Wuwei's expression Mui. "You were the one who caused a disturbance in the prison last night for no reason, and you are the one who is deliberately provoking me now."

"What's wrong?" Naruto asked, seemingly unconcerned.

Everyone held their breath, watching the Yakumi scene unfold, and couldn't help but swallow nervously.

Finally, Mui moved.

A surge of fiery red Chakra erupted, activating the Heavenly Prison Seal before Naruto could react. Two intersecting chains appeared on Naruto's chest, dazzling like magma.

"Ah!!!" Naruto was kicked away by Mumi and fell to the ground screaming in pain.

It was resolved in an instant.

The onlookers were stunned once again; Naruto, the center of attention, hadn't pulled off any miracle. Under the suppression of this Mui seal, even someone as strong as a beast would fall?

As Naruto collapsed to the ground in agony with a thud, many people closed their eyes in despair. Even though they didn't care about Naruto's life or death, they still hoped that Naruto could create a miracle.

At least give them hope that they can still resist Mui even in shackles. But now everything has vanished; it was something completely impossible.

Even though Naruto is incredibly powerful, Wuwei was able to restrain him Mui a single seal, completely suppressing him.

Ryūzetsu stood at a distance, giving Naruto a deep look, and subconsciously felt that something was wrong. This guy was extremely arrogant, charging around recklessly as if he had no brains.

Although he was ultimately suppressed by the seal, even he himself was able to break through the seal and forcibly use Chakra, so there was no reason for him to collapse before he could even condense Chakra.

Judging from the current situation, the person was only kicked once and wasn't injured at all. Besides, with such a strong physique, a kick would be nothing more than a drop in the ocean.

That's so strange. What exactly was that person's purpose? Before leaving, Ryūzetsu took one last look at Naruto, Naruto was now completely lying on the ground, no longer struggling.

One day later.

Naruto opened his eyes and looked at the Little Black Room with a triumphant smile. He had already obtained the method to break the seal when Mui activated it.

Sealing Jutsu may vary, but they all share the same fundamental principle: there is no seal that the Uzumaki Clan cannot break.

With a loud bang, the Little Black Room was pulled open from the outside. Bright, blinding light shone inside, causing Naruto to squint. Several jailers dragged him back into his cell.

Not eating for a day and a night didn't put too much strain on his body. Back in his cell, he took some dry rations from his Sealing Space and slowly ate them.

Not long after, the sound of forcefully banging on the wall came from next door again.

"What?" Naruto walked over, and sure enough, it was Ryūzetsu from next door, that foolish Grass Anbu. "Do you have any suggestions this time?"

"No, I just wanted to ask if you're alright now?" Ryūzetsu was somewhat speechless. "I heard that people who enter the punishment room don't get any food, and it's all dark all around."

"No need to hear about it, it's true. But," Naruto held out the dry rations in his hand, "Would you like some to help you recover?"

"By the way, is your Anbu so poor? Don't you have any funding for infiltration missions?"

Ryūzetsu: "."

She covered her ears, not wanting to hear anymore. This person was simply a demon; if this continued, it would affect her mind. Where did the Anbu get its funding? It's ridiculous.

Stop talking about funding. Their loyalty to the village is unwavering; a few dollars is nothing.

Ryūzetsu didn't accept the rations. Instead, he silently walked to the corner of the cell, squatted down, and hugged his knees.

Hearing no sound from next door, Naruto smiled but didn't react. He yawned, then went back to lie down. It wasn't until he went out for fresh air again that he saw Ryūzetsu.

Small frame, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, tsk.

"Let's go out for a breather?" he asked, stopping in his tracks.

"Hmm." Ryūzetsu felt something was off, a little awkward.

"Let's go then, I have something I want to talk to you about." Naruto gestured for the other person to follow, then turned and left. "Ah, it must be a beautiful sunny day outside."

Ryūzetsu remained silent and could only follow.

Since the prisoners held in Hozuki Castle are all vicious and ruthless individuals, they are not assigned any labor, as these people are always restless. Once they come into contact with the tools, they will surely cause trouble again.

Even if they can't escape, they'll cause trouble in prison. To avoid trouble, aside from necessary exercise, they're limited to activities like eating in the canteen.

Some people deliberately eat the white fruit of the Hozuki Grass to become paralyzed and then go to the infirmary to rest.

"Why does it seem like there aren't many people?" Naruto stood in the exercise yard, looking around. The prisoners around him all kept their distance when they saw him, as if they had seen some kind of plague god.

"It's probably related to your behavior the day before yesterday. Nobody wants to mess with you," Ryūzetsu coughed and explained. "A ninja who loses Chakra is actually... well, you know."

Looking back on that time, even Ryūzetsu felt a little ashamed. What kind of person could do something like that? What did they eat to grow up like that?

"That was entirely due to my own efforts." Naruto turned around and patted Ryūzetsu on the shoulder. "Keep up the good work."

"Can you achieve that level just by working hard?" she asked instinctively.

"No, you're still missing a Deep Blue skill point."

"What?"

"It's nothing, let's not talk about that now." Naruto pulled Ryūzetsu closer and asked in a low voice, "You must have had a purpose in infiltrating here, right? Do you want to tell me?"

"I have no ulterior motive!" Ryūzetsu said after a second of pause.

"Really? The way you look at the warden doesn't seem like it's without purpose. That look... tsk tsk, I don't believe there's no deep-seated hatred between you."

As he spoke, Naruto grabbed the Ryūzetsu and revealed a sly smile.

"I didn't! Besides, this is my private matter, there's no need to report it to you!" Ryūzetsu was still being stubborn, but he couldn't push him away no matter what, completely forgetting how strong Naruto's body was.

In the distance, a group of hardened criminals stared at the two people tugging at each other in the exercise yard with hostile eyes.

"Damn it, they released them so quickly!"

"There's nothing we can do. He didn't put up any resistance in front of the warden, so locking him up for another day is understandable."

"We can't beat him at all. Should we try to team up and take him down? Otherwise, we'll be bullied sooner or later."

"Let's not talk about that now. Look! Could that person have some kind of weird fetish?"

"It really is true, is he touching that pretty boy?"

"I knew that pretty boy looked unfamiliar and something was off. He looked so wronged, how could he be one of us!"

"What should we do? We can't beat him. What if he uses force? We'll be doomed!"

"Pah, what unlucky words you're spouting! Besides, only delicate people like you would be targeted! Didn't you see? The guy arguing with that bastard is obviously a pretty boy."

While the onlookers were still speculating, Naruto didn't care at all and continued to apply pressure to Ryūzetsu.

"Really? I heard that Mui used to be Jonin of Kusagakure and had a son." He said with a grin, "He should be about your age, but he died later."

"What's your name, Muku?"

"Enough! Muku didn't disappear at all. He was killed by his father!" Ryūzetsu couldn't take it anymore and gritted his teeth.

"That bastard! He doesn't deserve to be a father at all!"

"Do you know the whereabouts of the Box of Paradise?" Naruto asked.

"What?" Ryūzetsu instantly sobered up, frowned slightly, and said warily, "I don't know anything about the Box of Paradise. You've asked the wrong person."

"Really? I do know a little about it. Muku was killed by that kind of thing, wasn't he?"

"How... how did you know!"

"I guessed. I also know that Mui is currently in contact with the higher-ups of the Grass Real Faction, and they are hiding inside the Hozuki Castle prison." Naruto revealed an enigmatic smile.

"I think it's fate that we're locked in adjacent cells. How about we make a deal?"

"What kind of deal?" Ryūzetsu asked cautiously.

"Don't be so cautious. Would I ever harm you?" Naruto somewhat awkwardly, pulling the Ryūzetsu towards him again. "You'll definitely be interested in this deal. Would you like to hear about it?"

"I'm not interested."

"Really? So the resurrection of Muku is also something you're not interested in?" Naruto's smile deepened.

"You can revive Muku?" Ryūzetsu was stunned and turned to look at him.

"Of course I can't do that, are you kidding me?" Naruto released her and waved his hand.

"What you just said..."

"Just because I can't do it doesn't mean others can't, like Mui." Naruto snapped his fingers. "After all, Muku is his son, and more importantly, his only son."

"So what?" Ryūzetsu asked.

"Wuwei are also eyeing the Box of Paradise, Mui they? I remember that as long as the Box of Paradise is opened, one of that person's wishes can be granted." He shook his finger.

"That Box of Paradise." Ryūzetsu's gaze wandered; she too was now wavering.

If that box can really revive Muku, then what should be done now? Her mission is to prevent the Box of Paradise from opening.

"It's alright, I have a way to make Mui express his wish to the Box of Paradise to revive Muku," Naruto said shamelessly.

In reality, Wuwei was once a Jonin of Kusagakure and a fanatic influenced by the Grass Fruit. But after his son, Wugou, died and all he received in return was a dismissive remark from the higher-ups that he didn't have enough chakra, he changed.

Currently, Warden Muwa Mui still outwardly working for Grass Real Faction, using every means to open the Box of Paradise and make Kusagakure stronger.

In reality, this man was adept at concealing his true intentions. He did indeed want to open the Box of Paradise, but not for the sake of the Land of Grass, but to resurrect his dead son.

This secret is known only to Mui; even Ryūzetsu is right in front of him, is kept in the dark.

"Resurrection. Muku?" Ryūzetsu took a step back, his eyes fixed on him. "Are you really sure?"

"Ninety-nine percent!" he nodded.

"Then what should I do?" Ryūzetsu finally asked, looking up.

"Sign an agreement, an agreement to serve me." Naruto smiled, his true intentions revealed. "Of course, I won't force you; you are free to refuse."

"But if I may be frank, you can't outmaneuver Mui. He will definitely find a way to open the Box of Paradise. And you people from the Grass Flower Faction have been lurking in the shadows all along. How confident are you in stopping him?"

"Don't end up failing completely and ending up with nothing to show for it."

"Who exactly are you?" Ryūzetsu, her gaze sharpening. "How could an outsider possibly know so much about the village?"

"Your village? It's long since disintegrated." Naruto glanced at her with a dismissive expression. "Just grab anyone of slightly importance, gather some information, and you'll find out everything."

"The reason why no other ninja villages are interested in Kusagakure is simply because it is too chaotic. That is your advantage."

"You... you really?" Ryūzetsu hesitated genuinely this time. "If I agree to your request, can you really guarantee the resurrection of Muku?"

"Of course, I, Uchiha Naruto Uzumaki, always keep my word." He patted his chest, paused for a moment, and then placed his hand directly on her chest.

With a snap, the seal that the prison had placed on Ryūzetsu was easily broken by him.

"Is this enough sincerity?" Naruto asked. "Some things and some opportunities in life only come once and never again, so you have to make the most of them."

"Don't you want to see Muku one more time?"

Naruto's words were persuasive and enticing, like the whispers of a demon, and his smile grew wider.

"I'll ask you one last time, regarding this deal, do you agree?"

"Yes, I agree." Ryūzetsu gritted his teeth and nodded directly. "Remember what you said, or I will never let you off the hook!"

"Okay!" Naruto smiled sincerely.
