Chapter 322

Such an item would normally be protected by a reinforced platoon of elite members of the Anbu.

But tonight, with no one watching over it, it was stolen directly by Naruto Uzumaki.

All of this was Hiruzen Sarutobi's painstaking effort.

The son of the Hokage is the Hokage, and the son of the strategist is the strategist.

Bloodline... will definitely show.

Ordinary tests wouldn't be enough for Naruto Uzumaki.

So let's use this special method to let him showcase his talents.

As for Mizuki's conspiracy...

This, coincidentally, is also an opportunity.

The words I spoke to Iruka at dusk.

Iruka, who has had similar experiences to Naruto, will surely be able to understand Naruto and eventually resolve his inner conflict.

Let that child understand the true meaning of the Will of Fire...

In the jungle in the dead of night.

Akito and Kushina arrived.

Soon, the two met Naruto Uzumaki had mastered and learned the A-rank "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique" at lightning speed.

Naruto may seem slow-witted, but he actually has an extraordinary talent for learning.

Kushina was so surprised that she covered her mouth.

This moment.

She finally believed that Naruto had inherited her and Minato's talents.

He... is not a loser!

He's a genius!

Soon, Naruto encountered Iruka and Mizuki.

In the end, Iruka empathized with Naruto and helped him resolve his inner conflict, making him understand that there were people in the village who cared about him.

Overwhelmed with emotion, Naruto wiped away his tears and immediately created 1,000 Shadow Clone.

A massive number of Shadow Clone instantly overwhelmed Mizuki, a mere Chunin, turning him into a pig's head.

Looking at this massive number of Shadow Clone.

Kushina looked on incredulously.

She then realized...

It was the "Eight Trigrams Seal" set up by the Minato that took effect.

Naruto's Chakra at this time is approximately 1 cal.

By age 16, it might become 4 calories.

The purpose of the Eight Trigrams Seal is to seize the Nine-Tails 'Chakra, purify it, and restore it to the host's Chakra.

More than 100 calories of "Nine-Tails Purification Chakra" were used up, becoming the energy consumed by the Shadow Clone.

At that moment, Kushina understood her husband Minato Namikaze's good intentions.

The amount of Chakra restored is already incredible.

What if one day in the future, Naruto completely masters the power of the Nine-Tails...

Kushina pondered these thoughts, she momentarily forgot to breathe.

A ray of hope shone in her eyes.

For the first time, she believed that Minato's sacrifice was meaningful.

My child will definitely grow up and defeat Amakawa Akito!!

As the morning light rises.

Iruka put Forehead Protector on Naruto, acknowledging his graduation.

"Congratulations... Naruto, you... graduated!"

"Iruka- sensei~~~~!"

Naruto hugged Iruka tightly, tears of emotion and joy streaming down his face.

Kushina watched this scene with great satisfaction.

After all, the weather cleared up, and she was fine again.

"Snort..."

A cold laugh from Akito was like a bucket of cold water being poured over her, causing Kushina's smile to freeze instantly.

Kushina lowered her head silently, secretly making plans.

Before my child... Naruto grows up, I must... protect him.

The two returned to the hotel in the early morning.

Having witnessed the theft of the Scroll of Seals in the middle of the night, Kushina's words and actions have changed drastically.

She was no longer just sad.

She stopped crying and sobbing.

Those eyes were already filled with hope.

Although she still didn't defy Akito, it was clear that one thing was written in her eyes, "When my son Naruto grows up, I'll beat you to a pulp!"

Kushina was confident that Naruto had inherited excellent bloodlines.

To this, the Akito simply gave a cold smile.

Building confidence is a good thing.

But.

The more confident you are now, the more devastated you will be later.

One day later.

Graduation ceremony for the Ninja Academy Ninja Academy.

Naruto Uzumaki appeared here.

He wore a shiny Forehead Protector on his forehead, looking very proud of himself.

Sasuke, Sakura, and the others were quite surprised to see Naruto there.

Didn't he... fail his graduation exam?

What's the purpose of the forehead Forehead Protector?

At this point, the other kids were still unaware.

Naruto Uzumaki has started using the extra 100-card power bank converted from the "Eight Trigrams Seal," along with the Third Hokage's special training in "Multiple Shadow Clone," embarking on a path of... well, I mean, "Effort."

Soon.

Naruto noticed Sasuke sitting obediently in his seat.

He provoked Sasuke because he was unhappy with him.

Following the development of the original work.

He and Sasuke will exchange their first kisses, recreating a famous scene from Hokage.

However.

The table wobbled as a small stone flew in from who-knows-where.

Naruto Uzumaki lost his footing and stumbled back to the ground.

Who is it?

Naruto Uzumaki scratched his head, unable to find the mastermind.

This scene caused Kushina's expression to change.

Because...

"I never expected... Naruto to bully others..."

When Kushina came to Konoha.

She was bullied by others.

Kushina then retaliated.

This is why it earned the nickname "blood red chili pepper".

But now, Naruto is throwing his fist at an innocent person.

In terms of strength, Sasuke is excellent, but in terms of identity, he is a survivor of the massacre of his clan.

At the age of seven, Sasuke, who possessed the proudest Uchiha clan and bloodline, experienced the night of the clan's annihilation.

From then on, he became taciturn.

He was always alone, his mind filled with thoughts of killing his brother and seeking revenge.

That's how Sasuke behaved – he kept his tail between his legs.

However, he suffers from Naruto Uzumaki's bullying at school.

The villagers bullied Naruto Uzumaki, Naruto Uzumaki retaliated by bullying Sasuke.

Is this what they call... the weak throwing punches at the even weaker?

"Heh, some people might call this ' Sasuke is my good friend, so I'm not bullying him, I'm just being friendly.'"

The Akito sneered.

The small stone we just saw was made by someone from the Akito.

"What good friends... this is no friendship at all. Only someone with rotten values would glorify school bullying..."

Kushina shouted.

She began to worry about her child.

Perhaps Naruto's bloodline is fine, and his abilities are outstanding... but what if his personality has become terrible?

Kushina then realized...

Her status as a prisoner.

She immediately fell silent and stopped speaking.

However... seeing her best friend Mikoto's child being bullied by her own child still made her feel somewhat uncomfortable...

Kushina was incredibly conflicted.

She felt she couldn't just stand by and watch Naruto go astray...

So, should she continue making a deal with the man beside her?

247. Akito: Your son has the strongest will.

Not long after, Kushina saw something that made her even tremble with anger.

Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura were assigned to the same class.

Noon.

While Sasuke was eating rice balls, Naruto ambushed Sasuke.
