"So... so awesome! Is it Body Flicker Technique?!"
"It's too fast! I can't see the movement at all!"
"Damn it... I didn't expect Genin from Konoha to be so strong. If I had known, I should have bet heavily on him!"
In the stands, even though Gaara had revealed an inhuman and terrifying form, the situation of the battle did not turn around as everyone expected. That golden figure still dominates the game with an overwhelming attitude.
Merchants and nobles from all over the world burst into enthusiastic exclamation and praise. In their opinion, Naruto just performed an extremely fast Body Flicker Technique, which was so fast that it exceeded the limit of capture by the naked eye.
However, in the eyes of others, the meaning of this scene is far from being summed up by the word "fast".
"This... this space fluctuation... can't be wrong..."
Kai looked puzzled as Kakashi suddenly stood up from his seat, Sharingan locked onto the golden flash of light in the field, "It's really Flying Thunder God Technique! Teacher..."
The elusive and unconventional way of moving space not only brought a huge shock, but also aroused a surge of sadness and deep nostalgia in Kakashi's heart.
Not only Kakashi, but also many senior Konoha Jonin and Chunin in the audience showed similar expressions - shocked and enlightened.
Even Hayate Gekko, as the referee, lost his composure for a moment. He knew the symbolic meaning of this technique better than anyone else, because from a certain perspective, he had also been instructed by that adult and barely touched the threshold of this technique.
Although the child's identity has never been officially disclosed, speculations about his blond hair, blue eyes, identity as Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and that special last name have been circulating in the village for many years. At this moment, the reappearance of [Flying Thunder God Technique] is like the last piece of a puzzle, completely confirming the long-buried truth - this child named Uzumaki Naruto is the biological son of Fourth Hokage and Minato Namikaze!
Silent shock spread among the informed Konoha Ninja, and an atmosphere mixed with complex emotions of guilt and nostalgia began to spread.
For another group of people in the audience, however, this realization was anything but reassuring news. The faces of the Ninja representatives sent by various countries instantly became extremely solemn.
Several Hidden Cloud Village Ninja stared at the golden figure in the field in disbelief, their eyes full of shock, fear, and unconcealable panic.
They immediately stood up without hesitation and left the noisy stands quickly and quietly - this vital information must be immediately sent back to Hidden Cloud Village and reported to Lord Raikage! Konoha's Fourth Hokage actually left behind such a terrifying heir!
The representatives of Stone Village had similar reactions. They tried to remain calm, but their clenched fists and rapid breathing revealed their inner unrest.
The reappearance of Flying Thunder God Technique means that Konoha may once again have a strategic Ninja who can single-handedly turn the tide of the war... let alone a Jinchuriki!
So, at this moment, Naruto on the court looked at Gaara, who fell to the ground and temporarily lost the ability to move. As the "initiator" of this riot, what was he thinking in his mind?
His thoughts had already drifted elsewhere...
Flying Thunder God: Second Step...Naruto was thinking about the move just now in his heart. The name is too simple, right? It simply doesn't match its cool effect.
Having just successfully imitated his father's iconic tactics, he marveled at how handsome this move was in actual combat, but also felt deeply puzzled and disgusted by its unpretentious naming.
How could such a powerful move have such an ordinary name? He immediately started ordinary re-creation in his heart.

... Hmm! This name is impressive enough. Naruto nodded with satisfaction, unilaterally decided on this new name, and thought confidently, since he has the right to inherit, changing his name is not too much, right?
Naruto didn't care at all. In order to be able to use Flying Thunder God Technique legitimately, he had automatically been put on the list of certain forces that "must pay close attention to" or even "removed at all costs".
Of course, if those guys really came to the door for no good reason... he wouldn't mind changing his identity and letting [Menma] go and "communicate" with them.
"Your Excellency Kazekage..." Third Hokage's voice was low. He turned his head and stared at the figure wearing a bamboo hat. "Don't you think you need to give me a reasonable explanation? That Sunagakure child, if I'm not mistaken, should be Jinchuriki of One-Tail, right?"
Disguising Jinchuriki as Genin and sneaking into the ninja village of another country is tantamount to transporting a strategic-level destructive weapon directly into the opponent's hinterland. It is an act that can be regarded as a provocation to war.
Even though Third Hokage already knew the true intentions and identity of the person in front of him, he still needed this question, which was both a beating and an ultimatum.
However, "Kazekage"—or, in other words, Orochimaru under disguise—completely ignored Third Hokage's questioning. All of his attention was locked on the golden figure in the field, as if attracted by a magnet.
His heart was surging violently due to the fanatical discovery: 'Uzumaki Clan's huge vitality... Space-Time Ninjutsu's talent far exceeds the wave Fourth Hokage wind Minato... and the most critical secret of being able to perfectly control the power of Tailed Beast!
Although Gaara failed to force out the Kurama in Naruto, these revealed qualities alone were enough to make Orochimaru's thirst for knowledge and possessiveness reach its peak.
But it seemed... that gentle methods would not succeed. He coldly judged that he could only use force.
Orochimaru glanced at a figure disguised as Anbu in the auditorium from the corner of his eye. The appointed time has arrived, but the scheduled signal has not moved.
However, he did not think that Kabuto Yakushi would betray him. The only explanation, then, is... "Has the plan... been exposed?" he whispered almost silently.
At this moment, Third Hokage's voice sounded again, carrying fatigue and final advice. "...Orochimaru, it is indeed you. Stop it. If your target is not Naruto, we still have room for negotiation."
"Bang!"
As soon as the words fell, a sudden change occurred! A thick smoke bomb exploded between the seats of the two "shadows" without any warning! The pungent smoke swallowed their figures instantly!
"Boom——!!!"
Almost at the same time, huge explosions and the roar of shattered buildings came from different directions in the venue! The whole venue shook violently!
"What's wrong?!"
"What happened?!"
The audience suddenly fell into panic and screamed.
The next moment, as people looked up in horror, several giant snakes with huge bodies and scales shining with cold light were summoned out of thin air by Summoning Jutsu!
They twisted their horrifying bodies and entrenched themselves on the ceiling and walls of the venue, making a bloodcurdling hiss. Their cold vertical pupils looked down at the panic-stricken crowd below like ants.
