The monster king who cleared the streets

Darui quietly asked, "Xi, did you see Naruto Uzumaki's movements clearly?"

Xi shook her head. "I can't see the details clearly, but I'm certain it's not Body Flicker Technique."

Darui looked at his other teammate. "Samui, how do you feel?"

Samui whispered, "Although it's a bit slow, it feels a lot like the Fifth Hokage's Extreme Speed Mode that the Fourth Raikage mentioned."

The mere mention of "Fifth Hokage" from Samui's lips felt like a mountain pressing down on the hearts of all the Cloud Ninja, the heavy weight of which silenced them all.

Darui, as expected of a prospective Fifth Raikage, quickly overcame his initial hesitation and cheerfully said, "Alright, we're Genin team; we won't be facing off against someone as terrifying as the Fifth Hokage."

"So Naruto Uzumaki must be the Fifth Hokage's disciple. Very well, let me experience firsthand the prowess of the Fifth Hokage, the strongest Ninja World."

"Today, I will defeat Naruto Uzumaki, but one day, I will challenge the Fifth Hokage himself."

"Cloud Ninja, forever striving upwards."

Darui pulled up his hood, concealing his gleaming eyes and his eager fighting spirit.

Upon hearing Darui's words, the Cloud Ninja quickly regained their composure and temporarily overcame their fear of the Fifth Hokage.

However, Samui was relatively stronger, was still a little worried, so she quietly asked, "Darui, can you keep up with Naruto Uzumaki's speed?"

Under the watchful eyes of Samui and Shi, Darui did not answer, but silently nodded.

Seeing their captain nod, the two outstanding Kumogakure finally Genin a sigh of relief.

Putting everything else aside, the speed that Naruto Uzumaki has shown is something the two of them simply cannot keep up with. If they were to meet during an exam, they would be swiftly and decisively killed within just a few rounds.

Fortunately, Darui is reliable.

After Deidara retreated back into the Iwagakure Ninja's ranks, his expression turned unusually grim.

The tall, flat-chested girl, Kurotsuchi, thought he was injured and rushed over to check on him, "Big Brother Deidara, are you alright?"

Deidara frowned and said, "How could nothing be wrong?"

"Naruto Uzumaki's speed and strength are too great. If he launches a surprise attack, I might not be able to react in time and be defeated."

"Actually, I do have some ways to deal with this. At worst, I can just fly up and make sure he can't touch me."

But what about you?

Kurotsuchi laughed heartily, "Big Brother Deidara, you underestimate me too much."

"If I encounter a monster like Naruto Uzumaki, I'll just surrender."

"How could he possibly have the heart to kill such a cute Beautiful Girl like me?"

Deidara: "----"

He suddenly realized that his silly little sister from his memories had changed; she had become so shameless without him even realizing it.

On the Sunagakure side, Temari and Kankuro were deathly pale.

They didn't even notice Naruto Uzumaki's movements; he appeared and moved suddenly, as if there was no intermediate process whatsoever.

Given their abilities, if they encountered this opponent in the actual combat phase of the exam, it would be a certain death sentence.

Temari gritted her teeth and cursed, "What is Konoha doing? How could Naruto Uzumaki be Genin? He, he, he's clearly already on par with Jonin!"

Kankuro opened and closed his mouth several times, but in the end he didn't say anything. He was even more guilty than his sister.

Temari follows the Wind Style Ninja style, which inherently grants her an advantage in agility.

Kankuro, being a Puppeteer, could outnumber Ninja of the same rank and switch between illusion and reality, gaining a significant advantage.

But when faced with a monster like Naruto Uzumaki, he only has one chance to die in place of a puppet, and even that depends on luck.

Even with just one chance, you're still doomed.

Suddenly, Baki's voice came from behind them. "Naruto Uzumaki just graduated from the Ninja Academy this year, so he's naturally Genin."

Baki returned, his face half-covered.

He turned to Gaara, who had also just arrived, and asked, "Gaara, are you confident you can handle Naruto Uzumaki?"

Gaara slightly raised his lifeless eyes and said without any emotion, "This definitely won't work. My ' Absolute Defense ' might not be able to stop him either."

"To defeat Naruto Uzumaki, we must unleash Shukaku's power."

Baki nodded. "Gaara, the Lord Kazekage has given instructions beforehand that you can break the seal and demonstrate the power of Sunagakure to the entire Ninja World when you deem it necessary."

Gaara showed no change whatsoever. After a long while of looking away, he said in a deep voice, "I will."

Baki nodded nonchalantly, then clapped his hands and said, "Our accommodation has been decided. Everyone, come with me after this is over."

"Once you're settled, you can start preparing for the Chunin Ninja Exams."

Seeing Naruto Uzumaki suppressing Uchiha Sasuke and Deidara, Momochi Zabuza's face turned extremely grim. He recalled the end of the last war, and the "Body Flicker Shisui" who was active on the East Blue battlefield.

Because Shisui Uchiha was so fast, many Mist Ninja were killed without even knowing how they died.

Zabuza once encountered Shisui Uchiha, but he survived by luck by avoiding a direct confrontation. From then on, he developed a huge psychological trauma regarding speed Ninja.

Even the usually confident Hozuki Suigetsu was dumbfounded.

He felt that if he were attacked by Naruto Uzumaki, he might be killed before he even realized what was happening, and wouldn't have time to use the [Hydrification Technique].

Suigetsu composed herself and asked, "Captain, do you think you can do it?"

Bai Weiwei nodded and said, "Although it's difficult, I think I can do it."

Suigetsu nodded frantically, "Great! If we encounter this monster during the exam, we'll leave it to the captain."

Bai smiled and nodded gently, agreeing, "Okay."

With Naruto Uzumaki's appearance, the standoff between the Four Great Ninja Villages was broken up by him alone, and everyone's attention was turned to him as they pondered how to deal with his high speed.

Even Kimimaro, who is now on the same side, is quietly pondering what tactics he should use.

Just as he was deep in thought with a serious expression, the pretty young girl Tenten, carrying a huge sword box on her back, slowly walked to his side.

Tenten waved her hand in front of Kimimaro's eyes. "You deadpan face, what are you thinking about?"

Rock Lee stared with his round eyes at the crowd on the street and exclaimed excitedly, "Wow, so many people, and so many experts!"

Wearing loose training clothes, Neji Hyuga said, "It should be the Ninja from the Four Great Ninja Villages who have arrived. It's normal that there are strong Genin among them."

Kimimaro's thoughts were interrupted, but instead of getting angry, he nervously turned around and took a step back, making sure he was at least 5 meters away from Tenten before he relaxed slightly.

His relationship with Tenten can only be described as that of familiar strangers. His identity can switch between "enemy" and "friend" at any time, depending on the girl's mood.

Once she identifies someone as an enemy and they happen to be within 5 meters, even Kimimaro would fall victim to a sudden and unexpected attack.

For example, a sudden bone spur could puncture his lung, leaving Kimimaro and collapsing while coughing up blood.

For example, the Kekkei Genkai illness Tsunade had managed to control suddenly flared up again, leaving Kimimaro weak for half a month.

After this happened several times, the cold-hearted and aloof Kaguya Kimimaro developed a conditioned reflex, immediately distancing herself from the seemingly sweet but actually terrifying girl.

Although Tenten has improved her control over the [Misfortune Halo] and no longer applies it indiscriminately to Konoha Ninja, Kimimaro still subconsciously avoids this dangerous distance.

If his Kekkei Genkai illness were to flare up again, his life would be in real danger.

After creating some distance, Kimimaro briefly explained the situation, which made Rock Lee's eyes light up.

He waved his hands excitedly. "Naruto-kun is so cool! This is what youth should be like!"

"I will work twice as hard, I will catch up with Naruto-kun's speed, and I will make everyone look at me with new eyes!"

Neji Hyuga shook his head and chuckled softly, preparing to say something, when suddenly he saw his captain's eyes.

Indeed, Tenten's eyes sparkled with excitement, as well as—mischievous slyness and amusement.

Neji Hyuga shivered and quickly grabbed Captain Tenten's arm.

He cried out, his face ashen, "Captain, this is Konoha! They are guests here to take the exam! You can't!"

Neji Hyuga's voice was so loud and his tone so panicked that it instantly attracted the attention of all the Ninja.

Just as Naruto Uzumaki recognized the person on the roof and before he could even figure out what was going on, Teuchi and greeted her, "Tenten- neechan, you're here—?"

Having figured out what Neji Hyuga was doing and seen the excitement in Tenten's eyes, Naruto Uzumaki activated Swift Style without hesitation and instantly disappeared from the street.

Uchiha Sasuke's eyesight was better than Naruto's. Before Naruto could react, he had already used the Body Flicker Technique and disappeared from the rooftop across the street.

He didn't even have time to warn Naruto to "run!"

Kimimaro and his Serpent -type Konoha squad retreated in unison to Tenten's back, then moved as far away as possible.

Only Neji Hyuga and Rock Lee did not run away. They were Tenten's teammates, and after more than a year of spending time together, the impression that they were one of her own had already solidified in the girl's mind.

Therefore, they don't need to worry about being favored by Misfortune.

The Konoha Ninja ' fierce reaction startled Darui and Deidara, who were initially confused. They instinctively circulated their Chakra, preparing for battle.

Deidara subconsciously reached into his Ninja Tools pouch and took out a lump of clay. The strange mouth in his palm swallowed the clay, chewed it a couple of times, and then somehow bit himself.

The sharp teeth even pierced through the skin of the palm, protruding directly and even getting stuck in the gaps between the hand bones, making it impossible to open the mouth.

Deidara's face drained of color, and he pulled out a Kunai with his left hand, slashing open his palm and breaking off the sharp tooth.

He opened his right hand and spat out the clay from his mouth as quickly as possible.

To ensure his own safety, Deidara's explosive clay wouldn't explode on its own. It only became explosive after being ingested and infused with Explosion Style Chakra.

During the process of infusing Explosion Style Chakra, a chewing motion must be maintained to ensure the uniformity of the clay quality through stirring, thus preventing the Explosion Style Chakra from becoming too concentrated and causing it to explode.

Therefore, when the mouth is unable to chew due to an accident, it's only a matter of time before the clay inside explodes.

Despite Deidara's speed and timely expulsion of most of the clay, he still couldn't completely prevent a small-scale self-destruction.

After a series of crackling sounds, Deidara's hand became riddled with holes, and his terrifying, ferocious mouth completely disappeared, leaving behind a horrifying hole that exposed the bare white bones.

On the other side, Darui had just squeezed cells to extract Chakra when he felt the muscles in his back, lower back, groin, and calves twitch simultaneously, then spasm and burst into excruciating pain.

He strained a muscle.

He was very familiar with the locations of these strains; they were the very places he had injured himself during the past few days of practicing Lightning Release Chakra Mode, due to his lack of familiarity with it.

However, these muscle injuries were caused by different reasons: some were from falls, some were tears, and some were strains. Moreover, the injuries did not occur within a single day, and some have already fully healed.

But just as he was skillfully squeezing out cells and drawing Chakra from his muscles, he suddenly strained his muscles.

This is definitely not a normal phenomenon.

At this moment, muffled groans came from behind him. Even the most careful and cautious Samui exclaimed in surprise. She had accidentally slipped while drawing her knife, causing the Blade to wobble and cut her left hand.

Samui a master knife user; I haven't heard of her cutting herself with her knife in the last five years.

Darui was startled, recalling the Konoha Ninja ' frantic retreat as if facing a formidable enemy, proving they were absolutely certain this would happen.

In other words, the fact that he and the Cloud Ninja were inexplicably injured, that a group of Iwagakure Ninja fell down, and that Golden-Haired even had a hole blown in his hand, were not accidents.

This is a special Secret Technique of a certain Konoha Ninja.

This, this is terrifying!

The tall, imposing Darui, who always had a lazy demeanor, opened his eyes wide and looked at the three Konoha Ninja who hadn't left the rooftop.

At the same time, Deidara also raised his head and looked at the same target.

Unfazed by the Tenten, Tenten clicked her tongue and said, "Tsk, Neji, why are you holding my hand? It's like you're under Misfortune Halo."

It erupted.

"Look, so many people are injured! I only meant to make them trip and fall, but now they're all hurt! It's all your fault!"

Neji Hyuga chuckled coldly, "Captain, you really have no self-awareness. Your control over [Misfortune Halo] is fine for dealing with a single person, but when facing three or more targets, do you even have the confidence to manage the situation?"

"Ask yourself honestly, if I hadn't stopped them, would they have killed someone?"

I feel guilty Tenten.
