Amid an endless series of sharp pops, countless clouds of smoke burst open on both sides of Naruto and behind him, stretching all the way to a hundred meters away!
Neji Hyuga, Tenten, and Rock Lee gradually froze.
"No way?"
Tenten stared in disbelief at the clouds of smoke slowly dissipating, her eyes wide. "He only graduated a few months ago! How could he possibly have so much Chakra?"
Neji gritted his teeth and fell silent. He'd just sneered at Naruto as an ordinary nobody, only for Naruto to prove him wrong in an instant.
With hundreds upon hundreds of Shadow Clones, even an ordinary Jonin probably couldn't boast such enormous reserves of Chakra!
All roads led to Rome, but Naruto Namikaze had been born right in Rome!
Neji struggled to accept reality.
Rock Lee, by contrast, was practically bursting with excitement. He looked at the nearly thousand Narutos revealed as the smoke cleared, clenched his fists, and said, "Naruto, so this is your true strength! Your talent is truly astonishing, but I have something to say: hard work can surpass genius! Now is the time to put my Nindo into practice! Prepare yourself, Naruto!!"
Boom!
Rock Lee stomped through the ground and charged fearlessly toward the real Naruto at the front of the Naruto army.
"I don't know what he's talking about, but it sounds impressive."
"Only we could pull off surrounding one guy with a thousand people."
"Get him! Beat him to a pulp!!"
The nearly thousand Narutos charged with a roar. In the crush of bodies, the real Naruto was swallowed by the crowd.
Rock Lee blinked, only to find that he'd lost track of the real Naruto.
In that case, I'll just beat every last one of you!
Left hook!
Bam!
Right hook!
Bam!
Up, down,
