Naruto, What's the point of being Hokage without you!

"What if I train that technique?"

"The powerful ninjutsu that I, Naruto, created myself..."

"The Sexy Technique!"

[The Sexy Technique itself is a variant of the Transformation Technique, so the answer is...]

[Yes.]

Naruto was overjoyed, grinning as he said, "Then the show is about to begin!"

"I've only secretly experimented with this move; I've never actually practiced it properly before..."

Naruto immediately imagined the scenes he had "researched" in his mind—which were really just picture books he'd seen at the bookstore—quickly refined his chakra, applied it to his entire body, and formed the hand seals in one breath.

"Transform!"

In an instant, a woman with a flawless figure descended into the room, accompanied by wisps of white smoke.

But Naruto wasn't satisfied.

"Hmm, it seems there are still many flaws..."

"Transform!"

This time, he began to practice diligently and with great initiative...

In truth, although Naruto was very skilled at the Sexy Technique, he had used this move to take down quite a few people in the original story.

Including the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, Jiraiya, Ebisu, and even...

The final boss, the Progenitor of Chakra, Kaguya Otsutsuki!

Actually, he didn't really understand the true meaning behind it.

He had even complained many times about why adults would fall for such a boring move.

In the eyes of others, the Sexy Technique might be low-class and lewd.

But to Naruto, it was a truly practical ninjutsu.

"Transform—"

"Transform!"

Naruto practiced tirelessly; this was the first ninjutsu he had truly poured his heart into and developed himself, and it was also the one training session that required no supervision.

The system remained cold and mechanical.

[Host has successfully completed 100 Transformation Techniques. Transformation Technique proficiency +3, current proficiency 64 points!]

[Host has successfully completed 100 Sexy Techniques. Sexy Technique proficiency +3, current proficiency 58 points!]

Clearly, the system distinguished the difference between them very well.

In the mental space, Kurama watched Naruto's every move, unable to help but be dumbfounded.

He twitched his ears and shook his head.

"Hmph, a boring brat creating a boring ninjutsu..."

Such a move, of course, had absolutely no effect on the Nine-Tailed Fox.

The night was deep.

Konoha was silent.

Inside the Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, having finished a day of tedious work, rubbed his sore eyes and let out a wry smile, shaking his head.

He lit his pipe and began to read the report on Naruto submitted by the Anbu.

"Hmm?"

"That guy Naruto, is he actually still keeping at it?"

"Could it be that this time he is really..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled a large cloud of smoke, his aged brows furrowing slightly.

"Heh, that would be a good thing, then..."

Thinking of this, he looked toward the Crystal Ball on the table.

"I might as well take a look and see if that kid is still working hard..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen picked it up casually, formed hand seals with both hands, and activated his secret technique.

"Telescope Technique."

As he spread his hands, the mist on the Crystal Ball gradually dissipated, and the scene of Naruto's room soon appeared.

"Transform—"

A crisp voice rang out.

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a stir in his heart.

"Is he actually still training?"

"It's already nearly midnight..."

"This kid really has turned over a new leaf..."

"Is he practicing the Transformation Technique?"

In the next instant.

Naruto formed hand seals, and amidst a swirl of white smoke, a graceful, curvaceous beauty with a devilish figure appeared before Sarutobi Hiruzen, posing and flirting.

She even let out a charming, alluring hum and blew a kiss toward Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was watching through his Crystal Ball...

"Mmhmm..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was struck as if by lightning; his old face flushed red, and his body trembled violently!

"Th-this is..."

Pfft—

Two streams of nosebleed erupted instantly!

He hurriedly covered his nose, his body involuntarily toppling backward.

"Hokage, Lord Hokage!"

"What happened?!"

Several dutiful Anbu members, hearing the Hokage's exclamation, descended from the sky in a flash and appeared, asking with extreme concern.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's old face was beet red. "N-nothing..."

"Don't come any closer!"

"...Lord Hokage, is it an enemy attack?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen hurriedly wiped away the nosebleed and stood up again, feigning composure.

"Ahem, no..."

"I was just too exhausted, and with the dry weather, I felt a bit dizzy and fell over..."

The Anbu members were immediately filled with worry.

"Lord Hokage, please take care of your health!"

"Ahem... I, I know..."

He hurriedly covered the Crystal Ball, not daring to let anyone else see the scene inside.

"Damn it, what kind of indecent ninjutsu has this brat Naruto come up with!"

"Th-this level of technique won't work on me..."

"P-probably..."

Naruto, still training hard, had no idea that at such a young age, without even putting in much effort, he had already taken down a true Kage-level powerhouse from afar!

Such a feat could be called unprecedented...

The Ninja Academy examinations generally consist of three subjects.

Academic studies, basic ninjutsu, and ninja sparring.

There is no need to elaborate on academic studies.

The basic ninjutsu examination is randomized every year.

Naruto himself had complained that he hadn't passed the graduation exam for several consecutive years because every time, he happened to be tested on the Clone Technique, which he was least skilled at.

The Ninja Academy system involves enrolling at age 6 and graduating at age 12.

Of course, this is the norm during peacetime.

In special times, there is no lack of "freaks" like Kakashi Hatake and Itachi Uchiha.

Kakashi Hatake graduated at 5, became a Chunin at 6, and a Jonin at 12.

Itachi Uchiha enrolled at 6, graduated at 7, and joined the Anbu at 11.

But in reality, even in times of peace, it is theoretically possible to graduate early.

For instance, it was explicitly stated in the original work that Sasuke Uchiha's performance in his first year of enrollment was already sufficient for graduation.

It was simply his own choice to continue training and studying.

As for the current Naruto, even if he draws the Clone Technique during the exam again, he can at least guarantee a passing grade.

But if he wants to rank in the top ten of his class, that is clearly far from enough.

If luck is on his side and he draws the Transformation Technique, which he is relatively most proficient in, he might just be able to get a high score.

This is also a major reason why Naruto is more willing to take the initiative to practice the Transformation Technique.

As expected...

After just the first training session, Naruto's Clone Technique and Sexy Technique improved by a significant margin.

The proficiency increased by a full 8 points, reaching 69 and 63 respectively!

This is where everyone's talent leans!

One must know that he had practiced the Clone Technique with his life on the line, and even today, he had barely managed a passing grade...

Finally finishing his training, Naruto let out a huge yawn and quickly drifted off into dreamland amidst the warning sounds of the system.

Naruto is now so well-trained by the system that he can fall asleep the moment it is bedtime...

Without a single distracting thought.

Naruto has gradually grown accustomed to the existence of System Bro.

He has even developed a tiny bit of reliance on it...

This is the legendary Stockholm Syndrome!

Naruto's personality truly requires someone to push him forward in this manner.

However...

Naruto is still rejoicing too early...

He has no idea how terrifying the system truly is...

In his dreams.

Naruto seems to be standing on the roof of the Hokage Building, wearing the Hokage Haori and the Hokage Hat, looking aggressive and majestic, standing with his arms crossed as he faces the ninjas and civilians of the entire Konoha.
