Stuffed and satisfied.

Naruto suddenly recalled Konohamaru, who had been beaten until his face was black and blue.

Konohamaru was decent enough.

He had sworn to die rather than sell him out.

This wave wasn't a loss.

However, after this group of little friends happily headed back with their "instruction manuals."

If their luck was poor and they were discovered by their parents.

What kind of fate awaited them tomorrow...

He could already roughly predict it.

It was just... whether they would sell him out halfway through.

That was hard to say.

To prevent that from happening.

Naruto felt it was absolutely necessary to give them a preventative shot first.

"Ahem..."

Naruto gave two light, dry coughs.

The expression on his face suddenly turned serious.

The gazes of the group shifted away from the books in their hands.

They all landed on Naruto one after another.

"These cultivation books were not easy for me to get my hands on."

"You can open the table of contents and introduction; this is the personal biography of one of our village's Sannin, Jiraiya."

"It records his insights and mastery of ninjutsu."

"I hope that if you are discovered by your parents after you go back, you won't say that I was the one who gave them to you."

The group was stunned.

Why would he say that?

What was going on?

Isn't this just a simple teaching book?

Choji Akimichi raised his chubby little hand and asked curiously, "Naruto, can't this book be read while accompanied by our parents?"

"I was thinking that if I ran into parts I didn't understand halfway through, I could just ask them."

Good fellow...

I just love children who ask questions.

Children who like to ask questions usually don't have bad luck.

Choji Akimichi's doubt.

Was also the concern of the other little friends present.

Naruto couldn't help but admire them in his heart.

Theoretically speaking, this kind of book should indeed be read while accompanied by parents.

In a flash, he spoke directly.

"That's right, it is true that reading this book while accompanied by parents will double the cultivation effect."

Everyone's eyes lit up.

But then Naruto changed the subject, "But... if you do that, you'll likely have to suffer some physical pain."

"Although this book is a superior method for public cultivation, you are still young and might not be able to handle it."

"After all, the content inside is very deep, and there are many virtual, misleading words; I'm afraid you won't be able to grasp it all at once!"

Still young???

Can't handle it???

The few of them looked at each other.

Then they looked at Naruto.

Big brother, we are the same age, okay?

Why can you master it perfectly, but we can't??

Do we look like idiots to you?

Is our comprehension not as good as yours?

I refuse to accept this!

Kiba Inuzuka refused to give up and asked, "What if we accidentally get caught by our parents?"

"Or what if we read this book while our parents are accompanying us?"

Naruto shrugged, "I already said it before, you'll just suffer a bit of physical pain."

"Believe it or not, it's up to you. I have things to do, so I'm leaving."

After Naruto left.

Choji Akimichi rubbed his round belly.

"Is what Naruto said true?"

Kiba Inuzuka flipped through the book in his hands and replied casually, "Why don't you go back and try it to find out?"

Rock Lee read the book intently, his thick eyebrows furrowing slightly, his face full of surprise.

"So this is how ninja mental cultivation can be practiced?"

Shikamaru glanced at the book indifferently.

Although he knew there might be something fishy inside.

He still couldn't help but open it to take a look.

"Don't worry about so much, we just need to listen to what Naruto says."

"Then if we get caught by our parents, should we sell Naruto out?"

Kiba Inuzuka's words drew a wave of contempt from the other friends.

"I didn't expect you to be that kind of person, actually betraying a friend?"

"I really misjudged you."

"I didn't, I wasn't, listen to my explanation!"

"No need to panic, even if we get caught, we'll just have to take the beating ourselves."

"I don't know if I can handle it. My father hits really hard. He's already gone through several ninja belts just from hitting me."

"...You're truly a beast. The feather duster my mom uses is almost broken too. Last time she went shopping, she bought over a dozen at once."

"...Why buy so many?"

"It's all to hit me, she's afraid she'll run out when she needs them..."

"..."

The group felt a chill.

Thinking about the unbearable scenes of domestic violence where they couldn't fight back.

Everything said was filled with blood and tears.

"Eh... did the wife get out of class too?"

"Looks like it's time to head out."

As for the remaining biographies.

Naruto controlled his Puppet Shadow Clone to distribute them randomly to some classmates with forgettable faces.

Anyway, as long as the task was completed, it was fine.

He had serious business to attend to now.

A moment ago, one of his shadow clones saw Hinata strolling down the street.

There were no guards following her.

The timing was perfect!

The Nine-Tails, transformed into a plush toy, lifted its eyelids, feeling slightly surprised.

"Eh... Master, are you going out?"

"That's right, you just stay home and watch the house."

Naruto laughed.

Why would he bring a third wheel when going out on a date?

The Nine-Tails looked helpless, complaining wildly in its heart.

Aren't you afraid I'll run away?

You are the first jinchuriki in history to dare to let a Tailed Beast watch the house.

It would be one thing if it were guarding some important location.

But a place like this where birds don't even lay eggs.

Not to mention whether other elite ninjas would even come over.

After all, there is nothing in here worth them making such a big fuss over.

Items to be searched.

Aside from daily necessities, it is utterly useless.

Even a thief would likely shed tears upon seeing it.

And give it a wide berth, choosing to take the long way around whenever possible!

In short.

I, Kurama, cannot even be bothered to glance at it.

There is nothing important here that needs protecting.

Right?

Leaving a Tailed Beast with formidable strength at home just to gather dust?!

I, the Nine-Tails, the cream of the crop among Tailed Beasts!

I absolutely will not help watch the house!

This is just too damn bullying to a fox.

Even though it is true that I call you master.

Are you really treating me like a guard dog?

This is simply bullying a fox too far!

Don't even dream of making me watch the house.

"Even if I were to jump from here and fall to my death, I would never help you watch the house!

Give up on that thought entirely!"

The Nine-Tails thought indignantly to itself.

If word of this were to get out later.

Would it have any face left?

Especially if the other Tailed Beasts heard about it.

The legendary Nine-Tails Demon Fox, an existence nearing the ceiling of Tailed Beast combat power.

Actually acting as a guard fox for a Genin in Konoha.

How suffocating!!!
