Danzo Has a Screw Loose

The masked figure entered the villa, glanced at the two cups of tea on the coffee table, paused for two seconds, seemingly surprised that the other party already knew of his arrival and had even poured the tea.

However, he still respectfully said, "My lord, this is a scroll sent by Lord Danzo."

"Um."

Naruto took the scroll and looked at it. When he saw the words "Inner Eight Gates" on the scroll, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

In a good mood, he pointed to the seat opposite him and said, "Sit down and have a cup of tea, Sai."

"What!"

Sai was stunned, looking at Naruto in disbelief, "You know me?"

"So you could say that the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal has been removed, right? Why didn't you leave Danzo?" Naruto asked lazily.

"You even know that?"

Sai looked at Naruto with surprise, but remembering Danzo's earnest instructions, he quickly and respectfully replied.

"Because I didn't know where to go, and our seal was suddenly broken, everyone thought something had happened to Danzo, but he quickly returned and announced..."

"He announced that he had made too many mistakes in the past, so he lifted the seal and gave us freedom, hoping that we could continue to protect Konoha. This kind of magnanimity made many people stay, and of course, there were also people like me who didn't know where to go."

Sai paused for two seconds before speaking again, "We don't know how to communicate, we have no family, and we don't know where to go except to follow Danzo."

"I see."

Naruto shook his head and said, "The more you experience life outside, the more you'll learn."

"I understand, I will try to interact with the outside world more."

Sai nodded, though he didn't understand why Naruto was telling him all this, he still nodded.

[Experience Points +3]

The sound of Experience Points made Naruto smile. He then started chatting with Sai, and after absorbing all the Experience Points, he waved his hand and said, "Go."

"Yes, sir."

Sai bowed slightly, then vanished, leaving Naruto alone to ponder.

He thought of Sai's drawing ability, which interested him because he himself enjoyed drawing. If he could turn his drawings into Ninjutsu, it would be a very good option.

"Is Sai's drawing ability Kekkei Genkai or a secret technique? I can't quite remember. I'll hand it over to Danzo later. Having someone like him is quite convenient."

Naruto murmured to himself, opening the scroll to study the Eight Gates.

He originally thought the Eight Gates would be very difficult, but after reading it once, he found that it was simpler than he had imagined.

The biggest challenge lies in physical strength and the potential for injury, which is why the Eight Gates is considered Forbidden Jutsu.

But.

Naruto's physique is incredibly strong, coupled with the Uzumaki Clan's self-healing ability, the Nine-Tails' healing speed, and the Senzu Bean, so Naruto has no worries about this at all.

So he began Hand Seals.

Multi-Shadow Clone Technique!

Bang bang bang bang!

Several Shadow Clone Technique appeared in the living room, standing quietly around, awaiting Naruto's instructions.

"Come here, everyone, let's practice the Eight Gates together. I want to master the Eight Gates as quickly as possible."

"Yes!"

The Shadow Clone Technique gathered around, each diligently beginning their training. Naruto's main body was no exception, constantly attempting the Eight Gates and learning without any reservations.

She even forgot about the breakfast she was making, leaving it in the kitchen unattended.

Fortunately Hinata up and finished washing up, and managed to finish the breakfast she was only halfway through making, so she was able to enjoy a delicious breakfast.

Over the next two days.

Naruto sought opportunities to gain Experience Points while simultaneously learning the Eight Gates.

With his Shadow Clone Technique, his learning speed was unparalleled; he even opened the Seventh Gate the Eight Gates, though he hadn't opened the Eighth Gate.

Because the Chakra contained within his body is increasing, the Seventh Gate is already terrifying, and if the Eighth Gate is opened, the result is unimaginable.

So Naruto decided to wait a while and go outside the village to find a suitable place to open the Eighth Gate.

On the other side.

Training Ground 3.

Might Guy looked at Danzo in front of him, and thinking about how Danzo around him for the past two days, chattering incessantly like a fly, he felt a splitting headache.

Remembering that Danzo had already given Naruto the method for training the Eight Gates, Might Guy nodded helplessly and said, "Alright, alright, I promise to guide Naruto."

"Phew, that's great. You must teach him gently and kindly. Naruto should have memorized the Eight Gates now. Next is opening the Eight Gates. I hope you will teach him a lot."

Danzo smiled and kept talking, repeatedly instructing Might Guy to be polite and kind.

"Alright, but while the Eight Gates are easy to learn, opening them is not easy. It requires a very high level of physical strength, as can be seen from Rock Lee," Might Guy said.

"It's alright, it's alright. Naruto's physique is still very strong. Opening the first six gates will definitely not be a problem," Danzo said confidently.

"Really?" Might Guy, somewhat incredulous.

This sixth gate is no joke. Even after years of desperate cultivation, Rock Lee couldn't open it. At most, he could only open the Five Gates, and even then, he almost became useless.

Danzo's immediate statement that Naruto could open the first six gates was clearly the opinion of an outsider, showing a complete lack of understanding.

Certainly.

Might Guy didn't say much, but nodded and said, "I will verify it myself. Since I promised you, I will teach him wholeheartedly."

"Great! Haha, don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly. Here, take this."

Danzo laughed heartily. He now had far fewer subordinates, but plenty of money.

So he took a bulging pink envelope from his pocket and handed it to Might Guy, saying, "Remember, be kind to him, and make sure you teach him."

Danzo finished speaking, he left happily, leaving Might Guy standing there dumbfounded.

Because the amount of money in that envelope was truly substantial, an amount that even Might Guy found enticing.

But.

Might Guy stared at Danzo's Danzo figure with a puzzled look, feeling uneasy. He couldn't understand why Danzo had done this; had he truly changed his ways?

"I feel like Danzo's got a screw loose, but last night Kakashi personally asked me to teach Naruto the Eight Gates, and I promised Kakashi I couldn't go back on my word. Now, having an extra source of income is even better."

Might Guy happily put away the envelope and was about to leave when Neji and Tenten walked over.

"Teacher Kai, did you just receive a pink envelope?" Tenten asked in a strange tone.

"Yes, is there a problem?" Might Guy asked, puzzled.

"Of course there's a problem."

"That's strange," Tenten said again.

"Pink envelopes are only used for love letters, didn't you know?"

Gaa!

Upon hearing this, Might Guy froze on the spot, the image of Danzo's wrinkled old face Danzo through his mind, and he instantly shivered.
