Seemingly sensing Asuramaru's meaning, she immediately replied with a feigned innocent smile, "Alright, then I'll trouble you Mizuki- sensei, to spend the money."
The two of them left the Ninja Academy together.
Not far away.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze pierced through the crowd, taking in everything, before turning to Iruka beside him.
"Come with me to Iruka, I have something to tell you..."
On the other side...
Inside Ichiraku Ramen on the street.
Naruto and Mizuki sat down, and Mizuki said with a smile, "Eat whatever you like today."
Naruto simply smiled calmly and said, "That's great, Teuchi, just give me a bowl of chashu ramen."
Mizuki also ordered a bowl of ramen, then looked at Naruto beside him and suddenly asked, "Naruto, why are you training so hard?"
To this question, Naruto's answer has always been the same, "I want to become and surpass all the previous Naruto, and personally change this cruel world!"
Upon hearing this, a hidden disdain and sarcasm flashed in Mizuki's eyes.
Just you?
That's a joke!
However, he outwardly feigned approval and reminded her, "That's a great ideal, but you're not up to the task with your current abilities."
"You should know that all the Naruto of the past have mastered a large number of powerful ninjutsu, but unfortunately you only have the most basic Transformation Technique as a ninja."
Although Naruto was young, under Asuramaru's tutelage, he was exceptionally quick-witted and immediately realized that the other man was guiding him.
He then asked out of curiosity.
"Then what should I do to obtain such a powerful ninjutsu?"
Chapter 236 Are you serious?
At this moment, Naruto appeared so innocent and foolish in Mizuki's eyes, which made him sneer inwardly.
So what if you're a genius?
They're still completely under my thumb!
He smiled knowingly.
"Then I'll tell you a secret."
As he spoke, he leaned down and whispered, "In the Naruto's office, there is a Scroll of Seals, which is said to contain powerful forbidden techniques sealed by the First Naruto himself."
If you can learn the forbidden techniques within, you might truly become Naruto... and there's also a training ground unknown to anyone..."
The words had barely left his mouth.
Uncle Ichiraku also placed the ramen in front of the two of them, and said with a smile.
"Eat it while it's hot."
Amidst the other person's kind smile, Naruto picked up his chopsticks and began eating ramen, but inwardly he was thinking, "Is Mizuki- sensei planning to use me to steal the so-called Scroll of Seals?"
After a brief moment of thought, I had a general understanding of the situation.
But it was at this very moment...
Asuramaru's voice echoed in her mind, "If you steal the Scroll of Seals tonight, you definitely won't be punished."
That confident tone.
Although Naruto trusted Asuramaru, he still asked with some curiosity, "Can you tell me why?"
In response to this curious question, Asuramaru explained, "Do you think Mizuki's every move in Konoha can escape the Naruto's notice?"
Since the Naruto didn't stop it, that means he agreed.
"Is that so?"
Naruto thought about it for a moment and realized that it actually made a lot of sense, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to look at this so-called Scroll of Seals.
After eating ramen, the two said goodbye.
It was only dusk at this time.
Naruto sat on a park bench until the sun set and night fell.
Only then did he get up and leave.
Hokage Tower.
It was late at night, and the building was pitch black.
However, according to Asuramaru's perception, several people were hiding in the shadows.
It's obvious without even thinking that these are all ANBU.
However, when they saw Naruto, they did not stop him, but instead let him sneak into the Hokage Tower.
Walking inside the Hokage Tower, Naruto cautiously looked around and made his way to the Naruto's office on the top floor as quickly as possible.
Pushing open the door and entering, his gaze quickly locked onto the Scroll of Seals. He immediately took it and returned the way he came, heading straight for the dark forest.
However, Asuramaru, hidden within the sword, could clearly sense that Hiruzen Sarutobi was observing Naruto's every move through his Telescope Technique.
Hidden in the shadows, Hiruzen Sarutobi watched Naruto gradually disappear and couldn't help but take a puff of his pipe.
At the same time.
The news of the stolen Scroll of Seals was quickly discovered.
Meanwhile, Mizuki arrived at Iruka's house, knocked on his door, and shouted, "Iruka- sensei, get up quickly, something terrible has happened!"
Upon hearing this, Iruka quickly came out of the house. "What happened?"
Mizuki a popular online forum) expressed extreme urgency regarding this.
"Quickly gather at the Naruto's place! It seems Naruto has stolen the Scroll of Seals!"
"What?! The Scroll of Seals!"
Iruka was startled and quickly followed him away.
After everyone gathered in front of the Hokage Tower.
Only then did Hiruzen Sarutobi finally step forward and give the order.
"The Scroll of Seals has been stolen, and it seems to be the work of Naruto Uzumaki. I'd like to ask you all to bring it back!"
The words were finished.
"Yes!"
Everyone present left immediately, heading off to different places to search for Naruto.
But among these people, let alone the ANBU.
There aren't even Jonin!
At the same time.
In the woods, Naruto sat cross-legged on the ground.
With some anticipation, he opened the Scroll of Seals, only to find on the first page: "A-Class Ninjutsu: Multiple Shadow Clone"
Look at the introduction.
It can divide chakra into numerous Shadow Clones, which can be used for combat and training. Upon death, the Shadow Clone, along with their memories, are returned to the original body!
"Is it really as worthy of being called the Scroll of Seals?"
Looking at the hand seals above, with the added benefit of Asuramaru's " twice the result with half the effort" buff, there's absolutely no difficulty in cultivating it.
Once you've learned it, immediately turn to the next page.
S-Class ninjutsu "Flying Thunder God Technique"
This technique also has an introduction.
Space-time ninjutsu!
After training, you can leave Flying Thunder God mark on objects. Activating the Flying Thunder God will teleport you to the vicinity of the mark!
The corresponding cultivation methods are then provided below.
"Space-time ninjutsu?"
This was the first time Naruto had ever heard of this kind of ninjutsu, but whatever, he'd just learn it.
However, the Asuramaru inside his body was stunned.
He recognized it at a glance—it was the real Flying Thunder God!
I was prepared for the real thing to be the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, but I didn't expect Hiruzen Sarutobi to actually do it?!
The Flying Thunder God isn't easy to learn, but fortunately Naruto memorized it all and asked himself questions in his mind.
"Asuramaru, could you help me memorize the training methods for these techniques?"
"Certainly."
Asuramaru also answered decisively.
With this guarantee, Naruto turned the page.
The next technique was clearly written.
S-Class ninjutsu "Impure World Reincarnation"
To summon the dead back to the world of the living!
Naruto was taken aback at first, but then he saw the requirements below and gave a wry smile before accepting it.
Although I really want to see my parents.
But I think I'll pass. I'm already quite content with Asuramaru for my family...
However, Asuramaru, who was in the sword, immediately recorded it. Whether he would need it or not was another matter; he simply needed this ability.
However, just as Naruto was about to turn to the next page, he seemed to notice something.
He saw a figure walking towards him, panting heavily. It was Iruka, who immediately launched into a tirade.
"Naruto, you really made me search high and low! How could you steal the Scroll of Seals?!"
Naruto replied with a smile.
"It was Professor Mizuki who told me to do it this way; he told me about the scroll and this place..."
Just shift the blame directly; the key is sincerity!
Even the Asuramaru inside his body couldn't help but nod slightly.
"As expected of my teacher!"
Outside, Iruka's expression froze upon hearing this. "It's Mizuki? Could it be that he intends to...?"
And it was at this moment.
Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from behind Iruka, and a large number of kunai followed.
Realizing this, Iruka had no time to dodge and could only try his best to push Naruto away, but Naruto grabbed his arm and pulled him to his side.
Hidden in the shadows, Mizuki was stunned for a moment, but there was no turning back now. He immediately leaped onto the branches of the thick tree in front of the two.
Looking down at the two of them from his elevated position, he said...
"You actually dodged it? But it doesn't matter. The two of you are no match for me. Hand over the scroll now, and I'll spare your lives!"
