Konoha: The Female Ninja Fell Apart After the Diary Was Exposed

"Hahahaha... This is interesting."

From within the dust,

Naruto Uzumaki's laughter rang out.

Then,

a gust of wind swept through, clearing the dust.

In the ground

was a crater several meters wide.

All around it,

dense cracks spread like a spiderweb.

Just from the marks left on the ground,

anyone could imagine how powerful the Fourth Raikage's attack had been.

More astonishing still,

Naruto Uzumaki had taken that blow head-on and looked completely unharmed.

He rose slowly from the rubble and brushed the dust off his clothes.

"Not bad, Raikage."

"Since you made the first move, I'll play along."

A faint smile appeared on Naruto Uzumaki's face.

Then,

he walked toward A, one step at a time.

As he walked,

an immense, indescribable Chakra poured steadily from his body.

Gradually,

a golden Chakra Cloak enveloped him.

Kurama Mode!

"How... how is that possible?"

"That blow hit you. I know it did!"

A's expression changed for the first time as he watched Naruto Uzumaki's presence grow ever more overwhelming.

A moment ago,

his attack had definitely struck Naruto Uzumaki.

His opponent had raised an arm to block at the last instant,

but with A's speed and strength,

Naruto Uzumaki's body should have been battered beyond recognition.

How could he still look completely fine?

And

what was that Chakra Cloak around him?

Was it a power similar to his own Lightning Release Chakra Mode?

"That's the smell of that stinking fox..."

Shukaku muttered as Naruto Uzumaki passed him.

"Shukaku, I don't have time to play with you right now."

"You'd better keep quiet."

Hearing Shukaku, Naruto Uzumaki glanced up at him.

"Hmph!"

Shukaku lifted his head and snorted at Naruto Uzumaki's words.

But

to everyone's astonishment,

Shukaku offered no retort.

"Wait... the One-Tail actually did as he was told?"

"What's going on?
