Black Zetsu and Naruto stood face-to-face. Their special training was about to begin.
"While that villain controlled your body, he used powers you didn't possess. Now I need to test whether your body still remembers them."
Naruto looked bewildered. "Really? How come I don't feel anything at all?"
Black Zetsu said, "Because it has nothing to do with your consciousness. It may have remained in your body as instinct!"
Boom! As his words fell, five massive trees rose behind him!
Black Zetsu thrust out a black hand, and the middle tree slammed toward Naruto!!
"!" Startled, Naruto jumped backward to dodge the tree!
Before he could even steady himself... the four trees on either side crisscrossed through the air toward him. His escape routes were sealed off in every direction. There was no way to dodge!!
"Hey, hey!! Black Uncle, you're actually serious!!"
Black Zetsu put on a fierce front. That's right... this is the simplest, most brutal way to awaken instinct!!
"!!!"
Naruto raised his palm, and without thinking... a Rasengan formed. It instantly swelled to "Ultra-Big Ball" size, shredding all four trees at once!!!
Black Zetsu smiled. Exactly. Although Madara's consciousness performed those techniques, he did so through Naruto's body. Those physical sensations would be imprinted in this body, ready for Naruto to use!!
Naruto fell into a daze!!
Just now... was that a Rasengan?
No way, right?
He had never managed to use a Rasengan one-handed before, yet now he had done it instinctively. It had even been an Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan, more terrifying than the Big Ball Rasengan!
How could this happen...? That unreal feeling left Naruto utterly baffled, and even a little frightened!
While Naruto was distracted, a sweeping tree trunk knocked him to the ground with a smack.
"Ow... that really hurt."
Black Zetsu
