Finally Online

Inside the Sealing Space.

Naruto and the Nine-Tails stared at each other through the cage.

The Nine-Tails believed his guess was right, while Naruto let out a long sigh of relief.

With the Nine-Tails filling in the blanks himself, fooling him became much easier for Naruto.

Actually, Naruto could have said that he had traveled here from another world, and the reason he knew so much was that this world was an anime in his own.

But Naruto couldn't do that.

It was better not to say anything that would completely shatter someone's understanding of the world, even if that someone was just a fox.

"You guessed right. I really am from the future..."

"So... as long as you finish watching Naruto, you'll know how the future unfolds too!"

The Nine-Tails nodded. Now that he understood Naruto's situation, he stopped dwelling on it and continued watching Naruto. He wanted to see what exactly happened in the future.

He also wanted to know whether the person that old Sage of Six Paths had spoken of would appear in the future!

After clearing up the Nine-Tails' confusion, Naruto turned to Wolffy.

"Wolffy, Naruto can help you fully understand this world. Only once you understand it can you invent a Dimensional Shuttle that can break out of this Sealing Space, right?"

Wolffy nodded, feeling that Naruto made a lot of sense.

With the wolf and fox taken care of, Naruto was ready to leave the Sealing Space.

Seeing that Naruto was about to leave, Wolffy immediately stopped him.

"Wait!"

As he spoke, Wolffy went around behind the Dimensional Shuttle and removed something resembling a router from the machine. He said to Naruto, "This is the Signal Receiving Device that can connect to other dimensions!"

At Wolffy's words, Naruto's face lit up with excitement.

"Holy shit! Doesn't that mean... League of Legends... Rainbow Six... CSGO... Overwatch... DNF... I can play all those games that need an internet connection now?!"

Although Naruto was a little annoyed that Wolffy had only brought out the router now, the thought of playing online games made him happy again.

Now he was even more glad that Wolffy hadn't left using the Dimensional Shuttle!

Although Wolffy had no idea what any of the games Naruto mentioned were, he still nodded.

"Just install this router here, and you'll be able to get online on your side!"

It worked just like the earlier game transfers; the signal could be transmitted too.

Once the router was installed, Naruto couldn't wait to leave the Sealing Space.

Back in the real world.

Naruto looked at the bottom-right corner of his computer screen and found that there was indeed an internet connection icon.

"Hahahaha... I've finally escaped the life of a shut-in without internet!"

Bluebird, who was napping in a tree outside the window, suddenly heard Naruto's laughter and snapped her eyes open.

"What's that kid up to now..."

As she spoke, Bluebird checked the sky and realized it was lunchtime.

"I'll bring the kid two portions of grilled fish today..."

With that, Bluebird vanished from the spot.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the past month, everyone in the Hokage's office building had noticed that, for some unknown reason, Lord Hokage was growing thinner by the day.

Information about a Blood Release Ninja who had infiltrated Konoha was also circulating among the ninja.

Within a month, the Blood Release Ninja had ambushed the Third Hokage four times, escaping unscathed every time.

Whenever the Anbu protecting Lord Hokage reached the scene, all they found was blood on the floor and a somewhat weakened Lord Hokage.

Because of this elusive Blood Release Ninja, even Danzo hadn't enjoyed a good night's sleep for an entire month.

Danzo had noticed Hiruzen Sarutobi growing thinner too, but... he couldn't seize the position of Hokage right now.

He had to find the Blood Release Ninja first. If he became Hokage now, the Blood Release Ninja would definitely target him instead.

But so far, there hadn't been a single lead on the Blood Release Ninja.

Danzo had even dispatched his Root to protect Hiruzen Sarutobi in secret... but as long as someone was nearby, the Blood Release Ninja wouldn't appear.

Every time the Blood Release Ninja appeared, Hiruzen Sarutobi was alone, making the ninja even harder to catch!

Elsewhere.

A month was enough for the Nine-Tails and Wolffy to finish watching all of Naruto.

After finishing Naruto, the Nine-Tails also learned... that Naruto was the person the old Sage of Six Paths had foretold.

So... the Nine-Tails decided to help Naruto.

Of course... the prickly Nine-Tails would never say that aloud, at least not until some crucial moment...

Like when they faced a powerful enemy.

As for Wolffy, he didn't have nearly as much on his mind after finishing Naruto.

He had only one thought: Wait.

Wait for Naruto to grow up and become strong enough to release him from the Sealing Space.

As long as his real body could leave this Sealing Space, he could return to Green-Green Grassland...

As for the timing, that wasn't a problem at all. Ever heard of a time machine?

Naruto had enjoyed this past month the most.

Because... he had internet now.

The world he was connected to was probably the Parallel World of his previous life.

This world's internet had the games Naruto had played in his previous life... but when he tried logging into his old accounts, they didn't exist.

And... Naruto couldn't contact his classmates or friends from his previous life through the internet either.

Only after Wolffy explained it did Naruto learn that this was most likely a parallel world's internet.

But none of that mattered. He hadn't had many friends in his previous life anyway. As long as he could play games online, that was enough!

Over the past month, Naruto had either been absorbed in League of Legends or frantically leveling up in DNF.

Seeing how engrossed Naruto was in gaming, even Wolffy and the Nine-Tails joined in.

As for how the Nine-Tails played games? With a clone, of course.

The Nine-Tails let some of his chakra seep through a crack in the Sealing, then formed it into a miniature Nine-Tails.

This miniature Nine-Tails could not only play games, but also run freely across the grassland.

"Kurama, Wolffy, can't you two play a different Hero?"

"One of you plays the Nine-Tailed Fox every day, and the other plays the werewolf!"

Naruto was speechless at these two.

No matter what their teammates or opponents picked, the two of them insisted on the fox and the werewolf.

One believed foxes were the strongest, while the other believed wolves were the strongest.

And so Naruto, who had climbed all the way to Gold playing solo, dropped straight to Silver V after playing with them. One more loss would put him in Bronze...

Just as Naruto was about to try persuading them to switch Heroes again, a cough interrupted him.

Naruto turned toward the cough and saw that a figure had actually appeared inside the pitch-black cage, which had shown no signs of activity for over a month.
