Also on their journey, Hongshi and Hinata chose to take a forest path...
Because Hongshi wants to guide Hinata her training.
Hongshi and Hinata sat facing each other. In the original work, Hinata's talent in Ninjutsu training was not outstanding, but Hongshi discovered that Hinata in collecting Senjutsu energy was even higher than Naruto's.
The two entered a state of stillness, so much so that the birds around them were unaware of their presence. A magpie landed on Hinata's head, and seemingly feeling the warmth, it began to rest there.
Similarly, a small bird slowly landed on the Hongshi.
"Snap!!"
The little bird had barely stepped onto the Hongshi's head when it broke its leg. "Chirp, chirp, you idiot, you idiot, you idiot!"
Then he pooped something white on his head.
Hongshi: "(°ー°), This world is finished, let's blow it up."
The Lord God: "Alright, alright."
Hongshi sensed Natural Energy flowing into Hinata's body at an extremely slow pace. "Such training results in just three hours! Given time, she'll definitely be able to instantly enter Sage Mode. Hmm, which Senjutsu should I have her learn? Mount Myōboku? Shikkotsu Forest? Ryūchi Cave? Or should I develop my own Senjutsu system? Hmm, that's a good idea."
The bird on Hinata's head flew away, and she herself awoke from her meditation. " Hongshi-kun, I... I've collected a little Chakra."
Hongshi silently touched his head and wiped away the blob of white. "Hmm, very good. Now, use the Chakra you've collected to unleash a Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm and see how it goes."
"Good!"
Hinata faced a giant rock, closed her eyes, and slowly channeled the small amount of Senjutsu Chakra she had just collected. " Gentle Fist: Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm!"
"Boom!"
A boulder as tall as a person was shattered by a single palm strike, even Hinata herself was shocked. "Red... Hongshi-kun, what happened!"
"Clap clap clap." Hongshi clapped his hands. "Congratulations, you've already mastered the basics of using Senjutsu Chakra."
Hinata blushed and said, " Hongshi-kun, thank you! This brings me a little closer to Naruto-kun."
Hongshi: "(°ー°), How could I be so shameless?"
The Lord God: "That's right, you're just a jerk."
Hongshi said to Hinata, "Alright, Hinata, that's enough for today's training. Let's continue on our way; we should catch up with Naruto soon."
The two continued along the path, while Hongshi explained Chakra conversion techniques and how to use the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack.
Women Town
I'm not entirely sure why it's called Women Town.
Jiraiya seeing the dazzling lights and bustling crowds, Jiraiya immediately lost himself. "Oh ho ho ho. This is paradise! A great place to gather material, hahahahaha."
Naruto: "Hey, Pervy Sage, didn't we say we were looking for someone?"
Jiraiya immediately regained his composure. " Naruto, we still need to rest. We'll stay here tonight."
Naruto looked around at the extravagant colored lights and the large number of scantily clad women. "Something feels off about this place."
Just then, a beautiful girl in a black miniskirt smiled at the two of them.
Jiraiya: "(♡∀♡) Oh ho ho ho, what a beautiful woman!"
Naruto: "What a beautiful older sister!"
Woman: "(_−)☆"
Jiraiya: "Wow! Looks like I have a chance! Naruto, stop looking!"
Naruto: "What!"
Jiraiya took out a room key and handed it to Naruto: "Here's the room key. Go back to your room and create Chakra to begin your training!"
Naruto: "What?! You Pervy Sage, are you saying you're about to enter the adult world?!"
Jiraiya: "You wouldn't understand the adult world. I'm going to gather information."
Naruto: "Then I'll go too."
Jiraiya: "You can get lost now."
Ten minutes later, Naruto returned to his room alone. " That Pervy Sage! He went out drinking, but said he was gathering intelligence. Honestly!"
At this time, Sasuke also arrived in Women Town.
"Emmm, this is heaven... Pshaw, I need to find Naruto! I should still make it in time. That woman is so beautiful."
But seeing no fewer than a hundred hotels and bars, Sasuke was at a loss for where to begin. "There are too many. Let's take it one at a time."
Naruto finally calmed down, sat cross-legged on the bed, and absorbed and condensed Senjutsu Chakra.
Suddenly, he sensed two extremely dangerous Chakra approaching from outside the door. "Hmm? Such terrifying Chakra, are they coming for me?"
"Bang bang bang"
There was a knock on the door, and Naruto jumped. "This doesn't feel good."
"Squeak!" Naruto opened the door and was immediately stunned to see Kisame and Itachi.
Itachi's eyes revealed a cold, murderous aura that instantly enveloped Naruto.
"Who... who is this person? How come they have eyes just like Sasuke's? It's terrifying."
While Itachi remained silent, Kisame spoke up, "Really, the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox is sealed inside this brat's body?"
Naruto: "Who are you? How do you know about the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox? And how come you have eyes like Sasuke's?!"
Uchiha Itachi pressed down on Naruto's shoulder. " Naruto, come with us."
Naruto slapped Itachi's hand away and took a few steps back. "Why should I listen to you? Who are you anyway? Your Forehead Protector! It's a sign of missing-nin!"
Kisame Hoshigaki stepped forward and said, "I said Itachi-san, this brat is yelling and running around everywhere, it'll be troublesome. How about I break one of his legs first, and then gag him?"
Naruto: "Wh... what!"
Uchiha Itachi: " Naruto, you'd better come with us quietly, or you'll suffer."
Suddenly Itachi seemed to sense something. "Long time no see, Sasuke."
Naruto looked in the direction of the voice and saw Sasuke standing at one end of the corridor, his eyes filled with an expression he had never seen before, his Sharingan already activated. " Uchiha Itachi, I'm going to... kill you!"
Naruto: "He! He's Uchiha Itachi?"
Upon seeing Sasuke Kisame Hoshigaki, "He looks a lot like you, and even has the same Sharingan."
Uchiha Itachi coldly replied, "Him? He's my stupid Bean."
Kisame Hoshigaki: "Oh dear, you two brothers have such a bad relationship, coming right up to say you'd kill me. But then again, I heard the Uchiha Clan was wiped out, and you were the one who did it. How ruthless, Itachi-san by yourself."
Uchiha Itachi: "Hmph."
Naruto pointed at Uchiha Itachi: " Sasuke, is this the person you've been saying you wanted to kill?"
Painful memories replayed in Sasuke's mind: his parents lying in a pool of blood, Itachi's katana stained with the blood of his clansmen, the cold moonlight, and Uchiha Itachi's Sharingan. His Chakra began to boil, actively releasing the energy of his Cursed Seal, causing the surrounding air to tremble.
Kisame Hoshigaki: "Your younger brother is truly remarkable, Itachi-san of you at such a young age. He possesses such powerful Chakra. Should I help him?"
Uchiha Itachi: "No need, just keep an eye on Naruto."
The flame-patterned Cursed Seal silently spread across Sasuke's left arm, and the hatred in Sasuke's heart reached its peak. " Uchiha Itachi, I've been constantly growing stronger and hating more in order to kill you, and today I've finally waited for you!"
"Finally, I've been waiting for you. Thank goodness I didn't forget you, hee hee."
Lord God: "Where did this background music come from!"
Uchiha Itachi: "Oh? You mean you're strong enough?"
"Crackling sounds." Lightning gathered in Sasuke, mixed with Senjutsu Chakra. His hands were burned from the backlash, but the pain only made Sasuke more determined. "I live only to kill you!"
" Chidori!"
