章 123: Four years
For four years, Naruto had diligently honed his skills in Rain Shinobi Village after Uchiha Itachi's "failed" attempt to eliminate the Three Tails Jinchūriki, also known as the Mandarin Orange Yagura, Fourth Mizukage.
Now twelve years old, Naruto had undergone a remarkable transformation from his eight-year-old self. His height, in particular, had surged from 1.6 meters to an impressive 1.8 meters. With such rapid growth, one couldn't help but wonder if he'd easily surpass 1.9 meters by the time he reached eighteen.
Already towering over many adults, Naruto still felt dwarfed by the likes of Hoshigaki Kisame, standing at a towering 9.5 meters, and Kakuzu, at 1.85 meters. Despite this, among his fellow Akatsuki members, most were around 1.8 meters, making Naruto's stature less conspicuous.
Yet, considering his true age, his towering presence seemed somewhat exaggerated, didn't it?
Alongside his rapid physical development, Naruto's appearance had undergone significant changes. He sported a more mature look with distinct features, blue eyes, and short, spiky yellow hair. The faint smirk playing on his lips gave him a mischievous charm, akin to a sun-kissed rogue.
Notably, the whisker-like marks adorning his cheeks added to his enigmatic allure. While some might not readily label Naruto as handsome, those with a discerning eye could see his appeal.
Examining Naruto's physique further, his bare upper body revealed a sculpted form reminiscent of chiseled marble. Years of rigorous training had transformed him into a specimen worthy of admiration. His muscles, finely toned and defined, exuded both power and agility—a testament to his unwavering dedication and hard work.
Each muscle seemed perfectly proportioned, brimming with strength and explosive energy yet retaining a remarkable agility—a testament to the precision sculpted by years of relentless effort.
It's not the kind of "design" that relies on protein powder and specific actions just for beauty.
The most important thing is that his physical body doesn't look good. In that seemingly thin body, there is actually an extremely terrifying power hidden.
Because after four years of hard practice, Naruto is now able to move easily even when the body surface is covered with a 500-fold gravitational magnetic field.
Five hundred times, the weight of one catty on the earth can reach five hundred catties, and it even feels heavier and heavier.
The reason why this level can be reached is because Naruto has used all the time he sleeps. He has not slept for four years, but has specially prepared twenty-four Shadow Clones to replace himself for spiritual rest. , As long as one Shadow Clone is lifted every hour,
It will keep him full of energy all the time.
But this has already reached his limit. After reaching the level of 500 times the gravity, even if it doubles again, it is very difficult, as if it has encountered a bottleneck.
Naruto has an instinct, once he breaks through 500 times the gravity, his physical fitness will reach a qualitative leap.
In fact, even now, his physical fitness can be called a body of steel.
After all, even the cells of his whole body have been upgraded by the Ultimate crushing level. Maybe the life form of the whole person is far beyond the scope of human beings, right?
So he guessed that once he broke through the 500-fold bottleneck, maybe he could already be called a god?
In addition, Naruto has not only got such a terrifying improvement in physical fitness, but also other unexplainable gains.
In the first year of cultivation, Naruto could only practice with 5,000 Shadow Clone.
However, by the second year, 10,000 Shadow Clones had been cultivated at the same time.
In the third year, there were 20,000 people, and in the fourth year, that is, in the first half of this year, it reached the point where 50,000 people practiced at the same time.
You must know that the number of ninja coalition forces in the original work is only 80,000, which is equivalent to the ninjas of the entire ninja world helping him practice.

With the accumulation and practice of practice experience and experience, Naruto finally asked Nagato to give an order to the others in Akatsuki's organization.
That is to ask them to bring them back if they find a ninjutsu scroll or something during the course of the action.
Because of this, Naruto has quietly mastered countless ninjutsu in the past few years.
Being a versatile ninja with a complete set of attributes, Naruto could master almost any ninjutsu.
In the end, he even learned Konan's "Paper Dun" technique, and Nagato's wisdom gained through years of wielding the Rinnegan helped Naruto avoid certain pitfalls.
Naruto also became adept at powerful techniques like Planetary Devastation.
During this time, Nagato proposed the idea of Naruto creating his own "Pain Six Paths," but Naruto declined. At that time, he was solely focused on cultivation, but now he had no interest in such creations.
While Pain Six Paths were superior to regular clones or Shadow Clones, they dispersed power, weakening the overall strength. Naruto placed greater trust in his own abilities.
For four years, Naruto dedicated every moment to his training, driven by his ultimate goal of avenging Ōtsutsuki Kaguya and Black Zetsu. He was truly desperate, sacrificing everything for this cause.
During these four years, Naruto honed nearly all his abilities to perfection.
He mastered techniques like the Mangekyō Sharingan's pupil abilities, Rinnegan's abilities, and even learned to simultaneously activate both eye techniques. He also honed his mastery of Susanoo's power.
Occasionally, he sent Shadow Clones to roam the Ninja World, challenging random encounters. This earned him the moniker "Afei," a mysterious figure wearing a hat and mask whose true identity remained unknown.
Those who encountered Afei were advised not to flee. While he might challenge them, he never posed a lethal threat and even rewarded them with money afterward. Afei claimed to be a martial enthusiast seeking to refine his skills.
Unbeknownst to him, Afei gained significant renown.
Naruto's unpredictable journeys sometimes led to clashes with authorities, including incursions into the five great ninja villages and skirmishes with Orochimaru and even the samurai, resulting in numerous victories.
As a result, Naruto's accomplishments may have surpassed even his own expectations.
Then, on this particular day, Naruto suddenly ceased his training.
"It's been four years. Shouldn't something like the Chunin Exams start?"
