Three days after starting the training.
On a bridge under construction.
Naruto sat on the side bored, looking at the Tazuna who was moving the wood and hammering it.
"Hey, kid, why are you alone? What about the other two?"
Tazuna asked while swinging the hammer.
"They are training, so I'm left to protect you."
"Haha, so, you are really powerful, so don't you need to train?"
"Of course I do but I have already learned what they are doing."
"Sure enough, you are much more reliable than your weak teacher."
Tazuna nodded.
"Tazuna, do you have time?"
"Titi, what's wrong?"
"I'm here...to tell you that I want to quit."
The man named Titi said hesitantly.
"Even you, want to quit?!"
"Tazuna, we are old friends, although I want to help you, in that case, we will all be targeted by Gato! Besides, if something happens to you..."
"So I don't want to do it anymore, and the bridge-building thing is also..."
Titi said awkwardly.
"This is our bridge. It will bring business and transportation to this extremely poor country! It is precisely because we believe in this that we all have to work together to build it!"
Tazuna said loudly.
"But we could lose our lives!"
Titi roared unwillingly.
"...I see, you, you don't have to come here again."
Tazuna sighed.
After Titi left, Tazuna didn't work anymore, but sat down, took out the sake bottle, and took a sip.
"I've always wanted to know why you didn't leave when I didn't tell you the real mission truthfully?"
"Isn't this exactly what you hoped for? You tricked us here and then thought that we would definitely help you using morality. Why, now that it has come true, are you starting to regret it?"
Naruto looked at the sea and said lightly.
"Oh, I didn't expect to be seen through by you. "
Tazuna didn't show any embarrassment but laughed out loud.
"However, now that even the people who were helping me build the bridge have left, there is no need for you to stay and protect me."
"Now it's not a question of whether you want us to leave, but we can't leave at all. We can't leave until Kakashi-sensei has fully recovered, otherwise, it will be very dangerous to return to Konoha with such a body."
"So, you can rest assured and continue to do your thing."
Naruto explained.
"I want to, too, but I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it."
Tazuna looked at the broken bridge in front of him and sighed in frustration.
This country was under the shadow of Gato, no matter how strong his determination to build a bridge was, he could not complete it.
Thankfully there were still these Konoha ninjas helping him resist danger. If they leave, it will really be over.
Originally, if there were enough people to help, the construction speed might have been faster, but now everyone has chosen to give up under the threat of Gato.
"what can we do about it?"
"If you don't know what to do, just continue to follow what you thought before and continue to do it."
Naruto said.
"Even if the bridge is not completed in the end, its existence may continue to guide those who take up arms to resist Gato, isn't that enough?"
"You...you don't talk like a brat."
Tazuna laughed out loud.
And Naruto was also very much looking forward to the fight.
Because by seven o'clock this morning, the upgrade of his system was over, and a few new functions were added.
[Hamster Treasure system has been upgraded, and the multiplication rate has been changed from a hundred times in ten days to a thousand times]
[The new functions are as follows:]
[1. Tail Beast Chakra can be stored, and 10,000 points can be upgraded and synthesized into a tenth One Tail Beast]
[2. You can store a bloodline limit (15), 10,000 bloodlimit (15) can be upgraded to Dōjutsu(3), and 100,000 upgraded Dōjutsu (3) can be upgraded to God Eye (1)]
[3. Can master all attribute ninjutsu]
"System, what is the number behind the bloodline limit?"
Naruto asked suspiciously.
[A total of 15 types of Kekkei Genkai exist in the ninja world]
[There are 3 kinds of strongest Dōjutsu Rinnegan, Tenseigan, and Rinne-Sharingan]
"The upgrade you mentioned, shouldn't it mean that I have to collect 15 kinds of bloodline limit, and each of them has to have 10,000 copies to be upgraded? Then the God Eye is synthesized in this way?"
[yes]
"..."
"Wait! Rinnegan, I remember, needed 10,000 copies of Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, but now the multiplier has become a thousand times. I only need to save ten times to upgrade?!"
"The same goes for Tenseigan! Then, I just need to find a way to get a bloodline limit?"
"Thinking about it this way, the difficulty has been reduced by more than half! And there is also the tail beast Chakra, even if there was only one-tenth of the One Tail beast, that is enough."
Naruto thought about it. When the time comes, he will get the Rinnegan, plus he will be the perfect Jinchūriki of the Tailed Beasts.
He could basically become the same as Sage of Six Paths, right?
"Maybe at that time, I can also make some Ten Tails Chakra, then I would be the closest existence to Ōtsutsuki! Well, it would be easy to surpass Kaguya!"
