Chương 24: Shuriken Shadow Clone Is Successful, But A Bit Abnormal
Naruto's abnormal appearance suddenly shocked the Konoha Village ninja, breaking out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, they had seen Naruto like this during the battle between him and Mizuki before.
Otherwise, they might really have had a heart attack.
Sakura: "This... I remember when Mizuki was going to kill Iruka-sensei, the lines on Naruto's face became very thick."
Ino: "But Naruto didn't have red eyes at that time, so what's going on?"
Even Naruto himself trembled a few times in fright.
He had never seen such a hideous appearance of himself.
Haku: "I've seen Naruto like this; the power will suddenly become very strong, and the chilling chakra will leak orange or even red from his whole body."
Zabuza: "This is the chakra of the Nine Tails in that kid, Haku. No wonder you failed back then."
Naruto: "So that's how I looked when I beat you on the bridge?"
Haku: "Not exactly. At that time, you were wrapped in red chakra, and it was because of your outburst of anger when you mistakenly thought that Sasuke was dead."
Sasuke: "Hmph! I've seen him in this state. It was also because of anger when he was fighting Orochimaru in the Forest of Death."
Orochimaru: "But at that time, Naruto didn't have the Nine Tails' chakra wrapped around his body, just like he appears on the screen now. He simply became hideous."
Anger!
With the information shared, the audience reacted.
When Naruto fought against Mizuki, it was also due to the anger caused by Mizuki's actions, which triggered the change in appearance.
This is Naruto being influenced by the Nine Tails' chakra.
The most important thing is that since Naruto became like this, he could instantly release multiple Shadow Clone Techniques, creating thousands of clones.
Clearly, Naruto in this state represents a turning point in his abilities.
After this point, his progress in all aspects of ninjutsu practice would change drastically.
Minato: "I can explain to everyone that if Naruto is affected by the Nine Tails' chakra, it means that the Nine Tails' chakra is leaking from the seal."
Kushina: "To put it simply, the Eight Trigram Seal is loose, and as Naruto uses the Nine Tails' chakra more, the seal's power will weaken. But the advantage is that Naruto can use more of the Nine Tails' chakra while using his own chakra more effectively."
As the Eight Trigram Seal's strength diminishes, Naruto's chakra for suppressing the seal will decrease too.
That way, he can better utilize his own chakra.
Nine Tails: "Hahaha, Kushina, so what? You don't think this brat can really control my power, do you? Eventually, the seal will lose its effect completely, and I will regain my freedom.
I was so fortunate that chakra formed into a fox form a full five years earlier, and from what I see, that kid wouldn't mind using my power."
Freedom!
Kurama was elated.
He couldn't wait to see himself free again.
Naruto's transformation made the expressions of those around him grow serious.
Being the Nine Tails Jinchūriki has a Trigramificant impact on Konoha Village.
Even in other ninja villages, Naruto holds a critical position.
If what the Nine Tails said is true, and Naruto becomes darker in spirit, he might seek revenge on Konoha Village.
However, there's also a chance that the darkened Naruto would target not just Konoha Village, but other ninja villages as well.
This is not an unlikely scenario.
Another possibility is that Naruto's excessive use of the Nine Tails' power could lead to the complete release of the Nine Tails.
Other ninja villages would not stand by and do nothing, but that's the Nine Tails we're talking about—the strongest of the tailed beasts.
No village would miss the chance to have an additional Jinchūriki, especially the host of the most powerful-tailed beast.
From this moment, the direction of that world seems to have shifted dramatically, and the balance of power in the ninja world is very likely to be broken because of Naruto's choices.
[Naruto stood there for a long time.]
[Memories of the past kept flooding his mind.]
[Perhaps even he didn't know why he was so angry today.]
[Pulling up his hoodie to hide his lost and furious expression, Naruto walked toward the back hills of Konoha Village with his head down.]
[He knew very well that if he didn't vent his anger completely now, he might really end up catching up with that group from earlier.]
[He couldn't wait to tear them apart on the spot.]
["Old man, do you know my parents?"]
[As he walked, Naruto recalled the conversation with the Third Hokage.]
[He accepted that he was an orphan, but even if he was an orphan, he should at least know who his parents were. If they were no longer in this world, he could at least visit their graves.]
[But remembering the Third Hokage's response made Naruto clench his fists in anger.]
["It's all in the past, so there's no need to mention it too much."]
["Some things are better left unknown for your happiness."]
[Happiness?]
[There are no children who don't know their parents' identity and still feel happy.]
[Combining the Third Hokage's words, Naruto felt even more depressed.]
[Could it be that his parents abandoned him willingly, or that the Third Hokage was deliberately hiding the truth?]
[In short, for Naruto right now...]
[He, who doesn't know the truth, feels that no one is trustworthy.]
[Whoosh!]
[A shuriken sliced through the air.]
[Naruto quickly made a seal and clapped his hands together.]
[Snap!]
[With the sound of his palms meeting, the thrown shuriken seemed to multiply.]
[A lone shuriken suddenly scattered into dense black shadows.]
[Whoosh whoosh...]
[The sound of shurikens cutting through the air became even more intense.]
[More than ten meters away, the branches of trees along the shuriken's path broke, and the ground became a mess.]
["Phew!"]
[Naruto, who had vented recklessly, panted heavily.]
[The exhaustion that overcame him caught him by surprise.]
[For the first time, he felt drained from using the Shuriken Shadow Clone technique.]
[Naruto, having calmed down, raised his gaze and looked ahead. When he saw the scene, he froze.]
["Eh!?"]
["Did I do all of this?"]
["The Shuriken Shadow Clone technique actually worked."]
[It wasn't just successful.]
[On a branch not far behind Naruto, a purple-haired Anbu ninja stood frozen in place.]
[What kind of terrifying Shuriken Shadow Clone technique is this?]
[Just now, Uzuki Yugao had been tailing Naruto as usual.]
[Although the boy seemed pushed to the edge and cursed again, Yugao, who didn't notice the shift in his expression, didn't take it seriously.]
[To her, Naruto was acting normally.]
[He was upset, left dejectedly, went to the back hills, and practiced the Shuriken Shadow Clone technique.]
[Everything was going according to routine.]
[The only unusual thing was the Shuriken Shadow Clone technique he used.]
["How many shurikens are there, and how powerful they are."]
["No, I need to report this to the Third Hokage immediately."]
