Bang, bang, bang…
At this time, Naruto was using the colorful iron door to block all attacks from Shukaku.
Although the Totem of Undying could revive people, there is a prerequisite: the body cannot receive any damage within 10 seconds after coming into contact with the totem.
This was a conclusion Uzumaki Stark had reached after countless experiments on small animals and observing the white-haired uncle’s deaths.
So, the moment Naruto jumped into the arena, he gra...

Sasuke was completely dumbfounded after being smacked by the statue.
However, he still did as Naruto said, and wrapped his right hand around the statue and held it tightly in his arms.
Seeing this golden statue, he can't help but think of the scene when Kakashi died.
Just when Sasuke was distracted for a moment, a fist-sized Bijudama was already closing in on his chest.
By the time he realized it, it was already too late...
‘Shit!’
‘I can't dodge it!!...

Boom…
With a loud explosion, Gaara flew backwards and only stopped when his body hit the high wall of the arena.
The powerful impact caused the wall behind Gaara to crack.
Gaara, who had never been injured before, had a big gash on his forehead, and the blood dyed his entire vision red.
Drip…
Drip…
Gaara stared in horror at his open palms, watching the blood drip down. The Biju’s Chakra inside his body instantly spiraled out of control.

Uzumaki Naruko cosplayed as the Nine-Tailed Ahri at this time, holding a microphone, standing on a floating door panel, and broadcasting the event loudly.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.
Under Kurama-sensei’s guidance, Naruto successfully mastered the BijuKamehameha.
Compared to the initial version that shot a beam from his hands, Naruto could now sustain the output for five seconds.
He didn’t dare try any longer time, because Kurama-sensei warned him that exceeding five seconds could easily lead to instant death.
However, to use this technique, he still needed to enter the Biju Chakra Cloak mode.

Naruto spent most of the day restoring the training ground to its original state.
Fortunately, this wasn’t too difficult for him.
If Yamato had been the one to see the scorched wasteland, he probably would’ve lost his mind.
In the evening, Kakashi came looking for Naruto again and took away the steak and the statue.
And for Guy’s sake, Kakashi even asked Naruto for an extra healing potion.
After his battle against Gaara, Lee had been left in critical condit...

It had been so hard lately!
He hadn't been this happy since he met that kid Naruto!

Jiraiya's wooden sandals tapped against the ground as he approached Naruto, who was in a daze. A plastic bag dangled from his hand.

He tore open the popsicle packaging, broke the popsicle into two with a gentle snap, and held out half to Naruto.
Taking the popsicle, Naruto looked at Jiraiya and spoke after a long moment, "Thank you… Jiraiya-sensei."

Under Naruto's high-intensity ‘training’, Konohamaru and Sakura finally experienced the true meaning of death.
If not for Naruto pulling out healing items at the last second, they would probably have had to stay in the hospital for half a month.
However, due to Naruto recklessly piloting his Summoned Beast to cause massive destruction in Konoha Village, the Anbu’s members once again dragged both him and Jiraiya to the Hokage’s Office.
As his teacher, Jiraiya certainl...

Gamabunta grabbed his pipe and blew out a massive smoke ring.
Jiraiya hooked an arm around Naruto's neck and whispered through gritted teeth.

The Great Toad Sage, who was nearly a hundred meters tall, sat cross-legged on the spot with his head lowered and a deafening snoring sound coming from his mouth.
Of course, this is not what frightened Jiraiya...
The real problem was...
Dozens of yellow-haired brats were holding iron chains at this time. They climbed onto the toad's limbs, shoulders and head, and kept wrapping the iron chains around the Great Toad Sage.

In the end, Jiraiya reluctantly agreed to train Naruto under Hiruzen’s coercion and inducement.
In order to get Jiraiya to agree, Hiruzen even lent his crystal ball to him for two days.
At first, Jiraiya felt like he'd been scammed by the old man.
But the moment he laid eyes on the crystal ball, he had thrown all his worries behind him.
The next day, Jiraiya and Naruto agreed to meet at the training ground east of the village...

Hiruzen blew out a ring of smoke and looked at the shameless duo of Jiraiya and Naruto standing before him. The wrinkles on his face were tight enough to squeeze a mosquito to death.
Ten minutes ago, he learned from the Anbu that these two troublemakers had gone to the cemetery to steal offerings left for the fallen heroes of Konoha Village.
When he first heard the news, Hiruzen nearly passed out on the spot, almost joining his old friend Danzo in the hospital....

"You’re telling me to train on my own?"
Naruto looked at Kakashi in front of him with an angry look.
He’d waited at the training ground all morning for his teammates, but Sasuke and Sakura never showed up. It was not until noon that Kakashi showed up.
This white-haired pervert said he wanted to take Sasuke for special one-on-one training.

The examiner felt his scalp tingling when he saw Sasuke and Tenten throwing out a large number of Ninja Tools.
The arena wasn’t that large, so many of the shuriken they threw whizzed dangerously close to the spectators' heads.
If they let these two guys continue like this, sooner or later, there will be casualties among the audience.

With Naruto's loud shout, he pulled out another Totem of Undying.
He had already calculated the force of that previous blow.
Now, he doesn't have to worry about accidentally killing the edgy Pikachu.
The Totem of Undying in Naruto's hand whooshed through the air with great force. The golden statue was a bit taller than Naruto, but in his hands, it looked no different from a toy.
The sheer momentum of his swings created gusts of wind that swept through the venue.

Kankuro, the examinee from Sunagakure, couldn't wait to make his pre-battle declaration.
Several Jonin from other villages also smirked openly.
Everyone has tolerated this yellow-haired Puppet Master for a long time.
And judging by the battered state of his puppet, it was clear the brat had already pushed himself to the limit during the earlier exam.
Whether that puppet could even function anymore was questionable.
Not to mention that he now has to face Sunagakur...

Sasuke clutched his neck, his knees buckled as he dropped to one knee.
Sakura, who had been watching the battle unfold, has not yet recovered from the scene of Orochimaru biting Sasuke's neck.

Even so, with her sharp hearing, she had caught fragments of what that androgynous person said to Sasuke just now...
