Chapter 22 - Third Training Ground

"You want that Uchiha's eyes? Your current strength isn't quite up to par."

Kurama poured cold water on Naruto, but it was indeed the truth.

"Kurama, you've been sealed for so many years, and you still don't understand battles between Ninja."

Naruto said speechlessly, this big fox really doesn't use its brain.

"What?" Kurama was a little confused.

"Battles between Ninja are information warfare," Naruto explained.

In battles between Ninja, information plays a crucial role. Didn't you see Madara Uchiha become the Six Paths and still get his heart pierced?

"I currently have all of Uchiha Shisui's information, but he doesn't even know about my Mangekyo's Dojutsu, so in this case, the advantage is on my side."

"Where did you get so much information?" Kurama's expression was very puzzled. This guy just buries himself in training, so why is he so knowledgeable about the Ninja world?

"No risk, no reward, Kurama."

"Besides, I don't even need to take action against Uchiha Shisui. The old guys in Konoha will do it themselves. I'll just pick up the scraps then."

"Pick up the scraps? Are you saying someone in Konoha will attack that Uchiha?" Kurama's expression was quite rich. "That's the Mangekyo Sharingan. Are Konoha's higher-ups that stupid?"

"That guy's Dojutsu is called Kotoamatsukami. It can manipulate others at will without them even realizing it, and permanently and completely change their thoughts and will."

Naruto idly broke a chopstick and continued, "Those old guys aren't stupid, they're afraid. No matter how firm Uchiha Shisui's Will of Fire is, as long as he possesses this unreasonable ability, the Konoha higher-ups will never trust him."

"Only when you control your own destiny in your own hands are you truly safe."

"Is that why you said that sentence?" Kurama suddenly thought of the words Naruto had said when he left.

Naivety and stupidity will cause that Uchiha to die at the hands of Konoha's higher-ups, and the Uchiha clan, having lost the Mangekyo Sharingan, will be completely dealt with by Konoha's higher-ups.

Naruto grinned, "So, we can just go pick up the scraps then. Maybe we can even make Konoha's Anbu lose a few more members."

Kurama fell silent, and Naruto quickly finished the few buckets of instant noodles on the table.

After lying on the sofa for a long while, the long-lost relaxation made Naruto, who had been in high-intensity training, feel uncomfortable all over.

Sure enough, it's better to go exercise.

He directly did a carp jump and bounced off the sofa.

He went to the bedroom and rummaged through a few more breathable and loose clothes, not caring whether they were dirty or not. Anyway, with Kurama's Chakra, even insects wouldn't dare to approach him.

Soon, Naruto, who had changed his clothes, wearing a white T-shirt and black shorts, was ready to go out.

But as soon as he opened the door, a wrinkled, skinny old face appeared in front of him.

Prepared!

Naruto subconsciously thought of this word and greeted him with a smile.

"Good morning, Third Hokage!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's originally smiling expression suddenly froze, and he looked at the sun appearing overhead.

Good morning?

"Why is little Naruto getting up so late today?"

Naruto was still smiling.

"I originally planned to rest for a day today, but I feel like my youth shouldn't have any regrets, so I'm going to go train."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes twitched suddenly, and the smile on his face almost couldn't hold back, because Naruto's appearance just now was too much like a Jonin from Konoha, especially those shiny teeth exposed to the sunlight.

"Little Naruto, the village has been a little unstable recently, how about resting for a while and waiting for the Ninja Academy to start?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said earnestly, although that mysterious person seemed to be aiming for the bloodline limit, he might also attack the Jinchuriki.

Naruto's small face was a little curious, "Did something happen in the village?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, worriedly saying, "There's a bad guy in the village recently, and Grandpa is afraid that little Naruto will be abducted by him."

'Huh?'

Naruto only reacted at this time, the unstable factor was actually him, so it seems that Uchiha Shisui didn't mention his Uchiha clan identity, if he did, the Uchiha clan snatching the bloodline limit of a fellow villager, then Uchiha and Konoha would have no chance at all.

Uchiha Shisui wants to deal with him alone.

"It's okay, Third Hokage, my strength is not weak now, if a bad guy dares to attack me, I will directly knock him down."

As he said that, Naruto showed off his fist.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled wryly, even Uchiha Shisui couldn't solve the enemy, how could Naruto, who is at most a Chunin in strength now, possibly solve it.

Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to refuse, but he didn't want to arouse Naruto's resentment, so he came up with a compromise.

"Since that's the case, then Naruto should go to the village's training ground to train."

"Training ground?" Naruto had never heard of it.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and gestured to the Anbu Ninja next to him, saying, "The village's training ground is a place specially for Ninja to practice Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and Ninja knowledge. There are a total of forty-four in Konoha. If little Naruto is there, there won't be any problems with whatever he wants to train, do you want to go?"

After listening to Sarutobi Hiruzen's introduction, Naruto's eyes became brighter and brighter. There is such a good place in the small Konoha village.

"I want to go, I want to go."

The Anbu who Sarutobi Hiruzen had signaled to earlier returned and said respectfully, "Third Hokage, the Third Training Ground is currently empty."

Sarutobi Hiruzen also nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then you can take Naruto over there."

"Yes."

After Naruto arrived, he realized that this Third Training Ground was where Team 7 would snatch the bells in the future.

The surrounding area was a scene of vigorous vitality and all things competing to grow, and a slowly flowing river penetrated the entire forest.

"You will cultivate here from now on."

After the Anbu Ninja said this, he disappeared without waiting for Naruto to respond.

Naruto didn't care, but looked towards the river.

There was a silver-haired figure there.

"Yo, one-eyed uncle!"
