Chapter 715: The Gradually Closing Gap
Naruto's expression shuddered as he stared at the demonic scarlet vertical pupil in the huge cage in front of him.
Just looking at this eye, there was a terrible chill that instantly penetrated his whole body, making him shiver.
Immediately after, endless fear surged uncontrollably.
In the darkness, the monster with terrifying eyes seemed to be about to move.
That's when ... Naruto suddenly felt a warmth fill his body and mind, and the chill and fear dissipated.
"Buzz!"
This dark place began to glow violently, and the light shone brightly, shaking Naruto from opening his eyes.
"Naruto, are you alright?"
And the next moment, Naruto's ears were filled with the meaning of Kushina's worry.
Naruto's eyes snapped open, and he lay on his bed, Kushina clutching one of his hands tightly.
He was stunned by this sudden change.
Beside Kushina, Mizumon stretched out his palm and patted her on the shoulder.
"Daddy, Mommyβ" Naruto reacted and spoke slowly.
"It's good to practice hard, but you're also practicing too much. Mizuto looked at Naruto and said, his bright eyes were also full of worry.
"I see. β
Naruto and Mizuto made a slight eye contact, first nodded, then looked sideways, and said, "Mom, I'm fine." β
"If you do this next time, Mom won't spare you easily!"
Kushina used a non-stern voice, as if she was scolding Naruto, but even Naruto could hear that it was her mother's concern for herself.
"I won't be like this in the future. β
Naruto chuckled, but his heart was full of doubts at the moment, and there was doubt in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Mizuto asked, looking at Naruto's slightly furrowed brow.
"I just... It seems to have had a very strange dream. β
Naruto's eyes sank, and he remembered the scene just now, and he still had some fear in his heart.
"What dream?" asked Watergate.
"In my dreams, I don't know how I came to a very strange place, it was very cold, and I seemed to see a huge cage, and in the cage, it seemed like a terrible monster was being held. β
"I didn't see the monster's face, but its eyes were so scary..."
Naruto had palpitations, and his ability to express himself was very limited.
"Sure enough..."
Watergate groaned inwardly.
"You're too tired today, let's rest first. Mizuto rubbed Naruto's hair lightly.
"Oh. Naruto replied, he did feel a little sleepy.
After a few words, Kushina refused to leave.
...
in the bedroom.
"Naruto saw the Nine-Tails, did the seal in his body loosen?"
Kushina looked at the water gate, with the strength of the gossip seal, according to common sense, it was impossible for Naruto to see the Nine-Tails at this time.
Naruto was too young to tell him yet.
The monster he saw just now wasn't dreaming, but... Sealed within its body.
"I checked the seal just now, and there are no problems. β
Mizuto rubbed his chin and said, "It was the Nine-Tails who took the initiative to increase the amount of chakra that was transformed into Naruto's body by the Bagua Seal Style... And during that time period, Naruto's body and energy just reached the limit. β
"What a terrifying power..."
Kushina frowned as she reached out and touched her belly.
Unlike her before, Naruto had planted a seal that completely separated Kushina's own chakra from the Nine-Tails' chakra.
Therefore, as long as the seal is not loosened, the chakra of the Nine-Tails will have no chance to enter her body.
"That kid must have been frightened..."
Kushina looked worried, she knew the horror of the Nine-Tails' power.
"yes, so we can't tell him the truth until that kid becomes a ninja..."
Mizuto's eyes flickered, he didn't know how Naruto would react when he learned that his father had sealed a monster into his body.
The fact that his current cultivation is not going well is all due to this...
...
The next day was also the last day of school for ninja school.
Naruto, like yesterday, went out early in the morning to practice, and last night's incident, he really regarded it as a nightmare.
The new semester is coming.
In fact, the curriculum of the second year of ninja school is not much different from the second half of the first year, except that the training of shuriken is added.
And Naruto's shuriken skills were also guided by Mizumon, although it was impossible to compare with Sasuke, but compared to others, it was still a lot stronger.
During the day, he studied at the ninja school, and at night, he still practiced chakra control.
Kushina also occasionally goes out of the village to carry out tasks, and at the age of three, he also learned to make simple dishes.
In this regard, she also inherited the talent of Jiu Sinai.
So, during Kushina's mission, Asa Yu was in charge of her and Naruto's lunch meals.
In a trance, another few months have passed.
"Brother, can you lend me your ninja manual?"
At night, Asa Yu suddenly came to Naruto's room, stretched out his white and tender little hand, and said.
"Huh, what do you want it for?" Naruto was stunned.
"I'm just curious about what kind of things can make my brother anxious. β
The corners of Ashyo's lips lifted slightly, and he smiled, in order to enhance Naruto's theoretical knowledge, Mizuto would test him from time to time.
It's just that Naruto barely got it right...
"Oh. β
Naruto also looked a little embarrassed when he mentioned this, so he didn't think much about it, and just handed over the ninja manual to Asa Yu.
He doesn't need it much now, anyway.
...
Time flies, and Naruto's second year of study at the ninja school is also coming to an end.
Final assessment.
The content of the assessment, compared with the previous year, only increased shuriken.
"First place, Sasuke Uchiha..."
Iruka pronounced the name without suspense, and Sasuke came out on top with a perfect score in four subjects.
"Second place, Ino Yamanaka. β
Ino immediately looked at Sakura with a smug look, and the latter's face was also full of disbelief.
"Third place, Hinata Hinata. β
"Fourth place, Nara Shikamaru..."
β......β
However, even if Sakura is not convinced, although she still has a perfect score in the assessment of chakra and theoretical knowledge, her physical skills and shuriken skills are very ordinary.
Therefore, the comprehensive ranking is naturally inferior to the children cultivated by the ninja family in Konoha.
And Naruto's results, compared to the previous year, even have a slight decline.
There were some eyes around him, after all, everyone knew that Naruto was the son of the fourth Hokage.
Therefore, his ordinary achievements, compared with Sasuke, Ino, and Hinata, will inevitably be subject to some discussions.
The decline in his grades was not actually due to Naruto's own regression.
One is that his theoretical performance is still at the bottom of the class, and the other is that in Chakra's assessment, his progress is not obvious.
Comparatively, these are also ordinary students who have been learning to control Chakra for a year and a half, and they are all progressing much faster than Naruto.
Some of the best of them are no worse than Naruto now...
So, this year's holiday... Naruto didn't slack off anymore, but spent time in constant practice...
