"It's a kind of destruction that burns everything down, and at the same time, you can feel an incredible life force from it, which is really indescribable in words." On the hospital bed, Yamanaka Hai recounted his experience in the illusion with a pale face like a three-generation Hokage, and it could be seen that even though hours had passed since the scene in the morgue under the tower, he still had lingering palpitations in his retrospective back.

In the medical room, at this time, only three generations and one or two people in Yamanaka who were lying on the hospital bed were present, after being brought back from a coma, it took a full five hours for Yamanaka to wake up, and his body was so weak that he couldn't see that he was an elite shinobi, according to the report of the medical class, not only was the chakra exhausted in Yamanaka at that time, but even the blood in the whole body was inexplicably reduced by one-third, if it wasn't for a timely blood transfusion, the consequences might be unimaginable.

"Flames?" Hearing this, the three generations frowned and thought about it, but even he, who was known as "Doctor Ninja", felt clueless about the situation in Naruto's body, so he could only ask again: "Then Haiyi, do you think it may have something to do with the Nine-Tails?" ”

The three generations can only associate in this direction, with the vitality of the nine tails and the concentration of chakra, it is indeed possible to produce the kind of light and flame described in the mountain, maybe it is the sudden death of the human pillar force that caused some kind of unknowable change in the nine tails.

At the same time, the three generations also hoped for such a result, so that at least it could be proved that the Nine-Tails still existed in the corpse of the human pillar force.

However, he was destined to be disappointed, and the mountain on the hospital bed shook his head slowly, "The subordinates didn't feel any chakra traces of the Nine-Tails at that time, and the subordinates didn't think that the Nine-Tails' ability could reach that level. ”

As an elite shinobi, Yamanaka Kaichi undoubtedly experienced the Battle of the Nine-Tails twelve years ago, the Nine-Tails is indeed a monster-like existence, and it took the power of the whole village to subdue it at the expense of a Hokage, but he recalled that Naruto's body was full of flames that destroyed the power of creation, and it was obvious that there was no connection between the two.

So he explained to the third generation: "Hokage-sama, you know about illusion detection, people, especially ninjas, even if they have not undergone special anti-detection training or have been carved a seal in their brains, there is a basic self-defense mechanism in the consciousness space, and even if it is a dead existence, it is impossible to directly enter the inner deep space. ”

Speaking of this, he seemed to be a little out of breath, and took a few quick breaths before continuing: "At that time, my consciousness entered Naruto's internal as well, only the outer layer of consciousness, which is not dangerous there, because in outer space, everything is just the inner layer, or the projection generated in the deep layer of consciousness. ”

Yamanaka's face grew paler as he spoke, and the color of fear in his eyes was obvious, and the meaning he was trying to express at this moment could not be clearer, that is, the "flame" he saw and made him look like this was nothing more than a phantom projected by some being from the depths of Naruto's inner space.

Even if it is an illusion, it still has such terrifying power, so how terrifying should the real existence in the deep space be? Obviously, this is not an existence that the Nine-Tails can match.

"Is that right......" Miyome understood what Yamanaka Haiichi meant, and his expression became very solemn, he recalled the heat wave in the basement that kept him and Kakashi from approaching, and the medical team's report on Yamanaka's situation, and felt that the development of things was getting more and more out of his control.

"Did the phantom alone vaporize nearly half of Haiichi's blood and all the chakra, Naruto, what the hell happened to you?" The hearts of the three generations were full of all kinds of doubts at the moment, which was a very rare thing for him, the helmsman of Konoha who had a long life.

The new questions that kept popping up made Miyome feel a migraine, and at the same time, he felt powerless, and the passage of time not only took away his strong body, but also degraded his mind more and more.

"I know, I've worked hard for you, you just have a good rest here, Naruto's affairs will be put aside for a while, and when this exam is over, I will organize a human research, and then I will rely on you." Miyome stood up and said comfortingly.

Now that it had happened, he understood that it was useless to rely on imagination at the moment, and the most important thing at the moment was to complete the show of the Zhongnin Exam, and find out Orochimaru and his henchmen, and then he had the strength to think about other things.

Arranged for Yamanaka Kaichi to recuperate here, Miyome walked out of the ward with a tired mood, and there were countless things waiting for him to arrange, presiding over the Chunin exam, meeting the Daimyo, guarding against Orochimaru, and even dealing with the curse mark on Sasuke's body, he never forgot the promise he made to Itachi.

This matter is like a thousand burdens, which makes the figure of this obedient old man look even more rickety, but even so, he must carry these alone, because he is the Hokage of Konoha, the pillar of the village, and he knows that he has the responsibility and obligation to be at the forefront for the next generation, just as he always says: "Where Konoha flies, the fire is endless." ”

He is not only the shadow reflected in the firelight, but also the Konoha who burns out the flame of his own achievement.

……

"Please, let me in!"

At the same time, in the passage to the underground morgue, Hinata pleads with tears as she pleads with Gangko Iron and Kamizuki Izumo who are guarding the door, and tears at the two of them to block a posture that they want to desperately fill in.

It's now the third day of the second exam, and Hinata and the others, who have worked hard to complete the test, didn't expect to learn the bad news of Naruto as soon as they came to the tower, and under the collapse, Hinata rushed straight here like crazy, she didn't believe in the truth of this matter at all, at least until she saw Naruto with her own eyes.

"Calm down, Hinata, this is the place where Hokage-sama ordered the blockade, let's go find Hokage-sama first." Helping Gangzitie, they stopped Hinata's teeth and persuaded anxiously on the side.

He also couldn't believe that all this was true, the genius who had never been defeated in his impression died here so simply, but he was much calmer than Hinata, who cared about the chaos, and his first thought was to go to the Hokage to confirm the truth of this matter.

"Naruto! Naruto-kun...... Whining...... Get out of the way! However, at this moment, Hinata could not calm down, enough suffocating sadness to fill her chest, and her only thought was to see Naruto immediately.

At this time, she was no longer the good girl she used to be, and seeing that everyone was going to stop her no matter what, Hinata finally broke out at this moment.

"Back to heaven!"

This technique that Naruto had helped her do together in the past was now on display for the first time in front of the world.

"What?"

"Not good!"

The speedy chakra whirlwind immediately lifted the unsuspecting Tooth and Shino behind Hinata away, and the huge inertia caused the two of them to slam into the wall with a loud bang.

And the two of them in front of Hinata looked at each other and helplessly got out of the way to dodge, after all, even the two of them had to avoid the edge for a while in the face of the Hinata's stunt, especially on the premise of not wanting to hurt each other.

Both of them knew that the little girl in front of them who was falling into madness was the princess of the Hyuga family, which was not something that could be treated as casually as when they scared Tiantian and others before the beginning, and it was reasonable that the two could understand what the other was doing.

"Offended!" Izumo retreated with a soft snort, and at the same time made a seal in his hand, which meant that he was ready to capture Hinata.

Understanding is understanding, but the Hokage's orders are absolute, both of them are the elite of the village, and it is naturally impossible to give up their principles for emotional reasons, needless to say, years of tacit understanding made them almost simultaneously make the choice to subdue Hinata without harming him.

"Shui Dun, Shui Yu Na Yuan!"

The water that added to the change in the nature of the slime was released from Izumo's mouth, covering the ground around it in an instant, both to bind Hinata in place and to delay her feet and prevent her from using Huitian again.

However, Izumo and Gangko Iron obviously underestimated Hinata's persistence, and with a mixture of grief and anger, she used her 100% strength almost for the first time.

"You ...... Get out of the way! Hinata shouted angrily, and at the same time flew up, her white and tender hands made sword fingers, aiming at the acupuncture points all over Izumo Kazuki's body.

Seeing this, Izumo Kamizuki's pupils shrank, and he naturally knew that Hinata Ie's soft fist was terrifying, even if he was hit, the flow of chakra would be seriously affected, but he didn't retreat, but instead met it head-on, and he looked like he was going to fight to get injured and capture Hinata.

"It's terrible." Seeing this, Gangzitie had a headache, obviously feeling a headache and impatience with this kind of shrunken battle, he understood his old buddy's plan, undoubtedly wanting to use himself to induce him in the front, leaving him a gap for him to restrain Hinata in the back, even if he was beaten a few times by soft fists.

Therefore, although he was reluctant to use this set to deal with a little girl who was shinobi, he immediately changed the chakra frequency under his feet, so that he could move on the ground covered by Mizukahara at will, and in an instant, he took advantage of Hinata to attack Izumo and went around behind her, ready to take her down.

The next development was indeed as they expected, and Izumo Kazuki took Hinata's continuous points in his muffled snort, and at the same time, Gangzitie behind took advantage of this time to stretch out a sinful hand to Hinata.

However......

At this moment, there was a sudden change.

"What?!" The two were startled, it turned out that at the moment when Gangzitie was about to succeed, the Hinata in front of the two disappeared as if out of thin air, and then, the voice of the teenager teasing came from above their heads.

"I said this big brother, don't hug other people's girlfriends from behind."

The two of them looked up in shock, only to see a blonde boy standing upside down on the ceiling, and in the boy's arms, it was Hinata who was looking at the boy in a daze, who was speechless.

But who is it not Naruto.
