Flexing Muscles

The killing intent from Kurama permeating the air was gradually dissipating.

However, this did not allow the surrounding ninjas to breathe a sigh of relief.

Because the current situation had entered their unknown territory.

The normal Chakra of ninjas in this world is blue.

But the golden Chakra on Naruto's body at this moment was obviously not his own, belonging to the Tailed Beast within his body, yet it was not the crimson Chakra that people knew.

It was precisely because of this unknown change that they became even more nervous.

"This is... Nine Tails Chakra Mode?"

Only Sarutobi Hiruzen, known as the Third Hokage and the Professor of Ninjutsu, was delighted to see this situation.

Konoha's Nine Tails Jinchuriki had reached Naruto as the third generation.

The previous two generations of Jinchuriki were proficient in sealing techniques. Although they failed to communicate with Kurama and become perfect Jinchuriki, they forcibly seized Kurama's Chakra for their own use and could enter Nine Tails Chakra Mode.

The external manifestation is like Naruto, whose whole body is covered in golden Chakra, with comma Patterns appearing on his clothes. Whether it is speed, defense, or strength, all aspects are improved, possessing more powerful power than his own Chakra.

The previous Jinchuriki basically stayed in the village, existing like house-guarding mascots, and had no chance to go to the battlefield, so few people had seen the appearance of the Nine Tails Golden Body.

But for Sarutobi Hiruzen, all of this was too familiar.

Naruto's successful entry into Nine Tails Chakra Mode was excellent news for Konoha, which had experienced the Nine Tails Riot and the Uchiha clan extermination and was now empty of combat power.

No wonder Naruto said seven days ago that he was going to experience the most important trial in his life, probably to seize Kurama's Chakra.

This was certainly a dangerous thing, and he would definitely stop it if he knew beforehand, but since it was successful now, it was a good thing.

With Naruto's closeness to him, he would definitely become an important force in protecting the village.

Moreover, the previously worried about Nine Tails rampage, causing huge economic losses and casualties, would not happen.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen, with some expectation, brought several Sealing Team members and came to Naruto three meters away in a body flicker, and tentatively asked in a gentle voice: "Naruto, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Third Hokage."

Naruto raised his hand, glanced at the Kurama Chakra covering his whole body, and replied in a calm voice.

The words were respectful, but with alienation.

This made Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart skip a beat, because Naruto used to call him Third Hokage Grandpa.

"Could it be that this child knows something?"

The thought flashed through his mind, and before Sarutobi Hiruzen could think of what to say, he heard Naruto continue:

"What are you all doing here? Did Uchiha Itachi return to the village again and want to attack me and Sasuke, so you came to protect us?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had not yet thought about how to answer, subconsciously showed a surprised expression on his face, as if saying you guessed it, and said with a smile: "Little Naruto, don't worry, it's okay now, let Grandpa take a look at your current physical condition."

He did not admit Naruto's guess, nor did he deny it.

As he spoke, he took a step forward and stretched out his hand to grab Naruto's arm, wanting to check the sealing situation in his body at the moment.

Retreating a step without a trace, avoiding the Third Hokage's seemingly unintentional, but actually swift grab, dark as ink Chakra began to condense on Naruto's raised arm.

"There's no need for the Third Hokage to trouble himself; my body has never felt better."

As he spoke, with Kurama's full assistance and Naruto's own efforts, the pitch-black Chakra in his hand had completely solidified, forming a black sphere about the size of a basketball, extremely condensed and compressed.

With that, Naruto gently pushed.

The black sphere instantly crossed Sarutobi Hiruzen's head at a speed invisible to the naked eye, passed through the surrounding group of ninjas, and fell into the vast, dense forest behind them.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Sasuke, Kakashi, Yamato, Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi, Guy, Hyuga Hiashi, the Ino-Shika-Cho clan leaders, Mitokado Homura, Torifu Koharu...

Many well-known Konoha Jonin, including many unknown Konoha Jonin around them, subconsciously followed the black trail left in their retinas with their eyes, and cast their gaze in the direction where the black sphere disappeared.

Boom!

A deafening, earth-shattering explosion sounded.

Accompanied by endless light and heat, it was reflected in people's eyes.

The air was pushed away by the enormous force, forming milky white air waves that quickly spread around the explosion.

Trees as thick as people were torn apart inch by inch by this terrifying force as if they were made of paper, turning into flying fragments all over the sky, and then completely reduced to ashes under the impact of the subsequent force.

Even though they were still a long distance away, the gust of wind mixed with dust blowing over still made everyone subconsciously raise their arms to block it in front of them.

When the storm subsided, all the ninjas who lowered their arms opened their mouths involuntarily.

In the distance, a large area of the lush forest had disappeared.

Roughly estimated, a huge pit with a diameter of two to three hundred meters appeared in front of people.

A water column as thick as three people could hug gushed out from the center of the pit, soaring into the sky, and then falling from the sky, submerging the blasted pit and gradually overflowing.

"This... the underground water vein has been blasted through!"

"Too strong, it's simply not a power that humans should possess."

"Is an S-rank ninjutsu this powerful?"

Among the crowd, someone saw this scene and couldn't help but exclaim in shock.

Many Jonin with sufficient self-restraint couldn't help but reveal a look of shock at this moment, even if they didn't exclaim in shock.

They had only seen such a powerful force in the legendary records of Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi who created Konoha, and perhaps Uchiha Madara, who was enough to match him.

But now, a child who was just over ten years old had mastered such a powerful force.

This made the surrounding Jonin who witnessed all this feel a little jealous in addition to shock. They had worked hard for half their lives to become Jonin.

However, they were not as good as a child.

Even people with the best mentality would feel unwilling in the face of such a reality.

After the shock, all the ninjas present couldn't help but cast their complex gazes at the calm-looking young man standing not far from Sarutobi Hiruzen.
