"Fuck!!!"
"You, you, you! You're actually alright?! 2.6?!"
Upon hearing this, Naruto yawned and stretched.
"Of course I'm fine."
"Besides, I just saw you laughing maniacally like you were possessed. Are you sure there's something wrong with your head?"
"I..." Shukaku's lips twitched violently. Wasn't this a direct insult directed at him?
Naruto ignored the other person's dark expression.
He patted the red fishing rod in his hand and grinned.
"Your Tailed Beast Ball attack was really cool."
"Now it's my turn."
Having said that, he cast his fishing rod and prepared to fish for Shukaku's chakra.
Upon seeing this, Shukaku's expression changed drastically.
She already had very little chakra left, and now she was being tricked into doing it again.
Isn't this going to kill me?!
It swung its arms and roared at Naruto.
"Yamete!!!"
"Stop right now!!!"
Chapter 91 has been completely drained, not a single drop left! The Fifth Hokage candidate!
"Stop...stop fishing for my chakra."
"Stop...stop it!!!"
"I'm so weak I can't even stand up!!!"
"There really isn't a single drop left!!"
At this moment, Shukaku lay on the ground, his face filled with terror.
It stared at the red fishing rod in Naruto's hand and shook its giant claws repeatedly.
Recalling the scene of his chakra being fished out by a fishing hook, Shukaku's eyes were filled with fear, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
The thought of that scene is terrifying!
Naruto listened to its words, then looked at the ten red chakra particles in the red glowing fish basket, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Don't be like that, I think you still have the energy."
"Shouldn't we at least completely drain you dry?"
As he spoke, he was about to cast his line to fish again.
Upon witnessing this scene, Shukaku trembled with fear.
If they keep being squeezed dry like this...
Who could stand that?!
At that moment, it suddenly felt that the outside world was too terrifying!
Only by hiding inside the sealed space can I find a sliver of security!
I'm outta here!
After figuring it out, Shukaku stopped lingering and immediately retreated back into Gaara's sealing space.
And the external body also changes accordingly.
The massive body began to soften and eventually turned into countless grains of sand.
Naruto watched as Shukaku retreated back into Gaara's seal, and shrugged somewhat boredly.
At this moment, Gaara, who had been unconscious, gradually woke up.
He now only feels weak and powerless.
"What happened?"
He stared blankly at the devastated scene, muttering to himself.
But soon, he immediately turned his attention to Naruto.
When he saw Naruto, who was spotless, his pupils suddenly contracted.
He remembered it clearly.
He used the "Feign Sleep Technique" to make himself unconscious, allowing Shukaku inside his body to fight Naruto.
Shukaku had returned to the seal, but Naruto was standing perfectly fine in front of him.
What happened during that time?!
The more he thought about it, the more his head ached; he had no idea what was going on.
Just as Gaara was suffering from a splitting headache, two figures rushed over.
When Gaara saw who it was, the tension in his heart eased slightly.
The two who arrived suddenly were Kankuro and Temari from Sunagakure.
Kankuro quickly helped Gaara up and asked, "How are you?"
Gaara, seeing how much the other cared for him, gave Kankuro a deep look, then shook his head.
"I'm fine, just a little weak."
Hearing this, Kankuro finally relaxed.
Temari, who was standing to the side, kept her eyes fixed on Naruto the whole time.
Curiosity was evident in her eyes.
She watched Gaara fight Naruto from afar, as did Shukaku fight Naruto.
Especially the fishing hook in Naruto's hand, and that lightning-fast speed, it's truly terrifying!!!
she felt.
If I were to fight Naruto, I probably wouldn't survive three seconds!
Thinking of this, her vigilance increased.
Then, turning his head to Kankuro and Gaara, he said, "Let's go!"
Immediately, the three of them left quickly, not daring to linger there for even a second longer!
After Orochimaru's plan to destroy Konoha failed, the Sunagakure ninjas attacking Konoha Village were unable to withstand the Konoha ninjas' counterattack.
Not long after.
The Sand Ninja who had invaded Konoha Village were completely routed, and they quickly retreated.
With this, the Chunin Exams incident comes to an end!
The opportunity slipped by in an instant.
A month has passed since Orochimaru invaded Konoha.
During this time.
The villagers of Konoha are all actively engaged in construction.
But on that very day, a major piece of news came from the upper echelons of Konoha Village!
The current Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, has voluntarily resigned!
From now on, he will no longer be just a shadow of his village!
Those who know the inside story are well aware of it.
It wasn't Hiruzen Sarutobi who voluntarily offered his resignation; rather, it was the daimyo of the Land of Fire who proposed it.
After Orochimaru's attack on Konoha, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire was furious!
In particular, upon learning that the instigator of the attack on Konoha was Hiruzen Sarutobi's apprentice, the Daimyo went so far as to demand that Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately relinquish his position as Hokage!
Of course, the reason why Hiruzen Sarutobi was removed from the position of Hokage was not solely due to Orochimaru.
Another point is that Hiruzen Sarutobi is too old and there is no longer any need for him to continue serving as Hokage.
In addition, not only was the Chunin Exams not successfully held, but it also made a mess of Konoha Village.
In short, Hiruzen Sarutobi's days as Hokage are over.
Hiruzen Sarutobi and Jiraiya were standing on the roof of the Hokage Building.
At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi stood on the top of the Hokage Building, squinting as he looked at the rebuilt Konoha Village, and then took another deep drag on his pipe.
Jiraiya leaned against the slightly rusty iron chain bar beside him, feeling the breeze on his cheek. Then he turned his head to look at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was smoking, and asked, "Did you call me here for something?"
Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was about to continue smoking, stopped. He took a deep look at his disciple and then nodded.
"Jiraiya, the Fifth Hokage..."
however--
Before he could finish speaking, Jiraiya waved his hand and laughed nonchalantly, saying, "I don't have the ability to inherit the position of Fifth Hokage."
"I reckon if I really become the Fifth Hokage, it won't be long before someone comes along and overthrows me."
"..." Upon hearing his disciple's reply, Hiruzen Sarutobi's lips twitched violently.
You haven't even become Hokage yet, and you're already so insecure?
Just as he was about to say something more encouraging, Jiraiya spoke up, saying, "If I become Hokage, wouldn't that be like being tied to Konoha Village?"
"I don't like being restrained, so let's find someone else for the Hokage position."
Hiruzen Sarutobi fell silent after hearing Jiraiya's words.
He understands the other person's personality.
