Chapter 646 Preparation before leaving

When Naruto woke up, Konoha was still the same Konoha. As sunlight streamed into the room through the window, the first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was Giggs sitting not far away.

Giger seemed to know when Naruto would wake up. He turned to meet Naruto's gaze and spoke.

"Did you sleep well?"

Naruto jumped out of bed and excitedly told everyone how wonderful his dream was last night.

After hearing this, Giger scoffed and said sarcastically,

"Did we forget about you kissing that pink-haired girl?"

"Hey! How did you know, Brother Jige...?"

Naruto realized what he was saying halfway through and quickly covered his mouth. Giger shook his head and said...

"Still so pathetic. Most simps don't end up well."

Naruto lowered his head in embarrassment. Gigo didn't really scold Naruto for this. After all, given Naruto's experiences from childhood to the present, it was rare for him to have such a first love. Letting go of her wouldn't be so easy for him.

Giger slowly got up, crossed his arms, and walked to Naruto's bedside. Looking down at Naruto standing on the bed, Naruto subconsciously swallowed and weakly asked, "..."

"What's wrong, Brother Jig?"

Giger spoke calmly,

"The most troublesome thing you learned in school was the ability to create clones, right?"

Naruto was taken aback, then nodded vigorously. Gigg didn't say much either. He raised his hand, and a miniature version of the Book of Seals appeared in his hand as if by magic.

Jig tossed the small scroll to Naruto, who took it with a bewildered expression.

"This contains a ninjutsu technique that is a hundred times more advanced than body-binding techniques. Learn it."

Upon hearing this, Naruto quickly unrolled the scroll, and the first line of large characters read: "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"

Huh? Shadow clones? Or multiple clones?

Upon closer inspection, it's an A-rank ninjutsu!

Naruto looked at the scroll in his hand, feeling a little dizzy, and scratched his head, saying...

"Um... Brother Jig, can I really learn this ninjutsu?"

Giger glanced at Naruto, thinking to himself that this technique was practically tailor-made for him. In the original timeline, he learned this technique in less than the time it took to eat a meal, and the effect of using it even far surpassed that of the copyright holder of the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, the Second Hokage.

He raised his finger and tapped Naruto's forehead.

"How will you know if you don't try? No one in this world is more suited to this ninjutsu than you."

"But the Nine-Tails will interfere with my chakra..."

"Don't worry about that. In fact, this ninjutsu is a perfect match for the Nine-Tails' chakra. Just try it out. Don't go to class today. You'll have one day to learn this ninjutsu."

"What?! One, one day!? Giger, this..."

"Ok?"

Suddenly, wisps of black energy rose from Giger's body, and a powerful sense of oppression erupted, causing Naruto to sit down on the bed with a thud.

"We'll eat when we've learned it."

After saying that, Gigg transformed into a cloud of black energy and surged into Naruto's body, leaving Naruto alone in the room, bewildered.

Inside the sealed space, Gigg's figure materialized before the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Nine-Tails, who had just enjoyed a few days of relaxation, immediately looked dejected. Seeing this, Jig laughed.

"What? You're not happy to see me?"

The nine-tailed fox exhaled two streams of hot air from its nostrils, and said...

"You're such a strange human. I bet you already knew how to get out of here, didn't you?"

Giger chuckled and said,

"Yes, but before that, I need to do some research on the chakra of this world."

"This world...you?"

A glint of light flashed in Nine-Tails' eyes, followed by a look of shock as it spoke.

"You have no chakra?!"

Giger picked at his ear and said,

"Why are you yelling so loudly? Is it strange that you don't have chakra?"

Nine-Tailed Fox didn't respond to Gigg immediately. It frowned and muttered to itself,

"No... You must be from the clan the old man mentioned, maybe it's just a different name for chakra?"

However, the Nine-Tails' murmur was equally loud, and Giggs could hear it clearly without even having to listen carefully.

He flashed and the next second he squatted down on the Nine-Tails' mouth, between the Nine-Tails' eyes.

Jig stretched out an arm, which turned black with a hum. The seemingly simple change made the Nine-Tails feel an extremely strong power fluctuation.

It had no doubt that the tiny black arm in front of it could easily knock it down with a single punch.

At such close range, the Nine-Tails was so nervous that its fur stood on end. Giger gently patted the Nine-Tails' fur below and chuckled.

"Don't be nervous, I have no intention of beating you up today."

"......"

The arrogant Nine-Tailed Fox had never suffered such humiliation before, and this time... it chose to endure it!

There was no way around it; Gigg's power was simply too terrifying, not to mention he also possessed that bizarre ability—a power that could truly kill it!

Giger dispersed the domineering aura from his hands and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Nine Lama, try to communicate with this child properly, you will come to like him."

When Nine-Tails first heard Giger call out its name, it was momentarily stunned. But after hearing what Giger said next, it was completely baffled.

It said with a strange expression,

"You want me to get along well with this brat?"

"Is it that difficult? Do you really want to just stay here until he dies of old age? Actually, you can't really say you hate him."

"So what? He's human too. It's just that humans used despicable means to control me and then imprison me afterwards!"

Giger crossed his arms, completely ignoring the Nine-Tails' resentful rage below, and calmly said...

"The human race is much larger than the nine tailed beasts you have. The differences between individuals are vast. You should be more precise in your target for revenge."

Nine-Tails fell silent upon hearing this, its red eyes flashing incessantly. Giggs continued.

"But take Uchiha Madara, who controls you, and Senju Hashirama, who seals you away, for example. Even if you were released, you wouldn't be able to defeat either of them. And those ninja villages wouldn't let someone like you roam freely in the outside world. So this place is actually the best place for you to stay."

Nine-Tailed Fox snorted coldly and said,

"You mean being locked up in this cage?"

"If you are willing to communicate properly with Naruto Uzumaki, the cage will no longer exist. Moreover, by uniting with Naruto Uzumaki, you will gain even greater power than before. Even if ninjas of Madara Uchiha's or Hashirama Senju's caliber were to be resurrected, you might still have a fighting chance."
