Chapter 217 2 year later

At this moment, Naruto seemed to be immersed in a deep self-analysis. Even in his sleep, his mind did not stop working.

His consciousness was like a sharp probe, continuing to carefully explore the mistakes in every detail and the shortcomings in the battle.

Time slipped away quietly while Naruto was sleeping, and he didn't know how much time had passed when a gentle knock on the door came without warning.

"Brother Naruto, Brother Naruto."

That was Toadji's voice.

However, Naruto was still deep in sleep, and did not respond to the calls from the outside world. It was as if he was tightly wrapped in a quiet and deep dream, and everything around him seemed unable to wake him up from this sleeping state.

Seeing that Naruto did not respond, Gamakichi and Gamalong gently pushed the door open.

The room was a little dim, with most of the sunlight blocked by the curtains.

Gamaji jumped to Naruto's bed, looked at Naruto's sleeping face, and muttered softly, "Naruto-brother, why are you sleeping so deeply?"

Toad Ji felt helpless. He thought about it, then jumped to the window and pulled open the curtains.

The sunlight poured in instantly, lighting up the entire room.

Naruto seemed to feel the intensity of the light. He turned over, shielded his eyes with his arms, and mumbled incoherently, "Let me sleep a little longer..." Gamakichi jumped onto his pillow and said loudly into his ear, "Brother Naruto, Granny Shima is calling you to eat!"

Naruto was suddenly startled, and his deep sleepiness disappeared in an instant.

He sat up suddenly, with the thoughts from his dream still lingering in his mind. However, at this moment, another kind of "pain" quickly occupied his senses.

Naruto couldn't help but shudder at the thought of Naegi-san's "meal".

It was a mixture of strange herbal flavors and an indescribable fishy smell. Every bite was like a torture to the taste buds.

He still remembered the first time he tried it, the slimy texture spread in his mouth and almost made him vomit. The sight of all those insect-like ingredients wriggling in the bowl made his stomach churn just thinking about it.

He rubbed his eyes and looked around.

When he saw that only Gamakichi and Gamalong were around, Naruto reached out from his space ring without hesitation and took out a large bag of snacks, and placed them in front of the two of them with a "clatter".

“Gamaji, Gamalong,” Naruto said seriously, “I plan to stay in seclusion for a while. During this time, I want to concentrate on training and cannot be disturbed by other things.

Just help me tell Granny Shima that I can take care of the food myself." As he said this, he pushed the snacks in front of the two toads.

As soon as Toad Dragon saw the big bag of snacks, his eyes lit up instantly and drool began to flow from the corners of his mouth. He looked so greedy as if he had seen the most tempting food in the world.

And Toadji understood what he meant.

He picked up the snacks with his two claws and said, "Don't worry, Naruto-geki, I promise that no one will disturb your practice for eating during this period of time."

As they spoke, the two toads ran out of the room in a hurry, holding the snacks.

Naruto looked at their receding backs, breathed a sigh of relief, and the expression on his face became serious again.

He slowly sat down cross-legged, his thoughts drifting back to the thrilling battle before.

He realized that his strength had reached a new level. Under such circumstances, the traditional ordinary ninjutsu of the ninja world could no longer meet his current needs.

Even with the blessing of his own realm, the power of those ninjutsu was still too weak compared to the powerful enemies he faced.

Thinking of this, Naruto no longer hesitated. He stood up and walked towards the Sutra Library of the Medicine King Hall.

As soon as you enter the Sutra Repository, you will be greeted by an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

His attention was first attracted by the six king-level spells that exuded a powerful aura. They corresponded to the six elements of fire, water, earth, wood, ice, and wind.

Naruto took a quick look and found that he could learn it.

Naruto then selected three heavenly-level techniques, namely: ice, lightning, and space.

After selecting his technique, Naruto walked towards the area where his martial arts skills were stored.

He was well aware that he had always had shortcomings in physical skills and swordsmanship. Having weapons to help him in a battle with a strong opponent would undoubtedly greatly increase his strength.

So, he carefully selected two martial arts books, one was a king-level boxing martial arts book, and the other was a sword martial arts book.

After finishing the selection, Naruto felt the pressure doubled as he held the heavy load of more than ten martial arts techniques.

After all, these martial arts and techniques are not produced by the system and cannot be learned with just one click.

"It seems that there is still a lot to learn." Naruto couldn't help but mutter to himself. His eyes fell on the pile of heavy martial arts secrets in his arms again, and a strong sense of mission surged in his heart.

He knew very well that each secret book contained knowledge that could greatly increase his strength, but this also meant that he had to make a huge effort.

Fortunately, there is the Enlightenment Pill within the system, which undoubtedly brings great hope to Naruto.

And after the system upgrade, intermediate enlightenment pills appeared, and their effects were astonishingly powerful.

This intermediate enlightenment pill can increase one's understanding a thousand times and last for 24 hours. This is a timely help for Naruto, who has to learn a large number of martial arts techniques.

Naruto took a deep breath and put the intermediate enlightenment pill into his mouth.

The pill melted in his mouth, and a cool feeling instantly spread throughout his body. Then, his mind became clearer than ever before.

At this moment, Naruto seemed to have entered a whole new realm.

He picked up the martial arts techniques and secret manuals again. The originally complex and difficult to understand contents now seemed to have been unveiled and became clear and easy to understand.

His thinking was as fast as lightning, and the principles of every move and every technique quickly appeared in his mind.

Under the effect of the intermediate enlightenment pill, Naruto began a crazy learning journey. He absorbed the knowledge in the secret book eagerly and imprinted every technique deeply in his mind.

Time passed quietly as he focused, and his strength increased at an astonishing speed.

Two years later, Naruto slowly came out of his long period of seclusion and training.

At this moment, his temperament had undergone a drastic change.

The immaturity and confusion that once existed in his eyes have long disappeared, replaced by calmness and determination.

His posture became more upright, like an unshakable mountain.

After two years of diligent study of numerous martial arts techniques, with the help of the Enlightenment Pill, Naruto has completely mastered the knowledge in those secret books.

He waved his hand lightly, and the powerful chakra wave spread out like ripples. He could easily use the six king-level magics of fire, water, earth, wood, ice, and wind, and the power of each element was brought to its full potential.
