Chapter 69: Little Fanboy, Sarutobi Konohamaru

After returning home, Naruto opened the system mall impatiently. After several years of accumulation, the mall points have reached millions, which is an extremely terrifying number.

This time, Naruto decided to give each of his friends a devil fruit, so that everyone's strength could be raised to a higher level before the Chunin Exam. However, he was puzzled as to what kind of fruit he should give to everyone.

After careful selection, we finally selected the following:

Sasuke, Lightning Fruit - Lightning attribute attack increased by 100% (PS I will make some slight changes to the name and function here, so readers don't have to worry about it)

Sakura, the fruit of power - Increases strength a hundredfold

Shikamaru, Shadow Fruit - can control his own shadow to attack alone (here he cannot seize other shadows like in One Piece)

Choji, Giant Fruit - can make the body gigantic (up to 10 times its own size), increase defense by 10 times, increase strength by 10 times (multiples after gigantism)

The tooth is, the Wolf Fruit Beast - turns into a giant wolf about 10 meters long, increases speed by 10 times, and increases attack by 10 times

Ino, Ghost Fruit - can differentiate into multiple ghosts, these ghosts not only have attack power, can directly attack the enemy, but also have explosive properties. In addition, ghosts can slightly affect the opponent's mind. Take the opportunity to possess humans in a weak state, thereby controlling their actions and thoughts. However, they can be hit with ninjutsu, and fire and lightning will receive double damage. Immune to physical attacks.

Hinata, the Fruit of Defense - Increases defense by a hundred times

Shino, Beast Taming Fruit - Once the master signs a contract with the beast, the spiritual compatibility between the two will be greatly improved. The higher the compatibility, the stronger the attack power, and the body and mind of the contracted beast can be united. At least the beast's attack is increased tenfold.

Finally, Naruto picked out a yellow-level top-grade martial art "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing" for Hinata in the mall.

After selecting the fruits, Naruto felt a headache. Even though there were many kinds of fruits in the mall, many of them still didn't fit the ninjutsu they were using. Finally, after half an hour of careful selection, Naruto temporarily selected these few. After Naruto finished selecting, he bought eight more tree essences. Finally, he fell asleep on the bed.

The next day, Naruto was awakened by a series of rapid knocks on the door while he was still asleep.

"Bang bang bang, bang bang bang"

Naruto mumbled in a daze, "Who is it, so early in the morning?" He rubbed his sleepy eyes, climbed out of the bed reluctantly, and walked slowly towards the door with heavy steps.

When I opened the door, I saw Konohamaru standing outside.

Konohamaru's face was full of excitement, and he shouted loudly: "Brother Naruto, come with me quickly, a group of ninjas from the Land of Sand have come to the village."

Naruto suddenly sobered up a little and said, "Ninja from the Land of Sand? It looks like the Chunin Exam is about to begin."

Konohamaru said anxiously: "Brother Naruto, everyone has gone to see it, let's go quickly too."

Naruto nodded and ran towards where the crowd was gathered with Konohamaru.

After arriving at the village square, I saw a group of ninjas from the Land of Sand standing there, talking with the Hokage and several jonin. Their costumes were unique and full of desert characteristics.

Naruto looked carefully at these ninjas from the Sand Country, as if they were looking for something.

At this time, a ninja with a face covered in oil paint, wearing a ninja suit with black and red as the main colors, and carrying a puppet on his back turned around and his eyes met Naruto's, his eyes full of scrutiny.

Naruto was not afraid, he straightened his back with determination in his eyes.

Konohamaru next to him whispered, "Brother Naruto, I think they are so powerful."

Naruto patted Konohamaru's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Konohamaru. Just wait and see how I teach them a lesson."

Konohamaru opened his eyes wide and said expectantly: "Brother Naruto, you must do your best!"

Naruto smiled confidently: "Don't worry, they are just a bunch of rabble!"

At this time, the ninja seemed unable to hold back and walked straight towards Naruto.

At this time, Konohamaru was frightened. His face turned pale as paper, and his body began to tremble involuntarily, like a sieve. His eyes were wide open, full of fear. He tightly grasped the corner of Naruto's clothes, his palms were full of sweat, and his voice was obviously trembling: "Brother Naruto, what should we do? He is coming towards us."

Naruto, however, looked calm. He gently patted Konohamaru's hand and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, Konohamaru, I'm here."

The ninja from the Land of Sand stopped in front of Naruto, still looking at him sharply. Naruto looked at him without fear.

The ninja spoke up, "Kid, you've been staring at me since a while ago. Do you have something against me?"

Naruto raised the corners of his mouth slightly and replied, "Because I want to see what's so special about the ninjas from the Land of Sand."

The ninja snorted coldly: "Humph, arrogant boy, do you know how powerful our Sand Country ninjas are?"

Naruto crossed his arms over his chest and said confidently, "How do you know if you don't try?"

At this moment, the atmosphere around them suddenly became tense. Konohamaru hid behind Naruto, biting his lips nervously, leaving shallow marks on his lips with his teeth.

Just then, a figure came from a distance: "Kankuro, stop making trouble."

Naruto turned his head and looked at the people who came. He saw one of them was thin and pale. Under his short red hair was a cold and ruthless face, with dark circles around his empty eyes. The word "love" was eye-catching on his forehead, and he was carrying a huge gourd on his back. Naruto was immediately delighted: "The national treasure gourd baby - Gaara, has finally appeared."

When Kankuro saw the person coming, he immediately shut his mouth and walked to his side obediently like a child who had made a mistake.

Temari, who was standing next to Gaara, looked at the handsome and elegant Naruto and was surprised: "Is there such a handsome guy in Konoha Village?"

"What's your name?" Gaara asked.

Naruto smiled and replied, "Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto."

"Uzumaki Naruto? I'll remember you." Then Gaara left with Temari and Kankuro without looking back.

After leaving, Kankuro turned around and made a gesture of wiping his neck towards Naruto.

Seeing this scene, Naruto sneered, his eyes full of contempt.

Naruto looked at the backs of Gaara and others as they left, and couldn't help shaking his head, sighing in his heart: This kid is also a miserable child. Now let me save your young and wounded heart.

Konohamaru poked his head out from behind Naruto and said, "Naruto-nii, they look so fierce. You have to be careful during the Chunin Exam."

Naruto gently touched Konohamaru's head and said, "Konohamaru, I'm not bragging to you. I can crush the characters like this one to death with one hand."

Konohamaru widened his eyes and looked at Naruto with admiration: "Brother Naruto, are you really that powerful?"

Naruto smiled confidently: "Of course, just wait for my wonderful performance in the Chunin Exam."

After that, Naruto took Konohamaru for a leisurely stroll in the village for a whole day, and even cooked a delicious meal himself. Naruto really liked this little follower. Not to mention that he was the grandson of the third generation, just because of Konohamaru's cleverness and his full admiration for him, Naruto was willing to treat him well from the bottom of his heart.
