#35 - Chapter 35: Sasuke with Nine-Tails Chakra
"You finally made it," Kakashi said, relieved.
Naruto put Pakkun down and said to Kakashi calmly, "The main character always appears last."
"......"
Where did he learn such flirtatious words?
Kakashi looked helpless, feeling that these words should have come from Sasuke.
"Where's Sasuke?"
Due to the dense fog, Naruto's visibility was less than three meters. If it weren't for Pakkun, he wouldn't have been able to find his way here.
"Sasuke is fighting Zabuza's companion. The last time I saw him, he was in that direction," Kakashi said, pointing.
Zabuza was also constantly increasing the density of the surrounding fog during the battle.
This also led to Kakashi being able to see Sasuke before, but now he can't see him at all!
And Zabuza also sensed Naruto's arrival and sneaked into the fog.
Naruto frowned, looking at the surrounding fog that was getting thicker. "Is there any way to dispel this fog, Kakashi?"
Kakashi shook his head. "I don't have any particularly good Wind Release ninjutsu. I'm afraid it won't be effective against this level of dense fog."
"No other way?" Naruto raised an eyebrow. Although he also had a talent for Wind Release ninjutsu, he hadn't learned any Wind Release ninjutsu either.
As for the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit.
He had tried it last time. Although strong light can penetrate the fog, it cannot provide visibility.
In other words, he basically had no way to deal with the dense fog and could only rely on Kakashi.
"There is one!"
Kakashi thought for a while and said, "A ninja can impact the fog by controlling a large amount of chakra to erupt, but I don't have enough chakra."
Although this was a solution, Kakashi believed that no one present could do it to this extent.
Because controlling this level of chakra eruption requires the ninja to have an extremely large amount of chakra, and it also requires the ninja to have superb control over chakra!
Naruto may have enough chakra, but only has chakra control at the level of practicing tree climbing...
Kakashi was still pondering in his heart when a chakra eruption suddenly blew his eyes open!
"This chakra!!"
Kakashi shielded his forehead with his hand, looking at the chakra erupting around Naruto in shock!
This amount of chakra!
This level of chakra control!
Is this really a Genin?
No... with Naruto's strength, he no longer belongs to the category of Genin.
After all, his golden ninjutsu is enough for him to serve as a Jonin in Konoha!
Chakra control is just the icing on the cake!
And Naruto's intelligence...
The reason why dealing with Zabuza this time was so smooth was all thanks to Naruto's plan!
After Naruto returned last night, he told Kakashi that there was a high probability that Zabuza would launch an attack today.
For this reason, Naruto gave two suggestions for modifying the team configuration!
One was to let Sasuke replace Sakura's position in the future and disguise himself as Sakura!
This would not only increase the team's strength but also prevent alerting the enemy!
After all, Sakura's strength is really difficult to play any role in this level of battle.
Kakashi's previous arrangement, in addition to considering the necessity of the two-person configuration, also took into account Sakura's self-esteem.
No matter what, Sakura is also their companion. It would be a bit disrespectful to not let her participate because she disliked her companion's weakness.
It's just that Naruto doesn't think it's necessary... Do as much as your ability allows. Pretending to be capable when you are too weak will only hinder your companions.
So leaving Sakura in the wooden house to protect Tsunami and Inari is the best choice!
The mission Zabuza accepted was to kill Tazuna. Tsunami and Inari are not within Zabuza's assassination range.
Sakura doesn't have to worry about encountering ninja-level opponents either.
As for those samurai who follow Gato, if Sakura can't beat them, then she doesn't need to be a ninja.
The other was to let Pakkun stay on the periphery where he could see the situation on the bridge and immediately go back to find someone to help if he found anything special!
This configuration is much more reliable and safer than Kakashi's previous arrangement!
It's just more tiring for Sasuke!
But there's no way, this position can only be Sasuke!
Not to mention that Naruto hasn't mastered the Transformation Technique yet, even if Naruto knows the Transformation Technique, he can't replace Sasuke.
Because of the possibility of accidents!
Although Tsunami and Inari are not within Zabuza and Haku's assassination targets, in order to prevent accidents, and for Sakura's safety, Naruto and Kakashi must have one stay in the wooden house!
Even if it weakens some of the ambush around Tazuna, it is worth it!
Naruto and Kakashi cannot accept the death of a companion under their arrangement!
"It seems that the erupted chakra is not enough."
Naruto saw that the visibility had only increased by five meters and he didn't see Sasuke, so he started to condense chakra again!
He could sense that he had two types of chakra in his body.
One is the chakra he possesses, according to Kakashi, the amount of chakra he possesses in the normal state is about four times his!
As for the remaining ninety-six times, it is sealed because of suppressing the Nine-Tails!
The other is the Nine-Tails chakra!
These Nine-Tails chakra come from the Nine-Tails, but they are not controlled by the Nine-Tails, but the chakra leaked from it!
As for whether it was leaked unintentionally or intentionally, it is hard to say.
However, Naruto can be sure that these leaked chakra are more than his normal chakra!
"If I only use my own chakra, it should be enough to dispel the nearby mist, right? But... I'm very curious about the power of the Nine-Tails chakra."
Naruto thought, deciding to give up continuing to condense his own blue and white chakra and instead start controlling the part of the Nine-Tails' leaked chakra in his body!
"Ha!"
Naruto gave a low shout, and orange chakra burst out from his body in an instant!
The terrifying chakra shockwave blasted all the surrounding fog away!
"This chakra!!"
Kakashi looked at Naruto, whose teeth and eyes had become sharp, in shock.
This is the power of the Nine-Tails!
This violent chakra, there is no mistake!
Could it be that the seal is loosening?
Or has Naruto mastered the power of the Nine-Tails?
If it is the latter, it is okay, if it is the former...
Kakashi, who thought of this, was already dripping with cold sweat. He was not confident that he could deal with the Nine-Tails alone!
"Kakashi, I can feel the emotions in your chakra. Are you afraid?" Naruto said to Kakashi without turning his head.
"My emotions?!"
Kakashi looked at the Nine-Tails chakra wandering around him and was shocked.
Naruto can actually perceive the emotions of other people's chakra through the Nine-Tails' chakra. What level has his control over chakra reached?
Kakashi couldn't imagine it, but fortunately, Naruto didn't lose his mind, and the Nine-Tails' seal was still intact.
This is finally a good thing.
"Don't worry, no one can control my sanity."
Naruto knew what Kakashi was afraid of, said lightly, and then turned his gaze to an ice house not far away.
"Ice Release?"
Naruto stretched out his finger and was just about to fire a laser beam, but he couldn't completely see the internal situation from the outside.
Attacking rashly might kill Sasuke.
So he had to cancel the laser again and changed his hands to embrace a circle, "Yata Mirror!"
The golden light bounced between the water stains and instantly penetrated the inside of the ice house not far away.
At this time, inside the ice house,
Sasuke was confronting Haku.
Because he turned on the two-tomoe Sharingan in advance and there was no burden, Sasuke is now only slightly at a disadvantage.
However, he has a lot of cuts on his body, but Haku is unscathed, looking a little embarrassed.
"Sasuke, it seems that your situation is not very good," a golden light hit Sasuke's side, turning into Naruto's appearance, and said lightly.
"I can solve him without you," Sasuke glanced at Naruto, expressionless.
"Then do you want me to leave this guy to you?" Naruto asked.
"Leave it to me!" Sasuke said seriously.
Naruto glanced at the several senbon on Sasuke's body, hesitated for a moment, and still returned the battlefield to Sasuke.
Just like Sasuke said, he doesn't want to always stand behind him.
If you want to rely on yourself, you will have to fight between life and death!
Naruto will not deprive Sasuke of the opportunity to grow!
"Then be careful."
After saying that, Naruto turned into golden light and returned to Kakashi's side.
Kakashi was a little puzzled when he saw that Naruto didn't solve the battle and rescue Sasuke, "Sasuke he?"
"He intends to solve it himself, we only need to solve Zabuza," Naruto said lightly.
"Is that so," Kakashi murmured.
Out of trust in his companion, Kakashi doesn't intend to stop Sasuke.
But he still has to pay attention a little, in case Sasuke crashes.
