#4 - Chapter 4: First use of fruit power to steal the sealed book
“Laser.”
Naruto stared at the laser in his hand, his heart filled with turmoil.
Just a day ago, he was living in a modern world that valued science, but now he could control this supernatural power!
It was absolutely impossible for him to have no emotional fluctuations in his heart.
However, it was only a brief fluctuation, and he quickly calmed down.
After living on Blue Star for decades, his character had long been tempered by the cruel society to the point of being as calm as still water!
A mere superpower... a mere Glint-Glint Fruit... that's all...
Taking a deep breath and completely calming his heart, Naruto began to familiarize himself with the abilities that Borsalino possessed in his memory.
Laser shooting, light-speed kick, Ama no Murakumo, Yata no Kagami, Yasakani no Magatama...
The max-level Glint-Glint Fruit allowed Naruto to use these abilities without any difficulty. All the moves were as familiar as if Naruto had practiced them for countless years!
After all the commotion, the house was a complete mess.
“If Mizuki sees this, he will definitely be suspicious, right?”
Naruto looked at the holes he had created with the Glint-Glint Fruit, feeling a little troubled, but he quickly came up with a solution.
Collapse the house!
As long as Mizuki doesn't move the house and can't see the inside, he will only think that he was just playing a prank!
How could I,漩涡 Naruto, who dares to graffiti on the Hokage Rock, not dare to knock down a house?
Thinking like this, Naruto aimed a laser beam at the load-bearing pillar of the house!
At this time, Mizuki, who was outside the wooden house, was already waiting anxiously.
He heard the sound of demolition coming from the wooden house and was wondering whether to open the doors and windows to see what Naruto was doing inside,
when he heard a loud bang—the house collapsed!
Then he saw Naruto crawling out from under the wooden house, covered in dust.
“Mizuki-sensei? Why are you back?”
“The house collapsed on its own, and I was almost crushed to death!”
“Come and pull me out!”
“......”
The house collapsed on its own?
Did you think I didn't hear the crackling sounds you were making in the house?
Although he cursed Naruto in his heart, his body was still very honest in saving Naruto.
This was the first step of the plan. Without Naruto, all his plans for today would be in vain!
“I forgot something and was just about to come back and get it...” While saving Naruto, Mizuki did not forget to find a reason for his appearance here.
However, Naruto had already guessed that he had not left and was not surprised at all.
The reason for asking this question was just to fit the situation.
“Thank you, Mizuki-sensei.”
Naruto said thank you, but his face was expressionless.
Obviously insincere!
Mizuki took a deep breath and squeezed out a smile: “It's good that you're okay. You don't have to worry about the house. Anyway, I don't usually live here.”
“Oh, I didn't care anyway. I can't afford to pay for it anyway.”
“......”
Mizuki's mouth twitched, and he suppressed his anger and said, “Since you're okay, hurry up and get the Book of Seals. Once it's dawn, you won't have a chance!”
“I know that without you telling me!”
Naruto patted the dust off his body and said lightly.
Then he slowly walked towards the center of Konoha!
Mizuki looked at Naruto's back, a sinister look flashing in his eyes.
“Is this demon fox going to play any more tricks?”
A little worried, Mizuki quietly followed Naruto.
Fortunately, Naruto did not come up with any new tricks, but went straight to the center of Konoha and entered the Hokage Residence!
Just watching Naruto walk into this heavily guarded place in such a grand manner, Mizuki was a little suspicious whether he had chosen the wrong person for the plan!
After waiting for a while, there was no movement inside, which made him even more nervous.
“Could it be the shift change? There are no guards inside? Or has this demon fox been caught?”
Mizuki was a little confused, but he didn't dare to go in to check.
If Naruto was caught and confessed himself, as long as he didn't admit it, nothing would happen.
But if he followed in and was caught, then he would have no way to defend himself!
At this time, he had no reason to appear here.
Even if he said that he was following Naruto and suspected that Naruto was plotting something wrong, it would be difficult to be convincing.
The Anbu would not easily believe what he said.
If he was tortured, he would definitely not be able to withstand it!
......
At this time, inside the Hokage Residence,
Naruto was carefully walking through the corridor, trying to find the place where the Book of Seals was stored.
However, the interior of the Hokage Residence was still too big. Naruto searched two floors and could not find a place where the Book of Seals could be stored.
“Materials room, training room, recreation room... library?”
“Should it be here?”
Naruto looked around, and it didn't seem like there was anyone guarding it at all.
He didn't know whether the security here was really lax, or whether Hiruzen Sarutobi deliberately let him in.
But neither of them mattered. As long as he could get the Book of Seals, that was enough.
Pushing open the door,
there were actually candles burning inside, illuminating the room!
Obviously someone was here just now!
He just didn't know where this person was now.
Naruto vigilantly looked at every corner of the room, but did not see anyone else.
Maybe Hiruzen Sarutobi was here and went to the toilet?
Such a coincidental thing was really unbelievable, but it didn't matter anymore!
Where is the Book of Seals?
Naruto looked at the bookshelves and found that there was a relatively large scroll on the bookshelf directly opposite, with the word 'seal' written on it!
“Are you not even pretending anymore?”
The corner of Naruto's mouth also twitched.
Afraid that he would be discovered by the Anbu, so he withdrew the Anbu.
Afraid that the house was too dark for him to see clearly, so he lit up the lights in advance.
Afraid that he couldn't find it, so he put the scroll in the most conspicuous place in the room!
Only the original Naruto was too simple-minded, otherwise he would have seen the abnormality at a glance.
“Actually, I'm not simple-minded either.”
He muttered, and with a leap, he took down the scroll with the word 'seal' written on it.
Although he did not inherit the original Naruto's memory, he inherited his physical fitness.
In addition to the system's double the quality bonus, he was now no different from a little superman!
“Easy peasy, let's go!”
With the scroll on his back, Naruto pushed open the door and was about to run.
But he hadn't run a few steps when he met Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was already waiting here.
“Naruto, what are you doing here?”
“......”
Naruto looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi in front of him and hesitated.
The original Naruto relied on the Sexy Technique to defeat Hiruzen Sarutobi and take the opportunity to escape. He now had two choices.
One was to use the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit to try to defeat Hiruzen Sarutobi and escape.
The other was to use the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit to escape directly!
Naruto's eyes turned and decided to test it out in moderation.
If Hiruzen Sarutobi was acting, then he would fall for even the clumsiest trick!
And if not... he didn't believe that Hiruzen Sarutobi could catch up with the speed of light!
He looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi's back and pretended to be surprised: “Huh? Iruka-sensei? Why are you here too?”
“Iruka?”
Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi turn his head, Naruto knew that he had guessed correctly!
He was indeed acting!
It was just to happen to meet him stealing the Book of Seals, then let him leave, and then send someone to catch him.
He didn't know whether Hiruzen Sarutobi was doing this to use a ruse to lure out Mizuki, or deliberately let him steal the Book of Seals.
But Naruto knew that the opportunity—was fleeting!
If he didn't run now, Hiruzen Sarutobi would probably not be able to continue acting!
“Yata no Kagami!”
Using the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit, Naruto disappeared from the Hokage Residence in an instant.
When Hiruzen Sarutobi turned his head, he found that he had long since disappeared!
“He runs really fast!”
The Book of Seals was lost, but Hiruzen Sarutobi was not only not worried, but even had the mood to joke.
However, he did not see Naruto use the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit, otherwise it would be difficult to be as calm as he was now.
