Chapter 33: New Clothes
With Rock Lee's shout, an even more powerful force burst forth, but his body was also on the verge of its limit, veins bulging and skin even showing slight signs of bleeding.
"Ah..."
The opening of the Fifth Gate didn't last too long. Rock Lee fell down powerless, panting heavily and looking up at the sky with a slight smile on his face, "I finally did it, Guy Sensei, I finally opened the Fifth Gate."
"You are indeed my student, this is our youth!!"
"Guy Sensei!!"
....
Naruto watched the two of them excitedly hugging each other, and a smile appeared on his face again. An interesting idea gradually rose in his heart.
What if...
I use the blue wind elemental power to simulate the strong wind that bursts out when the Eight Gates are opened, strengthen my body with elemental power, pretend to open the Eight Gates myself, and have a match with these two guys?
Fake Eight Inner Gates
However, this idea was quickly denied by Naruto. Because he is now being closely watched by the Anbu, many people are watching him behind his back. If there is a rumor that Naruto can use the Eight Gates at this time... The Third Hokage might get nervous and there might be some reaction. That's not good.
But sooner or later I will have to try it!
Just thinking about it feels interesting~
...
In the afternoon, Konoha Village Street, Clothing Store
"Where are my clothes?"
Naruto asked directly as he entered the store.
"They're ready. Please have a look."
The shopkeeper hurriedly brought out the clothes that were already made from the back room. The style was exactly what Naruto had requested.
It's a taste of fear and hatred...
"Is that so?"
Naruto touched the fabric and then slowly raised his head. With a slight smile on his corner of his mouth, he said: "I advise you to check again. You didn't get the wrong clothes, did you?"
"Hehe...hehe..."
The shopkeeper laughed dryly and said: "Then I'll check again. I might be a bit negligent when working. If there's a problem, I'll definitely correct it actively."
...
Ten minutes later, Naruto walked out of the store in his new clothes. He casually threw a wad of banknotes behind him and left without looking back.
He paid for it. Whether the shopkeeper wants it or not is his own business. As long as he has a clear conscience.
After changing into new clothes, Naruto's ability to attract attention on the street obviously increased significantly. Even many people showed astonished looks. The invisible malice even dissipated a lot, especially among some women.
Naruto's new outfit is quite unique. The top is a combination of a suit and a robe. The upper half is similar to a tailcoat, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist forming an inverted triangle shape. The large black collar is edged with grey patterns, adorned with diamond-shaped jewelry.
The long sleeves transition to an orange color, with dark patterns printed on the rounded cuffs. A square pattern secures the cuff corners. Near the shoulders, grey-black-brown patches resembling armor are decorated with dark gold edges, like shoulder pads further enhancing the shoulder width and adjusting the overall aesthetic sense, giving it a sense of unity.
The lower half is similar to armor, with white tassels hanging at the end of the front piece. The hem of the garment, like a skirt armor, extends to the calf and is diagonally cut into four pieces. This design not only facilitates movement but also enhances the aura, decorated with dark gold dragon patterns to highlight a regal demeanor.
Walking down the street, Naruto stands tall and walks with steady and powerful steps. He feels as if he has received some special blessing after putting on this outfit, experiencing a sense of inner peace and strength.
"It looks pretty good, but it's a pity that you're still too young for this style of clothing," Nine-Tails commented in the sealed space.
"None of your business, I like it,"
Naruto retorted directly.
He just likes this style of clothing. He feels like he has the same aura as his father when he puts it on. Whether it suits him or not is not important. The main thing is that wearing it makes him feel comfortable, and it looks pretty good.
In fact, Naruto had specifically practiced controlling rock elemental power in the Teyvat world for a long time. Unfortunately, he didn't have the talent for training rock elements, so he didn't achieve much in the end.
Although he doesn't have talent, he has spent a lot of time and effort trying to train hard. So occasionally using rock elemental power to bully slimes is no problem. It's obviously stronger than when using other attribute powers.
In the ninja world, his control level of rock elements should be able to reach the level of A-rank ninjutsu.
"Let's go tidy up my hairstyle next."
...
Unlike before, this time after the ninja school exam ended, it took a full week and a half to start class division. Naruto was likely to be mainly responsible for this. It was okay for other students to be divided into classes. The main thing was that they really didn't know how to divide him well.
The Third Hokage heard that he had a good relationship with Ino and even thought about breaking up Team 10 (Ino-Shika-Cho). But this idea was not very realistic and unlikely to be put into practice. Not to mention the opinions of the three families of Ino-Shika-Cho, just this behavior's intention is too obvious, like actively licking Naruto.
This is not good!
Regarding Naruto's team division plan, the Third Hokage thought for a long time and made many selections but also scrapped many plans. Not only that, but Naruto's choice of guiding Jonin must also be careful. This person must be strong and have some relationship with Naruto. It would be best if they could establish bonds and become locks that restrict Naruto at critical moments.
"Click."
Naruto, who had changed his appearance, opened the classroom door and walked into the classroom with steady and powerful steps. The classroom that was slightly noisy due to class division instantly quieted down. Many students' eyes were focused on Naruto.
They looked at this golden-haired handsome boy with special clothes and couldn't remember who he was no matter how they thought about it. They didn't even know there was such a person in their class.
"Who is he? Do you guys know?"
"I don't know... but... he's so handsome!"
"It would be great if I could be in his team~"
...
In the classroom, Hinata had the best facial expression management and was least shocked...
There's no other reason, Naruto has always had a handsome effect in Hinata's eyes. And now he's just become a little more handsome than before, this subtle change doesn't make any difference to her.
It's just like Naruto!
On the other side, Ino looked at this boy walking towards that familiar position and couldn't help exclaiming. This guy has blond hair and his position is very familiar... Could it be... Is he Naruto? Was Naruto originally so handsome? Does clothing and hairstyle have such a big impact?
Finally...
Sakura watched as Naruto gradually approached her, her face began to turn red involuntarily. Because Naruto had failed the exam before (because he was the only one who didn't pass), Sakura naturally didn't realize that this guy was Naruto.
Ah! He's coming over! He's coming over!
He sat next to me!
Why? Why does he want to sit here?
Could it be... does he like me?
Ah, love at first sight!?
