Danzo Invited Again

Hearing Danzo's words, Naruto calmly looked at him.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Danzo." His voice was full of magnetism, and there was a gentle smile on his face.

Danzo's goal was nothing more than to let him join Root.

Naruto had learned about it from Minato.

Root's methods of dealing with events were more covert and dirty.

Moreover, Root had always conducted some interesting experiments.

To be honest, compared to Anbu, Root was more suitable for Naruto.

However, Naruto was now on Sandaime's side.

This was the biggest problem.

"Naruto, I believe you also know what I am thinking," Danzo revealed a kind smile as he smiled.

"Root has studied Kekkei Genkai very thoroughly. That place is the most suitable place for you to grow. As long as you become my disciple, not only will I develop your Kekkei Genkai, but I will also give you enough time and space to grow. In Root, you can receive countless difficult tasks and fight with more Jonin."

"The strong are not afraid of challenges. The weak will only curl up in a greenhouse. For you at this stage, step-by-step is the biggest obstacle for you."

Danzo's words completely spoke into Naruto's heart.

If not for worrying about Sandaime, Naruto might have run away with Danzo without saying a word.

He could only pretend to be uninterested and refuse Danzo's invitation. "I'm sorry. At this stage, I still want to stay with my companions."

"You don't have to refuse me in a hurry. Think about it carefully. The root will always be open to you." Danzo, who was rejected again, was not discouraged. He smiled and left with his cane.

Just as he turned around, his expression turned cold.

He would always get what he wanted.

He did not like being rejected!

Looking at Danzo's back as he left, Minato, who was in Naruto's body, whispered, "Danzo is really dangerous, Naruto."

"Dangerous? Tsk, with this old man here, what are you afraid of?" Kyubi collapsed on the chair, revealing his fat belly. He placed his feet on the table, his claws passing through the gaps between his legs. He operated the mouse and keyboard and stared at the computer intently.

"Rather than worrying for Naruto, you might as well prepare to leave here."

"In the future, you have to cooperate with Orochimaru. You have to be careful. Don't be studied ---" Kyubi teased Minato.

Minato looked worried.

After he left, Naruto lost a military advisor who "planned".

Ignoring the conversation between Kyubi and Minato, Naruto revealed a perfect and gentle smile. "Danzo is an interesting person."

Early the next morning, the villagers marched towards the arena.

Next would be the last segment of Chunin's exam, the most shocking and exciting battle.

The sky had just begun to brighten when Anbu Ninja was already standing on the streets.

Naruto shuttled through the big trees between the streets. Every time he tiptoed, he would advance a large distance.

When he arrived at the arena, it was almost crowded.

"Here, Naruto." From far away, Sakura waved at Naruto, her little face full of excitement.

When Naruto approached, Sakura shyly took out her carefully made lunchbox, her little face full of excitement.

Sasuke had not arrived yet, so she should still be cultivating.

When Naruto went out to buy ingredients yesterday, he had seen Jiraiya and Sasuke at the training ground.

According to them, Jiraiya was giving Sasuke assault training.

In this regard, Naruto naturally raised his hands in agreement.

Sasuke's progress was still a little too slow.

Although Jiraiya was not reliable, he was still a good Sensei.

Not long after, everyone was in position, and the last segment of Chunin's exam was about to begin.

Rock Lee came to Naruto's side and cheered him on. "Naruto, you have to win for me."

"I will. Thank you, Lee."

"What a pity. I prepared for so long, but I was eliminated early."

Rock Lee scratched his head and smiled foolishly.

But his smile was full of bitterness.

Originally, he planned to show his efforts in Chunin's exam to make Naruto look at him in a new light.

In the end, he let everyone down and also let himself down.

Naruto saw the anguish in Rock Lee's heart. He gently patted Rock Lee's shoulder and leaned against the railing with Rock Lee. He smiled and said, "Lee, passing the examination or elimination can not deny a person's efforts."

Rock Lee looked up in confusion and said in a low voice, "Sasuke's talent is better than mine, and he is also very hardworking. In just a few months, he surpassed me. If not for Kakashi and Guy, I might be lying in the hospital now."

"Naruto, you said that hard work is my talent, but why can't I see any hope of surpassing Sasuke now?"

Sasuke tried very hard.

But in terms of hard work, he was inferior to Rock Lee.

Rock Lee's hard work was to break through the limits of human endurance.

But even so, the distance between him and Sasuke was already increasing, and he would soon be left in the dust.

"Lee, if you don't work hard, you will realize it immediately." Naruto smiled and looked at the field

The surrounding spectators were all cheering, waiting for the start of the battle.

However, Naruto was unable to integrate into such an atmosphere.

"Taijutsu's cultivation has always been difficult. Even if you put in twice as much effort as others, the results of your gains might not be as good as his opponent's."

"However, the subtle changes in the body and the tempering of the will are all true."

"What you lack is only an opportunity, an opportunity to completely change all of your previous efforts."

Naruto's eyes were deep, as if he had thought of something, revealing a meaningful smile.

"Opportunity...?" Rock Lee's eyes were confused, and he muttered to himself.

"Not bad, an opportunity to be reborn." Naruto's muttering echoed in Rock Lee's mind.

The sun was warm, reflecting a strange and wonderful brilliance.

At that moment, a picture of Sword unconsciously appeared in Rock Lee's mind.

And an idea: "If I have Zanpakutō, can I have the same strength as Naruto?"

After fantasizing, he shook his head, and his heart was even more bitter.

The gap between fantasy and reality was too big.

How could he have Zanpakutō?

What he needed to do now was to work even harder!

"Thank you, Naruto!"

However, Naruto was right. His hard work would definitely be able to change in the future.

"I need you to enlighten me every time. I'm really sorry." Rock Lee scratched his head.

"How could that be? We are close friends." Naruto revealed a meaningful smile and said softly.

"Lee, you have always been supporting me in silence. Of course, I have to help you."

"That's right. No matter what you do in the future, I will help you!"

Rock Lee said firmly.

......

After a small episode, the last segment of Chunin's exam officially began.

In front of everyone, Sandaime walked to a high place in Hokage's robe and began a speech from Will of Fire.

"Where the leaves are dancing, the fire is endless... Again, I announce that Chunin's examination has officially begun!"

The audience was in an uproar and applause.

"The first match, Uzumaki Naruto against Hyuga Neji." As soon as he finished speaking, the cheers of the audience paused for a second, and then began to discuss.

"It's actually Uzumaki Naruto, it's that..."

"He actually participated in Chunin's exam?"

"Why did Sandaime still let him become Ninja? Wouldn't it be too dangerous?"

"Who knows?"

"His opponent is Hyuga Neji. I want to see how badly he will lose."

The villagers had more malice toward Naruto.

Naruto ignored these discussions and moved slightly, using Shunpo to come to the field.

"Damn it, the first match was actually against Naruto." Neji's expression was not good. Just yesterday, he was covered in injuries and barely defeated Naruto. Today, he actually faced the person he did not want to face the most.

He looked at Hinata. The latter looked at Naruto with a face full of admiration, his eyes unable to tolerate others.

Neji sighed and thought in his heart, "Princess, since you want to change the fate of the branch family, then you can't indulge in the love between men and women too early. I will use a victory to tell you that strength is what you should pursue now."

Neji's expression was stern as he walked towards the center of the field.

The atmosphere was not as grim as Neji had imagined.

Naruto, who was facing him, had a warm and pleasant smile. His gaze was even following the dancing butterflies around him as if he did not put him in his eyes at all.

Neji's eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Naruto, you are too arrogant! The current me is different from the past." Neji said coldly.

He still remembered the careless Naruto after defeating him with that blow.

That indifferent gaze of his still made him brood over it.

For countless days and nights, he had carried this shameful training, longing to one day be able to defeat Naruto and wash away his shame.

His strength was the most underestimated. Even if Hinata improved rapidly, he would not be able to catch up to him.

"Uzumaki Naruto!" He raised his voice and attracted Naruto's attention. He said loudly, "I will defeat you regardless of anything!"

"Okay." Naruto nodded warmly.

There was no sarcasm at all. Instead, it gave people a feeling of firm trust.

Neji felt respect for it.

His expression froze, and he suddenly felt a little guilty.

Naruto had always been the sun of everyone, but he was hostile to him.

"Damn it, come on! How could I have such an idea?" He shook his head and pushed this idea to the back of his mind. Then, he put on the stance of Jūken.

Compared to Rock Lee's Taijutsu, Hyuga's Jūken was more like the opposite side, displaying extreme gentleness.

"Come on, Naruto. Don't beat Brother Neji too badly. I still want him to fight with me today." Hinata, who was watching the stage, put his hands together and prayed quietly.

It was just that the content of the prayer was not what Neji wanted to hear.

"Big sister, I finally found you!" Several little brats ran along the small path to Hinata and said in a childish voice, "Big sister, why are your eyes so bright?"

"Big sister, is there anyone you like in there?"

All along, Hinata had always been a domineering and cold image in front of children. When had she ever shown the attitude of a young girl?

"Yes, remember, that blonde is the person I like." Hinata admitted openly.
