The reason why Kimimaro was easily able to find Naruto in the huge Konohagakure was because he was guided by Nine Tails.

As the strongest of the nine tailed beasts, Kurama was originally a lawless existence, but as a result, he was forcibly divided into two halves.

Not to mention how upset it was after that.

Nine tails have been planning to reunite with his other half and become a full Kurama again.

Therefore, as soon as Kimimaro arrived at Konoha, he became active, and kept bewitching him to find Naruto, defeat him, and take away the other half of the nine tails.

Kimimaro's eyes flashed, and he was about to walk towards Naruto when Haku and Karin's shout came from behind.

"Wait!"

The two of them were worried about Kimimaro, so they didn't follow his instructions, but followed him instead.

"Kimimaro, have you forgotten that we are teammates? Don't think about leaving us and act alone. No matter what danger or difficulty there is, we will face it with you."

Haku walked in front of Kimimaro and said stubbornly.

Karin also nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, with a serious look on her face.

"All right."

Kimimaro had no choice but to agree reluctantly. But he also emphasized that the next thing is his personal affairs, he hopes to handle it himself, and the two shouldn't try to interfere.

At the same time.

Just as Naruto said that he wanted to get back at Sasuke, a fat brown-haired kid beside him quickly said: "I know where Sasuke is, he is at the No. 3 training ground every day at this time, he will be practicing ninjutsu together with his brother Itachi Uchiha!"

"Uh" when Naruto heard that, his expression froze, and he was now in a situation similar to that of riding a tiger.

"Chozi, can you shut up and focus on your potato chips."

Beside him, the small-eyed boy Nara Shikamaru held his forehead, feeling helpless for his friend's low emotional intelligence.

"Naruto, why did your face suddenly become so ugly, you can't be afraid, right?" Yamanaka Ino asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Naruto jumped up on the spot, as if he had been stepped on his tail, and shouted:

"Who said I'm afraid? Today I'll knock that Teme to the ground in front of you, so that you can see the true strength of the Son of Prophecy!"

After speaking, he spit out two hot air from his nose, clenched his fists with a "murderous" expression, and walked towards the training ground.

"Yeah, there's a good show to watch!" Ino having succeeded, clapped her hands happily, and pulled Choji to catch up with Naruto.

"Ah, troublesome." Shikamaru sighed, put his hands in his pockets lazily, and followed.

Not far away, the three saw this scene.

"Is that guy the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Naruto Uzumaki, from Konohagakure?"

Haku was taken aback, and finally understood why Kimimaro suddenly lost his composure and made rash actions.

"Is that yellow-haired guy from Naruto Uzumaki from my clan?" Karin looked at Naruto's back and muttered, feeling intense curiosity about this son of prophecy.

So, a group of three followed Naruto and the others all the way, through the streets of Konoha, and finally came to the No. 3 training ground outside the village.

"Naruto."

Nara Shikamaru, who was at the back, suddenly took two quick steps forward and patted Naruto on the shoulder.

"Shikamaru, do you want to persuade me not to be impulsive? You should give up. I, Naruto Uzumaki, must defeat that Teme, Uchiha Sasuke today, so that you can see who is the real genius."

Naruto said confidently.

"I did not mean that"

Shikamaru was a little speechless, and pointed at the back, "What I want to say is that these three people have been following us since the beginning."

'Oh?'

Hearing Shikamaru's words, Naruto, Ino, and Choji turned their heads together, and sure enough, they saw three strange kids, following them from a distance.

"Have you seen these guys before?" Ino frowned and stabbed Choji next to her with her elbow, but the latter just kept stuffing potato chips into his mouth.

"That's why I remind you that these guys are very suspicious. They don't seem to be from the village." Shikamaru narrowed his eyes and said solemnly.

"I see!"

Naruto's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said confidently, "These guys must be my fans. They want to ask me to sign an autograph. This is not the first time I have encountered this kind of thing. Oh, it's really annoying, you wait here. I'll send them off."

"....."

When Shikamaru and Ino heard this, they couldn't help rolling their eyes.

It's true that Naruto was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he has attracted a lot of attention since he was a child, but he sometimes goes too far, making people want to beat him up.

However, just as Naruto was about to walk towards the three of them, a violent explosion suddenly came from the training ground behind him.

'Bang.'

With a loud bang, accompanied by flames and thick smoke, a black-haired teenager flew over under the impact of the explosion and crashed into the barbed wire fence of the training ground.

It's Sasuke.

Seeing this, Naruto and the others hurried over.

Uchiha Itachi appeared from the thick smoke, walked slowly to Sasuke, and asked:

"Sasuke, you are careless again, you didn't even dodge such a simple attack. Are you injured, can you continue?"

"Brother, I'm fine."

Sasuke gritted his teeth, broke free from the shackles of the barbed wire, and stood up again.

He always wanted to be like his older brother, graduating early from the ninja school and entering the glorious Anbu. So Sasuke always worked harder than his peers, and asked his brother to give him a series of special training mercilessly.

If it was usual, Itachi would not be soft-hearted towards his younger brother, but at this time he glanced behind Sasuke and shook his head:

"It's getting late, let's end it here for the time being today, your friends are here."

'Friend?'

Hearing this, Sasuke turned his head in surprise, only to see Naruto's big face.

"Why are you here?" Sasuke frowned with disgust.

Naruto's mother, Uzumaki Kushina, was a best friend with Sasuke's mother Uchiha Mikoto before her death. In addition, the two were pregnant and had children almost at the same time, so Sasuke and Naruto often played together when they were children.

It's a pity that the two people's personalities don't get along very well, and every time they meet, they inevitably argue and even fight.

"Teme, I'm here to take revenge! Today I will beat you up!"

Naruto shouted loudly, and while shouting, he waved his fist viciously, looking strong.

However, in the face of Naruto's provocation, Sasuke's response was very cold. He folded his arms and said, "I'm not interested in fighting you. You are too weak."

"Damn bastard, how dare you look down on me!"

When Naruto heard Sasuke say this, he suddenly raised his fist and used all his strength to hit Sasuke in the face.

"Humph."

Sasuke snorted disdainfully, and with a flick to the side, he dodged Naruto's punch.

Then, he stretched out another leg and easily tripped Naruto, causing the latter to drop on the spot.

"Wow, Sasuke-kun is so handsome!" Ino screamed, her eyes full of stars.

"Fan girls." Shikamaru shook his head and whispered.

The three of them also showed surprised expressions when they saw that Naruto was tripped by Sasuke.

"Is that guy really Naruto Uzumaki? His father is the Yellow Flash Namikaze Minato, his mother is the previous Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and he himself is the legendary son of prophecy, but why is he so weak?"

Haku murmured, thinking that Naruto was incredibly useless.

He knew that Kimimaro's goal had always been to defeat Naruto Uzumaki and prove himself. But now it seems that this Uzumaki Naruto is not worthy of Kimimaro's attention at all.

Haku even felt that Naruto might not even be able to beat Karin.

'Could it be that this guy is so weak because he was pampered since he was a child and didn't practice hard?'

"Impossible, absolutely impossible."

Kimimaro stared at Naruto and said decisively, "This guy must be disguising and deliberately hiding his strength."

He frowned and waited for Naruto to stand up, and use his true skills to launch a counterattack against his opponent.

The next development of the matter seems to be as expected by Kimimaro.

"Too deceiving!"

Naruto Uzumaki slammed the ground with his fist, stood up angrily, and said to Sasuke, "You forced me to use all my strength. The next move I will use is taught to me by my father. But it's too dangerous, even I can't control its power. So, be careful yourself!"

As soon as the voice fell, Naruto shifted his body weight down, took a posture, and then stretched out his right hand with his fingers spread out.

Then, under Sasuke's puzzled eyes, Naruto placed his left hand on top of his right hand, and then shook it quickly, as if he was kneading dough.

"What are you doing?"

Sasuke couldn't help laughing, thinking that Naruto was joking on purpose, but soon, he couldn't laugh anymore.

'Buzz.'

As Naruto's hands rubbed quickly, a large amount of chakra poured out of his body. After high-intensity compression, it condensed in his palm and gradually formed a ball.

Everyone present could feel that the Chakra ball contained terrifying energy.

"This technique, is it the Rasengan of Hokage-sama?" Even Uchiha Itachi on the side was surprised, but Naruto actually learned this trick.

'Rasengan?'

When Sasuke heard that, he finally became extremely solemn, and he thought quickly in his mind, how to take this move.

As a result, the next second, the accident happened again.

Naruto suddenly his face changed, and he shouted in a hurry: "Steady, must be steady, don't blow up this time"

Before he finished speaking, the Rasengan in his hand swelled like a balloon that had been filled up. There were countless forces rampaging through it, causing it to change into various irregular shapes.

In the end, the "Rasengan" could no longer be maintained, so it suddenly exploded with a bang.

"What!"

Sasuke was stunned, as Naruto let out a scream, as he was blasted out by his own Rasengan, and fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.

"Hey, Naruto! Are you alright, don't be brave if you don't have the ability."

Nara Shikamaru came back to his senses, walked over quickly, and helped the wailing Naruto up.

Fortunately, although Naruto disgraced himself, he was a rough-skinned Uzumaki after all, and it was no big deal if he was blown up and flew out.

Sasuke shook his head again, turned to Uchiha Itachi and said, "Brother, let's go home."

At this time.

"Uzumaki Naruto!"

A loud shout suddenly came from outside the training ground. Then, Kimimaro's figure flashed, and he appeared in front of Naruto.

'Such a fast movement.'

Sasuke originally planned to leave, but seeing this scene, his pupils shrank and he stopped.

'Who is this boy with long white hair?'

Like him, the others were also shocked.

"Uzumaki Naruto, did you do it on purpose? Why did you deliberately hide your strength?" Kimimaro looked straight at Naruto and asked in a deep voice.

"What did you say?" Naruto was confused.

"Stop pretending."

Kimimaro's eyes flashed, as even when he punched Naruto's stomach, Naruto couldn't dodge at all, he just stood up and fell down.

"Are you wearing weight bands?"

Kimimaro frowned as he grabbed Naruto's collar, and lifted the latter from the ground.

"Let go of me, teme!" Naruto shouted, struggling with his hands and feet.

"Let him go!" Shikamaru, Ino, and Choji instantly surrounded Kimimaro and warned him.

Kimimaro's response was

'Bang bang bang!'

He flashed forward and returned to the same place, while the three flew backwards and fell to the ground.

The three were knocked down at the same time in an instant.

"You, who are you?" Naruto swallowed his saliva and asked, feeling a little scared.

"You have disappointed me too much, Naruto Uzumaki. It turns out that you are really an ignorant guy. The so-called Son of Prophecy is a joke."

Kimimaro said coldly, with a look of disappointment on his face, and asked himself, "Is it possible that I have been practicing assiduously, day and night, selflessly, to defeat this idiot?"

"Kimimaro, this is a good opportunity, kill him."

Kurama's voice resounded in Kimimaro's heart at the right time. It impatiently urged the white-haired boy to kill Naruto, "As long as you take back my other half of chakra, you can become a perfect Jinchuriki, and sooner or later you will be invincible in the entire ninja world!"

Under the bewitchment of the nine tails, Kimimaro was distracted for a moment.

'Suiii!'

At this moment, a kunai swiped Kimimaro's cheek and flew over, leaving a bloodstain on his face.

"Let go of that guy."

Uchiha Sasuke came over and said coolly, "Otherwise I will kill you."

"Who are you?"

While responding, Kimimaro threw Naruto aside like he is throwing garbage, and said to Sasuke, "However the person behind you is someone that I know, he is Uchiha Itachi, the genius of the Uchiha clan. He is qualified to be my opponent, as for you, you can step aside."

"Arrogant!"

Hearing this, Sasuke was instantly enraged by Kimimaro's arrogance, and rushed towards the latter.

Next second.

'Boom!'

At an even faster speed, he was knocked back by Kimimaro's punch, and fell at Itachi's feet.
