Chapter 30: Ninja School Exam - Mizuki

Not long after...

"Have you ever thought about taking a spontaneous trip? If you're always confined to one place, your perspective can become narrow. My name is Oda Suguha. If you want to go out and play, I can provide some help," Oda Suguha said with a gentle smile.

There's no obvious fluctuation of good or evil...

As a spy from the Land of Earth in Konoha, she couldn't possibly trust the Jinchuriki of Konoha so easily. Naruto knew this better than anyone.

If he really agreed, what would probably greet him was not a trusting escort, but a fully armed private escort.

"Forget it, just give me a discount in the future. I quite like eating meat. I might become a regular here," Naruto said before turning around and walking to a secluded spot to wait for his meal.

Inside the seal 

"Why do you know she's a spy from the Land of Earth? Do you have any reasons or evidence?" Nine-Tails asked with its chin propped up in confusion.

"There's not much evidence."

Naruto answered without hesitation.

"Huh?" Nine-Tails was even more confused

"But the good and evil of ordinary people absolutely cannot be so indifferent. Only those who have been trained can achieve this. The reason I guessed she is a spy from the Land of Earth is because she said she came from Taki Village which is located between Konoha and the Land of Earth."

Naruto paused slightly, looking at Nine-Tails who was sitting cross-legged and continued: "If a spy from the Land of Earth went to Taki Village to develop, changed their name and learned the lifestyle of Taki Village, then coming to Konoha would actually be the simplest route."

"Even if someone talked to her about Taki Village, she could probably answer back, just like a real local from Taki Village. Only when they can achieve this level can they be considered a qualified spy. Those who are easily discovered are just cannon fodder to deceive others."

...

After a simple meal, Naruto left the barbecue shop. Although he didn't look back, he could clearly feel that someone was watching him, and this feeling was different from the Third Hokage's peeping.

This feeling... I remember it...

When Naruto got home, that feeling of being watched disappeared. It's highly likely that Oda Suguha wanted to confirm whether her identity had been exposed or not but didn't dare to look too much. It could also be that her chakra was insufficient and she couldn't keep an eye on him for long.

"Kurama, how's your training going?"

Naruto asked in the seal space.

"It's good, but the speed of improvement is not fast."

Nine-Tails answered.

Under normal circumstances, the strength of Tailed Beasts is predetermined at birth and cannot be improved but can be reduced due to special reasons. However, Nine-Tails is different. He had consulted with a top elemental creature in Teyvat World who could shake mountains and rivers and learned the method of transformation cultivation.

"Although time is undoubtedly a positive variable for us, we cannot know which will come first tomorrow or an accident before our strength reaches a high enough level," Naruto said calmly.

The combination of Naruto and Nine-Tails is already very strong in the current ninja world, few people can confront them. But this does not mean they are invincible. If they encounter an emergency situation where Konoha's high-level officials determine that they are uncontrollable variables and must be killed at all costs, they might also be killed.

Who knows if Konoha has any strange techniques hidden behind their backs or people with special abilities? If they were caught off guard, it would be bad.

It's precisely because of caution that Naruto has never shown his true strength from beginning to end. He has always been fighting and bursting with Nine-Tails' power in order to control Konoha's high-level fear of him well.

All of Naruto's actions have one aim, to protect himself well and then make his life better.

He just wants to live well and then take back everything that belongs to him.

...

The next day at Ninja School

"The subject for the graduation exam is Clone Technique."

Iruka said as he looked at Naruto in the classroom.

Clone Technique...

Naruto's face didn't look too good. His chakra attribute problem hadn't been solved yet. Once he used Clone Technique, what would ultimately form would be a special Wind Elemental Clone. It would be strong enough but using such an intense ninjutsu would inevitably make Konoha's high-level officials wary.

So...

"Bang!"

A puff of white smoke appeared, then exploded, and the invisible waves of wind gently rose.

"Graduation exam, failed."

Iruka announced mercilessly.

...

Around 10 a.m.

A group of parents gathered at the entrance of the Ninja School, welcoming their children. There was laughter and joy in the crowd. Most people had successfully graduated. Only a few like Naruto failed to graduate.

"Dad, that guy didn't graduate."

"Tsk, he's not even a Genin."

"It would be better if that guy died."

"If that kind of person becomes a ninja, it would be terrible."

...

Naruto sat on a swing under the shade of a tree, blowing the cool breeze and looking into the distance. Although the villagers' gossip annoyed him, after some time of adaptation, he gradually began to ignore their words.

He was very clear that everything he did today was being watched, so he had to be careful.

"Naruto, come and chat."

A white-haired teacher came to Naruto's side and said with a smile.

"Hmm?"

Naruto squinted his eyes slightly.

He could feel that this person had a strong malice towards him. It should be no good for him to find him. But... it wouldn't hurt to be a little careful. He also wants to see what he intends to do.

...

On the nearly empty rooftop.

"Naruto, Iruka didn't mean to make things difficult for you by giving you questions you're not good at. It's just that being a ninja is too dangerous. He doesn't want you to face those dangers," Mizuki said with a smile.

But his malice was extremely strong!

"But I also want to graduate."

Naruto said with his head down.

"In that case, let me tell you a secret. In the Hokage's office in Konoha, there is a scroll that records various important ninjutsu. It's called the Sealing Scroll..." Mizuki continued

Sealing Scroll... there is such a thing...

Naruto's eyes began to glow, showing great interest. But his interest was not quite the same as what Mizuki imagined.

He just wanted to get the Sealing Scroll and then directly learn Flying Thunder God.

"As long as you...

Mizuki continued speaking, but before he could finish his words, there was a whooshing sound around him.

Ten Anbu suddenly appeared, staring at Mizuki in front of them with hostile faces.

Naruto still had a smiley 

Mizuki was slightly confused. He didn't know that because Naruto had erupted with Nine-Tails' power, he was highly valued by Konoha at this stage. He really just foolishly came up to him.

"What he said is false and not credible."

A ninja knocked out Mizuki with one punch and left with Body Flicker Technique after speaking to Naruto.

"Ah, Sealing Scroll, that's a good stuff."

Naruto crossed his hands behind his head and lay on the rooftop looking at the setting sun, laughing.
