Naruto walked out of the basement, feeling extremely refreshed.
The essence of Genjutsu[b]Genjutsu[/b] lies in attacking the mind. Breaking a person's spirit and shattering their beliefs in an illusory realm is the true application of Genjutsu[b]Genjutsu[/b].
Naruto covered his right eye and gritted his teeth. "It's too strenuous. Activating Genjutsu[b]Genjutsu[/b] with just one Sharingan[b]Sharingan[/b] still puts too much strain on me."
"Must gather both of Shisui's eyes..." Naruto looked at the crowd in front of him, his expression becoming excited. "Let's start training!"
In the early morning, Sasuke opened his door. Naruto and Hinata also opened their doors respectively, and the three of them came out of their rooms.
At this moment, Hinata's face flushed red. She ran to Naruto's side and said, "Naruto-kun, let's go have breakfast."
"Okay!" Naruto readily agreed, then asked Sasuke, "Sasuke, do you want to come with us?"
"I'm going back to Konoha." Sasuke put his hands in his pockets. He still had to continue training and didn't have time to waste here.
"Sasuke, do you want to take a look at the Sharingan[b]Sharingan[/b] I just had transplanted?"
Hearing this, Sasuke was slightly startled. He turned around and stared fixedly at Naruto.
Naruto generously took off his forehead protector, revealing the red pupil in his right eye.
Although Sasuke had known about it beforehand, seeing it with his own eyes still shocked him. Naruto actually had a Sharingan[b]Sharingan[/b].
Moreover, judging from the pattern of the pupil, Naruto's Sharingan[b]Sharingan[/b] had clearly reached the Mangekyo level. Currently, Sasuke only had a two-tomoe Sharingan[b]Sharingan[/b], at least two levels behind.
Naruto said, "Sasuke, do you really want to go back to Konoha? Didn't I already tell you that there's another person in this world who has a Sharingan[b]Sharingan[/b]?"
"That person isn't Kakashi, nor is he someone like me with only a single Sharingan[b]Sharingan[/b]. He has a pair of Sharingan[b]Sharingan[/b] eyes."
"I'm not going back to Konoha." Sasuke followed Naruto. "I'm going to stay by your side until that person appears."
"Alright, let's go have breakfast." Naruto successfully persuaded Sasuke to stay. Then he just needed to wait for Itachi Uchiha to appear.
While having breakfast, Naruto specifically ordered several bottles of milk for Hinata and told her to drink more fresh milk.
Taking advantage of the moment when Hinata was drinking milk, he deliberately sniffed her body fragrance. Sure enough, it was a strong milky scent mixed with a faint lily smell.
Sasuke ate very elegantly, methodically finishing the food on his plate.
Naruto pondered: When on earth will Itachi Uchiha appear? The timeline has gone completely awry. Orochimaru launched the "Konoha Destruction Plan" ahead of schedule, so the time doesn't match up at all.
Orochimaru not only launched the "Konoha Destruction Plan" ahead of schedule, but Jiraiya also left the village ahead of time to look for Tsunade.
Forget it. Anyway, I have to hold Sasuke back. Sasuke is my most crucial pawn right now. I'll keep Sasuke by my side until Itachi appears.
"I'm full, so full!" Naruto patted his belly. "Hinata, let's go back to the room and play."
Sasuke jumped in surprise and quickly got to his feet. "Naruto! Don't we need to train?"
"Training? I've already finished it." Naruto directly took out a balloon from his pocket, blew it up, and then placed it on his palm.
As Naruto continuously condensed Chakra, a large amount of it appeared inside the balloon. The Chakra was spinning rapidly, yet the fragile balloon didn't burst.
Sasuke was entranced. However, not long ago, Naruto couldn't pass this test. But unexpectedly, Naruto has met the requirements today!
" When on earth did you finish your training?" Sasuke had never seen Naruto training during this period.
" Hmm." Naruto thought for a while, then suddenly realized and said, " I completed the training in Hinata-chan's room in the middle of the night."
Sasuke was instantly dumbfounded. He stared blankly at Naruto for a good while, looking at Naruto's grinning face and then at Hinata's shy look.
" What a joke! How could there be such a training method?" Sasuke would never believe it.
" Of course there is." Naruto said mysteriously, " That's why I told you to go after Sakura. Maybe you'll also become stronger after getting Sakura."
" Hinata, let's go back to the room." Naruto took Hinata and went back to the room.
Sasuke was unwilling. He wanted to find out the secret of Naruto's training and followed them directly.
Sasuke entered the room, found a place to sit down, and watched Naruto and Hinata, trying to figure out what they were up to.
" Kage Clone Jutsu[b]Kage Clone Jutsu[/b]!" Naruto instantly summoned two shadow clones. Together with his real body, there were three Narutos in the room.
Hinata looked at the three Narutos, showing a thoughtful expression. After thinking for a while, she pointed at one of the Narutos and said, " You're the real Naruto-kun."
" Hinata-chan guessed wrong." Naruto immediately dispelled the shadow clones.
" I guessed wrong." Hinata looked worried.
Hinata formed hand seals and said, " Kage Clone Jutsu[b]Kage Clone Jutsu[/b]." Hinata also summoned two shadow clones. Together with her real body, there were three Hinatas on the scene.
" Naruto-kun, come and guess which one is my real body." The three Hinatas said in unison.
Watching the three Hinatas standing together, one could appreciate Hinata's figure from different angles. What an amazing experience!
" Then I really have to take a good look." Naruto showed a serious expression and observed the three Hinatas up and down, front and back, left and right.
The Kage Clone Jutsu[b]Kage Clone Jutsu[/b] evenly distributes Chakra to create tangible clones. Whether it's the Byakugan or the Sharingan, they basically can't see through it.
Hinata's real body was thinking to herself: I'm the real Hinata. The other two are just shadow clones. Can Naruto-kun tell?
" I really can't tell." Naruto randomly pointed at one of the Hinatas and said, " You're it. You're the real Hinata-chan."
At this moment, Sasuke, who was watching from the side, instantly held his breath. He thought Naruto had some trick to break the Kage Clone Jutsu[b]Kage Clone Jutsu[/b].
" You're wrong, Naruto-kun." Hinata dispelled the Kage Clone Jutsu[b]Kage Clone Jutsu[/b], proving that the Hinata Naruto pointed out was just a shadow clone.
Sasuke noticed something was wrong. Only now did he realize that Naruto and Hinata weren't training at all. These two guys were clearly just fooling around.
" Alas, what a pity." Naruto said regretfully, " If I had guessed right, I could have gotten a reward from Hinata-chan."
Sasuke's face turned dark. He had been watching for a long time, thinking it was some unique way of Training[b]Training[/b]. In fact, the two were just having fun using the Shadow Clone Jutsu[b]Shadow Clone Jutsu[/b].
Bang! Suddenly, the door was smashed open, and two tall figures stood outside.
Naruto looked over and saw Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki standing outside.
Finally, they're here! I've finally waited for this moment! Naruto exclaimed inwardly: Great!
Sasuke stared fixedly at Itachi Uchiha's face. This was the man he had been longing day and night to kill. Now, he was standing right in front of him.
"Hey, there are more people here than I expected," Kisame Hoshigaki said, holding his huge weapon. "Besides the kid with the Nine-Tailed Fox[b]Nine-Tailed Fox[/b], there seem to be two more people. Should we just kill them off?"
Itachi Uchiha slowly raised his head, scanned the room with a cold stare, and finally fixed his gaze on Sasuke.
