Naruto the Genius

Chapter 90 Barrier
In order to avoid being discovered by the people in front of him, Naruto carefully entered the passage and used earth escape to hide his whereabouts in the walls of the passage. Passing through the long and narrow passage, Naruto once again found the ninjas from before, and at this time the passage was already very open. However, the ninjas in front of him all stopped, stood in two rows and looked ahead, and no one knew what they were paying attention to.

Naruto looked around carefully and found that not only the space here had expanded, but there were also many strange carvings inside. There were also many strange patterns on the walls, which Naruto had never seen before. There was only one that Naruto was familiar with, which was the spiral pattern on the Konoha ninja costumes. However, these did not help Naruto much except making him more certain that this was the ruins of the Uzumaki clan.

At this moment, the group that came before started to move. The ten ninjas standing in the back row suddenly took out their weapons and rushed forward. Judging from their momentum, they should have used their strongest attacks. Soon, the attacks of these ten people seemed to be blocked, but there was no usual impact sound. At this time, Naruto noticed that the place where they attacked was glowing red, interweaving into a strange pattern, like an invisible barrier blocking their attack. At this time, another ten people also attacked forward like the previous ten people, while the previous ten people retreated to prepare for the next attack.

Seeing this, Naruto guessed that there should be a barrier ahead, and these people had no way to pass through it, so they used the dumbest method, trying to constantly consume the power of the barrier to break it. These people kept attacking in turns, and there was another person watching them from the side, who looked like the leader of these ninjas. Suddenly Naruto found that this person took out a piece of glowing jade from his pocket. Naruto opened his eyes wide and looked at it, and found a vortex pattern on it. If there is only one piece of such jade, Naruto can basically be sure that it is the jade that Hongye mentioned her father. In this case, these people are very likely to have obtained it from Hongye's father.

Naruto had been observing from the dark while the other twenty ninjas had been attacking the barrier continuously, but the barrier showed no signs of breaking. The continuous attacks made these people start to pant, and the leader holding the jade said, "Everyone take a short break and attack again later, but our time is very limited and we can't waste too much time."

One of them wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked in front of the man and said, "Captain, after such a long time of attack, the power of the barrier doesn't seem to have weakened much. If this continues, we don't know when we can break the barrier."

The captain said, "I know, but we don't have a better way to break it. The Uzumaki clan's ninjutsu is really extraordinary. The stronger the barrier is, the more valuable the things inside are. We finally got this clue, and we must not waste this opportunity."

Another person said, "Captain, we can only stay here for two hours each time. Once we exceed this time, the red light will disappear, and everything here will suddenly disappear. At that time, such an attack will be meaningless."

The captain was obviously a little anxious and said hurriedly: "Everyone take a five-minute break, then take the Bingliang Pills, and then use the strongest attack to intensify the action. You should have seen that compared with a month ago, the power of the barrier is still weakened to a certain extent." Five minutes later, these people took the Bingliang Pills they carried and continued to attack the barrier. From their attacks, Naruto could see that these people were not very strong. The only one who was slightly stronger should be the captain.

However, Naruto had not yet fully understood the situation and did not take any action. He just watched them attack the barrier. About two hours later, there was a slight tremor inside, and a huge stone wall of extraordinary thickness rose from the ground. The stone wall slowly rose up, blocking the barrier behind, and the red light gradually disappeared at this time.

After continuous attacks, these people consumed a lot of chakra and basically reached their limit. At this time, they all fell to the ground to rest. After a long time, they left here listlessly. After they left, Naruto came out of the wall and knocked the stone wall with a kunai. From the knocking sound, it was definitely not stone, but some kind of metal. Because the color was similar to stone, Naruto mistook it for a stone wall. Naruto injected chakra into the kunai, but did not cause any damage to the metal wall. On the contrary, the kunai broke into pieces. It seems that it is really not an ordinary wall.

Naruto carefully observed here. At this time, there was no light inside, so Naruto took out the light he carried with him. At this time, there was nothing in front of him except a solid wall, and he didn't find anything for a while. He realized that it might be meaningless to stay like this, so Naruto also went out from the entrance. At this time, the previous opening had been blocked by something, which was placed by the previous ninja to cover the exit.

Using Flying Thunder God, he went directly outside the cave. Judging from the time, the previous group of ninjas must not have gone far. Naruto followed their trail and moved forward quickly. Since these people consumed a lot of chakra, they walked very slowly. Soon Naruto saw them again. Naruto followed them quietly and found their residence after a while. It turned out that they also built a few thatched houses in the woods as their temporary residence. A group of people ate a little and fell asleep. Naruto could have gotten rid of them immediately, but considering that there might be information that he had not mastered, he did not take action for the time being. He left a mark here and went back.

Naruto returned to his cabin. Hongye was already resting at this time. Naruto quietly entered the cabin without waking Hongye up. Sitting on the wooden chair, Naruto thought: "It seems that the entrance will only open when the moon just rises. No wonder I didn't find it the last time I went there. In this way, I can find the right time to go there every time in the future. However, for the sake of caution, Naruto decided to observe the ninjas again tomorrow. The jade of Hongye's father should also be related to this matter, otherwise the ninja would not hold such a thing in his hand."

Naruto planned to ask Hongye in more detail, perhaps he could get some valuable information.
