Witty Naruto Life

Chapter 118 Naruto, Tsunade, and Sasuke are in danger!
Somewhere on Tanshu Street.

In an inconspicuous room, several strong men sat cross-legged on the tatami, with casual postures and smiles on their faces.

They looked at the tall woman in front of them with gloomy faces. Her light yellow hair was casually tied behind her head, and her bright brown eyes were like deep lake water. The loose sleeveless top supported her proud breasts, which made her waist look even more slender.

But this is not the point. The point is the chips piled in front of her, and the metal box placed next to the shivering woman holding a piglet in her arms behind her, which is full of "trophies". They are hunters who are liposuctioning and marrow scraping.

Tsunade, as the legendary fat sheep, is the opponent that all gamblers dream of, as can be seen from the hungry expression of the burly man in front of her.

"Then please come first." The big man politely made a gesture of invitation and asked Tsunade to pick up the dice cup in front of him and officially start the gambling game.

Today's project is dice.

Tsunade's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a confident smile. She shook the dice skillfully, causing them to collide inside and make crisp sounds. Her eyes were focused and determined. If you didn't know, you would think she was going to join the organization.

The big man was not willing to be outdone. He shook the dice vigorously. The muscles on his face trembled with the movement of his hands, making him look a little ferocious.

The gamblers around held their breath, calculating how much the big man in front of them would win - yes, they even set stakes for this bet, as a small bonus.

"Open!" Tsunade and the big man shouted at the same time.

Tsunade slowly opened the dice cup, and the three dice fell steadily on the table, and it was actually a high number!

She showed a smug smile on her face and turned to look at the big man. The big man was sweating profusely, but the title of fat sheep that was sung in the surrounding area made him regain some confidence.

"Huh... let me see... let me see..."

He slowly opened the dice cup, slowly moving it, revealing a corner, and then...

His face turned pale in an instant!

No! Something terrible has happened!!

"I, I, I... lost."

The big man seemed to have lost all his strength. The bet just now made him put almost all his chips on the line, but he didn't expect such an unexpected outcome.

"ah!!??"

Everyone was stunned. This unexpected ending made them doubt their lives. Is this still the legendary fat sheep?

The big man stood up with a look of extreme resentment and anger on his face. He subconsciously wanted to take back Tsunade's chips: "No, you cheated! This game doesn't count!"

"Um?!"

Tsunade's eyes turned cold in an instant. She stood up, emitting a powerful aura that made everyone's legs go weak: "What, you can't afford to lose?" As she spoke, she clenched her fists slightly, and chakra gathered in her palms.

The big man was frightened by Tsunade's aura, his body trembled unconsciously, and he fell into the chair.

After seeing this, Tsunade snorted coldly, took away the chips, and said to the woman next to her with a happy face: "Shizune, let's go!"

"Ah... yes, Tsunade-sama."

Shizune followed in small steps, feeling somewhat puzzled. When did Lady Tsunade's tone become so nice?
This is unusual.

They didn't notice that wisps of black mist were slowly condensing in the air and following Tsunade's direction.

……

Near the Uchiha tribe.

"Ding! Ding! Ding!"

The kunai were fired alternately, making crisp sounds, and then bounced straight towards the different bull's eyes set on the tree trunk.

all hit.

Uchiha Sasuke let out a breath and wiped the sweat off his face. He was not satisfied with the result, but instead reviewed some of the details in his mind.

"The movements weren't fast enough, the force wasn't applied in time, and... it lacked a certain ferocity."

He was calmly self-critical, without pride or inferiority, assessing his own performance like a ruthless shuriken machine.

Ever since that tomb-sweeping trip, Sasuke began to frequently visit the Uchiha clan's territory, searching for traces of himself in the places where he once lived and played.

The shuriken technique just mentioned is called Uchiha Shuriken Throwing Technique. It was Itachi's specialty before his clan was exterminated. His brother often brought him to this area to improve his shuriken technique.

After his clan was exterminated, Sasuke subconsciously avoided everything related to Itachi, such as starting to hate sweets, and devoted all his energy to training to numb himself.

But now it’s different. He would bring some tributes to the tribesmen in the cemetery from time to time, and pick up the past that he didn’t want to recall, and draw useful strength from it to make himself stronger.

For example, the shuriken throwing technique just now. Naruto said it when they were doing a high-intensity copy of the Heart Demon Itachi copy before. This thing is objective and has nothing to do with your brother. If it is useful, you practice it. If it is useless, throw it away. It's simple.

"Yeah, I used to think too much and do too little, so I was always confused..."

Sasuke retrieved his kunai and prepared to begin a new round of training.

Thanks to Naruto's efforts, the Uchiha boy seemed to have been transformed into a normal person and began to gradually break free from the shackles of revenge.

right?

What Sasuke didn't notice was that a sticky black liquid began to slowly condense and flow towards him. ...

A street near Tansho Street, near a hotel.

After a morning of intense training, Naruto and Jiraiya found a snack street, bought a lot of food, and shared it while walking.

"Lewd sage, I want that," Naruto pointed in the direction of a certain store, causing Jiraiya to frown slightly.

"Aren't you eating Taiyaki? The sudden change of temperature can easily upset your stomach."

"Aren't you done eating?" Naruto opened his mouth wide, indicating that he had eaten everything. Jiraiya shook his head helplessly and bought a special popsicle from the store.

This special popsicle has a special meaning in "Naruto". In the original work, Naruto would only enjoy it with "relatives" such as Jiraiya and Iruka. It implies the family affection that Naruto has regained.

"Snapped!"

Jiraiya gave half to Naruto, who took it with a smile, licked it, and felt a warm feeling in his body.

He didn't ask for this popsicle for himself, but for the original body.

As time slowly passed, Naruto seemed to begin to become solid again from the transparency he had been in after the fierce battle with Itachi, indicating that this activity of spreading positive emotions could nourish Naruto's soul, allowing him to recover and become stronger.

Although this amount is very small, it is far less than what is needed to treat Sasuke.

And Naruto discovered another feature: the wisdom of the deity would be enhanced with the absorption of positive emotions. Before, he only fought against Naruto's negative memories with instinct, but now, he could take the initiative to make requests and even have conversations with Naruto.

"However, this growth of wisdom should have an upper limit. I guess it will not exceed Uzumaki Naruto in the original work." Naruto said in his heart.

This speculation is more logical.

Naruto finished eating the popsicle unknowingly and basked in the sun, suddenly feeling lazy.

This period of time was too peaceful, and he even had the idea of ​​being lazy.

As his mouth-to-mouth technique became more advanced, Naruto no longer considered it a difficult task to convince Tsunade to overcome sepsis. He was confident that he could succeed in his mouth-to-mouth technique without hurting himself.

"But the past two days have been a bit too peaceful, a bit too peaceful to be real... Well, why not think about whether Orochimaru and the others will do something that goes against the original story."

The two continued shopping, seemingly oblivious to the silent gazes coming from afar and high above.

……

In the afternoon, Jiraiya summoned the Toad Power for Naruto as usual, and Naruto began to practice amid the croaking of frogs. Unlike before, Jiraiya did not continue to "collect intelligence", but began to inspect the results of his practice.

"Very good, very good. You are now able to disrupt the chakra in your body very well. Ordinary illusions will not easily control you."

Naruto nodded, without any pride: "However, this is based on the premise that I realize that I am under the illusion. If I don't realize that I am under the illusion, I will really put myself in danger."

"What's more, the people I will be dealing with in the future are not ordinary people, but masters of illusion like Uchiha Itachi."

Jiraiya was a little surprised. This kid spoke in a way that was too mature. He seemed to lack the youthful vigor at all.

Thinking of this, he encouraged: "Your analysis is correct. Toad power is not a top illusion master, but it can help you deal with most illusion ninjas, which is enough."

Naruto didn't respond, but remained silent for a moment before slowly saying, "Master, can we have a combat-based illusion confrontation next?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"I think that for many illusion ninjas, they will use the least amount of chakra/eye power to mislead the enemy and turn it into a combat advantage."

"But the illusion fights I've been doing lately are a completely different situation: the toad's power controls me, and then I try to break free. These are two different uses of illusion."

"Next, I want to practice [Countering Illusion Misleading] in actual combat."

What Naruto meant was that illusions can be used to 'mislead' or 'control'.

The usage of misleading is to release illusions in some details to mislead the enemy, such as Sasuke misleading Danzo and making him misjudge the duration of Izanagi.

The usage of strong control is to directly generate illusions to curb the enemy's actions. For example, when Hong first fought Itachi, he directly generated an illusion of a tree to bind the two of them.

The advantages of strong control are very clear, but the disadvantage is that it tests the basic skills of the illusion ninja. If you encounter a master like Itachi and he directly rebounds with an illusion, you're doomed.

A true master of illusion will mix and match them, and bring his physical and ninjutsu to the pinnacle.

Next, Naruto hopes to conduct a "misleading" illusion confrontation. The difficulty of this confrontation is that the caster will not let you know that you are under the illusion, but will use a certain detail to kill you.

"I understand. After all, you've already managed to break free from the control quite well. Next, I'll let Toad Force fight you in actual combat. Of course, the confrontation will be limited to a certain point, and no killing will be done."

"clear."

The two men and the frog quickly began the second phase of illusion combat training. As expected, Naruto was at a disadvantage from the start, and the various misleading details made it difficult to guard against.

However, Naruto also felt a little uncomfortable during this process.

It was very strange, as if I was being targeted by some dirty creature.
