Witty Naruto Life

Chapter 159 Naruto: How about I catch him for you?
“There’s no such thing as too late.”

Chiyo looked over at Naruto, the young man's tone seemed to harden a bit after she said "late stage".

Is he confident enough in his medical skills... Chiyo couldn't see through Naruto's thoughts, but she didn't mind him saying such things.

Rather, this statement sounds like something only young people would say. Because they are young, they don't know the immensity of the world.

"This conclusion is interesting. Please help me diagnose it." Chiyo finally put aside her concerns and decided to experience the psychotherapy process first.

It's not just because of Naruto, the appearance of Scorpion also made her decide to "welcome" her grandson in the best condition.

Naruto immediately greeted Maki and decided to choose another room to talk with Chiyo, first to understand the basic situation and establish a file.

The general process of psychotherapy is: initial diagnosis and assessment → plan formulation → treatment implementation → consolidation of therapeutic effects.

Maki found a room for the two of them. Naruto closed the door, made sure they were not being monitored, and then took out a notebook and pen. Chiyo took a glance and saw that there seemed to be a form inside.

The two sat opposite each other.

"It looks a lot like the form doctors use to evaluate patients," Chiyo nodded, feeling more confident in the professionalism.

"To be precise, this is called a scale. Mother-in-law, you seem to know a lot about medical ninjas?"

"Of course. During World War II, when I was battling the old man with the snorkel, I was able to detoxify every poison he made. Oh, that was Hanzo of the Salamander..."

Chiyo seemed lost in memories, talking about her past experiences, while Naruto quietly took notes.

He learned about Chiyo's past as a medical ninja and puppeteer, and then took the opportunity to ask her about some of her unforgettable past events.

This is a necessary procedure in the "initial diagnosis and assessment" stage. In addition to using psychological assessment scales to assess emotional state, it is also necessary to analyze life events and count the stress sources in the past six months.

"...Hmm, so in other words, Scorpion's parents were killed by Konoha's White Fang Hatake Sakumo, and then you passed on the puppetry technique to Scorpion, correct?"

"That's right," Chiyo couldn't help but frowned slightly, "Perhaps my decision led to Scorpion's departure in the future."

Naruto said softly, "From a psychological point of view, this is a decision you made to divert your grandson Scorpion's pain and sorrow from losing his parents. There is nothing wrong with that."

"I don't know if you noticed, but at that time you were actually already working as a psychiatrist."

Chiyo suddenly realized and completely understood the true meaning of psychotherapy.

"So this is psychotherapy... I now feel that your move is really necessary."

"I would be even happier if you were willing to discuss this matter with the higher-ups in Sunagakure later."

Naruto smiled. He felt a sense of accomplishment in popularizing psychological knowledge and making more people aware of the importance of mental health.

But when it comes to this, Chiyo hesitates: "...I haven't asked about government affairs for a long time."

"Oh, that's how it is. I'm sorry for the inconvenience." Naruto didn't show any frustration. He turned around and handed Chiyo a piece of paper. "This is the 'family relationship chart' I drew. Do you think I drew it correctly?"

Drawing a three-generation kinship relationship diagram can intuitively indicate who provides emotional support and who causes conflicts.

Chiyo looked at it carefully and nodded: "No problem."

"Ah."

Naruto took back the paper, took a deep breath, and said to Chiyo: "This is what I think. Your health problems are largely due to your past experiences."

"He has experienced three great ninja wars, commanded over 47 high-risk missions, and witnessed the deaths of over 200 of his subordinates."

"50 years old, his son and daughter-in-law were killed by Hatake Sakumo."

"55 years old, grandson defected from Sand Village,"

"These major life traumas accumulate, and if they go untreated for a long time, problems will arise over time."

What Naruto didn't say here is: Chiyo's indifference to political affairs and her long-term seclusion are manifestations of numbness, and numbness is the ibuprofen that fights major trauma.

It’s like people who have experienced war for many years will feel numb to corpses. This is a psychological defense mechanism.

If this person is not numb, he will go completely crazy sooner or later.

So if there is no interference from the black hand, Chiyo can remain numb until she dies (she is already very old), but it seems a bit too tragic.

"In my situation, what do you think I should do? Seal my memory directly?" Chiyo couldn't help but ask.

Naruto smiled and shook his head: "Let's consider this plan as a backup."

"How about meeting your eldest grandson, Grandma Chiyo?"

The ninja world is cruel, and the brave generals who can fight their way out of thousands of troops are no ordinary people. Naruto does not think it is necessary to treat Chiyo in such an extreme way.

Chiyo stood up and nodded to Naruto, "That's exactly what I meant."

If necessary, she would kill her own grandson with her own hands.

But the next second, Naruto's words made Chiyo stunned.

"How about I just bring him to you?"

Chiyo was slightly stunned, looking at the smiling young man in front of her with a puzzled expression.

"…if you can do that."

"Haha, how do you know if you don't try?"

Naruto opened the door and sent Chiyo back to Sakura, where he untied his shadow clone.

"Oh!"

It turned out that the person who had just come with Sakura was just a shadow clone of Naruto, and the real person was somewhere else. Chiyo turned around with a surprised expression. She couldn't help but ask the person next to her: "Hey, do you know where that guy went just now?"

Yamamoto blinked and shook his head like a rattle.

"I do not know."

……

The border area of ​​Sand Village.

Naruto himself and his three shadow clones stood on a high place, and they could see the layout of the outskirts of the Sand Village ahead.

The original body and two shadow clones sat cross-legged on the ground with their eyes closed, and you could see that the immortal's facial mask had already taken shape.

Another shadow clone put on a very light-colored Nine-Tailed Fox coat, with a sharp gaze, and used a telescope to observe the scene in the distance.

Unfortunately, the wind is quite strong near Sunagakure, and it is difficult to see the footprints clearly at the moment.

After a while, the four received a message from the shadow clone.

The original body stood up, exhaled, and signaled the Nine-Tails clone to move closer and prepare for battle.

After learning about Chiyo's life in detail, Ming, who had been practicing for two and a half years, came up with an idea:
He wants Grandma Chiyo to survive.

If I want to survive, I can't let Gaara die, and I can't let Sasori and Deidara arrive at the rendezvous point on time.

Gaara's plan to recapture him must succeed.

Fortunately, Naruto had already learned Flying Thunder God and had given Gaara a Flying Thunder God Kunai earlier - basically every important person had one.

Although I'm not sure if it's still on Gaara, it always makes sense to give it a try.

If you can defeat them, hold them back; if you can't, just run away. It's not a big problem.

"Are you ready?" The main body looked at the Nine-Tailed Naruto next to him. The latter nodded and let a piece of tail emerge from the tailbone.

Afterwards, a lavender Rasengan emerged from Nine-Tails Naruto's right hand, while the original body condensed a blue-green Rasengan in his left hand.

If you look closely, you can find that the time it takes to condense the Rasengan has become much faster. If Naruto wants, he can even condense the Rasengan instantly like Minato.

"After five minutes, remove the clones." The original body instructed the two clones next to him.

Then, Naruto placed his right hand on the shoulder of the Nine-Tails clone.

"Whoosh!"

The two disappeared instantly.

……

A few minutes ago, on the other side.

After Sasori defeated Kankuro with overwhelming force, he quickly caught up with Deidara. The two of them maintained a moderate speed and rushed towards the gathering place.

It takes half a day for Takamaru of Sunagakure to reach Konoha, and the time for Konoha ninja to provide support is three days in the original work.

In this time and space, Team 7 took only two days to reach Sunagakure, plus it took some time to deal with Kankuro. Strictly speaking, the Akatsuki duo left Sunagakure for about two and a half days.

During this period, the two did not encounter any obstacles, so they did not travel very fast.

At this time, the idle Deidara had a disagreement with Sasori about what art is.

“…So, the powerful force brought about by the splendor and shock at the moment of explosion is what is beautiful. Therefore, art is a momentary explosion!”

"Your so-called art is only fleeting. How can art that cannot be preserved for a long time be remembered by the world?"

Scorpion didn't want to argue too much with Deidara on this issue, so he ignored him after saying this. However, Deidara became more and more excited as he talked.

"Let me put it this way. If I ever meet Uzumaki Naruto in the future, when he is reduced to ashes by my C4 Garuda, the whole world will remember this moment, huh!"

"...Tsk, speak up, Brother Scorpion. Art will be remembered by the world as long as it's shown to famous people. Do you understand?"

Scorpion snorted coldly: "If Uzumaki Naruto were made into a puppet by me, he would remain forever in a fixed form, but your explosion is just an explosion, and will be forgotten by future generations sooner or later."

"So, it's still a question of who to blow up. Blowing up a nobody is pointless, but what about using my Ultimate Art to blow up the Hokage? Hmm!"

Scorpion remained silent. He couldn't say anything naughty, otherwise he would have to mock him by saying "You can pee even without a mirror".

In a two-person partnership, No-Brain and Unhappy are the most common combination, but if a third person is added, the original balance will be completely broken.

Suddenly, Scorpion and Deidara's pupils shrank!

The next moment, the two of them felt two completely different chakras gathering behind them in an instant, like one yin and one yang. The common point was: these two chakras were extremely powerful!

"boom!!"

The giant bird Deidara was riding was completely shattered in two by two Rasengans, and clay splattered everywhere! Gaara's body fell down, and a red tail instantly extended over, about to catch Gaara.

But the next moment, the scorpion's tail vertebrae extended its stinger, and it collided with the tail of the Nine-Tails clone with a "bang", and then Gaara fell into the desert.

The next moment, Naruto pounced on Gaara's body, but noticed that almost at the same time, countless white spiders and small flying birds pounced towards him!

Deidara shouted, "Drink!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The bombs gathered around the main body exploded instantly!
