Naruto: What should I do if I am not a genius?.

"Sure enough, Wood Release has a novice gift pack."

Taichi looked at the tattered dummy and a smile appeared on his face.

"Now I can be considered a person who can use Wood Release, but it is not enough to just know this one move. I need to learn some more."

"However, other Wood Release Ninjutsu are only used to support the scene. The True Thousand Hands is the Wood Release that must be learned."

Taiyi's eyes lit up.

"As long as I learn the True Thousand Hands, from now on I can be a man who can fight with two hands."

"However, the Wood Release Ninjutsu should all be in the hands of Konoha..."

Thinking of Konoha, Taichi suddenly remembered his uncle, his master Sakumo, and his close friends Kakashi, Kai, Shisui, and Shikato...

"Um... I have so many friends. Does this count as fraternity?"

The sad feeling disappeared in less than a second.

I don't know how everyone is doing, whether the fate of Minato and Kushina has changed, Naruto and Sasuke should be in school, if Naruto is not doing well, I will take him in, whether Shisui is still alive, whether Uchiha can still escape the fate of destruction, otherwise I can take Sasuke away as well, so that he can keep Naruto company.

When Taiyi thought of Konoha, his mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts. There were many people and many things that Taiyi could not let go of.

"Forget it, now that I remember it, let's go."

Tai instinctively put his hands on his waist, but found nothing.

Where is my sword?! I am so big! Where is the flowing cloud so long?!

"Damn it! It won't be lost!"

Taiyi immediately formed seals with his hands and sensed the Flying Thunder God mark on the flowing cloud.

"Huh? Liuyun is actually in Konoha."

Taichi was a little surprised at the location of Ryuyun. He thought that there was a high possibility that Ryuyun was in Black Zetsu's hands, but he didn't expect that it was in Konoha.

"This saves a lot of trouble."

"Shh!"

……

"Taiyi! Happy new life!"

In the leisure area, Little Kyuubi was pushing a big cake himself, followed by everyone from the Yang organization, and even a teary-eyed Satomi.

But when everyone came to the leisure area happily, they did not see Taiyi, only broken wine glasses on the ground.

???

"Where did he go?"

Rimi asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, he might have been sleeping for too long and wandering around the base."

Yi comforted.

"Everyone separate and look for it."

The little Kyuubi said with a frown.

"Okay!"xN

Everyone immediately dispersed and searched every corner of the base. Little Nine-Tails went directly to the place where Little Ten-Tails was imprisoned, but found no trace of Taichi.

Soon, everyone gathered together again.

"No."

"I did not see it."

"There is no sign of Taichi."

"There are traces of fire escape techniques in the training ground, and a dummy was destroyed by wood escape techniques. Taichi should have been to the training ground."

Yi opened his mouth and said.

"It looked like he was going to adapt to his new body, but why did he disappear again?"

Pan Yan stroked his chin and pondered.

"Konoha! Do you think it's possible that he went to Konoha?"

Rimi suddenly spoke up.

"Makes sense!"

Pan Yan clapped his hands and said with sudden enlightenment.

"It's very likely. After all, eight years have passed. Taiyi must want to visit his old friend."

Yiye nodded.

"Should we go find him then?"

San asked tentatively.

"Forget it, give him some time."

Rimi spoke up.

"Jiulama, please take me back and pick me up tomorrow."

Originally, Rimi planned to meet Taichi and then go back to be with her family. Since Taichi was not there, she decided to go back directly.

"it is good."

The little Nine-Tail nodded, then used Flying Thunder God to send Rimi back.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. They had wanted to give Taiyi a surprise, but who would have thought that the cake was ready, but the protagonist was missing.

"How about calling all the people (experimental personnel) back and continuing the fun?"

San asked again tentatively.

The battle with Taichi only lasted about half an hour, and it wasn't even midnight yet, so there was plenty of time.

Everyone looked at each other.

"Hi!"

Pan Yan waved his hand and called back all the experimenters, and the carnival continued.

When Little Nine-Tailed Fox came back, all the cake had been divided up, but many people still hadn't gotten to eat it.

……

Konoha.

It was New Year's Eve, the streets of Konoha were brightly lit, passers-by coming and going were all smiling, and the atmosphere of happiness filled the entire Konoha.

"Kakashi! Let's have a youthful showdown that blooms in the new year!"

Kai, wearing the familiar green tights and posing in a strange posture, shouted to Kakashi with his blood boiling.

Kakashi helplessly covered his face with his hands, looking like "I don't know him", and quickened his pace.

Although he was wearing a mask, Kakashi still found it difficult to withstand the crowd's eager and questioning gazes.

"Don't run, Kakashi!"

Gai screamed and chased after Kakashi.

"It's really energetic."

Sakumo sighed as he looked at Kakashi and Gai's receding backs.

"Yes."

Ohkawa stood next to Sakumo and also sighed.

It would be better if Taichi was still alive.

……

"Li! This is my New Year's gift to you! Are you happy?"

Matt Dai handed Xiao Li a brand new green tights.

"Thank you very much! Teacher Dai!"

Xiao Li took the tights with tears in his eyes.

"Haha! Li, today is New Year's Day, it's the time when new youth blooms! Don't cry!"

Matt Dai ruffled Xiao Li's hair, his eyes full of kindness.

Young Li had some experiences almost the same as Kai, which made Might Dai feel like he was raising a son again.

"Yes! Teacher Dai!"

Xiao Li agreed loudly, not caring about the looks of passers-by.

……

"Naruto, would you like a bowl of ramen?"

Kushina asked with a smile while holding Naruto's hand.

"May I?"

Naruto asked cheerfully, blinking his big eyes.

"of course can."

Kushina nodded and led Naruto towards Ichiraku Ramen.

Minato said nothing, just held Naruto's other hand and looked at Kushina and Naruto gently.

"Naruto?"

Sasuke took Itachi's hand and spotted Naruto in the bustling crowd at a glance.

"Want to go over and say hello?"

Itachi said gently.

"Forget it, I'm not interested."

Seeing Naruto waving at him, Sasuke withdrew his gaze with satisfaction. He couldn't suppress the smile on his face, but still pretended to be indifferent.

"OK then."

Of course Itachi also noticed Sasuke's little action and had a smile on his face.

Inner thought: My brother is so cute.

"Itachi! Long time no see!"

Izumi skipped to Itachi's front and greeted him with a smile.

"Long time no see, Izumi."

Facing Izumi, Itachi felt a little shy, and his voice was a little lower when he responded.

"Why are you alone? Do you want to go shopping together?"

Izumi put her hands behind her back, her fingers almost twisted into knots, and nervously waited for Itachi's response.

"I……"

Itachi was about to reply when he heard Sasuke huff.

"Sister Izumi, and me too!"
