Chapter 558: Thick-Skinned Boy

In the Hokage's office.

"Bata!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was smoking a pot, and white smoke was lingering.

Wearing a Hokage hat, he didn't pay attention to the upright Iruka standing in front of him, and the equally nervous Naruto.

After a long while.

Iruka, who had sweat on his forehead, stood up boldly and said, "Fire, Hokage-sama!"

"Um?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his head and looked at the two of them.

"Naruto, Naruto was bewitched by Mr. Mizuki, and he made a big mistake just now. Considering that he is still young, please forgive him!"

Iruka said boldly.

After saying that, he bent over deeply, sweat dripping down his cheeks and falling to the ground.

"Mizuki?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.

"He is also a poor child. I never expected that he would do such a thing!"

After sighing, he said no more.

After focusing on Naruto, he narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Did that man accept you as his disciple? Naruto!"

Naruto was stunned when he heard this: "Who?"

"Xia Le!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen emphasized his tone.

Naruto immediately scratched his head: "No, no, Uncle Xia Le, didn't ask me to call him that."

"Yeah?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was noncommittal.

From what he saw in the crystal ball, Naruto's fighting style was very much like Xia Le's, and his physical skills were quite excellent.

After a slight pause, he spoke again.

"Naruto!"

“Take the opportunity to learn from that man.”

"This is rare for everyone in the ninja world!"

Upon hearing such words, Naruto was stunned.

Iruka immediately pulled Naruto to thank him.

"Since the matter of stealing the Sealed Book was Mizuki's conspiracy, then, since you were still young, I will forgive your fault!"

"Now that I can learn the shadow clone technique, I already have the qualifications to become a genin!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen chuckled again.

Iruka and Naruto were immediately overjoyed.

After a while, the two walked out of the Hokage building.

"Am I becoming a genin, Iruka-sensei!"

Naruto said excitedly.

"Hokage-sama said that, of course you have the qualifications to become a genin!"

Iruka said with a smile.

He slowly turned around and took out a forehead protector from his arms: "In my eyes, you already have the ability to become a ninja."

As he said this, he tied the forehead protector on Naruto's forehead.

"From today on, you are a ninja, Naruto!"

"In the future, we must work harder!"

Naruto was shocked and nodded heavily: "Yes, Iruka-sensei!"

"I must become a person recognized by everyone, become a person like my father, and become the Hokage of Konoha!"

Iruka was startled: "Do you know who your father is?"

"Know!"

Naruto turned around, stretched out his index finger, and pointed at the huge fourth Hokage Rock behind him.

"It's him!"

Iruka's body shook violently, and his expression became complicated for a moment.

"The Fourth Hokage is a great Hokage!"

He reached out his hand, rubbed Naruto's head, and said softly.

"Back then, there were not many people who could make such a choice like him!"

Naruto was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "I want to be like him!"

"good!"

Iruka smiled.

"Come on, to celebrate your becoming a genin, sensei will treat you to ramen!"

Naruto suddenly shouted excitedly.

the other side.

Xia Le looked at Sasuke who walked into the yard and raised his head slightly: "He's back!"

"Um!"

Sasuke nodded.

Then, he came to Xia Le silently.

"Is something wrong?"

Xia Le raised his eyebrows.

"I became a ninja!"

Sasuke emphasized his tone, took out the forehead protector from his arms, and showed it in front of the other party.

"Oh? Congratulations then!"

Xia Le smiled.

Such a casual tone caused black lines to appear on Sasuke's forehead, and he clenched his fists, then gritted his teeth and said, "Is it time to tell me the truth?"

Xia Le looked at the other party in surprise: "What's the truth?"

"you!!"

Sasuke's eyes widened in shock.

He didn't expect that the other party would not keep his promise.

"I can tell you something!"

Xia Le smiled lightly.

"Say it!"

Sasuke suppressed his anger.

"Your parents are still alive today."

"It's just, not in Konoha, as for where they are."

After a pause, Xia Le looked at the other party playfully.

"In the future, you can explore it yourself."

Sasuke's heart was shocked, and then he was overjoyed.

He didn't expect that there would be such a happy event. I originally thought I was an orphan, but I didn't expect that my parents were still alive.

It seems that there is indeed another truth to what happened back then.

"The Uchiha clan."

He took a deep breath and asked expectantly.

"The Uchiha clan was indeed destroyed back then. Those who are still alive in this world today are just the lucky ones."

Xia Le interrupted.

"As for what happened that night."

There was a pause.

"For me, it's all in the past."

"For you, the same is true. What happened is no longer important."

Afterwards, Xia Le closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Sasuke stood there stunned.

"If you really want to know, use your own power to find it!"

"Go find your parents, go find the truth of the past!"

"After all, you are now a mature ninja."

Xia Le's words came again.

Sasuke took a deep breath and made up his mind.

"Humph, don't tell me!"

"Sooner or later I will find out the truth of the past."

At night, Naruto also returned to the yard.

Unlike the loss when he left the assessment site, Naruto was excited at this moment.

"Uncle, uncle!"

"Look, look!"

He pointed at the forehead protector on his forehead and shouted excitedly.

"See, it's just an ordinary forehead protector!"

Xia Le said casually.

"What!"

"This is the sign that I became a Genin!"

"Quick, teach me ninjutsu, teach me powerful ninjutsu!"

Naruto pouted in dissatisfaction at first, and then yelled again.

This cheerful and lively appearance is simply two extremes compared to Sasuke who stood silently on the side.

"Ninjutsu!"

"Since you have become a Genin, I can teach you!"

Xia Le said with a smile.

"Great!"

Naruto stood up.

Afterwards, Xia Le looked outside the yard. The setting sun in the evening shone on the ground, reflecting a bright red color.

"It's not dark yet, so there's still time."

"If you want to learn, just follow me!"

Naruto immediately followed him, shouting.

The Shadow Clone Technique made him feel that he still had some talent for learning ninjutsu. Therefore, he couldn't wait to master more powerful techniques.

When Xia Le walked to the open space outside the yard, he turned around and unexpectedly found that there was someone following him.

"Why are you here too?"

Sasuke said expressionlessly, his face reddened, "I want to learn new ninjutsu too!"

Xia Le was speechless.

"I thought you were very thin-skinned."

Sasuke just pretended not to hear.

For new ninjutsu, it's worth being thick-skinned.

Under the hints of Huo Guang, he already knew how precious it was to have the opportunity to be guided by this man.

"Naruto!"

Facing the red sunset, Xia Le smiled and said.

"I have two ninjutsu for you to choose from."

"One is the Rasengan, an A-level unmarked ninjutsu, which can be learned with wind chakra."

"It is also the ninjutsu that your father learned from me and promoted."

Hearing such words, Naruto's eyes lit up immediately: "Father also knows this?"

"Not bad!"

Xia Le nodded.

"Then I will learn this!"

Naruto said excitedly.

"There is another one, called the Flying Thunder God Technique."

Xia Le did not start teaching directly, but smiled faintly.

When Huo Guang heard this name, his eyes widened!

Flying Thunder God Technique? !

This was the famous ninjutsu of the fourth generation of Hokage that obtained the golden flash. How could he not know its power?

Just a few words of time and space ninjutsu are worth the shock of the whole world.

"Flying Thunder God Technique?!"

Naruto blinked.

He had seen this name in the Book of Seals, and it must be a powerful ninjutsu.

But.

"Uncle, how do you know the ninjutsu in the Book of Seals?"

Xia Le laughed: "I have seen it."

Naruto immediately remembered that the other party did take a look at the Book of Seals not long ago.

But if it was just a glance, how could he remember such a complicated and mysterious seal? It is even more impossible to learn it just like that.

"Which one do you choose? Naruto!"

Xia Le asked with interest.

Naruto did not say anything, he fell into bitter thinking.

These two ninjutsu are indeed difficult for him to choose.

Because he has no idea how powerful these two ninjutsu are.

After a long while, Naruto's eyes lit up and he raised his head.

"What? Have you made a decision?"

Xia Le asked with a smile.

Naruto nodded heavily: "Yes!"

"Tell me!"

Xia Le said.

"I choose both!"

Naruto said loudly.

Such a choice made everyone present stunned.

Huo Guang's mouth twitched. He really didn't expect it. Normal people wouldn't choose like this, right?

Two ninjutsu, and both are quite difficult to master, especially the Flying Thunder God Technique. It was listed as a forbidden technique, not because of its powerful power, but because it is difficult to practice.

From the Second Hokage to today, only the Fourth Hokage has succeeded.

Wanting to learn and being able to learn are two different things.

"You are really ambitious!"

Xia Le sighed and said with emotion.

"But since you have chosen it!"

"Whether you can learn it or not is your business!"

"You know, the more powerful the ninjutsu is, the more time and energy it takes to master it."

Naruto's eyes lit up: "I will definitely learn it!"

"I like your confident look."

Xia Le said with a chuckle.

Then, he raised his right hand and opened his palm.

"Buzz!"

The blue energy immediately rotated from his palm, and in the blink of an eye formed a sphere, driving a light breeze.

"This is the A-level ninjutsu, the Rasengan!"

"The most special thing about it is that it does not require any seals and at the same time it has powerful destructive power!"

Xia Le explained calmly.

And then, he demonstrated it himself, pressing the Rasengan in his hand into the big tree surrounded by nearly five or six people in front of him.

Silently, the tree trunk was twisted, forming an ugly scar.

"It doesn't seem that powerful!"

Naruto said scratching his head.

Because from the outside, the tree trunk in front of me was indeed not seriously damaged. There were spherical holes surrounded by ring-shaped cracks.

Xia Le just chuckled: "Go and look at the back of it."

Naruto was stunned and immediately ran behind the tree.

The scene that came into his eyes immediately made his pupils shrink and his heart was shaken.

"this?!"

Behind the big tree, there was a huge twisted hole. Looking from the back to the front, it looked like a huge funnel.

If this hit someone, he couldn't even imagine how destructive it would be.

Sasuke also walked around behind the big tree at this moment. When he saw this scene, he was also shocked in his heart.

"Quick, teach me!"

Naruto yelled.

Xia Le smiled slightly, pressed his hand on his waist, and held a kunai in his hand.

The next second, in Naruto's surprised look, the kunai came out of his hand and shot directly towards his eyebrows.

The kunai was extremely fast, like lightning, and it reached the center of his eyebrows in the blink of an eye.

Vaguely, he only saw a black light flashing in the void ahead.

A big hand suddenly appeared between his eyebrows and grasped the kunai.

"And this is the art of Flying Thunder God."

Naruto turned around blankly and looked at the other short knife that appeared in front of his neck. His throat bulged and he swallowed.

quick! too fast!

At the same time that Kunai arrived, the figure of the other party was already behind him.

It's incredible.

"Teleport?!"

Sasuke was also shocked at this time.

Compared to the Rasengan, the visual sense of the Flying Thunder God Technique is more shocking.

I just felt that with a flash of light in front of my eyes, the person had already arrived, or even crossed over. If you are in combat, this move cannot be defended at all.

"It's not wrong to say it's teleportation!"

Xia Le smiled lightly.

Naruto was already trembling all over. The power of these two ninjutsu was beyond his imagination.

"I want to learn from it!"

He trembled and said excitedly.

"Then let's start with the simple Rasengan!"

Xia Le smiled lightly.

Then, he began to teach Naruto the principles and methods of the Rasengan.

Without the influence of the Kyuubi, Naruto's ability to learn ninjutsu is actually not low. The failure of the Genin exam was precisely because of the Kyuubi.

Of course, there is also the shadow of Xia Le in this, and the purpose is naturally to take a look at the contents of the sealed book.

The art of Flying Thunder God is just incidental.

His biggest goal is actually to seal away the corpse ghosts above and reincarnate in the dirty land.

This kind of technique involving ghosts and gods is what interests him.

When his strength reaches his level, he has already begun to involve the realm of ghosts and gods.

Sasuke looked on eagerly.

He wanted to follow suit, but soon discovered that he couldn't.

The chakra attribute of the Rasengan is obviously wind type.

He doesn't seem to be.

After a while, Naruto had mastered the principles of the Rasengan and began to practice hard.

Xia Le turned around and looked at Sasuke.

"Say it, shameless boy."

"what do you want to learn?"

Hearing this, Sasuke's brows jumped.

He is not a shameless boy! !
