The scene continued to play.
"The first ti, I broke six ribs, both arms were fractured, and several internal organs ruptured."
Tsunade stood beside him, looking at Jiraiya with open disgust.
"Because I tried to peek at the won's hot spring… Tsunade, you beat half to death!"
It was an utterly shaful story, yet Jiraiya looked strangely proud of himself.
Tsunade, anwhile, looked like her disgust had reached its limit.
…
Hidden Cloud Village.
"So these are Konoha's Legendary Sannin? I love it! Hahaha!"
"One's a traitor obsessed with destroying Konoha."
"One's a gambling addict, a drunk, and even hemophobic—always calling the Hokage trash."
"I thought at least the last one was normal, but he turned out to be a peeping tom."
"And the key point is—he got caught! What a disgrace!"
The Fourth Raikage, A, looked toward the west side of the village. If he rembered correctly…
The won's hot springs of the Hidden Cloud were right over there.
Mabui suddenly appeared by the window, blocking his line of sight.
…
Hidden Stone Village(Iwagakure).
Ōnoki sighed. "Hard to believe the trio who once won the war for Konoha turned out like this."
Kurotsuchi asked, "Grandpa, Konoha's the one embarrassing itself. Why are you sighing?"
Ōnoki replied, "Konoha is embarrassing, yes… but isn't it even more embarrassing that we lost to them?"
Oh. Kurotsuchi silently agreed—wisdom truly ca with age. She still had much to learn.
…
Hidden Sand Village(Sunagakure).
"As expected… every village has its own darkness."
Chiyo's eyes were filled with age-worn sorrow.
The Hidden Sand had simply not reached its turn yet.
…
Hidden Mist Village( Kirigakure).
"Tsunade, that old hag, can't compare to at all. Just look at the people around her!"
"Isn't that right?"
Terumi i turned to Chōjūrō.
"Well… that's true. The so-called strongest Hokage in history—and his three students are all weirdos."
Chōjūrō gave his analysis in a surprisingly serious tone.
…
Konoha.
"What a disgrace…"
Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head. The face of Konoha…
Forget it. When he thought about it carefully, the mont these visions began…
Konoha had already beco a laughingstock.
…
Sowhere else.
"Aiya! Looks like everyone knows now."
"What ever shall I do?"
Jiraiya's face showed not a trace of worry—only excitent.
…
Inn beside a certain casino.
"That idiot Jiraiya… making lose face along with him. Just wait till we go back—I'll break his ribs again!'"
Tsunade fud.
…
Pure Land.
Hashirama Senju: Madara! Look, isn't my little Tsunade adorable?!
Uchiha Madara: Hmph!
Uzumaki Mito: Aaaaah! I'm dead but I still want to watch that expression of Tsunade's forever!
Uchiha Izuna: Nii-san! Nii-san! I can make that expression too!
…
The scene shifted again.
"And the other ti… was when I trained together with Naruto."
"When I saw the fourth tail of the Nine-Tails' chakra materialize…"
"Rage acts as the trigger that increases the fox's tails."
Jiraiya finally removed his shirt, revealing the fatal scar carved across his chest.
It was horrifying to look at.
…
Inside Naruto's mind, within the iron bars of the Eight Trigrams Seal—
"Those damn insects… calling a fox monster!"
The Nine-Tails snarled, baring its teeth, wishing it could tear Jiraiya apart instantly.
"And that future brat Naruto… actually manages to control my power."
"Hmph. How infuriating."
The scene continued.
Back to the battle.
Kabuto sneered: "Naruto, being a jinchūriki has helped you grow so much."
Inwardly, Kabuto was delighted—Naruto's Nine-Tails chakra was becoming stronger and stronger.
The battered Orochimaru slowly stood up and walked toward Naruto.
"You're becoming more and more like a real jinchūriki, Naruto."
He was visibly excited.
At that mont, everyone saw Orochimaru's face—half of it rotted away.
…
Inside the Reaper's Stomach (place where souls are sealed after a user performs the Reaper Death Seal), during the Dead Demon Consuming Seal.
"Go away! Go away, you ugly freak! Don't you dare get close to my Naruto!"
Kushina Uzumaki frantically waved her hands at the image, unwilling to let Orochimaru approach.
"Orochimaru and that one-eyed guy… it looks like they're deliberately provoking Naruto."
Minato frowned, unease rising within him.
The scene continued.
"So that's why!"
"That's why you were chosen to monitor him!"
Orochimaru stared coldly at Yamato.
"Looks like my test subject turned out to be useful after all."
"Konoha really should thank , shouldn't it?"
"Right, my adorable experint?"
Orochimaru's eyes were full of mockery as he looked at Yamato, completely ignoring Naruto.
Kabuto asked, "Experint? Who exactly is he?"
Orochimaru placed his hand on his rotted face and recounted Yamato's past from his days in Konoha.
When he lowered his hand, the half-rotted face had completely regenerated.
…
Konoha, Chūnin Exam Arena Stands.
"What? Orochimaru perford such inhumane experints?"
"My child who disappeared years ago without a sound… could it be…?"
"No way—don't tell there are actually people who can use Wood Release?!"
"That damn Orochimaru—not only did he kill the Third, he conducted such evil experints!"
Hiruzen's old face twisted in anger.
The information he had worked so hard to bury was completely exposed.
And worst of all… He wasn't even dead yet!
Beside him, Orochimaru looked unbothered. He already understood what his future self was doing.
Clearly, he was provoking Naruto—or rather, provoking the Nine-Tails' power.
Interesting. Far too interesting.
The future was shaping up to be extrely amusing.
