The communication between the two tailed beasts takes place in a deep inner space, and people who are not recognized by the tailed beasts cannot know it. The entire ninja world does not know that Ichibi Shukaku and Nine-tailed Nine Lama just had an exchange. Wave of dirty deals.

When the chakra leaked by the Nine Lamas returned to zero, the two tailed beasts also retreated from the inner space.

Jiulama lay in the sealed space and grinned unconsciously: "Now we are waiting for the Chuunin exam to begin."

Now Naruto is still talking to Kai. Kai looks very sunny. Although he is not very clear-headed, as an elder, he can be said to be first-class amiable, well, too amiable.

Naruto and Shikamaru were almost pulled by him to jump frog, jumping around Konoha ten times.

Fortunately, although Naruto is mentally ill, he still has reason, otherwise he would have been persuaded by Kai's passionate speech to run to Leapfrog, mainly because there was a more rational Shikamaru beside him.

Now all he had to do was wait for the Chuunin exam the next day.

In theory everything is fine, just in theory.

At night, Kurama watched Naruto tossing and turning in bed and found it a little funny. Before, this kid seemed not afraid of anything at Ichiraku Ramen, but now he was getting nervous while lying on the bed.

Naruto closed his eyes and tried to force himself to sleep, but the more he did this, the more he couldn't sleep.

Jiu Lama looked at this scene: "It's not so much nervousness, but rather...fear."

It's so funny, Naruto is actually scared?Jiu Lama felt that he saw a wonderful scene, but unfortunately he couldn't save it without a camera.

But then again, people who are usually carefree and not afraid of anything are more delicate on the inside. Naruto is probably this kind of guy. Apart from being slow to Hinata, this guy is almost a bold and careful person.

Then he saw Naruto roll over and roll out of bed.

Black lines appeared on Jiu Lama's forehead. Forget it, just pretend he didn't say what he just said.

He thought for a while, but still divided out a small amount of chakra: "Hey, kid, come in."

Naruto, who was holding his head and crying, was startled and subconsciously looked at his stomach: "Ku Lama? What's the matter?"

As his words fell, his figure slowly emerged in the sealed space.

Jiulama was lying behind the cell door, looking at Naruto with a very arrogant look: "Kid, are you scared? Tomorrow's battle?"

Naruto, who had just come in and didn't understand what was going on, jumped up instantly, his whole face flushed red: "What are you talking about! How could I be afraid of that guy Neji! Or maybe that guy is afraid of me too!"

"I didn't say you were afraid of uncle... Neji." Nine Lamas almost stopped talking, "No, you are also honest."

Naruto suppressed his blush. He wanted to refute what Kurama said, but...that was the fact. He was afraid, but not because he was afraid of losing to Neji, but because he was afraid that he would not be able to avenge Hinata.

Ningji is very strong and can defeat Sasuke. This is what Xiao Li said. Xiao Li said that among the three of them, Ningji is the most powerful, stronger than ordinary genin, and Xiao Li's explosion was also seen by Naruto. , if he faced Xiao Li, it could be said that he would have no power to fight back.

Even though he had the Nine Lamas' Chakra and Psychic Techniques as two killer weapons, Naruto was still afraid.

This kind of mentality is actually normal. Think back to your mood when facing the college entrance examination. No matter how good your grades are, you will still be afraid.

Jiulama just watched Naruto's expression change from anger to unwillingness, and finally to loss, and even his eyes became a little weak.

Naruto looked at the reflection in the water, which showed his own image: "I don't want to lose, but...can I really win? That Neji."

The Nine Lamas looked down at Naruto. The reflection on the water reflected the figure of a man and an animal. One took the initiative to look at the reflection with a disappointed face, and the other took the initiative to look at the other person through the reflection with a calm face.

"Do you want to fight? Do you want to win? Are you still saying that you just want to become a chuunin?" Jiulama's expression suddenly became a little cold, just like when Naruto saw him for the first time, that energy that could make people The momentum of not daring to move.

Naruto was stunned and subconsciously looked up at Nine Lamas: "What?"

"Which one?" Jiulama stood up, powerful chakra boiling in the sealed space. Without the restriction of the seal, Naruto might not be able to hold on for even one second.

Gritting his teeth, Naruto's eyes were full of stubbornness: "I want to win!"

Kurama grinned with a cruel smile: "If you don't win, there is no point in fighting. If you lose, it will be useless even if you become a chuunin, so you want to win... right?"

No one fights to lose, and no one is chosen to be a Jonin because losing looks ugly. Whether he wants to fight or wants to become stronger, all he wants is to win.

There is no point in fighting if you lose, so I want to win.

"Yeah." Naruto nodded firmly.

"Then why are you afraid?" Jiulama asked with a grin, "The enemy is one, and you are also one. What is there to be afraid of?"

"Retreating will only lead to aging, and timidity will lead to death."

This sentence is what Zangetsu said to Ichigo in the Bleach anime. It is a very simple sentence. There does not seem to be anything strange about it. This is just because the environment we are in is different.

If the place you are in is a dangerous place where you must fight, if you fail once, you will die, if you fail to win, all living beings will be destroyed, then can you muster the courage to fight?Fight to win?

Most people on earth can't do it, but in this world, a world made up of fighting among ninjas, this sentence applies to almost all ninjas who are not weak.

No ninja becomes stronger because of retreating, and timid people will not get the chance to become stronger. Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, etc., none of the twelve strong ones in the anime are not retreating or being afraid. And growing.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, a great ninja, surrendered to foreign enemies for the so-called peace of his village. The moment he retreated, he was no longer a ninja, but a simple politician. He would think about gains and losses, not victory. Achieve growth.

If he hadn't died on the battlefield, Sarutobi Hiruzen would have been just an ordinary old man.

To a certain extent, Orochimaru gave his master the final dignity.

So when I think of this Nine Lamas, I find it funny. Konoha used to be so proud. There were two ninjas who were the best in the ninja world. The Nine Lamas were called natural disasters. Wasn't it because they were arrested by those two people as if they were playing.

And now, Konoha doesn't even dare to face him. It's so ridiculous that they want to rely on a kid to check him. If Naruto didn't impress the Nine Lamas in the original work, and when Naruto's chakra is absorbed by the Nine Lamas, the entire Ninja The world will fall into the rule of Otsutsuki Kaguya.

Ridiculous politics.

He, Sarutobi Hiruzen, had long forgotten what a ninja was. He regarded himself as a leader, a ridiculous leader who relied on ignorance.

The events in the original work happened too coincidentally. If there was even the slightest problem in any of them, the whole story would collapse. And now that he, Nine Lamas, is no longer Nine Lamas, and there have been changes in the script, why should he put his hope in a On ridiculous leaders?

Naruto's growth is still continuing, but it will no longer be the Nine Lamas who will accompany him.

As for Sasuke, Kurama doesn't have the slightest fondness for this brat from the Uchiha clan. If he does, it's based on Sarana.

"Retreating will only lead to aging... timidity will lead to death..." Naruto repeated these two sentences with a trance in his eyes, as if he had grasped something vaguely, but it seemed that it was just a breeze and he could not let go.

Jiu Lama can understand. After all, this kid is still young. If he is in the future, he should be able to understand the meaning of this sentence.

But don't worry, Naruto's growth started from Shippuden, and now it is his home field of Kurama.

"Okay, if you still have questions, think of the answers yourself." The Nine Lama turned over, looking a little salty, "If you can't think of it, go to the place where the dream begins. There may be the answer you want."

There is no answer to this matter itself. People who are used to retreating will still retreat no matter how much they try to persuade him. People who live in fear can only live in the shadows all their lives. What Naruto needs is not chicken soup, but an answer.

Naruto, who was in a trance, exited the sealed space. He did not ask the Nine Lamas why he knew this, but lay on the bed with questions that he seemed to understand.

Perhaps because he had something to think about in his mind, Naruto temporarily forgot about his fear of falling asleep. As for whether he could understand it, it was up to him.

Jiulama watched Naruto sleep with satisfaction, and closed his eyes. In the dark sealed space, only the paper sealing the cell door glowed slightly, and he could vaguely sense a piece of paper that did not belong to Naruto and Jiulama. The chakra is throbbing.

……

After thinking about it all night, Naruto still didn't understand the meaning of Jiulama's words. He just felt that it fit very well, but he didn't know why it fit.

In the morning, for the first time, Naruto did not oversleep, but he was still a little confused when he woke up.

After washing up, he took his ninja bag and headed to the venue for the third Chunin Exam. It was the largest venue in Konoha. It could seat thousands of spectators. Even standing on the edge of Konoha, you could see a corner of the venue. , there are also seats specially prepared for high-ranking people above, and the entire venue can be said to exist for exhibition games.

Of course, this place won't be open when nothing happens.

Naruto walked out of the house and looked at the playing field from a distance. He felt that he could hear the voices of the spectators on the field, as if they were disgusted with himself.

Naruto lowered his head and did not dare to look, with melancholy and hesitation on his face. He suddenly doubted whether he should be there, because except for Mr. Kakashi and the others, not many people in the whole village welcomed him.

He lifted his feet and walked forward. He should be close to the venue, but Naruto felt that he was getting further and further away from there.

The morning light shines from the east, falling on Naruto through the gap between the house and the trees, leaving a long shadow behind him.

Only vaguely, the shadow seemed to change into the shape of Kyuubi. He wiped his eyes, but found that it was just an illusion. There was only his shadow behind Naruto.
