Kimimaro was unmoved, and just responded calmly: "I believe in your strength." His voice was as calm as water, as if the life and death matters that Naruto mentioned were not worth mentioning in his eyes.

Naruto sighed helplessly when he heard this. He scratched his hair and secretly complained in his heart: This guy is really aloof. It's really boring to travel with him. When I was with him, it was as if the air around me was frozen. There was no fun at all. Naruto recalled the experience on this journey. Kimimaro always looked indifferent, rarely spoke actively, and didn't have much interest in the things around him. He practiced all the time.

Naruto paced back and forth in the room, his brain working rapidly, thinking about the next tailed beast to find. Now the chakra of the one-tailed, two-tailed, four-tailed, five-tailed, seven-tailed, eight-tailed and nine-tailed beasts has been collected. Now only the three-tailed and six-tailed have not taken any further action, and these two tailed beasts are in the Hidden Mist Village.

Naruto sorted out the known information in his mind. The three-tailed beast was currently in the wild, living in a lake in the Hidden Mist Village. The six-tailed beast was possessed by Yugao in the Hidden Mist Village.

According to the development of the original storyline, these two tailed beasts have appeared in the incident and have had different degrees of contact with him in the past. Naruto thought for a while. It would take at least a month to go to the Hidden Mist Village. But after careful consideration, he decided not to look for these two tailed beasts for the time being. After all, there are more urgent things to deal with at the moment.

The most urgent task is to find a suitable place to place the Medicine King Hall. In addition, the Medicine King Hall contains various precious martial arts, which are like stars, and each one is like a treasure waiting to be excavated. But now, these books are placed in a disorderly manner in the Medicine King Hall, like a pile of loose sand, and Naruto urgently needs to sort them out. This is not only to better preserve these precious knowledge wealth, but also to draw strength from them more efficiently in the future.

Moreover, the current situation has changed a lot for Naruto. Cultivation resources are no longer as scarce as before. There are a lot of resources in the Medicine King Hall, which undoubtedly provides a solid foundation for his cultivation. So he wants to take this opportunity to improve his cultivation.

Naruto always takes action when he thinks. Without any hesitation, he quickly walked to Kimimaro who was still practicing, gently kicked him with his foot, and said loudly: "Kimimaro, let's go. I know a place that is more suitable for you to practice than here." Kimimaro slowly opened his eyes, without any displeasure in his eyes. He had long been accustomed to Naruto's style of doing things. He just looked at Naruto calmly, nodded slightly, and stood up, ready to go with Naruto to the so-called more suitable place for practice.

Just as Naruto was walking out of his residence with Kimimaro, a beautiful figure caught his eye. The figure walked hurriedly, with an unquestionable momentum, straight towards Naruto. Naruto looked up, and after seeing the person clearly, he grinned, showing a mouthful of white teeth, and greeted enthusiastically: "Kurotsuchi, why are you here?"

When Kurotsuchi saw Naruto's handsome face and his infectious smile, she was a little absent-minded for a moment. She felt that Naruto was like a bright ray of sunshine, shining directly into her heart, and her original anger also dissipated. She calmed herself down, took a few quick steps to Naruto, raised her head slightly and looked at him, and said with a hint of anger: "Naruto, where have you been with Lao Zi these days? My grandfather has issued a warrant for your arrest throughout the village." There was confusion and a little worry in her eyes. Although her grandfather issued a wanted order, she knew that Naruto must have his own reasons, but she just wanted to hear what happened from Naruto's mouth.

When Naruto heard this, his eyes widened, his face full of disbelief: "Wanted me? Why?"

Kurotsuchi crossed his arms in front of his chest and pouted, "Don't you know? Lao Zi is a very important person to our Iwagakure Village. You took him away for several days. The villagers thought he met with an accident. Grandpa was also worried about Lao Zi's safety, so he issued a wanted order."

Naruto scratched his head and explained a little embarrassedly: "Kurotsuchi, things are not what you think. I just have some things to do with Uncle Zi, and if I didn't take Uncle Zi away at that time, I'm afraid Uncle Zi would be imprisoned by your grandfather now."

When Heitu heard this, his eyes widened slightly, his face full of confusion: "Imprisonment? What do you mean by that? Why did Grandpa imprison Lao Zi?"

Kurotsuchi couldn't help but frown when she heard Naruto's words. She knew that her grandfather valued the tailed beasts, and she also knew that when Uncle Murasaki returned to the village after many years of traveling, her grandfather would definitely pay special attention to him. But she still didn't quite believe that her grandfather would go to the extent of imprisoning Uncle Murasaki.

"Naruto, I know that grandpa takes the matter of the tailed beasts very seriously. He will definitely impose some restrictions after Uncle Murasaki comes back. But does the conflict mean that grandpa will imprison him? This is too far-fetched." Kurotsuchi questioned.

Naruto shook his head: "Kurotsuchi, you didn't see the look in your grandfather's eyes at that time. It was an unquestionable determination. He really intended to completely control Uncle Murasaki in the village. Uncle Murasaki also noticed this, and he didn't want to lose his freedom. If I didn't take him away, with Uncle Murasaki's temper, he would have confronted your grandfather, and the consequences would be disastrous."

Kurotsuchi was silent. She knew that Uncle Zi had a stubborn personality. If he really had a fierce conflict with Grandpa, it would definitely not be a good thing for the village. She was a little conflicted. On the one hand, she understood that Grandpa's actions were for the safety of the village. On the other hand, she felt that what Naruto said made sense.

Heitu frowned and asked, "Where is Lao Zi now? And where have you been these two days?"

Naruto scratched his head. He knew that if he continued to dwell on this topic, he would only get into more trouble. So he slowly moved to Kimimaro's side. "I can't tell you this, but Kurotsuchi, I have something important to do now. We'll meet again if we're lucky." As Naruto spoke, he raised his hand and waved to Kurotsuchi.

At the moment of waving his hand, he activated his Mangekyō Sharingan, and the powerful pupil power burst out instantly. A faint blue light flashed, and he reached out to grab Kimimaro, and then the figures of the two of them disappeared like an illusory bubble, leaving only a weak air flow fluctuation.
