Naruto: I, Naruto, Start With The Full-Level Shining Fruit

Originally, Naruto should have drawn number 1 and been the first to fight against Neji Hyuga.

However, it seemed the person drawing the papers had changed, and Naruto pulled out a 7!

According to the battle rules, the next person to fight him should be the one who drew number 8!

After all the slips were drawn, Anko Mitarashi returned to Hiruzen Sarutobi's side, and Ibiki Morino said to them, "Next, tell me the numbers you have in your hands from left to right!"

The person on the far left, Dosu, opened his slip and said, "8!"

Then Rock Lee: "1!"

Neji: "2!"

Shino Aburame: "3!"

Hinata Hyuga: "5!"

Naruto: "7!"

Sasuke: "9!"

Gaara: "10!"

Temari: "6!"

Kankuro: "4!"

Based on their numbers, Ibiki Morino wrote down their respective names on a board.

The final battle list is: Rock Lee vs. Neji Hyuga, Shino Aburame vs. Kankuro, Hinata Hyuga vs. Temari, Naruto Uzumaki vs. Dosu, Sasuke Uchiha vs. Gaara!

......

The next day, Onsen Town.

Naruto arrived in front of a hot spring inn.

"This should be the place, right?"

Tsuru々kan!

々 is a kanji substitution symbol, also known as a iteration mark.

It represents a different character depending on the previous character, and has a different pronunciation.

For example, 日々館, that's 日日館, and you read it 'riri'!

鶴々館 is called 鶴鶴館, and you read it 'hehe'!

This is a symbol Naruto couldn't understand. Was it invented to distinguish Japanese from Chinese characters?

Little Ai gave him the ability to understand Japanese, but didn't give him the history of the origin of Japanese writing, so he could only put a question mark in his head and walk into the Hehe Hot Spring Inn.

"Ah!!!!!"

A scream came from inside the inn.

Then Naruto calmly walked out and entered the men's bath on the other side.

He was so busy thinking about the question mark that he forgot to look at the signs distinguishing the men's and women's baths.

The men's bath was empty at this time.

He didn't know if the bath was unpopular with men, or if it wasn't the time for men to take a bath.

Naruto randomly chose a hot spring pool, jumped in, closed his eyes, and waited quietly.

In his new plan,

Hiruzen Sarutobi would die in this Chunin Exam incident.

Then Tsunade would return to become the Fifth Hokage, give him Chunin status, and help him complete subsequent missions until Pain's invasion, when she would gloriously retire!

And to increase the probability of Tsunade returning to succeed the Fifth Hokage, Naruto came here to find Jiraiya!

Once it was confirmed that the Third Hokage was dead, during the time when there was no Hokage in Konoha, the two advisors would find Jiraiya and ask him to succeed the Hokage.

Then Jiraiya would refuse and promise to personally bring Tsunade back to succeed the Hokage!

In this process, Jiraiya took Naruto away......

However, the original Jiraiya took Naruto away to train Naruto and protect the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki.

So Naruto wasn't sure if Jiraiya would take him with him this time when he went to find Tsunade!

But whether he took him or not, he intended to try!

Although he wasn't good at Talk-no-jutsu, he understood Tsunade, and maybe he could help with some things!

If Tsunade still didn't return afterwards, he would have to find a chance to assassinate Danzo......

The reason he didn't kill Danzo now was because he couldn't kill him openly, because killing Danzo like that would affect his future life and missions!

But if he wanted to carry out an assassination, he would need to track and investigate Danzo, and then wait for an opportunity...... He wasn't good at this!

If he had Observation Haki, it would be fine, but without Observation Haki, Naruto wasn't confident in his ability to hide his presence and avoid danger!

Once he was discovered secretly tracking the leader of the Konoha Root...... Naruto didn't think he could use words like 'I like Danzo' to fool the Konoha high-level officials!

Of course, he could also kill all the Konoha high-level officials, once and for all!

But if they were all dead... who would govern Konoha?

Naruto didn't have the idea of working hard and handling government affairs for a village. Otherwise, he wouldn't have relied solely on the system's power to become stronger, instead of cultivating himself!

Now he could understand Japanese, understand ninjutsu scrolls, and had mastered chakra control to the maximum level!

It's not like he could learn all the ninjutsu in this world, but learning some powerful ninjutsu was still possible!

But he felt that he didn't need to work so hard......

Completing Little Ai's tasks was already very hard, and he still had to cultivate himself?

Wasn't that worse than a beast of burden?

Naruto thought about how since he crossed over to the present, except for the two days he completely lay down after returning from the Land of Waves, he was either completing Konoha's tasks or completing Little Ai's tasks...... When did he rest?

And even on those two days of completely lying flat, he developed the abilities of the Glint-Glint Fruit, which was also overtime, and didn't count as rest at all!

"Hmm~"

Enjoying the pleasant sensation of the hot spring water adhering to his skin, Naruto couldn't help but hum.

This was probably the feeling of working~

"Hehehe~ Hehehe~"

"Hmm?"

Naruto opened his eyes, looking at his reflection in the hot spring water with a puzzled expression.

I shouldn't have made that obscene laughter, right?

"Hehehe~ Hehehe~"

Not me!

Someone else is here!

Naruto used Virtual Image to present the scene of the bath in his hand.

"Hmm? Why are there so many people?"

He looked carefully and realized he was wrong. This wasn't the image of the men's bath.

Re-projecting, a small figure of a long-haired old man squatting on the ground and chuckling appeared in Naruto's hand.

"This should be Jiraiya, right?"

Looking at the small figure in his hand, Naruto got up doubtfully and put on his clothes.

He casually glanced around and saw a white-haired old man squatting next to a wooden wall partition, chuckling foolishly.

He slowly walked to the old man's side, squatted down, and whispered, "Jiraiya?"

"Oh? You actually know me?"

Hearing Naruto call his name directly, Jiraiya looked at Naruto in surprise, "You kid... you look only 12 years old? How do you know me?"

Although Naruto changed his hairstyle and clothes, things like height couldn't be increased in a short time.

"Forget it, it's not important. Instead of hearing you call my name directly, I prefer you to call me the Toad Sage from Mount Myoboku!" Jiraiya said, standing up, flicking his hair, and then striking a pose that he thought was very handsome.

"......"

"My dad is Minato Namikaze."

"......Cough cough!"

Jiraiya squatted down again, pretending to cough twice, and asked, "Sorry, I didn't hear clearly, what did you say?"
