Naruto: Who made him a ninja?

Xiuzawa pursed his lips, thinking, "Isn't that a bit too real?"

"You're sharp-tongued, leave no room for negotiation, and your head is full of tricks," Light said slowly, her eyes closed, unaware of what Xiuzawa was thinking.

"Even Tsunade privately said, 'Which bastard let you become a ninja? You're so unreliable.'"

"...Do you think so too?"

"No, other than not having as many tricks, I'm very similar to you."

However, to Xiuzawa's surprise, Light opened her eyes and said with utmost seriousness.

"During battle, I also enjoy mocking others, and once I make a move, I rarely show mercy."

Isn't that a characteristic of you Uchiha?

"And no matter how terrible you are, you've already left a mark in my heart."

Light suddenly revealed a smile, a smile so serene under the moonlight.

"I can never forget that you saved me, and I can never forget that you guided me when I was most lost.

You helped me regain my memories, you let me know who I am, and you firmly believed I was a good person when I was most confused.

You saved me, understood me, and knew me, and I will never forget any of that.

So, no matter how awful you are, perhaps to me, you are the most unforgettable person."

Awful?

Listening to Light's words, Xiuzawa didn't know what to say for a moment.

He had a strange feeling that this description sounded like she was talking about a 'white moonlight'.

Can a man also be 'white moonlight'?

Or an awful 'white moonlight'?

"Besides, didn't you say so?"

As Xiuzawa pondered, Light reached out and hugged Xiuzawa's neck, her face slowly drawing closer, even her breathing becoming clear at this moment.

"Everything you've done is enough for me to dedicate myself to you, so..."

Xiuzawa stared blankly at Light, seriously considering for a moment before whispering.

"What if I said this was a joke?"

"Then I'd still be willing," Light shook her head, her eyes so blurred under the moonlight.

"Who else can enter my heart?"

Saying this, Light fearlessly embraced Xiuzawa, her face pressed tightly against his.

Under the moonlight, their figures merged.

Slowly, they fell onto the bedding, and rustling sounds slowly echoed in the room...

With the fluctuation of the Flying Thunder God Technique, Xiuzawa returned home the next moment.

As time fermented, Xiuzawa could fully imagine what Konoha had become.

Especially after only one day, the voices in Konoha discussing him were probably the loudest!

After all, his performance in this battle was too dazzling, that power that almost single-handedly ended everything was truly breathtaking.

Even with Light's assistance, Konoha probably wouldn't promote Light too much.

On the one hand, Light herself wasn't interested in such things, and on the other hand, it was simple: Light was Xiuzawa's personal guard.

The two were considered bound together, so naturally they wouldn't be discussed separately.

This also led to Xiuzawa completely becoming Konoha's top figure, and it wouldn't be surprising if he became the top figure in the entire ninja world in a few days!

Some people were even vaguely starting to discuss the possibility of him becoming Hokage!

Ninjas admired the strong, and although a Kage needed to possess many qualities, the problem was that in everyone's perception, the Kage should be the strongest ninja!

The strength Xiuzawa displayed couldn't be explained by just a Kage.

"I still won't compete with Tsunade for popularity to avoid trouble."

Xiuzawa shook his head, not wanting to get involved in too many such things.

Tsunade and Yuugao, like him, hadn't returned all night, and Shizune hadn't come back last night either, while Karin had already gone out early this morning.

No one knew what they were doing, but after pondering for a moment, Xiuzawa quickly made a decision.

"I'll slack off this morning and take a look at things in the afternoon!"

As a working man, Xiuzawa wouldn't empathize with the boss.

"Sigh, it seems like I'm also considered a vice president or something?"

Suddenly, Xiuzawa realized something was wrong, he was the Hokage Assistant, which looked like 'company executive'.

"Then I should slack off even more, with so many subordinates not doing things, expecting me to do it? What a joke!"

Thinking of this, Xiuzawa slacked off even more comfortably, especially since he still had some things to sort out!

"Still resting? Was the consumption that great?"

Sensing the situation in his room, finding that Light hadn't gotten up yet, a mischievous smile appeared on his face.

Then, he focused his attention on his rewards this time.

"Storm Release, and Wood Release."

Wood Release didn't need too much consideration, his current level was enough for him to use it, but he was still very interested in the techniques used by the peak Hashirama Senju for Wood Release.

The application of techniques was the difference between ninjas and those Otsutsuki, and also the key for ninjas to defeat the strong with the weak!

Even if Xiuzawa didn't know if he was 'Otsutsuki-fying' or 'God Tree-fying', it all came down to bloodline transformation and enhancement.

Without accident, he would inevitably be able to stand at the same height as those Otsutsuki in the future, so the way to widen the gap would naturally be the application of techniques!

"But let's take a good look at Storm Release first, after all, this is the key I've been missing..."

Xiuzawa's other attributes were basically complete, and had even reached a sufficient height.

Wood Release possessed Water Release, Earth Release, and Yang Release, Blaze Release possessed Fire Release and Wind Release, Yin-Yang Release had also been fused, only Storm Release, this ability with Lightning Release attributes, was missing!

Acquiring Storm Release was equivalent to directly filling Xiuzawa's gap!

"Then..."

Thinking of this, Xiuzawa sat directly in the living room and quickly unfolded the rewards in his mind.

[Using Storm Release Comprehension (Darui)]

With the system's prompt, strange scrolls instantly appeared in Xiuzawa's mind.

The fusion of Storm Release was the intertwining of water and lightning, the product of the combination of two forces, such a force knot not only made Lightning Release more controllable.

At the same time, it could also make Water Release more powerful than ever before!

It could be said that Storm Release was a technique that combined the advantages of two ninjutsu, resulting in a more powerful technique!

"No wonder even Madara Uchiha tried to use Storm Release after activating Six Paths Mode."

After the information of Storm Release slowly digested in Xiuzawa's mind, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

Storm Release was a technique that combined the high speed and destructive characteristics of Lightning Release, while incorporating the high compression and controllability of Water Release.

Coupled with the application of Sage Art, it was no wonder it could shatter even Naruto's Yin-Yang Release condensed black rods.

In terms of power, Storm Release could probably rank in the first echelon within Bloodline Limits!

Of course, it couldn't compare to Dust Release, but Dust Release was a Bloodline Elimination.

"However, this ability isn't difficult for me, especially since..."

[Due to the host's own strong abilities and sufficient mastery of chakra]

[Acquired new ability: Storm Release]

[Current level: LV6]

When Xiuzawa fused Storm Release according to the 'formula' in his mind, he unexpectedly received a prompt from the system!

Xiuzawa didn't feel strange about this situation, after all, his bloodline had already mutated and was even close to 'biological ascension'.

And what made him happy enough was that he was only learning this technique for the first time, but his level had already reached LV6!

"LV6 corresponds to Jonin, back then I desperately added points to reach this point, but now..."

Now it was just a thought, simply familiarizing myself with the fusion, such a gap made him laugh.

"Then, let's start raising the level, there's something I've been storing for a long time."

Xiuzawa slightly clenched his fist, he hadn't forgotten that he had once fleeced Black Zetsu and obtained the formula for Truth-Seeking Balls!

Because of Lightning Release, he hadn't been able to proceed, but this time he had to try it properly.

"Is it dawn?"

Lying on the bed, Light opened her eyes.

The morning sun shone through the window into the room, and the little birds on the branches chirped non-stop.

Everything seemed so peaceful, but Light didn't want to get up at all, instead, she hugged the quilt, turned over, and lay quietly on the bed.

"So, he and Yuugao are like this..."

Light murmured, recalling everything last night, she wasn't shy, nor did she feel any unnatural feeling.

She had already made a decision, so there was no way she would regret it, and she even felt good.

Only...

"Isn't this guy tired?"

Light frowned slightly, muttering to herself, and when she thought of the scene that happened last night, she herself felt a little unable to hold back.

Last night, after Xiuzawa stopped, they hugged each other tightly and rested well for a moment.

Light twirled her hair with her fingers, pondered slightly, and nodded vaguely.

"No problem, I owe you anyway."

"Owe me?"

These words seemed to make Xiuzawa a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything more.

Only an hour later, when they had rested well again, Xiuzawa spoke again.

"Lady Light, shouldn't you pay your debt?"

"Pay my debt...?"

"You said it, you owe me..."

"..."

After several repetitions, Light had no strength left, and she had come to understand.

"This bastard is doing it on purpose!"

Light guessed in her heart that Xiuzawa might not like her so-called debt repayment, so he deliberately did this.

Understanding this, Light felt somewhat amused, but she also remembered it.

Perhaps she and Xiuzawa shouldn't talk about owing and repaying, it was okay to joke around usually, but...

"It seems like it's not very convenient to continue saying that now, is it?"

Thinking of this, Light slowly sat up, but soon she frowned, because she found her legs a little weak.

"What a bastard, it's not good to say things clearly, do you have to do this..."

She cursed inwardly, but soon she adapted, and she also knew that if it weren't because she was a ninja.

And there were still some special forces in her body helping her, it wouldn't be as simple as weak legs now.
