As Konoha shinobi arrived at the battlefield on the forest of death one after another, they felt the murderous oppression of two dangerous entities and imdiately beca vigilant against both of them.
So were on guard against Naruto cloaked in a strange chakra that seed to be the combination of Nine-tails chakra and Senjutsu Chakra, while the others were vigilant against the behemoth-like snake.
Resisting the oppression from these two entities, Sandai vigilantly approached Naruto. As he got closer to Naruto, Hiruzen noted Naruto’s clear eyes with no trace of anger or vigilance against him and breathed a sigh of relief, ‘Naruto has really not lost control.’ And couldn’t help but ask Naruto in surprise, “Naruto… what’s going on?”
In fact of Hiruzen’s question, Naruto could only scratch his cheek with an ignorant expression, as he answered, “I don’t know either Hokage-ji-chan… suddenly I felt that I have infinite strength and I could defeat all the enemies, other than this, I don’t understand a thing.”
“That’s really strange.” Said Hiruzen as he observed Naruto. But before he could get a closer look the nine-tails cloak on Naruto’s body dispersed, and he had no chance to understand anything.
What really happened is that when Kurama learned that this was all just an assessnt and the Akatsuki Organization wasn’t actually here, he naturally retracted all his chakra leaving Naruto and Hiruzen standing confused on the battlefield.
With the disappearance of the Nine-tails chakra cloak, the Senjutsu Chakra that Naruto had absorbed also disappeared he exited the Sennin Mode, and the serpent-like eyes returned back to Naruto’s original clear blue eyes.
Hiruzen was really confused by the changes he witnessed in Naruto, however, seeing that even Naruto didn’t have any idea of what was going on, he could only shake his head helplessly and put the matter aside. But he was really relieved that nothing happened during the Assessnt. Although the overall effect of the assessnt was good, however, the process was like a roller-coaster ride, full of ups and downs that frightened his old heart.
…
On the other side, as Fugaku ca beside Sasuke, he looked at his son’s state with a silent expression and stretched out his hand.
Looking at his father’s outstretched hand, Sasuke said with a guilty expression, “Tou-san… I… I have ashad the Clan!”
Fugaku shook his head and said nothing, just looking at Sasuke for him to take his hand. Sasuke did, and Fugaku pulled him up as the Iryo-nin beside him took a look at Sasuke.
While that was happening, Fugaku turned his head and gazed at the giant red snake present just beside him.
From up close, Fugaku felt the real pressure oozed by Garaga. The snake’s bloody aura seed to overwhelm even him, a war-hardened person. He has to admit that even for him, defeating this snake would be very troubleso unless he uses his ace, that is, his Mangekyou Sharingan.
While Fugaku was looking at Garaga, Sasuke turned his head in the direction of Naruto. Seeing that Naruto–who used to co last in the assessnts at the Ninja Academy–has now beco the MVP of this assessnt and is surrounded by dozens of people appreciating his strength, Sasuke felt bitter, ‘Damn it! I lost to Naruto!’
…
As the Hiashi and Hizashi brothers arrived at the battlefield, they hurriedly ca to Hinata and Neji and checked their injuries.
Upon noting that their children weren’t seriously injured, both brothers breathed a sigh of relief, “Fortunately, these are just so small injuries and will heal with just a little treatnt.”
After this, Hiashi turned his head and searched for Kuroto. Hiashi is really dissatisfied with Kuroto in regard to this assessnt because he believes that it is too dangerous for children. There were even chances that his daughter Hinata might have died in the assessnt if the giant snake or Naruto had lost control. He can’t believe how soone like Kuroto who is so level-headed can organize such a dangerous assessnt.
The only reason Hiashi hasn’t expressed his dissatisfaction so far is that it was Kuroto who organized this assessnt. Since Kuroto is also a mber of the Hyuga Clan, this matter can only be handled within the Hyuga Clan, the outsiders must not know about this else the reputation of the Hyuga Clan will be affected which is not sothing he would want to see.
Hinata noted the dissatisfaction on Hiashi’s face. She felt that her poor performance was the reason for her father’s dissatisfaction and lowered her head, avoiding Hiashi’s gaze. Of course, even if she looked down, her eyes couldn’t help but unconsciously glance in the direction of Naruto from ti to ti.
Beside Hinata, Neji glanced at the giant snake with complicated emotion. He had admiration that Naruto managed to make such a powerful creature his summon, bitterness in his heart that the snake is not his summon, and envy that Naruto got it, but not him.
Hizashi noted his son looking at the giant snake and he too turned his attention to Garaga. Looking at the behemoth-like existence, Hizashi suddenly rembered the suggestion Kuroto had put forward a long ti ago.
When Hyuga Shinobi face such giant enemies, they are completely helpless. Unlike the Uchiha shinobi who can awaken their Mangekyou Sharingan and fight back using their Susano’o, the Hyuga shinobi have no ans to fight back. Such monstrous existence can easily kill them just by waving their claws or sweeping their tails.
‘He was really correct… if I was facing such an existence, what can I do? The Hyuga Clan has no ans of fighting back against such existences!’ such a thought appeared in his heart as he sighed helplessly. Helpless because he knows that this won’t change. Those old fools won’t give up the traditions and rules of the Hyuga Clan for they fear results.
…
Similar to the Uchiha and the Hyuga, the other senior shinobi present in the forest of death also looked at the giant snake not far away from them. Everyone was curious, it’s not every day they get to see such an existence.
Feeling that he has beco so sort of circus pet, Garaga felt annoyed and snorted heavily as white mist spewed from his nostrils, “Humph!”
All the Konoha shinobi were taken aback by Garaga’s sudden action.
Perhaps Sandai could feel that the giant snake had no intention of harming them, so, he didn’t instruct anyone to imdiately run away, instead, he turned back to Naruto and asked, “Naruto… how did you sign a summoning contract with such a giant snake?”
“Hokage-ji-chan, his na is Garaga, and he is my friend… I t him in a place called Ryuchi Cave where Orochimaru had taken .” Said Naruto proudly, and asked eagerly, “What do you think Hokage-ji-chan, Garaga is very powerful, right?”
Hiruzen understood the ins and outs of the matter and nodded with a smile, “Yes, he is really powerful.”
Although Garaga felt happy that Naruto was praising him, he was also getting impatient because of the humans around, and spoke, “Naruto… since you are no longer in danger, I am going back to my ho to sleep!” and waited for Naruto’s reply.
Naruto nodded, “All right, see you later Garaga.”
Garaga nodded, “Hm.” And disappeared with a blast of white smoke.
Of course, Garaga could have gone without informing Naruto, but he chose not to. His intention was to show Konoha Shinobi that he and Naruto are really friends.
With the departure of Garaga, the vigilant Konoha shinobi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Sandai also exhaled a sigh, then he turned to Shisui and questioned, “Where is Hyuga Kuroto?”
