Discussion: How the Nine-Tails led Naruto astray

The more you learn, the more you will learn.

Naruto is very perseverant. No matter who sees his growth, they will say this: persist, and then persist again. As long as there is hope, Naruto will never give up.

But he can still distinguish between what he can learn and what he can't understand.

Flying Thunder God is the kind that I can't understand at all. Rasengan is relatively simple to get started with, and now I'm stuck with only the last step. As for Flying Thunder God, I can't understand a word. Obviously, when Sakura explained it, she used words that I could understand, but when they were put together, it was a language that I couldn't understand at all.

Sorry, Dad, I can't understand it. Flying Thunder God is still your famous ninjutsu. I'll learn it after I learn Rasengan, Yin Seal and Diamond Seal.

Naruto now prefers to learn sealing techniques rather than Flying Thunder God.

On the training ground at night, Sakura has gone home, and Naruto stands alone in the center, with an unfinished Rasengan in his hand. He is covered in dust, and his sleeves have been torn by chakra.

But even so, Naruto still grits his teeth and persists, constantly trying to maintain the Rasengan that is about to collapse, with determination in his eyes.

Unfortunately, determination does not help much in controlling chakra. In the next second, the Rasengan in Naruto's hand suddenly explodes, and the powerful force directly hits Naruto, pushing his body to the ground.

His hand was injured again, but recently due to the development of the Diamond Sealing and the adaptation of Kurama's chakra, Naruto's body recovery ability is gradually increasing, and this injury can be fully recovered in a few minutes.

Naruto fell to the ground in a big letter shape, his chest heaving violently, his eyes staring at the sky.

Kurama couldn't stand it any longer, he slowly said: "You want to learn the Rasengan in two days like this is almost a pipe dream."

Naruto's breathing stagnated, and then a smile appeared on his face: "Kurouma, you're back."

He thought Kurama had just come back.

"Yes, I saw you failed to maintain the Rasengan when I came back." Kurama said lightly, "The Rasengan is not the Tailed Beast Ball, even if the maintenance of chakra fails, it will not cause such an impact. Obviously, your attention is not on ninjutsu at all."

The stability of the Tailed Beast Ball after condensation is higher than that of the Rasengan, because it does not require extra energy to maintain, while the stability of the Rasengan before condensation is higher than that of the Tailed Beast Ball, and it will not explode directly if the chakra is used incorrectly.

But even so, when the maintained chakra appears in error, the chakra formed into the Rasengan will still explode, but the power will be very, very small. Ordinary people can be cured by going to Konoha Hospital. Naruto, who has strong recovery ability, even just needs to wait for a while.

Jiu Lama lay in the sealed space, looking at Naruto through the seal: "So, share with me what you are thinking, let me help you check."

Naruto's breathing gradually calmed down, but he didn't answer, just looked at the sky silently.

Jiu Lama was not in a hurry, he knew Naruto's character, maybe Naruto was just thinking about whether he should answer such a question now.

About a minute later, Naruto spoke, he looked at the sky and said: "Jiu Lama, before you came back, Sakura and Kakashi came here to see me, Sakura also brought me dinner, hot, delicious."

Sakura's cooking skills were good, but she just ordered the wrong talent on the ration pills.

"So what? You are obsessed, think Sakura is more attractive, and like her more?" Jiu Lama yawned.

Naruto, the dog licker, has always been like this before Shippuden, no one can refute it, and he lives a very humble life, so Jiu Lama's guess is reasonable and well-founded, and he even thinks he has guessed it right.

But... it's not.

Naruto shook his head, his tone a little dazed: "No, Kurama, or just the opposite."

"Hmm?" Kurama instantly became energetic, "Tell me more."

Naruto thought about it silently, then slowly said: "I feel very strange, I like Sakura, every time I say it, I am very firm, no matter what others say, I will agree, because I always think this is the fact."

"But... when Sakura teased me with this before, I suddenly felt a little..." Naruto's face became a little tangled, "I feel sorry for Sakura."

Sorry for Sakura? Kurama was stunned, and asked almost without thinking: "Why do you think so?"

"I don't know." Naruto's eyes were blank

, "I don't know why, it's like at that moment, Sakura recognized me as a partner and teammate, I should be happy, but when she said I like her, I suddenly felt sorry."

"Kuroma, why? Why do I feel this way?"

Kuroma was silent.

Perhaps at this moment he should say, 'Because you don't like Sakura, you just think you like Sakura because you want to go against Sasuke', but he couldn't say it, not because of any hypocritical reasons, but...

Human emotions are inherently complicated. No one knows whether Naruto really likes Sakura in the early stage, or just to go against Sasuke as the rumors on the Internet say.

But Naruto does care about Sakura, well, he cares more about Sasuke.

Thinking about it, Kurama slowly said: "In fact, there is a very simple way. I don't know what it feels like to like someone, but it's not difficult to judge whether you like that person."

Naruto was stunned.

Kurama continued, "You can go directly to Sakura, look into her eyes and tell her that you like her."

"That's very simple." Naruto was puzzled. He had confessed to Sakura more than once or twice. "Kuruma, can't you give me some useful ideas?"

"I haven't finished yet." Kurama glanced at him and said again, "Then go to another girl and confess in the same way. Finally, compare your feelings when you confess to the two girls."

Naruto looked distressed: "It's okay to confess to Sakura, but it's a bit strange to confess to another girl. Weird, isn't it? And who should I confess to? "

"Exclude the girls who are close to you and have a big age difference, and choose any of the rest." Kurama said unscrupulously, "Let me list them for you. Excluding Sakura, the people you can confess to are Ino, Hinata, Tenten, and Temari. Well, that's them."

Tsunade and Shizune are definitely out of the question. They are both elders, and confessing is likely to be regarded as a prank and beaten. Among the girls of the same age, these are the four that Naruto knows and has a relatively good relationship with. Temari can actually be excluded, after all, she is in the Kingdom of Wind.

In this way, Naruto can only choose one of the remaining three.

Kurama showed a meaningful smile on his face: "You can stop thinking about Sakura for now, think carefully about who you should confess to, and test your own heart."

Naruto's breathing stagnated, and then he looked strange: "Kuruma, you... are you fooling me again?"

"Am I that kind of fox?" Kurama righteously straightened his chest, and the whole person was extremely righteous, "I admit that I do like to fool you, but have I fooled you in serious matters? Ah? Tell me with your conscience? Am I usually unreliable?"

Naruto touched his conscience and was speechless.

It seems true that although Kurama is not very reliable in normal times, he will not lie to himself on major issues.

Thinking of this, Naruto's face became a little distressed. He scratched his head and said, "In this case... it's still Ino, right? After all, Shikamaru and Choji are next to me, and the probability of me being beaten will be lower. Tenten... I'm afraid that Neji will beat me to death, otherwise Hinata is also OK. Although Hinata's personality is strange, she probably won't hit me."

"What should I do? Kurama, can't you help me with an idea?"

"No." Kurama refused without hesitation, and the smile on his face was almost uncontrollable.

In fact, this test method is not to test whether Naruto likes Sakura or not, but which girl he will choose after excluding Sakura in Naruto's mind.

It doesn't matter whether Naruto likes Sakura or not, anyway, Sakura doesn't like him. The point of this test is who Naruto will choose next.

Kurama's smile gradually became immoral.

Whatever you do, make your choice.

I'm looking forward to your final answer.
