Naruto: A Thief’s Journey Starts with the Seven-Tails

Hot springs are the favorite relaxation spots for everyone in the ninja world.

"Ah, ah, so comfortable. Sure enough, coming to soak in the hot spring is the most comfortable thing."

"Yes. Maintaining the seal all day is really tiring."

"Alright, stop talking. Enjoy it quickly. We still have to go on shift tonight."

In the hot spring, three ladies were enjoying themselves to the fullest.

Little did they know that an "outsider" was mesmerized by the sight from a tree behind them.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. I have to say, different places produce different kinds of people."

"These ladies who live under the waterfall every day have amazing skin. There's no arguing with that."

Chiyama Gekko was a bit spellbound. Of course, he was thinking silently to himself. As a qualified peeping tom, he knew very well that he couldn't make a sound.

However, the seal they mentioned...

Could it be the seal of the Seven-Tails...

"Heiyu Ningzi, don't grope around randomly!"

"Hey, why not? Shalu Elite Ninja, your figure... Oh, I'm so jealous."

"Get out of here! You flat-chested girl!"

"Ah! I'm not flat-chested!"

These beautiful scenes are definitely worth paying to see, so I won't go into details.

"Alright, rest quickly. The seal of the Seven-Tails isn't very stable yet. Someone will call us to take over soon."

The female ninja who hadn't said a word all this time finally spoke. She was leaning against the side with her eyes closed, enjoying herself.

But as soon as she spoke, she immediately caught the attention of the other two.

"Tch! Zhiyin, what are you pretending for!"

"Take this! My Dragon Claw Hand!"

Suddenly, the peaceful hot spring became lively again.

Chiyama Gekko quickly composed his excited self and quietly left the tree.

He began to think about the information he had just gathered.

The seal of the Seven-Tails...

He didn't expect that coming to Taki no Kuni would actually let him run into this.

However, as a ninja village that owned a tailed beast, Taki no Kuni still had very strong defensive capabilities.

But since he had encountered this opportunity, if he didn't give it a try, wouldn't it be a disservice to himself?

Thinking of this, a glint flashed in Chiyama Gekko's eyes.

I'm going for it! For his dream of flying, what do difficulties matter? If things really go wrong, he still has the Flying Thunder God Technique to make an escape.

It's worth taking a chance! Maybe you can turn a bicycle into a motorcycle!

Outside Taki no Kuni.

Suzaku and Shibi were sitting on a rock, gazing at the distant waterfall.

"Shibi, I suddenly have a bad feeling. Do you think that jerk Chiyama is going to do something reckless?"

Shibi was slightly startled, then shook his head and said with a smile:

"Suzaku, you know Chiyama's character. He's extremely cowardly.

"For so long, he hasn't taken on a single mission above rank B and has only taken on very few rank C ones.

"In his words, neither missions nor money are more important than safety."

After hearing Shibi's words, Suzaku nodded slightly.

He was a few years older than Chiyama, yet he was still very familiar with Chiyama Gekko.

After all, the Gekko clan was also part of Konoha and had always been involved in intelligence work.

"I hope I'm just imagining things."

The place where the Seven-Tails is sealed is at the very back of the large waterfall.

The sealing location is inside the cave surrounded by the waterfall.

At this time, more than a dozen ninjas from Taki no Kuni are sitting in a circle around the waterfall.

Each person's expression is extremely solemn. In front of them lies a very complex Sealing Tag.

From inside the cave come continuous crashing sounds, obviously caused by the Seven-Tails Chōmei.

"Everyone, put in more effort!"

"The seal is almost stable!"

An elite ninja sitting in the leading position gritted his teeth and uttered words of encouragement.

Not far away, Chiyama Gekko, who was in Touton state, was pondering how to divert the attention of these Taki no Kuni ninjas.

So that he could sneak in.

After much deliberation, Chiyama Gekko decided to plan meticulously.

After all, there are currently too many ninjas maintaining the seal, and among them there are quite a few elite ninjas.

For a mere Chunin like him, it's extremely difficult to reap benefits from such a risky situation.

Moreover, even if he could sneak in, it was also a problem how to seal the Seven-Tails into his own body.

Thinking of the seal, Chiyama Gekko suddenly felt a burst of joy in his heart.

Then he left the sealing location, found a big tree, leaped onto it, sat cross-legged, and took out a Scroll with the character "seal" inscribed on it from his bosom.

"Hehe, the Sealing Jutsu Scroll given by Jiraiya..."

"Aiya! This is it, the Four Symbols Seal... Hehe..."

Seeing the desired Sealing Jutsu, Chiyama Gekko showed a somewhat sneaky smile, and his gaze turned towards the sealing place in the distance.

He began to conceive the next course of action in his mind.

First: He had to distract the people in Taki no Kuni...

Second: He had to sneak into the sealing place.

Finally: He had to persuade Chōmei to enter his body and then seal it up.

Well, it seems straightforward, but it's extremely difficult to carry out.

So, he carefully planned a series of events that threw the villagers into chaos and confusion.

It took him three days. Taking advantage of the convenience of Touton, he first stole all sorts of things.

From large items like windows and doors. That's right, windows and doors. Chiyama Gekko, being bold and decisive, actually took advantage of the night to directly remove the doors of half of the houses in Taki no Kuni.

He stacked up all the doors and windows in the center of Taki no Kuni.

As for small items like various ninja tools and food. For a while, everyone in Taki no Kuni panicked. This sudden theft incident put the entire Taki no Kuni on high alert.

From Genin to elite ninjas, they began to patrol continuously.

Coupled with dealing with the seal of the Seven-Tails, the ninjas of Taki no Kuni quickly entered a state of exhaustion.

On the contrary, Chiyama Gekko, due to this series of "unscrupulous" actions, actually experienced a slight increase in his attributes, which made him extremely happy.

During the daytime of these three days, Chiyama Gekko had been keeping an eye on the situation outside the sealing place.

He discovered that the sealing place of the Seven-Tails changed guards every eight hours.

And during the guard change, he had less than 20 seconds to slip in.

Of course, this was only under the condition that there were no other alarms inside the sealing place.

For this reason, Chiyama Gekko left the Flying Thunder God Technique formulas in the east, west, south, and north directions of Taki no Kuni. Once there was a problem, he had to run away immediately.

Finally, on the fourth day, he decided to make his move. Taking advantage of the ninja shift change time, he summoned up his courage and directly activated [Touton] Technique, then rushed straight into the sealed area.

Scared out of his wits, he stared fixedly at his feet, afraid of setting off some kind of trap.

But when he entered the sealed area where Chōmei was.

He realized he had overthought it.

Taki no Kuni never imagined that someone would break through the waterfall and get into the village, let alone reach the place where the Seven-Tails was sealed.

So aside from the spell that sealed the Seven-Tails, there were no other defensive measures in this place at all.

Looking at the tailed beast chained up in front of him, Chiyama Gekkō let out a laugh.

He laughed with extreme glee and slyness.
