This Naruto is a player Chapter 007

“Where is this?”

The water on the ground reached his calves, the light was dim, and the air was humid.

Naruto didn’t like this kind of place.

He turned around and saw a huge iron cage, the bars thicker than a person.

He looked further inside.

Wasn’t this the Nine-Tails that had been frolicking like a silly dog during the day?

Naruto smiled, he already understood what was going on.

But, haha… why was it alone, no, why was one fox locked up here in solitary confinement?

As if sensing Naruto’s emotions, the Nine-Tails rolled over, making some noise, reminding Naruto that it was still there.

This made Naruto laugh out loud.

He laughed because the Nine-Tails in the training ground seemed to be different from the one in front of him. The little Nine-Tails in the training ground was like a silly dog, mouth open, tongue hanging out, pupils wide, running and rolling around like crazy, overturning who knew how many flowers and plants.

And now?

This Nine-Tails wouldn’t think that he was too busy cultivating to notice, would it?

Now it was actually pretending to be serious in front of him.

“Not talking? Playing it cool? Then I’m leaving!”

Before it could respond, Naruto turned and walked away.

“Brat.”

Sure enough, the Nine-Tails called out to him.

No choice, the Nine-Tails truly yearned for freedom too much!

This, veteran inmates who had been locked up in prison for decades, would certainly understand and empathize with.

What’s more, there were people to communicate with in prison, but this was solitary confinement, even more terrifying than prison.

After experiencing those two hours of frolicking, the Nine-Tails yearned for freedom even more.

If it hadn’t had those two hours, it would have been indifferent, after all, it had been like this for decades, it was already used to it.

But now, it just wanted “one more hit.”

“Brat, that place during the day, can you still go there?”

“Yes.” Naruto replied.

“Then… then…”

The Nine-Tails felt like it couldn’t open its mouth.

Who would have thought that the Nine-Tails, a tough guy, who had roamed the world freely and unrestrainedly all its life, would ever beg anyone so humbly.

“I, you see, I like to make friends. When I go there in the future, I can take you with me.” Naruto said for it.

“But, only one hour a day.”

“No, five!” The Nine-Tails stretched out a claw to bargain.

Naruto said decisively, “Only one hour at most.”

“If you bargain again, then I’m really leaving.” Seeing that it still wanted to cut the price, Naruto threatened.

“Hmph!” The Nine-Tails snorted heavily, signifying its agreement.

“In that case, I’m off then.”

“Wait, brat.” The Nine-Tails suddenly called out to him and asked, “How long is one hour?”

Huh?

Naruto was speechless. You don’t know how long an hour is, so why were you arguing with me just now?

‘This Nine-Tails is a bit lacking in common sense.’

Muttering to himself, Naruto explained, “The duration is about half of today’s.”

“Only half?” The Nine-Tails stood up with a rustle.

“You’re complaining about something free? I’m giving you that much time because we’re friends. Are you threatening me? Then there’s nothing to discuss, and I’m leaving.”

“You…”

The Nine-Tails forcibly suppressed itself and finally squatted back down.

Something was better than nothing.

“Brat.” The Nine-Tails wanted to speak again, but Naruto interrupted it.

“I’m not called brat, I’m called Uzumaki Naruto, you can call me Naruto.”

Naruto introduced himself, and then asked it, “What’s your name? What are you called?”

Hearing this, the Nine-Tails stared at him fixedly but did not answer.

‘It’s just a name, is it that hard to answer?’

Thinking this, Naruto threatened again, “Not talking? Then I’m leaving. If I leave, all our talk earlier will be for nothing.”

Naruto turned to leave.

“Wait.”

The Nine-Tails gritted its teeth and said, giving up, “Kurama.”

“Kurama, is that your name? Then we’re friends from now on.”

‘Friends?’ The Nine-Tails muttered to itself.

Naruto thought for a moment and decided he should give it some incentive.

He said, “As a testament to our friendship, I’ll let you go in and play for two hours tomorrow.”

Two hours? The same as today?

The Nine-Tails was somewhat surprised. If Naruto wasn’t here, it would have roared to the sky!

“Don’t complain that it’s short. You should know that it takes a lot of effort for me to even get into that kind of place. Even I can’t stay there for long every day.”

The Nine-Tails believed this. Maintaining that kind of place would certainly require a huge expenditure.

After understanding this, it instantly stopped hating Naruto.

In fact, it even wanted to ask what help it could provide to extend the daily time.

But it forcibly stopped itself.

It was the Nine-Tails, a tough guy, not a dog.

“Since we’ve settled it, I’m leaving. Wait, how do I leave?”

As soon as these words came out, the Nine-Tails almost died of anger.

You don’t even know how to leave, and you were threatening me like that?

“Hehe, just kidding, goodbye.” After saying that, he disappeared.

Seeing this, the Nine-Tails was still stunned for a moment.

“This brat.”

After a helpless sigh, the Nine-Tails visibly cheered up.

Tomorrow it could run around happily again.

It’s just that the time was a bit short.

The Nine-Tails suddenly thought of something. It immediately retracted all its overflowing Nine-Tails chakra, then converted it into pure chakra, and let it overflow again.

Its Nine-Tails’ chakra energy was rampant, and a child would have difficulty absorbing it and would experience side effects. This pure chakra was different.

After Naruto absorbed it, he could increase his chakra significantly every day.

Although refining pure chakra took some effort, this kid was worth it.

It just had to control the amount. There was a limit to how much a child could absorb daily, and this depended on bloodline and talent.

However, its Nine-Tails had a lot of chakra, and it could output plenty every day, so wasting it didn’t matter.

Doing this was definitely not helping Naruto, but helping itself.

Yes, that’s right.

Thinking of the “friend” Naruto mentioned, the Nine-Tails closed its eyes, wondering what it was thinking.

The next day.

Naruto woke up early.

His previous living expenses always appeared on the table when he woke up, so Naruto planned to go back early to get this money, to avoid any complications.

Before leaving, Naruto suddenly thought of something.

In broad daylight, if he walked all the way, he didn’t know how many hateful glares he would receive from others. Naruto was afraid he wouldn’t be able to resist hitting them.

So, Naruto decided to transform into someone else.

Thinking of this, he opened his panel and glanced at his chakra.

He was going to learn advanced skills today, so his chakra needed to be up to par.

But that one glance froze him.

Chakra: 2172/2172 (C)

(Increase 20 (Infant) x ( 1+ 200%+ 5000%) x 2 = 2120/day)

(Recovery 1% (Infant) x ( 1+ 200%+ 2000%) x 2 = 46%/hour)

How did it just double?

Naruto checked the more detailed messages and records and finally understood.

“So it was the Nine-Tails.”

Couldn’t tell, this guy was quite tsundere.

Taking the opportunity, Naruto glanced at the panel again.

Not many changes.

Hand sign speed + 20, Chakra control + 10.

The SSSSSS talent was still at work.

At this moment, Naruto had a deeper understanding of this unique SSSSSS talent.

This kind of thing was passive, it wouldn’t be immediately realized, but would be slowly realized.

Although the realization was slow, this kind of increase of 20 and 10 per day, calculated at a normal person’s max level of 100 points, was still terrifyingly fast.

Naruto knew it wouldn’t continue like this forever.

The game had detailed explanations.

Below 70 points: 1:1

71- 80 points: 2:1

81- 90 points: 5:1

91- 95 points: 10:1

96- 100 points: 20:1

101- 500 points: 50:1

The further it went, the more it multiplied, and similarly, the further it went, every point increase was a huge leap in strength.

However, this was not what Naruto should be concerned about at the moment; his task was to get his living expenses.

Untransformed → Boar → Ox → Dog → Tiger

Transformation Jutsu.

Bang~

After the smoke cleared, an old man appeared in his place.

It was the same old man he had seen a few days ago.

This old man was ordinary and a lonely old man, so he definitely wouldn’t attract attention. Transforming into him to go back would be perfectly fine.

Naruto looked up and down, it was quite similar. His max-level Transformation Jutsu was not to be underestimated.

Seeing that it was almost time, Naruto set off for home.

In the form of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.
