Naruto walked towards the contestant area, but while he was in the dark, he quickly used a shadow clone.
"From now on, it's up to you!" Naruto nodded his head towards the shadow clone and used the Body Flicker Jutsu to run out of the Arena.
On the other hand, the shadow clone walked towards the other contestants.
"Hey, Shino, it's your turn now!"
Naruto waved his hand towards Shino, shouting.
But just when Shino was about to nod his head, he heard Kankuro's voice.
"Referee, my puppet has not been repaired. I would like to abstain."
This instantly brought Shino to a standstill.
"Well, now it's your turn, Shikamaru!"
Naruto didn't even hesitate to push Shikamaru down.
"Hey, hey, Naruto!"
Shikamaru shouted loudly as he was falling to the arena. At this moment, Temari had barely landed on the ground.
But Shikamaru didn't get up. Instead, he looked at the clouds and started muttering.
"I really wish I could be like those clouds, nothing to fear, no one to work for. Just free and endlessly floating in the sky."
"Fighting a girl is quite tiresome. I really want to give up."
Despite what he said, Shikamaru didn't admit defeat, but instead got up.
Seeing his lazy expression, Temari couldn't help but get angry.
"Are you looking down on me?"
This was a problem with her and Kankuro.
Because they had been suppressed by their little brother their entire life, they had quite low self-esteem.
Both would get angry if someone other than their brother tried to look down on them.
"Hey, Sasuke, do you think Shikamaru will win?" Naruto asked.
"He might just give up." Sasuke snorted.
Naruto looked at Shino and asked.
"What about you?"
"Shikamaru might not give up so easily. Why do you ask? Because he is very afraid of his mother."
Shino answered.
Naruto folded his hands and nodded.
"Yeah! But have you noticed? There are too many Anbu members in the arena."
Sasuke looked at him with surprise and asked.
"When did you learn about Anbu?"
"Hey, what do you mean by that?" Naruto couldn't help but angrily grumble.
Sasuke folded his hands and sneered.
"I am serious. When did you learn about Anbu? You, dead-last, have never focused on the theoretical part of the shinobi during the academy."
"And, don't tell me you learned about them during the previous month. From the progress you made, it is clear that you just focused on training."
Hearing that, even Shino looked at Naruto with some expectation for an answer. After all, Naruto was truly the dead-class loser of the class.
Not because he was the weakest. If he were to fight, except for some Taijutsu experts like Sasuke and Kiba, he would dominate everyone else.
But when it came to the theoretical part, he was a total loser.
Naruto's face turned red when he thought about it.
He still remembered asking Kakashi about Nature Transformation at the age of fifteen while also asking him to make it as simple as he could.
That's why he couldn't learn Flying Thunder God. Talent was something that could be passed down to every generation.
But without proper knowledge and training, not everyone can utilize that talent.
Even if Naruto wanted to learn this in the future, he wasn't able to because he had too many things to worry about and too little knowledge of Sealing Jutsu.
Sealing Jutsu was one of the most important parts of the Flying Thunder God Jutsu because the whole marking aspect was all about Sealing Jutsu.
Mark was created through the use of an advanced Sealing Jutsu, created to open the spatial limbo between two points and pull the object.
This spatial limbo was created similarly to the Eight Trigrams Seal, where it was just a seal, but it contained a massive space inside of it.
On the other hand, Flying Thunder God Mark was created to punch a hole into the space-time and create a pull effect from the other side.
That's why a person didn't need to run into the space-time hole but rather got pulled into it.
Since the space-time hole didn't have any distance, the travel time between two points became instant.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be instant.
The Ninjutsu aspect of the Flying Thunder God was to apply Chakra to the mark, so that the user could activate the mark.
Without Chakra, the mark couldn't be activated, and based on the distance and size of the hole, the amount of Chakra required could differ.
For a user of Flying Thunder God, it would be easy to simply travel between marks.
But if that person were to take another person through the mark, it would cost more Chakra.
That's why his father consumed a lot of Chakra after he transferred Tailed Beast Ball during Nine-Tails Chaos.
But during the Fourth Great Ninja War, he did the same thing with Ten-Tails Tailed Beast Ball, but it didn't matter because he had infinite refilling chakra.
This Jutsu was perfect for someone like Naruto, but he never learned Sealing Jutsu, so he couldn't master it even when he got a chance.
Naruto quickly shook off his thoughts, put away his embarrassment, and said.
"I already told you before. A person's fate can change. My parents put a lot of effort into helping me learn many things."
"One of them is about Anbu."
Sasuke frowned because he knew Naruto's parents were dead. So, how could they help him?
Seeing his expression, Naruto mysteriously smiled and said.
"Sasuke, Chakra can do pretty much anything. Transferring information through Chakra is just one of the basic parts of the Sealing Jutsu."
He said Sealing Jutsu because people didn't know about Ninshu.
He touched his belly and said.
"My parents didn't just leave behind a powerhouse but also everything they could teach me."
While he did say that, his parents were literally burning with embarrassment.
Because they didn't do that. They literally didn't plan to transfer information through Sealing Jutsu.
They were just hoping to help him in the future and tell him how much they love him.
