Inside the Gato Shipyard in the Land of Water.
The ruins of the buildings destroyed by Whitebeard and Kurosuki Raiga and other Kirigakure ninjas have become Naruto's regular training ground these days.
At this moment, Naruto is blindfolded.
His ears are also blocked.
Even more absurdly, Naruto's nose is also blocked.
He can only breathe through his mouth.
His vision, hearing, and smell are all closed off.
He can't see.
He can't hear.
He can't smell.
Whoosh... But at this moment, a sharp breaking sound suddenly sounded!
Naruto, as if he had a third eye, hurriedly dodged to the side, and an unidentified object brushed past his forehead.
That unidentified object was a small stone thrown by Whitebeard.
Of course, the small stone is only for Whitebeard.
For Naruto's current size, this stone is comparable to half of his head!
Whoosh——
Before Naruto could steady himself, the second stone flew over.
But Naruto still didn't panic at all.
He dodged again.
"Gurararararara! Stupid son, you're making progress quite quickly!" Whitebeard admired Naruto's talent. There were originally a hundred stones beside him, but now there was not a single one left.
Whitebeard was very pleased
with Naruto's amazing progress.
Naruto's ears were blocked, and he couldn't hear Whitebeard's words at all. He just felt that his current state was very mysterious.
Even if all the senses of the body are closed off.
But he can still feel other things.
Just as the old man said... it's like having a third eye
, he can perceive the trajectory of objects even with his eyes closed.
This is the initial stage of Observation Haki!
'Big Fox! I think I did it!'
Naruto called out to Nine Tails in his heart.
During these days, Naruto was not only specially trained by Whitebeard, but he also had to run into the sealing space when he was sleeping.
Then accept the malicious special training from Nine Tails.
It's equivalent to him being beaten in two places.
His Body and soul...
Both are suffering!
"Kid! I'll give you a little power now, let me take a good look at what your current state is like." Kurama's voice sounded in Naruto's heart.
The next moment.
The chakra belonging to the Nine-Tails spread over Naruto's body. Naruto clearly felt that this was not his own chakra, that chakra was a hundred times his own chakra!
And this is just a little bit of power that Nine Tails gave to Naruto.
"Hmm?" Naruto's change caught Whitebeard's attention.
Because Naruto's skin began to show visible chakra.
That is a very special orange-red chakra.
"Is it that Tailed Beast Fox?" Whitebeard squinted his eyes, but did not stop.
He sensed that this chakra was "harmless".
But if Naruto shows any other abnormalities, Whitebeard will not hesitate to knock Naruto out.
And disperse the Nine-Tails chakra.
Nine Tails doesn't know what Whitebeard is thinking at this moment.
Nine Tails trying to feel Naruto's state right now.
"Is this the Observation Haki that Whitebeard mentioned?" Nine Tails was secretly shocked: "What kind of 'technique' is this? No need for hand seals, it's like a unique instinct of the body! It's different from the Kagura Mind's Eye of the Uzumaki clan."
Nine Tails is considered to be knowledgeable.
But Naruto's condition.....
Honestly,
It's the first time it's seen it.
"It's like a Kekkei Genkai that you get just by practicing!" Nine Tails immediately realized that it had said something redundant.
This is indeed very much like a Kekkei Genkai, and it is also obtained through practice.
If Nine Tails had this skill.
Then Nine Tails Wouldn't be afraid of Sharingan
Most of the abilities of the Sharingan require eye contact with the opponent to be affected, so why not just close your eyes? With Observation Haki, are you still afraid of being deprived of vision?
Or to say...
If a person's five senses are controlled and interfered with by the Sharingan, and thus pulled into a troublesome illusion.
But the Observation Haki, which is separate from the human five senses.
Can it perceive the environment outside the illusion?
Nine Tails, squatting in the sealed space, even used a big paw to rub its chin.
It is frowning and thinking.
This represents whether it, the Nine-Tails, can break free from the control of the Sharingan, whether it can no longer fear the Mangekyou Sharingan of the Uchiha, it is indeed a big issue for the Nine-Tails to think about.
"Brat! From now on, let's switch our roles."
Nine Tails said to Naruto.
'Huh?' Naruto was puzzled, and asked in his heart: 'Switch roles?'
"You this human stinky brat, how can you have no enlightenment at all? Do you have to let this lord say these words to make you understand?"
Nine Tails rolled his eyes and was a bit coy.
"The meaning is...cough cough! The meaning is..."
"Anyway...you try to attack me in the sealed space, and then I close my own five senses and avoid your attack."
Naruto suddenly realized.
'Big fox, do you want to steal the old man's Observation Haki?' Naruto was shocked.
Nine Tails instantly blushed like a fox.
The blue veins on his forehead were shaking violently.
It quibbled: "You stinky brat don't talk nonsense! How can this be called stealing? The tailed beast.....the tailed beast's is....., how can it be called stealing.....that's not called stealing, that's called.....that, anyway, it's not called stealing! Do you understand? Stinky brat!"
Naruto found that his blindfold had been taken off by someone.
He could hear the voice about the Nine-Tails becoming blurred.
"Pops?" Naruto, who saw the light again, saw that the whitebeard in front of him was actually the old man who took off his blindfold
"Gurararararara!" Whitebeard laughed: "Take out the things that are blocking your ears and nose! Stupid son! Congratulations, you have learned Observation Haki!!"
As an expert in the three types of Haki, whether a person has learned Observation Haki or not, Whitebeard knows better than anyone.
He knows that Naruto has crossed into the threshold.
He has already entered the door of Observation Haki !
"I have taught many stupid sons Observation Haki. Some of them…spent more than ten years and still couldn't learn, some needed several years to enter the door, some learned in a year.
"And you…" Whitebeard laughed loudly: "Stupid son, do you know how long you spent?"
Naruto shook his head.
Every day of special training, for Naruto, is like a year. That painful and necessary torture training has almost made Naruto lose the concept of time.
"Only two months!" Whitebeard ruffled Naruto's hair: "You've mastered it in just two months! Hahaha! You are worthy of being my son, you're a genius among geniuses!"
Whitebeard is not the kind of person who would suppress his own son.
If his son is excellent, then he will not hesitate to praise him.
Of course, he will not overly spoil his son.
Naruto's miserable special training can explain everything.
"Pops, it might be four months..."
Naruto decisively sold out Kurama: "Every day when I sleep, I will enter the sealing space. In the sealing space, that big fox also helps me practice Observation Haki.
"Oh? The Tailed Beast inside you?" Whitebeard raised an eyebrow.
He has some changes in his view of Nine Tails.
"Four months, still a genius!" Whitebeard patted Naruto's shoulder with a finger: "Do you know how long Marco, who is also a captain like you, took to learn Observation Haki?"
"Marco?" Naruto knows this person, he is Pops' first son, and also the captain of the old Whitebeard Pirate Group.
Naruto shook his head.
Indicating that he didn't know.
"Six months!" Whitebeard's smile became more brilliant: "Even if you add your practice in your dreams, you are still two months earlier than him!"
Naruto's eyes gradually widened: "Am I, so amazing?"
"That's because, you've put in two hundred times the effort of ordinary people!" Whitebeard said with a smile: "If one day you can return to the sea, Marco will definitely be shocked if he knows that I have adopted such a son! Gurararararara!"
"Pops, isn't that the sea over there?"
Naruto asked in confusion.
Whitebeard's gaze looked at the sea not far away.
He pondered for a moment.
Whitebeard responded with a somewhat reminiscent tone: "That is indeed the sea, but it's not the sea that I wants to return to, these are two completely different seas."
Naruto listened with some confusion.
But he still firmly said: "Even if You can't find the way back, one day, I will help You find it! I will go with You to meet other family members! Definitely! Definitely! This is my promise!"
"Gurararararara!" Whitebeard's face of reminiscence dispersed: "It's a deal then! Stupid son!"
"But... Pops, where did Karin and the others go?" Naruto found something wrong.
He found that after he took off his blindfold, whether it was Karin or the big sister, or Kakashi, they all disappeared.
Only a person named Uchiha Shisui was left.
Looking at the sea not far away.
"They have other things to be busy with." Whitebeard grinned, but didn't say much.
"I see!
....
Nighttime.
Naruto was waiting for dinner while practicing Ninjutsu.
Naruto's Ninjutsu talent is not weak, it can even be said to be a genius.
When Kurama no longer interferes with Naruto...
His learning progress is extremely rapid.
"Ninjutsu·Clone Jutsu!!!"
"Ninjutsu, Transformation Jutsu!"
"Ninjutsu, Substitution Jutsu!"
The three must-learn techniques of a ninja have been mastered by Naruto, and the chakra in his body has not been consumed too much.
"Then, it's...."
Rat! Hare! Boar! Ox! Dragon!
Naruto is clumsily forming seals.
"Wind Release - Great Breakthrough!
He took a deep breath and exhaled it towards the front. A gust of wind was exhaled from his mouth, blowing up a lot of dust on the ground, and even objects weighing one or two pounds were blown away.
"Awesome!!!"
"Naruto is overjoyed: "According to what Uncle Kakashi said, I have learned the Wind Release Ninjutsu he taught me! Next, I just need to speed up the hand seals process!"
Now Naruto knows four Ninjutsu.
They are Three body Jutsu and Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, these four Ninjutsu were all taught to him by Kakashi, and he was taught step by step.
"But this time.....why is Pops nowhere to be seen?" Naruto looked around in confusion.
The sky is already dark at this moment.
In Naruto's current vision, everything around him is dim, and only the faint Moonlight can barely see things.
"That Uchiha Shisui is also gone." Naruto scratched his head in confusion.
"Where did everyone go?!"
"Hold on!" Naruto's eyes widened, thinking of a possibility: "Could it be that it's already mealtime, but Pops forgot to call me?"
With this in mind,
Naruto hurriedly ran towards the direction where he usually eats.
He hasn't eaten anything tonight.
He's hungry!
This shipyard has already become the property of the Whitebeard Pirates, Naruto ran to a larger building inside the shipyard, which is also a building similar to a reception hall.
Mainly used to entertain guests.
Naruto pushed open a nearly seven-meter-high door with all his strength, shouting anxiously: "Pops! Karin! Big sister! Uncle Kakashi! Uncle Shisui! Leave some for me! I haven't eaten anything tonight!"
"Huh? What is this?" Naruto, who entered the door, suddenly found that someone had put a strange thing on his head. He instinctively reached up and grabbed it.
Found it was a small hat.
Even if you don't need to take it off, you can also feel its shape, like a small crown.
The shape is quite special.
Naruto turned his head in astonishment and found that Uzumaki Fuushi was hiding behind the door, and put the hat on him as soon as he came in.
The big sister seemed to know that he was going to run over.
"Happy 6th birthday, Naruto."
Uzumaki Fuushi showed a gentle smile.
The voice of her speech is also gentle as water.
Making Naruto stand still on the spot.
He mechanically turned his head to look forward, where there was a very large and long table, they have been eating here these days.
Now, not only is there a variety of dishes on this table, but there is also an outrageously large cream cake
The huge cake is several times bigger than Naruto.
The diameter of the cake must be at least two meters.
Its height is at least four meters.
"Naruto! Naruto! '
Karin holding a gift box.
Ran over all the way.
She smiled happily at Naruto: "This is the birthday gift that mom and I prepared for you! We have been doing it for several days! You can't.....ah? Why...why are you crying?"
Yes.
Naruto cried.
Naruto felt that he had followed Pops for so long, and even dared to stab a ninja's body with a Kunai, thinking that he was already a very strong man, and would never cry again.
But even he didn't know why he couldn't hold back that sour emotion.
And the sourness now is not grievance.
It's a kind of happiness!
At this moment, Naruto couldn't understand why he would cry when he was happy.
When you're happy.....
Shouldn't you laugh?
"I....I...."
Naruto was wiping his tears in a hurry, but the more he wiped, the more tears he had, and his sleeves were all wet.
"I even forgot that today is my birthday..."
Naruto sobbed softly: "I remember I just mentioned my birthday a long time ago, and everyone actually remembered it. No one has ever celebrated my birthday."
"Now, don't you have a family to celebrate your birthday with?" Uzumaki Fuushi smiled softly: "Naruto, we are family!"
Naruto nodded heavily.
He took the gift from Karin.
"Naruto." Kakashi's voice sounded, his tone was a bit complicated, and a bit guilty: "This is for you."
"Uncle Kakashi?"
Naruto looked at the scroll in Kakashi's hand.
"Your birthday gift." Kakashi suppressed the guilt in his heart, he smiled: "This is the Wind Release Ninjutsu I organized, C-level, B-level, A-level... Every Wind Release Ninjutsu that I know, I have recorded it in this scroll.
"Inside, there is also a very special Ninjutsu, actually I am not particularly good at it, but I know the principle of this Ninjutsu. I also know how it should be practiced...."
"And, this very special Ninjutsu....."
Kakashi paused, he continued: "It's the Ninjutsu of my teacher, which is your biological father!"
Naruto's eyes were as wide as they could be
"Biological father.....biological....."
Naruto murmured
"Even if you are not willing to recognize him as a father now, he is after all related to you by blood." Kakashi stuffed the scroll into Naruto's arms and said: "Including that very special Ninjutsu, there are a total of ninety-two Wind Release Ninjutsu in it."
"Among them, there are two Wind Release Ninjutsu added by Shisui, which can also be regarded as his birthday gift to you!"
Shisui not far away waved to Naruto.
Gave Naruto a smile.
"Gurarararararara! Come here!"
When he heard Pops' voice, Naruto instinctively wanted to dodge, mainly because of the actions during the Observation Haki special training, which were almost becoming his muscle memory
Fortunately, Kakashi reacted.
Helped Naruto to catch it.
"This is a birthday gift from Whitebeard." Kakashi stuffed the gift from Whitebeard into Naruto's arms, making Naruto almost unable to hold so many things.
"I....I...."
Naruto sniffed, he showed a brilliant smile, but tears were still hanging on his cheeks.
"Thank you everyone!!"
"Thank you very much !!"
The emotion in Naruto's heart is hard to describe in words
This is indeed the first time someone has celebrated his birthday, even the Grandpa Hokage has never celebrated his birthday for him.
Naruto still remembers.
He saw many of his peers celebrating their birthdays in Konohagakure Village, and they all had gifts from friends or family. At that time, Naruto was very envious, but he knew that birthday gifts were not for him, the "demon fox".
He was very eager for the Hokage grandfather to celebrate his birthday, but the Hokage grandfather was always very busy.
Sometimes, Naruto feels that he is not worthy of celebrating his birthday.
But today someone is holding a birthday party for him
his family!!!
"Gurararararara! Come and blow the candles!" After Whitebeard came over, he directly let Naruto pick it up. Otherwise, with Naruto's height, without using Wind Release Ninjutsu, he might not be able to blow out those candles.
"Stupid son! After blowing the candles, you will be six years old this year! In a few months, you should go to ninja school! By then, don't embarass the Whitebeard Pirates!"
"Yes! I will work hard! Pops!" Naruto took a deep breath.
Holding the gift, he quickly closed his eyes and made a wish.
Afterwards.
He blew hard towards the candles on the birthday cake.
"Hoo!!!"
The candles were blown out.
"Gurarararara! Let's have a banquet for my stupid son's birthday!" Whitebeard's hearty laughter seemed to collapse the roof.
He threw Naruto into the huge cake with one hand.
"This is a big cake made by my two precious daughters! If you don't finish it today, you won't sleep!"
"Gurararara!"
