Chapter 2: The Art of Explosion[Ding, Master, Master, it is midnight.]Accompanied by the ringing of the system's alarm clock, Naruto opened his sleepy eyes."Haha, to be safe, I specifically waited until the next day, when the number of uses for the Sling Ring increased by one, before coming to 'visit' your home."Naruto took the Sling Ring directly from his system inventory, put it on his hand, pointed one finger at the target location, and then slowly rotated his hand wearing the Sling Ring.Instantly, a portal of light appeared, showing the Hokage Office in the center. At this moment, the voice of an Anbu sounded."What is that?"Naruto had no choice but to quickly close the portal."As expected, there are Anbu guarding it. Then how am I supposed to put the TNT into the office?""Wait, why do I need to go in myself? I can just throw the bomb inside, reach my hand in, and activate my concept, right? I am truly a genius!"Thinking it through, Naruto quickly opened the portal, had the system place the 5 jin of TNT directly into the portal, then reached his hand through and quickly closed the portal.Naruto walked to the window."Hey, guess what? In the originally quiet night, suddenly there was a loud 'bang,' like someone had set off a super firecracker right next to your ear!"The molecules in the air were squeezed together, and the resulting roar made your ears buzz, as if thousands of troops were galloping past your ears, or the God of Thunder was beating a big drum above your head. The feeling was as if even the earth had been shaken.When Naruto witnessed the magnificent mushroom cloud rising from the center, his cheeks instantly flushed red, and he couldn't help but fall into a state of extreme excitement.That mushroom cloud seemed like the most breathtaking spectacle in the world, stirring one's heart."Ha, that's satisfying. If only there were more TNT."[Ding, the system's voice also seemed to match Naruto's mood, sounding somewhat excited: "Congratulations, Master, for exceeding the ultimate mission requirements by a huge margin."][Now changing the original mission rewards.][Superimposing beginner and intermediate mission rewards.][Congratulations, Master, for obtaining (Senju Hashirama style).]Naruto was pleasantly surprised. Overwhelmed by immense joy, he couldn't wait to check the details of the system's reward.Sage Body, and it's the Senju Hashirama style! Naruto knew this meant he would be able to enter Sage Mode directly without relying on Mount Myōboku and use Sage Chakra.His strength, speed, and the power of his jutsu would all be increased by several times, or even dozens of times. At the same time, his recovery speed and Chakra reserves would also see a qualitative leap.You have to know, Naruto already possessed an astonishing amount of Chakra, and now it was inexhaustible. Kakashi would probably be envious enough to shed tears.However, just as he was rejoicing, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis. He looked up abruptly and saw a black shadow flash past outside the window, its speed astonishing."Who is that?" Naruto was startled and immediately became alert."Wait, no, it should be the Anbu protecting me," Naruto thought, and felt relieved again.It was normal for the Anbu to be rushing to check on such a major incident at the Hokage Building."Heh, so sleepy. Let's sleep first. I'm still a 7-year-old child. If I don't sleep early, I won't grow tall."Naruto yawned, turned around, lay down on his small, dilapidated bed, and fell into a deep sleep.On the other side, the Third Hokage was saved by his good habit of not working overtime. It was just a pity that a few Anbu in the Hokage Building died, and, oh right, a bunch of unruly villagers also died.But what did that have to do with Naruto? The cute little Naruto was just keen on that beautiful explosion and wanting to complete the mission.The next day, the whole Village was under martial law. The Third Hokage was overwhelmed, dealing with the aftermath of the explosion. This was a very serious matter.To be able to sneak into the most heavily guarded place in the Village and detonate a bomb was definitely not something an ordinary person could do. From beginning to end, regarding the whole matter, Sarutobi could only think of one person.The door to the temporarily constructed office was pushed open, and a person with his right arm and right side of his face covered in bandages, exuding a gloomy aura, walked in."Monkey, why did you call me?""Danzo, you went too far with this. A few years ago, you tried to assassinate me, and I didn't deal with you out of consideration for our past relationship, but how dare you directly bomb the Hokage Building?""Sarutobi, I didn't do this. How can you slander me based solely on speculation? Besides, if I had that ability, would the position of Hokage even be your turn to sit in?" Danzo sneered and retorted.Hiruzen stared fixedly at Danzo, his eyes revealing suspicion and anger. He knew that Danzo had always coveted the position of Hokage, but he didn't expect him to be so bold as to cause such a huge commotion at the Hokage Building."Danzo, regardless of whether you did this or not, you must investigate it for me! The villagers and Anbu cannot die in vain! And your funding is gone!" Hiruzen slammed the table and stood up, his tone firm."Hiruzen, you will regret this.""Danzo, I am the Hokage."On the other side, after Naruto woke up, he found the atmosphere in the Village to be wonderful. He asked around and learned that a huge explosion had occurred at the Hokage Building last night, and quite a few people had died.Naruto was shocked and thought to himself: "Could it be that the power of last night's bomb was too great and I accidentally killed these unruly villagers? No, I have to go and see."Naruto quietly arrived near the Hokage Building, seeing that the surroundings were heavily guarded with Anbu members patrolling everywhere. He found a hidden corner and observed quietly.At this moment, he saw a familiar figure walking out of the Hokage Building. It was Danzo. Naruto's heart stirred slightly, and he immediately decided to quietly follow, hoping to find some clues."Anyway, I still have the Sling Ring. If things go wrong, I'll just run."Danzo didn't seem to notice he was being followed. He walked straight to a remote corner and met with several mysterious people.Naruto hid in the shadows, pricking up his ears to listen carefully to their conversation. He heard Danzo say: "How is it going on your end? Ensure the plan is foolproof."One of the mysterious people replied: "Rest assured, everything is proceeding according to plan. However, last night's big explosion seems to have attracted the attention of Konoha's higher-ups. We must act more carefully."Hearing this, Naruto understood seven or eight parts of it. He thought to himself: "It seems Danzowas also up to something regarding last night's big explosion."Naruto decided to continue following Danzo to see what exactly they were plotting. However, just at this moment, a Root member suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his path."Kid, what are you doing sneaking around here?" the Root member asked sternly.Naruto's heart tightened, but he quickly calmed down and said, "I... I'm obviously just passing by."The Root member was clearly skeptical of his words and was about to step forward to seize him.But he only saw Naruto open a portal of light on the ground behind him. Naruto leaned backward and, accompanied by a "Gana" sound, disappeared directly.
