Chapter-76: Jealousy (3)"Whwhat kind of magic is that?"
One of the students exclaimed after withstanding the aftershock of giant Rasengan.
Naruto became so much stronger after the war, and he fought so high-level battle that he still yet to know his output of chakra. After all complete Kurama is dormant into his belly, so he yet to balanced his current power.
Currently, he is now stronger than the final battle with Sasuke Uchiha because of complete Kurama.
So, even Naruto was shocked when he saw the strength of his giant Rasengan. He did that because Jin Tiger told him, "You are a gold core student, you may show them Chunin or above Chunin level strength."
The truth is even Jin didn"t know the current battle prowess of Naruto. Jin Tiger maybe has the all type power from Naruto-verse, but if you ask who is most experience in the battlefield, it is undoubtedly Naruto who completed many dangerous missions and also the most successful hero of the 4th Great Shin.o.bi War.
Naruto was looking at his palm with a shocked expression.
"Seems like I need to do serious training to balance out my power. I miss Kakashi Sensei now, he would have helped me with this training."
"N-naruto Uzumaki, what type of magic was that?"
The instructor asked him. His name is Watson. He is one of the Advanced Instructors of the academy. He saw many kinds of magic because he is a teacher of the number one academy in the world. But he never saw this kind of magic.
"Umm... You see, this is a Juts- magic that my father created, and Pervy-Sage... I mean my master taught me that jutsu."
Naruto answered honestly while showing melancholic expression, he was obviously thinking about Jiraiya and Minato.
"So, it is something blood-line magic. Well, that"s explained why I never saw that."
Watson said. He didn"t inquiry anymore after seeing sad that expression from Naruto.
"He is strong."
Leo White thought inwardly.
"Wow, not only you have great knowledge of magic, but you are also strong. Really, it is enviable."
Valentina Strada complimented Naruto when he returned to student crowds.
"Hehe, you think so."
Naruto laughed while scratching his head while thinking,
"Well, thanks to Jin, I have knowledge of magic."
"Yes, how about it. before sunset, we will continue our talk on magic where we left yesterday at that restaurant. Of course, the treat will be mine."
Valentica said as if they were old acquaintances.
"Oh, you will treat me? Fine by me."
Naruto happily agreed.
Behind him Itsuki got curious.
"Hey, what kind of food you guys will be eating."
He asked.
"The noodles we ate last time. You remember, on the eastern side of the city?"
Naruto replied.
"Ho, you mind if I tag alone. I also want to have a taste of that noodles again."
Itsuki asked them.
"Well, I don"t mind."
Valentina positively replied.
"Well neither me."
Naruto said.
"Well, do not worry, I will bear the cost of the foods. Take it as treat from me."
"I don"t mind at all, dattebayo!"
This time Naruto said with spirit.
Like that team of these three created. Later in the history of the academy, they will be known as Three Giant Beast.
"Looks like, I have to train more. This academy has so many prodigies."
Leo White said.
"Yea, specially Spear G.o.ddess, Little Eastern Dragon, and that Fickle Blonde... those three are entirely different tier."
Xavier Nepolia who always seems to meek said.
"Fickle Blonde? Do you mean Naruto Uzumaki? Hehe, nice nickname, that suits him. Yes, I underestimated that blonde guy."
Shirin Shura said with a laugh.
"Hah, no matter how strong he is, he is not worth much to the great family."
Gauch snorted.
"If you can show magic with same strength without chant then say that."
Astonishingly, Shirin back Naruto up, who was fighting with Naruto just the other day.
"Yea, it"s bad to not recognized others strength."
Rita also said.
"Do not always be overconfident because we are from great families. It will be turned into our demise."
Leo White said that while leaving the arena.
Everyone except Gauch followed him.
"d.a.m.n it!"
Gauch punched on the wall.
"How the h.e.l.l that guy is so strong. He is nothing. And I will prove that."
***
It was evening when Naruto was returning to his dorm.
After talking with Valentica and Itsuki he returned alone because Itsuki has some family issue to handle and Valentica went to meet one of her acquaintances of this city.
"So, Naruto Uzumaki you finally back. I was waiting for you."
It was Gauch who was waiting for him.
"Ah, you are that shabby-looking guy."
"What did you say, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d... Well, nevermind. I came here to give you a warning."
Gauch said.
"What kind of warning?"
Naruto raised his brow.
"Stop, showing off too much."
"Huh, are you a kid?"
Naruto replied immediately. Why the heck he will stop showing off? And what he is showing off in the first place? He was doing the opposite, he was holding his strength so hard that it became so complicated thing to him.
"Hmph, you are just a lower rank guy, who has few talents. But do not underestimate the power of a great family. The amount of resources great family has which can help me easily surpa.s.sed your lowly inheritance in just a few months. So, take my word as an advise and stop showing off yourself. Because I will challenge you in PvP test by the next month and will take your gold core position."
Gauch told him with deep provocation.
"Well, do whatever you want champ! But you can"t stop me. If you have strength then beat me. I wouldn"t mind. However, do not bully me, if you do I will get you back, dattebayo."
Bully like him not new to Naruto. Because of his inability when he was a kid, he was bullied by many kids around his age. But Naruto never pulled back to those bully and fought back even though he got b.u.t.tered.
Naruto already had bad impressions on him. And it turned to worst.
He didn"t stand there anymore and try to pa.s.s Gauch.
Gauch got angry because he was ignored like he was nothing, and lost his cool.
"You son of a! Alright, you call for it, [4th Tier Magic: Anger of Silver Eagle]"
He shot his magic targeting Naruto"s back.
