Chapter 183 Naruto: This manga is too random! Sasuke: There are such amazing shops! Let's open
Chapter 183 Naruto: This manga is too random! Sasuke: There are such amazing shops! Let's open a can!
As Naruto was thinking this, his mind was immediately flooded with a wealth of knowledge, leaving him no time to think about anything else.
Whether it was sealing techniques or knowledge like the Absorption Palm, Naruto Uzumaki digested it all in an instant.
My head feels a little throbbing.
But the next second, Naruto rubbed his head.
My head feels a bit swollen and uncomfortable.
"If it's chakra, that's fine, but for knowledge-based skills, it's best to take it one step at a time."
Seeing Naruto rubbing his head, Lin Mo gently shook his head and said, making Naruto make a bitter face: "Shopkeeper, you should have said so beforehand."
Lin Mo: "."
"call."
The next second, Naruto Uzumaki breathed a sigh of relief: "But thankfully, my head doesn't hurt too much. I've mastered both the sealing techniques and the 'Blowing Hand' technique."
"There are only two jars left."
As he spoke, Naruto Uzumaki glanced at the remaining two jars.
Without the slightest hesitation, they decisively knocked it all open.
Two loud "bangs".
The last two jars broke.
A manga book familiar to Naruto Uzumaki and a bag of Momotaro rice balls fell to the ground.
"Manga and Momotaro rice balls?!"
Upon seeing these two items, Naruto's expression suddenly turned to surprise and delight.
This is good stuff.
The fact that he now has the money to open the can is a message about the future conveyed by the comic.
Now that comics have been released, it means I can get more information.
As for Momotaro rice balls, they are a great way to tame spirit beasts.
The bag of Momotaro rice balls that I gave to Orochimaru earlier has been replenished.
That feels so good.
"Shopkeeper, how many chapters are in this comic?"
The next second, Naruto Uzumaki looked at Lin Mo and hurriedly asked, "Is this a sequel to the original manga?"
"Um."
Lin Mo glanced at it and nodded, saying, "It's between ninety and one hundred chapters."
"what?"
Hearing this, Naruto Uzumaki looked bewildered: "Ninety to one hundred chapters? What about the previous thirty or forty? Shouldn't the manga be starting from the next chapter, or even up to the thirtieth?"
I haven't even looked at the 30s and 40s yet, and it's already jumping to 90s and 100s?
"No, the number of comic book volumes is random."
Lin Mo gently shook his head and said, "You were lucky to get the first and second volumes consecutively before, but you will get other volumes of the comics as well."
"For example, the teenth or even the fiftieth or sixtieth volume."
Naruto Uzumaki: "."
Upon hearing this, Naruto Uzumaki was speechless.
Damn it, is there really such a thing?
Subconsciously, Naruto Uzumaki started flipping through the comic book in his hand.
"It's content I haven't seen before."
After glancing at it twice, Naruto suddenly narrowed his eyes.
Surprisingly, it started with Kakashi-sensei.
"etc."
The next second, Naruto Uzumaki seemed to have seen something shocking. His eyes widened, and he exclaimed with a look of utter disbelief, "You big pervert?!"
Lin Mo: "."
Upon hearing Naruto's words, Lin Mo glanced at him.
He immediately knew who Naruto Uzumaki was talking about.
"The teacher that Kakashi-sensei introduced to me, could he be a pervert?"
Naruto Uzumaki turned green as he instantly recalled what Kakashi-sensei had told him not long ago.
"Ugh."
Thinking that he would be meeting Kakashi-sensei in an hour, Naruto Uzumaki felt it was time to leave.
After all, he still needed to go find Sasuke.
As for comics, I'll do that when I have time tonight.
Or you can take it out and look at it when you have a spare moment while you're on the go.
Thinking this to himself, Naruto Uzumaki quickly said goodbye to Lin Mo and ran off in a hurry.
Kakashi-sensei said that Sasuke is in a deep sleep in the hospital.
They should be awake by now.
Soon, Naruto Uzumaki arrived at the hospital.
"Sasuke!"
Naruto, panting heavily, pushed open the door to Sasuke's hospital room and rushed inside.
Inside the room, Sasuke was no longer resting on the bed, but standing by the window, seemingly deep in thought.
Upon hearing Naruto's voice, Sasuke instinctively turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Huh? Where's Sakura?"
Naruto was curious when he noticed Sakura wasn't there.
Sasuke's cursed seal suddenly intensified his pain during the preliminary rounds, causing him to finish both matches exhausted.
Although they successfully advanced.
However, he was taken away and sealed by Kakashi-sensei, and was also arranged to be hospitalized for rest.
"Forget it, let's just ignore her."
The next second, Naruto Uzumaki quickly waved his hand and said, "I have a way to remove the cursed seal on your neck, Sasuke."
"What?!"
When Sasuke heard Naruto say he had a way to solve the cursed seal problem, his face suddenly showed astonishment: "You're saying you can seal the cursed seal?"
You must be joking.
This cursed seal, even though Kakashi himself applied it yesterday, couldn't be completely sealed.
Because he was seriously injured at the time, and worried that his body couldn't handle it, Kakashi-sensei didn't ask the Hokage to come and reinforce the seal for him.
But just one night later, Naruto Uzumaki said he had a solution.
"yes!"
Naruto patted his chest smugly, his tone brimming with confidence: "I've just mastered a Four Symbols Sealing Technique, which can be used to seal the cursed seal on you!"
"This cursed seal has been causing you pain. I've sealed it away for you, so you don't have to worry anymore!"
Upon hearing these words, Sasuke's heart pounded, and a tremendous storm surged within him.
Sealing spell.
Can he really get rid of this strange and dangerous force?
The existence of the cursed mark indeed brought him immense suffering.
Especially these days, every time it flares up, the excruciating pain is simply unbearable.
At the same time, this cursed seal granted him unprecedented power.
Whenever he uses the curse seal, he can feel an indescribable power flowing through his body.
That power made him feel incredibly strong, capable of overwhelming everything.
This power brought him one step closer to his goal of revenge.
For a moment, Sasuke fell silent.
His brow furrowed slightly, his heart caught in a contradiction and struggle.
Although this cursed seal is dangerous, it has indeed made him stronger.
Does he really want to lose this power?
Losing this shortcut to power?
Seeing Sasuke's silence, Naruto was immediately puzzled.
That's strange, Sasuke shouldn't be reacting like this.
You should be happy to hear that the cursed seal can be sealed!
Why are you not saying a word now?
And why did he show such a complex expression?
"Hey, Sasuke, what's wrong?"
Naruto scratched his head, looking at Sasuke with a puzzled expression and asking curiously, "Didn't you say you've been in a lot of pain? I can help you solve this problem, shouldn't you be happy?"
Sasuke did not respond to Naruto's words, but instead frowned and fell into deep thought.
At this moment, his inner struggle prevented him from making a decision immediately.
He wanted to become stronger, he wanted revenge, and the cursed seal showed him the possibility of achieving great power.
Naruto became even more puzzled when he saw that Sasuke remained silent.
He immediately stepped forward, patted Sasuke on the shoulder, and said speechlessly, "Hey, Sasuke, I'm trying to help you! What are you thinking?"
Upon hearing this, Sasuke slowly raised his head, his gaze towards Naruto somewhat complicated.
His desire for power and fear of losing control were intertwined, creating a profound contradiction within him.
"Naruto."
Sasuke's voice was tinged with hesitation and complexity as he whispered, "This cursed seal, though dangerous, has made me stronger."
"But even the strongest comes at a price!"
Naruto frowned upon hearing Sasuke's words.
So, it turned out just as he thought?
However, this problem can be completely solved.
Looking at Sasuke, Naruto Uzumaki said seriously, "Are you really willing to take such a big risk for power? We're comrades, and I don't want to see you suffer because of this cursed seal anymore!"
After returning to the village, he and Sasuke got along well for a while.
He felt that he also needed help.
Sasuke is a ready-made helper.
Although he can be arrogant at times, he thinks he's pretty reliable.
At the very least, they are willing to listen to him.
That's why he took out a vibrant apple and gave it to Sasuke earlier.
Upon hearing Naruto's words, Sasuke did not respond, but instead fell into deep thought once again.
"This cursed seal can make you stronger, but it comes with risks."
Naruto sighed and said, "I can tell you a risk-free way."
"Is there no way to increase risk?"
Upon hearing Naruto's words, Sasuke slightly raised his head, his eyes filled with suspicion and confusion.
He frowned, not understanding what Naruto meant by "a risk-free method".
Things are never that simple in the ninja world.
Becoming stronger always comes at a great cost and requires great trials; there are no shortcuts.
For example, he has now obtained this curse mark.
Naruto, however, narrowed his eyes as he looked at Sasuke: "Not bad! I've found a magical place—the Jar Shop!"
"You'd never guess that you can become stronger there without taking any real danger!"
"A jar shop?"
Sasuke frowned even more deeply, his face full of confusion.
He didn't quite understand.
"right!"
Naruto nodded eagerly, his eyes gleaming with excitement: "That shop has lots of jars, and each jar contains something different—maybe ninjutsu, weapons, or even rare bloodline limits!"
"And that's where I get my power!"
Upon hearing this, Sasuke's eyes widened in shock, and an incredulous feeling surged within him.
He had never heard of such a place, where becoming stronger could be so simple?
Is Naruto Uzumaki joking?
"How is that possible?"
Sasuke murmured to himself, his face full of confusion and shock.
Naruto, noticing Sasuke's suspicion, shrugged and said, "Why not? Let's not talk about the distant past, just look at the recent past. Did you see me take out that Xuanzhong Ruler that I used to knock Kiba away yesterday? No, right?"
"This is because I found it when I opened a jar at the shop after returning to the village."
"The power of that Xuanzhong Ruler is terrifying. It's bound to me, so I can easily pick it up, but you can't. You're pressed to the ground by the Xuanzhong Ruler."
"Yesterday was the first time I tested the power of the Xuanzhong Ruler. I didn't expect it to be so powerful, and it gave me quite a shock."
Upon hearing Naruto's words, Sasuke's pupils constricted sharply.
He did notice something unusual about the weapon Naruto used yesterday.
I never expected it to have such an origin.
That makes sense now.
Why was he unable to move due to the pressure of the Xuanzhong Ruler, while Naruto could easily hold it?
So that's why.
Even so, he still found it unbelievable to hear Naruto tell him its origin.
"Did you really open this from that jar shop?"
Sasuke's voice trembled slightly as he asked the same question again, sounding incredulous.
He knew Naruto couldn't possibly lie to him.
But he still found it hard to believe.
"Of course! Not only that, my power, ninjutsu, and even those strange gadgets all came from that jar!"
Naruto squinted, his voice brimming with pride: "And, I also got Charmander! You remember, right? That little guy who's always been with me. It came from the jar shop too! It hatched from an egg I opened!"
"That's not a summoned beast, you know. Weren't you all very curious about it? I'll tell you its origin now."
Upon hearing Naruto's words, Sasuke fell silent.
He was very curious when the little fire dragon first appeared.
It's neither a summoned beast nor an animal.
So that's the reason.
He also remembered the apple that Naruto had given him before, which instantly revived him.
In addition, there is the power displayed by Naruto Uzumaki.
He fought Orochimaru.
When he first teamed up with Naruto, Naruto was very strong, and he thought it might be because Naruto worked hard.
However, the power he displayed later in the Chunin Exams was nothing like what a genius could possibly show.
It was far beyond what he had imagined, which shocked him greatly. He wondered how Naruto Uzumaki had mastered it.
Although he was curious and confused, he did not press the matter.
Unexpectedly, all of this came from the magical jar shop.
It's important to know that when Naruto was on a mission to conquer the village, he couldn't even fight Zabuza, the Demon King.
However, at the Chunin Exams venue, one could actually fight the terrifying Orochimaru.
Even with further progress, it's impossible to reach this level in such a short time.
All of this is actually related to the "jar shop" that Naruto mentioned.
"Konoha Village actually has such a mysterious shop?"
For a moment, Sasuke muttered to himself, his eyes filled with shock and confusion.
If we accept Naruto's explanation, then what is the purpose of this small jar shop?
And why is he still not famous?
Shouldn't this cause a huge uproar in Konoha Village?
"Of course!"
Hearing Sasuke's words, Naruto nodded: "You might not believe it, but that was the first time I'd ever heard of this shop."
"Actually, it wasn't just me opening the cans; other people did too."
"For example, the team led by Professor Matt Kee that we met."
"That guy who's always in Lin Mo's shop, he seems to have even more stuff than me."
"No wonder."
Upon hearing Naruto's words, the Uchiha paused for a moment, then said softly, "So the jars you were talking about back then were the jars from this shop."
He remembers it very clearly.
When Naruto Uzumaki and Rock Lee were talking, they mentioned the word "jar".
At the time, he didn't understand why and was too lazy to ask.
I never expected it to be like this.
According to Naruto Uzumaki.
Even the powerful curse mark on his neck couldn't compare to the mysterious jar Naruto described.
The risk-free way to become stronger was extremely tempting to him.
But the next second, Sasuke Uchiha hesitated again.
If the cursed seal is retained, I can gain another bit of power.
Thinking of this, Sasuke Uchiha clenched his fists and silently looked at Naruto Uzumaki.
Naruto's description of the jar shop sounded tempting, but Sasuke knew that there were no shortcuts to the pursuit of power.
However, Naruto's current performance and the immense power he possesses force Sasuke to reconsider.
Do we really have to completely abandon this curse mark and go to that shop?
Not giving up seems like a viable option.
After thinking for a moment, Sasuke Uchiha said softly, "Can I open the jar without giving up this cursed seal?"
"It's possible, but the improvement of the curse seal won't have much impact on you."
Upon hearing Sasuke Uchiha's words, Naruto Uzumaki quickly said, "I've heard the shopkeeper mention your cursed seal; it's very dangerous."
As he spoke, Naruto quickly told Sasuke all the information he had learned about the cursed seal from Lin Mo.
Sasuke's expression changed drastically upon hearing this: "Even if you die, you can be resurrected from my cursed seal?"
Doesn't this mean that the curse mark on my neck is like an anchor point?
"That should be it."
Naruto scratched his head and said, "Anyway, the shopkeeper told me about this cursed seal. If you want to know more, you can go find the shopkeeper directly."
"After all, the shop owner even knows your curse mark. The shop owner is very mysterious and seems to know everything."
"So I think if you want to become stronger, come with me to the Jar Shop and take a look. I won't lie to you."
"I've also shared this secret with you."
Finally, Naruto Uzumaki muttered something under his breath.
"Um"
Upon hearing Naruto's words, Sasuke Uchiha fell silent for a moment.
Then he nodded gently.
Naruto's display of immense power forced Sasuke to reconsider.
The existence of the jar shop seems to represent a brand new opportunity.
"Oh, right."
Just as Sasuke decided to head to the jar shop with Naruto, Naruto hurriedly said, "Do you have any money? The shopkeeper charges 100,000 taels to open a jar. If you want to open jars and become stronger, you'd better have the money ready."
"I have some at home."
Upon hearing Naruto's words, Sasuke replied without hesitation, "I can go back and get the money first, then wait for me."
"Why don't you come back with me?"
"Then you go get the money first, and we'll meet up in a bit."
Naruto Uzumaki quickly replied, "I still need to go and see Kakashi-sensei."
After all, Kakashi-sensei had arranged for him to meet his teacher.
That teacher, without a doubt, is the big pervert from the comic book.
I need to talk to that lecherous man and ask him to give me half a day off.
Although it's okay if I don't go now, I've already made a promise with Kakashi-sensei.
It's really strange that Kakashi-sensei isn't at the hospital.
Weren't we here to process Sasuke's discharge from the hospital?
"it is good."
As Naruto was thinking this, Sasuke Uchiha heard Naruto's words, nodded, and left.
