MM Racing Chapter 219 Confession
Chapter 219 Confession
Boruto picked up the soldier's ration pill in his hand, slowly put it into his mouth, and began to chew it carefully. As his teeth pressed gently, the soldier's ration pill slowly dissolved in his mouth, releasing its contained effects.
Sakura, with her eyes closed, continued confidently, "Maybe this soldier pill can not only quickly restore chakra, but also heal external injuries." Her words revealed her extremely high regard for these specially made soldier pills.
Wait...maybe?
When Boruto heard these words from Sakura, he was shocked. It meant that she herself had never tasted the soldier pills she made.
The moment Boruto realized this, it was too late to react. His eyes widened suddenly, and an indescribable taste burst forth in his mouth, quickly filling his entire taste buds. The shock he felt left him unable to adjust for a moment.
Sakura continued, "If Sai were to try my special soldier's rations, it might make his pale complexion healthier."
"As the saying goes, good medicine tastes bitter. Although the taste might be a little strange, considering the benefits after taking it, such a small matter is not a problem at all..."
Boruto's attention was completely absorbed by the strong smell, and he could barely continue listening to Sakura's words. His mind was slightly jolted by the strong smell.
He worried that he might not be able to withstand the shock before the medication took effect.
Sakura noticed the troubled look on Boruto's face and asked, "What's wrong, Boruto?"
By this time, Boruto had gradually recovered from the shock of the strong smell. He forced a smile at Sakura and said softly, "...It's nothing serious, just a little hard to swallow..."
"How could that be?" Sakura seemed a little surprised after hearing Boruto's words: "I put a lot of thought into making it easier to eat."
She was clearly surprised by Boruto's reaction to her soldier pills. She had tried her best to make the pills taste better, but Boruto's reaction showed that her efforts had not achieved the desired effect.
Boruto gave a wry smile. What do you mean "tasting a little bit bad"? It's practically inedible...
Seeing Boruto's expression, Sakura realized he wasn't joking, so she said seriously, "Is it really that bad? Every time I bring Naruto some soldier pills, he finishes them all. If that's the case, then I'll give it a try."
She decided to try it herself to see if it was really that bad, and also to experience the taste of the soldier's rations she made.
He had carefully prepared so many soldier pills for Naruto, but he hadn't tasted them yet. After all, he had specially bought the ingredients from the herbal medicine shop to make them for Naruto, and he was reluctant to eat them himself.
Thinking of this, Sakura reached into the basket again, picked up a soldier's ration pill, and without the slightest hesitation, put it in her mouth. Then she closed her eyes and chewed it carefully.
When the taste of the soldier rations touched Sakura's taste buds, she immediately showed an expression of disbelief. The unbearable bitterness made her jump up and stomp her feet repeatedly, exclaiming, "This is awful!"
Her reaction was even stronger than Boruto's; clearly, the taste of this soldier's ration pill exceeded her expectations.
Although this specially made soldier pill prioritized effectiveness during its production, especially in restoring chakra and healing external injuries, its taste was indeed unbearable, even to the point of making one's scalp tingle.
......
Just as the two were talking, Naruto, who was training, suddenly experienced some bad symptoms. His face turned pale and his body began to sway.
Boruto noticed that Naruto's emotions were fluctuating due to excessive chakra consumption, and this fluctuation seemed to trigger the Nine-Tails' chakra within him.
The surge of Nine-Tails chakra made Naruto's shadow clones even more unstable, and they could no longer suppress the power of the tailed beast within them.
In the blink of an eye, Naruto's shadow clone was enveloped in a tailed beast cloak, and three red chakra tails quickly formed behind him.
As Naruto's shadow clones unleashed their power, a powerful aura spread out from him, forming a huge circular crater that scattered the other shadow clones around him.
Immediately afterwards, the shadow clone lost its mind and began to indiscriminately attack the other clones around it.
Seeing this, Boruto instantly appeared above the Nine-Tails clone, placed his hand on the clone's head, firmly pressed it to the ground, and destroyed it.
Naruto himself also breathed a sigh of relief, feeling exhausted, and collapsed to the ground.
As his mind relaxed, the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique he had cast was dispelled, and the clones disappeared one after another.
Naruto, panting heavily with sweat beading on his forehead and sliding down his cheeks, turned to Boruto and thanked him, "Thank you, Boruto."
However, Naruto was unusually downcast, muttering with a hint of helplessness, "But I'm really embarrassing myself..."
Kakashi arrived at that moment, his gaze sweeping over Naruto and Boruto before he said in a deep voice, "Naruto, you've been training to incorporate wind-style nature transformation into your Rasengan for a whole day now."
"Using about two hundred shadow clones to accelerate cultivation, which translates to approximately 4800 hours of personal cultivation time, isn't that far from enough?"
Naruto looked up at Kakashi and replied, "But this training... chakra control is too difficult. I've already reached the limit of 200 shadow clones. I feel like I'll never be able to complete the training for a new ninjutsu."
Sakura walked slowly to Naruto's side and gently comforted him, "I didn't expect Naruto to get discouraged. This is so unlike you... But I've always believed you would succeed."
During these days, whenever Sakura brought Naruto rations, she witnessed firsthand the hardships Naruto endured during his training and knew the effort he put in and the pressure he faced.
Boruto, however, discovered the crux of the problem. He pointed out that when Naruto focused on the form of the Rasengan, the nature transformation became chaotic and difficult to control.
However, when he tried to focus on nature transformation, he was unable to successfully cast the Rasengan. This contradiction caused Naruto's training to stall, making it difficult for him to achieve a breakthrough.
After hearing Boruto's analysis, Naruto couldn't help but sigh, "After all, I need both of us to be highly focused to barely use the Rasengan. I need a clone to maintain the form change, and at the same time, I have to add a nature change. It's too chaotic."
Naruto realized that controlling both aspects simultaneously required not only extremely high chakra control but also extremely strong mental concentration, which was undoubtedly something he could accomplish.
In response, Boruto offered a suggestion: "Why not try creating an extra clone and infusing the Rasengan with wind-attribute nature transformation, just like how you use clones to maintain the form change when using the Rasengan?"
Upon hearing Boruto's suggestion, Naruto's eyes suddenly lit up. He excitedly clapped his hands and exclaimed, "That's right! If two people can't do it, then let's have three! That way, we can take care of both sides at the same time!"
Without hesitation, Naruto sprang to his feet, formed hand seals, and unleashed the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.
Immediately afterwards, he grouped his clones into three teams, and each team began to condense a Rasengan. Soon, as the Rasengan spun, the surrounding air was cut, producing bursts of sonic booms.
......
Tsunade held a stack of reports in her hands, her expression shifting between anger and uncertainty. These reports contained information about the Akatsuki organization, compiled based on Kakuzu's confession and Itachi Uchiha's intelligence.
Tsunade muttered to herself, her voice filled with disbelief: "I can't believe they're still alive..."
Just then, Jiraiya's voice came from outside the Hokage's room: "Looks like I missed something interesting."
