The genius of Naruto is a bit ordinary.

Xia Li looked at Naruto, who had been surprised since entering this state, and smiled.

To be honest, it would be a lie to say that he was not envious. After all, he had worked so hard for so long to reach this level, but Naruto only reached a reconciliation with the Nine-Tails, and then was able to skip so many processes and reach this level directly.

That's right, in Xia Li's perception, Naruto is so powerful now. Even if we put aside the ninjutsu, Xia Li may not be able to surpass Naruto in terms of physique...

However, it would be inaccurate to rely solely on perception to know how powerful Naruto is now before a specific fight. It can only be truly determined after the fight.

At this time, Naruto also clenched his fists, feeling the explosive power in his body, and was also amazed.

Although Naruto had expected a significant increase in his strength before the reconciliation, he had not expected it to reach such a terrifying level.

If I had this kind of power...

There was determination in Naruto's eyes. He could even break Sasuke's Susanoo now, right?

"Naruto, do you want to try how powerful you are now?" Xia Li suddenly asked at this time.

"Huh? How to try?" Naruto asked.

Then Xia Li just smiled, the meaning was self-evident.

At this moment, Naruto's eyes widened and he suddenly felt unbelievable. What Xia Li meant was... that he should fight with Xia Li to test his strength?

Even though Naruto had felt that this state was so powerful before, his initial thought was actually just to surpass Sasuke. Now it seems that maybe he is more powerful than he thought?

So, am I better than Xia Li now?

Thinking of this, Naruto's pupils contracted, and he suddenly became extremely excited. He smiled and nodded vigorously.

"it is good!"

Xia Li also nodded. Not only Naruto himself, he was actually very curious about Naruto's power, to what extent he had reached, and what his current level of strength was. Xia Li had no reference before, but now that Naruto in the Fairy Fox mode appeared, he had a reference.

"When does it start?" Naruto asked excitedly.

"Let's start somewhere else. Do you want to raze the mountain behind Konoha to the ground?" Xia Li rolled his eyes and looked at the excited Naruto. He also understood why the other party was excited.

But Xia Li couldn't help but laugh. It's not that easy to surpass him.

"Don't resist." Xia Li thought, and finally brought Naruto to the Wet Bone Forest.

If Xia Li's previous words of "don't resist" were just talk, even if the other party resisted he could forcibly take the other party away, but now if Naruto feels his explosive power, he might be able to slightly prevent the other party from being taken away by Flying Thunder God.

However, this was also because Xia Li did not use much chakra. In order to lead someone like Naruto who could burst out such powerful chakra, more chakra was consumed than before.

"Where is this? Is that Slug-sama?" At this moment, Naruto looked around with some confusion, and then after seeing the huge body over there, he couldn't help but react, is this the home of Slug Sage?

Same as Myobokuyama?

Naruto looked around again. The somewhat dark and damp environment made Naruto feel that he liked Myobokuyama a little more.

At this moment, the Slug Immortal also opened his eyes, because it not only felt a familiar breath, but also felt another very powerful breath that was also a bit familiar.

Then, the Slug Sage saw Naruto shining there with golden light.

"Naruto?" At this moment, the Slug Sage couldn't help but make a puzzled sound, a little bit unable to believe his eyes.

"It's me, Lord Slug." Naruto also scratched his head and laughed.

"How long have I slept?" At this moment, the Slug Immortal couldn't help but look at Xia Li beside him and asked.

The Slug Sage had no choice but to do so. After all, he remembered that when he had met Naruto before, he was not that strong. But now...

This aura felt even stronger than Xia Li's, and also surpassed the First Hokage, which made Slug Sage a little confused at this moment.

"Maybe after a day or two." Xia Li said after thinking for a while.

“…………” Suddenly, the Slug Immortal fell silent. It was a little bit unbelievable.

Xia Li also smiled and explained to the still shocked Slug Sage, "Naruto is now the most perfect Jinchūriki. He has reached a reconciliation with the Nine-Tails. Now that Naruto has the Nine-Tails to absorb natural energy, he can also remain in the Sage Mode."

"So that's how it is..." The Slug Immortal nodded, but one could still hear shock in his voice, as if he was digesting this news.

After a long while, the Slug Immortal exclaimed, "So the Nine-Tailed Fox is so powerful?"

Now, Slug Sage feels that his brain is not enough. It is not enough to have Xia Li in this era, and now Naruto has appeared.

Moreover, they both surpassed the first generation of Hokage, who was called the God of Ninja...

What an outrageous era this is!

The Slug Immortal was sighing in his heart.

"The Nine-Tails alone is not that powerful. What is strong is the perfect Jinchūriki." Xia Li answered, and then said, "Of course, among the tailed beasts, the Nine-Tails is indeed the strongest one."

Xia Li thought about the battle record of the Nine-Tailed Fox. It was indeed outrageous that half a Nine-Tailed Fox could fight against so many tailed beasts.

The Slug Sage also nodded. Indeed, when there was only the Nine-Tails before, it was at the mercy of the First Hokage.

"Well, the Nine-Tails is a little unhappy." Naruto scratched his head and interrupted.

"Then ask it if what I said was wrong?" Xia Li said with narrowed eyes.

Suddenly, the Nine-Tailed Fox stopped complaining. In fact, not only Naruto, it was also shocked that Naruto could use such powerful power with the help of its power.

"Could it be that when old man Six Paths created us, it was for us to come into contact with humans and then create the perfect Jinchūriki?" At this time, Nine-Tails couldn't help but think.

Then, the Nine-Tails thought of another problem. If it also had a perfect Jinchūriki at that time, wouldn't it be able to avoid being suppressed by the First Hokage?

The Nine-Tailed Fox felt a little regretful at this time because the First Hokage was no longer around, otherwise it would definitely instigate Naruto to use such power to teach the First Hokage a lesson.

"Xia Li, is there something you want to bring Naruto here for?" At this time, after the Slug Sage understood the reason why Naruto had such a huge change, he also asked Xia Li and Naruto about their purpose.

If Xia Li was alone, then there would be no need to ask whether he came here to practice, but since Xia Li brought Naruto with him, there must be something else going on.

Xia Li also explained his purpose, which was that he wanted to test Naruto's current strength here, and the way to test it was to fight.

After listening to this, Slug Sage was also a little speechless. He looked at Xia Li, then at Naruto, and said, "Do you want to tear this place down?"

"Haha, it's just a test. I won't use all my strength." Xia Li said.

In the end, the Slug Sage agreed. After all, he also wanted to see the current strength of Xia Li and Naruto.

Then, Xia Li and Naruto walked aside and looked at each other. Naruto was extremely excited at this time. He had finally waited for this day. He might have caught up with Xia Li, whom he always felt he would never be able to catch up with.

Naruto was the first one who couldn't help himself and rushed directly towards Xia Li. If it was just a test, it naturally wouldn't be like a real battle. What needed to be tested at the beginning was Naruto's physical strength.

"This speed...is not bad." Xia Li looked at Naruto who was rushing over. Although Naruto's speed was already very fast, and in the eyes of others, it only took Naruto a moment to reach Xia Li's position.

However, in Xia Li's eyes, Naruto's speed was not enough. He was only slightly faster than Xia Li before he mastered the Speed ​​Release, not to mention him now.

After all, speed has always been Xia Li's strong point.

Xia Li looked at Naruto's oncoming fist and without hesitation, he also suddenly punched out, colliding with Naruto's fist.

The next moment, Xia Li's eyes narrowed. Naruto's huge force made him take a few steps back before he could barely stop.

Xia Li was a little surprised at this time. Although he did not use any techniques that could unleash his supernatural powers, he used all the remaining techniques he should have used. With the stimulation of the immortal lightning and his own strength, his power was terrifying enough.

Did he end up being beaten back?

Xia Li smiled. The Fairy Fox Mode was indeed Naruto's strongest state without the power of the Six Paths. It was indeed powerful enough.

However, what Xia Li didn't know was that Naruto actually had a heavy particle mode, but that also belonged to Naruto, no, it was the final trump card of the Nine-Tails. Once used, the Nine-Tails would dissipate in this world.

Therefore, even if this mode exists, it will generally not be used.

Naruto, who had defeated Xia Li, was also a little excited and continued to follow.

At this time, Xia Li no longer hesitated and used his super strength. Before using it, Xia Li was a little worried that Naruto might not be able to withstand his power with full buffs. Now it seems that he still underestimated Naruto's fairy fox mode.

This time, Xia Li had the upper hand in the collision of power between the two, and then, in Naruto's surprised eyes, Xia Li rushed forward.

Naruto did not hesitate and began the offensive and defensive battle with Xia Li using physical techniques.

The Slug Immortal on the side had been watching the fight between the two men and listening to the continuous sound of gas explosions. He couldn't help but be secretly frightened. If it were him facing the fists of these two men, it would definitely not be easy even with such a huge body.

However, the Slug Immortal does not need to take it head-on. At most, he can just disperse and dodge.

At this time, the Slug Sage looked at Xia Li who had the upper hand, and he also realized that in fact, in terms of basic attributes, Naruto had surpassed Xia Li in all attributes except speed.

The reason why Xia Li had the upper hand was simply because Naruto's skills were not as good as Xia Li's. Moreover, Slug Sage had seen so many of Xia Li's super strength skills from Tsunade, so naturally he would not make a mistake.

Victory in battle cannot be achieved by relying solely on attributes, but is also affected by mechanisms. Unless one is extremely strong, the suppression of attributes has reached a point that cannot be compensated by skills.

For example, a small force can move a large object with a small force. But if it is ten thousand or one hundred thousand pounds, can it still be moved with only four ounces of force?

And now, Naruto's attributes do have an advantage, but it has not reached the point of complete suppression, and his skills are completely inferior to Xia Li's, so he is naturally no match for Xia Li.

Therefore, the result of this competition has actually come out, the Slug Immortal thought.

As for ninjutsu? Slug Sage couldn't help but think of Xia Li's non-stop exploding Truth Seeking Orb, and thought, no matter how outrageous Naruto was, he couldn't possibly use a stronger force than that thing, right?

However, if it was just a test and not to kill, Xia Li probably wouldn't use the Explosive Dao Jade.

As expected, the physical battle has ended, and Xia Li still has the absolute advantage in the end.

Naruto was also feeling a little aggrieved at this time. Apart from the two head-on collisions at the beginning, Xia Li had never confronted him head-on. This was still the case even though Xia Li had won the second time.
