Chapter 244 Come out, Dragon!
"Come forth, Shenron!"
As Naruto shouted, the seven dragon balls on the ground began to glow.
Initially, the light was faint, almost imperceptible.
But as time passed, the sky suddenly grew dark.
There were no dark clouds, nothing else to obscure the sky; miraculously, the previously bright, sunny weather instantly became pitch black, so much so that one couldn't see their hand in front of their face.
Only the surrounding lights and the seven dragon balls in front of them flickered with a faint glow.
Hum!
Suddenly,
To everyone's astonished expressions, a golden beam of light shot into the sky, soaring upwards, and soon a Shenron coiled in the air, looking down at its summoner.
Huh?
Shenron was surprised internally.
This group of guys doesn't seem to exist in any time period of this planet.
He is Shenron, powerful in one sense, yet weak in another.
His power lies in his abilities, his weakness in his strength; he cannot have both.
"Summoners, please state your wishes."
A majestic and powerful voice echoed around, visible, perceivable, and audible only to Naruto and his companions.
Naruto looked up, with Hinata excitedly clutching his hand beside him.
She had never witnessed such a spectacle in all her life.
Similarly,
Orochimaru also stared in shock at the Shenron that emerged from the orbs.
What kind of concept was this?
Orochimaru's eyes burned with eagerness; he wanted to study it.
Nine-Tailed and the others looked up in even greater shock, staring blankly at this scene.
Compared to the Shenron before them, their seemingly enormous bodies felt a bit like weaklings.
"Is this Shenron? It looks so strong."
Nine-Tailed lay beside Naruto, his expression solemn.
Naruto glanced at Nine-Tailed, shaking his head; Shenron's power and strength were two different things.
In other words, if it was a god, then it would be a different set of rules it governed.
The gods in this world are very interesting.
The Supreme Kai's strength is also very strong, but compared to the God of Destruction, there is a huge gap.
And the key is that these two divine positions are bound.
If the Supreme Kai dies, the God of Destruction also has to die, so the God of Destruction's psychological trauma must be immense.
"Come, state your wishes."
Shenron's deep, authoritative voice continued.
Naruto looked up, pondered for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face: "Shenron, I want eternal life."
Shenron: '...'
"I cannot do that; my abilities are limited."
As expected, it couldn't be done.
Naruto raised an eyebrow, feeling no regret, he just wanted to test it, what if it succeeded?
"Then, I want immense power, preferably surpassing the God of Destruction."
Shenron: "..."
He wanted to curse.
What kind of concept is a God of Destruction? Is it something a Shenron from this small planet could even attempt to compare with?
"I cannot do that."
"You… this…"
Hinata and the others exchanged glances, feeling like this Shenron was a bit unreliable.
"However, if you want strength, you can sacrifice your lifespan to temporarily become a little stronger."
"How strong?"
"Hmm, I don't know."
A cold sweat appeared on Shenron's face.
Naruto was speechless; this Shenron was useless. Forget it, he'd better ask for a simpler wish.
After a moment of thought, Naruto's eyes lit up: 'I've got it!'
"Then, Shenron, give me a large jar of Senzu Bean seeds."
"As you wish."
Shenron's eyes lit up, and the next moment, a large jar of Senzu Bean seeds appeared before Naruto.
Hinata was puzzled, and Nine-Tailed was also very puzzled.
Beans?
What use were these things?
Orochimaru, however, seemed to be deep in thought.
He knew Naruto wouldn't act recklessly, and it was clear these things had their own purpose.
Kami: "..."
"How does he know everything?"
Senzu Beans are actually very difficult to grow; after all these years, there aren't many of them.
Seeds, then, are even more precious.
"Popo doesn't know either."
Popo, standing nearby, scratched his head, also looking perplexed.
No one knew about Senzu Beans at this time, and their effects were incredibly potent. Korin had never brought them out.
Because once these people below found out, Korin Tower would never have peace.
Don't doubt human greed.
Kami never believed humans could change their bad habits; mortals could only be guided.
Undeniably, there would be some good people among the crowd, but that was only a fraction.
"Kami, what should we do?"
"Nothing."
Kami leaned on his staff, shaking his head: "He obtained the Senzu Bean seeds legally; there's no need for us to interfere."
In other words, what if he had Senzu Bean seeds?
Could he even plant them?
Don't dream.
If Senzu Beans were that easy to grow, they wouldn't be called Senzu Beans; they'd be called edamame.
Or soybeans, for that matter... "Well then, goodbye!"
Seeing the task completed, Shenron directly transformed into seven beams of light and flew in all directions.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Naruto's eyelids twitched, and seven Narutos soared into the air, instantly grabbing the seven dragon balls, which had turned into stones, just as they were about to fly away.
Kami: "..."
Popo: '...'
Korin: "..."
Nine-Tailed stared at Naruto blankly: "Good heavens, you're going to make these a family heirloom, aren't you?"
"Of course."
Naruto smiled, carefully collecting the seven stone orbs, and said with a laugh: "I'm very selfish. Since these things are so useful, they naturally belong to me."
As for whether the original plot could still unfold? What did that have to do with him?
"It's daylight again. What's the principle behind this?"
Orochimaru's gaze fell on the sky, his heart filled with questions; he really wanted to study this phenomenon.
It was too miraculous.
"It's probably the authority of a god."
Naruto stroked his chin, casually replying: 'Although Shenron is weak, it still has a position, and the rules of the universe will create some special effects for its appearance.'
"Is that so, a god?"
Orochimaru's ambition was rekindled.
Immortality does not equate to godhood.
But a god can certainly live for a very long time.
"This world is becoming more and more interesting." Orochimaru's eyes sparkled: "I must study it thoroughly and seek the truth."
"So, Naruto, you wanted Senzu Beans to plant them?"
Hinata picked up a Senzu Bean, her pretty brows slightly furrowed: 'What's the use of this Senzu Bean?'
"No matter how serious the injury, eating one will restore all vitality and wounds."
"What?!"
The few who had been completely indifferent all looked at Naruto in shock.
Naruto nodded solemnly: "You heard right, it's that amazing."
Hiss!
A collective gasp of cold air filled the air.
How could this world be so bizarre, that such a thing could exist?
It must be food eaten by gods, right?
For a moment, the few people present looked at Naruto with strange expressions.
So, how do you know so many secrets?
They were very curious.
How was it that Naruto seemed to have a cheat code wherever he went, knowing everything?
"Come on, let's go plant them. I'm very curious if Senzu Beans can grow in my space."
"They definitely can!"
Nine-Tailed had the most to say on this matter...
