Chapter 332 Is someone up to something?
"You're back."
Nara Shikaku had become quite accustomed to Naruto's returns; he merely nodded calmly upon seeing him.
"Indeed. It seems some time has passed again. Oh, right, perhaps I can attend Shikamaru's wedding soon."
"Really?"
Nara Shikaku's eyes lit up at the news. This was truly good news.
He had waited many years for this announcement, almost thinking he wouldn't live to see it, yet Naruto's return this time brought such a huge surprise.
"Look at you. How have things been lately?"
Nara Shikaku shook his head: "Not so good."
Hmm!?
Naruto raised an eyebrow, looking at Nara Shikakuin surprise.
It was very rare to hear the words "not so good" from Nara Shikaku.
Given his abilities, it shouldn't be the case.
"What's wrong?"
Naruto sat up straight, gazing at Nara Shikakuseriously.
He knew that for Nara Shikaku to say those three words, "not so good," things must have clearly reached a very serious point.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have heard those words from him.
Nara Shikaku poured Naruto a cup of tea. Steam rose, creating a slight haze.
Through this haze, Nara Shikaku slowly said: "Actually, we should have anticipated this. As time passes and life becomes too comfortable, many people will become idle and look for trouble. That's precisely the situation now."
As Nara Shikaku elaborated, Naruto generally understood what the problem was.
It was a problem every world, every country, would encounter.
Resource allocation and idle people stirring up trouble.
The Ninja World was now facing this situation, and it was quite serious, having been suppressed for a while.
Or rather, they had been waiting for his return.
Those people, feeling satiated and capable, wanted to challenge his authority.
In other words, they wanted to become the masters of this Ninja World country.
Tsk!
How amusing.
He truly didn't understand what these people were thinking. How long had it been, and they had already forgotten the fear of being dominated by him?
How ironic.
Although he felt he would inevitably raise some ungrateful individuals, he still found it unbelievable when it actually happened.
He provided resources, and these people provided labor. Was there anything wrong with that?
Or was it that the resources he provided were indeed a bit too much?
Naruto couldn't help but fall into contemplation.
He hadn't managed things much over the years. Now, upon reflection, he realized these resources were things others didn't have, but he did.
Their effects were indeed very good.
It was precisely because he had grown accustomed to them that he subconsciously overlooked the crucial factors involved.
Fortunately, it's never too late to mend one's ways.
Couldn't he just change things?
Good!
"Is that so?"
Naruto's expression was cold: "Leave it to me. I imagine with your abilities, you've already investigated thoroughly, haven't you?"
"Yes, some family factions are indeed overfed and looking for trouble. They're just waiting for your return to deal with them."
Nara Shikaku silently offered condolences to certain individuals in his heart.
They were truly overfed, constantly thinking of overthrowing Naruto's rule.
Of course, he also clearly understood the intentions of some keyboard warriors.
But from his understanding of Naruto, Naruto very much liked to cut through the mess quickly.
And it was often very effective.
He just didn't know how Naruto would handle this matter.
Nara Shikaku suddenly felt a little anticipation... "An earthquake is coming!"
Within the Hyuga Clan, the slightly aged Hyuga Hiashi stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the scenery outside, and suddenly murmured.
Beside him, Hyuga Neji, who was already the clan head, remained silent.
"Don't mind them."
A hint of mockery appeared on Neji's face.
After a trip to the Dragon Ball World, he finally understood what true power was.
At the same time, he was also very clear about how powerful Naruto was at this moment.
Not to mention Naruto, after his trip to the Dragon Ball World, if Naruto wasn't around, he would be the strongest.
There was no doubt about that.
However, he had always been low-key, quietly serving as the clan head.
Alas, there were always some who felt superior and wanted to cause trouble.
"I'm just curious now how Naruto will deal with these guys."
Hyuga Hiashi seemed unchanged, his hands always tucked into his sleeves, as he smiled faintly.
Hyuga Neji shook his head helplessly at this: "Hanabi, that girl, is truly idle. She threw the clan head position to me and ran off to play. She's so old now and still hasn't found a partner."
"Don't worry about her."
Hyuga Hiashi was very open-minded on this matter, just waving his hand casually: "For me, as long as they are happy, that's enough. There's no need to put so much pressure on them."
Neji: "..."
It seems you didn't say that before.
Back then, Hinata was the one you placed all your hopes on. How is it that what you're saying now is completely different?
Truly...
That evening, they had dinner together.
Naruto looked at the familiar faces present and sighed: "Long time no see, guys."
"You're still so young."
Jiraiya sighed: "We've all grown old."
"You still look the same."
Jiraiya shook his head, a little melancholic.
He could imagine how well Orochimaru and Tsunade were doing with Naruto.
However, someone was needed to maintain order here.
He couldn't help much over there, so he returned early.
Now, it seemed he might have made the wrong choice.
They chatted late into the night.
The next day, Naruto woke up, stretched, and smiled slightly as he looked at the scenery outside the window.
"Today is also a good day."
"First, to business."
"As for the Ginyu Force, Orochimaru and the others should be able to handle them."
Especially Orochimaru, after witnessing the vastness of the world, his talent had been fully unleashed.
Currently, besides Shikamaru, he was performing the best.
A mere Ginyu Force, no big deal.
One must know that this fellow had already transformed himself into a Super Saiyan, and recently he was even contemplating that eternal energy.
If that succeeded, Naruto couldn't even imagine how terrifying he would become.
Super Saiyan plus eternal energy, just thinking about it was exciting.
However, Naruto felt that this wouldn't be so easy.
If it were easy, Dr. Gero wouldn't have been called a genius... "How's the Moon?"
The Moon!
After several years of transformation, the Moon at this moment looked completely different.
"Are you basing it on Earth's proportions?"
"Mm!"
Neji led Naruto across the Moon's surface, smiling as he said: "Our clan has paid little attention to Ninja World matters in recent years, focusing all our energy on this Moon, and we've made significant progress."
"I can see that!"
Naruto nodded, deeply agreeing.
The last time he came, it wasn't this developed, but this time, the Moon had completely changed.
If no one said anything, who would have thought that the Moon from back then was a dead star?
No!
The Moon of the Ninja World was created by someone; it was just a meteorite.
And now?
