"Agh! My leg! It hurts so much!"
"My stomach…!"
"How the hell is this brat so strong…!?"
…
The villagers of Konoha were sprawled out across the ground, groaning in pain.
Even after using all their strength, they couldn't withstand the storm of punches from the golden-haired boy.
Under Naruto's relentless fists, several villagers had been beaten until their faces were swollen like pigs', crying out like children and scrambling on all fours.
Their kids stood nearby, frozen in terror, crying uncontrollably.
"What's wrong?"
Naruto asked with a grin, continuing to throw punches. "Weren't you all going to teach me a lesson? Come on, I'm standing right here."
Although he couldn't defect from the village yet, that didn't mean he had to keep enduring the abuse.
As the situation spiraled out of control, with chaos erupting at the Academy gates, the shinobi parents watching could no longer stay idle.
Nara Shikaku coughed once before flickering in front of Naruto.
"Uzumaki Naruto, that's enough!"
He reached for Naruto's wrist—only to freeze the moment they made contact.
"…What is this strength?"
He couldn't even hold Naruto's wrist. It felt like he was grabbing a boulder—no, a volcano brimming with power, completely untamed.
"Annoying. Get lost."
Naruto frowned and threw a punch straight at Shikaku's face.
Clenching his teeth, Shikaku tightened his grip. He refused to believe that a grown man like himself could be overpowered by a child.
Then he watched, in slow motion, as Naruto's fist crashed into his face.
"Guh!!"
Shikaku gasped in pain, stumbled back, and released Naruto's wrist, covering his face.
The surrounding shinobi parents all froze in disbelief.
Akimichi Chōza blurted out, "Shikaku, what happened? Don't tell me you're sick or something!?"
Grimacing, Shikaku covered his bruised eye and growled, "It's Naruto's strength. It's too strong."
He'd never imagined that a six-year-old could possess such terrifying raw power.
"No way…" Chōza muttered.
Unconvinced, he stepped forward.
Naruto narrowed his eyes and clenched his fist.
BOOM!
With a deep thud, Naruto's punch met Chōza's open palm.
Chōza staggered back two steps, eyes wide with shock.
"What the hell… this strength!"
As a member of the Akimichi Clan, famed for their taijutsu and brute force, Chōza couldn't believe he lost in a raw strength contest to a child.
"Not bad. Again!"
Naruto's eyes gleamed as he punched again.
This time, Chōza channeled chakra into his hand—while Naruto coated his fist in Busōshoku Haki (Armament Haki).
Their clash echoed like a hammer striking an anvil.
Chōza winced and gasped, "That was even stronger than before!"
Naruto's fist felt like a steel spike—unyielding and destructive, nearly breaking through his palm.
After several clashes, Chōza's face paled.
He looked at his hand. It was turning purple.
Naruto prepared to strike again—when suddenly his body stiffened.
His instincts kicked in.
He looked down at his feet.
There, connected to his shadow, was a thin, stretching line of darkness.
Nara Shikaku formed a seal and said calmly, "Naruto, that's enough. Even if the villagers attacked you, this—"
Before he could finish, his face contorted.
He looked down in shock.
Naruto's muscles bulged, and his eyes blazed with fury.
Slowly, step by step, Naruto turned around.
"…You've got to be kidding me," Shikaku muttered.
The boy felt less like a child and more like a raging dinosaur—tearing through his shadow possession with sheer brute force.
The raw strength… it was unreal.
The villagers watching screamed in terror.
"M-monster! The monster's going to kill someone!"
"Hokage-sama, the Nine-Tails is about to go berserk!"
"Run!!!"
Panic rippled through the area. Screams filled the air.
At the academy gates, chaos reigned.
Seeing this, the shinobi parents no longer watched idly. Their expressions turned grim, and they rushed to restrain the golden-haired boy.
Akimichi Chōza pressed down on Naruto's shoulders.
Hyūga Hiashi gripped Naruto's left arm.
Aburame Shibi restrained Naruto's right wrist.
Yamanaka Inoichi stepped in front of him, placing his index finger on Naruto's forehead.
The scene was reminiscent of the Chūnin Exams when jōnin had to restrain Neji—but even more intense.
Inoichi activated his mental probe—and two seconds later, his face paled.
"No chakra manipulation… It's just… pure brute strength…"
He had thought Naruto's power came from some technique or secret jutsu.
But no—it was just raw, terrifying, natural force.
Hyūga Hiashi activated his Byakugan and scanned Naruto's body.
"This… is this really a human body…?"
His voice trembled.
What he saw was a living weapon.
The boy's body brimmed with explosive potential—capable of casually surpassing human limits.
Like a walking Nine-Tailed Fox.
Even Uchiha Shisui and Itachi's eyes sharpened.
"…Takes five jōnin just to restrain him."
"No wonder he ignored Sasuke. I guess… he really just doesn't see him as worth his time."
Sasuke's face darkened hearing that. He clenched his fists.
"…Uzumaki Naruto, huh?"
…
"Are you all done?"
Naruto's voice cut through the tense silence. His icy gaze swept across the jōnin.
"Let. Me. Go."
And then—red chakra began to boil off his body.
Violent. Evil. Dark.
With it came a surge in power.
Hiashi stared at the crimson aura, eyes wide.
"T-That's… Nine-Tails chakra!!"
Everyone froze.
They leapt back at once, faces full of alarm.
No one expected this.
Naruto gritted his teeth and slammed his foot down.
BOOM!
The ground cracked beneath him, leaving a deep footprint.
And with that stomp, Shikaku's shadow possession—snapped like a twig.
