Chapter 13
Naruto immediately became excited; it was already very kind of Byakuya to tell him how to pass the exam.
He really couldn't trouble Bai Ye with anything else.
"It's a win-win situation, but in the end, you might need to return these ninjutsu!"
Byakuya stared intently into Naruto's eyes.
Bai Ye has a hundred ways to steal the sealed book, a hundred ways.
But the question then became how to return it, and clearly, Naruto is the answer to that question.
Chapter Seventeen: A Great Harvest – The Forbidden Technique Harvester!!
Anyway, Hiruzen Sarutobi was already prepared for Naruto to steal him.
"Okay, no problem, but I'll say I stole it!"
After learning about the upcoming plan, Naruto immediately expressed his loyalty.
Since Bai Ye has helped me so much, I certainly can't let Bai Ye down.
"So when do we start, now?"
Naruto asked excitedly.
Bai Ye shook his head.
"No, today isn't a good day!"
Bai Ye wouldn't be foolish enough to steal at this time.
Naruto arrived at his house and immediately went to steal the sealing technique.
At that time, Hiruzen Sarutobi will definitely start to suspect him.
"You can go back. When Mizuki-sensei looks for you, you can go to the general store near the Hokage Building tonight. I'll be waiting for you there!"
Bai Ye had already thought everything through.
Naruto will be able to do absolutely nothing; he can just lie there and relax.
"Understood, understood!"
The thought of becoming a genin through the upcoming exam made Naruto hum softly.
"Alright, be careful!"
Naruto then left Byakuya's house.
Bai Ye also took the opportunity to sense the situation when he opened the door, and sure enough, there were at least three members of the Dark Guard monitoring the area.
"Nightingale, why did the Hokage suddenly send you to protect Naruto Uzumaki?"
On a building in the distance, one of the ANBU members asked another ANBU member with purple hair.
Previously, the Hokage had always assigned two Anbu members to protect Naruto.
"The Hokage said that Naruto might be making some moves in the near future, and he asked me to come and monitor Naruto with you!"
Nightingale was a close confidante of the Third Hokage.
I know a little about the Hokage's next plans.
"It's completely useless. How could a kid who isn't even a genin possibly escape our pursuit!"
Upon hearing this, another member of the secret service burst out laughing.
They've been monitoring Naruto for years and have never encountered anything unexpected.
"Better safe than sorry!"
Nightingale didn't say much, but kept her eyes fixed on Naruto as he went home.
"It seems Naruto is still holding a grudge about the graduation exam!"
The Hokage's office.
Hiruzen Sarutobi felt very gratified as he watched Naruto go to Byakuya to "learn the Shadow Clone Technique".
At least that's how it appears to him.
"In that case, perhaps I don't need to be so cautious!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the Book of Sealing in his hand.
He was just about to take out a fake Book of Seals and let Naruto steal it.
After all, the true Book of Seals involves far too many ninjutsu.
The next day arrived.
Naruto was originally planning to stay home all day, but Mizuki-sensei actually came to his door.
"Is Bai Ye a prophet? He can even foresee this!"
Naruto was completely shocked, because it was exactly what Byakuya had said.
What happened next was exactly the same as what Bai Ye had told him.
Mizuki actually tricked him into stealing the Book of Seals.
Naruto was completely unaware that their conspiracy had been broadcast live.
Through the crystal ball, Hiruzen Sarutobi saw everything.
"Naruto is still too naive. How could he trust Mizuki!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi now believes that Mizuki is only on the first level.
And I am on the second level!
"Pass the order: withdraw all visible sentries near the Hokage Building and have them replaced by the Anbu!"
To coordinate with Naruto, Hiruzen Sarutobi even removed everyone else and replaced them with ANBU members who were secretly monitoring the situation.
"In that case, the plan should be flawless!"
Naruto, inside the crystal ball, sneaked into the general store.
With a bang, Naruto vanished from the screen.
Hiruzen Sarutobi:???
"What's going on here?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly patted his crystal ball. Had the signal suddenly dropped?
It's a live broadcast, so why can't we see Naruto all of a sudden?
On the other side, near another street of the Hokage Building
"Hmph, the third-generation old man must be completely dumbfounded right now."
Byakuya used an avatar to impersonate Naruto.
The real Naruto was isolated by his own Wood Release technique.
Not even the slightest trace of their presence would be revealed.
Hiruzen Sarutobi thought he was confident he could handle Mizuki, but little did he know, Byakuya was the one who would ultimately prevail.
"Forbidden Technique: Instant Shadow Killing Formation!"
Bai Ye vanished into the shadows, leaving only a faint, indistinct shadow in place.
Of the nearly twenty elite Anbu members in the entire Hokage Building, not a single one noticed Bai Ye.
And so, Bai Ye moved about as if he were in an empty place.
The shadowy figure merely extended to the Book of Seals before vanishing instantly.
"Phew, this Instant Shadow Killing Formation is quite useful!"
Bai Ye exclaimed, "Sometimes he's even comparable to Flying Thor."
After doing everything, I returned to the place where I had first left my shadow.
With his extraordinary comprehension, Bai Ye immediately began to examine the various forbidden techniques on the Book of Sealing.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Techniques? No!"
...
"Can't open it?"
After reading through a dozen or so A-rank ninjutsu, I couldn't access the rest of the content.
The key point is that only the later parts of the Book of Seals can be considered exciting.
The ninjutsu mentioned earlier isn't really considered a forbidden technique; it's more like the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.
Of course, Bai Ye's goals are not limited to this.
"But does the Third Hokage think he can stop me like this?"
Bai Ye maintained a calm expression, remembering that he still possessed the golden attribute of heaven-defying comprehension!
In just a short time, Bai Ye had thoroughly studied the seal behind it.
The seal behind it was opened in no time.
"Four Symbols Seal!"
"Multiply Detonating Tags!"
"Corpse Demon Sealing!"
": Impure World Reincarnation!"
"Eight Gates Formation!"
After acquiring all the forbidden techniques he cared about, Bai Ye didn't forget to find Naruto's long-cherished Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.
"We can't let that brat Naruto suffer too much!"
Although Naruto didn't do anything, it's clear that Byakuya won't treat him unfairly.
Then, Bai Ye gave Naruto several more A-rank ninjutsu.
Regardless of whether Naruto can use it or not, just give it to him.
Anyway, I don't even want those ninjutsu techniques!

In about a minute, Bai Ye had already packed up most of the forbidden techniques that interested him.
Afterwards, Byakuya returned to Naruto's side through the mark left by the Instant Shadow Killing Formation.
Byakuya, who possessed Wood Release, blocked all perception.
Because Wood Release can limit the effects of chakra, as long as Naruto is completely surrounded by Wood Release.
The Third Hokage was unable to use the telescope technique to sense Naruto's chakra.
Then naturally, there would be no way to continue monitoring Naruto.
"The Anbu outside should be looking for Naruto right now, right?"
Byakuya carried Naruto, who was wrapped up in Wood Release techniques, and headed directly to the forest east of Konoha Village.
Here, Bai Ye had already made ample preparations!
"Alright, come out now!"
After Naruto released his Wood Release, he found that Naruto was not moving at all.
"This guy, could he be asleep?!"
Bai Ye was somewhat impressed by Naruto; he was actually able to fall asleep at this hour!
"Fine, since Naruto's already taken the blame, I might as well give him another push!!"
Looking at Naruto sleeping soundly, Byakuya thought to himself that he would help him to the end.
