Konohamaru's eyes widened, shining with intense admiration and longing.
"Boss Naruto, this is too cool! When will I ever be as amazing as you?"
Konohamaru's voice trembled with excitement.
Naruto smiled, patted Konohamaru on the shoulder, and said:
"Don't rush. As long as you practice hard and train diligently, you'll definitely be able to do it sooner or later."
Ebisu-sensei sneered from the side and said:
"This is just the basic Transformation Technique that everyone knows. Young Master Konohamaru, don't let him mislead you."
Konohamaru rolled his eyes at Ebisu-sensei and said:
"Ebisu-sensei, all you know how to do is make sarcastic remarks. I believe in Boss Naruto."
Ebisu-sensei pushed up his sunglasses with a small hand, chuckled, and said:
"Mere hundreds of clones, nothing worth mentioning."
Ebisu-sensei's tone was full of disdain.
Naruto glared at Ebisu and said:
"If you've got the guts, try it yourself!"
Ebisu-sensei crossed his arms over his chest and said:
"To deal with you, I wouldn't deign to use that level of Ninjutsu."
Konohamaru couldn't help saying to Ebisu-sensei:
"Ebisu-sensei, you're just jealous of Boss Naruto."
Ebisu-sensei's face darkened, and he said:
"Young Master Konohamaru, don't talk nonsense."
Naruto looked at Ebisu-sensei defiantly and said:
"If you don't dare, just say so instead of making excuses."
Then Ebisu-sensei raised both hands, took a fighting stance, and smiled slightly at Naruto's hundreds of shadow clones.
"Hmph, Naruto, let me teach you a lesson and show you what real strength is."
Ebisu-sensei said with absolute confidence.
Naruto wasn't about to be outdone, and said:
"Come on then, let's see who's stronger!"
Just as the tension between the two sides reached its peak, Konohamaru cheered from the sidelines:
"Fight, fight! Boss Naruto, show me what you can do!"
However, at this moment, Naruto and Ebisu-sensei were staring intently at each other and couldn't hear a word. Their pressure grew heavier by the second, and a battle seemed ready to erupt at any moment.
Hundreds of Naruto's shadow clones shouted together at Ebisu-sensei:
"Let's get him together!"
The sound was deafening and full of fierce momentum.
Ebisu-sensei's expression changed slightly, but he forced himself to stay calm and said:
"Bring it on! Who's afraid of you!"
The moment his voice fell, the shadow clones swarmed forward, and Ebisu hurriedly employed Taijutsu to cope with them.
In an instant, dust filled the air as the flashes of Taijutsu crossed and flickered.
Konohamaru stamped his feet with joy on the sidelines and shouted:
"Wow, amazing! So amazing!"
Yet the fierce battle rendered Konohamaru's shouts useless, as Naruto's shadow clones and Ebisu-sensei fought to a standstill.
Then Naruto formed hand seals once more, summoning another hundred shadow clones.
After shouting "Let's get him together!" once again, Naruto's hundreds of shadow clones leaped forward immediately and attacked Ebisu-sensei anew.
Ebisu-sensei was instantly surrounded by the attacks of these shadow clones. He dodged left and right, executing various defensive Taijutsu techniques in an attempt to fend off the tidal wave of assaults.
"Hmph, Naruto, do you think you can beat me with just this?"
Ebisu-sensei shouted loudly, though beads of sweat had already broken out on his forehead.
The shadow clones showed no mercy, raining down punches and kicks. Ebisu-sensei gradually found himself unable to keep up, taking quite a few blows to his body.
Konohamaru watched from the side with radiant joy and shouted:
"Keep it up, Boss Naruto! Go, Boss Naruto!"
After a moment, Ebisu-sensei remained unfazed, quickly unleashing another set of Taijutsu maneuvers to deal with the shadow clones Naruto had summoned.
Ebisu-sensei's movements were agile and his posture athletic, every single strike carrying a fierce momentum. Ebisu-sensei side-stepped to dodge an attack from one shadow clone while kicking another away with a raised leg.
"Naruto, this little trick of yours isn't enough!"
Ebisu-sensei shouted loudly, a hint of smugness appearing on his face.
However, with such a vast number of shadow clones coming wave after wave, Ebisu-sensei—though temporarily able to manage—was burning through his stamina rapidly.
Konohamaru cheered loudly from the sidelines once more:
"Go for it, Boss Naruto! You've got to win, Boss Naruto!"
Ebisu-sensei truly lived up to his reputation as an elite instructor; facing Naruto's hundreds of shadow clones, he did not fall behind at all.
Ebisu-sensei's techniques flowed like moving water and drifting clouds, handling each situation with ease as he beat back the rushing shadow clones one by one. Although sweat dripped from Ebisu-sensei's forehead, his gaze remained steadfast.
Seeing this, Naruto couldn't help feeling a secret surge of admiration, and thought:
"This guy really knows what he's doing."
The attacks of the shadow clones grew increasingly fierce. Ebisu-sensei clenched his teeth and resisted with all his might.
Konohamaru spun around in circles with delight on the sidelines.
Seeing that his hundreds of shadow clones still couldn't take Ebisu-sensei down, Naruto formed hand seals and said:
"We're not done yet."
As Naruto's voice faded, a fresh batch of shadow clones appeared and joined the fray.
Ebisu-sensei's expression finally flickered; he hadn't expected Naruto to possess such an immense amount of chakra.
"Naruto, you jerk!"
Ebisu-sensei shouted between heavy pants.
Naruto smiled smugly and said:
"How's that, Ebisu-sensei? Keep taking my moves!"
The battle grew even more intense now, the surrounding trees shaking violently from the shockwaves of the Ninjutsu as leaves fluttered down like rain.
Konohamaru watched with his jaw dropping in shock, crying out in renewed amazement:
"This is way too crazy, Boss Naruto!"
Naruto released the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique once again, this time performing dozens of consecutive Multi Shadow Clone summons. In an instant, thousands of Naruto shadow clones flooded the training ground.
The densely packed shadow clones surrounded Ebisu-sensei so tightly that not even a sliver of space remained.
Ebisu-sensei's expression turned grave as beads of sweat rolled endlessly down his forehead.
"Naruto, are you trying to kill us both?!"
Ebisu-sensei shouted loudly, a trace of tension leaking into his voice.
Naruto let out a hearty laugh and said:
"Ebisu-sensei, let's see you get out of this one!"
Konohamaru was rendered utterly speechless by the scene before him, standing frozen in place.
Thousands of shadow clones shouted in unison and launched their attacks simultaneously. Ebisu-sensei was plunged into an instant crisis, forced to fight desperately for his life.
Ebisu-sensei cried out in shock:
"Is this endless?!"
Ebisu-sensei's voice was filled with disbelief and terror.
Faced with this overwhelming, all-encompassing sea of shadow clones, Ebisu felt a pressure unlike anything he had ever known. His eyes began to panic, and his movements lost their previous composure.
"Naruto, you brat, you actually..."
Before Ebisu-sensei could finish his sentence, his words were cut short by the barrage of attacks from the shadow clones.
