Chapter 10: Chapter 10 The Return of the Clone.
Chapter 10.
In the world of Naruto, evening.
In a house near the snack street in Konoha Village, Suzuki was leisurely preparing dinner for himself.
Great joy and great sorrow are bad habits; he did not have such habits and remained calm in the face of many events.
Even with only an hour left until the first clone's return, it was difficult for Suzuki to show any extreme excitement or agitation, at most feeling a little joy.
After three months, he was already well prepared for that moment.
Suzuki carefully washed the vegetables and then added oil to the pan for stir-frying. Soon after, he sat at the dining table, earnestly enjoying the fragrant rice that had already been steamed.
After finishing his meal, he washed the dishes, cleaned the kitchen, and once everything was tidied up, Suzuki slightly squinted as he sensed that there were still ten minutes remaining.
He calmly returned to his bedroom and sat quietly on the bed, waiting.
Three minutes...
One minute...
Ten seconds...
Meanwhile, in the world of pirates, the clone stood alone in an empty desert area.
He held a large bag filled with the meat of sea kings and various unique biological tissues from the pirate world.
There were desert spiders from Alabasta, running ducks, kung fu manatees, and some unique plants.
At the same time, his pockets were filled with some gold, about two kilograms, which he had bought for twenty million Berries at a gold shop in the port.
He was equipped with a finely crafted dagger that cost five million Berries.
The meat was for him to take back and see if it would be useful in the Naruto world.
The various biological tissues from the pirate world were intended for research and experiments, and maybe in the future, he could try to clone them in the Naruto world.
As for the gold, to be honest, the clone did not expect the prices in the pirate world to be so high; his tens of millions of Berries could hardly buy much gold.
In the pirate world, the price of gold was roughly ten thousand Berries per gram, and the price of one kilogram of gold was ten million Berries, similar to the value of yen.
Just like in the original work, where Nami spent a hundred Berries on a newspaper, which is actually around five dollars.
In contrast, the currency unit in the Naruto world uses "ryō," whose value is exactly ten times that of Berries, meaning that ten thousand Berries in the pirate world equals one thousand ryō in the Naruto world.
If this clone could bring back this gold, then Suzuki in the Naruto world would gain an additional two million ryō in wealth.
In fact, with careful thought and calculation, one can understand the interesting aspects of the pirate world and the Naruto world.
For example, Asuma, the son of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, has a bounty of thirty million ryō in the Naruto world; converting that to the pirate world would be three hundred million Berries.
Interestingly, based on Asuma's strength, if he were to really come to the pirate world, he would probably be at the level of three hundred million Berries, or at the admiral level of the navy.
Except for Garp and a few admiral candidates, other elite vice admirals from the navy headquarters or regular vice admirals from the four seas would likely have bounties in the single digits of hundreds of millions if they became pirates.
Those below a hundred million are just small fry, unable to stir up waves in the New World. As for those above a billion, they are basically at the level of emperors and vice emperors.
Considering this, it is actually quite easy to understand the power levels between the pirate world and the Naruto world; the admirals of the navy and the jōnin of Naruto are on the same level.
From the weakest small fry to those who can cause cataclysmic destruction, they are all at the admiral and jōnin level.
Of course, some exceptions apply to certain genin!
The clone had a clear understanding of its own strength; previously, it was a barely graduated genin, but now it had graduated for a year or two.
In the pirate world, if it had become a pirate before, its bounty would have been around five hundred thousand; now, it at least has six hundred thousand!
A one hundred thousand increase in bounty over three months was quite satisfying for the clone.
The training in the pirate world over the past three months, along with consuming various pirate specialties, had even yielded better results than an entire year in the Naruto world.
After this period of training, his body, especially his constitution, seems to be gradually aligning with that of the native residents of the pirate world.
Until now, the strength of his shadow clone has already surpassed that of the main body, Suzuki, in the Naruto world.
Chakra is a combination of body and spirit; as his constitution strengthens, the corresponding amount of chakra will also increase. One day, his chakra will transform into chakra tons!
Soon, in the Naruto world, Suzuki sensed that the connection between him and his shadow clone was becoming increasingly tight.
Until a certain moment, it seemed that there was suddenly no distance between the two worlds,
like looking in a mirror, Suzuki could even see the figure of the shadow clone face to face.
Then, both Suzukis reached out their arms, and at the moment their fingers touched, the mirror shattered, and the shadow clone surged toward him like flowing water.
Some items carried by the shadow clone scattered all over the ground, but Suzuki had no mind to look at these things for now.
He felt the changes within himself and was astonished to find that his chakra had suddenly doubled out of thin air.
His strength, constitution, and various aspects of his body had greatly improved.
Suzuki carefully sensed and experimented a little.
He discovered that his various qualities seemed to be the attributes of the shadow clone and himself stacked together!
In other words, the return of the shadow clone could indeed bring back all the attributes.
"Then, what would happen if I split again?" Suzuki wondered with curiosity.
As before, he extended his arm.
This time, he had a brand new feeling; he could also adjust the strength of the split shadow clone.
After this fusion, although Suzuki's strength increased, the shadow clone correspondingly disappeared.
Suzuki needed to establish a new original blank account, which was the Suzuki that first appeared on the deserted island.
After setting up the new account, Suzuki could allocate some attributes to the shadow clone, which would enhance the shadow clone's strength, but his own strength would weaken.
The shadow clone returns every three months, and each time a new account must be created.
That means Suzuki would increase the power of the original Suzuki at least once every three months.
Coming back to his senses, Suzuki began to calculate again:
There are twelve months in a year, so at least once every three months he would stack the original Suzuki, which means four times a year, eight times in two years, and about forty times in ten years. Choosing to allocate some power would ultimately yield the same result after ten years.
With the original Suzuki's strength just at the level of a Genin, even at forty times, he would only be a Jonin.
Thinking of this, Suzuki realized that this cheat wasn't very powerful; it mainly relied on his and the shadow clone's efforts.
If one day, Suzuki found a way to replicate it, allowing the shadow clone to rise from the Genin level of the original Suzuki to the Hokage level in just three months, then...
In the end, Suzuki chose not to let the shadow clone return to the pirate world in its original form but instead divided half of its strength to ensure the shadow clone's better survival and growth.
After everything was over, while sorting through the items brought back by the shadow clone from the pirate world, Suzuki silently calculated in his heart:
"How to make a Genin grow into a Hokage in three months?"
Tl|N : Guys; some powerstones would be really motivating and as always If you see any mistake 😔, let me know in the comments so I can edit them..
