In Naruto: Reborn with a Chat Group-Chapter 98 - : Master-Level Sage Arts! Reaching the Kage level!

Makoto waved his hand dismissively and said, "Uncle, don't stress over the little things! I want the super deluxe ramen! Oh, and pack a few extra portions too."

Ichiraku gave him a puzzled look. "Can you really eat that much?"

Makoto shook his head. "Of course not. How could I finish it all by myself? I'm bringing it for two idiots!"

The "two idiots" he was talking about were obviously Sasuke and Naruto.

Kakashi had tricked them, making them skip breakfast, and they had spent the whole morning starving.

By now, they were probably beyond hungry.

Makoto didn't realize it, but he had also unknowingly developed the Sakura Filter.

Makoto never had the habit of saying thanks before eating. As soon as the food was in front of him, he dug in without hesitation.

"Uncle, your cooking just keeps getting better!"

Ichiraku sighed. "Makoto, how many times do I have to tell you? Stop calling me uncle. By the way, I heard Lord Third has taken you in as his student?"

Makoto nodded as he swallowed a mouthful of noodles. "That's right! I just got back from training at the Hokage's office."

Ichiraku's smile widened. "In that case, let me treat you today to celebrate! You don't have to pay."

The moment Makoto heard that, he didn't hesitate. "Thanks, Uncle!"

"Damn it, I'm not your uncle!"

But Makoto had already grabbed the packed ramen and was heading out the door.

Ichiraku watched him go, shaking his head with a small smile. "This little brat..."

As he turned back to his work, his daughter, who had been watching, spoke up. "Dad, why does he keep calling you uncle?"

Ichiraku let out a helpless sigh. "How should I know? Anyway, keep an eye on the shop. I need to deliver an order."

Now, Makoto was on his way to the training ground, carrying the packed ramen.

He glanced at his screen and saw a new message from Madara.

[Uchiha Madara: Hey, kid, can you explain what you meant earlier when you said I was deceived?]

Makoto grinned after seeing the message as he had only explained half of the situation before.

[Ito Makoto: It means exactly what it sounds like. Don't you understand simple words? You got tricked!]

[Uchiha Madara: .....Fine, then tell me, who deceived me? And why?]

[Ito Makoto: As you can see, I'm too busy to answer all your questions right now.]

[Uchiha Madara: You brat!]

Just then, a notification popped up.

[Group Moderator Senju Hashirama has gifted the group leader Makoto Ito a Master-level Sage Arts technique!]

[Senju Hashirama: Makoto, can you explain now?]

[Uchiha Izuna: Why is Hashirama more anxious than my brother, who's the actual victim here?]

[Senju Tobirama: Wouldn't you be anxious if your man got deceived?]

[Uchiha Izuna: ....]

Izuna was about to laugh at Tobirama's message until he noticed his own nickname.

[Tobirama's Little Wife]

"Fuck!"

[Ito Makoto: Lord First, thanks for the superchat! Everyone, make sure to thank him!]

[Senju Hashirama: What does he mean by that?]

[Senju Tobirama: Who knows? He always says things we don't understand.]

Without wasting another second, Makoto received the master level sage arts. The moment he accepted the gift, he felt an immediate shift in his body. His Chakra surged, his senses sharpened, and even his physique seemed to grow slightly stronger.

But the most crucial change was that Makoto had finally reached Kage-level strength.

The proof came when the chains binding his Revive button shattered into pieces!

Before this, even though he got many good things from the group members, he was still a little behind from truly reaching Kage-level. At best, he could momentarily surpass that level in short bursts.

But now, with the Master-level Sage Arts in his arsenal, he had officially stepped into the ranks of true Kage-level power.

[Ito Makoto: Ahem..... it's a long story to explain, so I'll just take my time and tell you all about it!]

[Several decades ago, during the Warring States Period, two great ninjas emerged. Their names were Hashirama and Madara.]

[As children, they formed a deep friendship, so deep that they even considered each other soulmates. However, their families did not approve of their relationship......]

Sparky's Note: I know today's Chapters were on the shorter side, but I'm sure some of you have already guessed why.

In most Chinese fanfics, the quality tends to dip around the 100-Chapter mark, and this one is no different.

At this point, it feels like the author just started writing whatever popped into their head, stuffing the story with an overload of gay jokes and long-winded Chinese references just to pad the word count.

Anyway, enough about that.

You guys managed to claim all seven bonus Chapters this week. The last few days have been wild with all those powerstones pouring in.

As much as I'd love to drop even more bonus Chapters, it's a bit tricky since I've started translating a new fanfic. That should be dropping soon.

On that note, we're about to hit 100 Chapters in this one, how about leaving me a review?
