Hundred Years of Hokage

Chapter 42 Jiraiya

"Eh heh heh...this posture..."

"Oh ho ho ho... It's so clear..."

"Hehehe...the action can be more intense..."

Behind the rocks beside the hot spring pool, a middle-aged man with long white hair popped up and stared at the girls playing in the pool. The smile on his lips had never been since childhood...

His eyes were shining with holy light.

This is like a man of faith.

In addition, he also has many identities, and each resume is astonishing enough. He is the Toad Sage from Mt. Miaomu and one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha Village.

Of course, what makes men like the most is his authorship.

It's a pity that the ninja drama he worked so hard to write has received little attention. Instead, he wrote some unspeakable short stories in his essays, which are liked by many people.

This person is interesting.

The figure of a blond-haired boy suddenly appeared behind the middle-aged man, and an immature voice came to his ears: "It doesn't feel very good..."

"Well... you are still young and don't know how to appreciate the scenery..."

The middle-aged man said something perfunctory, and turned around to scold the young man who suddenly appeared behind him. When he saw the ninja forehead protector on the young man's head, he frowned: "Huh? A ninja in the village?"

Uzumaki Naruto rubbed his forehead, covered his face with his hands, and muttered: "...Jiraiya...Landful Sage..."

After hearing the names of Jiraiya and "Intimate Paradise" for the first time, the Konoha boy has been full of curiosity about him because the feeling brought by his name is too unique.

Even his brain would involuntarily search for memories about Jiraiya, and the scenes in history flashed by quickly and disappeared quickly.

A man who does not do his job all day long...

The men who trained together throughout the ninja world...

Inadvertently giving him warmth and joy...

Then he left his world cruelly...

It's like a dream that I don't want to give up but dare not recall.

Finally, this journey of memories came to an end. Uzumaki Naruto's brain raised the alarm and re-sealed his memory, leaving only the sad boy crying alone...

"Hey, hey, you are so rude, kid. Who is your mentor? What a lustful sage. I am the Toad sage from Mt. Myouki!"

Standing next to him, Jiraiya was still hopping. He was dissatisfied with the name Naruto called him. He lowered his head angrily, but saw Uzumaki Naruto with tears on his face. He couldn't help but take a half step back: "Hey, hey, kid, I haven’t taught you a lesson yet!”

"Oh, it's none of your business."

Uzumaki Naruto wiped his cheeks, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, raised his fingers, and shouted in a low voice: "Shadow Clone Solution!"

His body instantly turned into a ball of smoke and disappeared!
Jiraiya stood there with a confused look on his face, touching his chin and thinking deeply: "Shadow clone? Judging from his age, that brat should be just a newly graduated genin in the village, right? Has he already mastered the art of shadow clone? "

It's just that there are other things on the scene that are more likely to arouse his curiosity.

After the kid disappeared, Jiraiya shook his head, lay down behind the rock again, and looked at the scenery in the hot spring pool: "Oh, is there a new beautiful girl?"

Uzumaki Naruto's shadow clone disappeared just to report the news...

Sure enough, it didn't take long.

Hatake Kakashi and Uzumaki Naruto appeared behind Jiraiya. Just when Naruto wanted to pull him away, Kakashi stopped him.

The instructing Jonin solemnly held his ninja forehead protector and said cautiously: "Jiraiya-senpai, it must be hard to go out to collect materials for so long. How long will it take for the sequel to "Intimate Violence" to be released... "

"Well, the second book just came out not long ago, right?"

Jiraiya responded, then turned around suddenly and saw Kakashi Hatake with a smile on his face, and then looked at Uzumaki Naruto next to him...

"Hey, Kakashi!"

The middle-aged man couldn't help but waved his hand angrily and said: "It turns out that this kid released his shadow clone to inform you of my whereabouts!"

Hatake Kakashi said seriously: "I'm sorry, Jiraiya-senpai, we have encountered a rather difficult problem now, and we may need your help..." "Only during this period, Yunin Village has the most tourists."

Jiraiya reluctantly glanced at the hot spring pool: "As you can see, I'm very busy right now."

Kakashi Hatake patted his head: "After we talk, seniors should feel that they are very relaxed now..."

a tavern.

Hatake Kakashi briefly mentioned the attack they encountered in the bandit den, and emphasized that after someone used the Heart Turn Technique to control Sasuke, Jiraiya's expression gradually became less leisurely.

When he chose to run away from Konoha, not only because he wanted to find the son of the prophecy, but also because of the endless fighting within Konoha and the many contradictions that were being revealed.

For example, the battle for the position of Hokage...

For example, the battle between Konoha and Uchiha...

If Jiraiya were to face an enemy ninja, no matter who the enemy was, he would not blink an eyebrow and would definitely obey orders.

Faced with the internal struggle in Konoha, Jiraiya didn't want to get involved at all. He refused the position of Hokage because he didn't like arguing with those old people...

Konoha looks prosperous, but is actually a mess.

All this is not something that Jiraiya can solve. Not only may he conflict with his teacher, but he may also be forced to suppress his comrades on the battlefield with his own hands.

Jiraiya chose to believe in the prophesied son mentioned by the great toad sage.

At first, he thought that his disciple Minato Namikaze was the son of prophecy and could change the situation of disputes in the ninja world. The golden flash that dominated the ninja world was indeed his pride.

Later, during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Namikaze Minato sacrificed his life to save Konoha, Jiraiya's hope was completely shattered, and he was even a little disheartened.

During this time, his friend Orochimaru defected.

In the following time, because Sarutobi Hiruzen turned a blind eye to the conflicts between Uchiha, Shimura Danzo and others, he became more and more hesitant in his actions.

Jiraiya was finally completely disappointed with his teacher. He couldn't see any hope in the decaying Konoha Village, so he simply started his journey to find the Son of Prophecy again.

During this time, many things happened in Konoha.

I originally thought that after the demise of the Uchiha clan, the conflicts would gradually disappear. Unexpectedly, the situation worsened, and some people even dared to directly ambush the ninjas in the village.

Jiraiya glanced at Uzumaki Naruto, his eyelids closed slightly, and his voice gradually deepened: "Kakashi, do you want me to escort you back to Konoha?"

"There is no better way!"

Hatake Kakashi raised his head and sighed: "Those people are ninjas who are proficient in assassination and ambush. I am not sure that I can take them back..."

Jiraiya tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said in a deep voice: "The old man hasn't noticed this yet? He should protect you, right?"

"We found Senior Kosuke in the Land of Waves and asked him to bring news to the Third Hokage." Hatake Kakashi shook his head and said solemnly: "However, before we know the outcome, we must prepare for the worst. "

"Tch, I'm really old and my reflexes have become slower..."

Jiraiya cursed his teacher, looked at them and said, "Just in time, I also plan to go back to the village to have a look, so I'll go with you all the way!"

"Then thank you..."

"Wait first..."

Jiraiya waved his hand, looked at Uzumaki Naruto who was writing notes quietly on the side and said: "I want to test this brat first to prevent him from causing trouble in the battle!"

　the second
　　Jiraiya: Test Minato's son...

　　Kakashi: Senior, I advise you to be cautious...

　　Jiraiya: Don't worry, I have a sense of discretion...

　　Kakashi: But I don’t guarantee that Naruto will be measured...

　　Jiraiya: Hehe, it’s just a small test!If this kid is qualified, maybe I can teach him a strong ninjutsu...

　　Kakashi: What ninjutsu?
　　Jiraiya: The ninjutsu left behind by his father, the Rasengan!
　　Kakashi: Hehehehe... I hope you won't leave a shadow...
