Konoha's task master

Jiraiya led Yakumo as soon as he walked out of the Hokage Building and skillfully entered an alley. The surrounding area was full of baths of various sizes, and white steam gushes out along the gaps in the windows...

Could it be that... the first step in Jiraiya's teaching is to lead him to spy on girls taking a shower and establish a fighting friendship?

This is too much...

Why are you still looking forward to...?

You won't be affected by Jiraiya, right?

Yakumo complained secretly in his heart.

Whoa, I saw Jiraiya climbing over the wall skillfully, and Yakumo hurriedly followed... At this time, he lost track... and his thigh flew away.

What came into view was not the scenes he was expecting, but an extremely ordinary training ground, only much larger than the one in Yakumo's yard.

There are many vibrant trees around the training ground, and the equipment is very comprehensive. There are round targets for connecting kunai and shuriken, wooden stakes and sandbags for practicing physical skills, and horizontal bars for connecting balance ability. In the distance is the ancient

The tall buildings are covered with the emblems of the Thousand Hands clan.

"This is the training ground behind Senju's old house. From now on, you can follow the same route here and wait for me every morning..." Jiraiya said.

"Okay, Master Jiraiya..."

Yakumo cautiously raised his head and looked at Jiraiya's face. For some reason, Jiraiya's posture was completely different from that in the original work.

Those faces are not handsome, but they give people an extremely solid feeling. The tall figure is half hidden in the shadow of the trees, and his eyes are full of loneliness...

He now looks like an ordinary person who has lost his loved one, and is no longer the legendary Sannin who bears so much glory.

To him, Tsunade was not only a close friend, but also a true love... It must have been hard to be unable to stop Tsunade from leaving him... It was a pity that Tsunade also had reasons to leave.

"If...Jiraiya-sama is reluctant to let go of Master Tsunade, why don't you travel with him to the ninja world?" Yakumo consoled him very thoughtfully.

"Ha... you brat actually started to comfort me... Since I promised Tsunade to take care of you, let's start practicing as soon as possible!" Jiraiya smiled heartily, sweeping away the decadence on his face.

As Konoha's top combat power, Jiraiya seems to have an incomparable style, but the real situation is that there is no freedom at all. After all, the fall of the top combat power... may very well become an opportunity for a war in the ninja world.

"Then I wonder what Master Jiraiya plans to teach me...?" Yakumo quickly agreed with a smile.

"The information shows that you have chakra with two attributes: earth and water, and the only techniques I am good at that you can practice are earth escape and self-created ninjutsu." Jiraiya explained, considering Yakumo's chakra

Quantity, necromancy and magic are obviously not suitable.

Seeing Yakumo in front of him, he could not help but think of the three disciples he had accepted in the Land of Rain. They met at the same age, but unfortunately they died in the war.

"Then Jiraiya-sama, can you demonstrate your homemade ninjutsu for me?" Yakumo asked with a hint of anticipation.

"Okay, then you take a good look." Jiraiya calmed down and regained his spirits. He wanted to protect...Konoha!

"Ninjutsu, Jizo Needle!"

Jiraiya quickly completed the seal, and the white hair on his head stretched and deformed like rows of needles to wrap around his body, as if there were no gaps, and each hair stood up like steel needles. If this was kicked up, he would definitely end.

miserable.

"This move can effectively defend against other people's attacks. It is not limited to physical techniques or various weapons. With my level of practice, it can even defend against ninjutsu attacks." Jiraiya said with some pride.

"Of course it's more than that."

"Ninja Technique: Needle Hell!"

The hair that wrapped around Jiraiya's body quickly opened and continued to grow. Finally, it condensed into a white electric drill, which easily broke the trees on the edge of the training ground.

"How is it...do you want to learn?" Jiraiya's hair returned to its original shape and he asked Yakumo very proudly.

"Of course! Jiraiya-sama, please teach me."

Yakumo quickly responded, saying that he had the Four Stars and the Hatake Secret Code to attack him, but his defensive methods were slightly insufficient.

The Ninja Technique and Jizo Needle can just make up for it.

"Do you really want to learn?" Jiraiya said in surprise. When Minato Namikaze first became a disciple, he wanted to pass on this self-created ninjutsu and let it flourish.

But Minato Namikaze refused to learn anything... After long and fruitless persuasion, he had no choice but to give up the idea.

"Of course... this ninja technique is unexpected, both offensive and defensive, it is perfect!" Yakumo admired from the bottom of his heart.

This ninja technique involves changing the properties of Yang-type chakra, and Yakumo has no reason to refuse based on this alone.

As we all know: Water + Earth + Yang = Wood Release!

Susanota Buddha and two people destroyed the five kingdoms.

If Yakumo fails to cast Susan, he will basically be out of luck, but Mu Dun can make plans. After all... in life, you should have a dream... what if, if you work hard, it will come true!

"Do you really think so? You want to learn this ninjutsu?"

Jiraiya knelt down and looked into Yakumo's eyes, confirming again.

"Of course it has offense and defense, and you can move forward and retreat freely... It's a perfect ninjutsu. Is there any reason to refuse?"

After Jiraiya heard this, he looked at Yakumo with a look that made him regret meeting him too late, and finally patted Yakumo on the shoulder and said.

"you know me!"

Jiraiya stood up and looked into the distance.

"This method is both offensive and defensive, allowing you to advance and retreat freely."

"Who dares to say it is garbage!!"

At this moment, Jiraiya seemed extremely happy, and even the sadness of Tsunade's departure had dissipated a lot.

"I'll teach you how to form seals first."

"good!"

Jiraiya was very slow to demonstrate, and Yakumo was slow to record and learn. In this way, Yakumo had mastered the trick in the morning, but in order to continue to maintain the personality of a person with relatively poor ninjutsu talent, he had to continue to act stupid.

Until noon, the temperature rose rapidly, and the two of them were sweating profusely.

"That's it for today. I'll take you to dinner first."

Jiraiya took out a scroll from his storage scroll and handed it to Yakumo and said.

"There are several very practical techniques here. You can try to practice them when you are free. I will wait for you at the training ground at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. You don't have to go to the ninja school anymore. I will go and ask for leave for you in the afternoon."

"Okay...Thank you, Jiraiya-sama."

Jiraiya may be careless and even a little lecherous at times, but he is very sincere towards people and does not show any impatience because of Yakumo's poor talent. Instead, he takes care of Yakumo as much as possible.

This kind of sincere care made Yakumo very helpful and moved. Perhaps this is Jiraiya's personality charm.

"But...Jiraiya-sama, what if...I fail the final exam of the ninja school?" Yakumo asked nervously.

"...Yakumo, you have to have some confidence in me and you. I will teach you personally, and you still need to worry about...failing the final exam...? Am I not better than those teachers?" Jiraiya snorted with some dissatisfaction.

"Yes, yes...Jiraiya-sama is the strongest."

"I like to hear this...say it several times."

"..."
