Naruto: I, Naruto, Start With The Full-Level Shining Fruit

"Are you lost?"

Naruto's face was filled with confusion as he looked at Jiraiya, who had suddenly reappeared after disappearing for two months.

"Ahahaha, the girls in the Land of Snow are too enthusiastic, I accidentally stayed a few extra days!" Jiraiya scratched his head and laughed.

Naruto rolled his eyes. He didn't believe that any girl would be enthusiastic about Jiraiya for two months!

Even if Jiraiya launched a money offensive, it would be difficult for the girls to accept the fact that he was a perverted old rogue!

"I'll have someone arrange accommodation for you..."

Naruto was about to call someone to take Jiraiya away, but Jiraiya waved his hand and refused.

"No need to trouble yourself, I'm leaving the Land of Snow tomorrow!"

Jiraiya suddenly sat on the ground, crossed his legs, took out a wine pot, and took a sip. "I've been watching your actions during this time. I don't know what your plans are, but in any case, I don't want you to defect from Konoha!"

Naruto looked at Jiraiya expressionlessly, without answering.

Jiraiya continued, "The Land of Snow is well-organized and developing rapidly under your rule. It can be seen that you have the potential to become Hokage, but as your teacher, I must advise you, you are still young and shouldn't be so anxious for power!"

"I'm not interested in becoming Hokage," Naruto retorted indifferently.

"You don't want to be Hokage, then what are you doing in the Land of Snow? Killing the servant can be said to be for completing the mission, and killing the noble families can be said to be to eliminate future troubles, but you helped the Land of Snow establish a ninja school, improve its armed forces, send people to build roads, and develop the economy... You really don't want to be Hokage, you want to be Snow Shadow!"

"......"

Although Naruto didn't reveal these things openly, and didn't even tell Sakura and Sasuke!

But he also knew that these things couldn't be hidden from Jiraiya!

This old codger must have been gathering information in the Land of Snow for the two months he disappeared. He might have even sneaked into that Snow Hidden Village several times.

"Okay, let's stop talking about this! Although I am your teacher, I can't force you to do things you don't like! After all, I didn't stay in Konoha either..."

Jiraiya stood up, his body swaying slightly, "Oh right, you need to be careful of the Akatsuki organization. If you stay in the Land of Snow for too long, they might come looking for you!"

"Originally, I planned to take you on a trip, so that you could avoid the Akatsuki's pursuit and protect your safety, but with your current strength, even without me by your side, you can protect yourself, right? Haha!"

"Speaking of which, you are the most worry-free of my disciples. Even the Fourth Hokage's talent is far inferior to yours!"

"But come to think of it, I have a good eye for picking disciples, hahaha!"

Rinnegan Nagato, Yellow Flash Minato Namikaze, Golden Flash Naruto Uzumaki... Isn't this eye amazing?

Naruto looked at the smug Jiraiya and said helplessly, "Where are you planning to go next?"

"Where can I go? I'm a wanderer, continuing to gather material for my new book!" Jiraiya grinned.

"Besides that, you're also planning to gather information about the Akatsuki, right?" Naruto exposed Jiraiya's thoughts.

The reason why the original Jiraiya only taught Naruto for three years was not because Naruto had learned all his skills in three years,

But because Naruto at that time already had a certain ability to protect himself!

In addition, Konoha at that time had recovered, and Tsunade's strength had also increased, so Jiraiya was relieved to leave Naruto in Konoha!

Now Naruto has the power to protect himself early on, and even without Konoha's protection, he is enough to fight against the Akatsuki!

It was also for this reason that Jiraiya had the idea of ​​inquiring about Akatsuki's information in advance.

Jiraiya glanced at Naruto in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be able to guess this, you're quite amazing! But don't worry, I'm a professional at gathering information! This kind of thing is too easy for me!"

"I'm very relieved!"

Naruto's eyes were firm, but his tone changed, "If I'm relieved to let you go, it won't be long before I receive news of your death!"

Jiraiya: "......"

"I know more about Akatsuki's information than you, and I will definitely find out more than you. If you want to know about Akatsuki's information, you can spend money to buy it from me!" Naruto added.

For the sake of Jiraiya caring about him, Naruto didn't want Jiraiya to die in vain.

Anyway, as long as he doesn't have the idea of ​​destroying Konoha, Jiraiya won't be on his opposite side, and even if he lets him live, there won't be any conflict of interest!

"You know Akatsuki's information?" Jiraiya was even more surprised. "Haven't you been in Konoha all the time? How would you know Akatsuki's information?"

"It was Itachi Uchiha who told me," Naruto said without changing his expression.

In the current situation, only Itachi Uchiha can help him make up this lie.

"Itachi Uchiha? Why?" Jiraiya asked suspiciously, "Why would he tell you this?"

"Because Itachi Uchiha has always been on Konoha's side. He is Konoha's S-class missing-nin on the surface, but in reality, he is Konoha's spy infiltrated into Akatsuki!" Naruto explained.

"A spy infiltrated into Akatsuki? How is that possible... To infiltrate Akatsuki, Itachi Uchiha wiped out the Uchiha clan?" Jiraiya asked puzzled.

"It's a deal."

Naruto said lightly, "A morally depraved, dark and despicable deal between Konoha's higher-ups and Itachi Uchiha!"

Jiraiya had already left Konoha when the Uchiha clan was destroyed.

So he knew nothing about the deal between Konoha's higher-ups and Itachi Uchiha.

But when he heard Naruto evaluate this matter like this, his heart was a little complicated.

"What exactly happened?" Jiraiya frowned.

"You probably know something about the conflict between the Uchiha clan and Konoha's higher-ups, right?" Naruto asked back.

Jiraiya nodded. "I roughly understand, but the Third Hokage has been working hard to resolve these conflicts. Did he fail?"

"The Third Hokage?"

Naruto hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say anything bad about the Third Hokage in front of Jiraiya, "I guess he failed. In short, the Uchiha clan and Konoha's higher-ups were like fire and water, so they prepared to rebel!"

"Itachi Uchiha couldn't stop the Uchiha clan, so he made a deal with Konoha's higher-ups. He wiped out the Uchiha clan alone, defected from the village to complete Konoha's secret mission, and infiltrated Akatsuki. The condition was that Konoha's higher-ups couldn't touch Sasuke Uchiha!"

"How could such a thing happen?!"

Jiraiya opened his mouth wide, his face full of disbelief.

He never thought that such a thing would happen in Konoha while he was away!

In order to prevent a rebellion from happening, Itachi Uchiha single-handedly slaughtered his own clan?

He didn't know whether to sympathize with Itachi Uchiha's determination and pain, praise him for his contribution to Konoha, or scold him for his stupidity and 'filial piety'!

This is simply outrageous!
