Konoha: Start with a bowl of noodles!Ninjutsu is all about stealing

Jiraiya came to the cave where Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato lived. Looking at the broken pots in the cave and the thatch on the ground, he asked in surprise: "You...you live in a place like this?"

Yahiko said: "This kind of place is already very good."

"But...but the wind and rain can come in here, and there may be poisonous insects crawling in."

Xiao Nan said helplessly: "When the wind comes, we hide in the cave. When the rain comes, we use cans to catch them. If poisonous insects crawl in, the three of us will pick them out with sticks."

Jiraiya felt very uncomfortable when he heard this, and asked: "Then what do you usually eat?"

Nagato replied: "Yahiko, Konan and I are all children. We have no jobs and no money, so we have to steal food."

"Sometimes if you steal more, you will put it in a jar; sometimes if you steal less, you will have to eat less. If you don't steal anything, you will be hungry."

Yahiko added: "There are four towns around here. Over the past few years, we have robbed every store. The store owners saw us like rats, so we were often beaten."

After Yahiko said these words, he suddenly laughed cheerfully: "Hey, it's okay for a man to be beaten. Beating can strengthen his physique. As long as they don't beat Konan."

Jiraiya couldn't help but think: What a nice young man.Life is so embarrassing, but he still knows how to protect girls.But...but the children of Konoha are so happy compared to them.

Sure enough, the pain of a small country cannot be felt by the citizens of a big country.

Jiraiya noticed that Yahiko, Nagato and Konan's clothes had many holes and patches, and couldn't help but asked: "Yahiko, Nagato, Konan, do you have any other clothes?"

"No more, this is the only one."

"What if the clothes are dirty?"

Yahiko smiled and said, "Then stand in the rain and let the rain wash our clothes. Because Konan is a girl, Nagato and I can't take off our clothes, so we can only wash our clothes in this way."

"What about Xiaonan?"

"Xiaonan, she can't take off her clothes, she can only stand in the rain and wash her clothes."

Jiraiya thought for a while and solemnly asked the three children: "Can you tell me your respective dreams?"

Yahiko answered quickly: "My dream is to become a god in the ninja world and use my own abilities to change the world so that there will never be a war again and there will always be peace in this world."

Xiaonan said: "I also want peace. Of course, if possible, I also want to become the best origami artist."

Nagato said: "My dream is the same as Yahiko's, and the other one is that I want to protect my companions."

Jiraiya was deeply touched - even though these three children lived such an embarrassing life, they still had lofty dreams.It seems that I should really help them.

"Okay, I've decided. From today on, you will be my students, Jiraiya."

"Really? Jiraiya-sensei."

"I'm not kidding, students. And you have passed your first lesson as a ninja."

Yahiko asked in confusion: "What? Teacher, you obviously haven't taught us anything yet."

"No, you have mastered the most basic and important lesson, which is the meaning of ninja. The so-called ninja is not a person who can use ninjutsu, but a person who dares to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens in order to realize his ideals."

Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan listened carefully, as if they had discovered a new world.

"Don't be so nervous. I am very relaxed in class."

Jiraiya looked at the simple cave and thought: Since these three children lack food and clothing and are sleeping in the open, I will help them build a decent home first.

Jiraiya pulled the three of them out of the cave and said with a smile: "I will build a house for you three first, and then I will change into some decent sets of clothes with you."

Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan showed very expectant expressions.Yahiko couldn't help but ask: "Jiraiya-sensei, do you know the ninjutsu to build a house?"

Jiraiya smiled and said, "I haven't mastered Wood Release, so I can't build a complete house." As he said that, he took out a ninja sword and went to chop down the surrounding trees.

Yahiko said a little disappointed: "What? I originally thought Jiraiya-sensei would just conjure a house."

Konan advised: "Yahiko, just be patient."

A moment later, Jiraiya came back carrying more than a ton of wood.

Nagato opened his mouth and asked, "Jiraiya-sensei, you only weigh less than two hundred kilograms, how do you carry a ton of wood?"

Jiraiya said: "This is the second lesson I want to teach you: use chakra to enhance your strength and physique."

"Each of us has chakra. How to create and use chakra is the first subject that a ninja must master."

"Come on, you three give it a try and feel the chakra flowing in your body..."

During the break between classes, Jiraiya and the others built a hut with their own hands and named it the Toad Hut.

The three children couldn't help cheering: "That's great, teacher. Did Jiraiya-sensei work as a construction worker before?"

Jiraiya wiped his sweat and said: "As a ninja, you need to be good at all skills. Okay, the house has been built, and now I have prepared some new clothes for you."

"Wow! That's great. The clothes Mr. Jiraiya picked must look great!"

When Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan saw their clothes, they couldn't help but be a little disappointed - the clothes Jiraiya gave them were pure green frog costumes.After wearing it, the whole person became like a frog, dull and stupid.

Yahiko complained: "I won't wear such shameful clothes!"
