Konoha's strength is supreme

Shizune said they were almost reaching the village.

However, after driving for another day, we still didn’t reach the village.

How bad is this concept of time?

When it got dark at night, the four of them lit up a bonfire and camped under the stars.

If you include the young man driving the bus, it should be counted as five people. However, due to some strange rules, the young man did not want to be too close to the four people and rested alone.

Naruto guessed that he was afraid of being silenced if he heard something he shouldn't have heard.

Naruto sat in front of the bonfire, sitting in rows with Shizune. The beating bonfire reflected on Naruto's shiny head, and there was even some reflection, causing Shizune to glance up from time to time.

Naruto was very tired and stressed about this.

Of course, what was even more stressful was that Jiraiya called Tsunade aside, muttering not knowing what he was talking about.

The first one is definitely not a love story.

Because the two of them would look back at Naruto from time to time.

This made Naruto guess that the content of the conversation between the two must be related to him.

So Naruto was worried

He can't open the eighth door to enhance his hearing yet, because although there is nothing wrong with the surface of his body, now his whole body hurts when he uses chakra.

Alas, my lip reading is not good enough. If I have a chance, I will study lip reading.

After more than ten minutes, Tsunade and Jiraiya seemed to have reached some kind of agreement, and the two finally walked back from the dark night in the distance.

Tsunade looked serious and said: "Naruto, are you really planning to take me as your disciple?"

Damn Jiraiya, he must have caused trouble again

Naruto glanced at Jiraiya, turned to Tsunade and said seriously: "I have made up my mind."

Tsunade nodded, and then said to Jiraiya: "If you have something to say, say it tonight. If Naruto doesn't change his mind after tonight, he will be my disciple from now on."

Jiraiya stared at Naruto seriously and asked: "Naruto, when you were blown away by the explosion, did you use another chakra in your body?"

Then Jiraiya could feel it for a moment

And it was still at the moment when the detonating talisman exploded and a large amount of chakra surged.

Naruto lamented that Jiraiya's intuition about chakra is as sharp as a dog's

Pretending to be stupid, he said, "I don't know. I lost consciousness after the explosion."

It was a fact that he was unconscious. After the explosion, there was only fire in Naruto's eyes, and his consciousness sank into the Nine-Tails sealed space to accept the Nine-Tails' chakra.

Then there are almost no memories.

I don’t know how far I was blown away, or where I was blown away.

My whole brain was in a state of confusion, and my body still had a strong burning sensation.

Originally, Naruto thought it was the feeling of Nine-Tails chakra wrapping his whole body, but now it has been determined that the real reason is that he was roasted

The skin all over his body was carbonized, and then the Kyuubi's chakra repaired him again.

It can be said that I really took a trip to the gate of hell.

Jiraiya came to Naruto's side and opened Naruto's sleeves. The firelight reflected a piece of skin that was whiter and smoother than that of a girl.

After all, this is a new growth and should be comparable to a baby.

Jiraiya pointed at Naruto's skin and said, "When I found you, the surface of your body was charred, like a sweet potato in a fire."

As he spoke, Jiraiya pulled out the charcoal ash beside the fire, pulled out a roasted sweet potato, then pointed at the roasted sweet potato that was charred on the surface, with sparks and smoke, and said, "That's what it looks like."

Naruto's eyes had turned into pea eyes, and he tilted his eyes towards Fanshu, and he had something in his mind that he didn't know whether to say or not.

I'm so worried

Jiraiya continued: "At that time, I thought you were dead. When I was preparing to collect your body, I accidentally broke the surface of your body."

"Your skin is like this." Jiraiya said as he peeled off the skin of the roasted sweet potato, revealing the tender, tender, sweet sweet potato flesh inside.

"New skin leaking out."

Naruto's mouth twitched

Interrupted: "Just say what you want to say. Your metaphor is not vivid at all. If I had beaten you, you would have flown by now."

Baked Sweet Potatoes with Sesame Eggs

Naruto decided to eat two of them after Jiraiya finished inking to relieve his hatred.

Jiraiya said seriously: "My consciousness is that if it weren't for the chakra in your body, you would be dead now."

Naruto nodded: "Then what?"

Jiraiya stared and said, "This is the power that saved your life. You shouldn't hate it. You should accept it and let it become your power."

"Power itself is neither good nor bad, only the person who uses it"

"Besides, don't you want to save Sasuke?"

"If you can accept this power, I will teach you how to use it, and then you will be able to achieve what you want."

Jiraiya said solemnly, even seriously: "If you want to rescue Sasuke, you must defeat Orochimaru. Orochimaru is far more powerful than you imagine. You know that he killed the Third Hokage, but you don't know that after he killed The Third Hokage even killed the Fourth Kazekage of the Sand Ninja Village, and then came to Konoha pretending to be the Fourth Kazekage."

Naruto looked at the fire, and the dancing flames seemed to ignite certain emotions in Naruto's eyes.

fire of vengeance

But in fact, Naruto felt very sad

It hurts for Jiraiya's persistence.

Of course he knew how powerful Orochimaru was. If he didn't know, he wouldn't have kicked Orochimaru out in the first exam.

It's just that that idiot from the Third Generation held another resurrection match. If he hadn't been smart enough, he might have been tortured by Orochimaru.

Naruto didn't speak, and the way he looked at the fire had another layer of content in Jiraiya's sight.

He thought Naruto was moved.

Then he continued to speak harder: "Also, Orochimaru is not the only danger you are in. I have been tracking and investigating Orochimaru after he defected from the village. During this period, he joined a mercenary organization called Akatsuki. You The two people I met were members of Akatsuki.”

"I don't know exactly what they are going to do, but what is certain is that the power in your body has been targeted by them."

"You can be considered as fighting against them. In your opinion, that explosion should be enough to deal with them, but what I want to tell you is that those two people are in trouble now."

Jiraiya became more and more excited as he talked, and Naruto looked at the flames.

I sighed in my heart that Jiraiya deserved to be a novelist. Although he wrote unsavory novels, his speech was still very well-controlled.

If you are an ordinary person, I am afraid that you have been persuaded.

But he has his own plans.

His plan was thousands of times safer than Jiraiya's, so he wouldn't consider Jiraiya's plan at all.

"It's over"

Naruto didn't look at Jiraiya.

Because he was afraid that his eyes would reveal emotions that shouldn't be exposed.

"That's it, let me say a few final words. Even if the power of the Nine-Tails is as strong as the sky, it is still the power of the Nine-Tails."

"And what I want is real strength, what I want is my own power."

"I'm very grateful for your care for me. After my parents died, the village didn't care much for me. Even if it did, it was out of sympathy for the orphans."

"And you made me feel a deeper, family-like care. I can feel the emotion that comes from the bottom of my heart to protect me, but I have my will, just like a child who has to learn to walk on his own when he grows up, so I I hope you can respect my choice, support me silently, and just believe in me."

"I don't want to reject you anymore, so let this be the last time. I will learn from Tsunade as my teacher and learn what I want to learn."

After Naruto finished speaking, Jiraiya froze in place.

At this moment, Tsunade called out: "You are so brave, my sister will protect you from today on."

Naruto raised his head and prayed: "Sister Tsunade, you must help me save my hair."

"Pfft" Shizune squirted.

The originally serious atmosphere was instantly changed by Naruto's last words.
