My Hokage Journey

Jiraiya pinched Lu Ming's face hard, with a serious expression as if he wanted to confirm whether he was a spy sent by the enemy.

He helplessly allowed it to be verified for a few seconds. Finally, unable to bear it anymore, he broke free from the clutches of this wretched uncle and spoke.

"Jiraiya-sama, I need a suitable set of clothes and shoes. I also lost my forehead protector. Please get a replacement. I also need to take a shower, preferably with hot water..."

Listening to the other party's series of requests, Jiraiya knocked him on the head and interrupted, "Hey, hey, hey, do you think you are the son of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire? You still have so many demands!"

Although his tone was full of disgust, you could still tell from his smile that he was happy from the bottom of his heart.

Because what he was thinking about at the moment was that his teammate Orochimaru would be very happy to hear the news.

"As a martyr who died heroically, don't you get any preferential treatment?"

"It's just this once, I won't do it next time!" Jiraiya thought for a while and agreed. Anyway, it was a small matter, so just treat it as a celebration.

"Then thank you, Lord Jiraiya!" Lu Ming put his hands together and said with a playful smile on his face.

Then he snapped his fingers at Dai and said, "Dai, the problem is solved!"

"That's great. I'll report on the mission first and then go to bed."

"Yeah." You can see the fatigue on Dai's face. The sequelae of forcefully opening the six doors cannot be completely relieved by lying down for two hours.

"What's the problem?" Jiraiya asked in confusion after hearing the conversation between the two.

"The new guard uncle said he has no identity and is not allowed in!" Lu Ming pointed at the fat Konoha chunin opposite and said in a tone of complaint.

"Jiraiya-sama, I really don't know about this..." The guarding chuunin nodded and bent down to explain anxiously, fearing that he would offend this gentleman by rushing into him.

"It's okay, so be it. I'll take him away first." Jiraiya waved his hand in understanding. He didn't do anything wrong.

"Yes!"

…………

Lu Ming was lying in the bathtub made of Tudun with a contented look on his face. A white-haired man underneath with a depressed expression was using his Fire Dunk to heat the bath water.

Only when ninjutsu is used to this extent can it be considered close to life, but this scene is really weird enough.

But he didn't care about this. He was able to take a hot bath on the battlefield. Needless to say, he really enjoyed it.

He raised his head and covered his face with a hot towel, then grabbed an apple with his left hand from the table next to him, brought it to his mouth and took a bite. The juice overflowed, and the sweet and sour feeling filled his taste buds, while the water surface was white. The vast amount of water vapor floats upward from the bathtub. Just imagine how comfortable it is.

"You kid, don't go too far!" Hearing the crunching sound of the apple, Jiraiya opened his mouth and pointed at the boy opposite who exuded extravagance and didn't look like a ninja at all, shouting angrily and funny .

Those who are close to vermillion are red, those who are close to ink are dark. Lu Ming feels that he has been a little distorted by Cangtian, but isn't life meant to be enjoyed? Enjoy the thrill of battle and the comfort of life. Only this kind of life can be considered life. , it’s better to just let it go all the way to the end.

"Does the lustful immortal have anything important to deal with?"

"No, what are you doing!"

"Well, the water seems a little cold..."

"..."

After soaking for about half an hour, Lu Ming finally reluctantly walked out of the tub, said goodbye to the weird cloak, and put on the clothes the other party brought. At this moment, he finally looked human. After several Yue's savage life and the feeling of returning to civilization are really great.

Looking at the neatly dressed young man in front of him, Jiraiya's eyes also lit up. He held his chin with one hand and smiled bitterly. If he had looked like this back then, those little girls wouldn't have been able to catch Tsunade. question.

We haven't seen each other for only a few months, but this kid seems to have a special aura about him, something completely different yet somewhat familiar.

There was a different kind of calmness in his black eyes, and this feeling of confidence made him

Jiraiya couldn't help but treat the other person as a person who could talk to him as an equal, rather than like an elder giving instructions to a younger person.

"Where have you been these past few months? Why do you feel like you've changed a lot, and you seem to have grown a little taller, right?" Jiraiya asked with a sigh.

Lu Ming gathered the loose black hair on his back and asked, "Where did Master Jiraiya's psychic beast come from?"

He didn't understand it at all. It seemed that the two of them were not on the same chat channel, but he still replied, "Miaomu Mountain, a place full of toads, do you know?"

Of course he knew, and continued to ask, "What about the magic?"

As soon as the word "senjutsu" came out of his mouth, Jiraiya immediately understood it. Thinking of the vague aura on his body, it turns out that this is the case, so he also went to that kind of place.

He knew very well how terrifying Sage Mode was. After entering Sage Mode, the body would transform into a Sage, and the ninjutsu used would begin to be called senjutsu.

According to the Immortal Mask, the user's Immortal Mode perfection can be judged, that is, the degree of control over natural energy. The more perfect the user, the less alienated the body will be. Like himself, his hands and feet will turn into frogs, and his face will also have obvious alienation. Although he can barely use it, But it can't be called perfect. Every time he claims to be the Toad Immortal, he is somewhat untrue.

If it is a perfect immortal mode, the body function can be exaggeratedly increased by dozens of times, and both physical and ninjutsu can be greatly enhanced. Master Shenzao once told him that if it is a perfect immortal body, the battle Doubling your strength several times is not a problem at all. He was shocked when he heard this and was so shocked that he was speechless.

What is the concept of doubling? Even if it is doubled, one Kage-level ninja is equal to two in an instant?Although the algorithm is a bit rough, it is enough to clearly demonstrate the power of the immortal mode.

Has the young man in front of him already mastered the immortal mode?

This idea was automatically filtered out by Jiraiya as soon as it popped up.

It's definitely impossible. It should only be a little contact. After all, he has worked so hard to reach this level. It's not that he underestimates Lu Ming. It's just because he has actually tried it, so he understands better that this is really not a temporary thing. It takes only half a session to master something. There is no shortcut to gaining powerful power. You will get what you pay for. This is a very standard common sense.

"It seems you have been to that kind of place too."

"Yeah, originally I thought I was going to die, but I didn't expect to survive from a desperate situation. Life is really wonderful. You never know what will happen next until the last second." Lu Ming, who had tied up his hair, suddenly felt A general sense of life.

"You're starting to sound more and more like your teacher. No wonder that scoundrel wants to accept you as his disciple." Jiraiya's youthfulness and maturity as always made him sigh a little.

"After bathing and changing clothes, I also went to see the teacher. Do you want to go with me, the lustful immortal?" He didn't pay attention to Jiraiya's name for Orochimaru. This was originally a unique nickname between them. It didn't mean to hit or scold him. Love?

"Forget it, you master and disciple should reminisce about old times, I'd better go find my disciple." Jiraiya, who was standing at the door, turned around and raised his eyebrows, "Orochimaru is actually really worried about you, I know you Everyone was silent for a long time after the incident..."

After saying that, Jiraiya walked out casually, leaving Lu Ming in a dazed state. I don't understand, is Uncle Snake serious?

…………

In the main tent, the atmosphere was quiet. Orochi put down the terrain map in his hand and sighed. The figure of a certain young man came to mind again. Did he really value this disciple so much, or was he the so-called master and disciple? As for the relationship, has Sarutobi-sensei ever felt this way?

Just as his eyes were blank, his thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a faint light from behind. The curtain was lifted, and it lit up briefly and then dimmed again.

Orochimaru turned his back and asked in a surprised tone, "Are you back so soon? Don't you have to spy on the kunoichi taking a bath?"

"……teacher!"

"..."

The respectful voice made the figure on the opposite side freeze slightly, and then slowly turned around, still wearing that familiar smile.

Perhaps he was too deeply influenced by his previous life. Uncle Snake's smile always reminded him of the scenes of him abducting and trafficking underage children. Lu Ming sighed in his heart, it was an inherent impression that could not be changed...
