【“I’ll deal with Jiraiya, and you can take care of the others!” Orochimaru didn’t intend to continue watching the other party’s show, and controlled a large snake to rush towards Jiraiya. 】

【“What a pity, I can’t fight against Jiraiya-sama, one of the three ninjas!” Kabuto and another large snake also rushed towards Shizune, Naruto, and Tsunade who couldn’t move at the same time. 】

["The four-eyed guy Kabuto is very confident, but if he is so powerful, why should he obey Orochimaru!"]

["I dare to say that, anyway, Jiraiya can't show his strength!"]

["Orochimaru and Jiraiya are very smart. They know that their condition is not good, so they deliberately choose each other!"]

["It's better not to joke. Although Orochimaru's hands are sealed, it doesn't mean that he is weak. As for Jiraiya, it depends on the medicine Tsunade gave him and his own drug resistance. Maybe he will recover 70% to 80% of his combat power in a few minutes!"]

[The ground hit by the two big snakes exploded instantly, and everyone dodged in all directions. Naruto was swallowed by a big snake without noticing. Although he struggled to escape from the snake's mouth, he was hit by the huge body of the big snake on one foot, which made his body unable to move. 】

【Jiraiya used the Yellow Spring Swamp to trap the snake controlled by Orochimaru, forming a one-on-one situation. On the ground, Shizune fought back and forth with Kabuto, but she was still one step behind and lost her mobility due to the cut tendons in her feet. 】

["See, Jiraiya can already use this level of ninjutsu!"]

["Shizune can't do it here. The gap between her and Kabuto is a bit big!"]

["I didn't expect Naruto to take action, but I still have to deal with a big snake!"]

["How could the enemy listen to your arrangements? At this time, everyone on the other side must be the target of attack!"]

【Orochimaru dragged his weak hands and rushed towards Jiraiya. Although Jiraiya had used the Needle Jizo to defend himself in advance, he was still exposed due to the effect of the drug and was bitten by Orochimaru who stretched his neck. 】

【Kabuto swept away Shizune who was blocking Tsunade. The splattered blood and the fallen Shizune and Naruto reminded Tsunade of her nightmare again. 】

【Tsunade screamed in despair. Kabuto was unhappy and curled his lips. He punched and kicked Tsunade who had no power to resist. Naruto, who was lying on the ground not far away and unable to move, could only watch this scene with resentment on his face. 】

["Orochimaru can exert more combat power than expected!"]

["Really! He can't kill people, but he's scary. Suddenly he stretches his neck to bite people!"]

["As a fellow medical ninja, Kabuto can't stand Tsunade's behavior!"]

["Maybe he regards Tsunade as a goal to strive for. Look at how rude he is!"]

["Tsk! Even I'm upset. One of the famous three ninjas is being bullied by such an unknown person!"]

["After today, he is no longer an unknown person. After all, Jiraiya has confirmed that he is a strong man who can rival Kakashi!"]

["Kabuto is not good at all. This kind of gangster-like behavior will only anger Naruto. As we all know, Naruto will exert extraordinary strength when he is in high spirits!"]

["So this is the key to breaking the deadlock!"]

"Damn it! Kabuto, I will beat him up next time we meet!"

Naruto waved his fist angrily. Sasuke, who was in a bad mood, couldn't help but sneered: "Hehe, then you have to work hard. After all, this guy is as strong as Kakashi. Be careful that he will knock you down in an instant!"

"Hmph! Don't underestimate me. I can beat Kakashi soon. This kind of glasses guy is nothing!" Naruto said shamelessly. After hearing this, Kakashi scratched his head and looked at him speechlessly: "Hey, why do you suddenly want to beat me down? This has nothing to do with me!"

"Hehe, who asked Jiraiya to use you as an example on the sky curtain? If nothing unexpected happens, everyone will use you as a benchmark of strength in the future, and measure the strength of others by comparing with you!" Tsunade teased with some amusement. Kakashi stared at Jiraiya with dead fish eyes, and then lowered his head in frustration.

【With a full view of the battle on the ground, Orochimaru said to Jiraiya, who was squatting and panting slightly in front of him: "Hehe, the madman in the village is actually running around for the village with that kind of child. He is really going backwards. I am the best at judging people. That child has no talent!"】

【"...That's why I brought him with me." Jiraiya responded with a chuckle: "I have no interest in that Uchiha child. What's the point of cultivating a person who is born with talent!"】

["AnotherSomeone who said Naruto has no talent!"]

["Orochimaru, your eyesight is not good, you are old and presbyopic!"]

["To be honest, Naruto's greatest strength is his perseverance. This kind of thing can't be seen directly, so it's understandable that Orochimaru would miss it!"]

["Naruto has shown confusing behavior. I think most people think the same as Orochimaru at first impression!"]

["What Jiraiya said, is it wrong to be born with talent? No matter how talented you are, you still need guidance. You can't attribute the achievements of geniuses to their talents!"]

["Hehe, it's because he is very similar to you in the past, so you can't let go!" Orochimaru smiled and expressed his thoughts: "Facing Uchiha who was born with the ninja talent of Sharingan, that child will never win! The talent of a ninja depends on whether he is proficient in all the ninjutsu in the world. The so-called ninja... as the name suggests, is a person who uses ninjutsu. ”】

【“The talent of a ninja is not reflected in such places.” Jiraiya naturally would not agree with Orochimaru’s point of view: “The so-called ninja refers to a person with endurance!”】

[“Orochimaru thinks that Naruto is very similar to Jiraiya when he was a child. Does that mean that Jiraiya has no talent in his eyes!”]

[“Is Orochimaru too superstitious about the power of Uchiha? The Sharingan is very powerful, but there is also power in the ninja world that can rival the Sharingan. Why is he so sure that Naruto can’t beat Sasuke!”]

[“Even if the Uchiha clan is still there, I don’t think many people can surpass Naruto who will master the Sage Mode in the future!”]

[“What is a person with endurance? I don’t understand what Jiraiya is talking about!”]

[“In this regard, you can read Jiraiya’s debut work “The Legend of the Perseverant Ninja”. According to Jiraiya’s explanation, it refers to a spirit of persistence, just like Naruto!”]
