Jiraiya fell silent after listening to Naruto's words.

To be honest, he was somewhat responsible for Naruto's current situation.

Just as Naruto said, although they were not blood relatives, he and Naruto were half relatives.

Minato died to protect the village, and it was reasonable for him, as a master, to take care of Naruto.

But for the so-called child of prophecy, he ignored Naruto.

At that time, he knew that Minato left an orphan after his death in the battle, and thought that the village could not treat this child badly, right? So he did not go back immediately. Unexpectedly, when he returned a few years later, rumors spread in the village, and Naruto went from the son of a hero to a demon fox despised by everyone.

He went to the third generation to argue, but the old man threw all the problems to Danzo.

This is simply a big joke. The highest commander of the village was fooled by a Danzo and had no power to fight back?

Looking at the old man with a repentant face, Jiraiya knew that this person was far from the master he remembered.

The current Third Hokage is first and foremost a Hokage, a politician who only considers the overall situation first. The happiness or dignity of some minor characters is nothing but something he can abandon and sacrifice at any time.

Although Naruto is the son of a hero, he is a powerless and still in his infancy. In the eyes of the Konoha high-level officials, he is just a small character who can be manipulated at will.

From then on, Jiraiya began to resist the village, and at the same time, he became more determined to find the child of prophecy.

He firmly believed that only by finding the person of the prophecy could he give more people hope.

As for Naruto...

For the happiness of more people, he can only be wronged for the time being.

However, this idea began to loosen after talking with Naruto.

He recalled the new prophecy of the Great Toad Sage a few years ago.

That was probably when Naruto was five years old.

The Sage Fukasaku sent him to Myoboku Mountain in reverse and brought him to the Great Toad Sage.

At that time, the great sage said to him: "The law should not be passed on to six ears, and the way should not be passed on lightly."

Jiraiya didn't understand why, so he asked him what he meant.

The big toad said in a different tone from before: "Jiraiya, your next apprentice will bring changes to the world. You need to be cautious. He may bring great disasters or new hope."

To be fair, if there was no prophecy, Jiraiya would definitely bring Naruto to practice with him after returning this time, especially since he had recently heard some bad news. Not only were there people outside the village plotting against the Nine-Tails, but the village didn't seem to be very quiet.

However, with the warning from the great sage toad, he didn't dare to act arbitrarily.

After a long silence, Jiraiya said: "Kid, what do you think of the village?"

Naruto's mouth moved slightly, and he knew that Jiraiya was moved with sympathy after all.

He was very proud in his heart.

On the surface, he showed a puzzled and stunned expression.

After a long time, Naruto's eyes dimmed visibly.

He asked Jiraiya in a low voice, "What does this mean?"

"I'm asking you what you think of the village. What do you think of the people and things here?"

"People and things..."

Another long hesitation.

"Ino is my best friend, Uncle Ichiraku is also very nice, he will treat me to the best ramen, the owner of the barbecue restaurant is also very nice, their meat is very fresh and fragrant. The third generation grandfather is also a very good person if he doesn't steal my grilled fish."

Naruto's words were scattered, and ordinary people didn't even know what he was talking about.

But Jiraiya could probably understand.

The people Naruto was talking about were probably the people who were good to him in the past ten years.

He knew them all, but there were only two or three people.

Jiraiya felt a little sad for no reason.

Maybe he really did something wrong.

Putting aside all distractions, Jiraiya asked again: "Naruto, if one day you have power, what will you do?"

"Power?"

"Yes, power. If you have enough power, and the person who bullied and humiliated you before appears in front of you, what will you do?"

"This kind of thing is simply..."

"Just take what I said as the truth, think carefully, then look into my eyes and answer my questions."

Jiraiya was surprisingly serious.

Naruto met Jiraiya's eyes.

After a moment, he slowly said: "If there is such power, I will probably use it to explore the truth."

Jiraiya was a little disappointed. This was not the answer he wanted. The last person who wanted to explore the truth was his close friend Orochimaru.

That person is now in a quagmire. He wants to save it but can't hold that person's hand no matter what.

If Naruto is also like thisIf so, he would probably have to apologize to Minato.

Naruto didn't seem to notice Jiraiya's disappointment, and he continued: "I want to find out the truth, I want to know why they bully me, why they don't want to live in peace with me. I want to know why I have suffered all these years. After I know the root cause, I will use your so-called power to change everything to eliminate the thing that makes people look hideous."

This child...

Jiraiya opened his mouth, but said nothing.

After a while, Jiraiya rubbed Naruto's head.

"Naruto, you look a lot like the Fourth Generation."

"Are you talking about the hairstyle and color? Indeed, I heard that the adult also seems to have yellow hair."

"No, I mean virtue and talent."

After speaking, Jiraiya looked up at the Hokage Rock.

"Minato, maybe your son is the son of prophecy that I have been looking for for many years..."

...

In a blink of an eye, it was already 2:30 in the afternoon.

The third round of the Chunin Exam began.

There are five people in the semi-finals. The people who entered the finals from the last round of eight to four are Shino, Naruto, Temari, Lee, and Gaara who drew a blank lot and advanced directly.

(A patch, I forgot that Gaara and Naruto advanced to the third round in a tie in the previous preliminaries, so there should be eleven people who advanced from the second round to the third round, that is, Rokudo Toss, Naruto, Gaara, Kankuro, Temari, Shikamaru, Sasuke, Ino, Neji, Lee, and Shino who I forgot.)

(Toss challenged Gaara privately and was emptied of his health bar in one shot. The official competition is exactly ten people. Now the duels are changed to Sasuke vs. Lee, Temari vs. Shikamaru, Naruto vs. Neji, Kankuro vs. Shino, Kankuro hides his strength and directly admits defeat, Ino vs. Gaara, Ino knows that she can't win and directly admits defeat QAQ.)

The process of the semi-finals is basically the same as the preliminary round, and the opponents are determined by drawing lots.

The five people gathered in the middle of the arena and drew lots to decide.

The five people took out the slips from the lottery box of Moonlight Gale in turn, and after reading it themselves, they raised it above their heads to show it to others.

Ino was very lucky. She got a blank lot, which meant she advanced directly to the finals.

The remaining four people faced off in pairs.

Group B, Xiao Li VS Temari.

Group A, Uzumaki Naruto VS Gaara.

Shino got a bye.

On the stands, Kakashi leaned against a pillar with a kiss.

Looking at the names of the two duels displayed on the notice board.

He subconsciously closed his pornographic book.

"Are these two the first match? It looks like they're going to make a big move again."

In the seats of the stands not far away.

Choji opened a bag of potato chips and started eating.

Next to him were his friends from the same period.

After seeing the names of the two people in Group A, everyone had different expressions.

"It's this troublesome guy again." Shikamaru held his chin and couldn't stop sighing.

Ino looked worried: "Naruto, be careful of that lunatic."

Hinata prayed silently: "Naruto-kun..."

On the main road leading to the stadium, Sakura pushed a wheelchair as fast as possible to the stadium.

"Sakura, go faster, it's about to start." Sasuke kept urging while sitting in a wheelchair. At this time, his injuries had not healed and there was a bottle hanging on his head.

Sakura: "Sasuke, don't worry, the game will start in a while. I'm already very fast now, and if I go any faster, it may affect your wound."

Sasuke: "It doesn't matter! I must watch that guy, watch him... cough cough."
