Comparison of the two Hokage: Both ninja worlds are devastated.

He was too proud to be cautious.

The original meaning of this idiom is to be complacent and undisciplined, relying on one's own integrity.

But here in the system,

Its function is to effectively reduce the other party's defensiveness when you have ulterior motives towards them.

It's perfect for launching surprise attacks.

Bond level is incremented in 20% increments.

With each level you ascend, the difficulty of further growth increases.

Especially after reaching 60%,

Aside from a few exceptional individuals, it's generally difficult to improve relationships through everyday things.

A major event or stimulus is needed for a rapid surge in prices.

Therefore, Uehara Siming didn't linger for long.

After a reluctant farewell, they left directly.

Before parting, he also used a self-created sealing rune to seal Nagato's Rinnegan.

In addition to providing a small amount of energy each day to maintain its activity,

Unable to use their abilities, but no longer recklessly expending their own resources.

In the entire Naruto world, if we only consider extraordinary talent,

Nagato Uzumaki, the host of the Rinnegan, and Kakashi Hatake, the host of the Kamui Mangekyou Sharingan, are both worthy of being ranked in the top five.

Even a regular three-tomoe Sharingan,

If transplanted into someone without Uchiha bloodline, it would consume up to ten times the amount of energy and would be permanently inoperable.

This kind of consumption is like opening a hole in the bottom of a pool; even if it's not intense, it's still quite astonishing if it continues for a long time.

Danzo is a case in point; even with standard Kage-level strength, he had to use the First Hokage's cells to suppress each other.

Kakashi, at twelve years old, was in the period when a ninja's strength grows the fastest, and he received a Mangekyou Sharingan.

After decades of consumption,

It's ridiculous that he could unleash the complete Susanoo during the Fourth Shinobi World War and even hold his own against Kaguya.

The anime says that Kakashi decided to stop being so down after seeing Naruto's hard work.

This plot is beyond words.

Is this something you want to do that makes you feel hopeless?

Even if there are many people who don't want to be decadent, can everyone stand up to Kaguya?

Nagato was even more outrageous; he was given an even more exaggerated Rinnegan from a young age.

They used their abilities too early, almost draining the person dry, leaving them skin and bones, and crippling both their legs.

In this way, they all firmly stood at the level of Kage, and one of them took on the entire Konoha, including Kakashi, alone.

Don't say that the Rinnegan's abilities are unbeatable.

Even the most unsolvable ability requires a sufficient quantity and strength of chakra to activate.

Moreover, the more unsolvable and powerful an ability is, the higher the chakra requirement.

Uehara Siming also wanted to know,

If Nagato and Kakashi hadn't been hampered by external advantages at the most crucial moments, how far would they have grown?

Of course, as a precaution, the key to the seal was kept on Nagato himself.

It can be deactivated at any time in case of danger or emergency.

……

With Uehara Shimei gone, Jiraiya immediately felt the pressure increase.

He realized that his previous assumption of working 30 hours a day was too conservative.

Because the course content includes many things that I haven't learned or am not proficient in before.

You must learn it in advance to ensure you don't embarrass yourself in class.

However, this process wasn't just about the three of them, Xiao Nan, growing rapidly.

Jiraiya himself had also quietly undergone significant changes.

It could be said that these were the things I missed and ignored when I was at the bottom of my class during my school years.

Not only is it fully back, but it's also been super-duped and enhanced.

Gradually,

Even his entire demeanor had lost its previous frivolity and playfulness, replaced by a sense of composure.

Of course, they'll still be funny when it's time to be.

Perhaps it's because that world once contained too much sorrow and cruelty that no one wanted to face.

This forced him to resort to such unconventional methods to escape reality and conceal his true feelings.

But here, it's no longer necessary.

Xiao Nan and her two companions didn't notice these changes much because they spent so much time together.

Because it is not a sudden and dramatic change, but a gradual and natural one.

But in the video,

A person's experiences over several years can be condensed into just a few minutes.

Almost every scene makes him seem like a completely different person, as if he has undergone a complete transformation or a profound enlightenment.

This caused many people to marvel, exclaiming repeatedly, "Is this really Jiraiya?"

Jiraiya himself, from the original ninja world, shook his head repeatedly.

He kept saying things like "Impossible, absolutely impossible".

Three years passed by in a flash.

One day, the weather was perfect.

The Rain Country, which is usually shrouded in dark clouds and heavy rain, was unusually sunny with clear skies.

The flowers, plants, and trees all stretched out their bodies as much as possible, desperately trying to absorb the hard-won sunlight.

In a huge, deep crater, as if it had been blasted open by something.

Jiraiya, his face covered in mud, slowly crawled out of the pit. His clothes were tattered, and his once snow-white hair was now covered in charred black.

It looks incredibly ridiculous.

"Damn it, that guy actually taught you even this technique!"

"You've been secretly cultivating all this time, just to surprise me today?"

When Jiraiya said this...

Nagato immediately hid behind Yahiko, blushing.

But Xiao Nan, who is usually gentle, actually said with a sly look:

"My brother Uehara once said that the greatest respect you can show to your teacher is to defeat him with your own hands."

"The student surpasses the teacher"—this signifies high-quality teaching.

"Really? Thank you then."

Jiraiya wiped the dirt off his face with his hand.

His tone seemed filled with helplessness and resentment.

However, the smile on his face was impossible to hide.

Although he didn't use Sage Mode, even in his normal state, he already possessed the strength of a peak Kage.

To be able to fight him to this extent, the three of them have indeed grown remarkably.

Aside from a lack of practical experience, he is already capable of handling things independently in other aspects.

Besides, Nagato didn't use the Rinnegan.

The outcome of a battle between Sage Technique and the Rinnegan is still uncertain.

A moment later, Jiraiya changed his clothes, tidied his appearance, and said goodbye before leaving.

As the teacher's figure gradually blurred...

Yahiko suddenly chased after him, shouting loudly at the retreating figure:

"Teacher, when the Holy Kingdom of Peace is established, we will surely meet again."

Xiao Nan followed suit and shouted:

"Teacher, remember to ask Yuan-gege to write me a letter."

Chapter 159 The Rise of the Intelligence Minister

Three years have passed, and Konoha has undergone some changes.

When Jiraiya returned to the village, he felt as if he had been transported to another world.

Before even reaching the main gate,

From afar, a skyscraper even taller than the Hokage Rock could be seen.

Like a pagoda, it stands imposingly in the very center of the village.

It highlights arrogance and recklessness.

The building's exterior is covered in a deep blue glass, which looks stunning under the sunlight.

It seemed as if it were not of this world.
