Konoha: Naruto, trained by Aizen

"Aren't you curious? Why would the famous Sannin appear in Konoha and follow you?" Jiraiya followed Naruto unwillingly, his wooden clogs clattering loudly.

“I’m not curious.” Naruto kept walking. “You’re following me just to see how the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in the village is doing, and whether it’s as others say.”

“Uh, that’s true.” Jiraiya followed closely behind, stroking his chin as if he was planning what to say next.

“I didn’t expect Jiraiya-sensei to return to the village. It seems the Third Hokage hopes he will become your teacher, Naruto,” Minato said in the sealed space.

"Although Jiraiya-sensei seems unreliable and is very lecherous, he has mastered a lot of secret techniques, among which Sage Mode is the strongest."

“Naruto, you can learn from Jiraiya-sensei. Once you master the Summoning Technique, you can enter Mount Myōboku to train in Sage Mode. I think that might be a good place to train your spiritual pressure,” Minato said thoughtfully.

Naruto stopped in his tracks, catching Jiraiya, who was deep in thought, off guard. Jiraiya bumped his forehead into Naruto's back, then winced and rubbed his head in pain.

"Is this really one of the Legendary Sannin?" Even the most refined Naruto found it hard to maintain a smile at this moment.

He stared blankly at the old man, Jiraiya, acting crazy, his lips twitching slightly.

“I said,” he sighed helplessly, “Don’t follow me anymore, I’m very busy.”

"Ahem, actually..." Jiraiya dropped his playful expression, looking slightly embarrassed.

"Actually, I heard that you are Kakashi's disciple, right?"

"Hmm," Naruto groaned.

"That's quite a coincidence. Do you know who my disciple is?"

Jiraiya continued, "My disciple is Kakashi's teacher, Minato Namikaze, so nominally speaking, I should be considered your... master's master." He was getting completely confused himself.

Perhaps due to guilt, Jiraiya always seemed somewhat awkward when facing Naruto.

He looked at Naruto.

But he found Naruto looking at him with amusement: "So you want to teach me ninjutsu?"

“That’s right!” Jiraiya nodded vigorously, then changed his words: “To be precise, I can accept your request to learn ninjutsu.”

"Oh, no need, I'm fine now." Naruto regained his gentle smile and turned to leave.

"Don't go! Wait a minute!" Jiraiya followed behind, wiggling his hips, his heart filled with anxiety.

Isn't Naruto supposed to be the Little Sun?

How can someone have such a... terrible personality?

Chapter 84 Nephew, your uncle has left first.

Ultimately, after much pleading (just kidding), Jiraiya finally became Naruto's mentor.

And on the second day, at the seventh class gathering, he arrived arrogantly.

"Hey, Kakashi, you've all grown up now." He greeted Kakashi with a slightly flippant tone.

"Lord Jiraiya," Kakashi said respectfully, "when did you return to the village?"

Kakashi's attitude toward Jiraiya surprised Sakura and Sasuke.

Unexpectedly, the lecherous and extremely frail old man in front of me was actually one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha.

"I just arrived yesterday. I didn't expect Kakashi to be such a competent teacher now, teaching his students so well," Jiraiya praised with a smile.

"No, it's just that my disciple is more talented," Kakashi said modestly.

Although Kakashi and Jiraiya didn't interact much, Kakashi still held his master in great awe.

Jiraiya doesn't look like a ninja, but his strength is genuine Kage-level.

Moreover, among the legendary Sannin of Konoha, Jiraiya was the most skilled in combat.

In terms of pure combat, the other two are really no match for Jiraiya.

"Did I disturb you?"

"of course not."

"Then I'll take my disciple with me?"

"Eh? Your disciple is...?" Kakashi looked on in astonishment.

"Naruto." Jiraiya winked at Naruto.

"Well then, junior disciple, your uncle will be taking his leave now." Naruto, unusually playful, nodded slightly to Kakashi.

Kakashi: ?

.......

"Damn it!!! Naruto actually has the guidance of the Sannin, Kakashi!!! Quickly teach me all your secret techniques, I can't let you fall further and further behind!!" A few minutes later, Sasuke, whose body was stiff, let out a roar and shamelessly grabbed Kakashi.

"Please, Kakashi-sensei, teach me even more powerful ninjutsu!!!"

"I...sigh." Kakashi sighed deeply and said earnestly, "My foolish disciple, in terms of seniority, Naruto is already your grandmaster. Why do you compare yourself to your grandmaster?"

.......

In a good mood, Jiraiya hummed a little tune as he led Naruto down the street.

We soon arrived at the waterfall.

"Alright, Naruto, before you learn ninjutsu, I need to know what your dream is?"

"Shouldn't you learn about my dreams from other people?" Naruto asked curiously.

"Ahem, that's different. Everyone's dreams change, so I want to hear your latest dream."

"Oh, the same as before."

"You! Cough cough cough!!!" Looking at Naruto, who still maintained his refined smile, Jiraiya suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

"Then why do you want to become stronger?"

"Hehara..."

"It can't be the same as before."

"To protect those I wish to protect, to become the Will of Fire, to ignite..."

"Alright, I understand." Jiraiya interrupted Naruto, and said thoughtfully:

"Your bloodline limit is outstanding. I think developing your bloodline limit is the main thing, but you also need to learn some ninjutsu to assist your bloodline limit."

"Of course, you can't rely too much on your bloodline limit, since your current bloodline limit has a lot of drawbacks."

"However, this is the first time I've ever heard of a bloodline limit that allows one to control their vision..."

"Want to try it out?" Naruto interrupted Jiraiya and asked gently.

"Experience? That's great! Use all your strength to weave an illusion. Oh, and remember to use Kido. I want to see how far you've developed your bloodline limit." Jiraiya readily agreed, lightly tapping his toes as he appeared on the grass ten meters away from Naruto, looking completely relaxed.

Clearly, despite possessing Kage-level strength, he wasn't taking Naruto's impending attack too seriously.

After all, he had traveled the ninja world for decades, seen countless strange and unusual bloodline limits, and fought against countless top-tier powerhouses.

Even if this bloodline limit is outstanding, it only affects the visual aspect.

He planned to completely overwhelm Naruto with his Kyoka Suigetsu and Kido techniques, shocking the usually refined Naruto and forcing him to obediently learn ninjutsu from him.

Upon receiving a response, Naruto's lips curled into a faint smile.

"Shatter, you illusion, you mirage."

Suddenly, the illusion of beauty was unsheathed, and accompanied by soft whispers, it shattered into pieces and disappeared into the air.

Jiraiya felt his vision distort, like a drop of water falling into a lake, causing ripples in the once calm world.

"The ruler, a mask of flesh and blood, all things, soaring high, bearing the name of humanity, truth and temperance, standing only as claws on the wall of a dream that knows no sin."

"Hado No. 33: Blue Fire Fall".

Exploding flames fell from the sky, turning into rolling fireballs and bringing with them intense light.

"Wow, is this Kido? It's so cool!" Jiraiya exclaimed, his hands rapidly forming hand seals.

"Earth Escape·Earth Flow Wall."

A 15-meter-high earthen wall appeared in front of Jiraiya, easily blocking the fall of the Azure Fire.

The seemingly fierce fireball didn't even produce a glimmer of light before it went out right in front of the earthen wall.

"As expected of a Kage-level ninja, even such a simple ninjutsu is so powerful," Naruto thought to himself.

With just a simple ninjutsu technique, the difference between Kakashi and Jiraiya was already evident.

"Hado #57: Earth Shakes." Naruto didn't stop and continued his attack.

As the earth churned and the earthen walls collapsed, he instantly appeared before Jiraiya and unleashed a merciless slash, Kyoka Suigetsu.

"Wow, what amazing swordsmanship!" Jiraiya was cut in two and turned into smoke.

But Naruto instantly bridged the distance between himself and the real body, unleashing a straight slash.

The sound of the blade whistling through the air rushed towards him, and Jiraiya's expression immediately turned serious.

This must be the Instant Step, comparable to the Body Flicker Technique.

There was absolutely no chakra fluctuation. This must be some kind of special footwork. What an amazing talent.

With just these few moves, Naruto's strength has already reached the Chunin level.

A thought flashed through Jiraiya's mind, and he formed hand seals:

"Ninjutsu: Needle Jizo."

"What kind of ninjutsu is this?" To Naruto's astonishment, Jiraiya's long silver hair hardened, completely enveloping his body.

"Clang." The Mirror Flower Water Moon struck the silver hair, sparking intensely. The force of the blow made Naruto's hands tremble violently.

"Hey Naruto, how's this ninjutsu? Want to learn it?"

"Lion's Mane Technique." As soon as he finished speaking, long silver hair formed the shape of a lion, completely enveloping Naruto.

Jiraiya said with a smug look:

"See that, Naruto? This is the toad sage's own creation, isn't it...?"

"Whoosh." Before he could finish speaking, another slash came flying through the air.
