rock ninja log

"Ah~haha~huh~" Jiraiya looked like a ninja dog tired from running. He supported his knees with one hand and a small tree no bigger than the mouth of a bowl with the other, breathing heavily.

Jiraiya gasped a few more times and stood up slowly. What was very troublesome was that he actually encountered an enemy in the Land of Fire. Minato had already lost track of him, and his life or death was unknown.

It was very close to Konoha Village and could be reached in about an hour. It was only an hour, but Jiraiya felt agitated for no reason.

"Minato, you'd better be fine..." Jiraiya was very worried. Suddenly, a green leaf fell without warning. It was almost instinctive, and Jiraiya's body tensed up instantly.

"The art of instantaneous body!!"

"Buzz——"

The whistling sound of shurikens cutting through the air gave Jiraiya, who was flying in the air, an unpleasant premonition. This trembling sound like a swarm of bees showed that the shurikens had been densely packed to a terrifying level. "Ninjutsu"

——Lion's hair-raising technique!!"

The tedious seals were completed in an instant, and the long hair standing upright on Jiraiya's back automatically danced like an electric current, eventually forming a hedgehog-like shell that completely protected the entire body.

The rain of shurikens quickly collided with the long hair transformed by ninjutsu, and the popping sound kept making a muffled sound.

"Earth Release - Multiple Earth Current Wall Techniques!!"

After the instantaneous body technique stopped, Jiraiya quickly activated the earth flow wall technique. Konoha Village and its surroundings, which had experienced cruel wars, did not have as many huge trees for shelter in the past, so the earth flow wall became the best

s Choice.

The earth flow wall did block the remaining shuriken attacks. Jiraiya still maintained a half-kneeling posture with his hands still pressed on the ground. The rumbling earth flow wall continued to break through the ground layer after layer.

It emerges from the soil layer by layer.

It seemed like a perfect defense, but suddenly, the extremely strong earth flow wall stacked up by several layers began to shake like it was hit by an unknown heavy object.

The maintenance of the technique was momentarily interrupted, Jiraiya's pupils suddenly tightened, and his body tensed up as he was about to jump up.

"It's not good..." He only had time to complain before Jiraiya was pushed away by a giant stick that was thicker than both of him combined.

Familiar attacks and ninja tools, "Golden Cudgel...is it Sarutobi-sensei..." Jiraiya, who was flying awkwardly in the air with a plastic bag blown up by the wind, only felt a surge of pain in his abdomen.

Jiraiya temporarily ignored the black blood that usually spurted out of his mouth. The pain as if his bones were falling apart made him lose all ability to adapt.

"I can't feel the control of my body anymore, hey..." He flew to the highest altitude and turned into a small black dot, and then he fell faster and faster at a free fall speed. If he continued like this, he would hit the ground face first, and he would automatically

Laiya screamed inwardly.

"Ahhhhh..." In the end, Jiraiya still landed face first.

…

The powerful golden cudgel in the hands of Sarutobi in his prime was enough to knock a tailed beast over. Jiraiya was hit by the golden cudgel and fell from a high altitude, bleeding from his mouth and nose, and he immediately passed out.

He was unconscious for a long time, so that the weather gradually changed, and the dark clouds and lightning did not wake Jiraiya up. When the cold rain fell, Jiraiya finally woke up with a wit.

He opened his tired eyelids with difficulty, and what he saw in his blurry vision was a pair of bandaged feet. The ninja instinct made Jiraiya wake up instantly. Only ninjas can have such clothing that facilitates movement.

"Ah~" After moving a little, Jiraiya heard the cracking sound of the bones in his waist, as if his waist was about to break.

"Oh~ it's Jiraiya." Wearing a black battle armor, letting the rain hit the armor and turning it into tiny water droplets, Sarutobi, who was holding a pipe in his mouth, looked very surprised, "Really, I thought I was encountering

When it comes to the enemies invading Konoha, tsk tsk."

Jiraiya easily heard the irony in Sarutobi-sensei's words. He raised his head with difficulty and looked at Sarutobi, and said bitterly, "Teacher, I think you did it on purpose."

Just like the secret scroll of the first Hokage and the Thunder God Sword of the second Hokage, the golden cudgel of the psychic beast ape demon is also the symbol of Sarutobi Hiruzen. Jiraiya has only seen the golden cudgel before.

He was aiming at the enemy, and Jiraiya felt vaguely that something was wrong.

"Now, Jiraiya," Sarutobi looked down at Jiraiya at his feet, his eyes gradually becoming cold. The rain extinguished the weak flames in the pipe, and he flipped his hand to pop out the unburned tobacco leaves and ash in the pipe.

It landed on Jiraiya's head, "It's time to tell me about Minato, Jiraiya." Sarutobi's tone was a little serious.

"Minato?" Jiraiya was stunned for a moment. After several efforts, he finally got up and hurriedly tried to explain, "The reason why I disguised myself as a Mist ninja and attacked Minato was because of an assessment..."

"Assessment?" Before Jiraiya could finish his words, Sarutobi immediately interrupted him and sneered, "Jiraiya, how long has it been since I guided the training of the three of you? I also want to give you one.

It's about the assessment." Sarutobi said quietly with amusement in his eyes.

"Hey! No... I'm injured, I'm going to die! Ahhhhh!!"

"Now, let's test the physical skills." Sarutobi slowly put his feet back.

…

"Now it's illusion, ninjutsu - the art of darkness!"

…

"Seal - Earth Sealing Raizo Jutsu!"

…

"Ninja Technique—The Jutsu of the Great Swamp!!"

…

There is no doubt that Jiraiya, who was in poor health, was defenseless against Sarutobi Hiruzen's attack.

This kind of thing happens in every world. He shouldered the position of Hokage with his young body and also became the mentor of the three Jiraiyas. Sarutobi Hiruzen was called the most stern one.

The brats of Minato's generation are called Grandpa Sarutobi. This kind of thing often happens in reality. It's normal for a father to teach his son, but the grandfather who loves his grandson jumps out of the wheelchair and hits the dog on the head with a cane...

The glory of Konoha was gradually fading, and Hiruzen Sarutobi, who regarded the new generation of ninjas as all hope of Konoha, was almost uncontrollable in anger when he saw the dying Minato escaping back to the village. Jiraiya touched his

Bottom line.

After practicing magical senjutsu, Jiraiya was injured more seriously than Minato in the end, and the two of them lay in the same ward in a dramatic manner.

Minato's arms were wrapped in bandages, and his legs were in plaster and nailed to steel plates, but this did not stop him from being interested in picking out all kinds of fruits he liked.

"Jiraiya-sensei," Minato called out to Jiraiya as he picked up a bunch of shiny purple grapes with crystal drops hanging on them, "Do you want to eat this?"

With traction on his neck and a drainage tube in his mouth, Jiraiya could only move his eyes. He heard Minato's words, but it was very difficult to answer him.

Every time he took a breath, his lungs whirred like bellows, with tearing pain that made Jiraiya not want to say a word.

"Huh... Huh... Minato, cough cough... don't worry about me, the nutrient solution... cough cough, actually tastes very good..."

After being furiously attacked by Hiruzen Sarutobi, Jiraiya's stomach was severely damaged and he could not eat for the time being. The nutrient solution in Subulaji tastes good, it's a lie. (To be continued)
