Chapter 23: The Examination of the Middle Faith (17)
The riverside outside Konoha Village.
"So, let's continue practicing. "Jiraiya.
"Hmm. Naruto condensed the chakra on the sole of his foot, and then continued to release a certain amount of chakra to maintain his weight.
"......" Naruto bravely took the first step, his feet on the water, and did not sink.
"Yo Si. Naruto carefully placed his other foot on the water, and the "......" didn't sink either, "yes......! Tom!"
The excited Naruto fell overboard again.
"I got carried away at the beginning, and I can't learn it. "Jiraiya.
"Long-winded. Naruto took off his soaked clothes and continued practicing.
……
Jiraiya looked at the embarrassed Naruto and said, "I can't control it at all." ”
"Cut~" Naruto.
"Hey, try condensing the chakra again. Jirai also noticed the pattern looming in Naruto's belly.
"Huh, condense chakra?" Naruto.
"That's right. "Jiraiya.
"......" Naruto concentrated on the chakra, and the pattern on his stomach became more and more obvious.
"I see, this is the nine-tailed seal, the double four-elephant seal, the double seal, the gossip seal, and the nine-tailed chakra that deliberately leaked out of the four-elephant seal became this child's chakra, Watergate...... You're doing this to protect this child. But the next five seals terminated this effect, and the even-numbered seals and the odd-numbered seals caused the child's chakra and the nine-tailed chakra to mix, unable to stabilize, and this child was also difficult to condense the chakra. Jiraiya thought to himself, "I guess it was a seal added by someone else, the seal is very rough, and it was made by Orochimaru." ”
"Boy, isn't it hard to condense Chakra?"
"Well, that's right, I don't know why......" Naruto was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
"Put your hands up. "Jiraiya.
"Hmm, why?" said Naruto.
"Alright, leave it alone, put your hands up. "Jiraiya.
"Really, asking for so much. Naruto thought.
Jiraiya condensed the chakra in his hand and hit Naruto directly in the stomach: "The Five Elements Unseal." ”
"Hah-" Naruto received the sudden blow, and his body instantly turned into a bow and flew out.
"Ahem, ahem...... What are you doing?" Naruto clutched his stomach, the five seals on it had been lifted.
"Nothing, just to help you control the chakra better. "Jiraiya.
"How can anyone help people like this!" Naruto shouted angrily.
"Alright, you can take a walk on the water again. "Jiraiya.
"Really. Naruto got up indignantly.
Standing cautiously on the water: "Strange?" Naruto jumped left and right on the water, "I don't know why I was able to walk......"
"yes! I finally made it!" Naruto cheered.
"It's almost time to teach him how to control the Chakra of the Nine-Tails. Jiraiya thought to himself.
"Hey, boy, how long are you going to jump?"
"Yay!" Naruto ran ashore excitedly, "Thank you, womanizer. ”
"It's okay, piece of cake. "Jiraiya.
"In this way, it won't take long to achieve the goal of becoming the strongest Hokage!" Naruto said happily.
"Aha......" After hearing Naruto's words, Jiraiya burst out laughing.
"Huh?" Naruto looked at Jiraiya in bewilderment.
"Just you, the strongest Hokage, boy, do you know who the Hokage is? Jiraiya looked at Naruto, who didn't know the height of the sky.
"I know, the third generation is a lustful old man, and the fifth generation is Sasuke's cousin. Naruto said proudly.
"What about the first, second, and fourth generations?"
"Well...... I don't know, but it's okay, I'm going to be the strongest Hokage!" Naruto said confidently.
"Oh, how old are you, then?" said Jiraiya.
"Hmm...... Naruto counted his fingers, "I'll turn 13 in October." ”
"Hmph! Don't talk about it, let's talk about the five generations. "I'm going to kill Naruto's sharp spirit, "Do you know how old he was when he became the Hokage?"
"Hmm...... I don't know. Naruto thought for a moment.
"He's been the Hokage since your age. "Jiraiya.
"Eh, really?" Naruto looked surprised.
"That's right, and he's already surpassed me at a younger age. "Jiraiya.
"Are you strong?" asked Naruto.
"Nonsense! I'm an apprentice of the third generation, and a teacher of the fourth and fifth generations. "I'm a little angry.
"Huh!?
"Of course it's true, I'm one of the legendary three ninjas, and the entire ninja world has my legend. "Jiraiya.
"It turns out that the lustful fairy is so powerful. Naruto thought.
"That means that Miyome is the strongest?" Naruto.
"No, the strongest is the five generations of Hokage, he is young, his strength is above the five major powers, except for the God Destroyer, there is no rival. Jiraiya said proudly.
"Then you must have taught him a lot of ninjutsu, right?" Naruto said excitedly.
"Well, of course. "Jiraiya.
"Then, can you give it to me?" Naruto's eyes lit up.
"This won't work. "Jiraiya.
"Eh, why?" Naruto.
"Because you are two completely different people, and teaching is about teaching according to your aptitude, you can't teach exactly the same, you can only teach what suits you best. "Jiraiya.
"Then will I be stronger than the fifth generation?" asked Naruto expectantly.
"It depends on how hard you work. "Jiraiya.
"Hoo!" Naruto raised his hands excitedly, and then said impatiently, "Then, let's start practicing now!"
"Yes. "Jiraiya.
"What kind of practice is next?" Naruto looked forward to.
"I'll teach you a trick. "Jiraiya.
"Ahh
"Before you can teach you a trick, you have to know yourself about it. "Jiraiya," may not have noticed that you have two kinds of chakras. ”
"Huh, two?" Naruto looked at Jiraiya suspiciously.
"Haven't you felt any special chakra so far?"
"It's said that there have been cases where chakras suddenly appeared and suddenly became very powerful, but ...... I don't remember what exactly happened at the time. "Naruto.
"That's right. "Jiraiya.
"However, it feels different from the usual condensed chakra, taking the color as an example, the usual chakra is blue, and the special one is red. "Naruto.
"Well...... "Jiraiya."
"Hey, are you listening?" Naruto looked distracted when he saw Jiraiya.
"Alright, let's stop here for today's practice. "Jiraiya.
"Eh, it's not dark yet, why don't you continue practicing?
"Don't be impatient in your practice, otherwise your body will not be able to bear it. "Jiraiya.
"Oh. "Naruto.
