Since I have always thought it is too early to accept apprentices at the age of twenty-two? As a proud disciple of the third generation, there are few famous families in Konoha Village who want to worship under him in the future, but the white-haired immortals always feel that it is a waste of their youth to accept apprentices at this age.

That thinking has finally changed until today.

Originally, it was just a teaching lesson in stand-in techniques entrusted by the three generations.,But the just arrived Jiraiya saw a battle that even he couldn't help but admire... That dark-haired imp has the decisiveness and judgment necessary to be a ninja, and not only that, but he does have a terrifying instinct to fight...

If the time to launch the stand-in technique is one minute earlier, it will be easily seen through by the Sharingan like the last time, and if it is one step later, I'm afraid that Kunai will hit his body... Engaging in such suffocating melee combat, while still calmly figuring out a winning strategy - how much this bloodless or gifted imp resembles himself at the time...

Sometimes, appreciation is such a simple thing, and there is not much special reason, it is just a change of feelings.

"Well... Well, no... It doesn't matter, in fact, you can apprentice without graduating~"

…

The so-called apprenticeship ended in such a hurry, and after asking Zhenyong's personal information, he said that he would go to his house first and wait for him to come back at night, and the wrinkled smile like an old chrysanthemum made Xiao Zhenyong shudder - I'll take it, this old guy won't be the hue of the little master...

Zhenyong subconsciously turned his head and looked at the water gate that was still Xiao Zhengtai - he really looked very beautiful! The standard of acceptance of lustful immortals will not be based on their appearance, right... It's a bit rude to think so, but it's undeniable that if it's really so brave, it can be considered a mixed blessing - although it's not a good thing to be targeted by such an old pervert, but at least it proves that you're still a handsome guy, isn't it!?

See, women aren't the only ones who pay this attention to their appearance...

The appearance of Jiraiya has taken most of the attention, and it is not unacceptable to worship under this guy's door... At least it's much better than that guy from Orochimaru - Zhenyong just refused to come because he had the impression that war was about to break out... If his small body really goes to the frontal battlefield, it won't be a death in minutes?! When you're a little master, I'm stupid, how comfortable is it to squat in school!?

Hawkers, but since the other party has relaxed the conditions to the point that it is okay not to graduate, then he has nothing to complain about~ Besides, as a subordinate of Jiraiya, he was naturally branded as the Hokage, and the old ghosts of Uchiha may have to weigh it if they want to make a move on themselves.

Overall, the benefits of this matter still outweigh the disadvantages~

Zhenyong, who figured it all out, silently touched the back of his head, showed an innocent smile, and then quickly threw himself into the sparring with Watergate. It's a pity that he didn't know anything when he was still young at this time, and this scene that just happened at the ninja school would be the beginning of his "misfortune" in his life...

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― teacher's dividing line―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Different from the teachers in the ninja school, in the shijie of the ninja, after graduating from the school, the students will follow a leading teacher to form a combat team to continue learning, and this bond between master and apprentice is sometimes even stronger than the family - ninjutsu, cultivation experience, and even life experience, it can be said that the person who is most affected by a ninja is his teacher.

Therefore, apprenticeship is very important in the eyes of ninjas, and whether or not you can meet a wise teacher also determines the ninja's future achievements and the path to be taken to a large extent.

When Jiraiya came to the residence of the Thousand Hands Clan, Nan Mu and Mizuho were actually very surprised, after all, compared to the Thousand Hands of Mori at the end of the hero, this is a well-known figure in Konoha Village.

"Ah~ Actually, it's nothing, the main purpose of visiting today is for your son."

"You mean really brave?"

"That's right, that's right." Jiraiya-sama habitually touched the back of his head, "Actually, I've taken him as an apprentice today, but he's still in the ninja school, so I thought I'd say hello to Zhenyong's parents first." ”

"Ah, that's right!" Mizuho, who was standing on the side, covered his small mouth in surprise, although he and Nanmu were both masters of the upper ninja level, but compared to the young man in front of them, they definitely had no strength to fight... It has long been rumored that the three disciples of Hokage-sama are actually very close to the strength of the shadow level, and when I saw it today, it was really like this, "You come in quickly." ”

"Aha, then bother."

…

That night, Jiraiya had a very pleasant family dinner with the two boys at the Thousand Hands House, and of course, the lustful fairy seemed to have found a piece of jade again between the cups and the lamp, and the little imp with golden hair seemed to be called Bo Feng Shuimen.

It's hard to say the actual combat effectiveness and potential, but the clear and firm eyes and sunny-like personality are very much in line with Jiraiya's taste... I mean the taste of the apprentices!

"Ah, I'm so full of food~"

In the courtyard after the meal, Zilai also took the two little ghosts to chat comfortably, compared to the still somewhat restrained water gate, Zhenyong seemed very calm.

"I said, master," Zhen Yong scratched his hair boredly, "I said in advance, I can't compare to Shuimen, I'm innate good at water and earth, I'm..." Hey, hey, let this old guy regret it~ Since I promised Lao Tzu, it's a dog skin plaster, and I can't get rid of it in this life~

Having said that, according to the strategy of hugging the thighs, this time I hugged a thick thigh again.

"I don't even have an attribute."

"Really?"

…

The white-haired man said this, he looked at the sky calmly, the smile in the corner of his eyes did not fade, but became more gentle—that expression was a picture that Zhenyong will never forget in his life.

When he was still a child, he could only look at the side face from the perspective of looking up, but that casual and rare smile would be engraved in his heart forever.

"That's really interesting~My disciple~"

…

There is a wonderful feeling that it seems to be the first time for him to live in this shijie for nine years

… Came alive.
