Tenchi let out a scream and plunged into the seawater.
A moment later, he surfaced.
Although he bore a few scorch marks, his arrogance had not diminished in the slightest.
"Hmph... As expected of Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin who is as famous as Lord Orochimaru... You really do have some skill..."
"..."

Jiraiya thought for a moment, then turned and looked toward Yohibi.
The latter instinctively shrank back, then turned and ran.
Once Yohibi entered the water, her body immediately began to
