Tianqi Steals the Bells

Such strong calculation ability, and his Taijutsu are not weak at all. He is as powerful as Orochimaru back then. No, he is even stronger than Orochimaru at the same age. This blond kid in front of me is quite capable. What's more, there is also Uchiha Sen'u hiding in the shadows. It seems that there will be no chance to write a novel. Jiraiya smiled slightly as he looked at Minato Namikaze in front of him.

Perched on the tree trunk, Tianqi watched the battle between Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya with great interest. "As expected of the future Eternal Sister, she already possesses such strength at such a young age. If we gave her that thing, she'd be flying to the heavens! It seems Sarutobi Hiruzen's choice of him was not without reason!"

"Well, I admit you're quite different from that red-haired girl!" Jiraiya nodded in agreement. He didn't have that kind of ability at his age, and to be honest, he really envied those talented people.

Minato Namikaze didn't speak, but slowly formed hand seals.

"Earth Release: Earth Pulse!" Instantly, the ground within a five-meter radius trembled like ripples on water.

"What! Genin can actually use this kind of Ninjutsu! He shouldn't have enough chakra!" Seeing that Chakra Minato Namikaze had actually released Ninjutsu, Jiraiya's eyes widened, and his body swayed along with the shaking of the ground.

"The opportunity has come!" Seeing Jiraiya's unsteady stance, Sen'u also saw an opportunity. He pulled out eight Kunai hands.

Sen'u made her move too, huh? She really knows how to seize opportunities! She's practically an opportunist. Seeing the Kunai rushing towards him Jiraiya simply jumped off the shaking ground.

Seeing Jiraiya leap to dodge Minato Namikaze, a slight smile played on his lips. Everything was proceeding as planned. He immediately began Hand Seals while shouting, "Sen'u, seize this opportunity!"

Sen'u quickly appeared beside Minato Namikaze, and the two began rapidly Hand Seals.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

"Wind Release - Great Breakthrough!"

The two completed their Hand Seals simultaneously. Sen'u breathed Minato, and Minato exhaled wind. The combined power of wind and fire more than doubled, and a six-meter-long fireball shot towards Jiraiya in mid-air.

"Hehe, this is really interesting. They actually used a combination Ninjutsu. The wind fuels the fire, and the fire intensifies the wind. The two combined have created an effect greater than the sum of their parts. What are you going to do now that Jiraiya is suspended in mid-air?" Tianqi watched the battle scene below with great interest, resting his chin on his hand.

He actually used a combination of wind and fire Ninjutsu! Its power is almost on par with an A-Rank Ninjutsu! Are all kids this fierce these days?! Jiraiya in mid-air, stared wide-eyed in shock, but his hands were also rapidly forming hand seals.

"Water Release: Water Severing Wave!" Although Jiraiya was Hand Seals from behind, he was faster than the other two. As the Fire Style approached him, he directly spat out a jet of water that collided with the fireball.

Water and fire collided, and steam rose continuously. The two sides' Ninjutsu were evenly matched, resulting in a stalemate in mid-air. However, as time went on, Jiraiya's water column slowly gained the upper hand. Jiraiya was, after all, Kage Level ninja. How could he not defeat the Ninjutsu of two kids?

"They actually managed to hold their own against me for a while, those two kids are really something, but that's all for now!" Jiraiya's lips curled up as he continuously channeled his Chakra, sending water columns slowly towards Sen'u and Minato.

Meanwhile, Uzumaki Kushina, also noticed the lunchbox in the distance.

"There's a bento box on the rock! A ninja has to see through every trick in the book, hehe!" Uzumaki Kushina chuckled as she looked at the lunchbox in the distance, suddenly having the idea of having a hearty meal. She cut the rope again and crept towards the bento box.

Seeing Tianqi using an A-rank Water Release Ninjutsu to bully the younger ones, Tianqi was furious. "You shameless Jiraiya! A Kage -Kage Level ninja using such a powerful Ninjutsu against two recent graduates! You're utterly shameless!"

"No, no, I have to slap him in the face today. How should I do it?" Tianqi stroked his chin and pondered. He came here today specifically to see Jiraiya get slapped in the face. If he didn't succeed, it would be a wasted trip. Suddenly, he saw Uzumaki Kushina sneaking off to eat alone while he was standing in the tree, and he immediately had an idea.

"Got it, got it, let's do it this way! Hehe, Jiraiya 'm going to beat you up today!" Tianqi looked at Jiraiya a lewd smile, and immediately used White Zetsu's copying ability to transform into Uzumaki Kushina's appearance, with the same Chakra.

"Hehe, Lord Jiraiya, here I come!" Tianqi chuckled as he looked at himself and immediately rushed down.

"Sen'u, Minato, I'm here to help you!"

"Kushina?" Sen'u, Minato, and Jiraiya looked at the suddenly appearing Uzumaki Kushina with puzzled expressions. Wasn't she hanging from that tree over there? How did she get here like this?

"Fire Style: Great Flame Bullet!" Tianqi quickly Hand Seals and released a Fire Release Ninjutsu to join the battle. Instantly, the fireball stopped retreating and began to advance.

Damn it! Why is this girl causing trouble too? If I, a Kage Level powerhouse, can't handle you guys, this is like kicking me in the foot! Damn it! Jiraiya immediately increased his Chakra output, and the two sides were locked in a stalemate again.

Seeing that Tianqi had actually focused his energy on the Ninjutsu duel, Tianqi revealed a smug smile. Tianqi's clone Jiraiya reached behind Jiraiya. This clone was created before he came down to help. The clone chuckled and easily took the three bells hanging on Jiraiya's waist.

The clone sneaked underground and came up behind Kushina, quietly hanging the bell on her. After doing all this, the clone turned into a wisp of white smoke and disappeared with a bang.

Tianqi, having also finished dealing with the situation using his clone, said to the two beside him, "Sen'u, Minato, I've stolen the bell! Let's quickly retreat to the open space we just came from!"

"You stole the bell! Well done, Kushina!" Sen'u was slightly surprised upon hearing this, then gave a thumbs up.

"In that case, let's get out of here quickly!" Minato Namikaze felt something was off about Kushina, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. Putting the question aside, he decided to retreat first.

The three of them stopped channeling Chakra and ran quickly towards the open space they had just arrived at without looking back, while Tianqi secretly slipped away halfway there.

Normally, the Chakra of this kind of Ninjutsu cannot be easily broken and withdrawn, but Jiraiya saw that the three kids had stopped, he also sprayed the water jet to the other side. He couldn't really attack with all his might like on the battlefield.

But when he saw the three little guys run away without looking back, he was a little confused. "What are the three little guys doing? Why did they suddenly run away? Do they think I'm too strong and don't want to play with me anymore?"

Jiraiya puzzled, followed Sen'u and the other two.
