"Natural Energy cannot be directly absorbed and utilized by the human body. Once you cannot control the proportion during the absorption process, Natural Energy will backfire on your body and turn you into a stone frog alive."
"Then it becomes a stone statue that can never be restored."
"Mount Myoboku Some old Toad who have been practicing Senjutsu for decades have several of them turned into stone and standing on the training ground as warning monuments."
"So I won't teach you this Ninjutsu right now, at least not at this stage."
Jiraiya looked at Naruto.
"Pervy Sage, don't you want to see Fusion's Wind-Nature Chakra's Rasengan?"
Naruto didn't refute, just changed the topic lightly.
Jiraiya paused for a moment.
"You bastard... you are taking advantage of someone's misfortune, I'm telling you!"
Just when Jiraiya was organizing his words to prepare for a counterattack, Naruto had already walked more than ten meters forward.
"Hmph, my power isn't enough for you, why should you learn that dangerous thing that will turn you into a stone statue?"
Just then
The voice of Nine-Tails rang out from Sealing Space, with a hint of irritability in his tone.
Just now Jiraiya woke up when he said the word Senjutsu, and now he is lying on the grass and tapping the ground with his tail irritably.
"Kurama, not only do I want to learn, but you also want to learn."
Naruto smiled softly when he heard this and said to Nine-Tails.
Nine-Tails was stunned when he heard Naruto say that not only should he learn, but he should also follow suit.
It explodes instantly,
"What?"
"Do I want to learn too?"
"Naruto What did you say?"
"I am the strongest Tailed Beast, and I have my own Chakra!"
"I don't need anything like Natural Energy!"
Nine-Tails bounced off the grass, its nine tails exploded, and its eyes widened.
"Kurama, Sage of Six Paths How did you become so afraid of learning new things back then?"
"Fusion of Natural Energy and Tailed Beast Chakra can be done in theory, and don't you think Nine-Tails Sage Fox Mode is cool?"
Nine-Tails was silent.
It's not that I was convinced, it was Naruto who mentioned Sage of Six Paths.
"Humph..."
Nine-Tails lay down on the grass again, snorted and stopped talking.
"Let's go, Pervy Sage."
Naruto turned his head and smiled at Jiraiya who was lagging behind.
Only then did Jiraiya realize that he had been led along the way by a twelve-year-old kid using Ninjutsu as bait.
But it happened that I couldn't refuse this bait.
Jiraiya quickened his pace and walked side by side with Naruto. He began to think about how to adjust Naruto's Senjutsu introductory training program so that this brat would be frightened and give up automatically on the first day he came into contact with Natural Energy.
At this moment, Naruto's footsteps stopped.
His Good and Evil Perception captured two malicious Chakra.
The two Chakra maintained a very steady tracking rhythm in the forest behind them.
Jiraiya was walking in front, thinking about Senjutsu's training plan. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Naruto's slowed down pace, and immediately stopped and turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"We are being followed."
"Track?"
"Tracking a Konoha Sannin plus a Genin?"
"Who can think so hard?"
Jiraiya's first reaction was to laugh, but when he saw the serious expression on Naruto's face, he immediately put away his smile.
"Are you sure you're following?"
"Not an ordinary patrolling ninja or medicine-gathering villager passing by?"
"Two people, Chakra's malice is very strong, and the tracking rhythm has been maintained for some time."
"Not ANBU, nor the remnants of Sunagakure."
"Didn't you feel it?"
Naruto turned to Jiraiya and asked.
Jiraiya closed his eyes, expanded his range of perception, and frowned slightly after a moment.
Soon he vaguely sensed two Chakra, but they were not as clear as Naruto said.
Jiraiya was a little surprised. He didn't expect Naruto to have stronger perception than him, but now is not the time to ask.
"Since there are friends following behind, it wouldn't be appropriate not to say hello."
"Let's go, Pervy Sage, let's go meet them."
After saying that, Naruto walked towards the direction of the two malicious Chakra sources.
He had already roughly guessed who these two people were.
Jiraiya stood there for a moment looking at Naruto's back, put down his hand from the backpack strap, moved his wrist, and then followed Naruto into the forest.
"Kisame, we were discovered."
On a tall tree.
Itachi Uchiha slowly raised his head, and the scarlet Three-Tomoe Sharingan looked through the layers of leaves in the distance.
"Did you find it?"
"As expected of one of the legendary Sannin, such a keen perception."
Kisame on the side grinned, with an unfriendly arc on his shark-like face.
But he was only surprised, not afraid.
From Kirigakure's defection to now, he has fought against more powerful Kage Levels than he can count on both hands, and one Jiraiya is not enough to make him flinch.
"But it's okay, it saves us the trouble of finding them again."
"Just in time to capture Nine-Tails Jinchuriki right here and bring him back to complete the task assigned by the leader."
As he said that, Kisame stretched his hand behind his back and held the bandaged Samehada.
Samehada squirmed in the bandage, and the end of the knife handle trembled slightly under the touch of Kisame's fingers, as if in response to the owner's murderous intention.
Itachi Uchiha did not respond immediately.
His eyes were fixed on the two figures approaching quickly in the distance, and his mind was rapidly calculating his current physical condition and the upcoming battle situation.
One of Jiraiya, Konoha Sannin, the successor of Mount Myoboku, and the teacher of Fourth Hokage.
An opponent of this level cannot be solved with just a few moves, not to mention that his body has begun to be eroded by the pain. Every time Sharingan uses it one more time, he is overdrawing his remaining time.
Without any guarantee of capturing Nine-Tails Jinchuriki unscathed, this battle must be fought quickly or retreated.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
At this moment, two piercing sounds sounded, and then the figures of Naruto and Jiraiya landed one after another on a big tree opposite Itachi Uchiha and Kisame.
The distance between the two parties was less than twenty meters, and the wind in the woods passed between the four of them, picking up the leaves on the ground and then gently letting them down.
"Akatsuki person?"
The moment Jiraiya saw Itachi Uchiha and Kisame wearing black and red cloud windbreakers, they recognized each other's identities.
Jiraiya's pupils shrank slightly, and he instantly judged in his mind that the other party was coming for Naruto, or the Nine-Tails in Naruto's body.
According to the intelligence he collected, Akatsuki has been secretly collecting Tailed Beast in recent years. Nine-Tails is one of their most important targets, and Jinchuriki of Nine-Tails is now standing beside him.
Jiraiya's nerves became tense and he was also secretly surprised.
He only discovered the following of the two men after being reminded by Naruto, who had already sensed the location of the other party before.
What is the level of this kid's perception?
"First time meeting Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and one of the legendary Sannin, Jiraiya."
Kisame was the first to speak to break the silence.
With a cruel smile on his face, he first stayed on Jiraiya for a moment, then turned to Naruto:
"Mr. Weasel, it seems we are lucky today, the target is delivered to our door."
Jiraiya's eyes darkened.
"Akatsuki guys, your target is Naruto, right?"
"I see, it seems you already know something, Lord Jiraiya!"
Itachi Uchiha heard the words and spoke slowly.
After speaking, he raised his chin slightly and looked straight at Naruto with a pair of scarlet Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
