Jiraiya was stunned.
He has seen many ninjas who are determined to be Hokage, some for power, some for fame, some to prove themselves, and some for family expectations.
He has also seen many people who keep saying they want to change Shinobi World, but the changes they talk about are either military conquest or empty talk about ideals. Few people really care about the question of whether the changed world will make those at the bottom better off.
But the person standing in front of him now and saying these words was an orphan who had been treated as a demon fox by the whole village from the first day he was born, and had lived in indifference and rejection for twelve full years.
This man who had suffered so much malice from this world did not say he wanted revenge and destruction, or even said he was resentful.
Instead, say "Because I have suffered hardship, I don't want other children to suffer the same!"
Jiraiya I feel a little sore in my eyes.
He turned his head away slightly, pretending to rub his smoke-stained eyes, and quickly rubbed the corners of his eyes with his fingers.
He wrote many novels, built countless beautiful worlds in his books, and stuffed all the ideals that could not be realized in reality into fictional texts.
Write your hopes on paper and leave them to future generations to realize.
But Naruto, standing in front of him at this moment, told him in the simplest and calmest tone that there were some things that did not need to be escaped, and some ideals that did not need to be written in books. As long as you were firm enough, you could become that beam of light.
"Having such a goal requires strong strength."
Jiraiya rubbed his eyes and his voice returned to his usual carefree tone:
"You have to be stronger than anyone else, strong enough to make Five Great Nations sit down and listen to you."
"You have to be faster than any enemy, fast enough to block all dangers before everyone is injured."
"You still have a long way to go before that goal, so you have to work hard Naruto."
Naruto nodded, then sat down cross-legged again and began to perform daily Chakra refining.
While refining, he secretly said, "I'm sorry Pervy Sage, it's true to become Hokage, and it's true to change Shinobi World, but facing the Ōtsutsuki Clan behind me, I have no interest in playing ninja games with Shinobi World's major countries!"
an hour later
Naruto opened his eyes from the refined state of Chakra, looked around and found that Jiraiya's figure had disappeared.
Then Naruto found that the stone Jiraiya had just sat on was pressed with a piece of paper. Naruto picked it up and took a look at the paper, which said, "Continue tomorrow, don't be lazy, Jiraiya!"
Naruto spread out Good and Evil Perception and found that there was no Chakra signal around, and Jiraiya was no longer there.
Even the two ANBU who were monitoring him were not there.
Sure enough, after Jiraiya officially took over his practice, Third Hokage withdrew ANBU who was originally monitoring him.
With one of Jiraiya and Sannin personally watching Naruto, ANBU level monitoring is really not needed.
After confirming that no one was around, Naruto separated fifty Shadow Clone Technique with his hands Hand Seals and asked them to continue practicing the wind attribute Chakra Nature Transformation behind Hokage Rock.
Then several Shadow Clone Technique were separated to act as sentinels around them. Once Chakra approached, they would immediately disarm the clones and send back memories to the main body, so that when Jiraiya came back, he would know immediately.
After doing all this, Naruto took out two Flying Thunder God Special Kunai made by Chakra-Conductive Metal from the ninja bag.
These two Kunai are the most expensive ninja tools in his hands at present. Not only are they expensive, but more importantly, they are of practical significance.
Naruto placed the two Kunai flat on his knees, concentrated Chakra in his right hand, and began to carve strokes one by one on the metal plane of the handle with his fingertips.
In a moment, the outline of a five-pointed star emerged from the metal surface, with four smaller five-pointed stars surrounding the large five-pointed star.
After carving the first one, Naruto did not pause, picked up the second one and followed the same pattern.
After doing all this, Naruto held one of the special Kunai in his hand, closed his eyes and activated the coordinates of Flying Thunder God, and the next second his figure disappeared from where he was.
The next second he appeared in the cave behind the waterfall.
Everything is as usual in the cave.
Perception Isolation Barrier is still running stably, and the ordinary Flying Raijin Kunai he left behind is still in its original position.
Naruto walked over and put Kunai into the ninja bag, and then put the special Kunai that had just been engraved with the five-pointed star mark back on it.
The imprint on this special Kunai is more clear.
No matter where he is in the future, this coordinate can be quickly sensed and he will come back immediately.
Naruto stood up and looked down at the other special Kunai left in his hand. There were also a dozen ordinary Kunai engraved with Flying Thunder God Formula in the ninja bag as spare consumables.
"It's a pity there are only two!"
"When Chunin Ninja Exams is over, I can customize more when I have money."
"Although Chakra-Conductive Metal is expensive, when put in the Flying Thunder God system, it is the multiplier of Power Level."
Naruto planned in his mind, and then activated the Flying Thunder God coordinates to return to the back mountain of Hokage Rock.
Shadow Clone Technique They were still concentrating on practicing the wind attribute Chakra Nature Transformation, and the dead leaves in their palms were cut open a little faster than before.
Several Shadow Clone Techniques in the distance were quietly guarding in various directions. No alarm was sent back. Jiraiya has not returned yet.
Naruto walked out of the training area alone and walked along the path on the edge of the rock wall to the top of Hokage Rock.
He stood above his father Minato Namikaze's forehead and had a panoramic view of the entire Konoha.
Good and Evil Perception is on.
This time Naruto did not act like before, but instead directed the focus of perception precisely to the special location discovered this morning.
Sensory feedback comes back quickly.
This is an area hidden in the hinterland of the Konoha edge mountains, surrounded by layers of Barrier.
The density and complexity of Barrier far exceed that of ordinary Perception Isolation Barrier. It not only has a physical isolation layer, but also has multi-layer Chakra perception barriers, anti-detection traps Barrier and complex Formula detection networks.
If Good and Evil Perception hadn't been able to lock in the malicious signal, he would have never been able to detect the existence of this place.
"What the hell is that place?"
Naruto whispered to himself, frowning slightly.
The only places with a large number of Barrier around Konoha are the ANBU headquarters, the archives directly under Hokage, and the forbidden arts seal library. The density of Barrier in these places is very high.
Naruto roughly knows the locations of these places, and none of them coincide with the area in front of them.
There are so many Barrier places in Konoha. They should not be so hidden, nor should they be unrecorded in all public maps and information.
Unless this place doesn't exist publicly.
Naruto Suddenly thought of someone.
Shimura Danzō, Konoha's root of darkness.
An old friend of Hiruzen Sarutobi for three generations, a core member of Konoha Council of Elders, and the founder and sole controller of the Root organization.
This old guy's role in the Hokage world is extremely unique. He is almost the person in charge of all gray areas in Konoha. He is responsible for a large number of tasks that are not convenient for Third Hokage to perform publicly, and has also caused a lot of tragedies that should not have happened.
