Jiraiya's Shock

Frustrated, Hanabi looked at the pile of clothes in front of her, muttered something, but ultimately continued washing them anyway.

There was no way around it; the Sweet and Sour Fish was just too tempting, so Hanabi finally succumbed.

After finally finishing washing that pile of clothes, Hanabi rushed to the kitchen, because the delicious aroma of Sweet and Sour Fish had been wafting through the air for quite some time.

"It smells so good! It smells amazing! You're getting better and better at cooking fish, sister!" Hanabi exclaimed happily, looking at the Sweet and Sour Fish she had made.

"It was mainly Naruto who taught me; he's a great cook. Here, have some; this fish is a reward for you."

Hinata smiled and handed Hanabi a pair of chopsticks with her fair and delicate hands.

"Thank you, sister. This fish is all mine now. I'm starting to eat."

Hanabi clasped her hands together in a gesture of respect before eating, but just as she was about to start eating, she heard footsteps outside, and then her father, Hyuga Hiashi, walked in.

Then, Hyuga Hiashi and Hanabi stared at each other in the house, and finally, with Hanabi on the verge of tears, she watched her father, Hyuga Hiashi, join the group eating fish.

Time passed slowly, and several days quickly went by.

These days, Naruto was so bored that he started developing various Ninjutsu using his Shadow Clone Technique.

He used various techniques from the Rasengan, the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, and even Ninjutsu he obtained from Danzo to pass the time.

Certainly.

Naruto also focused on studying Sai's secret drawing techniques.

You know what?

With his precise control over Chakra, terrifying Chakra, and countless Shadow Clone Techniques, learning these things was a piece of cake for him, with no difficulty whatsoever.

Only.

After studying for a while, he got a little annoyed. He felt that the more he learned, the less useful it was. Techniques like Wind Release could at least fan him in the summer, but even after developing countless uses for the Rasengan, he felt it was completely useless.

These fancy things are not as powerful as a single Ki Blast, so Naruto completely gave up on learning Ninjutsu and chose to go into "lazy mode" and take a nap.

That's true.

What should have been a peaceful nap was disrupted by someone—none other than Jiraiya, who insisted on taking him as his Jiraiya.

Small villa, living room.

Naruto sat on the sofa, eating grapes that Hinata had peeled and brought to him, and looked helplessly at Jiraiya across from him.

"Naruto, let me tell you, I'm one of the Legendary Sannin. I know many Ninjutsu. If you become my apprentice, you can learn many powerful abilities," Jiraiya, sitting on the sofa.

"I have no interest in your abilities, please leave." Naruto refused without hesitation.

Now, his strength is increasing rapidly every day while he's lying down, and it's increasing by leaps and bounds. With this kind of improvement in strength, he's becoming increasingly lazy to learn Ninjutsu.

After all, Jiraiya teach him a few things, and Summoning Technique and Senjutsu were passable. The others were really useless, and even Senjutsu Mode was of little use to Naruto.

After all.

He could destroy countless areas with a flick of his finger, so Senjutsu Mode was completely useless to him. Therefore, Naruto naturally refused without hesitation.

"Naruto, don't be so quick to refuse. Let me demonstrate my abilities first, then you can make your decision."

Jiraiya smiled and raised his hand, Chakra began to gather in his palm, and soon a spinning Rasengan appeared in his palm.

"See that? That's the Rasengan, a very powerful Ninjutsu. If you become my apprentice, I'll teach you the Rasengan."

Jiraiya finished speaking, he revealed a confident smile. Konoha had finally calmed down these past few days, and he could finally go find Tsunade to bring her back to be Hokage. However, he was worried about Naruto being in Konoha.

That's why he came to Naruto time and time again, trying to take him as his disciple, but Naruto always refused. Helpless, he then showed off his power to attract Naruto.

With the Rasengan at his disposal, he was absolutely certain that Naruto would agree to become his disciple, since there weren't many people in Konoha willing to teach Naruto Ninjutsu.

Only.

Just as he was preparing to have Naruto become his apprentice, Naruto suddenly opened his right hand, and an identical Rasengan appeared in his palm.

"This..."

Jiraiya stared in disbelief at the Rasengan in Naruto's palm. He never expected that Naruto could also use the Rasengan; it was a complete surprise to him.

"Naruto, you can actually use the Rasengan? How did you learn it?" Jiraiya asked in surprise.

"Do I even need to learn this? A proper ninja could learn it after just a couple of glances, right?" Naruto thought of a certain phrase and used it without hesitation.

"Take a look?!"

Jiraiya was quite taken aback by those words. He remembered how much time it took him to learn the Rasengan, as it was an advanced Ninjutsu.

Unexpectedly, Naruto said that a proper ninja could learn it after just one glance, which was really discouraging.

However, he took a deep breath and quickly calmed himself down, because he felt that Naruto already knew it and couldn't possibly have learned it just by looking at it once, so he said again.

"Naruto, this Rasengan is just the initial stage. There are many more ways to use it in the future. Of course, this is just a concept, and I am currently researching in this direction."

Jiraiya continued explaining, beginning to elaborate on advanced techniques of Ninjutsu, hoping to entice Naruto to become his apprentice.

"You mean that?"

Naruto's Rasengan in his right hand suddenly grew larger, and then several smaller Rasengan appeared inside Rasengan.

"This..."

Jiraiya was stunned by what he saw, feeling his mind go blank.

He hadn't even figured out how to use the Rasengan himself, but Naruto on the other side already knew it? How was he supposed to entice Naruto to become his apprentice?

Frustrated, Jiraiya said again, "Naruto, your application is good, but there are many more ways to use the Rasengan. For example, adding elemental properties to the Rasengan would make it extremely powerful."

"Add an attribute? You mean the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken?"

Naruto opened his left hand, Chakra rapidly spread out, quickly forming a Wind Release: Rasenshuriken in his left hand, displaying terrifying power.

The appearance of such a powerful Ninjutsu Jiraiya completely dumbfounded. His already shocked state of mind was now utterly stunned.

Even he felt a chill run down his spine and a sense of unease the moment the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken appeared.

"Be careful, be careful, the power of this Ninjutsu is not simple."

Jiraiya watched the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, sensing that the power of this Ninjutsu was probably at the S-rank.

Such a powerful Ninjutsu is rare even in the entire Konoha, and Naruto used it so openly. That's why he warned them to be careful, or the place would be destroyed.

"It's nothing, just a simple Ninjutsu."

As Naruto spoke, the Rasengan in his right hand disappeared, replaced by another Wind Release: Rasenshuriken.

This sudden change completely unsettled Jiraiya, who exclaimed in disbelief.

"This... you can use two Ninjutsu of such power at the same time? And without even Hand Seals? How did you do that?" Jiraiya said, his expression extremely serious.

"I was bored, so I decided to develop it myself."

He spoke lazily, then yawned, and moved the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken in his hand closer to Jiraiya.

Whoosh!

Jiraiya abruptly stepped aside, his expression grave. "Put it away quickly! Do you want to destroy this place?"

"Relax, relax."

Naruto waved the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, easily deflecting it, and then continued to lean back on the sofa eating grapes.

Seeing the two Wind Release: Rasenshuriken disappear, Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief, and then carefully examined Naruto.

He never expected that Naruto was so strong, that he had developed an S-rank Ninjutsu, and that he seemed to be able to control it so well.

But he still asked again with a serious expression, "Naruto, did you really develop this?"

"Of course, this Ninjutsu is appearing in this world for the first time," Naruto said calmly.

"That's true. If this level of Ninjutsu had existed for a long time, I would definitely have seen it."

Jiraiya nodded, but still had some doubts about Naruto's talent. After all, he had heard that Naruto was a loser, so it was impossible for him to change his mind so quickly.

However, he quickly thought of the scroll behind him and the methods of Summoning Technique, and he smiled and said.

"Naruto, I have a Summoning Technique scroll here. As long as you sign your name, you can summon a powerful Ninja Beast, and a powerful battle partner will appear."

Jiraiya smiled and said that he wanted to see if Naruto's talent was really that extraordinary, and the Summoning Technique would be a good test of Naruto's talent.

"Summoning Technique?"

Naruto raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued. He mainly wanted to see how much his talent differed from that in the original story, since he had undergone two transformations and was no longer the same person he had been before.

So he thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but not here. Let's go to the open space above the Hokage Rock."

"Okay." Jiraiya nodded.

Whoosh!
