Undercurrents Stir! / The Konoha Crush Plan

Jiraiya walked ahead, casually replying, and then the two arrived at the entrance of the women's bathhouse in the village.

Chapter 258 Undercurrents!

Looking at the women's bathhouse in front of him, Jiraiya couldn't wait to go to the side and peek through the gap to see what was inside.

Seeing this, Naruto, who was following behind him, frowned and couldn't help but ask, "The training you're talking about, you don't mean taking me to spy on the women's bathhouse, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya, who was perched on the wall, finally spoke up to explain.

"I forgot to tell you, I'm also a writer, and I'm only here to find material for my writing."

As for cultivation, let's talk about that later. For now, let's just relax...

Hearing this explanation, Naruto really couldn't hold back anymore and quickly continued, "I'm sorry, but I cannot accept your explanation."

The words were finished.

He shouted directly under Jiraiya's gaze.

"Come quick! Someone's peeping at the women's bathhouse!"

"Hey?! You little brat..."

Upon hearing the shout, Jiraiya's expression changed instantly, and he turned around, only to see all the women in the bathhouse screaming and rushing away.

Jiraiya, whose plans had been ruined, couldn't help but sigh.

"How could I have yelled in this situation? Now look what's happened, all the material I finally found is gone."

Faced with the complaints, Naruto simply smiled and asked, "Excuse me, you perverted sage, may we begin our training now?"

Jiraiya retorted irritably to the brat who had ruined his plans.

"What's the point of training? With you causing such a commotion, I still need to keep looking for creative material. After all, these voluptuous ladies are indispensable to me!"

Watching the other person's departing figure, Naruto could only follow closely behind, feeling quite troubled.

However, at this moment, Asuramaru reminded him, "As long as you don't give up, there are always more solutions than problems."

Since he wants a pretty girl, why don't you just use your Transformation Technique to create one?

Is this really a good idea?

Although it was highly feasible, Naruto felt his moral compass was condemning him!

However, Asuramaru continued his explanation calmly.

"Don't you want to keep getting stronger? This guy is pretty strong, and he can be of a lot of help to you."

Meanwhile, Jiraiya was walking ahead, was also observing Naruto behind him.

A moment later.

Naruto finally made up his mind and immediately asked to confirm, "If I can bring you a voluptuous young lady, you can teach me how to train, right?"

Jiraiya and turned around, pretending not to care. "That depends on whether I pass."

The words had barely left his mouth.

Suddenly Naruto behind him formed hand seals, creating a cloud of dust. From within the dust, a naked girl amidst the swirling mist could be seen shyly gazing ahead.

This made Jiraiya's eyes widen, Jiraiya he immediately stepped forward to praise him without reservation, "You're exactly my type, you've passed the test!"

But what kind of ninjutsu is this? To come up with something like this, you're a genius!

"Let's call it... Sexy Jutsu."

Naruto replied somewhat uncertainly.

Upon hearing this answer, Jiraiya exclaimed excitedly.

"Since that's the case, let's begin our cultivation now. But you have to promise me that you'll maintain this form as much as possible in the future!"

"All right."

After crossing that line once, Naruto felt that things weren't so bad after all.

"It's settled then, come with me."

After receiving an affirmative answer, Jiraiya quickly led Naruto to the forest located behind Konoha.

Having found an open space, Jiraiya and turned to say, "Before we begin training, let me see how strong you are. Now, attack me with all your might."

Just then, Naruto also wanted to test the strength of this cheap master, so he immediately held several Tri-Pronged Kunai crossed in front of him.

"That would be impolite!"

But Jiraiya was startled when he saw the strangely shaped kunai.

That's Minato's kunai!

What the old man said earlier surprised me; could it be...?

The next moment.

Naruto flung out Tri-Pronged Kunai from his hands, transforming himself into a golden streak of light as he swiftly weaved between them.

"This... this is actually the Flying Thunder God?!"

Jiraiya had a heart attack upon seeing this. He had thought the man was a genius, but it turned out he was an unparalleled genius who surpassed Minato!

So much so that he even felt that Naruto in front of him might be the prophesied child he had been searching for all along!

However, after only a brief moment of thought, he saw a flash of golden light before his eyes, followed by Naruto holding Rasengan.

It slammed straight at him, instantly kicking up a cloud of dust.

Fortunately Jiraiya, Jiraiya immediately dodged the attack and called out, "Stop, that's enough."

Naruto, emerging from the smoke and dust, didn't make a move. He simply put the kunai back into his personal storage space and calmly asked...

"Can we begin our cultivation now?"

Looking at the boy in front of him, Jiraiya could not suppress the excitement in his heart.

"Of course you can. With your current strength, ordinary ninjutsu is no longer effective against you, so I'm going to teach you the Summoning Jutsu to summon ninja beasts for battle!"

He also had another idea in his mind: that when he got older, he might take him to Mount Myoboku.

Learn Sage Mode, and if you have the chance, you can also try asking the Great Toad Sage some questions.

"A summoning ninja?"

Naruto knew a little about it, but not much.

Fortunately, with Jiraiya's guidance, the two began their training.

However, Asuramaru had a different idea. Since it's all about summoning spirits anyway, why not summon the powerful beings recorded in my domain?

Using the Mahoraga as a summoning beast?

At the same time.

Meanwhile, Orochimaru, now in a different form, also obtained some answers from Asuramaru through the part of his soul he left inside Sasuke.

But most importantly, he discovered the other party's identity.

That is Asuramaru, the true Deity worshipped by the Uzumaki Clan!

Therefore, the method they mentioned for achieving immortality must be true!

How could Orochimaru not be excited? He couldn't help but stick out his wet, long tongue and lick the corner of his mouth, giving a wicked smile.

"Asuramaru, I will definitely get you!"

Danzo, hidden deep within the Root, shared similar thoughts, and he summoned his Root.

Several ninjas instantly appeared in front of him, kneeling on one knee and awaiting orders.

Danzo coldly gave the order.

"Find me a chance to bring Naruto Uzumaki back!"

"Yes!"

Upon receiving the command, the numerous Root immediately turned and disappeared into the darkness.

Only Danzo remained, his face grim, muttering to himself.

"Everything I've done is for Konoha!"

Chapter 259 The Konoha Crush Plan

After practicing summoning jutsu for a day, Naruto successfully summoned Gamabunta, the summoning beast of Mount Myoboku, but he was unable to sign a summoning contract.

Unfortunately, they could only prepare to continue the next day.

After saying Jiraiya, Naruto walked alone on the deserted streets of Konoha, the dim yellow lights illuminating the street corner.

The ANBU responsible for protection were all lured away by Root's methods.

Asuramaru also sensed all of this and couldn't help but warn, "It seems someone is getting impatient and wants to make a move against you."

"Could it be someone from the village?"

Bathed in the dim light, Naruto stood there and murmured something.

Asuramaru casually offered his reminder.

"Who knows? But those guys have already been stopped by the people that old man sent to protect you."

After pausing for a moment to make sure the other person had left,

Naruto then returned home.

However, everything that happened tonight was also reported to Hiruzen Sarutobi by these ANBU, and when they learned of this situation...

Although the report indicated that the other party was wearing Sand Village attire, he wasn't foolish enough to assume it was actually done by Sand Ninja; it was just his guess.

Danzo is the most likely candidate!

However, lacking any substantial evidence, Hiruzen Sarutobi could only further increase the number of ANBU protecting Naruto.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

During this time, Naruto constantly challenged Jiraiya's understanding, showing that even without Jiraiya's interference, he could still freely use a portion of the Nine-Tails' chakra.

This is simply incomprehensible.

Why didn't Nine-Tails stop Naruto? Instead, he was willing to lend him his chakra.

Jiraiya confused about this.

Fortunately, he got the answer from Hiruzen Sarutobi, and at the same time became even more convinced that Naruto was the chosen one he was looking for!

The third exam was held as scheduled.

In the dueling arena located on the edge of Konoha.

The circular building, resembling the ancient Roman Colosseum, was already filled with dignitaries and nobles who had come to watch.

The exams are proceeding smoothly.

However, for Naruto now, he has almost no rivals!

After winning, they could only sit in the stands and watch the battles between other contestants below.

Just as Gaara of the Sand Ninja below was injured by Sasuke, drawing everyone's attention, ninjas suddenly launched genjutsu attacks from various parts of the venue.

Pure white feathers, purines filling the air.

It fell on everyone in the room, bringing with it an indescribable drowsiness.

Fortunately, Naruto immediately formed hand seals.

"Untie!"

The moment the genjutsu was dispelled, a sudden change occurred in the venue, with the Sand Ninja and Sound Ninja, who were prepared, attacking almost simultaneously.

The ninjas of Konoha immediately retaliated.
