After showing off his ability, Taruho confirmed the information about Jiraiya with the people around him, and found that it matched him, so he felt a little relieved.
"It seems you are really that Lord Jiraiya."
"That's right! I am the handsome, charming, powerful and famous Shinobi World Fifth Hokage Lord Jiraiya!"
This bragging was matched with his obscene smile with his eyebrows twitching unconsciously...
Taruho looked at the other party's appearance, the corner of his mouth twitched, and secretly complained in his heart:
'You obviously have such a decent face and majestic figure, but why do you look so vulgar when you smile?'
This contrast shattered Taruho's majestic filter of the title "Hokage".
However, complaints are complaints, and Taruho's vigilance did not decrease. He stared at Jiraiya and continued to ask:
"Since you are Fifth Hokage, do you know Mr. Dan Katō?"
Dan Katō?
This name was like a bolt of lightning, striking Jiraiya instantly.
The cynical smile on his face disappeared without a trace in an instant, and his whole aura became serious and dignified.
"How did you know that name?"
The soul of Dan Katō seems to have returned to Pure Land.
He has not produced Konoha since his last resurrection, and is conducting experiments with Second Hokage and Orochimaru.
The last time Dan Katō went on a mission was Second Shinobi World War. The Young Naruto escort in front of Land of Demons looked like he was only fifteen or sixteen years old. How could he know Duan's name?
There must be something wrong with this.
Seeing Jiraiya's violent reaction, Taruho felt slightly relieved.
It seems that the other party does know Mr. Dan Katō, and the relationship may not be ordinary.
The alert look on his face softened slightly, but he still remained solemn, stepped aside to get out of the way, and said to Jiraiya:
"Mr. Dan Katō is currently with Master Miko."
"He appeared in spirit form."
"Please come with me."
Spirit form?
Jiraiya's brows instantly knitted together.
Appearing as a spirit... what does that mean?
Does it mean that the broken soul did not completely return to Pure Land, or did it temporarily return to Mortal World from Pure Land for some special reason?
And a place where the soul can stay or travel between Mortal World and Pure Land...
Iwaya Slope!
Yes, the channel connecting the human world to Pure Land, Iwaya Slope, is 80% located at Land of Demons.
Only this mysterious place involving the boundary between life and death and the exchange of souls can allow Dan Katō to reappear in the form of a spirit body.
This discovery made Jiraiya's desire for exploration instantly soar to the top!
He no longer hesitated, nodded to Taruho, and said in a deep voice:
"Please come forward and lead the way."
Taruho said no more, turned around, led Jiraiya through the Palace's heavy door, and walked towards the depths of the Palace.
Their figures disappeared into the deep corridor inside the Palace.
The guards outside looked at each other and returned to their posts.
While walking, Taruho introduced the situation to Jiraiya in a smooth tone:
"Mr. Katō showed up two days ago."
"At that time, Mr. Miko was studying etiquette in the side hall. He suddenly appeared from the floor, startling all of us."
Jiraiya asked the most critical question:
"Is he sane?"
Taruho nodded and said affirmatively:
"Sober, very sober."
"And..."
He paused, with a hint of admiration in his tone, "The first thing he did after waking up was to struggle to leave, saying that he wanted to return to Konoha immediately. It seemed that... he had something very important to convey or warn."
Important things...
The information contained in this is probably not trivial.
Taruho continued:
"However, his soul state seems to be very unstable and fragile, as if it will dissipate at any time."
"It is currently being treated and stabilized by Master Miko using the Spirit Talisman left behind by the previous Master Miko. It is temporarily unable to move."
Oh?
Hearing this, Jiraiya raised his eyebrows slightly, and felt a hint of surprise in his heart.
You are really capable, stop.
He had only appeared for two days, but he had already won Land of Demons Miko's trust, so much so that he even used the precious Spirit Talisman left behind by the previous Miko to treat him?
This is not something that ordinary levels of trust can achieve.
It seems that Duan is still very good at communication.
In other words, there is something about him that is enough to attract Miko's attention?
Jiraiya pondered for a moment and then said:
"The Spirit Talisman left behind by the former Miko must be very precious. Konoha will give Land of Demons some compensation." He said while observing Taruho's expression out of the corner of his eye.
However, Taruho's reaction was beyond his expectation.
The Young Naruto guard just shook his head lightly, his tone calm but firm:
"No need."
"Mr. Katō is teaching Mr. Miko Sealing Jutsu."
"These teachings are enough to be worth the value of one Spirit Talisman."
Sealing Jutsu?
Jiraiya Hearing this, a trace of doubt arose in his heart again.
I am not good at Sealing Jutsu.
What he was good at during his lifetime was Spirit Transformation Technique at the soul level Secret Technique, as well as excellent tactical command and analysis abilities.
In terms of Sealing Jutsu, I haven't done much research at all. At most, I only know a few B-level or C-level Sealing Jutsu.
What he can teach Miko is probably not too powerful or advanced Sealing Jutsu, it may just be some basic sealing principles and common sealing techniques.
However, for a country like Land of Demons that relies on Miko to seal monsters but may be lacking in systematic Ninjutsu inheritance, even basic Sealing Jutsu knowledge may be very valuable.
What's more, the person being taught is Miko, who is only in his early ten years and is destined to take on the important task of sealing monsters in the future.
This "tuition fee" may indeed be enough to offset the value of Spirit Talisman.
But Jiraiya had other ideas in mind.
If conditions permit...
After seeing the break and understanding the situation clearly, I might be able to teach the more advanced Sealing Jutsu, such as Five Elements Seal, to this Miko.
After all, the other party used precious Spirit Talisman to save Konoha's person, so Konoha should give a more generous reward.
Moreover, helping Miko of Land of Demons improve its strength is also equivalent to indirectly maintaining the stability of Shinobi World.
I heard that there is a monster in Land of Demons, but there are very few rumors about the monster. I only know that it was sealed by Miko generation.
And Sealing Jutsu of Miko seems to be different from the regular Sealing Jutsu.
Shinobi World will soon be unified, and the so-called monsters are destined to be eliminated by Naruto. It is always good to have more power.
With this calculation in mind, Jiraiya nodded to Taruho and said nothing more about the compensation issue.
The two continued to move forward.
At the end of the corridor is a heavy wooden door painted with complex patterns of sacred birds and lotus flowers.
Taruho stopped in front of the door, turned around and said to Jiraiya:
"It's right inside. Master Miko and Mr. Katō are both here."
