Ten minutes later, Jiraiya took Senju Chen to an open space outside Konoha.
"Ready?"
"Hmm."
"Reverse Summoning Technique!"
White smoke exploded.
The scenery is distorted.
A few seconds later, the two appeared at Mount Myōboku.
Huge mushroom-shaped buildings, floating stones, and strange-shaped plants are everywhere.
The air is filled with the smell of water vapor and green grass.
Senju Chen looked around, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
Here we go again.
"Hey, Little Jiraiya you're here again!"
A familiar rough voice sounded from the side.
Gamabunta jumped out from behind a boulder with a pipe in his mouth.
"Brother Gamabunta!" Jiraiya greeted with a smile.
Gamabunta's eyes fell on Senju Chen and he frowned.
"This kid... why does it feel different from last time?"
Senju Chen's heart skipped a beat.
The perception of Gamabunta is indeed not weak. Last time it was the main body, and this time it is Puppet Clone. Although the appearance is exactly the same, there are some differences in the breath.
However, Gamabunta can't tell exactly what the difference is, I just feel that there "seems" to be a little different.
"Let's go." Jiraiya patted Senju Chen on the shoulder, "I'll take you to see Sage Fukasaku first."
The two of them walked along the plain towards Qian.
Not far away, Senju Chen suddenly heard a deafening sound.
"Senju Clan boy!!! You are finally here!!!"
Senju Chen turned around and looked.
Gamahiro jumped over from the pond.
Ridiculously fast.
A huge, dark green Toad jumped in front of Senju Chen at a speed that violated the laws of physics, causing the surrounding gravel to bounce when it landed.
"Senior Hiro." Senju Chen greeted.
Gamahiro's two big eyes stared intently at the cloth bag in Senju Chen's hand.
To be precise, he was staring at the corners of the bamboo slips that were faintly revealed in the cloth bag.
"That... is that..."
"Yes." Senju Chen lifted the cloth bag, "The Water Release Ninjutsu scroll that I promised to my senior last time is my second grandfather's scroll. I brought a total of three scrolls this time."
Gamahiro The whole Toad is shaking.
Its mouth opened and closed, closed and opened again, as if it wanted to say a hundred words but couldn't squeeze out a single one.
Jiraiya stood nearby, watching this scene with a complicated expression.
In his entire life, he has never seen Gamahiro be so enthusiastic towards anyone.
Including himself.
"Senju Clan boy!!!" Gamahiro hugged Senju Chen, complete with a cloth bag, into his arms.
Senju Chen was trapped in the arms of Gamahiro, making it difficult to breathe.
"Guang...Senior Hiro... a little tight..."
"You are the best human being I have ever seen!!! Don't worry, if you are in danger outside in the future, just call me. Even if you want to hit Little Jiraiya, I will definitely support you!!!" Gamahiro was so excited that his voice broke.
Jiraiya stood nearby, the corner of his mouth twitching.
I have been working in Mount Myōboku for decades. Can you avoid me for a while when you say this?
After Gamahiro released Senju Chen, he eagerly took the cloth bag and carefully unbuttoned the cloth with two thick fingers.
The first scroll of bamboo slips is unfolded-"Water and Sky as One Azure".
Gamahiro's pupils dilated.
"Is this... condensed water? Creating a sea of mirrors out of thin air?"
"Yes." Senju Chen explained, "This is an experimental Ninjutsu developed by my second grandfather in the early years. It consumes too much Chakra and cannot be used by ordinary ninjas. But with the Chakra amount of Senior Hiro..."
Gamahiro is already drooling.
It's not greedy. It's excitement.
It unfolds the second volume - "Water Formation Wall" improved version.
Then expand the third volume - "Great Waterfall Technique" advanced experience.
Gamahiro held three rolls of Ninjutsu, and the whole Toad was trembling.
"Senju Chen ah Senju Chen!!! From now on, you will be my real brother in Mount Myōboku! No, my real brother! If anyone dares to lay a finger on you, I, Gamahiro, will be the first to refuse!"
Senju Chen smiled and nodded.
"Then thank you Senior Hiro."
Jiraiya stood by and was dumbfounded.
Three volumes of Ninjutsu bought Mount Myōboku Water Release the first Toad?
Then should I also learn from Senju Chen and give some gifts in the future?
But I am not as wealthy as Senju Clan...
Sage Fukasaku's residence.
Senju Chen followed Jiraiya into the hut.
Fukasaku and Shima and Toad Sage are drinking tea.
"Little Jiraiya, here again?" Sage Fukasaku asked with a smile.
"Well, bring Little Chen--"
Before Jiraiya finished speaking, Sage Fukasaku's eyes had already fallen on Senju Chen.
Those old eyes suddenly became sharp.
He stared at Senju Chen for three seconds.
Then put down the tea cup.
"Little Jiraiya." Sage Fukasaku's voice suddenly became serious.
"Huh?"
"You go out first."
Jiraiya was stunned for a moment.
Sage Fukasaku rarely speaks in this tone.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing serious. I'll have a little chat with this kid alone."
Jiraiya looked at Senju Chen, then at Sage Fukasaku, and finally nodded.
"Okay."
He walked out of the door and closed it smoothly.
There are only three people Sage Fukasaku, Sage Shima and Senju Chen left in the room.
Sage Fukasaku held the tea cup and smiled at Senju Chen.
"Boy, this time you come here is different from the last time."
Senju Chen felt nervous.
Sure enough.
Sage Fukasaku has lived for hundreds of years. Although it is not as good as Great Toad Sage, its perception is definitely far superior to that of ordinary Toad.
Last time it was the main body, this time it was Puppet Clone. Sage Fukasaku probably saw something.
Senju Chen was silent for two seconds.
"Sage Fukasaku really has a keen eye."
He raised his head and did not continue to hide it.
"My body... is not the original body. It is Puppet Clone."
Sage Shima put down the needle and thread in his hand and turned his head to look over.
Sage Fukasaku was not surprised, he just nodded.
"Let me tell you. Although the Chakra in your body is the same as last time, the breath of life is wrong. There is still a difference between the body of a living person and the body of a puppet in front of us old guys who have lived for hundreds of years."
Senju Chen nodded.
"But-" Sage Fukasaku frowned, "Your puppet... its material is very special."
He moved closer, his nose twitching slightly, as if he was smelling something.
"Is there the vitality of Tailed Beast in this?"
Senju Chen didn't say anything, but he didn't deny it either.
Sage Fukasaku took a deep breath.
"You kid... you are not timid."
He sat back and was silent for a while.
"Using a puppet to Mount Myōboku is because I want to use the puppet to practice Sage Mode secretly."
Senju Chen nodded directly.
"Yes. Sage Fukasaku. However, this puppet of mine can survive for a long time, and its consciousness can operate independently, just like ordinary people. So I would like to ask Sage Fukasaku to allow me to stay in Mount Myōboku and use this puppet to try to practice."
Sage Fukasaku and Sage Shima looked at each other.
"This matter... I need Great Toad Sage to nod." Sage Fukasaku said, "Let's go, I'll take you to see him."
