Soon, Jiraiya found Naruto, who was buying ingredients on the street.
He was dressed in casual clothes with golden bangs hanging down to his eyes. His blue eyes were clear and pure, and his dead black-rimmed glasses did not restrict his attractiveness. Instead, it added a bit of elegance to Naruto.
"Minato," Jiraiya muttered to himself, and his eyes could not help but become a little moist.
But he quickly came back to his senses.
Minato had already died in battle on Kyubi's night, and what he saw was Minato's son, Uzumaki Naruto.
Jiraiya had once learned about Naruto's childhood in detail.
It was full of darkness and malice.
It's hard to imagine how a child who has no strength can survive.
He had once put himself in the shoes of others but found that in that kind of environment, even with his carefree personality, it was difficult to keep optimistic.
It was commendable.
Naruto was the same as Minato, gentle and refined, the little sun in everyone's eyes.
No.
To be precise.
The light in the dark was the most precious.
In order to gain everyone's approval, Naruto must have put in a lot of effort.
Jiraiya couldn't help but feel a little distressed. He calmed down and observed Naruto's every move.
At this moment, Naruto came to the door of the shop and gently greeted Aunt Yamanaka. However, he told her his purpose.
"Aunt Yamanaka, I want to buy some vegetables, radishes, and some pork. I'm going to cook some pork and radish soup tonight."
"Naruto, long time no see. You have returned to the village!" When she saw Naruto, Aunt Yamanaka immediately revealed a simple and honest smile and said.
"Yes, the commission this time is a bit long. I rushed back as soon as the commission is over."
"It's been hard outside. It's still the most comfortable home." Aunt Yamanaka chatted while putting the ingredients that Naruto needed to buy into the bag, and also put a small ball of vegetables.
"Aunt Yamanaka, that's enough. I won't be finished if you continue to stuff me." Naruto smiled and refused.
"How can it be enough? You are growing your body now. You have to eat more."
After a round of pushing and fighting, Naruto took the bulging shopping bags and politely bid farewell to Aunt Yamanaka.
Walking down the long street, he greeted many friendly villagers along the way.
These villagers were almost the parents of their classmates.
After entering Ninja school, many of the parents of the students had a more direct understanding of Naruto's talent and character, so they did not object to their children interacting with Naruto.
In the six years of learning, Naruto quickly became friends with these students, and at the same time, he also received the recognition of his parents.
After walking for about ten minutes, Naruto arrived at the empty training ground. He placed the shopping bags beside the big tree and shouted at the empty training ground, "You've been following me for so long. Come out."
"I was actually exposed" Jiraiya, who had been puzzled by Naruto not coming home, was shocked.
All these years, he had been wandering outside of Konoha to scout for information, and his skills in hiding had been practiced to perfection.
It was not an exaggeration to say that he could hide in the bathhouse for three days and three nights without being discovered.
Although there was a slight negligence in tracking this time, it was detected by Genin.
It seemed that Naruto was as the intelligence said, his strength was close to Jonin, but his perception had reached Jonin and even surpassed Jonin.
"You're asking me who I am?"
"Listen up!"
Jiraiya jumped out of his hiding place and stood on a tall rock, his expression excited.
"Toad Immortal is just hiding his name from the world. I can do everything easily, the whole world in the south, east, and north." Jiraya also shook his flowing white hair violently.
"One of the unrivaled Sannin... The white-haired boy Toad, the one who can instantly shut up a crying child and intoxicate a beautiful young woman, Jiraiya-sama!
"Yes, yes!"
Pa.
Jiraiya turned a circle, and the wooden clog left a crisp sound on the rock.
"So you are one of the Sannin, Jiraiya." Naruto maintained his smile.
"Yes, it is me!" Jiraiya raised his head.
"Oh, nice to meet you. I'm going back to cook. Goodbye." Naruto nodded, picked up the shopping bag, and turned to leave.
"Wait a minute" Jiraiya suddenly broke his balance and jumped off the rock in a hurry, following behind Naruto.
"Aren't you curious? Why did the famous Sannin appear in Konoha and follow you?" Jiraiya followed behind Naruto unwillingly, his wooden clogs clattering.
"Not curious." Naruto maintained his pace. "You followed me just to see how Kyubi's Jinchuriki are doing in the village. Is it the same as what others say?"
"Uh, that is indeed the case." Jiraiya followed closely behind and rubbed his chin as if he was thinking about what to say next.
"I didn't expect Jiraiya to return to the village. It seems that Sandaime wants him to be your Sensei, Naruto," Minato said in the sealed space.
Although Jiraiya as a Sensei looks unreliable and very lustful, they still have many secret arts. Among them, Senjutsu is the strongest.
Naruto, you can learn from Jiraiya Sensei. After mastering the Kuchiyose no Jutsu, you can enter Mount Myōboku to cultivate Senjutsu. I think that place is a good place to cultivate Reiatsu. Minato muttered.
Naruto stopped in his tracks. Jiraiya, who was deep in thought, was caught off guard. His chest hit Naruto's back, and then he rubbed his chest in pain.
"Is this kind of person really a Sannin?" No matter how refined Naruto was, he could not maintain the smile on his face at this moment.
He watched the old boy Jiraiya also play crazy tricks in the black lines, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
"I said." He sighed helplessly. "Don't follow me. I'm very busy."
"Ahem, actually." Jiraiya put away his funny expression and was a little embarrassed.
"Actually, I heard that you are Kakashi's disciple, right?"
"Yeah." Naruto snorted.
"What a coincidence. Do you know who my disciple is?"
Jiraiya said to himself, "My disciple is Kakashi's Sensei, Namikaze Minato. So in name, I should be yours." After going around, Jiraiya was about to faint.
Maybe it was because of guilt, but when facing Naruto, Jiraiya always felt a little unnatural.
He looked at Naruto.
He found that Naruto was looking at him with a playful look. "So you want to teach me Ninjutsu?"
"That's right!" Jiraiya nodded vigorously and then changed his words. "To be exact, I can accept your request to learn Ninjutsu."
"Oh, no need. I am fine now." Naruto regained his gentle smile and turned to leave.
"Don't go, wait a minute!" Jiraiya twisted his butt and followed behind, his heart extremely anxious.
Didn't they say that Naruto was Little Sun?
Why his personality so bad?
