"Then let's start with Wind Style!"

Hoshita Hide made the decision for Nagato.

Nagato nodded.

Xiaonan quickly asked, "What about me, teacher?"

"Let's do the same with Wind Escape!"

Xingxia Xiu said: "Next, I will teach you the first ninjutsu."

Yahiko and the other two were immediately filled with anticipation.

They had only learned the Three Body Techniques in the Ninja School before, which was too low-level.

The first water-style ninjutsu taught to Yahiko was Water Wave, while the first ninjutsu taught to Nagato and Konan was Fierce Wind Palm.

They are all C-level difficulty.

For Nagato and the other two, they could remember the hand seals after just one try, and the next step was to keep practicing.

The key lies in the change of nature.

In fact, if one possesses this attribute, practicing this kind of ninjutsu will be twice as effective with half the effort, and one can even use the ninjutsu without practicing the nature change at the beginning.

But don't think too much about its power.

The power of a ninjutsu is basically determined by three aspects.

Changes in properties, forms, and chakra amount!

The practice of ninjutsu starts with becoming familiar with hand seals, and then guiding chakra through hand seals.

However, Xingxiaxiu has very high requirements for talents.

After teaching the seals, Xingxia Xiu began to teach the techniques of changing properties.

In order to practice wind escape, Xingxia Xiu directly created a big tree in the cave and let Nagato and Konan play with the leaves.

And Yahiko's water jutsu, Hoshita Hide, brought him to the river.

Time flies and a morning passes quickly.

At noon, Xingxia Xiu did not take the three of them back to the Rain Village for lunch, but instead ate in the wild.

After resting for an hour, the practice continued.

However, Xingxia Xiu first taught the three people the Shadow Clone Technique.

This is an upgraded version of the clone technique, which can create a physical clone.

The reason why Xing Xia Xiu wanted to teach this technique now was to speed up the cultivation of the three people.

Especially Nagato, the Uzumaki clan has a huge amount of chakra in their bodies, it would be a waste if they didn't use it in their clones.

Yahiko and Konan's chakra capacity is far less than Nagato's, but it is still much better than that of their peers. There is no need for multiple shadow clones, but there is no problem in creating one or two shadow clones to increase the speed of training.

Cultivation like nature change requires hard work.

Time flies, and the New Year is approaching in a blink of an eye.

January 37, Konoha 12.

Hoshita Hide received the order to return to Konoha, not only him, but also Jiraiya.

Because just yesterday, Konoha and Iwagakure had reached a preliminary intention for peace talks.

Yesterday, Ohnoki left the front line and returned to Iwagakure Village.

Konoha and Amegakure also officially ceased hostilities with Iwagakure yesterday.

And then, within a month, Konoha's forces will gradually withdraw from the Land of Rain.

After the peace talks, Konoha openly gave up the interests of the Rain Country, except for the offensive and defensive alliance signed with the Rain Village in advance.

Of course, in secret, it was the Root organization established by the Rain Village.

……

"You guys, aren't you planning on going back to Konoha for the New Year?"

Jiraiya looked at Yahiko and the other two who were training hard and asked.

Xingxia Xiu shook his head: "Of course I have to go back, but not now."

"Don't worry, I'm good at space ninjutsu sometimes, so I'll be back soon."

Jiraiya nodded, "I forgot, you're just like Minato."

"But having said that, these three little brats do look pretty good, just like me back then."

Xingxia Xiu didn't hesitate to interject: "I heard that you were the last in school."

Jiraiya didn't care at all and smiled, "I let them do that before."

"Not many of those classmates back then have become Jonin now."

"But... these three little guys don't seem to have anything particularly special about them, right?"

Xing Xiaxiu smiled slightly: "You will know later."

At this moment, Nagato, who was practicing around a tree, stopped, and then his clones disappeared one by one.

Yahiko and Konan immediately stepped forward, followed by cheers.

It was a sunny day today, so Yahiko and the other two practiced by the river.

"It seems like it's been completed!"

Xingxiaxiu chuckled.

Jiraiya was surprised: "So fast?"

"It seems like they graduated just a few days ago?"

Hoshita Hide looked at the three people running over and smiled. "To be precise, from the time Nagato started practicing Wind Style's nature transformation until now... well, exactly four days." "During that time, I taught him the Shadow Clone Technique, and he mastered it in just a few minutes. After that, he mastered the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique in another minute."

Jiraiya's expression changed.

At this time, Yahiko and Konan arrived with Nagato. Yahiko said loudly: "Teacher Xiu, Nagato has completed the training of the wind escape nature change."

Nagato seemed a little embarrassed.

Xing Xiaxiu nodded: "I saw it."

"But it's not done yet."

Yahiko and the other two were stunned.

Xingxia Xiu said: "Using chakra to cut the leaves is only the first stage of training the wind style transformation."

"Next comes the second phase."

Xingxiaxiu jumped down from the tree, then came to an open space on the side, made a Si seal with his hands, and the ground beneath his feet suddenly rose up.

Earth Escape - Earth Current City Wall!

Snapped!
Xing Xiaxiu clasped his palms together again, and water flowed from behind him, rushing down and forming a waterfall.

Then trees began to grow on the wall, connected by vines, forming an aerial corridor.

After landing on the ground, Xingxia Xiu said, "Nagato, go up and use the same method as before. When you can cut the waterfall, it will be considered completed."

Yahiko and Konan couldn't help but open their mouths when they heard this.

Isn't this too difficult?

Jiraiya walked up and said with a smile: "Xiu, your requirements are too high."

"If you cut through the waterfall, the change in wind ninjutsu's nature will already be at the level of a jonin proficient in wind ninjutsu!"

Yahiko and Konan exclaimed in unison, "That's amazing!"

Nagato was a little nervous, afraid that he wouldn't be able to do it.

Jiraiya then asked, "Are you going to teach that technique?"

Three pairs of eyes looked at Xingxiaxiu at the same time.

Xing Xiaxiu shook his head: "Different techniques are suitable for each person."

"The Rasengan suits Minato."

After saying that, he patted Nagato's shoulder and said, "Alright, go practice."

"At the end of today, I will teach a ninjutsu to whoever completes the goal."

"Yahiko, Konan, you better keep working hard!"

Yahiko and Konan nodded in unison, "Yeah!"

The three of them went back to their respective cultivation.

Jiraiya watched, his eyes falling on Nagato who was training with many clones facing the waterfall. "What's so special about this kid? You're so secretive."

Xingxia Xiu smiled and said: "He was born with five, no, Nagato also has a talent for illusion, which means six attributes."

Jiraiya was surprised when he heard this: "What?"

Such people are indeed rare.

Many senior ninjas seem to have mastered a lot of nature changes, but in fact they are not very good at every one of them.

The reason is that we are not born with so many attributes.

Just like Xing Xiaxiu's practice of changing the nature of Fire and Lightning Escape, he achieved half the result with twice the effort.

Wind escape, water escape, earth escape, even if he didn't have the status bar to bless him, it was easy to practice them.

Jiraiya himself is more proficient in fire jutsu and earth jutsu. Wind jutsu and water jutsu are not commonly used ninjutsu. Mastering them is just to prevent oneself from being targeted by the enemy.

He doesn't even know how to use Lightning Escape, and he hasn't practiced changing the nature of Lightning Escape yet.

People like Sarutobi Hiruzen who are born with all five elements of ninjutsu and can use all five types of ninjutsu to perfection are rare in the ninja world.

"It seems that when we go back, Minato will have to work harder, otherwise he will be outdone by Nagato."

Jiraiya suddenly laughed.

Xingxia Xiu had an idea and said with a smile: "Let Nagato and Minato spar when there's a chance."

Jiraiya immediately came up with an idea: "How about we make a bet?"

Xing Xiaxiu raised an eyebrow: "How to bet?"

Jiraiya smiled and said, "Of course, it's a bet on who will win between Nagato and Minato!"

Hoshita Hide sneered: "Nagato is just training, but Minato is already a Chunin!"

Jiraiya was very shameless: "Nagato has improved so quickly, don't you have confidence as a teacher?"

Xing Xiaxiu said: "Of course I have confidence."

"But what are you betting on?"

"Ten million taels?"

Jiraiya was shocked: "Isn't this too much?"
