Naruto: Learn the Substitution Jutsu and use it to create Star Platinum?

"Over there! One has white hair and the other has blond hair!"

……

Only after the two had finally escaped did Jiraiya speak as if nothing had happened.

"Get materials, get materials."

Minato shook his head helplessly. No wonder Naruto called Jiraiya-sensei the perverted sage.

"Shouldn't you be on a mission right now? Why are you back? You've only been gone a short while."

"I came back specifically to find you, Jiraiya-sensei."

"Looking for me?" Jiraiya asked, somewhat puzzled.

Could it be that they've encountered some kind of trouble that even the water gate can't handle?

"There is a child... who wants to see you."

Minato was about to say "child," but then realized that Naruto was already fifteen or sixteen years old, so he didn't really count as a child anymore, and changed his mind.

"See me? You, Minato, have to come in person? In Loulan..." Jiraiya stroked his chin, "Could it be that the Queen of Loulan admires my name, Lord Jiraiya?"

Namikaze Minato:......

"No, he is a ninja, a ninja from the future."

To prevent Jiraiya from making further guesses, Minato decided to stop being the riddle solver.

"A ninja of the future?" Jiraiya laughed. "I didn't expect Minato to have such a good sense of humor."

But then, Jiraiya's smile gradually faded and finally disappeared. This was because Minato Namikaze wasn't joking at all; his expression remained serious throughout.

"Is he really a ninja from the future?"

"Yes, and it's my child."

"What?!"

……

"Wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big!"

On a flat area outside Loulan, smoke and dust mingled with sand and dirt.

In the arena, the three little ones and Naruto are struggling to fight against Lin Yi's shadow clone, the Substitute World.

Meanwhile, Lin Yi's main body was communicating with Yamato about Wood Release on the other side.

That's right, it was actually inspired by Naruto.

The core of Naruto's tactics is Shadow Clone Jutsu and Rasengan.

This also drew Lin Yi's attention to this ninjutsu that he had never valued.

After all, he was always short of chakra, and shadow clones could easily divide into countless amounts of chakra, which was beyond his means.

Besides, his clones were no match for his substitutes, so he only used shadow clones to skip a few classes during his time at the Ninja Academy, and hardly ever used them after that.

This was also a sudden whim of his.

It is known that the source of the substitute is his unique chakra.

Shadow clones are also made of chakra, so can my shadow clones use substitutes?

After all, you can say that Lin Yi can't burn other chakra, such as that of a tailed beast, and you can't accept it, but this is my own chakra.

As it turned out, it worked.

But it wasn't fully completed.

It's done. Naturally, the shadow clone can indeed use a substitute. The substitute will also consume the chakra that created the shadow clone. When the shadow clone is broken up, the substitute will also disappear.

However, no matter how many clones there are.

He can still only use one stand-in.

It's somewhat similar to how Killer Queen released Bites the Dust, and then the Stand was transferred to Hayato.

The same applies to Lin Yi. Once his shadow clone uses a substitute, he cannot use one. When he uses a substitute, his shadow clone cannot use one, but the switching between them can be instantaneous, regardless of distance.

In short, it's impossible to summon multiple substitute cards simultaneously using this bug.

Even so, it greatly enhances flexibility.

If my shadow clone is 10 meters away from me, and I then summon Star Platinum, wouldn't that be enough to stun you from 12 meters away?

Alternatively, you can prepare a shadow clone before the battle and set it aside. When the crucial moment arrives, the shadow clone can use time stop, so that you can use time stop without losing your form.

perfect.

Moreover, this idea gave Lin Yi a new inspiration.

That is, is there a way to store chakra for a long time, since the duration of shadow clones is limited?

If he could have a power bank, he would undoubtedly evolve into a T0-level device…

Uchiha Lin Yi [has no shortage of chakra].

"Brother Lin Yi, slow down, please slow down."

Naruto, panting heavily from the beating, raised his hand and spoke to Lin Yiying's clone, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground.

The shadow clone opened its eyes, nodded, and snapped its fingers.

The world slowed down slightly, giving the three little ones and Naruto more time to catch their breath.

The next second, a golden light appeared.

Minato has returned to Loulan with Jiraiya.

The sudden appearance of the two immediately attracted the attention of several people.

After Naruto saw who it was, he opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.

He stood frozen in place.

"what!"

The world retracted the back of its blade, its sharp eyes fixed on Naruto, who had fallen face-first to the ground.

"Mu Da."

Chapter 50 Master and Disciple

Naruto immediately got up from the ground and patted his butt.

He stared intently at that familiar yet unfamiliar figure.

The familiarity stems from the resemblance in expression and the subtle traces around the eyes to Jiraiya's later appearance. The unfamiliarity arises from Jiraiya's youthful face and attire, so different from his later, more mature demeanor.

So this is what the lecherous immortal looked like in his youth?

Jiraiya was also looking at Naruto Uzumaki not far away.

It does have some resemblance to Minato, but it looks rather silly.

Lin Yi and the others quietly cleared out a space for them to train elsewhere.

"Are you... the Lustful Immortal?"

Naruto tried his best to control his tone and expression. He tried not to let his eyes redden and his voice tremble.

After all, Jiraiya didn't know him at all at this point, and if it were too exaggerated, it would definitely scare him.

"What perverted sage..." Jiraiya was speechless. "He's the toad sage, or call me Jiraiya-sama, one of the legendary Sannin. What an impolite guy."

"But you're clearly a pervert." Naruto pouted, unconvinced.

He still remembered when he was a child, Jiraiya took him to train and warned him about the three prohibitions of ninjas.

Wine, women, and money.

They said that once a ninja gets involved with these things, he's doomed.

But he had a feeling that once he got involved with these things, he wouldn't be far from becoming one of the Three Ninja.

"Alright, kid, I've taken precious time out of my research period to come here. So, what do you want from me?"

Jiraiya gently tapped Naruto's head.

Then he and Naruto walked together on the streets of Loulan.

After Centipede was imprisoned by Lin Yi, the Queen also freed the people who were originally imprisoned in the puppet factory to make puppets.

The streets are gradually coming back to life.

Naruto opened his mouth and clenched his fists. He had a lot to say, but he didn't know how to start.

"Perverted Sage, do you know I'm a ninja from the future?"

Jiraiya's eyes glanced at a beautiful woman from Loulan, a place of exotic beauty, and his previously sleepy eyes immediately brightened.

"Lustful fairy!"

Naruto Uzumaki stomped his foot. What time is it?

"Well, so what if I know?" Jiraiya clicked his tongue and waved his hand dismissively.

"Then, don't you want to know about your future? Even if it's just something like parallel universes that Brother Lin Yi mentioned, it's still very useful for reference."

Naruto Uzumaki was getting a little frantic.

When Obito and the others found out they were time travelers, they wanted to dig up every single detail, but Jiraiya didn't care at all.

"Well…"

Under Naruto's expectant gaze, Jiraiya looked at him and replied, "I don't want to."

He can travel and teach in order to make prophecies, but that is not the same as knowing one's own fate directly.

"If we knew the future, what would be the point of life? The point of living is to create our own future!"

"But, but..." Naruto Uzumaki jumped up and down in a panic.

Your future will be bad.

Before Naruto could finish even half of the word "death," Jiraiya covered Naruto's mouth.
