Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

"what?"

"Naruto needs to be trained."

"Alright! Let's get started!"

Naruto Uzumaki's special training is about to officially begin!!!

Chapter 322: Jiraiya

"will!"

Naruto's eyes widened as he stared at the water ball in his hand, channeling his chakra into it.

As the chakra gradually flowed towards the water sphere, the water inside began to surge wildly, with jets of water seemingly about to burst the sphere, dancing and thrashing about.

boom.

With a sound like a bomb suddenly exploding, the water sphere exploded, spraying ink directly onto Naruto's face, instantly turning his face black.

"Damn it, I failed again."

"Haha, Naruto, your face has darkened again."

Tsukiki was quietly fishing on the side when she saw Naruto's appearance and burst out laughing, scaring away the fish that were about to take the bait.

"Next time, next time we'll definitely succeed."

Naruto wiped his face with his wrist, leaving his face covered in black smear.

"You lasted a little longer than before, which is already pretty good."

Minato walked over, tossed Naruto a towel, and then threw him a bottle of drink.

"Damn it, not yet. Sasuke is working hard right now where I can't see him."

"Take a short rest; balancing work and rest is of utmost importance."

Minato delivered a chop to Naruto's head.

"How about we go soak in a hot spring together after so long? There's a hot spring street nearby, let's go together, Minato's treating."

"Huh? Why am I paying?"

"but?"

"Let's go, together."

Tsukiki looked over, and Naruto met her gaze, but was forced to submit to Tsukiki's stare.

"Ok."

Naruto scratched his head and reluctantly agreed.

For some reason, Naruto always seems unable to handle Tsuki, and he always inexplicably gives in when he looks at Tsuki, even though Kushina doesn't give in so easily.

Minato looked at Naruto and Tsuki and sighed.

"I guess I'll have to treat everyone."

"Let's go."

"That's wonderful, it has to be the best hot spring."

Yue Shu laughed, put away her fishing rod, and prepared to set off.

"You."

Minato shook his head helplessly.

"Alright, let's go."

With a thud, the three stopped their training and headed towards the nearby hot springs.

"This feels so good."

Tsukiki sighed as she soaked in the hot spring.

"It's been a long time. You've been very busy since becoming Hokage."

Water Gate was also leaning to one side, looking quite comfortable.

"I don't have much time to go to hot springs anymore, and I don't have anyone to go with anyway."

As Minato spoke, Naruto, who was standing to the side, was already limp, having relieved much of the hardship and fatigue of training during this period.

"Spiral pills!"

boom!

The familiar chakra fluctuations reached him, and Minato immediately opened his eyes and prepared himself.

"It looks like something flew up."

Naruto looked up and saw a figure swaying as it flew up.

"It seems somewhat familiar."

"I vaguely remember what you said."

Minato and Tsukiki both spoke up when they saw the figure.

"Ninja Art: Chakra Thread Binding"

Strands of chakra converged into solid lines that stretched towards the figure in the air.

"Wait for the little girl."

The figure in the air, now bound, began to make noise, and Minato realized what was happening.

"Jiraiya-sensei?"

"You disgusting pervert! You stinking old man!"

"Ying?"

Minato could only say what a coincidence that his only relative—his sister Ying—had just finished her mission and was soaking in the hot springs here.

As for Jiraiya, he probably just happened to run into Hotaru while spying on her on his way back.

"Ying, it's me. Please have mercy."

Jiraiya began to beg for mercy.

"Of course I know, that old geezer is a pervert."

With a look of utter disdain, Ying knew exactly what kind of person this teacher of her brother was after all these years.

"Ying!?"

"Sister Ying."

All three of them stared at the scene with utter bewilderment.

"Oh! Minato and Tsukiki! Please save me!"

"Ok?"

Ying glanced over, and the three of them immediately turned their heads away, whistling as if they hadn't seen anything.

Down with the voyeur.

The protests from the girls' side came through.

One by one, buckets, bowls, ladles, and ladles were thrown over.

"That's what it was said."

Ying turned to look at Jiraiya, her eyes radiating murderous intent.

"Wait, have mercy, Ying!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Minato and Tsukiki turned their heads away, pretending not to see.

Despite being the prestigious Fourth Hokage, Minato was still at odds with Hotaru at home.

In short, that was it; the hot spring break ended with Jiraiya's screams.

"That's too much, Ying. It's in so much pain now."

"I'll be even tougher next time, don't worry."

Ying showed no mercy either.

"So, you're training him, aren't you? That brat."

"I'm not some brat."

"The Chunin Exams are coming up soon, so we'll do some training. But it would be perfect if you could come, Jiraiya-sensei."

"Hey?"

"Let me also teach Naruto a bit. I've been quite busy with the Hokage's work lately, since the Chunin Exams are coming up soon."

Minato scratched his head and laughed.

"what?"

Jiraiya and Naruto both became puzzled.

"Speaking of which, I forgot to tell you, Naruto. Jiraiya-sensei is my teacher, and he's also the Third Hokage's disciple."

"Huh? This lecherous old man?"

"A lecherous old man?"

Jiraiya immediately became unhappy.

"Spiritual communication."

As the smoke billowed out, obscuring their vision, everyone except Naruto sighed, already knowing what had happened.

"I am the hermit of Mount Myōboku, the Toad Hermit."

A toad popped out, and Jiraiya sat on it, striking a pose that was quite stylish.

"So handsome."
