Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

"Fukasaku!"

"Good."

The black-haired girl was carried away by a small object, and only then did Minato Namikaze get a clear look at the person in front of him.

That familiar voice, that white-haired figure.

"Jiraiya-sensei?"

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Minato."

Jiraiya turned to look at Minato Namikaze and gave him a smile.

However, Minato's appearance immediately sharpened Jiraiya's eyes.

No teacher would remain indifferent to their student being injured like this.

"interesting."

Fukasaku led Mikoto to Minato Namikaze's side, and then back to Jiraiya's shoulder.

"Honey, hurry up and get that Watergate kid treated."

There was another toad on Jiraiya's other shoulder, and before Fukasaku could finish speaking, it had already begun treating Minato Namikaze.

With their powerful sage techniques, they naturally had ways to heal others, but Minato Namikaze's injuries were too severe, and Shima's eyes were filled with seriousness.

"How dare a mere monkey hurt me."

Otsutsuki patted his somewhat dusty body and revealed an interested smile.

"This power is very interesting."

"Immortal Technique, Toad Oil Bomb."

Jiraiya didn't waste any more words with him; his anger had already caused his hands to form hand seals.

The oil bomb, imbued with natural energy, flew out of its mouth and headed directly towards the Otsutsuki.

Otsutsuki showed no sign of panic, standing there calmly before extending his palm.

"Eye?"

Jiraiya could see it very clearly, especially since his physical functions were enhanced in Sage Mode.

The man opposite him had an eye in the palm of his hand.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in his palm, and an eye popped out.

"Fire Release: Ash Burning Technique".

Jiraiya exhaled a burst of sparking smoke, instantly igniting the oil bomb. A massive fireball roared towards the Otsutsuki clan.

Jiraiya stopped what he was doing and looked at the other side.

The fuel bomb, trailing raging flames, crashed into the man.

The next second, the fireball struck the palm of the Otsutsuki, and flames began to slowly erupt, with the trail of flames growing larger.

but--

The fireball didn't move an inch; it seemed to be frozen in place.

"really!"

"It's absolutely delicious! This power!"

A wild laugh escaped from the fire, and Jiraiya's brows slowly furrowed.

The next moment, the fireball seemed to be sucked away, slowly spinning and disappearing, and the figure of the Otsutsuki slowly appeared.

"You're really good."

"It actually absorbed—natural energy?"

Fukasaku, perched on Jiraiya's shoulder, seemed somewhat incredulous.

Fukasaku is arguably more familiar with natural energy than most living beings.

Aside from the immortals of the three holy lands, he was the one who understood this thing best.

Even the slightest carelessness could turn someone to stone, yet the other party absorbed such a vast amount of natural energy with such ease.

"This is not a good sign."

Jiraiya gave a wry smile; he naturally understood just how bad the situation was.

Sage Mode is his last trump card.

"Let's continue."

Otsutsuki licked his lips, signaling Jiraiya to get ready immediately.

"If ninjutsu is useless, then..."

"Physical skills!"

Jiraiya charged straight in.

"Fukasaku."

"Good."

"Celestial Art: Frog Croak!"

Fukasaku jumped directly off Jiraiya's shoulder, and a toad actually formed hand seals on its own to release a ninjutsu.

"The secret to your absorption of ninjutsu lies in that eye, right?"

Jiraiya threw out several kunai.

Otsutsuki looked at the two of them without the slightest sign of panic.

"Earth Release: Mud Swamp".

Jiraiya formed hand seals but didn't stop running.

The moment the hand seal was completed, the position of the foot touched changed slightly.

Then the area in front of Jiraiya began to turn into a swamp, and he kept sinking down.

At the same time, Fukasaku's croaking began to come. If Otsutsuki absorbed it, he would not have a free hand to block the kunai, which were tied with explosive tags.

In addition, the Mud Swamp ninjutsu trapped Otsutsuki's feet.

This is Jiraiya's combat experience—his reputation as a madman and one of the Legendary Sannin…

Jiraiya leaped into the air, and the Otsutsuki in front of him showed no change in expression, calmly raising his hand.

"Return to Heaven!"

"what?"

Jiraiya was watching from the air, which is why he was so surprised.

The Rejuvenation Technique is one of the Hyuga clan's secret techniques, and coupled with those Byakugan eyes, Jiraiya could even determine that the other person was a member of the Hyuga clan.

But that's not right!

The Hyuga clan would never have someone like that.

Jiraiya had a good relationship with the Hyuga clan, which is why he dared to say such things.

So—who exactly was the one who pulled off the miraculous comeback over there?

"Sage Art: Lightning Release, Heavy Stream Burst!"

Jiraiya flew over, his hand clenched into a fist, crackling with electric current.

The fist flew out, a desperate counterattack.

However, there was nothing he could do. Jiraiya could sense that he was no match for him, so he retreated.

"It's troublesome."

Jiraiya retreated to Minato's side and muttered something.

The opponent's strength was not to be underestimated. Jiraiya, being a Kage-level shinobi, could better appreciate such power.

A taijutsu with absolute defense is useless against ninjutsu, and Jiraiya wasn't good at genjutsu either; at best, he was only good at breaking genjutsu.

It was almost a complete suppression.

Jiraiya's chances of winning are extremely low.

"Jiraiya, that guy."

"Yes, but I can confirm that it's not from the Hyuga clan."

Fukasaku returned to Jiraiya's shoulder.

“The child’s father, Jiraiya, this child’s injuries are very serious. I’m afraid my efforts alone won’t be enough.”

Shima behind him began to speak. Jiraiya glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and saw that Minato Namikaze hadn't fainted yet. His willpower was undeniably strong.

"What's the danger period like?"

"It's temporarily over, but if we don't act quickly, there might be some long-term effects. We need to have it checked out properly."

Shima stopped what she was doing and looked at Jiraiya.

Jiraiya fell silent, and the Otsutsuki in front of him also stopped his resurrection.

"Is there anyone else in this town?"

"It's a pity, Jiraiya, that most of them are probably already—"

Fukasaku shook his head.

Jiraiya's breathing became much heavier.

He knew that too.

He felt it from the moment he arrived here.

An overwhelming stench of blood emanated from each room.

The overwhelming resentment caused the temperature here to drop significantly.
