Whether the ninja world is in chaos or not, I, Naruto, have the final say

Even if you don't practice magic, a calm state of mind can be of great benefit to you; at least when you are fighting, you can calm down and exert at least 100% of your strength.

He ignored the wailing of the shadow clones.

Naruto left the house, took a leaf and put it in his mouth, then spit it out after a few seconds.

The whole leaf has been evenly divided into two halves!

Five days ago, he had completed the practice of cutting leaves.

But the white-haired old man couldn't be found anywhere, so Naruto was bored and had to make it harder for himself: using his hands, cheeks, soles of his feet, armpits...

Now, even if he puts a leaf in his mouth, he can easily cut it in half. This is the result of his practice.

(Although I know the next step is to cut the waterfall, but...why is it to cut the waterfall? Isn't it a bit too abstract?)

(According to common sense, shouldn’t we change from leaves to bark, wood chips, stone chips, iron chips, steel chips…)

(It makes sense to cut harder and tougher things!)

Think about it in your mind and do it when you say it!

Breaking off a piece of bark, Naruto covered the bark with both hands and began to practice his energy, turning chakra into thin slices and cutting -

"Guards, the evil vortex imps are destroying the trees on the street. Are you really not going to do anything about it?"

The villagers of Konoha began to complain.

The Konoha Guards looked over and immediately understood that Uzumaki Naruto was practicing the changes in chakra attributes...

There was a pile of cut bark scattered on the ground.

The trunk of this tree is almost bald.

"You've practiced to this point, you're worthy of being the ninth..."

"Forget it, it's none of my business."

As usual, the guards turned a blind eye.

Until the day of practicing immortal arts, Jiraiya returned to the village.

Konoha Village was as usual.

When he walked to the street where Naruto lived, he suddenly found that the tree trunks on the entire street had become bare...

The hatred in the villagers' eyes deepened as they looked towards Naruto's house.

"What did this kid do again?"

The increasingly sharp conflict between the villagers and the Jinchūriki gave Jiraiya a headache.

Naruto, who grew up in such an environment, has a hammer and the will of fire... Is he really the child of prophecy?

Wait until Naruto is found.

His room was covered with cuts of bark!

"White-haired Lao Deng, where have you been these days?"

He clenched his hands and circulated his chakra.

The leaves are perfectly divided in half.

"You gave me a training mission, and I have completed it."

"Hurry up and teach me the next stage!"

Jiraiya picked up the leaf and examined it.

The cut is incredibly smooth.

"Two months earlier than I expected."

Jiraiya did not mention where he was going this week, and changed the subject: "Come on, come on, it's time to practice fairy arts with my master today!"

Chapter 25: Jiraiya Should Leave the Village

For Naruto, practicing fairy arts = getting beaten with a stick.

The weekly training of immortal arts is almost the same as the punishment.

Jiraiya was bored staying in Myoboku Mountain, so he just started practicing with Naruto, which greatly improved his own fairy arts level.

In sage mode, he is becoming more and more like a human being.

After finishing his training in senjutsu, Naruto had no intention of resting at all, and he immediately started the next stage of chakra property changes the next day.

"You have wind-attribute chakra. As for the power, it's enough to be able to cut through leaves. If you want to become stronger, simple wind-style ninjutsu can do it."

"You are just crazy if you insist on cutting it."

This was Jiraiya's comment on Naruto's efforts this week.

Then he brought Naruto to the waterfall.

This waterfall was created by Jiraiya using ninjutsu so that Naruto could practice treading water, and it has now become one of the scenery of Konoha.

Of course, for now, it is still the private training place for the master and disciple.

"This stage of training is about cutting the turbulent waterfall horizontally!"

"This step of training is no longer about pursuing power, but about training your chakra to be stable and continuous. You should know what I am talking about."

Jiraiya formed seals and used earth escape.

A bridge without railings was built in front of the waterfall.

"Look carefully, just like the teacher -"

"drink!"

He placed his hands on the waterfall and his chakra suddenly burst out!

Starting from Jiraiya's palm, the several-meter-wide waterfall was split into two halves!

The water above accumulated more and more, until after a few seconds it overwhelmed the chakra barrier and rushed down.

"Great!"

Unlike the anime, only by experiencing it in person can Naruto feel how powerful this skill of cutting a waterfall is!

After the demonstration, Naruto began to practice.

Every time he released his chakra, the waterfall would be dented significantly.

That's the effect of more than 200 points of chakra quality!

Apart from this point, the results are average.

"You practice slowly, I'll leave first." Seeing this, Jiraiya wanted to leave.

"Where are you going?" Naruto asked hurriedly.

"Let's go out of the village and collect materials." Jiraiya's face showed an adult smile: "Konoha is too boring, there are no young girls outside who are interesting enough..."

Naruto: “…”

Now I know why you went out.

It's really hard for you to hold it in for me for half a year.

And so, another four months passed.

Nothing unexpected happened during these four months. Naruto relied on teasing the Nine-Tails and practicing fairy arts to receive rewards from the system:

Music +600, Bloodline Potential +160, Chakra Quality +104, Chakra Amount +60

Before he knew it, Naruto had already reached his fourth birthday.

However, during these days, Jiraiya often went out of the village and came back less and less often. In the end, he would only return to the village on the days when he practiced fairy arts.

Today is exactly one year since the two met.

Naruto, who was already four years old, stood on the earth escape bridge. He stretched his hands into the cascading waterfall, and his chakra rushed in violently.

"drink!"

The waterfall has changed.

With Naruto's hands as the center, the several-meter-wide waterfall was split into two!

It lasted for several seconds before slowly falling back.

Standing on the bridge, Naruto gave a thumbs up.

He asked: "How?"

Beside the bridge, Jiraiya smiled proudly: "You are worthy of being my disciple."

Naruto raised his lips: "It's not over yet."

After saying that, he jumped off the earth escape bridge, grabbed a piece of bark directly, and placed it on the palm of his hand.

Put your hands together, and chakra cuts down fiercely——

"Break!"

There wasn't even a crisp sound.

When Naruto opened his hands, the bark had been completely split into two.

"You really plan to go down this road." Seeing Naruto easily cut the bark, Jiraiya seemed to have guessed Naruto's thoughts.

"But it's a way anyway."

"The extreme change of nature may one day become a secret technique, or even a bloodline limit."

Naruto glared at him: "It's because you don't want to teach me ninjutsu."

Jiraiya chuckled, as if he didn't take Naruto's words to heart.

Then, he whispered, "It is the consensus of Konoha ninjas not to let children master powerful ninjutsu. Besides, this is not the Warring States Period, and there is no need for children to go to the battlefield and fight."

He added in his mind: Except in extreme cases.

After a long pause, Jiraiya said with a slightly worried look: "Naruto-chan, your master may have to leave for a while."

"What's wrong?" Naruto was puzzled.

"When I was out of the village these days, I found some information that made me very concerned..."

"So, during the time I'm away, you should stay in the village and train hard. When I return to the village, I guess you will have become an amazing ninja, Naruto."

Naruto was surprised: "How long are you going to be gone?"

Jiraiya stroked his chin and thought: "It's hard to say. It depends on the specific situation. It could be as short as three to five years or as long as ten years... What's the matter? Are you reluctant to let me leave? Are you going to drop a pearl?"

"That's not necessary--" Naruto opened his mouth to deny.

"Let's not talk about this for now." Jiraiya said, "After I leave Konoha, you can't stop practicing senjutsu."

"So, you have to sign a contract."

Jiraiya summoned a huge scroll.

Then lay it on the ground and spread it out.

"This is the Toad Contract Scroll from Myoboku Mountain. Write your name on it with your own blood and you will be able to sign a psychic contract."

"In this way, even if the master is not here, you will not fall behind in the practice of immortal arts! What do you think? Isn't the master thoughtful?"

The contract scroll of Myoboku Mountain.

Logically speaking, as Jiraiya's apprentice, he should have signed the contract long ago, but he was too young to come into contact with such dangerous things.

It's not that summoning magic is dangerous, but I'm afraid that children of this age will get itchy and perform summoning magic on the streets, causing losses to Konoha.
