The Mutant God in American Comics.

If Naruto wasn't very worried that Sasuke would turn bad before.

After seeing Sasuke's performance in the Forest of Death, Naruto became more and more worried that Sasuke would go astray.

Although he wanted to persuade Sasuke, it was obvious that Sasuke would not listen to him at all.

Therefore, Richard, who gave Sasuke special training and sold the vibranium sword to Sasuke, became the adult who taught Sasuke bad things in Naruto's eyes.

Richard ignored Naruto's hostility and said to Jiraiya: "Nice to meet you. I am Richard. I am very happy to meet Master Jiraiya in the village."

Although he was not a ninja of Konoha, he still respectfully addressed Jiraiya as "Sir".

Jiraiya is a little bit lustful, but in other aspects, his character is impeccable.

"What do you want from me?"

Jiraiya asked Richard.

"Nothing, I just knew that you, Jiraiya-sama, have returned to the village, so I wanted to have a simple sparring match with you."

Richard replied casually.

Want to spar with me?

Although he did not sense any malice or hostility from Richard, Jiraiya did not think that Richard, who was respected by the Third Hokage, would come to him for a sparring match for no reason.

When he first heard the Third Hokage talking about Richard, he actually didn't take Richard seriously.

What really made him take it seriously was the evaluation of Richard given by the Third Hokage.

"His strength is definitely not inferior to the three of you!"

These are the original words of the Third Hokage.

As a student of the Third Hokage, Jiraiya certainly would not doubt the Third Hokage's judgment.

After a few seconds of silence, Jiraiya slowly said: "I can spar with you, but not in the village, let's go outside the village."

"it is good!"

Richard nodded.

After hearing his answer, Jiraiya turned to Naruto and said, "You continue to practice the summoning technique, don't be lazy, I will be back soon."

"I won't be lazy!"

Naruto replied immediately.

After giving Naruto the order, Jiraiya took the lead in using the instant body movement technique and rushed out of the village.

Richard did not use the teleportation technique like Jiraiya, but instead used his flying ability and followed Jiraiya slowly.

After seeing Richard following him in the air, Jiraiya suddenly had an idea and used all his strength to perform the body-flickering technique in an attempt to get rid of Richard.

Jiraiya's instant body movement technique is extremely fast, far exceeding that of an average jonin.

But for Richard, it was still not fast.

Even though Jiraiya had used all his strength to perform the body-flickering technique, he still looked relaxed in the air.

Not long after, Richard and Jiraiya left the village.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence or Jiraiya’s deliberate choice, but Jiraiya brought Richard to the cliff where Naruto summoned Gamabunta.

After arriving here, Jiraiya turned to Richard in the air and said, "Are you going to fight me in the air?"

"Of course not. Flying in the air is a little too unfair."

Richard landed more than ten meters away from Jiraiya and spoke slowly.

"I heard from others that you are good at swordsmanship?"

Jiraiya continued.

"That's it."

"However, I do not intend to spar with you in swordplay."

Richard replied.

"So what are you going to use, ninjutsu?"

Jiraiya asked.

"Yes!"

"Although I am good at swordsmanship, I am also a ninja."

Under Jiraiya's gaze, Richard slowly raised his right hand and performed the Rasengan.

Is this a Rasengan?

After seeing the Rasengan in Richard's right hand, Jiraiya's expression suddenly changed.

Although the Rasengan is quite famous, as far as he knows, the only people who can use the Rasengan now are himself and Kakashi.

Whether it was him or Kakashi, their Rasengan was taught by Minato.

The only difference is that Jiraiya also knows the Rasengan, but it was Minato who developed the Rasengan and shared it with him as his teacher.

As for Kakashi, he learned the Rasengan from Minato as a student.

"How do you know the Rasengan?"

Jiraiya asked, frowning.

Although Minato left some information about the Rasengan, that information was strictly guarded by Konoha.

Not to mention that Richard is not a ninja from Konoha, even if he is an elite jonin from Konoha, he has no way of accessing that information.

“I taught myself!”

"As long as you know the principle of Rasengan, it is not difficult to learn Rasengan by yourself. You should also be aware of this."

Richard said slowly.

That being said, the principle behind the Rasengan is the biggest secret of this technique.

It is difficult to accurately reverse engineer the principles of the Rasengan just by looking at its appearance and the power it displays.

In addition, even if you know the principle of Rasengan, it is not an easy task to figure out the steps to learn Rasengan.

If you don't learn according to the steps and want to master it in one go, the difficulty of learning Rasengan is no less than that of S-level ninjutsu.

Jiraiya didn't say anything, just looked at Richard in silence.

Then, he raised his right hand and performed the Rasengan.

"Since you want to spar with me using the Rasengan, then come on!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiraiya shot towards Richard.

……

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 180 Competition for Hokage

With Richard's reaction and speed, he could easily avoid Jiraiya's attack.

But he didn't intend to do that.

Although Jiraiya has mastered the Rasengan for much longer than him, he doesn't think that the power of the Rasengan he performs is weaker than Jiraiya's.

In just a moment, Jiraiya arrived in front of Richard, and the Rasengan in his right hand attacked Richard's chest.

After seeing that Jiraiya was aiming at his chest, Richard also raised his right hand and let the Rasengan in his hand attack Jiraiya's Rasengan.

Bang!

The two Rasengan collided fiercely, causing a huge shock wave and airflow.

Neither Richard's Rasengan nor Jiraiya's Rasengan collapsed in the impact. They still maintained their normal form and spun wildly, trying to completely destroy each other.

Although there was no change in their Rasengan, Jiraiya's expression became extremely solemn.

Because he found that Richard's control over the Rasengan was no less than his own, and his chakra amount was no less than his own.

Who is he?

Why have I never heard of his existence before?

Is he the heir secretly trained by some shadow?

Or is he also a member of Akatsuki?

……

Several thoughts flashed through Jiraiya's mind.

The Naruto world is neither big nor small.

For ordinary people, the Naruto world is indeed very large.

But for an S-class ninja like Jiraiya, the Naruto world is not that big.

Apart from anything else, he has been to every country in the world, and more than once.

Not only that, he knows a lot about the countries of this world.

According to common sense, a powerful ninja like Richard, whose strength has reached the level of an elite jonin, or even the level of a Kage, would have been famous throughout the ninja world long ago.

However, it was not until Kakashi brought back information about Richard from the Land of Waves that Konoha learned of Richard's existence for the first time.

Unlike Jiraiya who had many speculations flashing through his mind, Richard was only thinking about two questions now, that is, whether Jiraiya would use the Sage Mode later, and whether he would summon Gamabunta.

Time passes little by little.

Before I knew it, almost ten seconds had passed.

After discovering that his Rasengan was completely unable to destroy Richard's Rasengan, Jiraiya decisively gave up the idea of ​​continuing the competition.

Without any hesitation, he immediately retreated ten or twenty meters.

Then, he released the Rasengan in his hand.

After releasing the Rasengan, he quickly formed seals with his hands.

Fire Release·Big Flame Bullet!

Soon, he completed the hand seal of Fire Style: Great Flame Bomb, opened his mouth, and blew a huge orange-yellow flame like a cannonball towards Richard.

Although he had never seen Jiraiya perform Fire Style: Great Flame Bullet before, Richard recognized this ninjutsu immediately.

Among the fire-style ninjutsu that Jiraiya has mastered, only two ninjutsu can spit out orange-yellow flames like cannonballs.

One is Fire Style: Flame Bullet, and the other is Fire Style: Great Flame Bullet, which is ten times more powerful than Fire Style: Flame Bullet.

Although it is more powerful, the principles of Fire Style: Great Flame Bullet and Fire Style: Flame Bullet are exactly the same, it's just that the chakra consumed is different.

The chakra is transformed into oil and held in the air, and while spitting out the oil, it is ignited using fire escape technique, and finally forms a fire bomb-like attack.

After seeing Jiraiya perform Fire Style: Great Flame Bullet, Richard also released the Rasengan in his hand and began to circulate the magic power in his body.

Big blizzard!

Ice mirror!

Richard did not perform any other ninjutsu, nor did he dodge, but instead used the Ice Mirror that had once blocked the Three-Tails' water bullet.

As before, the ice mirror is very thin, only a few millimeters thick.

Although it is not thick, the defensive power of the ice mirror is unquestionable.

Sanwei has a deep understanding of this.

A white ice mirror took shape instantly, blocking Richard like a shield.

boom!

The orange-yellow flame like a huge cannonball hit the ice mirror fiercely, making a loud noise and exploding violently like fireworks.

Although it is only a B-level fire ninjutsu, the power of Fire Style: Great Flame Bomb is not weak.

In the book of the designer, Fire Style: Great Flame Bullet has this description.

"The weird giant fire bomb released will burn the world and leave no place to escape!"
