Chapter 901: Jiraiya's Double Standards!
Chapter 901: Jiraiya's Double Standards!
"Rasengan!"
"Rasengan!"
Almost in unison, two figures descended from the sky, blasting away a giant rhinoceros and a massive dog.
Large Summoned Beasts! Their destructive power was overwhelming, making them the priority targets.
In a one-on-one fight, these beasts wouldn't be much of a threat. But in a large-scale battle like this, their impact was terrifying, even more so than Kage-level opponents.
Each attack was comparable to high-level ninjutsu, and they can use them consecutively. Their destructive power is off the charts!"
Thus, both Jiraiya and Naruto immediately focused on these large Summoned Beasts.
"Are you ready?"
Tendou Pain's gaze shifted towards Jiraiya and Naruto, who were not far away.
This movement also made Asuma, who was currently engaged in combat, realize that he was not their target.
This infuriated him. Why, why did everyone ignore him?
He had thought that as the 'Dragon of Konoha', no one could possibly overlook his presence.
But now, he was being humiliated.
'If I were the Hokage, would they dare ignore me?'
The thought flashed through his mind.
The darkened Asuma had been striving to become the Hokage, and this humiliation only accelerated his determination.
"Shintengai!"
Tendou Pain seized the opening and instantly blasted Asuma away.
Bang!
Asuma crashed into a dilapidated building like a cannonball.
Super Kage-level, and you think you can mess with me?
Tendou Pain had held back earlier to force out the Nine-Tails, but now that the target had revealed itself, he wouldn't continue playing with Asuma.
"Pain, I swear I will avenge this humiliation!"
Inside the building, Asuma's eyes were filled with uncontrollable hatred.
It was only because his current strength was insufficient; otherwise, he would have torn Pain to pieces.
"Teacher!!"
A voice called out from outside the building, and Nara Shikamaru and Akado Shijou rushed in.
As Asuma's disciples, they were always concerned about their teacher, so when they saw him blasted away, they rushed over immediately.
"I'm fine!"
Asuma responded softly. From the outside, no one would guess the darkness within him.
He knew that his disciples would be his allies, so he had always taken care of them and brought them into his fold.
The Ino-Shika-Cho trio had always been led by the Apefly Clan, and there was even the 'Earring Alliance' pact, so his actions were aboveboard, and he wasn't afraid of the clever Shikamaru noticing anything.
"Do you need a healing potion?"
Shikamaru was still a bit worried and took out a bottle of the 'Refined' version of the healing potion.
This potion, originally invented by Tang Ping, was now in abundance.
The Sunlight Nation was selling it in 'bulk'.
After the Uchiha Clan's destruction, the special algae left in Konoha also fell into Konoha's hands, increasing the supply.
With the increased supply, the Nara Clan, known for their expertise in medicinal herbs, naturally found a way to 'refine' the potion for better results.
The original healing potion was diluted from the original liquid, and refining it wasn't overly complicated, so the Nara Clan successfully created a 'Refined' version.
Even though its effect was far inferior to the original liquid, it was still better than ordinary healing techniques.
The key was that it could be carried around, and it worked quickly, making it perfect.
"No need!"
Asuma declined his disciples' offer.
He knew how precious the Refined version of the healing potion was, and even he didn't have many bottles, so it was best to conserve it. Besides, he hadn't sustained much injury.
Whoosh!
He got up and rushed out again.
The battlefield had already undergone a significant change.
Earlier, Konoha ninjas had used their lives to hold back the Six Paths of Pain, but now it was a battle between strong opponents. Ordinary ninjas formed a perimeter around the area, preventing Pain's escape and ready to provide support at any moment.
Jiraiya + Naruto vs. Six Paths of Pain!
The two clashed in the ruins of the Southern Gate.
Naruto's strength had skyrocketed, and he had already reached the level of a quasi-Kage.
Especially in learning Sage Jutsu, he was truly astonishing.
In less than a few months, he had mastered Sage Mode, leaving Jiraiya and the Toad Clan in awe and secretly considering him the 'Prophesied Child'.
Hmm, the original prophecy was that Jiraiya's disciple would save the Shinobi World.
If that's the case, then it fits perfectly.
Only a gifted Naruto like him could defeat Douhei and save the Shinobi World from being destroyed by the Sunlight Nation.
In Jiraiya's heart, the Sunlight Nation ruling the Shinobi World was akin to the destruction of the world.
Jiraiya and Naruto were at an absolute disadvantage when they joined forces.
After all, the former had already lost his 'Trinity' Sage Mode, and the latter had yet to unlock his Tailed Beast Cloak, so they were at a disadvantage in this trial phase.
"Chamaru, even if it's you, I will never forgive you. I must correct the mistake from back then!"
Jiraiya's expression was cold and determined.
Even if the other party was his disciple, he would never allow them to destroy Konoha.
Now, with the significant destruction they've caused in the village, as the Hokage, he naturally couldn't let them off, even if they were his disciples.
In the original story, Jiraiya, as Naruto's teacher, was highly respected and admired. However, he inherited the typical traits of the Hokage System, making it unlikely for him to develop positive feelings towards Douhei.
Those who fanatically praised 'The dragon roams the ocean, but the ocean does not welcome me, Jiraiya' before the story would likely change their tune if they experienced the destruction of their homes and the slaughter of their loved ones by Konoha, and if they were labeled as making 'mistakes' by Jiraiya.
It can only be said that those who stand and talk are not the ones suffering.
Although Douhei was one of the original characters, it doesn't prevent him from making a quick decision to defect.
"Is that so? Then let's use Lord Douhei's words, 'Truth is only in the range of Kunai,' to determine who is right between us, Teacher Jiraiya!"
Chamaru firmly believed in his conviction.
Only by letting these great ninja villages taste pain can they understand the value of peace.
Slap! Jiraiya clapped his hands and began to gather natural energy.
Naruto formed hand seals and shouted.
"Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Boom!
Numerous Narutos appeared on the battlefield, each enveloped in red Tailed Beast Chakra, rushing towards the Six Paths of Pain.
Apparently, they were preparing to cover Jiraiya as he entered Sage Mode.
