Chapter 31 The Key
Chapter 31 key

"Oh!"

As a puff of light smoke filled the air, Minato slumped down before he could see what the toad he had channeled looked like.

Just a moment ago, he almost released all the chakra in his body, but even so, according to his prediction, the current self will definitely not be able to psychic out any decent psychic beasts.

This kind of high-level ninjutsu, which is generally only qualified to be mastered by jonin, is too reluctant to perform it with his current strength.

He raised his eyes, and what caught his eyes was a toad with an extremely strange shape.
The body of the toad in front of the water gate is extremely long, like a long scroll rolled up.

"Toad Yin?" Ji Lai also jumped when he saw this scroll toad.

The scroll toad first looked around, then paid no attention to Minato, looked at Jiraiya, and said, "Since you are in the village, you probably don't need me to deliver any information, so why did you summon me?"

Toad Toru looked slightly impatient, but when Minato saw it, his azure blue pupils shrank subconsciously.

"Key. Key." He subconsciously muttered something, and his expression became serious.

At the moment when Jiraiya was explaining to Toad Yin, Minato's voice suddenly became louder, and he said in a hurry: "Toad Yin, can you open the scroll of your body for me to see?!!"

Toad Yin Jilai was also startled by Minato's tone, and looked at Minato.

"Minato, what's wrong with you?" It was the first time Jiraiya saw him showing such an expression.

"Hey, brat, who are you?" Toad Yin was a little impatient, especially when a child like Minato called him by his first name.

Minato's expression looked a little bewildered, he dragged his somewhat limp body up to Toad Yin, and immediately noticed the inappropriate tone just now, but his expression was still a little hasty.

"Excuse me, can you let me see what is written on the scroll in your body?" Minato begged.

Toad Yin still ignored him.

At this time, Jilai also appeared beside Shuimen, looked at Hamo Yin, and said: "You are a psychic from him, according to the contract, you must obey his orders."

"Are you kidding me?"

Toad Yin snorted, the Minato in front of him was just a seven or eight-year-old child, although it was not a powerful psychic beast, but without the strength of Chunin, it was still impossible to psychic it out.

"Am I joking with you, why don't you verify it yourself?"

Jiraiya also said that because of the contract, the psychic beasts actually have a trace of the psychic's chakra attached to them.

Toad Yin sensed the trace of chakra on his body suspiciously, and found that it was not Jiraiya, but exactly the same as the blond kid in front of him.

In other words, he was indeed summoned by the kid in front of him!
"Please, let me see."

Minato's expression was still a bit strange, and he ignored Jiraiya's inquiries beside him.

Toad Yin pursed his lips in displeasure, but he couldn't disobey the stipulations of the contract, and immediately made seals with his hands, his scroll-like body opened, but there was nothing, it was blank.

He is not a fighting type, but a scroll toad, which is used to convey information, and the information transmitted last time was eliminated under Jiraiya's signal.

Minato stared blankly at the blank scroll in front of him, and something seemed to come out of his mind.

He squatted down, put his palm through his bangs, and supported his forehead. The red-haired woman appeared in his consciousness again. This time, the corners of her slender mouth were stained with bright red blood.

It wasn't just her alone, there seemed to be another person behind her, and that person's figure was even more blurred.

Minato could only see that it seemed to be a man with blood on the corner of his mouth, not only that, but also an indescribable emotion.

Reluctant?relieved?sad?
Minato couldn't tell what kind of expression that was, but it made his body tremble uncontrollably.

"Key." He kept murmuring the word in his mouth.

Gradually, the images in his mind gradually faded, and his struggling look relaxed.

"Teacher." Only then did Minato notice that Jiraiya had been watching him beside him.

"Are you okay?" Zilai also asked.

"Well, I made you worry."

My consciousness was a little fuzzy just now, but my body seemed to be shaking, showing an appearance of extreme pain.

He raised his eyes, and found that the scroll toad that he channeled had disappeared.

"Where's Toad Yin?"

Hearing this, Ji Lai also smiled awkwardly, and said, "He was a little upset that you were psychic out, so he undid the psychic and went back to Miaomu Mountain."

Although the psychic has a contract restriction, which makes the psychic beast obey the order of the caster, but the psychic beast also has the right to choose. Toad Yin is not bad, and some stronger psychic beasts refuse to accept the spell. The consequences are quite serious.

After all, most psychics are in battle all the time, and in battle, no mistakes can be made.

"I was indeed rude just now." Minato also knew that there was something wrong with his appearance just now.

Ji Lai also said, "Compared to this, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing the teacher's worried expression, Minato wanted to tell him all the strange things that happened to him recently, but it seemed that there was a force restraining his heart, preventing him from speaking out.

It was an extremely gloomy feeling, coming from the bottom of Minato's heart.

It was a coincidence, but Minato blurted out, "It's okay, maybe it's because I practiced too hard today and overused chakra."

However, how could such slightly perfunctory words be concealed, but he saw the helplessness in Minato's expression, so he didn't ask further.

"Then you should go home early to rest, and have class tomorrow." Zilai also said.

"As for my guidance on your cultivation, it's best not to tell outsiders. After all, this is also a secret order issued by three generations."

Minato nodded upon hearing this.

"At this stage, there is only so much I can teach you. The future practice will require your own perseverance. Run around Konoha at least [-] times a day. As for the time you allocate, I will make it for you from time to time and place. Obstacles, you'd better be mentally prepared."

"Yes, teacher!" Minato nodded, and Jiraiya gave him a smile back, and then watched Minato leave.

It's just that after Minato left, Jiraiya's expression gradually sank, looking at the direction in which Minato left, thinking in his heart.

"This child, what will you want to hide from me?"
