Naruto Arrows

When Hyuga Hizashi took advantage of Jiraiya's opportunity to accept Ningci as his disciple and put pressure on the clan elders, Jiraiya, who returned to Konoha, took Ningci to the Hokage's office again.

"So, what the Great Toad Sage of Mt. Myoboku means is to let Ningci study in the school step by step, and then be promoted to jounin step by step, and then study natural energy in detail?"

And after hearing that they had actually seen Gamamaru, who had lived for a thousand years and could be called a living fossil in the ninja world, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but look surprised.

However, when he heard what Gamamaru said, he felt relieved.

As his disciple, Jiraiya was very satisfied, but because he became a descendant of Mount Myoboku when he was young, he spent a lot of time practicing at Mount Myoboku.

Many times, whenever he thought that Jiraiya was always unwilling to take over the position of Hokage, but insisted on following Gamamaru's prophecy to find the elusive son of prophecy, he would always feel a sense of resentment in his heart. I can't help but think bitterly in my heart, if Myoboku-san hadn't been too involved, if Gamamaru hadn't been so "noisy", he might have given Jiraiya some prophecies, maybe Jiraiya would really He listened to his advice and took over as Hokage.

And if Jiraiya becomes the Fourth Hokage and his student Namikaze Minato becomes the Fifth Hokage, then he will probably not have any regrets when he completely closes his eyes and goes to the Pure Land to meet the two teachers.

Unfortunately, it could not be assumed in the past that Namikaze Minato, who was promoted by him, was indeed an excellent successor. Unfortunately, he died too early.

Therefore, if Mount Myoboku really wanted to keep Neci to practice in Mount Myoboku because of Neji's special physique, he would be worried that Ningci would follow in Jiraiya's footsteps and be too deeply involved with Mount Myoboku. Although he has deep feelings for Konoha, he is also burdened by big and general goals such as those prophecies, and cannot serve Konoha wholeheartedly.

Now that Gamamaru has spoken, he can take advantage of this period of time to instill the "Will of Fire" in Neji, and at the same time deepen the bond between Neji, the village, and his friends in the village.

Of course, it would be great if Jiraiya could be tied up in the village because of this.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had a plan in mind, put down the pipe in his hand and spoke seemingly casually.

"In that case, Ningji, you can continue to go back to the ninja school to attend classes. As for Jiraiya, you can stay in the village for the time being and teach Neji well."

"My journey to collect information is not over yet."

Naturally, Jiraiya immediately saw through his teacher's Xiao Jiujiu, curled his lips, and refused without giving any face.

"What's more, this little guy is still laying the foundation and doesn't need my guidance yet. It's better to wait until he graduates and passes the Chuunin exam. After he becomes a Chunin, I will come back and take him out to practice. It’s good.”

"After all, this is where you were born and raised,"

Looking at the determined students, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but sigh and asked helplessly.

"Don't you really have any nostalgia at all?"

"It's precisely because there are so many memories here. Staying here will always remind me of those things in the past and those people, so..."

After Jiraiya was silent for a moment, he also sighed slightly, a flash of pain flashed in his eyes, and he shook his head slightly.

"Ok."

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who knew he couldn't force it, smiled bitterly. His already old face looked a little older, and he nodded.

However, when he saw the silent Ningji next to Jiraiya, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes.

The past cannot be pursued, but the future can be looked forward to.

"By the way, this is the reward I promised to give Neji,"

Thinking in his mind, he took out the wooden box containing the Longan Yali Dark Knife from the cabinet, handed it to Jiraiya, and said.

"This ninja is very special. It has the ability to change its shape, length, and size. Neji wants to remake it into a bow, but after all, it is a special ninja, and ordinary craftsmen may not be able to complete it. So, since you want to travel around the ninja world, you might as well take this ninja tool with you and help find an outstanding ninja craftsman who can make it into a bow, and help your student fulfill this wish."

Curiously, he took the limited Longan Yali Dark Knife, which was larger than a palm. After looking at it for a moment, Jiraiya couldn't help but be curious and input a little chakra. The ninja tool, which originally looked more like a toy, immediately stretched out his hand. Long, transformed into three iron dragons. If he hadn't controlled it in time and avoided the table in front of him, Sarutobi Hiruzen would have had to change his desk again.

"This ninja tool is very rare. Where did you get it?"

. . .

Finally returning home, Neji couldn't help but collapsed on the tatami.

Although he was extremely nervous when meeting Gamamaru during this trip to Mt. Myoboku, fortunately, the final result made him very satisfied.

Not only did he understand that the energy of Wuye·Falling Star was natural energy, but he also knew that the ancient book in his mind seemed to be very eager for natural energy.

Although he still doesn't know what this ancient book will look like after absorbing a sufficient amount of natural energy and what benefits it will have for him, he still has hope.

It's a pity that with one word from Gamamaru, his hope of running to Myoboku Mountain to absorb the natural energy was dashed. In ordinary places, although there is natural energy, it is too thin. The ancient books seem to be unable to absorb it, or the absorption is too slow. , he couldn't even detect it.

In this case, he had to think about where, besides the three holy places, there were places with abundant natural energy.

Natural energy. . .

He muttered silently in his mind, and suddenly, he sat up and a name appeared in his mind.

Heavy me.

In the original comics, this guy seems to be the freak with a special physique that can absorb natural energy.

Although he will immediately go crazy after absorbing natural energy, like schizophrenia, and become a completely opposite character, but because of this, his body is the best detector for detecting the concentration of natural energy.

As long as it is a place where he can go crazy, the concentration of natural energy should be very rich even if it is not as strong as the three holy places.

"Hey, it seems useless. That place is definitely not around Konoha. Even if I knew it, I wouldn't be able to go there. When I can go, I will probably be able to freely enter and leave Mt. Myoboku."

But immediately, he fell down like a salted fish.

"However, when the ancient book absorbs enough natural energy, I won't be like Jugo, right?"

Drowsiness came over him, and before he fell asleep completely, he couldn't help but a thought suddenly appeared in his mind, which made him lose all sleep in an instant.
