Konoha: Start with a bowl of noodles!Ninjutsu is all about stealing

Nagato is special not only because he has the Rinnegan, but also because he possesses an extremely large amount of chakra.

Compared with Nagato, Yahiko and Konan's chakra amount is less than one-tenth of Nagato's.

When Yahiko released his ninjutsu, he was already panting and out of breath after using four or five water waves.But Nagato released four or five wind escapes - Gale Palm, still full of energy and energy.

In this regard, Yahiko felt it was very unfair: "Jiraiya-sensei, I am obviously the boss of the trio, but Nagato is better than me in every way."

Jiraiya laughed loudly: "Although Nagato has more chakra than you, he is taciturn and does not have leadership skills like you. When you look at problems, don't just look at the shortcomings, but also think about the good points."

Xiaonan also came to comfort Yahiko: "We are all friends, it doesn't matter whether we are strong or not."

Strangely enough, as soon as Yahiko hears Konan's persuasion, he will immediately become good and behave himself with his tail between his legs.

Jiraiya saw the clue: Hey!I didn’t realize it, but this Yahiko is also an expert at flirting with girls.Hehe, if Yahiko can be with Konan in the future, Yahiko will be very lucky.

During the breaks in training, Yahiko and Konan would often hang out in the town on dates, while Nagato would stare at the sky silently.

Jiraiya originally thought Nagato would be lost.But when he carefully observed Nagato's face, he found that Nagato's expression was just a kind of ethereal indifference.

Jiraiya thought: The pain of seeing his parents die was too much for Nagato.In order to prevent him from becoming a gloomy and introverted person, I'd better enlighten him more.

Jiraiya patted Nagato on the shoulder and said, "Nagato, come with me. We won't be training today. I'll take you fishing!"

Nagato replied expressionlessly: "Okay."

On the riverside, Jiraiya and Chang'anmon held their fishing rods and stared at the water in the river.

"Nagato, do you know who is the strongest among your trio?"

"Probably Yahiko, he's always more active."

"No, no, no, Yahiko is careless and often does things without thinking. In my opinion, you are the calmest and strongest among the three."

Nagato showed an expression of disbelief and asked, "Really? Teacher Jiraiya, aren't you kidding?"

"What I said is real."

Just as he was talking, Nagato took the lead in catching the fish.

Jiraiya smiled and said: "Wuhu! Nagato, the fish you caught are really big!"

Nagato showed a long-lost smile: "This is just a coincidence. In fact, I don't know how to fish at all."

Jiraiya said: "No, there are not so many coincidences in this world. Just like you have the Samsara Eye, it is not a coincidence."

"Your heart is calmer than others, and your hands are steadier than others, so you can catch big fish faster than me."

Nagato listened quietly.

"Nagato, you are completely different from the others. I guess you may be the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths, and this is probably how your Samsara Eye came about."

"A person's life is short, and I am no exception. Moreover, my abilities are extremely limited. The so-called ninja path requires continuous inheritance and search by masters and disciples. I hope that, like me, you will Find the path of peace and go on.”

Uzumaki Nagato asked: "Jiraiya-sensei, who is the Six Paths Sage you are talking about?"

"That was a long, long time ago. In that era unknown to us, the wars in the world were even more cruel than they are now."

"When mankind was on the verge of despair, a monk appeared. He was the first to understand the true meaning of Chakra and lead the world to peace."

"He takes Ninja sect as his teachings and travels around the world to promote his ideas."

"This monk is the Immortal of Six Paths!"

"As time goes by, the things he left behind are called ninjutsu and ninja sect by later generations. But contrary to the wishes of the Six Paths Sage, people only pay attention to the application of ninjutsu and forget the true meaning of ninjutsu."

"The countries only know how to practice ninjutsu. The villages only know how to hone their killing skills. The entire ninja world has completely forgotten about the ninja sect."

"Did you know? Nagato, you have the same samsara eye as the Sage of Six Paths."

"I firmly believe that a world where people understand each other will eventually come. And the key to that world of great harmony may be your reincarnation eye!"

"So Nagato, don't lose hope in yourself. You must always believe that the path you are taking is the right one."

Uzumaki Nagato listened quietly to Jiraiya's warning, feeling extremely shocked in his heart.He clasped his hands and watched the sky in the Kingdom of Rain gradually clear up from the gloom.

One day two years later, Jiraiya suddenly made a rather sumptuous dinner for Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan.

Yahiko asked doubtfully: "Jiraiya-sensei, why did you think of cooking such a sumptuous dinner today? Aren't you usually very frugal?"

Jiraiya smiled bitterly and said, "Ah, it's because I have something important to tell you today." As he said that, Jiraiya looked from the window of the wooden house in the direction of Konoha Village.

The attentive Konan noticed Jiraiya's eyes, and her heart skipped a beat: Could it be... Could it be that Mr. Jiraiya is leaving us and returning to Konoha?

After dinner, it started raining heavily outside.Heavy raindrops hit the ground outside the wooden house.

Jiraiya had been observing the expressions of the three disciples, not knowing how to tell them the news that he was leaving.

The cups and plates were in a mess, Xiaonan stood up and prepared to clear away the dishes.

Jiraiya said softly: "Xonan, please wash it later. I have something to tell you."

Yahiko couldn't help but ask: "Jiraiya-sensei, what's the matter with you? Why are you so hesitant today despite being usually outspoken?"

Jiraiya sighed and said, "Teacher, I...I'm going back to Konoha."

After saying these words, the air seemed to freeze, and the sound of breathing almost stopped.

"Why...why did Jiraiya-sensei want to go back suddenly?"

Jiraiya forced a smile on his face: "Actually, a few months ago, I had the idea of ​​returning to Konoha. You see, the three of you have become great ninjas after three years of Ninjutsu learning. ”

"Yahiko and Nagato are much stronger than before, and Konan is even more beautiful than she was when she was born three years ago."

"You three are no longer the children who need my care. Now you have the ability to carve out your own world and realize your own ideals."

As he spoke, Yahiko, who had always been the strongest, shed tears silently.

Jiraiya smiled and said: "Hahaha, Yahiko, why are you crying? This is not like you!"

"Jiraiya-sensei, I actually... don't want to cry. It's just... I just can't help it."

Konan and Yahiko looked at Jiraiya quietly and tried their best to hold back tears.

Jiraiya touched their heads one by one and said with a smile: "Don't be sad, Mr. Jiraiya has not left you. I have to give you a task."

"Task?"

“Finding the path to peace.”

After saying these words, Jiraiya climbed over his frog's board, left the wooden house, and returned to the world of tears...
