Naruto: What should I do if I am not a genius?.

Why did Jiraiya think of including Taichi as one of the children of prophecy?

Including this time, although Jiraiya had only met Taichi twice, Taichi did not leave a bad impression on Jiraiya.

Although he is a little cunning and not serious, Jiraiya is also such a person, and such people can survive better in the ninja world.

Also, although they had not been together for long, Jiraiya received a lot of comments about Taichi from the Third Hokage, Orochimaru, Tsunade, Minato and others.

Sandai: "He's a bit of a cunning kid, but he cherishes his companions very much."

This is the impression Taichi left on the Third Generation after he risked his life to bring Kakashi and Shikato from Mount Yubaba.

Orochimaru: "Taichi-kun, this is very interesting."

There aren't many people who can interest Orochimaru.

Tsunade: "A sharp-tongued, self-righteous brat, but a man worthy of trust."

Jiraiya still remembered the nostalgia in Tsunade's eyes when she said this. Perhaps Taichi was very similar to someone.

Minato: "Smart, lively, cares about bonds, a very good child."

Although there are some minor flaws, the merits outweigh the flaws and everyone has a positive evaluation of Taiyi.

This also made Jiraiya interested, but unfortunately Taichi was already Sakumo's disciple, so this was not a relationship between teacher and student, but between master and apprentice.

According to the prophecy, Jiraiya's apprentice will be a ninja who can bring changes to the ninja world.

So Taichi didn't stand a chance.

"Oh... what a pity."

Jiraiya sighed and drank the wine in his glass.

Why are you sighing again?

Taichi glanced at Jiraiya in confusion and thought to himself.

If Taichi knew Jiraiya's inner thoughts, he would probably wave his hands and refuse. No one who becomes Jiraiya's apprentice has a good ending.

Yahiko died at the hands of his companions, Nagato was used and beaten to a pulp by the Outer Path Demon Statue, and finally died in order to resurrect the Konoha ninja, and Konan died in order to avenge Nagato Yahiko.

Minato died together with the Nine-Tails, not only losing his wife, but also missing Naruto's growth.

As for Naruto, he was beaten to a pulp in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations and is now sleeping in another dimension.

In short, being Jiraiya's apprentice is extremely dangerous.

Since Taiyi didn't respond, silence fell between the two.

"crash"

Jiraiya stood up and walked out of the hot spring without looking back.

"I have something else to do. I'll pay for it. See you next time, Taiyi."

"See you next time."

Taichi murmured as he looked at Jiraiya's back.

After Jiraiya left, Taichi didn't stay long. He put on his clothes and left the hot spring house.

After returning to the hotel and confirming that no one was following or monitoring him, Taichi took out a bell and input chakra into it.

The bell glowed faintly, and after a moment.

With a "bang", the white smoke dissipated and a big orange car appeared in front of Taiyi.

"You haven't contacted me for a long time. What service do you need this time?"

Baochuan looked at Taiyi excitedly, there was nothing he could do since Taiyi was so generous.

Whether it is custom-made ninja tools or trading information, he never bargains for the price. It is not easy to find such a good customer.

"Long time no see, Baochuan, I have two things to ask you this time."

"tell me the story."

"First, I want information about Kumogakure and Iwagakure. You know what I mean."

Baochuan was stunned for a moment and spoke awkwardly.

"You know, the environment in Iwagakure and Kumogakure is not good, and many cats don't want to go there..."

"Tell me the price."

As soon as Taiyi saw the appearance of the treasure ship, he knew what he was thinking, he just wanted to add money.

"One million taels!"

The treasure ship extended a claw.

"Okay, time?"

Taiyi agreed immediately. To be honest, one million taels was not expensive. It was just the price of an S-level mission. If Konoha were to handle it, the cost would probably be much more than that.

"Great! I love doing business with you. The intelligence this time is a little difficult to get. I will give you the most detailed intelligence in five days."

When Baochuan heard Taiyi's agreement, his eyes turned into money.

"Five days...ok."

Taichi thought about it and concluded that five days was a fast time to get the information about the two major ninja villages, Iwagakure and Kumogakure. Jiraiya had just found clues about Kumogakure. If he wanted to know the specific truth, it would probably take at least ten days.

"What's the second thing?"

"The second thing is easy. I don't have enough weights on me. I need a new set that is 20% heavier. I also need some kunai and shurikens. Don't use inferior ones on me."

"Why are you still mentioning that? I didn't make any mistakes in these transactions."

Baochuan said somewhat embarrassedly.

One time, Baochuan mixed a few inferior products into the ninja tools for trading, and thought they would not be discovered. However, Taiyi had extraordinary sight and could see through them at a glance.

The treasure ship took great pains and collected a lot of intelligence before it regained Taiyi's trust.

"That's better. Come to the Grass Kingdom to find me in five days. You will be able to find me."

Taichi calculated that five days would be enough for him to complete three tasks and reach the Land of Grass.

"Okay, remember to prepare the money."

Baochuan agreed, waved to Taiyi, and then turned into a wisp of white smoke and disappeared.

"There are a lot of things that need to be accelerated, and maybe we shouldn't take them too seriously."

Taiyi sat in the empty room, looking very lonely.

At night, the moon rises above the willow trees.

It's very windy and cloudy tonight, perfect weather for killing people.

Taichi performed the transformation technique, changed his appearance, and disguised himself.

The target tonight is an official, an official from the Kingdom of Tang, who is currently living in the post house in the capital, which is heavily guarded.

Taichi didn't understand why the Sandaime allowed such a mission, but knowing that Taichi had seen the young man, he had some guesses.

The struggle for power is something that even the Hokage cannot do anything about.

Because Konoha and the Fire Nation have a cooperative relationship, even if Konoha loses the support of the Fire Nation, life will only become difficult, but it will not be completely devastated. If the Fire Nation loses Konoha, it will lose its strongest military force.

Therefore, Hokage and Daimyo are two systems. No one can decide for the other, they can only influence each other.

Such a relationship only exists between Konoha and the Land of Fire; other ninja villages cannot do it.

Without the support of the country, the strength of other ninja villages will plummet, especially Sunagakure.

However, Taiyi doesn't need to think about these things, he just needs to complete the task. Taiyi has done a lot of things when he was in the Anbu.

And Taiyi doesn't want to get involved in these matters, or he has no qualifications at all.

Although it was late at night, the posthouse was still brightly lit and groups of soldiers were patrolling.

Taiyi hid in the shadows, carefully observing the soldiers' patrol patterns.

Although with Taiyi's strength, it would be no problem for him to just rush over, but that would cause too much noise, and it would not be called an assassination.

An hour later, Taiyi figured out the soldiers' patrol patterns and found several hidden sentries.

Seizing the opportunity, Taiyi flew across the night sky like a bird, without making any sound.
