Naruto: After traveling through time, I became the disciple of the first generation

Jiraiya never thought that one day he would hear the old man say something like this: "Old man, you finally came to your senses. If you had come to your senses earlier, Konoha Village might not have developed so late."

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand: "Okay, stop talking about me. How was your year?"

Jiraiya thought for a moment and said, "It's OK. I traveled to the Rain Country for a while, but...some very strange things happened in that country. The whole country is very strange."

Sarutobi Hiruzen also sighed: "I seem to have heard that the Rain Country may decline because of this incident."

"But it doesn't matter. I don't think there will be any more wars in the ninja world in the future. Everyone should start to develop peacefully."

I have never known why the old man said that. Wars between countries can break out at any time and no one can predict it.

But how could the old man be so sure? Was there something he didn't know?

Before Jiraiya could ask, Sarutobi Hiruzen told him what happened some time ago.

"Minato should have told you about the development of the Rain Country, right?"

Jiraiya nodded, "Well, now that I've said that, is there any connection between the two?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said, "Of course it does matter."

"The Kingdom of Wind, the Kingdom of Earth, and the Kingdom of Lightning were jealous of the land of the Kingdom of Rain, and launched a war of aggression against them. As a result, before they even reached the border of the Kingdom of Rain, their army, totaling 70,000 to 80,000 people, was repelled!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's words surprised Jiraiya: "How is this possible! An army of 70,000 or 80,000 was beaten back!"

"Yes, and since then, these countries have not made any moves, and dare not act recklessly in the ninja world. Everyone is very quiet."

Jiraiya asked uncertainly, "Is this also a way to take the wind from the clouds? He is so strong!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Jiraiya and said, "Of course. The strength of a Six Paths-level ninja is beyond your and my imagination. The Leaf Village was already on alert. We thought they were coming to attack us."

"In the end, Minato went to another world to ask for help, but Master Qufeng told him to go back and do what he had to do, and that was it."

When Jiraiya heard these things, his heart was also a little surging: "I really want to go to another world more and more. Who is this person named Yunzhongqufeng?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen gave him an unpleasant look and said, "Pay attention to the title of honor! In the ninja world, strength is respected. Even I have to call him sir, not to mention that he is older than you!"

Jiraiya was used to being free and unrestrained, so it was normal that he couldn't change it for a while. However, he also realized that he should change his name, otherwise he would suffer.

"Okay, okay, Master Qufeng, this will be fine."

"That's the best. Remember to address people respectfully. The other world is not like Konoha Village where you can just do whatever you want."

Then Sarutobi Hiruzen reminded him again, "You must correct your behavior in the village as well. There are many villagers from other worlds in the village now. They are very respectful to Master Qufeng. Don't anger them, or both villages will be in trouble."

It was rare for Jiraiya to see the old man nagging like this, and for a moment he was a little uncomfortable: "Okay, okay, I know everything, just rest assured, old man."

Afterwards, Jiraiya chatted with Sarutobi Hiruzen for a while and then left the Sarutobi clan's territory.

This trip brought him a lot of gains and made him feel much better.

"I didn't expect to see this side of the old man. It seems that this other world is not a bad thing for Konoha Village."

Now that Konoha Village is thriving, he, as a ninja from Konoha Village, is naturally proud of it.

"Where should we go next?"

A figure suddenly appeared in Jiraiya's mind. Thinking of this, he immediately set off for the back mountain of Konoha Village.

It is said that Konoha Village's scientific research institute is built here.

After arriving here, I found an inconspicuous entrance embedded in the cave.

However, there were people coming in and out from time to time, so it wasn't particularly deserted.

Jiraiya came to the door and there was no guard, so he went in easily.

After passing through a dark tunnel, we soon arrived at a bright place.

There were many people wearing white research coats walking around the room.

And he saw the person he wanted to see at a glance.

Orochimaru was wearing a research suit, explaining various data and theories to the young students beside him.

When he caught a glimpse of Jiraiya from the corner of his eye, he smiled and sent the student away.

Then he walked straight towards Jiraiya.

"Old friend, long time no see."

"You've changed so much that I can't recognize you anymore."

Orochimaru is not someone who has the patience to teach students.

Orochimaru chuckled: "People always change, don't they?"

"What made you change so much? To be honest, after I returned to the village, I even thought it was another world."

Orochimaru looked at him and said, "In fact, you have already given the answer. It is the changed me in another world."

"I have witnessed too many deaths, so I have developed a fear of death. I don't want to die. I want true eternal life."

"So I studied at all costs, but on the way to the other world, I discovered that the universe is vast and I am just a speck of dust."

"Even if it is immortality, it is too small and weak."

Jiraiya didn't quite understand what Orochimaru meant: "So? Seeing the wider world made you give up your previous goals?"

Orochimaru shook his head: "No, I have already achieved the purpose of eternal life. Now I am the immortal Orochimaru."

"But I still need to work hard to move towards higher strength and explore the unknown. This world is too magical and wonderful. I need to explore it carefully."

People like Jiraiya naturally couldn't understand Orochimaru, but he was naturally very happy to see that his old friend had changed so much.

"You are now able to achieve immortality? Has your research on life reached such an extent?"

Orochimaru shook his head: "It's not the study of life, but ninjutsu. I can replace my own body with someone else's."

Jiraiya frowned when he heard this. Isn't this murder?

Forcibly occupying someone else's body to revive yourself.

"You may be overthinking it. I am already able to produce artificial humans on my own. They do not have thoughts and are used specifically for experiments."

So that's how it is. If you don't have any thoughts, you can't be called a human being.

In that case, it would be fine for Orochimaru to deal with it as he pleased.

"I am not as good as you in developing ninjutsu. Perhaps only the old man can be stronger than you."
