Chapter 482 The Savior

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

In the forest of giant trees in the training site No. 4, an energetic voice sounded immediately:

"Spiritualism!"

As the palm slapped the ground heavily, a large swath of smoke covering the field of vision immediately exploded on the spot, and a black shadow loomed in the white smoke.

Wait until the smoke disappeared, and the shadow showed its original shape.

is a toad less than half the height of a person.

Although compared to ordinary toads, this toad's limbs and body are considered robust, but when Naruto saw the toad he summoned, his face was obviously depressed.

Because this level of toad is far from the huge toad that Jiraiya summoned when he demonstrated the psychic technique in the morning.

Moreover, he remembered that Jilai also summoned the Iron Wall Toad from Mt. Miaomu, wearing hard armor on his body, possessing strong resistance to blows and melee combat capabilities.

The toad he summoned at this moment is not only smaller than the Iron Wall Toad, but also does not wear any protective gear on its body. Apart from looking relatively large, it is basically incapable of fighting.

"What, why did I summon this kind of toad after a long time?"

Naruto was seriously dissatisfied with the results of his half-day cultivation.

Jiraiya also listened to Naruto's complaints, and said with a smile: "What are you thinking? Although the art of psychic learning is simple, it is not easy to use it well and summon your favorite psychic beast."

"Is there any trick, Immortal Toad?"

"How could this kind of thing happen? The psychic technique is different from other techniques. It is a technique that summons the contractor to assist oneself in fighting. If you want to talk about the trick..."

Zilai also pondered, as if thinking about something.

Naruto's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "How is it?"

"Speaking of it, it's not impossible. If it were someone else, it might be a little troublesome, but if it's you, maybe you can master the art of psychic skills faster in another way, and summon the powerful psychic beasts in Mt. Miaomu."

"any solution?"

"I should have told you before, the basic rules of psychic art."

Zilai also asked.

"Yes. To put it simply, before performing psychic skills, you need to establish a contract with psychic beasts. Without a psychic beast contract, abuse of psychic skills is likely to be thrown into an unknown time and space, full of uncertainty. In addition, there is a so-called timeliness for summoning psychic beasts. And... and..."

Naruto tried hard to recall the various things that Jiraiya taught him the psychic technique at the beginning.

"Is there anything else? Don't you remember? He really is a simple-minded guy. And the most important point is that when casting psychic techniques, the more Chakra you use, the stronger the summoned psychic beast will be. On the contrary, if you use a very small amount of Chakra, then it will be impossible to summon a powerful psychic beast."

Zilai also said.

"But... Mr. Kakashi said that my Chakra level is relatively high among my peers."

"But your efficiency of converting chakra into ninjutsu is very low. Although you have learned how to climb trees and tread water, you are still suspected of wasting chakra. In other words, your mastery of ninjutsu, under normal circumstances, will be slower than ordinary people. According to this progress, it is estimated that you will not be able to summon your favorite psychic beast before the finals."

Zilai also said seriously.

"Ah? Then what should I do? I don't want to be dumped by Sasuke."

Naruto was a little flustered.

"Haha, don't worry, don't worry. Since I told you about your problem, I will definitely help you solve it."

Although he intends to teach Naruto himself, as one of the Sannin, he is also a busy man, and it is impossible to stay by Naruto's side all the time.

"You should be able to feel that there is another chakra in your body, right?"

Zilai also coughed, and asked intentionally or unintentionally.

Naruto was taken aback, he knew what Jiraiya was referring to.

There is also a terrible monster hidden in his bodythe nine-tailed demon fox.

"What's the matter?"

"Although it's only unconscious, your body is gradually adapting to another kind of chakra. Your current chakra is not enough for you to summon a too powerful psychic beast. If you want to summon an iron wall toad, or a stronger toad, you can only channel another chakra in your body."

As far as the current situation is concerned, even a little Nine-Tails Chakra is stronger than Naruto's own Chakra in terms of strength.

Although he was not in Konoha Village during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, he had never seen Nine-Tails's truly berserk appearance, but he could make many Konoha ninjas helpless, and with the experience of fighting other Jinchuriki, he also understood that the Tailed Beasts are a group of unreasonable chakra creatures.

And when the Tailed Beast is fully used by Jinchuriki, Jinchuriki and the Tailed Beast will explode with power far beyond their own, becoming a meat grinder that is difficult to match head-on on the battlefield.

Naruto also has this potential.

Jirai also hopes that Naruto can have a certain amount of self-protection power before the danger comes.

And this kind of self-protection power can only be accomplished by the Nine Tails.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, Nine Tails is indeed the foundation for Naruto to keep his life.

There are too many powerful ninjas in this world. Naruto who has not yet grown up, in the eyes of these people, is no different from a three-year-old child wandering the streets with gold bars.

"Then how to guide it?"

Naruto raised his head and looked at Jiraiya blankly.

Zilai also chuckled and said, "Speaking of which, I have something to do now."

"What? Then what about my cultivation? Since I promised Mr. Kakashi, you must be responsible to the end!"

Naruto pointed at Jiraiya.

"Of course I know, but you are a little tired after practicing for a long time. Just accompany me to the shrine to collect materials and relax."

Zilai also brushed off the wrinkles of his clothes.

"Materials? What materials?"

Naruto was at a loss.

"Actually, besides being a ninja, I'm also a well-informed novelist. See, this is the novel I write."

Jilai also mysteriously took out a book from his arms.

The cover of the book has the words "Hot to Heaven".

"Ah! That's"

Seeing the book that Jiraiya took out from his arms, Naruto screamed loudly, as if he saw something that shocked him.

"So you know it too? Did you peek?"

Seeing Naruto's reaction, Jiraiya smiled ambiguously and flirted with him.

"No! That's not a serious book at all!"

Naruto blushed and defended.

He wouldn't secretly use the transformation technique to become an adult because Kakashi always loved this book, and went into the bookstore to take a look.

"Sure enough, I am an ignorant child who doesn't understand the fun of adults at all. Anyway, I am also a world celebrity."

Seeing that Naruto seemed to disdain his novels, Jiraiya showed dissatisfaction on his face.

"You are not a toad fairy at all, but a satyr fairy!"

"Don't be as knowledgeable as a child. Now I'm going to collect materials. If you want to follow up, follow up. The combination of work and rest is helpful for cultivation. I heard that there are natural hot springs on the mountain of the shrine."

As he said it himself, he put "Intimate Heaven" in his arms and walked towards the boundary of the venue.

"Hey, wait, don't leave me behind, you pervert!"

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Jiraiya's irresponsible behavior, Naruto also knew that the other party had real skills, so after hesitating for a while, he caught up with Jiraiya.

Climb over the barbed wire fence of No. 4 venue, and came directly to the bottom of the mountain of the nearby shrine.

Looking at the winding path extending to the top of the mountain, Naruto couldn't see the end at a glance.

"so high!"

Naruto opened his mouth wide.

It was the first time for Naruto to come to a place like a shrine, so he was surprised and curious.

"That's right. Although the industry in the Oni Land is extremely developed, the shrine still retains the ancient system. After admiring it, there is no ancient charm."

Zilai also laughed.

Naruto nodded, being here really makes people feel a kind of physical and mental tranquility, as if the body and soul have all returned to nature.

"The most important thing is that the maidens on the shrine are not only clean in body and mind, but also beautiful in appearance. For a man like me, it is a heavenly place."

Jilai also showed a meaningful smile.

"Cut! Is this the idea? Since you are so lecherous, I might as well call you a lecherous fairy from now on."

"There is no way, secular men will always be confused by such and such desires. If I want to get peace of mind and body, I can only let the witches drive away the demons in my heart!"

Jiraiya spoke righteously, as if he had made some great decision, put his hands together, and began to pay homage to the upward approach and torii gate.

His attitude made Naruto speechless and didn't know how to speak.

It's obviously just lust, but it's so righteous and awe-inspiring.

Along the gravel-covered approach, pass through the torii gates, and walk up. It didn't take long to reach the top of the mountain.

The first thing I saw was a torii gate that was bigger than the one on the approach, and there was a shimenawa rope wrapped around it. Not only that, but the huge rocks beside them were also tied with Shimenawa ropes, fluttering in the wind.

The red and white buildings are arranged in an orderly manner.

A large number of trees are planted on the top of the mountain, including cherry trees and peach trees, which are distributed between various buildings, beautiful and elegant.

Besides him and Jiraiya, there are other tourists here.

Although there were not many of them, Naruto didn't know whether these tourists came here sincerely, or whether they had the same mentality as Jiraiya, and came here to look for the shrine maiden to exorcise demons and conduct so-called life consultation.

"Are you really planning to collect materials here?"

Naruto made no secret of his disdain.

"No way, the country of ghosts doesn't even have a custom shop. If you want to get materials, you can only start from here. And when you come to the country of ghosts, the first thing you think of is the shrine, and when you think of the shrine, you will naturally think of witches."

I also talked about my own experience.

"ha"

Naruto let out a long breath.

Compared with these things, he still finds cultivation a little more interesting.

"Then hurry up and collect materials, and then accompany me to practice."

"Don't worry, it's already here, at least leave after soaking in the hot spring. Only in this way can I be able to think like a spring and be inspired."

Jiraiya spoke while leading Naruto forward.

"It's you, Uzumaki Naruto."

Before passing through the torii gate that looked like the main entrance, with shimenawa rope tied, Naruto heard such a sentence in his ear.

I saw two young girls on the side of the road, wearing red and white priestess costumes, with their hair **** with a white headband, and one of them was talking to him.

"Who are you"

Naruto looked at the two of them.

"Hana Haruka, we met at the ninja shop last night."

The braided girl in a priestess costume smiled at Naruto.

"Oh, I remembered. But, why are you here? Don't you work in a ninja shop?"

Naruto asked.

"It's just a part-time job there occasionally, just like I'm part-time job at the shrine today. In addition, this is Hibiki Kirie, a teammate of mine. You should have seen it in the qualifiers. Like you, they are all jinn who participated in the finals."

Hana Haruka introduces to Naruto the girl in witch costume who keeps her eyes closed.

"I know her, that strange witch who can summon octopuses to fight."

Naruto pointed at the fog branch and remembered something.

The other party controlled the octopus-like tentacles to fight, which left a deep impression on him.

"Octopus? That's... uh, forget it, let's take it as an octopus."

Regarding the monsters, even if outsiders heard it, they probably wouldn't understand, so Hanami Haruka didn't intend to correct it.

"Do you know each other?"

Jiraiya stepped in at this time.

Glanced at the chests of Hua Jianyao and Wuzhi, and suddenly lost interest.

Sure enough, the little girl didn't have much information, and she was a mature and loving witch, so she could really get rid of the 'filth' in his heart.

"Yes, they are the ninjas of the kingdom of ghosts."

Naruto replied.

"Do you want to endure?"

I am also thoughtful when I come here.

Sure enough, the connection between the Oni Country military and the shrine is very close.

Different from wandering shrine maidens who are scattered outside, the shrine maidens who practice in shrines are the real shrine maidens, who will use witchcraft that is different from the ninja system.

Such an existence has never been encountered by Jiraiya, so I don't know the difference between witchcraft and ninjutsu.

However, he didn't delve into this issue.

On the table in front of the two girls, there was a box with the words "Bong Sa" written on it, and there was a small opening for putting things into it.

I also know that this is the so-called money box, which is a way for the shrine to raise money.

"So, you two, do you want to test your fate with this shrine? If you prove your fate, you can soak in the hot spring here. It's the hot spring that the shrine maidens used to soak in."

Saying that, Hanami Haruka picked up the money box, walked up to Jiraiya and Naruto, and asked with a smile.

After a while of silence, Naruto felt a little embarrassed to be stared at by Hana Haruka, so he took out his wallet, took out a one thousand tael bill from it, and stuffed it into the money box.

Hanami Haruka's smile didn't change, and she turned to Jiraiya.

"Naruto-kun has a good relationship with our shrine here. So, what about this guest? Do you want to test the relationship?"

Zilai also thought about it, took out a stack of banknotes from his arms, and put them on the money box.

Hanami Haruka opened her mouth wide in surprise.

"It seems that this gentleman is more related to the shrine than Naruto-kun."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Naruto always feels that the smile on Hanami Haruka's face seems to be even bigger.

Feeling a little upset, obviously he also invested money.

"Haha, the little girl is really eloquent. Then, you can do your work here, and Naruto and I will go in and visit first."

Jilai also waved his hand, leading Naruto to walk in.

After Jiraiya and Naruto left, the smile on Hanami Haruka's face disappeared immediately.

"One of the Sannin... is really a troublesome guy. Is he here to spy on information?"

Although she knew that Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, was also very lustful, but it was impossible for a ninja of this level to spy on information because of a woman's mistake.

The other party often hangs around in the market custom shop, which is also the same reason.

Because there are enough low-level people there, although the news is mixed, it is better than the amount. Women in the customs industry will deal with all kinds of people, so it can be said that they can see all directions.

Zilai can also obtain a large amount of information there, find key things from it, and organize and edit them.

Therefore, Hanami Haruka dared not be careless in the face of such a powerful ninja who looked out of character but was extremely meticulous in his heart.

If you are not careful, you may be fooled by the other party.

"It seems that there is no way to carry out the exorcism ceremony immediately. After they leave, let's start at night."

Hanami Haruka said to Wuzhi.

Wuzhi nodded, she also knew that Zilai was also a troublesome person.

Although he is not afraid, he cannot drive the other party out for no reason. And paying such a large amount is obviously used as a hush money.

Tricky adults.

"Okay, then we will part here."

On the other side, Jiraiya, who brought Naruto into the shrine, said suddenly.

"What?"

"Next, I have work to collect materials. Don't you plan to follow me all the time? Although I have no problem, there are some things that may not be suitable for children."

Zilai also smiled.

"You really want to do something unscrupulous!"

"What are unscrupulous things? I am collecting materials. I am collecting materials. In order to create better novels, it is understandable to do so. Well, you can go to the hot springs by yourself next time. The matter of cultivation, we will talk about it at night."

He waved his hands in distaste when he came, and then fixed his eyes on a young witch who walked past, and immediately showed a lewd smile.

"Hey, Miss Miko over there, please wait a moment!"

Saying that, Ji Laiya ran out, left Naruto aside, and ignored him.

"Damn it, this **** is a lecherous fairy!"

Watching Jiraiya catch up with the miko and leave, Naruto puffed out his mouth in dissatisfaction, feeling very depressed.

As time passed, the sun began to set, and the distant sky was dyed fiery red by the setting sun.

In front of a room in the shrine, Naruto stood here a little restlessly, as if he was waiting for someone.

Finally, when he was getting impatient, Ji Lai also walked over with a red face. Judging from the expression on his face, he probably drank a lot of wine and his face was red.

It is estimated that I spent a beautiful afternoon with the priestess of the shrine.

Looking at Jiraiya who arrived so late, Naruto finally broke out the resentment in his stomach.

"It's almost dark, why did you come here now, lecherous fairy?"

"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the miko lady here is so enthusiastic, it just makes me linger."

Jiraiya scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly at Naruto.

"Pervert! Anyway, you are just staring at the woman's figure and squinting!"

"It's all said to be a source. Besides, don't you also take a hot spring here? The hot spring here is very good, it is said that it is natural water, which can effectively relieve fatigue."

Zilai also said.

"In this case, hurry up and continue to practice with me, you have already wasted three hours!"

Naruto pointed at Jiraiya, filled with righteous indignation.

Originally, he didn't have much time to practice, but now he wasted a little time by Jiraiya, which made Naruto feel a little anxious.

He attaches great importance to the finals a few days later, and he doesn't want to lose the chain at this time.

"I said why are you so irritable, this is a shrine, at least you should speak softly."

"Not because you wasted so much time."

"I just want you to relax."

And drop by here to gather intel.

Of course, Jiraiya would not say the latter sentence to Naruto.

Besides, at the shrine today, I couldn't get any useful information from the witches. Not only did these witches keep their mouths shut, but they almost molested him back, which made Jilai quite depressed and spent a lot of money for it.

"I don't have time to relax right now."

Hearing what Naruto said, Jiraiya also sighed.

"What a brat who doesn't understand life. Well, come with me."

As he spoke, he walked towards a small path without waiting for Naruto to respond.

"Wait, that's not the way down the mountain."

Naruto followed and shouted loudly.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and come here, it's faster to go down here."

Jilai also said without looking back, walking faster.

Although Naruto was puzzled, he followed closely.

After about a few minutes, the path finally came to an end.

In front of you is a small platform built on the mountainside, protected by guardrails and surrounded by a tree shade, it is a relatively hidden place in the shrine.

From here, you can not only see the sinking sunset, but also have a panoramic view of the No. 4 exercise site below.

"What are you doing here, lecherous fairy? There is no way down the mountain here."

Naruto walked to the side of the guardrail and asked puzzledly.

Jilai also ignored Naruto's doubts, but smiled and said: "Why, have you relaxed? The scenery here is beautiful, right?"

Beauty is beauty, but it's not traveling now.

"Really? But for you, this may be the last scene of your life. So, let's stay in love for a while."

"Huh? What did you say?"

It seemed that he didn't understand Jiraiya's meaning, and Naruto froze in place.

Naruto froze in place, but Jiraiya didn't froze, but put his palm on Naruto's back, and said with a kind smile:

"I mean, you can die now."

After finishing speaking, push hard.

"Yeah! What are you doing!"

Amidst the panicked screams, Naruto's body directly smashed into the guardrail, and his body flew out in a parabola, and there was no point in the air to focus on. If he fell from this height, even a ninja would be crushed to death.

As Naruto's body continued to descend, the screams of panic gradually became inaudible.

After about ten seconds, there was a bang.

In the giant tree forest at the foot of the mountain, a terrible vibration suddenly erupted.

A huge toad the size of a hill appeared without warning on the forest land below. Its appearance directly pressed a big hole in the ground, and the surrounding trees were also crushed.

The air waves caused by , like tangible ripples, spread towards the surroundings.

"Sure enough...after experiencing strong emotional stimulation, Naruto will subconsciously use Nine-Tails' Chakra."

Looking at the huge toad that appeared in the forest, the corners of Jiraiya's mouth curled up slightly.

"That guy, Minato, is really amazing. He used the gossip seal combined with the double four-element seal to slowly guide the power of the nine tails to Naruto..."

Thinking of this, Jiraiya showed a trace of nostalgia in his eyes.

Seeing Naruto who successfully summoned the General of Miaogi Mountain Toad Bunta with the Kyuubi Chakra, Jiraiya put away the nostalgia in his eyes, and the expression on his face appeared calm, as if he was confirming something.

"The son of prophecy... could it be him? The blue-eyed boy who played with nine wild beasts in the mouth of the big toad fairy..."

Nine beasts, Zilai is also easy to understand.

Even if the big toad sage didn't say it directly, Jilai also knew that he was referring to the nine-headed and tailed beast.

The son of prophecy who can be recognized by the nine-headed and tailed beast will become a key force to guide the world.

Looking at the immature boy below, for some reason, all the pressure dissipated.

It seems that my persistence for so many years is not meaningless, but it has finally blossomed and bears fruit, and I have the motivation to continue to persist in my beliefs.

This world needs a savior who can change the ninja world.

The world cannot be left in chaos any longer.

"Next, you just need to guide the Son of Prophecy on the right track..."

In Jiraiya's eyes, a flash of determination flashed.
