Orochimaru, running away with a bucket

"Can't answer?"

Orochimaru looked at the troubled Jiraiya and snorted, "You once said that the Great Toad Sage dreamed that you would go to Myoboku Mountain."

"Yes, that's right."

"Perhaps the Great Toad Immortal's predictions are accurate, but I believe that predictions are merely one possibility for the future. What your future will be like depends on your choices. Your choices determine your future, not the Great Toad Immortal's predictions. The Great Toad Immortal's predictions can only be used as a reference; you shouldn't let them influence your choices."

Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya who was lost in thought. In the original work, Jiraiya was more like a tool controlled by the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage.

"If the Great Toad Sage predicted that you would kill a swaddled baby, and that baby would become a villain who destroyed the ninja world in the future, what would you do? Would you go find that baby and kill him?"

"I……"

Jiraiya had trouble answering Orochimaru's hypothetical question.

Orochimaru looked at the silent Jiraiya, frowning, a trace of displeasure flashing across his face, and then asked, "If the prophecy tells you to do something, then you do it. Jiraiya, did you walk the path you created yourself, or was it paved for you by the 'prophecy'?"

"I, I am Jiraiya-sama! Of course I have to go my own way!"

Jiraiya almost shouted this sentence, but it sounded a little lacking in confidence.

"whispering sound!"

Orochimaru glanced at Jiraiya with disdain. He didn't know which 250 people lost their lives because of a prophecy.

Volume 25: Chapter : Discussion

"Hey! What's that look, what's that expression!"

Jiraiya clenched his fists and jumped up and down in anger.

"Do you really have to make me say it?"

There was a hint of disgust in Orochimaru's eyes.

"Orochimaru, you're such an infuriating guy!"

Jiraiya punched him angrily.

Orochimaru dodged Jiraiya's fist by leaning sideways, grabbed his wrist with one hand, held his arm with the other, and threw Jiraiya out with an over-the-shoulder throw.

"hateful!"

Jiraiya landed on the ground in a prone position and got up from the ground.

"Is this the extent of your training at Myoboku Mountain?" Orochimaru waved at Jiraiya, "Let me see the results of your training during this period."

"Alright! I also want to experience just how powerful that genius that Sarutobi-sensei talks about is!"

Jiraiya waved his hands and threw shurikens, forming seals with both hands.

That seal is fire escape?

Tsunade looked at Jiraiya's hand seals and recognized that he was going to use Fire Release.

Orochimaru held a kunai and shot down the flying shuriken, and saw Jiraiya's hands forming hand seals.

Fire escape?

"Fire Release·Fire Bullet!"

Jiraiya condensed his chakra into oil and held it in his mouth, then used fire escape to spit out flame bullets from his mouth.

"Tu Dun·Tu Liubi!"

Orochimaru held a kunai in his mouth, quickly formed seals with his hands, and slapped the ground. The earth wall rising from the ground blocked the blazing fire bomb, which was particularly terrifying in terms of burning.

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

Orochimaru jumped onto the earth wall and quickly formed five seals with his hands. The five seals were completed almost in an instant. The water gushing out from the bottom of the earth wall swallowed up the fire bomb like a small waterfall.

Stab it--!

The flames went out and white steam rose up. Tsunade jumped onto the trunk of a big tree nearby to avoid being affected by the battle between the two.

Orochimaru shook his head and threw a kunai, then stepped on the water and rushed towards Jiraiya.

Water Array Wall... As expected, Orochimaru has also mastered this water-style ninjutsu!

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen used the telescope technique of the crystal ball to see the battle taking place in the training ground. No, it would be more accurate to say it was a brief exchange of ideas rather than a battle.

Jiraiya has grown in every aspect... Is this the result of his training at Myoboku Mountain?

Orochimaru used his arm to block Jiraiya's kick. The two of them collided with fists and feet several times in a short period of time, and the water under their feet splashed with water.

"Have you seen the results of Jiraiya-sama's training?"

Jiraiya said with a smug look on his face.

"Yeah……"

Orochimaru showed a sly smile on his face, and the sound of thunder and lightning rang out.

"Orochimaru...you..."

Jiraiya saw the lightning flashing in Orochimaru's palm, his eyes widened, and he looked at the water created by water jutsu everywhere around him.

"Lightning Release: Five Finger Thunder Bomb!"

Orochimaru jumped up, and lightning condensed at the fingertips of his five fingers to form a lightning bullet, which was launched. The moment the extremely fast lightning bullet touched the water surface, it was transmitted to Jiraiya.

"Whoaaah!"

Jiraiya's body flashed with lightning, his hair exploded, and he fell to the ground with smoke coming out.

"Ah! Jiraiya, are you okay?"

Tsunade looked at the fallen Jiraiya, jumped off the branch, and ran to his side.

"Don't worry, Jiraiya isn't hurt."

Orochimaru walked over. It wasn't a life-and-death fight, so how could she possibly use such heavy hands?

"Orochimaru, you're going too far!"

Jiraiya, with his afro, looked at Orochimaru with resentment, "Look at what my hair has become! The pretty girls in the village will definitely not want to get close to me! Jiraiya-sama's handsome image!"

It's as if your hair is fine you will attract beautiful older sisters.

Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya's funny appearance and tried hard to hold back his laughter.

With his head of white hair, he now looks just like the ones in the Zangai Family. No, everyone in the Zangai Family has to call him "Big Brother" when they see him.

"Handsome? You, a pervert, are handsome?"

Tsunade listened to Jiraiya's extremely narcissistic words and looked at him in disbelief.

"Your chest is as flat as the pavement of Mingcha Street, what do you know? I'm very popular with beautiful older sisters..."

boom--!

Before Jiraiya could finish his words, Tsunade, who had a dark face, punched him away.

Wow, flying so high!

Orochimaru looked up at Jiraiya who was sent spiraling into the sky by Tsunade's punch.

After being knocked away by Tsunade so many times, he really has no memory at all!

"Develop...develop Lightning Release Ninjutsu?!"

Jiraiya, whose left cheek was swollen, looked at Tsunade with eyes full of fear and apprehension when he knew that she was developing a lightning-style ninjutsu that could increase the power of her fists.

Tsunade's beatings are already so painful, if she develops lightning-style ninjutsu...

Jiraiya's mind flashed with the image of Tsunade, who became even more terrifying with the help of Lightning Release, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

Otherwise, don’t provoke Tsunade in the future, it will really kill people!

"Hmm? What are you thinking about?"

Tsunade seemed to sense something and stared at Jiraiya with a bad look on her face.

"Nothing, nothing, nothing!"

Jiraiya raised his hands and shook his head.

Night, Senju Mansion.

There were many things related to gambling in Tsunade's room. Two dice pillows were thrown casually on the bed, and a thick pile of books was placed on the desk.

In order to complete the technique that Orochimaru mentioned, one needs to understand which acupoints can be stimulated to speed up the flow of chakra, and which acupoints will have an impact on the body when stimulated.

Tsunade didn't want to have any problems developing her own Lightning Release Ninjutsu, and she also wanted to show Orochimaru that she was a genius who was no less than her.

"Tsuna, you're still working so hard even at this late hour."

Uzumaki Mito walked into Tsunade's room and saw the books on her desk. She asked curiously, "Didn't you say you were going to practice Lightning Release Ninjutsu recently?"

"I want to develop a lightning ninjutsu of my own, a lightning ninjutsu that only I, who is good at medical ninjutsu, can use!"

Tsunade showed a confident smile on her face and excitedly told her grandmother why she wanted to develop her own lightning-style ninjutsu.

"So that's how it is, Tsuna. I believe you can succeed."

Uzumaki Mito smiled kindly and touched Tsunade's head. She admired Orochimaru, a mature child, even more. She had the ability to sense good and evil, and had never felt any malice from Orochimaru.

It is not difficult to see from the way the two get along that Tsunade is the one being taken care of.

Tsunade is his granddaughter, and Uzumaki Mito knows her very well.

Most people fear her, partly because her grandfather was the first Hokage, and partly because of her violent temper and the unique strength of the Senju clan.

Among Tsunade's peers in Konoha, it seems that only Orochimaru can play with her.

Mito Uzumaki didn't bother Tsunade and slowly exited her room.

The cold moonlight shone through the window onto the floor. Orochimaru was sitting on the bed, holding the white snake's slough in a glass box in his hand.

"Lucky and reborn?"

In this world, it is impossible to become stronger without accessing the Sage Mode, and the only way for her to access the Sage Mode is through the three major holy places of inheritance.

Maybe I have another way.

Hashirama Senju's Sage Mode does not belong to the three major holy places of inheritance. It should have been developed by him. As he is good at Wood Release, it should be easier for him to come into contact with natural energy.

Is Hashirama Senju's Sage Mode related to Ashura?

Volume 26: Chapter The adult world is too dirty!

"After a tiring day, a relaxing bath is the only way to relieve fatigue!"

"Who said it wasn't? The one in my house..."

The women's bathhouse was filled with mist, and the women gathered together to chat about various topics, and the conversation turned to their men.

Orochimaru is so strong!

I trained for so long in Myoboku Mountain, but I still couldn't beat her.

When Jiraiya was squatting outside the women's bathhouse and peeping into the bathhouse, all he was thinking about was the battle during the day. He thought that his growth was enough to impress Tsunade and Orochimaru, but in the end, he was still far from it.

"Oil Shrimp! After completing the mission, I will practice even harder!"

Jiraiya clenched his fists and decided to train even harder.

"who!"

"Aaaaaaah! There's a pervert!"

"Aaaaaah! Pervert!"

No, not good!

Jiraiya left in a hurry. After he left, ferocious women rushed out of the women's bathhouse holding basins, ladles and other things that could be used as weapons.

Tansho Street is a large red-light district located in the southwest of the Land of Fire. It is full of casinos, hotels and entertainment venues. It is also the place where ninjas are most likely to violate the three prohibitions.

Tanaka Castle, located on Tanaka Street, is a cultural heritage of the Land of Fire. It is said to have a very long history. Many people come to Tanaka Street to visit this ancient city.

After completing the mission of wiping out the bandit gang entrenched in the border of the Land of Fire, on the way back to Konoha, Orochimaru witnessed with his own eyes how Jiraiya used the transformation technique to sneak into the hotel, and then she was dragged to the casino by Tsunade, who was addicted to gambling.

As expected, Tsunade lost everything, while Orochimaru, who joined the gambling, won big. Those who won over suspected her of cheating, but they tried many methods but could not find any evidence of her cheating, so they had to give up.
