Chapter 77: Chapter 77, Training Alone.
"Train well, there will be plenty of opportunities to do missions together in the future."
Looking at Jiraiya, Raijin couldn't help but speak.
In the entire squad Jiraiya was left alone when everyone doing a mission.
It's make Jiraiaya hard to accept this.
Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Raijin, didn't say much, and continued.
"Let's talk about the target of this mission, which everyone has seen, Land of Hot Water, Purple Lightning organization branch, Muramasa, a strong taijutsu user in the battle, proficient in Lightning Release Chakra Mode, once one of the candidates for the AB combination."
"Do we only have our team?"
Upon hearing this, Raijin asked Sarutobi Hiruzen. If it's just one team going on this mission, it would be akin to suicide.
"Of course not, Kumogakure has issued missions to Sunagakure, Iwagakure, Konohagakure, and Kirigakure."
Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Raijin.
"I see..."
Upon hearing this, Raijin nodded. It must be said that no one is a fool. Originally, Konohagakure chose to let Muramasa return to the village in order to add bargaining chips to the negotiation table with Purple Lightning organization and Kumogakure.
Now, Konohagakure's goal has been achieved. If Kumogakure wants to solve the problem of Purple Lightning organization while ensuring that not too many people in the village die, it must seek help from outside.
And choosing to issue missions to four hidden villages at the same time, in this way, the benefits will be shared, and there will be no situation where a certain village completely surpasses Kumogakure, thus forming a countermeasure against Kumogakure with Kumogakure's money.
But overall, Konohagakure still made a profit, it's just a matter of how much, and how much is a lot?
"This mission is S-rank misssion."
Finally, Sarutobi Hiruzen announced the rank of this mission.
And this is also the reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't want to take Jiraiya out of the village.
Relatively speaking, it's too dangerous. Even though Jiraiya has grown a lot in the past half year and has surpassed the level of a newly graduated Genin.
But, Jiraiya is still not good enough.
Like Tsunade, her current strength is not weaker than a special Jonin, and her medical Ninjutsu can play a pivotal role at critical moments.
Orochimaru, who is very proficient in Ninjutsu, may have a little gap with the special Jonin, but for the average Chunin, conservatively estimated, Orochimaru can fight three chuunin.
Raijin's strength has completely surpassed the special Jonin. If you ignore the experience, you can already look at Raijin as a Jonin.
Only Jiraiya's strength that have a wide gap with other.
Perhaps Jiraiya can play a small role in other team.
But Jiraiya seems a bit inadequate in this team.
Letting Jiraiya stay in the village is to allow Jiraiya to grow better, on the other hand, it is also a kind of protection for Jiraiya.
The rank of this mission alone is impossible for Jiyara to do this mission.
So, Sarutobi Hiruzen can only arrange this way.
"So, everyone rest for two days, adjust your state, and set off after three days."
Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and said to everyone, then turned and left.
"Aren't you going to practice today?"
Raijin looked around, looking at Tsunade beside him and Orochimaru opposite him.
"I've been practicing for half a year, and I'm almost dead..."
Jiraiya suddenly lay down on the ground.
"I also want to rest."
Tsunade sighed faintly and fell on Raijin.
"What should I do today?"
Seeing this, Orochimaru asked Raijin.
"Shall we buy some food and eat here?"
Raijin, stroking Tsunade's hair that was lying on his lap, spoke to Orochimaru.
"Alright, I'll buy"
Orochimaru glanced at Tsunade and spoke to Raijin.
"Alright, thank you."
Raijin smiled and spoke to Orochimaru.
"I'll go too!"
Jiraiya stood up and spoke to Orochimaru. Jiraiya could be alone with Raijin or Tsunade, but he didn't want to be alone with both Raijin and Tsunade.
It's hurt his eyes.
...
Soon, Jiraiya and Orochimaru came back with a lot of food.
Jiraiya was also carrying a small table.
Patting Tsunade's back, Tsunade, who was drowsy, got up from Raijin's body. With her eyebrows slightly furrowed, Tsunade looked around the environment in a somewhat confused manner.
Her hair was a bit messy, and her face was clean and white. She looked hazy and pure.
After helping Tsunade tidy up her hair, Raijin pulled Tsunade to sit next to the small table.
Just as everyone was about to start eating, Raijin suddenly looked at Jiraiya.
"Do you want to become stronger?"
Raijin asked Jiraiya.
"I do."
Jiraiya was holding a plain meatball in his hand. It was the kind that was fried in oil and had a thick layer of salty sauce.
Hearing Jiraiya's words, Raijin directly took the meatball that Jiraiya hadn't had time to eat from his hand.
"Then why don't you take the opportunity to train hard while we're eating?"
Raijin took a bite of the meatball and asked Jiraiya in confusion.
"Huh?"
Jiraiya was startled, looked at Raijin, and then looked at the abundant food on the table.
"Everyone else will be going out on a mission, and you're the only one staying back in the village. Don't you feel any pressure?"
Before Jiraiya finished speaking, Raijin continued to ask him.
"I..."
Jiraiya felt as if a knife had been plunged into his chest. He wanted to refute something, but he couldn't find a point to refute.
"Sigh... If I were you, I definitely wouldn't be able to eat this meal."
Raijin sighed and spoke with a look of regret.
"But..."
Jiraiya spoke somewhat unwillingly. Even if it's training, shouldn't you at least eat before training?
"If I haven't even mastered a B-rank Ninjutsu at the age of twelve. If I were in the Uchiha family, I probably wouldn't even have food to eat."
"You wouldn't be able to eat in the Senju family either."
Tsunade, with one hand holding a rice ball and her chin on Raijin's shoulder, chewed on the rice ball in her mouth while staring straight at Jiraiya.
"After we leave, Jiraiya won't just stop training, will he?"
Orochimaru bit a skewer of meat and said quietly.
"How..."
"Sigh... Who can say? Compared to enjoyment, training is indeed a bit tiring."
Raijin shook his head somewhat helplessly upon hearing this.
"Don't you understand? If I were Jiraiya, I would definitely choose to train. After all, resting at home is always less interesting than training."
As his words fell, the three of them stopped talking and just silently watched Jiraiya.
After a long time...
"Sigh... You guys rest first, I'm going to train."
Jiraiya resignedly stood up.
"Just do it here, we'll watch you."
Raijin nodded upon hearing this, and with a smile on his face, he spoke to Jiraiya.
"We'll give you some advice."
Tsunade nodded.
"After all, we're all teammates."
Orochimaru also said to Jiraiya with a smile on his face.
Heh... well, thank you very much!
