Naruto raised his head and looked at the person on the roof making strange laughter. White hair, a red outer garment, and a large scroll on his back, he was squatting on the roof, peeping.
Wasn't this Jiraiya, who had drifted so far in the ninja world that he'd lost contact?
Naruto's gaze followed the roof down to the front of the door. The women's bathhouse, okay, the scene matched.
In broad daylight, under the clear sky, Naruto, as a good youth of the new era who valued the five loves and four beauties, certainly couldn't condone such immoral behavior.
But he was afraid of being seen as an accomplice if he went directly, so he hid in a corner, created a Shadow Clone, pointed in Jiraiya's direction, and said, "Take care of him!"
"Yes, sir!" The clone saluted, then transformed into Naruko and turned to leave.
"Hey—" Naruto collapsed, "Do you have to turn into this?"
Naruko gave a "charming smile" and asked, "Then who do you want me to turn into? Asuna? Or Artoria? It can't be Sako, right?"
Naruto slapped his forehead: "Who you turn into doesn't matter, what I mean is—can you fix your clothes!"
Naruko looked down and saw no holy light: "Oops, careless...
How did I end up wearing Pinru's clothes."
...
Naruko changed into a pretty little dress and walked towards the bathhouse.
After brewing some emotion at the door, she screamed, "Eek~~~~ There's a pervert peeping!"
Naruto wanted to cover his ears: "This penetrating power, do I have a talent for dolphin sounds?"
"Crap!" Jiraiya was also startled by the sudden high-pitched sound, slipped, and rolled off the roof, landing headfirst.
Then, as if nothing had happened, he leaped up. He truly had a body that could take a punch from Tsunade!
Immediately afterward, various screams and roars rang out from inside the bathhouse.
Jiraiya, who was about to run away, saw Naruko and his eyes went straight: "Oh, this, this..."
Naruko gave him a look of grief and indignation, then created a Rasengan and happily killed herself.
I look at you once and you want to commit suicide? Jiraiya seemed to have suffered a huge blow, frozen in place until a wooden basin flew out of the bathhouse and hit him on the head, then he came back to his senses and ran away.
Leaving the danger zone, Jiraiya walked along, pinching his chin with one hand: "That technique just now, was that Minato's Rasengan? The color of that hair, could it be that Minato had another daughter?"
As Jiraiya walked, he lightly jumped, dodging a leg that tried to trip him.
"Oh ho, the old pervert is quite agile!" Naruto watched him playfully with his arms crossed.
Jiraiya sized Naruto up, golden hair, blue eyes, as if he saw Minato as a child.
Plus this undisguised Chakra, so much that it was as bright as a light bulb in the night, this kid must be Minato and Kushina's child.
Jiraiya looked serious: "The one who tricked me just now was your Shadow Clone, right? To use the Transformation Technique and Shadow Clone like that, it's really..."
As he spoke, Jiraiya's expression suddenly turned comical, and he put his arm around Naruto's shoulder: "It's really great! Hey, hey, how did you think of that? Also, what's your name?"
"Ew~" Naruto pushed Jiraiya away in disgust, wanting to say, 'Say my name, and I'll scare you,' but it was too embarrassing, so he gave up:
"My name is Uzumaki Naruto! Also, shouldn't you introduce yourself before asking others?"
"Good question!" Jiraiya hopped back, formed a hand seal, and slammed his hand on the ground, summoning a large toad as tall as a person beneath his feet.
Jiraiya swung his long hair around, stepped forward with his right foot, and spread the fingers of his left hand, striking a pose.
"I am the Toad Spirit Immortal Su Taoist from Mount Myoboku, commonly known as the Toad Sage, Jiraiya is the name!"
Naruto quietly watched his performance, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Jiraiya had brought Ren Ming of the previous life a lot of laughter, and also tricked Ren Ming out of many tears.
Ren Ming had always felt that Jiraiya was a contradictory person.
If you said he was a bad person, he was kind and brave, willing to risk his life for the village.
If you said he was a good person, he could swindle Naruto's pocket money to go drinking.
If you said he was a womanizer, he waited for Tsunade for decades, and didn't agree even when beautiful women offered themselves to him.
But if you said he was devoted, he frequented the red-light districts, peeping in various bathhouses and hot springs.
If you said he was great, he didn't seem to have any noteworthy achievements, and even the title of the Sannin was obtained almost as a handout after the three of them fought Hanzo.
But if you said he was ordinary, the disciples he taught were all extraordinary, and if they stood together and stomped their feet, the entire ninja world would tremble three times.
"Looking back on my life, it's been nothing but failures..."
This was Jiraiya's final assessment of himself.
"A frog in a well, eventually reaching the great ocean."
Ren Ming never understood whether Jiraiya was being bold or helpless when he said these words.
But what really made Ren Ming like Jiraiya wasn't these words.
It was the scene of Jiraiya breaking a popsicle in half and handing it to Naruto.
Humans are strange creatures, sometimes laughing while crying, and sometimes crying while laughing.
Now that Jiraiya was standing alive in front of Naruto, thousands of words converged into one sentence:
"Oh, pervy sage."
"Poof!" The toad disappeared, and Jiraiya staggered. "It's Toad Sage! Toad Sage!"
Then he leaned closer. "Naruto, come, come, let's continue talking about your ninjutsu... hehe."
This old rascal, there's really no way to respect him as an elder!
Naruto said unhappily, "I've heard my parents talk about you."
"Oh? What did they say?"
"My dad said you were his most respected teacher, a remarkable ninja."
"Mm-hmm." Jiraiya coughed, trying to put on a serious face.
Naruto continued, "But my mom won't let me play with you."
"Eh??? Why?"
Jiraiya opened his mouth wide, Kushina, you've changed. Back when you and Minato told me that you wanted to name your child after the protagonist of my novel, you weren't like this!
"Because I was afraid you'd lead me astray!"
"There must be some misunderstanding here!" Jiraiya tried hard to defend his image.
"Indeed, I used to have my doubts, but after seeing it with my own eyes today, I'm finally convinced."
"How is it, how is it?" Jiraiya looked forward to a change of heart.
Naruto shook his head: "As expected, children should listen to their mothers.
So, I'm going home, goodbye, old pervert."
Naruto waved his hand, walked around the stunned Jiraiya, and headed home.
Jiraiya quickly turned around and chased after him: "Wait, wait for me, I was just about to visit your house too!"
"You're so annoying, old pervert."
"It's Sage, Sage!"
"Oh, pervy Sage."
In the evening, the golden sunlight shone on the streets and alleys of Konoha, shining on the two figures, one old and one young, stretching their shadows long, long
