Sarutobi Hiruzen has considered Jiraiya as his successor.
It's a great thing that Jiraiya can obtain the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique and increase his strength!
Anyway, Jiraiya's Will of Fire is extremely strong, and his sense of belonging and identity with the village is extremely high.
It is impossible to do anything that is detrimental to the interests of the village.
And another point is that Jiraiya has mastered the Uzumaki clan's sealing secrets. If you round it off, doesn't that mean he has mastered the Uzumaki clan's sealing secrets?
As long as he asks Jiraiya for it, I believe Jiraiya will not refuse him.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was also very interested in the Uzumaki clan's sealing secrets.
When attacking the Land of Whirlpools, some Konoha ninjas also joined in hiding their identities, with the aim of stealing the powerful sealing technique.
However, the ninjas of the Land of Whirlpools realized the danger was coming in advance, and had already transferred the important sealing scrolls and clansmen.
Therefore, after the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools, the major ninja villages only obtained some simple sealing techniques, and they did not get the real sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan.
Sarutobi Hiruzen has always known that the Uzumaki Mito holds the truly powerful sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan, but the Nine Tails are sealed inside the Uzumaki Mito, so even if he wanted to obtain these sealing techniques, he didn't dare to force it.
Now that Uzumaki Mito has taken the initiative to hand over the sealing technique to Jiraiya, it can be said to be a pleasant surprise.
This way, he would be able to learn these sealing techniques in the future.
In the original work, Sarutobi Hiruzen learned the Shikigami Sealing Technique from Uzumaki Shinkunai.
Uzumaki Shinkunai learned the sealing technique from Uzumaki Mito.
Uzumaki Shinkunai was brought to Konoha Village and lived with Uzumaki Mito for a while.
"Teacher, I want to learn the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique."
Jiraiya stated the purpose to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Why do you want to learn this jutsu? This jutsu requires a large amount of Chakra to perform. If you are not careful, you will die from chakra depletion. When the Second Hokage created this jutsu, he created it based on his own chakra and did not consider those ninjas with scarce chakra."
Hearing that Jiraiya wanted to learn the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a serious look on his face.
Since he took office, Sarutobi Hiruzen has also found some ninjas with abundant Chakra to practice this technique, but without exception, all of these ninjas died due to the depletion of Chakra.
Therefore, this ninjutsu was listed as a Forbidden Technique, and Konoha Shinobi were strictly prohibited from learning it.
Jiraiya is a genius whom he values very much. Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally does not want to let Jiraiya come into contact with this dangerous ninjutsu. If an accident occurs and leads to Jiraiya's death, it will definitely be a huge loss for Konoha.
Therefore, when Senju Tobirama created this ninjutsu, he did not take into account the ninjas with too little chakra in their bodies.
"Sensei, I have heard of the dangers of this jutsu, but the amount of Chakra contained in my body is far greater than that of an ordinary Jōnin, and the two Great Toad Sages of Mount Myōboku were also amazed at the Chakra in my body and said that I am still a Sage Body."
Jiraiya spoke up, now that he was no longer going to hide the fact that he had a Sage Body.
After all, he now has the ability to protect himself, and he is not afraid of anyone using him for research.
Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen attacks him personally now, Jiraiya will not fight back. After he enters Sage Mode, even if he cannot defeat Sarutobi Hiruzen, he will have no problem escaping from Sarutobi Hiruzen.
And Jiraiya believed that Sarutobi Hiruzen would not be able to do anything to him.
"What?"
When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard Jiraiya say that he had a Sage Body, he was shocked. He stood up from his office chair and looked at Jiraiya with wide eyes!
"I don't know what a Sage Body is, but the two sage seniors from Mount Myōboku said I have this physique."
Jiraiya replied.
Jiraiya's strength improved by leaps and bounds, and Sarutobi, Hiruzen, and Danzo all speculated that Jiraiya had awakened some kind of Bloodline.
But after their long observation, Jiraiya did not use his special Bloodline ability.
It left them clueless and feeling very strange.
But if Jiraiya awakened the Sage Body, then everything can be explained.
Senju Hashirama, who founded Konoha and was known as the God of Ninja, had this physique.
Although most of Senju Hashirama's strength lies in Wood Style, Sage Body also contributes.
Now, after being shocked, Sarutobi Hiruzen was ecstatic in his heart. Jiraiya has now awakened his Sage Body, and he will definitely be an extremely terrifying existence when he grows up, even if he cannot be comparable to Senju Hashirama.
It can definitely grow to a height that people look up to.
It will definitely allow Konoha to develop to a higher level.
Become an unforgettable hero.
And as Jiraiya's mentor, he will definitely receive high praise.
"Since the immortal of Mount Myōboku said that you are a Sage Body, then it must be correct. You are now qualified to practice the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique."
Sarutobi Hiruzen suppressed the joy in his heart, sat back in his chair and said.
The biggest feature of Sage Body is that it contains a lot of Chakras.
It must be enough to practice multiple Shadow Clone Techniques.
Sarutobi Hiruzen summoned a scroll and threw it to Jiraiya, saying seriously, "This is what is recorded on it. After you learn it, you must not pass it on to others without my permission."
"Don't worry, teacher. I will never give the multiple Shadow Clone to anyone else."
Jiraiya took the scroll, opened it, memorized the practice method on it, and put the scroll back on the table.
"You just returned from training at Mount Myōboku. Get some rest tonight and leave early tomorrow morning to carry out this mission."
"I believe no one can accomplish that task better than you."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said as he pulled out another quest scroll.
Jiraiya took the mission scroll and opened it, and saw that it was an exploration mission to the border.
Apparently Sarutobi Hiruzen also knew that the Sage Body had extremely strong perception abilities.
As he said, no ninja could be more qualified for the task than him.
"I've been asking you to go visit your master's wife, but you never went. Come to my house and sit for a while now."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Jiraiya with a smile.
