Natsuki didn't expect such a pleasant surprise.
But he quickly understood. Jiraiya had seen the Flying Thunder God Technique and thought of his disciple, Minato Namikaze.
Originally, Natsuki just wanted to take it easy and be lazy, so he left the Flying Thunder God Technique on Naruto and planned to have fun in town for two days. He didn't expect it to trigger Jiraiya's memories.
This was good too. He needed sealing techniques.
"Thanks!"
He didn't hesitate to thank him. Anyone who helped him deserved a thank you.
But after saying that, he waved and left, not intending to stay any longer. Staying here would just be a waste of time. It was better to hurry to town and have fun.
"What an uncute brat!"
Jiraiya complained and also left for the town.
Kai also ignored Naruto and immediately started doing push-ups: "Yosh! I'll do ten thousand push-ups before dark today! If I can't do it, I'll punish myself with ten thousand squats!"
That was too reckless!
How was that any different from physically punishing himself?
Naruto didn't understand, but he was greatly shocked. However, his mind wasn't on this right now.
He turned his head and glanced at the technique mark on his shoulder. Actually, the technique mark was on his clothes, so he could just change clothes and it would be gone. He just didn't understand the purpose of this technique mark.
So he asked, "Bushy Brows sensei, what is this Flying Thunder God Technique, dattebayo?"
Kai continued doing push-ups, surprisingly counting while answering: "Oh, the Flying Thunder God Technique mark is the mark for the Flying Thunder God Technique. Simply put, the Flying Thunder God Technique is a move that only the Fourth Hokage knew. As long as you leave a mark in a certain location, you can instantly teleport to that mark anytime, anywhere. For example, if Natsuki is eating in Konoha right now, but as long as he's willing, he can instantly flash to your side, because he left a mark on your shoulder."
"It's that amazing, dattebayo!"
Naruto was extremely shocked. "How does Natsuki know the Fourth Hokage's move? Didn't the Fourth Hokage pass away a long time ago? Where did Natsuki learn it?"
Kai was still doing push-ups: "It's said that Raiton and Genma taught him. These two were the Fourth Hokage's guards. Well, the fact that they would pass the Flying Thunder God Technique to Natsuki means they must have recognized him. And just with Natsuki's Konoha Demon Blade title and his contributions during the previous village crisis, no one would object to him learning the Flying Thunder God Technique. As for him saying he hasn't fully mastered it, just listen to it. That guy has definitely learned it and is just being humble."
Hearing this, Naruto clenched his fists.
It wasn't that he was jealous of Natsuki or anything, but he was truly envious.
Moreover, he knew that Natsuki would become stronger and stronger. Now he had even learned such an incredible move, leaving his peers far behind.
Naruto already knew that his strength was far inferior to Natsuki's, but he wasn't the type to admit defeat.
He considered Natsuki a good friend, and since Natsuki was the same age and in the same class, he naturally didn't want to be left too far behind.
He had to work harder. So he shouted loudly: "Yosh! I won't sleep tonight! I'll definitely burst this water balloon!"
That's right, he was only at the water balloon stage of learning the Rasengan. Although fighting spirit was important, Naruto's talent at this time was truly uninspiring. Jiraiya even often complained in frustration that Naruto had no talent at all. If Naruto wasn't Minato's son, Jiraiya probably wouldn't even bother with him.
At this moment, Natsuki had already walked around the town and bought some delicious food to enjoy.
As for souvenirs, he didn't bother. This place wasn't far from Konoha, so there was no need to bring back any special products. In fact, the so-called special products here were pretty much the same as those in Konoha.
After eating and drinking well, Natsuki went to an inn and rented a room.
After entering the room and locking the doors and windows, he flashed into the Gravity Training Room and began his daily gravity training. It wasn't until a long time later that he finished, covered in sweat.
He used his mind to create a pool of water to take a bath, and only then did he open the scroll to read.
The scroll Jiraiya gave him contained only four sealing techniques: Five Elements Sealing, Four Symbols Seal, Evil Sealing Method, and Fire Sealing Method.
The Five Elements Sealing was the move Orochimaru used to completely isolate the Nine-Tails' Chakra. The Four Symbols Seal was the move Minato Namikaze used to seal the Nine-Tails. The Evil Sealing Method was the move Kakashi used to seal Orochimaru's curse mark. The Fire Sealing Method was the move Jiraiya used to seal the Amaterasu black flames earlier.
However, the four sealing techniques were actually equivalent to five.
Because two Four Symbols Seals equal the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style, which can perfectly seal the Nine-Tails.
Nine-Tails: What the heck! Are you all targeting me?!
Natsuki quietly read and learned. Although there were only a few, they were all advanced sealing techniques. If Natsuki hadn't already learned the basics and some low-level sealing techniques, he probably wouldn't be able to understand them now.
Natsuki never rejected anything useful.
Although ninjas primarily trained in Taijutsu, Ninjutsu, and Genjutsu, sealing techniques were also powerful.
Back in the day, the Whirlpool Clan was famous in the Ninja World for their incredibly high-level sealing techniques. However, later, the major villages launched a "borrowing technique" war against the Land of Whirlpools to seal the tailed beasts. The destruction of the Land of Whirlpools marked the downfall of the Whirlpool Clan, and their sealing techniques were divided among the major villages.
Otherwise, where did the sealing techniques used by the major villages to seal the tailed beasts come from now?
It couldn't have been created by a sudden genius, could it?
That history passed many years ago, and there was no use talking about it now. Moreover, the Land of Whirlpools had been destroyed, and the Whirlpool Clan probably only had Naruto, Karin, and Nagato left. Talking more was meaningless.
Xia 523 Mu continued reading the content of the sealing techniques. He didn't expect to reach bedtime so quickly.
Indeed, advanced sealing techniques were too difficult. It was unlikely to learn them in a short time, and Natsuki wasn't a genius in this area either. He could only spend time grinding it out. If worst came to worst, he would go back and ask Kakashi. In any case, Natsuki would not ask Jiraiya for guidance.
Before going to bed, he first sensed Naruto's location and found that he was still outside the town.
It seemed that guy was planning to train all night.
Natsuki didn't bother with that. He advised Sasuke to eat and sleep well, but he wouldn't persuade Naruto.
Because Naruto was stubborn; once he set his mind on something, he would desperately grind for experience points, and he really didn't have the talent. Besides grinding his teeth and working hard, he had no other choice. Fortunately, his Uzumaki physique was unique, coupled with the Nine-Tails Chakra protecting him, staying up all night wasn't a big problem, so he let him be.
Two days passed quickly, and there was no sign of the Akatsuki attacking for the time being.
So Natsuki and Kai didn't hesitate and left decisively, completely disregarding Naruto's attempts to make them stay.
For Kai, it was the same no matter where he trained, but he still preferred to be in the Village because he could go home immediately to eat, bathe, and sleep after training, which allowed for better rest.
As for Natsuki, he didn't want to stay there anymore and needed to return to the Village quickly.
So, he could only apologize to Naruto and let him continue training alone.
