Chapter 126 Oh! No~
"It contains my secret and precious cultivation methods. It's best to open it somewhere secluded to avoid leaking these methods. Alright, now you two should work hard." Jiraiya looked at the two with encouraging eyes.
Naruto immediately straightened his back and said firmly, "Okay! We'll do our best!" indicating that he would devote himself to his training and live up to Jiraiya's expectations.
Naruto held the scroll in his hands, his eyes gleaming with excitement. He turned to Boruto, his tone full of anticipation: "We're finally going to start training seriously! Thanks! Perverted Sage!"
Sasuke has defected from the village and joined Orochimaru's school, where he is presumably undergoing intensive training. Meanwhile, Sakura is diligently studying medical ninjutsu under Tsunade's guidance, constantly improving her abilities.
In contrast, only he and Boruto seem to be stuck in the same place, without making any significant progress.
As Naruto spoke, he pulled Boruto into the room, his eyes scanning the surroundings for a secluded corner: "Walls have ears, windows have eyes..."
Naruto appeared very cautious, worried that the secret training plan that the perverted sage had given them might be overheard or spied on by others.
"Hey, no..." Boruto noticed Naruto grabbing him and rushing towards the bathroom...
As Jiraiya watched Boruto and Naruto's figures gradually disappear from his sight, he hurriedly prepared to leave, fearing that the two might suddenly come to their senses and catch up with him, so he could not stay there for long.
Naruto had already dragged Boruto to the bathroom, locked the door, and then plopped down on the toilet, muttering, "Perverted Sage... secret technique."
Then, Naruto unfolded the scroll with anticipation, only to find it completely blank, without any text: "What's going on...?"
Naruto continued to unroll the scroll, unwilling to give up, until it was fully unrolled. He examined it closely and found that there were only two words written on it.
will!
Naruto's eyes widened as he stared at the two striking words on the scroll. His pupils seemed to dilate in shock: "What!!!! The Perverted Sage!!!!" These two words were not the cultivation manual he had been expecting!
Naruto quickly snatched the scroll, which was not yet fully unfolded, from Boruto's hand and examined it closely. Sure enough, he found that the other side of the scroll also only had the words "Perseverance!"
Naruto angrily threw the scroll to the ground and turned to Boruto, his emotions running high: "That perverted sage deceived both of us! I'm going to settle the score with him!"
Although Naruto angrily declared that he would settle accounts with Jiraiya, he knew in his heart that they had already wasted a lot of time because of this broken scroll, and Jiraiya must have already disappeared without a trace.
Finally accepting reality, Naruto sighed deeply, his tone full of helplessness: "Now it's just the two of us left to train on our own again."
At this moment, Boruto lowered his head and said, "Um... actually, you're the only one who was fooled."
Upon hearing Boruto's words, Naruto's face showed a shocked expression: "Could it be... you...?"
Naruto stared at Boruto in disbelief, then suddenly remembered the time during the Chunin Exams when the Perverted Sage took them to eat ramen, and both the Perverted Sage and Boruto skipped out on the bill.
At this moment, Naruto still clung to a sliver of hope and said, "Hey, Boruto, tell me you're joking, right...?"
Boruto slowly turned his face towards Naruto, apologetic smile playing on his lips: "Sorry..."
Before Boruto could finish speaking, his figure suddenly turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared into the air right before Naruto's eyes, leaving a bewildered Naruto standing alone in the same spot.
Naruto stared blankly around, only to find the toilet empty except for his lonely figure and the scrolls scattered haphazardly on the floor.
When Naruto came to his senses, he couldn't help but let out a bloodcurdling scream: "Oh! No!~~~~" His voice echoed in the empty room.
......
Jiraiya arrived downstairs at Naruto's apartment, feeling a little smug about his prank. He couldn't help but chuckle softly, "Hahaha! Kids are just kids, they fall for it so easily."
But Jiraiya's smile froze on his face the next second, because he suddenly noticed that at the corner of the stairs, Boruto was leaning leisurely against the wall with a backpack on his back, seemingly waiting for his arrival.
Boruto's eyes met Jiraiya's, and a slight smile appeared on his lips. He extended an invitation to Jiraiya: "Oh, what a coincidence! You're taking this route too? How about we... go together?"
Earlier, when Boruto sensed something was wrong, he used the Shadow Clone Technique to send a clone to talk to Jiraiya and the others while he was in his room getting his backpack.
Meanwhile, his true form had already climbed out the window and silently circled around to the ground floor to wait for his prey.
Jiraiya felt a bit of a headache. Sure enough, this little trick might fool Naruto, but it was clearly not enough to deal with Boruto.
No wonder Boruto's reaction was so mild just now; he had already figured out that I was trying to sneak away.
Jiraiya looked at Boruto's forced smile and gave an awkward laugh: "Hehehe, what a coincidence. Well, I have something to do, so I'll be going now..."
With that, Jiraiya took a step forward and turned to walk away into the distance.
Seeing that Jiraiya still wasn't planning to take him along even after all this, Boruto cupped his hands around a megaphone and shouted loudly towards Naruto's window upstairs, "Hey! Naruto... um..."
But before Boruto could utter more than a few words, Jiraiya quickly covered his mouth, stopping him from continuing.
Jiraiya secretly thought to himself that if Naruto joined in now, it would greatly increase the difficulty of his escape.
Faced with Boruto's insistence, Jiraiya could only sigh helplessly: "Fine, fine, I'll take you with me. Honestly, I just can't do anything with you."
Jiraiya knew perfectly well that he hadn't abandoned them for research purposes, but rather because Tsunade had received crucial information about the Akatsuki organization, and only he could investigate it now.
Thinking of this, Jiraiya frowned. After all, the Akatsuki members were all tough guys, and they were S-rank rogue ninjas whose strength should not be underestimated.
I don't know if it's right or wrong for me to bring Boruto along on missions.
