Naruto: Are you worthy of being called Sage Mode?

When he actually fought Jiraiya, Sarutobi Hiruzen discovered that the effect of the foundation-building spell was much greater than imagined.

It may be that the laws of this world are not perfect, and the suppression of various spells by heaven is not strong.

The foundation building stage was originally the initial stage of cultivating immortals, building the foundation of the Tao, but the effect of his spells now was almost comparable to that of a monk in the golden elixir stage.

At this time, the color of the world changed, and all the ninjas opened their mouths.

Jiraiya is said to be in sage mode, but with two toads standing on his shoulders and poisonous scabies-like pimples on his face, he doesn't look like a sage.

And Sarutobi Hiruzen stood on the flying sword with rolling thunder clouds behind him. He was better than a sage if not a sage.

The thunderbolt struck fiercely and hit the Rasengan in Jiraiya's hand.

Jiraiya's expression changed drastically, and the strong sense of danger gave him great fear.

"Jiraiya, get out of the way!"

The most fearful ones at this time were Fukasaku Sage and Shima Sage on Jiraiya's shoulders. Because Jiraiya couldn't master the sage mode, he needed to summon two toads to help him, so that he could maintain the sage mode longer. .

Animals are innately afraid of thunder, and there is a big difference between the power of thunder escape and thunder.

Although Jiraiya's Rasengan is powerful, it has a big shortcoming. It is extremely unstable internally and requires close contact to hit the opponent.

Naruto, who entered Sage Mode in the future, used the 100% complete Rasengan Shuriken to overcome this shortcoming.

Jiraiya directly chose to give up the Rasengan in his hand and use the Substitute Technique to escape.

The lightning struck the Rasengan, causing an instant roar. Even the ninjas watching from a distance felt their eardrums bulging for a moment.

Jiraiya landed awkwardly, released the sage mode, and voluntarily gave up the Rasengan. The bones and meridians of his right arm were greatly damaged, and there was no need to continue fighting.

Jiraiya hasn't felt like this for a long time. When the three ninjas were still genin, they could feel that their teacher was an insurmountable mountain. But as they grew up and Sarutobi Hiruzen aged, the gap continued to decrease. .

But now, facing his teacher, Jiraiya felt powerless again.

Not only Jiraiya, but also the ninjas who were watching the battle from a distance had their inner views of Sarutobi Hiruzen changed.

From a distance, Hiruzen Sarutobi seemed to represent the might of heaven, completely invincible.

The eyes of Orochimaru and Itachi were full of enthusiasm. It seemed that what Sarutobi Hiruzen said was true. The ancient immortal's cultivation method might really lead to immortality!

With a flying sword falling from the sky, Sarutobi Hiruzen extended his hand to Jiraiya who was kneeling on the ground.

"I told you a long time ago, you still have a lot to learn."

"What the hell, old guy! I'm just not familiar with your abilities!"

Jiraiya still wanted to be tough, but he couldn't help but hold Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand and was pulled up by his master.

He seems to be more reliable than his previous teacher.

"Jiraiya, from now on, don't call your move Sage Mode. Change it to Toad Mode."

This is Sarutobi Hiruzen's true words. The way Jiraiya enters sage mode really has nothing to do with sage.

Perhaps only the Buddha summoned by Senju Hashirama's sage mode has a hint of sage.

"What a toad mode, that's the immortal mode!"

Jiraiya blushed and argued vehemently.

Orochimaru, Tsunade and all the ninjas came.

"Okay, Jiraiya, stop arguing. I think the teacher is the real sage."

Tsunade is hard-spoken but soft-hearted. Although she is complaining, she has already begun to use palm senjutsu to treat Jiraiya.

The eyes of all the ninjas looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen changed.

In their eyes, the former Sarutobi Hiruzen was a decadent antique, but now that Sarutobi Hiruzen has left the center of power in the village and has such great strength, everyone's attitude has naturally changed.

The major ninja clans looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with great respect, and even the arrogant Uchiha clan jounin looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with a little fear.

Orochimaru did not completely trust the Uchiha clan. This time, he asked the Uchiha clan to watch the battle, which also meant to beat the Uchiha clan.

It seems that the purpose has been achieved.

"Let's go back to the village and talk about it later."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's strength gave Orochimaru many different ideas.

Chakra comes from Otsutsuki's bloodline. The optimized Otsutsuki cells will definitely be of great help in cultivating chakra. So, does the current Sarutobi Hiruzen have something different in his bloodline?

Thinking of this, Orochimaru's eyes became wild. He must find an opportunity to draw some of his teacher's blood for research!

Back in the village, Sarutobi Hiruzen could tell from Orochimaru's eyes what this guy was planning.

"Don't even try to experiment on me!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't want to have an extra clone or something in the future.

Orochimaru smiled and didn't mention it again.

Since the teacher doesn't agree, let's wait until later.

Jiraiya was taken directly to the hospital by Tsunade. This time he needed to take a good rest.

Witnessing the battle between Jiraiya and Sarutobi Hiruzen, Konoha's top brass also took reassurance.

Several ninjas are not fools, and they must be able to sense Konoha's plan.

They all felt keenly that this was an opportunity for them, even an opportunity to change the fate of the ninja profession.

The only problem may be that Konoha's current strength is not enough. Even with the Uchiha clan, it will definitely not be enough to face the four major ninja villages and the five major nations.

But today's Sarutobi Hiruzen reminded them of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, who were once invincible in the ninja world. If Konoha's power continues to be enough, it might not be able to set off a revolution that sweeps the entire ninja world!

The most surprising thing may be Sarutobi Hiruzen's two sons, Shinnosuke and Asuma.

The change in their father was so great that the two of them couldn't accept it.

Especially Asuma, who is still in the rebellious stage and is arrogant. Now Sarutobi Hiruzen's strength makes him a little powerless. No matter how much he catches up, he can't catch up in this situation, right?

Miki Koai's eyes shone, and her current strength was actually far superior to that of most chuunin. After all, there were relatively few taijutsu-type ninjas, and they could often take them by surprise.

Can she be as powerful as Hiruzen Sarutobi in the future?

Jiraiya went to the hospital again. He couldn't understand why he was always the one who got hurt.

Fortunately, Tsunade's attitude towards him was much better this time. As a former teammate, Tsunade could feel Jiraiya's progress.

Jiraiya's strength is actually very strong, but his life is always unsatisfactory. Perhaps without the shackles of the so-called prophecy, he can find the true meaning of his life.
