Naruto: Starting with Tsunade-san

First and foremost, Sarutobi Hiruzen needed to guide his student onto the right path. He sighed helplessly as he looked at his student, "You are truly peculiar, getting caught in such obvious traps so many times as a ninja, where is your dignity?"

"Because..."

Jiraiya tried to justify himself but couldn't find a reasonable explanation, so he remained silent.

During the bell-stealing exercise, Sarutobi Hiruzen realized that Jiraiya was rushing without thinking and decided he needed a long-term goal. He said to him, "What you lack is a goal."

"What?"

"Yes..." Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment, then said, "I found the solution."

It is said that interest is the best teacher.

"What?"

Jiraiya didn't understand what his teacher meant.

"Don't worry, just watch carefully."

Sarutobi Hiruzen decided to show him instead of explaining. He bit his finger and started forming seals rapidly, then placed his hand on the ground.

"Summoning Jutsu (Kuchiyose no Jutsu)."

With the spread of mysterious lines from his palm, there was a commotion, and a large amount of white smoke appeared. After it cleared, a humanoid creature suddenly emerged. It had white fur, golden eyes, was covered in long thick hair, had a long tail, and looked somewhat like a monkey in outline.

The body and tail of Enma were covered with white fur protruding from his sleeves and pants. He had long, unkempt white hair reaching his back, long sideburns, and a chin beard. He wore a black suit with mesh armor underneath, topped by a sleeveless kimono shirt with white fur trim and tiger stripe-like markings, fastened with a red sash. Enma also wore a Konoha forehead protector.

Monkey King: Enma

The psychical beast contracted by the Sarutobi family for generations had an indestructible body. Besides being a great aid in battle, it could also transform into an indestructible golden staff, known as the strongest psychical beast.

"Awesome!" Jiraiya exclaimed in awe.

Sarutobi Hiruzen explained, "This is the Summoning Jutsu, used to summon creatures you've contracted with by blood."

Jiraiya wanted to learn this technique immediately, but Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, "You can't yet."

Jiraiya felt discouraged.

"Everyone has different destinies, and the creatures you can contract with vary too."

"Who should I contract with?"

"Before contracting, you need to gather more chakra and learn the seals."

Jiraiya grumbled, "Oh, I have to train again."

Sarutobi Hiruzen scolded, "The answer lies in training."

"I understand."

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt relieved to see Jiraiya thinking seriously. Perhaps he would become an excellent ninja if he focused on training.

In Jiraiya's mind, "Hehe, the guiding technique is really amazing, I must learn it so I can use it to pick up girls when the time comes."

Oh, by the way, I also want to use it to defeat Tsunade so she can't look down on me again.

With this mindset, Jiraiya began to train desperately, looking forward to the day he could learn the guiding technique.

.....

One day, Jiraiya felt the time had come, so he invited three friends, including Tōshirō, to witness how he could show off.

In front of everyone, Jiraiya imitated the hand seals of Hiruzen Sarutobi, then slapped one hand on the ground, "Summoning Technique."

Upon hearing the name, the three present were shocked.

The Summoning Technique, a C-rank difficulty, is a ninjutsu that can only be learned by Chunin level. How did Jiraiya learn it?

But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Jiraiya roared loudly, but there was no reaction under his palm.

Jiraiya:...

Tsunade, Orochimaru, Tōshirō:.....

"Ah, that's strange, why is there no summoned beast?"

Jiraiya couldn't help but scratch his head. He had seen the teacher Hiruzen Sarutobi use it once and had been expecting this moment for a long time, thinking he would summon a creature.

Tsunade looked at him and asked a key question, "Don't you have a contract yet?"

"Contract?"

Tsunade covered her face with one hand, "It's my fault. I expected this now. Don't you think strong winds bring summoned beasts? The first step before using the Summoning Technique, and the most crucial step, is to sign a contract with the beast, you fool."

Jiraiya felt embarrassed for forgetting that: "Oh, of course, I know about this kind of thing. I trained it in advance to test you."

Tsunade snorted, "Then you should train well, I have to go."

Accompanied by Orochimaru, they left one after another.

Tōshirō remained alone, making eye contact with Jiraiya.

Jiraiya knew he couldn't defend himself, so he simply stopped pretending, "Why didn't you leave? Are you going to stay and laugh at me?"

Tōshirō said, "I trust you."

When Jiraiya heard this, he was deeply moved and held Tōshirō's hand enthusiastically, "You are a very good friend."

Tōshirō smiled, "So, how do you want to thank me?"

"Ah..." Jiraiya listened awkwardly, "What do you want me to do?"

Tōshirō went straight to the point, "Teach me the Summoning Technique."

Jiraiya said in surprise, "Aren't you interested in being a ninja? Why do you suddenly want to learn ninjutsu?"

"This technique is an exception."

"Exception?"

"It's simple. What a lazy person like me needs most is someone who can handle tasks and help me with my work."

Jiraiya:...

Using a psychical beast to work for him is indeed something only Tōshirō could think of.

"Why, you don't want to?"

"It's okay, it's just..."

Jiraiya looked troubled.

Not because it was a secret not to be taught, but because he himself might not know how to teach it.

"Could it be..." Tōshirō said with a suspicious look on his face: "You really don't know how to guide, so you pretend to be a big alpha wolf here."

"Who said I can't do it anymore? Practicing the Summoning Technique is difficult and requires a lot of hardship. I'm not telling you until I realize it."

Never mind.

At that time, if you can't learn it, it will only depend on Tōshirō's qualifications and intelligence, which is none of your business.

Jiraiya was desperate to save face, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet.

Tōshirō clenched his fist and swore, "It's understandable. To lie down more easily in the future, I must learn the guiding technique."

Learning ninjutsu just out of laziness made even Jiraiya speechless, "You are really lazy..."

"You're not much better than me. You learn ninja techniques just to pick up girls."

"Okay, if you know that, don't tell anyone. I'll be embarrassed."

"Okay, okay, stop pretending. You still don't understand me. Please teach me the Summoning Technique. I can't wait to learn it and use the psychical beast as a servant..."

"I understand, don't rush me."

Jiraiya recalled the precautions and seals Hiruzen used when he taught him the Summoning Technique and then taught them all to the other party as much as possible.

Tōshirō studied very seriously, and his flexible brain quickly memorized the basic operations of the psychical technique and prepared to practice it in private when no one was around.

After understanding it almost completely, Tōshirō thanked Jiraiya and prepared to treat him to dinner next time.

When he heard that Tōshirō was inviting guests to dinner, Jiraiya drooled, "Okay, it's settled, I want fish head with chopped peppers. I ate it last time, and I still remember it fresh."

"No problem."

.....

At night, the moon was bright, the stars were sparse, and the night was quiet.

While everyone was asleep, the night owl Tōshirō became active and began to train.

After doing a thousand push-ups in one go, Tōshirō took a break and sipped some water.

Recently, Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya, since they graduated from school, their strength had become visible to the naked eye, and Tōshirō felt more and more pressure.

To hide his strength, Tōshirō usually stayed home to train in the middle of the night. The advantages of doing so were clear. No one would discover he was training, but the disadvantages were also evident. Due to limited space, he usually couldn't perform many moves using his hands and feet. When everyone was studying in the past, it wasn't an issue.

But since Tsunade and the others graduated one after another and received more systematic training, along with personalized guidance, Tōshirō's cautious approach to working behind closed doors at home would soon widen the gap with them.

To prevent this gap from widening, Tōshirō might have to find a remote place to train and increase his training speed.

There wouldn't be any problems doing this once or twice, but the problem was that Tōshirō would train like this every day for the next few years to ensure no one saw him training, thus revealing his strength.

Under the age of sixteen, Tōshirō didn't want to be remembered and sent into battle.

For a moment, Tōshirō also had a headache and didn't know what to do.

He remembered that he got the summoning technique from Jiraiya in the morning, and this technique was safer to use and could be practiced at home.

Thinking about this, Tōshirō closed his eyes and carefully reviewed the sealing methods of the technique in his mind, as well as the precautions involved.

After clarifying his thoughts, Tōshirō started the summoning technique seals and performed the seals several times without chakra, then began to formally try the summoning technique.

Before trying the technique officially, Tōshirō felt that there was something very important to do.

After thinking about it, he didn't think of it. Although Jiraiya used the psychological technique in the morning, he suspected that it was a big wolf, but Tōshirō still agreed with one sentence.

It's always a good idea to train more when learning ninjutsu.

Qing Pheasant quickly formed the seals, drew the gourd and spade, and pressed the ground with one hand.

With force, a cloud of white smoke emerged from under his hand, covering him completely.

This situation showed that Tōshirō's first use of the summoning technique was successful.

The first time he used the summoning technique, he succeeded, which proved that Tōshirō was very talented.

But the problem is...

Looking at the world covered in silver that appeared on the horizon, Tōshirō seemed confused and had all sorts of thoughts coming to mind.

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I doing?

A wave of biting plastic wind struck, a severe cold seeped in, making him feel cold and sneeze: "Achoo!"
