"I will hire Konoha's ninja to protect me on the way back."
Hire, protect.
It's so strange to use these two words to describe someone.
Do they know what monster they are protecting? In any case, in Konan's short life, she has never seen a ninja with such an exaggerated style of attack.
And when Konan heard that the teacher was going to hire a ninja from Konoha to protect him, she was happy about the fate of that ninja.
Because another person is about to fall into the teacher's clutches... No, it's the guidance of fate.
"What are you looking at? It's just that our Rain Country is suffering. In order to let everyone live a good life, we have no choice but to resort to this last resort."
"Yeah, yeah, the teacher is right."
"I'm glad you understand my teacher's intentions. By the way, don't forget to say goodbye to Mr. Jiraiya before you leave. If he wants to talk to an interesting author, I can always introduce him to one."
……
As a teacher, Noah’s style is really pragmatic. He will never miss any opportunity.
But it is really interesting that Jiraiya-sensei can also become the honorary leader of the Akatsuki organization.
"Ok."
Konan went to say goodbye to Jiraiya.
Jiraiya, who had an extremely free and easy outlook on life, was not very sad about the reunion and separation of his disciples. He was lucky to see that they were all doing well.
"It is very gratifying to see that you have been fulfilling your childhood dream, teacher. It is really great to have you in the Rain Country."
"Yahiko's views were a bit radical when he was a child. Keep an eye on him when you get back."
"Letting everyone feel the same pain will not bring peace. Bring him my Gensei Ninden as well. This is the teacher's best work."
Xiaonan happily accepted several copies of the Genshin Ninja Records. It was probably because the teacher couldn't sell these books in the bookstore and started giving them away.
As for Yahiko... don't worry, Mr. Jiraiya, he has given up his previous childish ideas.
To change the world, we must completely destroy the old world. It is too naive to let everyone feel pain.
Jiraiya felt that he might not have accomplished anything great over the years, but his life had become happy.
The eldest disciple became the Fourth Hokage, who had just begun to lead the village to rise again.
His village began to recover visibly.
The few disciples from other villages who were recruited later were also working hard to fulfill their oath and bring peace to the Rain Kingdom.
Especially since there is a child of destiny among them that I think I will succeed in, it seems that the whole world doesn’t require me to work hard anymore.
Perhaps the only thing that I am concerned about is the world destroyer mentioned by the Big Toad Immortal.
I don’t know whether Orochimaru’s reasoning is reliable, but this does not prevent me from continuing to wander in the ninja world.
There are still a few things to do before leaving.
"Xiao Nan, can you recommend me the author of The Gadfly? I think this work is excellent and I want to learn from it."
Jiraiya was still honest and consciously admitted that the novels he wrote were not as good as others.
After reading it repeatedly, he thought he could borrow some ideas to complete his own work.
Well, Jiraiya still didn't give up his root ninjutsu. He wasn't the kind of person who gave up easily.
Instead, I feel that adding a more realistic angle to the second volume of the Genshin Ninja Legend to highlight Naruto's never-give-up determination would make it more resonant.
Of course Xiaonan had no problem with this request, and it saved him the trouble of giving hints.
Konan followed Noah's instructions and relayed the details of the visit to Jiraiya, of course in her own tone.
Although Mr. Adam is a travel writer, he must have some manners to be able to write such profound works.
The first meeting was very formal, with certain requirements from gifts to location and time.
This is raising one's status. If one simply agrees to such an impromptu visit, it would seem very unclassy.
Asma doesn't need to do this because the other party is young and has a natural resistance to such cumbersome formalities in communication.
Moreover, Noah was only discussing romantic matters as an ordinary friend, so he had to strike just the right balance.
Jiraiya is different. People who have been in the ninja world for many years more or less understand some rules.
Since you are asking for advice, you should be serious and take the wise one as your teacher.
If Noah approaches enthusiastically from the start, the other party will think that he has other intentions, and after being alert, he will be in a passive state.
Jiraiya met the travel writer Adam for the first time in an ordinary teahouse.
Out of ninja instinct, he felt the breath of the person in the room through the bamboo curtain and frowned immediately. It seemed to be the breath of a young man.
How could the author of The Gadfly be a young man?
So Jiraiya lifted the curtain with a scrutinizing and vigilant look. The person he saw was indeed a young man, but the work was definitely written by him.
Because of the eyes!
That kind of eyes that were experienced and full of wisdom were not something a young person could possess. It reminded him of the masters of the schools he had met in the capital of the Fire Nation.
Of course, in comparison, I always feel that the eyes of those school leaders are a bit cloudy.
There was a fire in Adam's eyes, just like the fire in the protagonist's eyes in The Gadfly that had returned from hell.
It seems that only through countless hardships and persistence can one develop such a will. When I face it, I actually feel a little short of breath.
It's simply incredible. You should know that living in a place changes your energy and nourishing your body.
Without any disguise or restraint, most people would be in awe of me because of my status, position and strength.
However, the other party's calm and fearless attitude could actually compete with and even suppress himself. He was an extraordinary person.
Moreover, the aura emanating from this author is very strange, somewhere between dangerous and not dangerous, but without the feeling of chakra.
It was too mysterious, and Jiraiya's curiosity was aroused. He wanted to know the true origin of Mr. Adam in front of him.
Anyway, it is impossible for me to be an ordinary travel writer.
The reason why Noah did not disguise himself as an ordinary person is because ordinary disguises cannot fool such a master.
Orochimaru can sense Noah's abnormality in his own way, and so can Jiraiya.
Chapter 30: The beginning of deception and the helplessness of Liudao
If the chakra system is not enough, there is still the fairy technique system. The only man among the three ninjas who has mastered the fairy technique should not be underestimated.
Besides, it would be strange if an author who travels to various countries did not have some strength to rely on.
At the same time, he did not need to conceal his physical injuries, which could dispel the other party's suspicion and lay the foundation for hiring Konoha ninjas as guards later.
It's not that Noah is too cautious, but the nature of the ninja profession is so suspicious. It's better to play it half-truthfully.
This time, his character is an explorer who hopes for world peace, a character who leads Jiraiya to change his perspective.
"Hahahahaha."
First there was a hearty laugh, Jiraiya used laughter to cover up the surprised expression he had on his face when they first met.
Noah was a little disappointed that he didn't get to see the super awkward fairy dance.
The other party's vigilance was still quite high. Because he felt threatened, he still maintained his normal posture so that he could adjust his body shape at any time.
That's true, it's not even a year since the end of the war. Even if Jiraiya is a nerd, he won't get so excited now.
In the end, Jiraiya mainly wanted to ask for advice on the work, and the other party's identity could be discovered in subsequent conversations.
"Mr. Adam, I have read your work... I am..."
The conventional beginning was nothing new, and Noah greeted the toad immortal very reservedly.
Both parties communicate on an equal footing as authors.
After a brief introduction to each other and expressing his admiration for the Gadfly, Jiraiya asked a few questions with a skeptical attitude.
It is nothing more than the background of the work and the opportunity for its creation, so there is nothing wrong with this question.
Anyone who sees such a profound work will wonder under what background this book was created.
What's more, it would be strange if Noah didn't ask a few questions when he didn't look like an ordinary person.
What Noah is waiting for is questioning. Only by communicating more about work can one take control of the direction in one's own hands.
The first two worlds had provided enough material for him to make up an excellent short story.
"I was supposed to be a scholar and traveler. To be frank, I was able to protect myself before I got hurt."
"I have seen the sunset in the desert, the mountains towering into the clouds, and even crossed the endless ocean."
"I have excavated the secrets of an ancient country 800 years ago and entered an isolated ancient city, not to mention the countless capitals of different styles and countless human lives."
"It was just because of some accidents... so I wanted to tell what I saw and heard in my heart while I was still alive, combined with the background of this world."
“The Gadfly is my first book.”
The other party has traveled to so many countries and collected so many historical and mythological materials.
I have also observed all kinds of life and all walks of life. Is this the reason why my works are more realistic?
I have learned something, this time it is about the attitude towards writing.
Then what I observed the most was... eh? That's not good, izakaya... love street... hot spring hotel... little girl... big... Tsunade...
I couldn’t think about it, so I had to turn my mind back to serious communication.
Jiraiya was still in the early stages of his creative career and had not yet discovered that his instinctive talent could enable him to write a series of masterpieces.
Now continue to listen to Noah's nonsense.
"The work is inspired by the Demon Country and Hot Spring Country, both of which have a strong religious atmosphere."
"Especially, the Demon Country is still a country with a unified political system. The country is governed by a legendary shrine maiden who is said to have the ability to see the future and is incomparably beautiful."
"Many ancient tribes also have myths and legends from that era that have been passed down, and they have become a kind of family heritage."
"As for the political system, it was based on the setting of the Great Shrine of the Goddess of the Rabbit more than a thousand years ago. At that time, the power of religion should have reached its peak."
After talking about the background reference information of the story, Jiraiya felt that he had gained a lot.
"A beautiful witch..."
Noah immediately looked at me with contempt. I've said so much, but you can't grasp the key points?
"No, hahaha, I'm just curious about the ability to predict the future."
"According to records, the witch can only predict things related to herself. I haven't continued to study the deeper secrets yet."
Well, Jiraiya felt bad that Mr. Adam didn't continue his research on the miko.
It turns out that there is so much humanities knowledge in this world that I have never known. Although I am already a master in the ninja world, I am just a student in the cultural world.
He wandered around and never paid attention to the historical and cultural background that seemed mysterious to him. This is the gap.
Moreover, he had only heard of the legend of the Goddess of Mao from the Big Toad Immortal and had a vague understanding of it. He did not expect that the person in front of him also knew about it.
Seeing that Jiraiya was interested, Noah told this guy some 'hearsay'.
"I pieced together the story of the Goddess of the Rabbit based on bits and pieces of information I saw in the libraries of the Land of Whirlpools, the Land of Demons, and other countries. I can tell you briefly, but don't take it seriously."
"Yeah, I understand."
The topic was a bit off topic, but Jiraiya said it didn't matter. The author Adam opened the door to a new world for him.
"Legend has it that a thousand years ago, the 'Goddess of the Rabbit' came from outer space and brought peace to the world with the power of the gods."
"According to my research, it seems that the dividing line between the ninja and samurai eras is at that time point. So I would boldly guess that the chakra used by you ninjas appeared during that time period."
"Of course, I think the so-called goddess is a symbol of the religious authority that was superior to the daimyo in that era, not a real person."
"Later, power returned to the daimyo and his people, and the goddess disappeared from the world."
"Back to the story, the goddess gave birth to two children with the blessings and prayers of the people. It is said that one of the children was named Otsutsuki Hagoromo."
"That is the legendary founder of the Ninja Clan, the Sage of Six Paths."
Jiraiya wasn't too surprised after hearing this, as there were too many legends of the Six Paths in the ninja world.
