Chapter 180: From Scandal to Sensei

After talking to Jiraiya, Sasuke took a deep breath to stabilize his emotions, then got up and went out to modify the girls' memories.

Jiraiya thought for a while and followed behind him.

After wandering around for a while, although Sasuke has now sobered up, he obviously no longer has any interest in continuing to play, so he left out the door of the club.

Jiraiya also came out.

"Ahem, thank you for your help, brother, I will treat you to a treat next time!" Sasuke said gratefully.

"But after all, my age is a problem, can you please..."

"Do you want me not to spread the word?" Jiraiya laughed. "Don't worry, I am very discreet. As a shinobi I am used to keeping secrets. I promise that no one else will know this matter from my mouth."

Sasuke breathed a sigh of relief.

But Jiraiya came over laughingly. "But boy, your talent is really good.

"How about you take me as your teacher? You should know my strength and my position in Konoha, right?"

"I am the man who taught the Fourth Hokage, and I will definitely make you a powerful shinobi!"

Accept it as a teacher? Sasuke was surprised. Honestly, he appreciates Jiraiya. But regarding him being his teacher...

The arrogant Sasuke was still reluctant, and said with some embarrassment: "My good brother, don't use this..."

"I regard you as a good brother, but you want to be my master..."

"Hey? Boy, are you still not happy?" Jiraiya immediately saw Sasuke's reluctance and said angrily: "Do you know that this old man is the Sannin of Konoha?"

'I'll teach you and you're not happy?'

Sasuke: "I have brother Natsuo to teach me, he is recognized as the strongest shinobi in the world today."

The corners of Jiraiya's eyes twitched, and he waved his hand, saying: "Although Natsuo is more famous and stronger, but I have a lot of advanced ninjutsu, he may not know as much ninjutsu as me

Sasuke: "Brother Natsuo has mastered the Five Basic Natures and, as far as I've seen, has mastered around 30 A-level ninjutsu."

'Is this Natsuo kid so fierce?' Jiraiya was surprised for a moment. "Boy, I know Sage Mode, do you know Sage Mode? It's a state you can access when you can manipulate natural energy, allowing you to use techniques stronger than ordinary ninjutsu!"

Sasuke: "Brother Natsuo can do it too, and he even taught it to all of us in the clan, but it's a shame we haven't learned it yet."

This is true, since Natsuo obtained the Sage Mode of the system he tried to teach Naruto, Sasuke, Neji, Yukino, Ameyuri and other of his wives.

However, although the Sage Mode that Natsuo knows is more suitable for the human body, it is extremely difficult to learn as well as having very strict requirements for the user. It was not until she formed a complete bond with Ameyuri and was able to share the Shizenchikara that she began to learn Sage Mode.

Apart from those wives with whom he has a complete bond, no one else has been able to learn Sage Mode, so they could only complain to him.

Jiraiya's eyes widened. 'Does this Natsuo kid even know Sage Mode? So what advantage do I have?'

Has a lot of money?

As a renowned novelist, Jiraiya is really not poor, but compared to the Uchiha clan, it is as if he is only a little richer than an ordinary person.

Reputation?

Although being a Sannin means he's not weak, but Natsuo is the strongest shinobi in the world!

Jiraiya opened his mouth, he racked his brains, but he couldn't think of an advantage...

In the end, he just played rogue: "Sasuke, I often talk in my sleep when I sleep, if I don't have a disciple to remind me from time to time..."

Sasuke: "..."

'You, the worthy Sannin, are playing dirty with me, a child? Just now you said that you are very good at keeping secrets!'

But looking at Jiraiya's threatening eyes, he finally had to bow his head. "I understand, I will be your disciple..."

...

Mikoto and Natsuo originally thought that Sasuke was too affected by the news and wouldn't be able to accept it for a while, so they took a break.

Unexpectedly, the next day, he directly led Jiraiya in.

"Brother Natsuo, I have already accepted my good wingman... cough, cough, I have accepted Lord Jiraiya as my master." Sasuke lowered his head so that no one could see his expression.

Natsuo was taken aback for a moment, listening to Sasuke's words, it was obvious that the matter was resolved.

'Jiraiya accepts Sasuke as a disciple instead of Naruto? What about Naruto? Should I find Orochimaru? Huh? That would be interesting to see...' After pondering for a while, Natsuo asked curiously: "Sasuke, why do you want to learn from Jiraiya?"

Kakashi, who led Sasuke and Naruto back then, is one of the best shinobi in Konoha, and his reputation is not bad.

But those two who had just graduated looked down on him, and even got into trouble many times...

Although they called him 'Kakashi-sensei', they didn't really consider him their teacher at all.

In reality, Sasuke and Naruto were able to return so quickly from the battlefield because they became too reckless and Kakashi nearly died saving them many times.

Sasuke, when he had just graduated, didn't even like Kakashi. And now that he's experienced the battlefield does he really like Jiraiya?

"Well, the main reason is that Jiraiya-sensei is strong, handsome and charismatic. The first time I saw him, I was overwhelmed by his presence..." Sasuke said words that I couldn't believe without changing his expression.

Jiraiya laughed at the side, and then pretended to be a little shy: "Actually, I'm not as good as you say..."

Natsuo: "..."

Natsuo squinted his eyes slightly and vaguely felt that Sasuke's pupil power was at the level of the Mangekyo.

But no matter what, Natsuo was still glad that Jiraiya is Sasuke's teacher.

Although Jiraiya's strength is not as good as Natsuo, he is also one of the best in the shinobi world and has a wide network of contacts. If it wasn't for his unwillingness, he would have been Hokage long ago.

After chatting a little more, Natsuo as leader of the Uchiha clan presented his gift: the Uchiha Club Gold Card.

Jiraiya said: "There is no need to be so polite..." But before he finished speaking he took the card with incredible speed.

At that speed, even Sasuke, who had just opened the Mangekyo, almost couldn't see it clearly.

Sasuke covered his face, feeling a little embarrassed. 'Good wingman, why do you act like you've never seen the world?'

What made him feel even more helpless was that Natsuo actually acted like he was his father and had a long talk with Jiraiya.

"Brother Natsuo, you really want to be my father..." Sasuke complained.

In fact, Jiraiya was also a little curious about Natsuo's behavior, but upon hearing Sasuke's complaints he now knows that the brother he was referring to and who wants to be his father is Natsuo.

But what about the mother? How can Sasuke's mother remarry?

'Sasuke's mother seems to have died the night of the genocide, right?' Jiraiya pondered. 'How can Natsuo marry Sasuke's mother?'

'Could it be that Sasuke has recognized a stepmother during this time?' Jiraiya blinked. 'This is really possible.'

After all, he lacks maternal love. If someone takes pity on him and cares for him, maybe he can really move Sasuke and make him recognize her as her mother.

Then, the adoptive mother was taken back by Natsuo...

Jiraiya and Natsuo chatted for a long time.

Jiraiya hopes to take Sasuke on a trip. Traveling not only allows Sasuke to meet many people and things, but also gain countless knowledge that cannot be experienced in the village. He can also fight shinobi along the way and increase his combat experience.

Of course, the most important thing is that Jiraiya needs to find Orochimaru. So he has to run around in shinobi world.

Sasuke was a little dissatisfied with this, he felt it was better to practice with Natsuo instead of Jiraiya. But after Jiraiya gave Jiraiya a threatening look, he really couldn't refuse Jiraiya's proposal, or Konoha would spread his own scandal!

Natsuo also agreed.

Although now Sasuke seems to have accepted the wrong teacher and somehow became Jiraiya's disciple, it seems that there is nothing wrong with letting him experience Naruto's practice during the Naruto Series.

Natsuo wouldn't mind handing Naruto over to Orochimaru if he could and let them exchange roles. But unfortunately, there is a high probability that Orochimaru has no interest in Naruto, much less would want to face the problems that having the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in his hands would bring. He knows how powerful Akatsuki is.

Of course, the trip will have to wait until after the negotiations with Iwagakure are finished.

As the commander of the front line against Iwagakure, Jiraiya can take his time returning to the village with the logistics team, but it is really impossible for him to leave Konoha before the end of the war.

And Sasuke also wants to wait until the situation with Itachi comes to a conclusion before considering the question of leaving the village.

...

Another half month has passed.

Iwagakure finally signed a peace treaty with Konoha, and the Fourth Shinobi World War ended completely.

This time Iwagakure lost a lot.

Even though Onoki decisively sent out a peace message, she was still cut by Tsunade mercilessly. Not just as simple as war reparations, he actually cut off a piece of land from Iwagakure, allowing Konoha's area of influence to expand even further..

This is a very strange thing, because after the establishment of the five major countries, although the major countries sometimes annexed small countries, there has never been a situation where the five major countries ceded their own territories.

But this time Tsunade did it. Her prestige instantly soared.

And Third Tsuchikage Onoki is actually helpless.

Iwagakure can no longer bear to continue the war, even without considering Natsuo. With the losses suffered by Iwagakure so far, they can no longer defeat Konoha. This is without taking into account that all the other large shinobi villages have suffered losses in one way or another, leaving Konoha to concentrate all of its forces on them.

One on one, there is no shinobi village that is Konoha's opponent. What's more, they still have Natsuo this time.

'What am I going to fight against?' Onoki sighed. He endured the humiliation, but the Iwa Shinobi didn't understand it at all.

Onoki was immediately dubbed the 'Worst Tsuchikage Ever'. It can be predicted that this title will accompany him throughout his life.

Public opinion in Iwagakure savagely criticized Onoki, and Han the Five-Tails Jinchuriki even took the initiative to publicly criticize Onoki, in an act of venting his hatred for how he was treated in the village. Han held Onoki responsible for Iwagakure's current decline and demanded that he should abdicate his position as Kage.

But at the end of the day Onoki is not to blame for Iwagakure's current situation. Unlike the Third Hokage during World War III, where he signed a peace treaty with Iwagakure even though Konoha won the war at the time, which caused heated arguments within Konoha and forced him to quickly abdicate.

Upon hearing about Iwagakure's situation, both Rasa and Terumi Mei could only secretly sigh in their hearts. If they hadn't decisively bowed to Natsuo at the beginning, they might be in the same situation...

Although Onoki's prestige and influence were damaged due to this war, he is still the grandson of the First Tsuchikage and the Second Tsuchikage was his teacher, and he has participated in all battles from the First World War to the current one. So this was not enough to make him abdicate the position of Kage as was the case with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Of course, Iwagakure is not the only one who finds himself in this tragic situation.

Kumogakure is equally miserable.
