Watergate felt his teacher's solemnity and obtained his past, or it could be said that he knew what his teacher was going to say next.
Because in his memory, Jiraiya -sensei had said something similar.
"But now, let's go fill our stomachs and change our clothes." Jiraiya -sensei changed the topic and looked at his black burial clothes.
The next moment, he patted Watergate's shoulder with his palm and said with a smile: "Let's go, we haven't seen each other for more than half a year. Sensei will treat you to barbecue."
Watergate was stunned, then said with some embarrassment: "Let's go to my house to eat, I always make sensei spend money …"
"You don't have to be polite with me, let's go." Jiraiya pulled Watergate to the direction of the barbecue shop.
Jiraiya now lives alone, and like Watergate, he is not very good at cooking.
Watergate's cooking is not bad, but Jiraiya didn't want to treat his tongue unfairly after returning to the village.
The two first went to Watergate's house for a short while and changed their clothes.
Because of the nature of the task, Jiraiya's clothes are also sealed in the space scroll.
After having lunch in the barbecue shop, the two returned to Watergate's house.
In the living room, the two sat opposite each other, Jiraiya said: "This time, about your situation, Sarutobi sensei has already told me, it seems that I am right, you are really talented in Ninjutsu."
Jiraiya only taught Watergate some basic skills before leaving, and in terms of Ninjutsu, he only gave Watergate the third-generation Ninjutsu scroll.
That's because Jiraiya knew that he understood the Body Flicker Jutsu and even developed the "Instant Light" Minato. He has a talent that most people can't reach.
As he expected, not long after, he was able to comprehend the combination of Ninjutsu by himself in the Ninjutsu Trial, using the combination of Fire Release and Wind Release to overwhelm the Fire Release of Uchiha Yan who was born in the Uchiha Clan.
It wasn't long after he gave Watergate the ninjutsu scroll.
"Shadow Clone Jutsu, you also taught Shinna Kushina, right?" Jiraiya said.
Watergate nodded and admitted, he didn't hide it from his sensei.
"You know how to teach according to the students' abilities."
Jiraiya smiled, Shinna Kushina has the blood of the Uzumaki Clan, and the girl's fighting style is more direct, so Shadow Clone Jutsu is most suitable for her.
"Sho Sho Hatake's evaluation of you is also very high, I have never heard him praise a young ninja, you are the first one."
Jiraiya said, for Hatake Sho Sho, he, Tsunade and Orochimaru are also very respectful of this person.
Jiraiya said, while Watergate's face was calm, these so-called talents and praises are meaningless.
He was once famous in the ninja world, his sensei, disciples, superiors, all of them praised him, even his opponents respected and feared him.
However, on that night, about 15 years later, he still fell.
Talent and praise can't be translated into the strength to protect his family.
"It seems that you are the same as me, you don't care about this kind of meaningless thing, you did well, only with such a mood can you become a powerful ninja like sensei."
Seeing that Watergate didn't show any excitement and pride like ordinary children, he wasn't surprised by Watergate's temperament, but he still boasted.
Watergate smiled and said, "Jiraiya sensei, what are the things you said before that I must know as your disciple?"
Although he already had the answer in his heart, there is one thing that Watergate also wants to confirm.
Jiraiya heard this and said with a serious face, "The great toad ancestor of Mount Myoboku once made a prophecy, he said that one of my disciples will become the child of prophecy who will control the development of the ninja world in the future …"
"Child of prophecy?" Watergate had already expected this, but he still pretended to be shocked.
"In the future, the ninja world will suffer a huge disaster, and the child of prophecy is the existence that can lead the ninja world to greater development or destruction in the disaster …" Jiraiya said in a deep voice.
Watergate heard this and his heart couldn't help but sink. The masked man who fought with him once said that he was the person who unified the world.
In order to stop his conspiracy, Watergate sealed half of the power of Nine Tails and himself and Shinna Kushina's Chakra on his newborn child, so that when the disaster that Jiraiya sensei said comes, the child can stop him.
The name Naruto comes from the protagonist of Jiraiya's first novel "The Legend of Perseverance", and Watergate firmly believes that Naruto is the child of prophecy who can stop the disaster of the ninja world.
It's just that this kind of trust seems a little too blind, so now that Watergate has enough time, he wants to verify all of this.
"And you are my first disciple, and you are less than ten years old, but you have shown such amazing talent and ability, so maybe … you are the child of prophecy!"
Jiraiya looked at Watergate and said, his disciple's talent is extraordinary, enough to be called a rare talent in ten years or even decades, his future is unpredictable.
If that's all, Jiraiya didn't intend to tell Watergate about the Great Toad Sage's prophecy, but after listening to the conversation between Watergate and Orochimaru today, he began to suspect that Watergate may be the child of prophecy.
"Me?
It shouldn't be possible, right? "
Watergate immediately denied himself, if it weren't for those coincidences, he should have died 15 years later, and he couldn't stop the conspiracy of the masked man, so naturally, he can't be called the child of prophecy.
"This is just my guess, I just think that even if I will accept disciples in the future, it will be difficult to find someone better than you."
Jiraiya said. Watergate couldn't help but think to himself, in the upcoming Second Shinobi World War, Sensei will not be in the village for up to three years, and listening to him, he accepted three war orphans there as disciples.
And one of them, although he doesn't know his specific situation, Sensei's expectations for him are even higher than his.
But that disciple seems to have died in the war later, they can't be the child of prophecy.
"Did the Great Toad Sage tell you about the specific situation of the child of prophecy?
If so, when you accept disciples in the future, you can follow this standard, maybe you can find the child of prophecy. "
Watergate threw out the question that he had thought about for a long time, although he felt sorry for Sensei, there are some things that he must go to Mount Myoboku and see the Great Toad Sage.
He wants to judge who the so-called child of prophecy is.
