"Hehe, Watergate, you haven't changed at all."
Jiraiya looked at Watergate in front of him and chuckled.
"Sensei, you haven't changed either."
Watergate said happily and quickly walked to Jiraiya.
They haven't seen each other for almost five years. Watergate has always missed the latter in his heart, but as Naruto, he can't leave the village without permission.
"I'm old."
Jiraiya shrugged. He is in his forties, no longer young. Even if he is a ninja, his face is full of wrinkles.
On the other hand, Watergate is almost 30 years old, but he doesn't look any different from five years ago.
Watergate's body was transformed by Nine-Tailed Chakra, so his aging is much slower than ordinary people.
"I miss you so much. How have you been these years outside?" Watergate said. In his heart, Jiraiya sensei is like a father.
Jiraiya stretched out his hand and patted Watergate's shoulder, and said: "Everything is good. I have heard about it all these years outside. You have done a good job."
He is very pleased that his disciple is Naruto who can lead Wood Leaf to prosperity.
"Shinna Kushina, Naruto, and Qianyou, how are the two children?" Jiraiya asked. When he left, Naruto was only a month old.
Watergate told him about Qianyou when he was exchanging information.
"Well, they are all good. Naruto just entered the Ninja School yesterday …" Watergate replied.
"He has entered the Ninja School?"
Jiraiya recalled that the first time he saw Watergate was also in the Ninja School.
At that time, he was just in his early twenties. Now, in a blink of an eye, his children were already in school.
The two of them chatted for a while, then Jiraiya took out a scroll from his arms and handed it to Minato.
Watergate took it and began to read. Then, he looked up with a serious expression.
"Sure enough, there is some connection between Orochimaru and the masked man who attacked Wood Leaf …"
What Jiraiya gave to Watergate was a summary of the information he collected over the years about Orochimaru.
"Has the Dark Department found it?" Jiraiya asked.
Watergate shook his head and said, "It's just my guess. It's been five years, even if Orochimaru is really powerful, under the dual tracking of the village and you, he hasn't been found even once."
"Among the masked man's companions, there are also people who are good at collecting information, so Orochimaru has repeatedly escaped our tracking. They should have provided some help."
Jiraiya nodded and sighed, "Unfortunately, so far, I still can't find any important information about the people who attacked Wood Leaf that night."
"It's not your fault. Those guys have been planning since the Third Shinobi World War or even earlier, and we didn't notice it until they took the initiative to appear that night. The power they have is absolutely not to be underestimated."
Watergate said. The masked man and his companions are more difficult to deal with than Watergate expected.
Jiraiya alone can do this outside the village, it's quite amazing.
"Orochimaru, this guy, not only betrayed the village, but also has a connection with this group of people who attacked the village. I should have killed him!"
Jiraiya said angrily. When he stopped Orochimaru, it was because of old friendship that he was defeated so quickly.
Otherwise, even if he couldn't win in a short time, when Wood Leaf's pursuers arrived, he and Uchiha Yan would definitely be able to stop Orochimaru.
"At that time, it's not all your fault. Even if you delayed Orochimaru, with the help of that group of people, we still couldn't stop him."
Minato also had a cold look in his eyes. He had asked himself the same question in his heart.
If he could kill the masked man on the night of the attack, maybe he could have prevented the disaster from happening, and Naruto wouldn't have to call him the Nine Tails Jinchuriki again.
However, in the situation at that time, even he couldn't do that.
"It's not easy for you to come back, so don't mention these unhappy things again."
Watergate smiled and said, "How long do you plan to stay this time?"
He knows that Sensei's heart can't let go of Orochimaru, so he won't stay in the village for long.
"I don't know yet, in fact, I came back this time mainly to prepare for the launch of my new book, and also to go back to the village to have a look."
Jiraiya said proudly. Among the five major ninja countries, the economy of the Land of Fire is the most prosperous.
His new book has been selected by one of the largest publishers in the Land of Fire, and it will be published in the country.
"Do you have a new work coming out?" Watergate's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Watergate loved Sensei's "The Legend of Perseverance" so much that he even named his child after the protagonist.
So, when he heard that Sensei has a new work, of course, he was looking forward to it.
"Well, it's a great work of historical significance!" Jiraiya crossed his arms and nodded heavily.
"Can you show it to me first?"
Watergate asked immediately, he couldn't wait to know what kind of wonderful story Sensei has created.
Jiraiya blinked at him with a slightly strange look in his eyes and said with a smile, "Of course, no problem."
With that, he took out a new book that has been bound from his arms, and it seems that the cover has been designed and packaged.
Watergate took the book from Sensei's hand and glanced at the cover first, the original look of expectation in his eyes changed slightly.
"Intimate Paradise"
Not only the name, but also the cover of this book gave Watergate a very strange feeling.
He raised his eyes and looked at Sensei suspiciously.
"Believe me, you will love it." Jiraiya said with a confident face.
Still in doubt, Minato flipped open the cover and began to read.
However, as soon as he started reading, he noticed that something was wrong.
Because the theme of this book seems to be completely different from the previous "The Legend of Perseverance".
After reading a few pages, Watergate's face suddenly changed, and then he quickly closed the book.
"This …" Watergate's eyes revealed a rather awkward look as he looked at Jiraiya.
At this time, Jiraiya gave him a somewhat wretched smile and said, "What do you think?
As long as you are a man, after reading this book of mine, you will absolutely love it. "
"You …"
Watergate didn't know what to say. He remembered that when he first became Sensei's disciple, something ridiculous happened at Wood Leaf's hot spring.
And what Sensei's new book described was not about ninjas like the "The Legend of Perseverance".
It was a plot that was not suitable for children …
He was stunned for a long time. After a long while, Watergate stared at Sensei in front of him and said with a fake smile.
"Sensei, are you sure you want to publish this book in your own name?"
