Tsunade, I am the Hokage!

"Teacher, these two types of Water Jutsu only require basic attributes. You can use them if you have the corresponding attributes, so I was able to master them quickly. In fact, there's still a lot I need to learn."

Kyohiko summarized his thoughts.

He knows.

The Water Array Wall of Senju Tobirama can rotate to make the defensive effect stronger.

The remaining Water Array Walls can also be higher and larger.

In comparison...

I've just begun learning how to use Water Jutsu techniques.

The attribute system on the panel also proves this. Two striking entry-level evaluations.

Kakashi couldn't help but say, "That's already impressive!" He thought to himself...

When he first used Lightning Release Jutsu, he wasn't like Kyohiko, who could immediately use B-level Jutsu.

Kakashi began to understand how his peers felt when they looked at him.

It felt so uncomfortable!

Kurenai's mood became even more complicated.

Both Kyohiko and Kakashi are absolute geniuses, and it is only natural for them to become subordinates and disciples of Lord Jiraiya.

What about herself?

Her eyes became dull and lost in thought, and she remained speechless for a long time.

In Ninja School, Kurenai was an excellent student, always ranked among the top in the class. But after leaving Ninja School, she couldn't help but compare herself with Kyohiko and Kakashi, and her self-confidence was immediately hit hard.

Jiraiya glanced at her and couldn't help but sigh—

Yuhi Kurenai isn't a bad person, but it's definitely difficult for her to get along with Kyohiko and Kakashi.

However...

What surprised and comforted Jiraiya most about Kyohiko was that he was more mature than he had imagined.

If it were an ordinary Genin, and he mastered B-level jutsu on his first try, his tail would probably be up in the air.

But this one is better.

No need to criticize him, but to criticize and summarize oneself first.

What he needs to do...

It means giving the jutsu scroll to the other party, and then teaching Kyohiko how to practice and learn.

Save your worries!

Jiraiya sighed in his heart but nodded calmly.

"It's good that you understand. This level is far from a true genius. If I had used Water Jutsu like this, the teacher would definitely ask me if I was distracted."

"Yes."

Kyohiko lowered his head respectfully, forcing himself to suppress a smile.

Jiraiya wasn't talking about him, but about Orochimaru.

Back then, Orochimaru was indeed more abnormal than Kyohiko and Kakashi, otherwise Sarutobi Hiruzen wouldn't have placed such high hopes on him.

Jiraiya's face didn't flush, and his heart didn't race.

He coughed lightly and looked at Kakashi and Kurenai.

"Kakashi, if you have any questions, you can ask me later."

"Yes."

Kakashi replied respectfully.

Finally, Kurenai...

Jiraiya's expression turned serious.

He had originally ordered Kurenai, not because he really liked her.

As a Genjutsu ninja, her chakra control was beyond question, and she had practiced Genjutsu for many years, making her a great candidate to learn medical ninjutsu.

"Kurenai, during this time, you should focus on improving your body and then come back to study this jutsu."

He pulled out a scroll.

Kurenai opened—

The letter said, Ninja technique: the Technique of Chaotic Lion's Hair.

"This is..."

Kurenai opened her eyes wide in disbelief.

She had heard of this technique.

It's Jiraiya's exclusive jutsu, and it played a huge role in the assessment this morning.

"As a Genjutsu ninja, your chakra control ability is excellent. It should only be a matter of time before you learn it. Also, if you have time, you can study some medical ninjutsu."

Jiraiya said seriously, "You don't need to learn it in depth. I will write you a letter of introduction."

"Thank you, teacher."

Kurenai bowed deeply.

The Technique of Chaotic Lion's Hair.

Genjutsu.

Medical Ninjutsu.

With this path, her direction is to become a more versatile support ninja.

"Believe in yourself. You have the potential to become a ninja like Tsunade. That's why I chose you." Jiraiya poured out soul food without asking for anything in return.

Kurenai was excited and nodded repeatedly.

The three of them continued training.

Kyohiko was still practicing Water Style ninjutsu.

As he had said.

Although he had learned how to release ninjutsu, he was still far from "mastering" it.

At least—

The Water Array Wall must be upgraded to the "Mastery" level, right?

"Alright, let's train. Starting tomorrow, we'll need to begin carrying out our mission."

As evening approached, the team separated.

Many people in Konoha were sleepless tonight.

Jiraiya led the team again, recruited talented ninjas from the Hatake family, and also selected a civilian ninja.

Many people started to ask, but in the end, they were all confused.

Who is Yoshimine Kyohiko?

When asked the children of the same age in the Ninja School, everyone's answer was very consistent—

No impression.

A ninja like that became Jiraiya's disciple?

Especially those in Kyohiko's class, many of them couldn't sleep all night.

They pondered over it but couldn't figure out how a previously mediocre and invisible person suddenly became a "genius" who was beyond their reach.

The next day, in the Ninja School, in Kyohiko's former classroom.

"Did you hear? After Kyohiko graduated, the leader of the Jonin team turned out to be Jiraiya-sama."

"What?"

"Really?"

"My father said that yesterday."

The classroom was buzzing.

Sannin.

To them, this person was beyond their reach, but now, someone close to them became their disciple, which felt incredibly amazing. "What's the big deal? I also know Kakashi is one of them!"

Another person said.

A hint of envy flashed in Asuma Sarutobi's eyes.

He didn't choose to graduate this year.

If he had known that Jiraiya would be teaching, if he had known that Kurenai would graduate this year and become Jiraiya-sama's disciple...

"Why!"

The young man couldn't show his sorrowful expression, so he sat by the window, looking out with a melancholic look.

Children have different thoughts.

Same thing.

On this day, the previously unknown "Ryomine Kyohiko" suddenly became the topic of discussion among everyone in the school.

However.

On this day, Ryomine Kyohiko, who was the subject of much discussion, argued with Jiraiya in the Hokage Hall over the mission.

"I'm the team's teacher, I think I can take on C-rank missions directly!"

Jiraiya slammed the table.

Hamano Tatsu had cold sweat on his forehead but still mustered up his courage.

"Master Jiraiya, all new teams must accept D-rank missions. This is the rule, and even you cannot violate it."

He's just a Chuunin.

Facing one of the Three Ninjas, being able to say these words required a lot of psychological preparation.

Jiraiya still wanted to "argue with reason."

Kyohiko stood in front of the task board for a long time, and finally came over and said: "Teacher, D-rank tasks are fine, anyway, they're all contributions to the village."

"What he said is absolutely right. No matter what level the mission is, we're all serving the village. Lord Jiraiya, please don't make things difficult for us." Hamano Tatsu begged for mercy.

Jiraiya smacked his lips and nodded: "Okay, then, let's do the water-fetching task first." Then he left the Hokage building.

"We have Kakashi on our team, so we are more than capable of carrying out C-rank missions. I was planning to go find the old man..."

Jiraiya still felt sorry.

Kakashi and Kurenai didn't respond.

The former follows the rules and anything goes.

The latter had no opinion.

Kyohiko whispered: "Teacher, we can't just specialize. Why don't we do more D-rank tasks? If the number increases, we should be able to take on C-rank. Also, we can train during D-rank tasks, so the difference isn't that big."

"Also."

Jiraiya waved his hand, "Then let's start!"
