"Hey, this isn't funny!" Jiraiya was genuinely terrified.
It didn't matter how Naruto learned Rasengan and developed it to the point of Big Ball Rasengan.
Once this technique was unleashed, even he wouldn't be able to handle it with ease.
"Who are you kidding? Either give up your resistance and come with me to the Hokage Building to surrender, or let's see if you have the guts to take on this move!"
"Sakura-chan, stay back to avoid getting caught in it."
Naruto held the Big Ball Rasengan, as intimidating as if he were holding a nuclear bomb.
How could Sakura not be afraid? Immediately, wind sprang up from the soles of her feet, and she quickly retreated, fearing she would be affected if she was even slightly slow.
It wasn't her fault for being timid; it was the first time she had seen such a massive technique, and Sakura couldn't fathom its power.
Jiraiya also attempted to persuade Naruto to change his mind. He had no intention of taking the Big Ball Rasengan, let alone surrender.
But unfortunately, Naruto didn't give him a chance. After Sakura had retreated to a safe distance, he immediately propelled the Big Ball Rasengan towards Jiraiya.
"You're serious!" Jiraiya was now at a loss.
Left with no choice, he bit his finger, performed a few hand seals, and pressed it to the ground.
Summoning Technique!
With a loud noise, part of the stomach of the giant toad of Iwagakure was summoned by Jiraiya, enveloping him within.
It was then that Naruto's attack arrived.
Boom!
Naruto was merciless, slamming the Big Ball Rasengan into Jiraiya's shield.
An enormous amount of energy was released, and a large number of surrounding trees and rocks were instantly pulverized into a crater with a radius of several hundred meters.
"Incredible! Is this the power the Seventh Hokage aims to achieve?"
From afar, Sakura was filled with shock.
She had never imagined that a high-level ninja could be so powerful once they began to fight.
But she was also surprised. Why would Naruto use such a powerful move against a mere lecherous uncle?
Yet soon, she understood. As the energy dissipated, a large red meatball was revealed in the massive pit.
The power of the Big Ball Rasengan passed over it, and the meatball transformed into white smoke before disappearing.
Jiraiya, with his hands on the ground, was unscathed.
"You actually... blocked it?" Sakura's pupils shrank.
She had thought that the lecherous uncle was likely in danger, and she felt a bit of pity in her heart.
Unexpectedly, he had blocked it with ease, without even a single wrinkle on his clothes.
"Hey, are you trying to kill me?"
Jiraiya stood up, looking very wronged, and shouted, "You've got a lot of nerve, and at such a young age, too! It's too dangerous for you to wield that kind of power!"
He had only stolen the helmet. Even if he had to face consequences, it wouldn't be to this extreme.
Glancing at Sakura in the distance, Jiraiya suddenly understood.
"I know!" He laughed, saying, "That one over there is your girlfriend, right? You guys were just in the hot spring together... But don't worry, I don't have any interest in little girls like her who haven't matured yet!"
Jiraiya practically screamed to ensure Sakura heard his promise.
Sakura, who was a few hundred meters away, blushed deeply upon hearing this.
As expected, he was a shameless and perverted uncle, speaking without any shame at all.
What did he think he and Naruto were doing?
"Naruto, give him a good beating and don't let him go!" Sakura was furious and yelled at Naruto.
Naruto turned to Sakura and gave an "OK" gesture from afar.
"Hey, why are you still fighting? Enough is enough!" Jiraiya felt even more helpless.
They had already discussed this so much, so why wouldn't Naruto let go?
Even if he had peeked into the women's bath, it had nothing to do with Naruto and the others!
"Reveal your true strength. Otherwise, don't blame me for not warning you in advance. Your end will be very unpleasant!"
Naruto approached Jiraiya, taking one step at a time.
When he looked up again, his pupils had transformed into coin-shaped toad pupils, and there was a red shadow around his eyes.
"This sensation..." Jiraiya was stunned for a moment before his expression changed dramatically, and he exclaimed, "Impossible! How can this be? Who are you?"
Sage Mode!
It's actually a perfect Sage Mode, and it's from Mount Myōboku's senjutsu.
Naruto is just a 13-year-old boy!
In Jiraiya's memory, Naruto probably didn't even know his own life story, much less realize the existence of the Nine Tails within him.
Yet now, he was told that not only did Naruto know Rasengan and Big Ball Rasengan, but he could also use the Sage Mode of Mount Myōboku.
What's more, it was flawless, far surpassing Jiraiya's own.
This was simply unbelievable.
"Could I be under an illusion?"
For a moment, Jiraiya couldn't help but doubt his current state and attempted to disrupt the flow of chakra to break the illusion.
But there was no sign of the illusion lifting. Naruto was still in Sage Mode, approaching him step by step.
"Konoha shinobi, Uzumaki Naruto!"
Naruto announced, standing ten meters from Jiraiya, "I'll give you ten seconds to prepare. After that, I'll use senjutsu to attack, Lord Jiraiya!"
Jiraiya's expression changed slightly. Was his identity exposed?
But how did Naruto know about him?
There was no time to ponder that now; he could see from Naruto's expression that he was serious.
Immortal magic wasn't a joke. If he made a single mistake, even as one of the Sannin, he would be punished immediately.
Without any hesitation, Jiraiya used the Summoning Technique to summon two immortal toads - Fukasaku and Shima!
"Little Jiraiya, you summoned us without permission again. I have to rush to cook!"
As soon as he appeared, Shima complained loudly from Jiraiya's shoulder.
Fukasaku, standing on Jiraiya's other shoulder, said in a wise old man's tone: "Don't say that. Since little Jiraiya called us, he must need us."
"So, the enemy is..."
Fukasaku glanced over and was astonished.
Shima had just been complaining out of habit, but when he saw the other side, he was also stunned.
"This is impossible!" Shima shouted with wide eyes: "That feeling is the magic of Mount Myōboku. Who is this child?"
"He's Naruto!" Jiraiya spoke in a solemn tone, "There's no time for explanations. Help me enter Sage Mode, or we're in big trouble!"
Naruto had already raised five fingers and was about to lower one when Jiraiya finished speaking.
Jiraiya understood that this meant he had four seconds left of the ten seconds Naruto had granted him to prepare!
