Hyuga Ranmo ignored him, not even glancing at him.
Uchiha Itachi, seeing this, snorted coldly.
He sat to Hyuga Ranmo's left, tilting his head to look at Hyuga Hikaru: "If you dare to mock him again, just try it!"
He glared at him, and Hyuga Hikaru, seeing this, grinned and turned his face away.
In the past six months, even though Uchiha Itachi hadn't started school yet, his name had already spread throughout Konoha.
His taijutsu, Uchiha clan ninjutsu, and other skills had achieved remarkable results.
Even the arrogant Hyuga Hikaru wouldn't dare offend him!
Hyuga Ranmo laughed at this.
Uchiha Itachi glanced at him sideways and said softly, "See you in the West Mountain forest after school tonight!"
He nodded. It had to be said, besides his younger brother, he was probably the first person Uchiha Itachi would protect!
At noon, a beaming Jiraiya was already waiting at the school gate.
He picked him up and ran back to Tsunade's house, where Shizune had already prepared dinner.
After the three of them finished their meal happily, he started again, "Hyuga Ranmo, just show me, just once, let me see something new.
I've never seen anything like it before!
Just show me something casually, and then we can go to West Mountain, okay?
Is that alright?"
"What are you talking about?"
Shizune was going on a mission that afternoon, and she asked while packing her things.
"Nothing, nothing, don't ask questions like a child!"
Jiraiya was afraid Shizune would ruin things, so he immediately retorted.
Shizune sighed, packed her things, and told Hyuga Ranmo to be careful while she was alone in the village, and that if anything happened, she should go find the Third Hokage, etc., before setting off on her mission.
With no one at home, Jiraiya got excited again.
Hyuga Ranmo hadn't had a good rest, and turned to Jiraiya: "Okay, I can show you, but I have one condition, you have to agree!"
"What condition?
Whatever it is, as long as it doesn't violate my conscience or morality, I'll agree!" Jiraiya's eyes lit up.
"You're not allowed to ask me 'why' anymore.
You're not allowed to ask anything.
Can you do that?"
Hyuga Ranmo's expression was serious and earnest.
Jiraiya nodded, holding up two fingers in reply, "Okay, as long as you show me the Seven-Colored Face, I won't ask you anything strange I find on you again!"
"Okay!
I'll be waiting for you at West Mountain!"
With that, Hyuga Ranmo teleported away in another dimension and disappeared.
Jiraiya's jaw nearly dropped to the floor.
He looked around the room, then touched the air where he had vanished, almost jumping up. "What happened?
He... he just disappeared like that?
Right, West Mountain!"
He quickly set off for West Mountain!
At the summit, Hyuga Ranmo sat on a large, protruding rock, waiting for him.
Upon seeing him, Jiraiya asked, "How did you suddenly disappear…?"
Hyuga Ranmo looked up at him. Although his pupils were unfocused, Jiraiya could still read the message in his furrowed brows: "Alright, alright, I won't ask. Let's begin!"
He rubbed his hands excitedly.
Ever since he heard from Fukasaku about a blind child in Konoha who could master Sage Mode without a teacher in half a day, and whose face was painted in seven colors, he had rushed back to Konoha without stopping.
Even on the way, he dreamed of that scene. Now, he finally had the chance to see it.
He took a deep breath, his whole being like that of a devout believer.
Hyuga Ranmo sat on the rock, closed his eyes, and began to absorb the chakra of nature.
The surrounding mountains, trees, rivers, and the hidden specks of chakra in the air gathered together and were slowly absorbed into his body.
Hyuga Lanmo felt incredibly refreshed, a cool, refreshing sensation spreading throughout his body.
When he opened his eyes again, seven-colored chakra appeared on his eyelids.
Jiraiya, seeing this, was so surprised he didn't know how to express himself.
"Wow, no wonder Fukasaku said the world is full of wonders!
This is truly a spectacle.
By the way, Lanmo, is this why Orochimaru captured you?"
"Sir, what did you promise me? Have you forgotten?"
Hyuga Lanmo took a few deep breaths, deactivated Sage Mode, returned to normal, and headed down the mountain.
At this moment, some exercise felt wonderful!
"Alright, alright, I won't ask!"
Jiraiya laughed happily and quickly caught up with him.
The two went back to Hyuga Lanmo's house together.
That evening after school, Jiraiya personally picked him up.
After they had dinner, Jiraiya left home.
Seeing him leave, Hyuga Lanmo hurried to West Mountain, where, as expected, Uchiha Itachi was already waiting.
Just as Hyuga Ranmo was about to greet him, Uchiha Itachi suddenly turned around, launching over a dozen kunai at him.
Ranmo dodged them with a few leaps, but suddenly kunai came flying from above, below, and to his left.
This was Itachi's famous kunai-throwing technique, a flipping and flying motion.
Ranmo flipped and jumped again, then kicked them away, and with another turn, he vanished from the scene.
Itachi turned to look at the woods and gave chase.
The ensuing dodging, flying attacks, and close-quarters combat were a lively affair for the two until, two hours later, thirty miles from Konoha, they stopped fighting and laughed.
"I didn't expect you to improve so much in just six months!
Two hours, and I haven't gained any advantage!"
Itachi smiled, looking at Ranmo.
"You're strong too!"
"A little bit stronger than you..." Itachi gestured with his fingertips, then opened his water pouch and began to drink.
"Tomorrow is the day the school instructors refine chakra.
Do you still want to grow steadily?
Some things are better done faster.
Life is so short.
If we don't hurry, how will we protect the village in the future?"
Hyuga Ranmo looked at the starry sky and said, "I don't want to grow up too fast.
I want to slow down!"
"Slow down?
How can you slow down when you're with me?"
Uchiha Itachi finished speaking, turned around, and began to form hand seals: "Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!"
Seeing this, Hyuga Ranmo quickly responded, "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
A massive water jet erupted, instantly extinguishing his Phoenix Flower Technique before colliding with Uchiha Itachi's Water Release
: Water Dragon Bullet Technique .
Uchiha Itachi stared intently at his Water Release technique; under normal circumstances, this technique was far more powerful than the Water Dragon Bullet.
Besides, Hyuga Ranmo's Water Dragon Bullet had already clashed with his Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique; compared to the Water Release technique he would use later, it was destined to lose.
After making his quick prediction, Uchiha Itachi smiled.
