The jutsu Orochimaru had mastered were mostly family secrets. Across the entire Naruto world, only Orochimaru and his disciple, Mitarashi Anko, were known to use Snakes. No other ninja seemed to possess such techniques.
"Show me what it can do," Sarutobi Hiruzen said, gesturing toward the training field.
Orochimaru nodded, fixing his gaze on a wooden training post in the field. His hands began weaving signs at lightning speed.
Jiraiya immediately sensed the chakra within Oro...

Unfairly criticized, Jiraiya remained silent.
At the moment, he was pondering how to restore his image in Tsunade's eyes.
There was still some time before she would meet Dan Katō.
If he wanted to stop her from falling for Dan, he'd have to change her opinion of him.
"Jiraiya, we graduated from the Academy at the same time and trained under the same teacher. So why is there such a huge gap between you and Orochimaru?"
Tsunade didn't hesitate to aim her criticism ...

The earthen wall rose only half a meter before halting abruptly.
Jiraiya frowned, stopping his chakra flow, and the wall crumbled instantly into a pile of dirt.
After a full day of grueling practice, he had managed to execute the Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall technique, but he wasn't pleased. The wall rose too slowly, making it practically useless in combat.
If he were in an actual battle, the enemy's attack would have landed before his wall even formed.

After Tsunade left, Jiraiya didn't bother fixing the door—he planned to leave that to her.
He was absolutely confident about defeating Danzo's disciple tomorrow. Besides, Tsunade had promised that if he won, she'd agree to several of his demands. Fixing the door? That would be just one of them—a fitting lesson for her to experience the trouble firsthand.
Returning to his house, Jiraiya made his way to the room where his parents' belongings were stored. When he opened the door,...

Crack!
The sound of breaking stone echoed as the flaming projectile struck. The massive boulder, under the impact of the Fire Release: Flame Bullet, developed fractures. The direct hit left a dent, and the surrounding area turned to a glassy finish—evidence of the intense heat.
Thanks to the oil-infused chakra within the Flame Bullet, the flames continued to burn, radiating scorching heat that slowly melted the stone.

(T/N: Since there's a gap between posting my fanfic on Patreon and later on Webnovel, I'll write the synopsis first. In short, it's about a transmigrator in Jiraiya’s body—just like all my fanfics, where the main character is always a transmigrator.)

Inside Ryūchi Cave.
Madara and Obito sat together, laughing and chatting like a pair of old friends.
In the past, they had gone on wild adventures together.
You could say, after the recent war, the bond between these two had skyrocketed.
"Ah…"
On the side, Sasori was silently repairing his puppets.
The battle had cost him nearly 90% of his treasured collection. The remaining 10%? Missing arms, legs… utterly wrecked.
Though Sasori...

Deep within Ryūchi Cave,
Sasori and Madara stared at the unrecognizable pile of flesh on the ground.
They exchanged glances, both lost in thought.
Madara curiously poked at Hidan's remains.
"This guy's head is reduced to pulp, yet his flesh is still writhing. Is he dead, or… not dead?"
Sasori spoke with absolute certainty.
"Hidan possesses immortality. He's definitely alive... but…"
He paused, gazing at the mass of mangled flesh ...

Hearing Sasori's words, Madara's eyes lit up.
"So, there's such an extraordinary technique in this world!"
Time was running out.
He channeled a layer of chakra into his left hand, preparing to strike the mangled Hidan.
But just as he was about to act, Madara hesitated for a brief moment.
The thought crossed his mind: this "immortal" could kill the White Snake Sage through blood.
...Then, couldn't he also use the same method to kill me?
After all, I've...

[The White Snake Sage disrupted Obito's spatial markings, severing his perception of the outside world.
However, due to the unique nature of Kamui, Obito could still access the Kamui Dimension.
But without coordinates to the Shinobi World, he could only travel back and forth between the Kamui Dimension and Ryūchi Cave.]

As Obito contemplated whether to pull Madara into the Kamui Dimension,
he felt a stirring from the man in his arms.

"That's right," Deidara nodded casually.
"Could you take us to see Sasori-sama? Please!" Temari bowed deeply in earnest.
"Why?"
"Since the fall of Sunagakure, we've been like trees with no roots. Even our father, the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, has vanished."

This marked Deidara's third time in Konohagakure. The same gatekeepers, Kotetsu and Izumo, were standing watch.
This time, the Chūnin Exam delegation consisted of Deidara as the lead, with Sasori as his deputy, accompanied by Kurotsuchi, Suigetsu, and Karin.
Initially, the group alone seemed sufficient. But with so few participants, how could they infiltrate without arousing suspicion? Three contestants with nine spectators? That wasn't going to fly. This wasn't some cheesy group...

Before long, Might Guy stormed out of the Hokage's office, his face a mixture of fury and urgency. His heart was heavy with confusion.
What has become of Konoha? How could something like this be allowed to happen?
"Hokage-sama, with Might Guy's straightforward nature, he's likely heading straight to the Police Force to rescue the detainees," Aburame Ryōma, his ever-calm aide, observed.
Danzo dismissed the concern with a wave of his hand.

The plan to dispatch the entire team was finalized. Next came the selection of participants for the Chūnin Exams. After all, to lower Danzō's guard, appearances had to be maintained.
"Kurotsuchi, Suigetsu, Karin—you three will be the Rain Village's seed team this time," Deidara announced, looking at the trio before him.
This Chūnin Exam, scheduled a year earlier than in the original timeline, meant that at most, they'd encounter Neji, Tenten, and Lee.

The night was as dark as ink.
In the Village Hidden in the Mist of the Land of Water, however, it was anything but quiet.
The streets were ablaze with lights, colorful flags, and lanterns swaying gently in the wind. Crowds filled the roads, arms draped over shoulders in camaraderie. Some held sake bottles, taking long swigs before bursting into hearty laughter.
This scene of festivity was one the village hadn't witnessed in years.

"What kind of power is this? It's terrifying!"
The Kirigakure shinobi kneeling on the ground swallowed hard, their faces pale with fear.
The stench of blood hung thick in the air, making their hearts race uncontrollably. Rivers of viscous, crimson blood pooled on the ground, evoking a primal terror deep within them.
If they hadn't chosen to kneel immediately, they knew they'd have ended up like the Anbu corpses scattered ar...

He could feel two distinct yet enigmatic forces rushing toward him.

Two massive Complete-Body Susanoo spread their wings and soared toward Nagato, wielding their immense chakra blades in a sweeping assault.
Faced with these constructs, born from the fusion of Six Paths power and Sage Chakra, even Nagato dared not underestimate them.

"This is… Wood Release."
Saemon's pupils dilated in shock. Born at the end of the Warring States period, he had never witnessed the legendary power of Hashirama Senju firsthand. Still, he had heard the tales. Yet, here it was—Wood Release, displayed by Kakuzu of all people.
While he stood frozen in awe, a voice from nearby jolted him back to reality.

The abrupt shift in demeanor was startling, but not entirely unreasonable. Respect is mutual, built on aligned values. When those values diverge, conversations inevitably spiral into conflict.
Kakuzu, however, wasn't surprised in the slightest. If negotiations break down, he reasoned, the...

Neither the slug before him nor Tsunade's summoned beast in the future could compare to the original—Slug Sage. Legend had it that when the Slug Sage so much as stretched or yawned, an entire mountain range would tremble as though from a small earthquake. On occasion, fragments of its vast body would fall away, birthing countless smaller slugs. These fragments, imbued with independent consciousness and vitality, could heal and provide invaluable support to others.
