85 Pervy Sage

After returning from the wave village nothing major happened on the way to Konoha. So without any problem, Naruto and came back to the village pretty quickly than expected.

In the way, Sasuke asked Kakashi to train him because he didn't want to get help from Naruto as he now got 2 things powering him.

One he wanted to find his elder brother for answers or revenge.

Two he wanted to defeat Naruto although they didn't fight and he even got defeated by Hinata but he still wanted to defeat Naruto because he understood even after being the same age as him Naruto was way ahead of him, even more.

The four captured Ninja from Kiri was sent to the prison but Naruto sends them to a special prison where they wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

Sasuke after knowing Hikari when she removed her mask and showed him her face they started to talk among them and he even smiled with her time to time. After sending her to the person he goes to meet her time to time.

Konoha...

Hokage office…

Currently, Kurenai, Kakashi, and Naruto are standing in front of the Hokage desk after finishing their report about their mission and waiting for further notification.

"So there is some kind of artificial transformation or experimentation on this mission. " Hiruzen said after pondering a little.

"Yes, that should explain because without any "Biju" there is no way to have that kind of transformation.  " Naruto replied with full of seriousness.

"when he disappeared after burning with his own lightning chakra it should be some kind of curse mark," Kakashi added on the back.

"Yes, it could be like the one we see in the blood person by Mui. " Hiruzen said then like thinking something he looked at everyone while saying"and it could be stronger than that as it might have been triggered by some other way and the swords must have been summoned back to whoever was behind all of this with a "Reverse summoning". Jiraiya do you know something about this."

When Hiruzen said this Jiraiya entered the room through the windows because he was staying behind the windows to hear the report all along he knew and heard about everything that they talked about in the room. So when Hiruzen called for him he knew it's about time he showed himself.

"Sorry sensei I have no information on this issue but I also agree that someone or some organization might be behind this. Although Orochimaru is not a person who can be treated I don't think he is capable of making something like a "Tail beast". If he could I think he would have already attacked the village. " Jiraiya replied while showing a face full of wisdom, well that's what he thought but everyone except Kakashi in the room was able to find out he was trying to show off but one thing for sure his analysis are reasonable but Naruto and everyone also had the same thought. While Kakashi was thinking about something else.

"So in few words, we don't have enough evidence to find out the forces behind scenes currently? " Hiruzen replied then looked at Naruto and said, "Ok enough with that Jiraiya will look into it" when he looked at Jiraiya, he nodded in agreement and continued further" Jiraiya this is Naruto Uzumaki, Minato, and Kushina's son you know the rest." then he again looked at Naruto and said "Naruto this is one of the three legendary Sannin also my student Toad sage Jiraiya (Sarutobi)"

[A.N: I really don't know if he is Sarutobi or Senju but he has a deep connection with Sarutobi Hiruzen, so, for now, I am going to stick with it.]

"So you are Minato's son, that little kid look at you how big you have become.…. " Jiraiya was preparing to give a pose and start acting cool again to impress Naruto but

"So this how the Pervy Sage, the one who wrote the books that Kakashi reads openly and hides that creepy smiles under his masks all the time???" before Jiraiya could finish his sentence Naruto looked down on him and said with a cold voice.

"Hey, that's not a nice thing to say, kid!!!" Jiraiya said getting angry and shout at him.

"I don't smile creepily while reading... " Kakashi also complained.

After a little arguing, they had stopped by Hiruzen as they prepared for the main topic that Jiraiya was called in the village.

"So, can you help me find her? " Naruto asked Jiraiya with a serious tone.

"Of course kid, I can find her, hell I even know where she is currently. After all, I always keep a tab on her location all the time. Don't look down on the biggest information network of the land which I have? " Jiraiya replied proudly.

"If you always keep a tab on her and know where she is then more like you are a stalker then an informer and if Gramps had already told you about me then we all know who has the biggest information network here… " Naruto replied anyway.

"That, I, you… " Jiraiya couldn't reply properly.

"So, if you are stalking her then is it possible that you have a crush on her but you aren't able to get her??? " Naruto asked with a smile.

"I, i, I…" Jiraiya was unable to replay again.

"So you do, heh??? " Naruto asked again.

This time as Jiraiya didn't want to replay to Naruto he thought of diverting the question as he found something"Can you use nature chakra???"

"Nature chakra??? Why do you ask? " although Naruto knew Jiraiya was changing the subject but nature chakra was more important than any random subject for him…

"Yes Nature chakra and I am asking you because I feel a huge pull of Natural Chakra around you but I can feel you in sage mode or anything.  So, can you use it? " Jiraiya asked again.

"No, I don't think I know about it but I can't use it or feel it. " Naruto answered while thinking 'Although I can't use "Natural Chakra" but I can use it with "Fuinjutsu" and formation with my technology. '
