Chapter 42 Return of the Pearl Princess
"what?!"

Jiu Xing, who was just a spectator, was dumbfounded when he saw Xun surrendering directly.

“This one doesn’t count!”

"You're such a grown-up, white-haired guy, and yet you're still wasting chakra on Kaoru!"

"Isn't it a shame?"

Jiraiya was a little ashamed for using his chakra advantage to exhaust Kaoru's chakra, but seeing that brat jumping up and down in such a hurry, he straightened his chest and looked at Kyuuki with the look of an experienced person, and said righteously:
"A ninja's battle is to use any possible means and use any means necessary."

"Didn't Kaoru also use the Flying Thunder God Technique, which I don't even know how to do?"

Jiraiya's righteous look without blushing or beating his heart made Jiu Xing feel itchy.

Xun looked with curved eyebrows at the young man in front of her who was standing up for her.

However, Jiraiya finally reacted at this time. He looked at Xun behind Jiu Xing with a puzzled look and said:

"By the way, Kaoru, how did you acquire the Flying Thunder God Technique?"

The blonde girl was about to answer the teacher's question, but Jiuxing covered Xun's mouth with her hand. Xun looked at Jiuxing with some confusion.

However, Jiu Xing looked at Jiraiya provocatively and said sarcastically:
"The battle of ninjas is a battle of information. If I tell you the information like this, it would be a huge loss."

Okay, okay, so as Xun’s teacher I have to be on guard too?
"Tell me, you bastard, what do you want in exchange for telling me?"

Jiraiya looked at Jiu Xing in front of him with displeasure, as he was obviously trying to get benefits.

"Actually, it's okay to tell this to Jiraiya-sensei."

Xun gently pressed down Jiu Xing's hand that was covering her mouth and spoke with a smile.

Sometimes she felt that Jiuxing was like a child who had never grown up and was particularly jumpy.

But she unexpectedly liked Jiu Xing like this.

If possible, it would be better to do this to her alone...

"It matters. It matters a lot!"

Jiu Xing looked at the girl in front of him who was looking at him in confusion with a serious expression.

"Just think about it, this white-haired pervert just took you in as his disciple, and then he ran away alone, and he didn't come back even after the battle was over."

"And he's been gone for three years."

"There must be some goblin out there!"

Jiraiya looked speechlessly at Jiu Xing who was trying to sow discord between him and Kaoru in front of him.

The Great Toad Immortal once predicted that his disciple would be the son of prophecy who would change the world.

Originally he thought that the child of prophecy would be the girl in front of him.

But he met a child in the Land of Rain who had eyes exactly like the legendary Sage of Six Paths.

Obviously, the child who possesses the supreme eye technique called the Rinnegan is the true child of prophecy.

I spent three years teaching him, and also taught his two friends.

This is why he hasn't come back for three years.

According to what this bastard in front of him said, Nagato became the little demon who seduced him for three years~~
I didn’t expect that in just three years…

Not only did his gentle, humble, lovely, kind, innocent and beautiful disciple run away with someone...

Even Tsunade, whom I've always dreamed of, is in love...

Jiraiya felt depressed and had a feeling that things and people had changed.

Xun couldn't help but shut his mouth when he saw the boy in front of him speaking for him.

To be honest, she was also very curious about what her teacher had been doing for the past three years.

Anyway, it is impossible that it is a mission. Jiraiya sent me a letter half a year ago and said that he would be back soon.

She also felt a little resentful in her heart. Who would run away just after accepting a disciple? And it took three years for him to run away...

Jiraiya couldn't help but twitch his lips when he saw that his pretty disciple was moved by just a few words from this red-haired brat.

However, Nagato's matter was too important, and Jiraiya didn't even tell Sarutobi Hiruzen, let alone the two little guys in front of him.

As his mind turned, a story that he thought was perfect appeared in his mind. "Since you two want to know so much, I can only tell you..."

A heavy expression suddenly appeared on Jiraiya's face.

...telling a story about tricking children...

"So, that's how it is..."

Kaoru looked at Jiraiya with a touched expression. She didn't expect that her teacher was so great.

Jiu Xing looked at the white-haired bastard in front of him with an expressionless face.

"You said you met a girl who was looking for her father on your way back?"

"Yes, that's right."

Jiraiya stroked his chin and nodded seriously.

"But she is actually the illegitimate daughter of a national daimyo?"

"Yeah, that's right."

Jiraiya was still secretly proud of his perfect story.

"But later, because she trusted others too easily, her token of recognition of her father was swindled away, and she was replaced as the princess?"

A well-shaped mark popped up on Jiu Xing’s forehead.

"That's right!"

"That child was so pitiful. It took me a lot of effort to bring her to that daimyo."

"I originally thought that the person who replaced her was a person who forgot his loyalty only because of his own interests. I didn't expect that she would become the princess of that country by mistake."

Jiraiya looked up at the sky with a sigh.

"Later, with your help, the girl who was looking for her father successfully found her father, and the friend who was supposed to be an ordinary citizen was also adopted as the daughter of the daimyo?"

Jiu Xing looked at the bastard in front of him who lied without thinking. He thought that he would become a novelist in the future because he could tell lies without thinking.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Jiraiya looked at Jiu Xing in front of him with satisfaction.

As expected, I am Jiraiya-sama. It is easy for me to deal with two little brats.

"Would you like me to give this story a title?"

"Just called 'Princess Return of the Pearl'?"

"Will there be a second or third part in the future?"

Listening to Jiu Xing's words, Jiraiya, who was a little proud for a moment, said without thinking:
"Okay, okay, this is a great name. This way, we can continue writing the story..."

Jiraiya had only said half of his satisfied words when he saw Jiu Xing looking like he was enjoying a good show.

Then he stiffly shifted his gaze towards his beloved disciple.

Xun also realized at this moment that his teacher was lying to the children!
Xun looked at his teacher who lied without thinking with an expressionless face, and directly grabbed Jiu Xing's hand and said:

"Don't say it if you don't want to."

"Jiu Xing, let's go."

Xun pulled Jiuxing away without saying anything.

"Eh?"

"No, Xun, please listen to my explanation..."

Jiraiya subconsciously reached out his hand towards the two of them, but froze in mid-air, his face full of confusion.

"Explain you big head!"

Xun's breathless words mixed with the cold night wind blowing on Jiraiya's face.

Hehe, you deserve it~~
Jiu Xing was pulled by Xun and turned around to make a face at Jiraiya.

This damn little devil!
If it weren't for him, I would have gotten away with it!
