"You must focus on improving your skills. If enemies ever threaten the hard-won peace we've built, you need the strength to protect it," Sarutobi Hiruzen said with righteous conviction.

"Over three hundred."
Seeing Orochimaru's intense curiosity, Jiraiya finally answered. He had hesitated earlier, fearing it might discourage Orochimaru and Tsunade.
"..."
"..."
Tsunade and Orochimaru's eyes widened as their jaws dropped.
Right now, they both wanted to give Jiraiya a good beating.

"You really need to control your wife. She's far too hospitable. Every time you're out on a mission, she invites members of the Anbu to your house. They end up needing to lean against the walls just to walk back to HQ. This is affecting our unit's efficiency," Shimura Danzō reprimanded coldly.

The sight of the Rabbit-Mask Anbu returning with such severe injuries left the team that came to assist him in utter shock.

Jiraiya's blade cleaved through the Earth-Style: Wall, scattering debris everywhere. On the other side, the rabbit-masked Anbu saw a shuriken flying straight at him.

He assumed Jiraiya resorted to a shuriken attack bec...

"Are you saying you'd poison someone's grave?"
The rabbit-faced ninja blurted out, unable to suppress his astonishment.
What a cruel method. The person was already dead, yet you wouldn't even let them rest in peace?
"No, no, no. I dug up his grave instead."
Jiraiya shook his head and clarified, a grin ...

Normally, once the Rabbit-Masked Anbu used his Hiding with Camouflage Technique, combined with the summoning beast's ability to suppress its presence, even advanced sensory techniques wouldn't detect him.
Take Jiraiya's Wind Release: Wind Web as an example. It was a low-level, entry-grade sensory ninjutsu. If the opposi...
