Jiraiya looked very unhappy.
Haru shrugged and said "The three of you have been under the Third Hokage for so long that you have become Chunin. Now I may not be your opponent, so in order not to lose too badly, I will naturally choose a weaker opponent."
He was not talking nonsense. He really felt that he might not be able to beat Jiraiya, especially when he didn't use the Sharingan and ninjustu at full strength.
He didn't have this feeling before, until recently when he was training under the elder Itachi, he realized how important it is to have someone to lead.
Jiraiya said dissatisfiedly: "Damn it, you dare to look down on me, get ready to get beaten up."
...…
...…
In a small forest far away from the center of Konoha, under the blue sky and white clouds, under the witness of Orochimaru and Tsunade, Haru and Jiraiya made a seal of opposition.
The last time they did this was when they were in the ninja school. In a trance, it seemed as if they had returned to the carefree days of school.
In order to avoid unnecessary injuries, both of them used bare hands and could not use offensive ninjutsu, such as fire escape.
Jiraiya raised his eyebrows, bent his four fingers inward twice, and made a provocative gesture: "I am a Chunin now, you are not even a Genin now, I will let you make the first move."
Jiraiya is very arrogant now.
Provoked by Jiraiya, Haru will not rush forward stupidly. He made a seal with his hands, and with a bang, a cloud of white smoke came out from his side.
Seeing this, Jiraiya put away his contemptuous eyes and looked cautious.
He is casual on the one hand, but cautious on the other, and this aspect makes him a natural ninja.
Ninjas fight intelligence wars, and it is reckless to act rashly without knowing the details of the other party.
Jiraiya was such a person in the past, but under the constant teachings of the Third Hokage, he has almost corrected this bad habit and started to fight with his brain.
Clone Technique?
Or Shadow Clone Technique?
Seeing Haru summon a clone as soon as he came up, he inferred that it was the latter.
Using shadow clones to test the opponent's strength is the most basic operation of shadow clones.
Jiraiya analyzed it this way, but what he didn't expect was that Haru didn't order the clone to rush towards him, but rushed straight towards him with his real body.
While Jiraya was distracted because of different ta tic used by Haru, the opponent had already approached and attacked with a punch.
In a panic, Jiraiya raised his arm to block and successfully resisted haru8 attack.
Orochimaru, who was watching, keenly noticed Haru's intention and couldn't help but exclaimed: "So that's how it is, you are worthy of being Haru-kun."
Tsunade analyzed with a little appreciation: "Compared to the clone technique, the shadow clone has many advantages, but it has a fatal disadvantage. It consumes a lot of chakra. Haru summons the clone technique and keeps it still. Jiraiya will find it difficult to distinguish whether it is a shadow clone or a clone technique."
"And there is another advantage of arranging the clone technique like this. During the battle, Jiraiya will need to be vigilant at all times to see if the shadow clone attacks, thereby distracting him. "
Looking at Haru who was fighting with Jiraiya, he sighed: "But even so, I didn't expect that Haru could be so evenly matched with Jiraiya in physical skills in this state. After all, he is now..."
Having said this, Orochimaru stopped in time and did not continue to speak, in order to avoid being overheard.
Jiraiya is weak, that is relative to him and Tsunade .
He has been trained by Sarutobi Hiruzen, and his skills are not weak, otherwise he would not have been able to become a Chunin.
Jiraya jumped back and formed seals to perform ninjustu.
Haru also made hand signs and performed a ninjustu that he learned recently
"Water Style: Hiding in Mist Technique."
