Naruto: I am Uchiha Shirou

Konoha.

Under the waterfall, watching Naruto train, Jiraiya couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Minato, I never expected Naruto to already start learning wind nature chakra transformation."

Standing beside him, Minato smiled and nodded.

"Over the years, I haven't had much time to personally look after Naruto. Most of his training has been alongside the Hokage and Sasuke. Perhaps it's because Naruto inherited his mother's bloodline.

Since he was young, Naruto's chakra reserves have far exceeded those of his peers, so naturally, he started learning chakra nature transformation earlier than others."

Leaning against the tree trunk, Jiraiya listened to Minato's explanation and couldn't help but sigh.

"I see. It seems I'm running out of things to teach Naruto. I suppose I'll pass on the Toad Summoning Technique to him."

Amid Jiraiya's hearty laughter, Minato nodded with a smile. "Thank you, Jiraiya-sensei."

Though Minato was Jiraiya's student, the Toad Summoning Technique had been passed down to him by Jiraiya. It was only natural, as a matter of respect, to obtain Jiraiya's approval before passing it on to his son.

"However, I think with Naruto's current talent, it won't take him long to master it. In the meantime, let me focus on teaching him practical combat experience and ninjutsu coordination."
