(A/N: Also don't worry, no lengthy author note planned anytime soon)
**********Jiraiya's POV*******
It's been a week and honestly, I'm getting worried. With his teleportation he should be back quickly enough, and he's been good at keeping his word while also trying really hard.
Well until he gets here I just have an excuse to keep petting his cat Arthur, it's a surprisingly friendly cat and doesn't have a care in the world.
While I was petting him in the living room of his house he suddenly appeared in front of me, making me send Arthur flying off my lap when I jumped up in fright. Before I could gather my bearings he suddenly looked to me and went ”Hel-” before he burst. So he sent a shadow clone?
Wait, it said hel- which I will assume to be help and it burst? With how insane his chakra is, his clone shouldn't burst, even if it uses that insane technique to teleport. Something must be wrong, I have to get to the Hokage and tell him what's going on since we could be screwed here as the enemies have gotten even closer to us. Let's just hope that he didn't get cocky after that fight with the Hokage, especially since he knows it was just a farce.
After making sure that Arthur was fine from my sudden jump(he was, he just took it with stride and laid down where he landed) I ran to the Hokage's office. Once I got there I saw that Tsunade was there, as well as Orochimaru, Minato, the Hokage of course, but strangely enough also the guy from the noodle stand we went to. What?
The Hokage then spoke to me as I entered, ”Ah, Jiraiya good timing. I will assume you received one of Joseph's clones as well then?”I nod my head not really knowing what else to say. Is that why his clone disappeared? He went and spread it's chakra out too much for the teleportation to let it last more than a few seconds after? Wait how'd he find all of us then?
”Now I'm sure that you have questions, all of you, but this is a secret of the highest importance so I'm afraid I will have to ask the two of you to leave. Thank you though for reporting to me as it was helpful to coming to a conclusion as to what happened.” The man from the noodle stand and Minato stand up. Oh yeah, I always forget he's my student with how smart he is... heh, well I wouldn't be surprised if he creates a new and amazing Jutsu one day, just like his sensei did.
After they left I took a seat at one of the chairs that was open and waited for the Hokage to start speaking. ”Well as you all can probably guess, that was Joseph sending clones to ask for help. Now with his chakra reserves they should have been able to complete their message even if they divided as much as they did, which can only mean one thing, they each had to slow down time to get to get the message to us.” That's right, it has an insane draw on chakra. I remember doing it and was only able to keep it up for 15 seconds and that was only enough to make everything move in slow motion, not completely like Joseph said he did.
The Hokage then started speaking more, ”So add that together with the fact that he didn't teleport them to us like he normally would and I think we have reason to believe our enemies have acted, given the time at which it happened it was most likely when he was arriving back. So I want you three to go out and find him, I have a map here that the Anbu prepared of the different camps the enemies are using. You are permitted to kill on this mission but put the bodies into a scroll to bring back and do not, I repeat, DO NOT, get caught. Joseph is an important asset to us, but I will not lose any more of my Shinobi before the fight even starts.” I nod before looking around and seeing everyone have a solemn expression, I probably had one as well if I'm being honest.
After we each grabbed a copy of the map the Hokage nodded to each of us and sent us off. We all agreed to stick together as it would increase our chances of being able to rescue him safely while also being able to make sure that we'll all be safe. The list of enemies is utterly insane, Amegakure, Getsugakure, Hoshigakure, Ishigakure, Iwagakure, Kirigakure, Kumogakure, Sunagakure, and Takigakure. Jeez, they couldn't get the pacifist villages, our allies, or the samurai to go and join too? (A/N: I'll let you guys google those since it's a lot, but basically it is every village that is or was neutral with Konoha save for the ones that were destroyed, are pacifists, the samurai, and allies, hence Jiraiya's comment.)
Well we may as well get started.
****************End Jiraiya POV***************
9,999,999,999 bottles of beer on the wall, 9,999,999,999 take one down pass it around 9,999,999-
'Connection established with host.'
Oh hey, look I'm going and hearing things again. Last time it was big bird though, this time it sounds like that system I thought I had. Hm, maybe next time will be barney? Oh or maybe it'll be finn from adventure time? That sounds like fun, especially since I'm getting lonely.
'...'
Hm, well I guess I really was just hearing things since nothing is talking anymore. Shit I lost my count, well time to start over, hm lets go for 100 trillion bottles of beer this time. 100,000-
'Host. Difficult to maintain connection. Informing, inside Genjutsu. Host must use gift for chance to escape.'
Hm? There it is again? Wait a genjutsu? What's a genjutsu again? It's been awhile since I've had to think... That's right, it's a mind technique, I think... Wait, so I'm trapped in one?
'Affirmative. Recommend opening gift.'
Well okay, open a gift then.
[Select gift to open-
New world gift
Level 5 gift
Level 10 gift
Level 25 gift
Level 50 gift]
Huh, I don't remember getting these. Well let's go with the level 5 gift.
[Host has received-
1x Power draw ticket
1000 SP
1x recover pill
1 great ball (A/N: The pokeball one, so like the blue one, you know?)
3x summon draw ticket
]
Ooh a power thingy? Do I get to play slots? I want the triple cherries!
'Does host wish to draw power?'
Sure! C'mon triple cherries! Or triple sevens. Wait which one was better again? Ah whatever! Just gimme triple something!
[Results of power draw-
Unrelenting Force+ shout
]
[Due to completing hidden objective- Acquire a shout- Skyrim world has been unlocked! 500 SP awarded!]
Wait, skyrim that sounds familiar... Oh yeah, that was a game right? Hm, Unrelenting force plus? I think I remember that but not with the plus attached to it.
[Unrelenting Force+ shout-
Like all shouts it will cause user to become short of breath after use. Unrelenting Force shout sends forth a burst of air combined with slight telekinetic prowess to propel anything in front of user away from user.
Difference between standard shout and plus shout is that plus is 50% stronger, more efficient, and longer ranged while also having the added effect of dispelling illusions that come into contact with it.
FUS RO DAH OOH to use upgraded shout
]
Wait, FUS RO DAH? That's right, I remember it now. Wait, this is stronger? I want to try it out now, wait do I automatically have it now?
'Affirmative'
Let's try it then, ”FUS RO DAH!”
