Third Training Ground.
The ground was riddled with potholes.
And these potholes were all created by Minato Namikaze alone.
Minato Namikaze condensed a very deformed blue Rasengan in his right hand, then pressed it hard onto the ground.
"Boom!"
Another pothole appeared on the ground.
Minato Namikaze collapsed onto the ground, panting heavily.
Jiraiya advised from the side, "Take a break, Minato."
Minato Namikaze wiped the sweat from his face and said somewhat dejectedly, "It either can't form or it suddenly explodes; it's very unstable and hard to control."
Jiraiya walked behind Minato Namikaze and began examining the swirl of Minato Namikaze's hair: "I used to hear that when refining Chakra, its direction of rotation should be consistent with the swirl on one's head. According to that saying, then this Ninjutsu can also…"
Minato Namikaze said with a somewhat strange expression, "Isn't that a superstitious saying?"
Jiraiya, however, was very serious: "It's not necessarily superstition. I've always refined Chakra with a right-sided swirl sensation, and the swirl on my head also rotates to the right."
Minato Namikaze asked curiously, "Hmm… So which direction is my swirl?"
Jiraiya's expression was like he was constipated.
Seeing Jiraiya not speaking, Minato Namikaze asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"You have two swirls, one to the left and one to the right…"
Minato Namikaze was incredibly surprised: "Huh! Which direction should I rotate then?"
Jiraiya spread his hands: "I don't know either. Keep resting; you must be very tired. Here."
Jiraiya took out a double-layered popsicle, broke it in half, and asked Minato Namikaze, "Two flavors, which popsicle do you want to eat?"
"Either is fine…" Minato Namikaze frowned slightly: "Huh?"
It was as if Minato Namikaze had been struck by a blunt object. He stared fixedly at the two popsicles in Jiraiya's hand, as if countless inspirations were surging forth.
If it's the same no matter which side…
Minato Namikaze suddenly ran forward.
Jiraiya asked in confusion, "Huh? What's wrong? Not eating the popsicle? Then these two are mine."
Minato Namikaze said excitedly, "That's it, Jiraiya-sensei!"
"As long as I can achieve both directions of rotation simultaneously when refining it…"
In Minato Namikaze's right hand, a perfectly standard spherical blue Rasengan appeared.
Minato Namikaze's voice trembled with excitement: "It… it formed!"
Jiraiya stared in astonishment at the Rasengan in Minato Namikaze's hand, then also began to laugh: "What amazing Ninjutsu talent! I heard that those with two swirls are all geniuses!"
Minato Namikaze was overjoyed in his heart: "I'll name it… Light Wheel Popsicle Swirl Jiraiya Dual Style Rasengan!"
Jiraiya's expression instantly fell, and he couldn't help but retort, "Such a tacky and long name…"
Popsicle, because the inspiration came from a popsicle.
Swirl, because he considered the direction of the hair swirl.
Jiraiya, because he was the one who gave Minato Namikaze the inspiration.
Dual Style, indicating that he combined the characteristics of Chakra rotating in two directions.
Rasengan, the characteristic of this Ninjutsu.
Then adding all of this together…
Jiraiya looked at Minato Namikaze with an expression that was hard to describe. He was a genius, but he had no talent for naming things.
Hearing Jiraiya's retort, Minato Namikaze stared blankly at Jiraiya: "Eh? Is… is that so?"
Jiraiya didn't say much more to Minato Namikaze about the naming issue, because Jiraiya was well aware that Minato Namikaze was terrible at naming things and didn't realize it himself.
Initially, when Minato Namikaze said he wanted to develop a Ninjutsu similar to the Tailed Beast Ball, Jiraiya thought Minato Namikaze was just talking.
After all, that was a Ninjutsu that only a Tailed Beast could release; how could a human possibly do it?
But now, Minato Namikaze had actually developed it.
Although its size was completely incomparable to the Tailed Beast Ball, it at least looked round.
Jiraiya said to Minato Namikaze, "Well then, the development of the new Ninjutsu is temporarily concluded. I have other missions, so I'll be leaving first. You should rest well during this time, understood?"
Minato Namikaze's Rasengan disappeared with a 'poof', and he replied, "Okay."
While Minato Namikaze was using the Rasengan, in the forest of the Third Training Ground, five pairs of eyes were secretly watching.
Uzumaki Kushina whispered, "What are you brats doing following me?"
The straightforward Obito replied, "Watching Minato-sensei flirt… Hiss!"
Shindai stomped hard on Obito's toes, then showed a fawning smile: "Obito meant he wanted to see Lord Minato develop Ninjutsu."
Uzumaki Kushina gave Shindai a strange look, then looked at Rin Nohara and Kakashi: "Then are you two as well?"
Rin Nohara shook her head: "I'm not. It's because the ingredients for the dinner I'm making later and the flowers for the flower arrangement are all in Obito's hands."
Obito looked at the vegetable basket and flowers in his left and right hands after hearing this and immediately became embarrassed.
Kakashi thought for a moment and then casually replied, "I saw they were all coming, so I came to watch too."
Uzumaki Kushina was very displeased in her heart.
In Uzumaki Kushina's eyes, the heads of these four brats were now emitting a very dazzling light, which was very annoying.
After Jiraiya left, Minato Namikaze was packing his things, also preparing to leave.
While packing, he happened to see Uzumaki Kushina peeking out.
Minato Namikaze said in surprise, "Kushina? Why are you here? Is this okay?"
Uzumaki Kushina, who had been discovered, immediately became extremely embarrassed.
Uzumaki Kushina glanced sideways at her surroundings; Shindai and the others were gone, hiding in another patch of grass.
Uzumaki Kushina's eye twitched.
These brats! When she needed them, they just ran off!
Since Minato Namikaze had discovered her, Uzumaki Kushina had no choice but to walk out.
Uzumaki Kushina scratched her head and gave a dry laugh, "Oh, uh… The Sandaime said I could leave the barrier. This is special permission I got from him…"
Uzumaki Kushina didn't dare to look Minato Namikaze in the eye at all.
Minato Namikaze was not at all suspicious and believed her directly: "Oh, is that so!"
Shindai explained to Obito beside him, "See that? Even though Lady Kushina's lie was so clumsy, Lord Minato believed it without even thinking. That's a typical love-struck idiot."
Obito suddenly realized: "So that's what a love-struck idiot is. Then I'm not a love-struck idiot."
Shindai looked at Obito disdainfully, then said, "Rin just said she wants to go on a date with you tonight."
Obito immediately became incredibly excited: "Really?"
Shindai rolled her Byakugan: "Fake, I'm tricking you. You're a love-struck idiot in the late stages, diagnosis complete."
Kakashi watched Shindai and Obito's interaction speechless. It was a good thing Rin Nohara's attention was currently on Uzumaki Kushina and Minato Namikaze, otherwise the truth would have been revealed long ago.
