Chapter 425 The weak succumb to fate! The strong create their own fate!
Glancing at Jiraiya, who had fallen silent, Fujiwara Tetsuya once again immersed himself in his own panel.

With his current growth rate, reaching the Ultra-Kage level before the Third Great Ninja War was not too big of a problem.
As for the Mangekyo evolving into the Eternal Mangekyo...
Perhaps because the power contained in his two pairs of Mangekyo far exceeded the capabilities of ordinary Mangekyo, the cost he had to pay to exchange for a pair of Mangekyo of the same origin from the System... was almost sky-high.
Before these eyes could evolve into the Eternal Mangekyo, acquiring the power of the First Hokage was essential.
"Um..."
In the eerie silence, the bar owner looked at the night outside and nervously approached Fujiwara Tetsuya and Jiraiya.
"Hmm~"
"Oh~ It's the owner! What, is something wrong?"
That hesitant voice successfully brought Jiraiya and Fujiwara Tetsuya's thoughts back.
As for Tsunade, she was still sprawled on the bar table, sound asleep... without any grace to speak of.
"Um~ Lord Tetsuya, Lord Jiraiya, it's already late, all the other guests have left, and the shop is closing..."
Upon being reminded by the owner, Fujiwara Tetsuya and Jiraiya seemed to snap back to reality, looking around the shop... The once lively bar had become deserted at some point, and now, besides the three of them, only the bar owner and his recently adult daughter nearby remained.
"Heh~ I'm so sorry, I was having such a good time drinking today that I forgot the time and kept you waiting."
"Senior Jiraiya, we should go..."
After pulling tens of thousands of Ryo from his Ninja pouch and handing them to the bar owner, Fujiwara Tetsuya turned and gestured towards Jiraiya.
However, Jiraiya's simple-minded nature seemed to miss Fujiwara Tetsuya's meaning.
"Um, Lord Tetsuya, you've given too much... too much!"
"Keep the rest, consider it compensation for you and your daughter... working overtime for the three of us."
"After all, for girls, staying up too late isn't good for their skin."
What he said was innocent, but the implication was clear... Under the gaze of Jiraiya and the bar owner, the bar owner's daughter's cheeks turned visibly red... Her eyes were fixed on Fujiwara Tetsuya, lost in who knew what wild thoughts.
"Tetsuya, perhaps... I should retract what I said earlier."
"Minato, he might never catch up to you in this lifetime. You're right... Minato is growing, and you are growing too, and... your growth rate is far faster than Minato's."
On the empty street, apart from the occasional patrolling Ninja, only Jiraiya, supporting Tsunade, and Fujiwara Tetsuya, casually trailing behind him, remained.
Although it was a bit dry and cold, this peaceful atmosphere of life was indeed pleasant!
"Senior Jiraiya, you're not trying to tell me that you were silent for so long just thinking about all this nonsense, are you?"
After glancing at Jiraiya, Fujiwara Tetsuya clasped his hands behind his head, gazing quietly at the bright moon in the sky, his tone gradually becoming leisurely.
"Senior Jiraiya, although you are Minato's teacher, you don't represent Minato, and you... also have no right to assert what heights Minato will reach in the future."
"Oh, I almost forgot, you and that group of toads on Mount Myōboku believe in destiny."
"But destiny... I don't believe in it."
"In my opinion, only the weak believe in destiny, entrusting everything to it and submitting to it."
"True Strong become stronger through their eternal conviction, constantly challenging what the weak call destiny, thereby having infinite possibilities... controlling so-called destiny in their own hands and creating destiny."
"In my opinion, Minato... Senior Orochimaru and I, we all belong to this type of person..."
Watching Fujiwara Tetsuya speak eloquently, Jiraiya's face completely darkened after deep thought.
This mischievous brat, while making a point, didn't forget to imply something about him?
Not only was he implying something about him, but he was also implying something about his quest to find the Child of Prophecy... Jiraiya's actions were destined to disappoint Fujiwara Tetsuya's hopes.
Although Jiraiya was also quite drunk, he didn't do anything inappropriate with Tsunade after she was returned to the Senju Clan, like taking advantage of Shizune's sleep.
After settling Tsunade, he simply opened the door and window... and ran headlong in the direction of the Sarutobi Clan.
"Rasengan?"
"A Rasengan infused with Lightning Release nature transformation?"
"Jiraiya, so... you came to see me late at night, disregarding the Anbu's warnings, and woke me up from my sleep just for this?"
In the courtyard, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the reeking Jiraiya, his face gradually darkening.
He was pulled from his world with Biwa Lake just for this?
If it weren't for being in the Sarutobi Clan, if it weren't for too many Anbu around, and if Jiraiya weren't his disciple, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt he might not be able to control his anger and would severely punish Jiraiya.
"Yes, exactly!"
"But~ *hiccup*! Teacher, you don't seem surprised?"
"Jiraiya, what do you think is so surprising about this?"
"Minato has good talent, and the brat Tetsuya also has good talent, and... that brat has fought with the One-Tail Jinchuriki, Four-Tails Jinchuriki... and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki multiple times."
"If Minato can get inspiration from the Nine-Tailed Tailed Beast Ball, the brat Tetsuya... can too."
"If you really want Minato to become stronger, then focus... Tomorrow I will send someone to call Minato and Kushina over, and for the foreseeable future, you will be a Jonin team leader for a period of time, to help them both grow up as quickly as possible."
