Mito was going to the training grounds Jiraya and Hokage decided yesterday. She didn't know exactly where they were, but she decided to follow Jiraya's chakra signal. She found him really close to bathouse, which did not surprise her at all. However she surprised Jiraya by taping him on shoulder, he screamed and every woman in hot springs immediately knew where he was he had to run, so he just picked Mito and carried her like sack of potatoes. Mito wondered how many times was she carried like this. It was really embarrassing because it meant, at least to her, that she isn't strong enough. Jiraya run faster and they came to training grounds where Jiraya used henge jutsu to avoid horde of woman. The horde after looking throughout the area came back to bathouse. Mito said:" Ah so this is where training grounds are."
Jiraya seemed to have a tick mark on his forehead :" Don't tell me you didn't know it was here."
Mito said :" Actually I didn't, I just followed your chakra signal."
Jiraya wanted to be done as fast as he could so he asked:" How is your chakra control." expecting negative answer.
Mito answered :" I can almost use healing jutsu. But it is really hard if I have all of my chakra, when I reach about 50 % of my reserves I can use basic ones."
Jiraya's month reached the ground. This girl who is a Uzumaki to have such chakra control. He then asked :" How about your katas for taijustu. "
Mito answered :" I usually use Uzumaki style with genjutsu in it. "
Jiraya was confused why would she use genjutsu in taijutsu. :" Can you show me."
Mito nodded her head and showed her kata and then she showed genjutsu usage. Jiraya was impressed by her skills, she did not seem like a genin so he had to ask:" how about a spar, i will hold back, just to see how strong you really are and in which area you should get better."
Mito smirked and it looked almost evil. She is going to go all out on this fool.
Jiraya didn't expect to much, but he geuss she wasn't a genin level by what she had shown. However he was surprised when she attacked him. She was so fast he thought he was fighting jonin. He still had enough time to dodge everything. Mito didn't let him have any time for attacking. Her taijustu skills were good enough for chunin. Mito led him in false sense of security because she didn't use any genjutsu. When she used it for first time she made a hit which shocked Jiraya. Jiraya did not think he would be hit and her hit was strong. But the next genjutsu infused kick was blocked. Mito leg was held in air, she wasn't scared she just smiled at him and pointed gun like fingers at him:"Water Gun Tehniques". Jiraya was surprised that she managed to use the jutsu. She thankfully had her hands free and enough time to wawe signs. Jiraya let go of her leg hoping to mess her aim.
She didn't miss, he was hit however the hit only made a scratch on his left hand. The scratch was long but it didn't bother Jiraya much. He had to get ready for next attack. Mito seemed satisfied with herself, she wawed her signs earth started rising Earth Style: Rising Rock Jutsu. Jiraya was surprised he didn't expect her to have two affinity. He did not know what she was going to do with this jutsu he never saw this jutsu just float in air usually his enemies would used rocks as soon as they lifted them from the ground. Mito walked closer to him and rocks followed. Jiraya did not see that anywhere was it because her chakra control and massive amounts chakra.
He managed to avoid most of the rocks flying at him, he was surprised by her acurrency, he had to destroy some of the rocks. However he did not see one rock miss him complitly. That rock turned to be henge Mito clone,who attacked him from the behind. Jiraya turned around just in time to kick it strongly. Because his reflex. The Rock Clone was destroyed but Jiraya was in pain he did not expect to hit a rock with his leg.
Jiraya decided to attack her for first time he could see she was good at attacking but how did she defend herself. He rushed forward with unbelievable speed and when he was about to make a hit, a mud wall rose in front of Mito, it did not last long but Mito managed to dodge the hit. She jumped back and unsealed the sword Genma gave her. Jiraya saw slight blush on her face emerge when she noticed that she had brought this one. Jiraya thought she wasn't paying attention so he rushed forwards however she dodge his attack again using the sword as distance measure. She held it in front of herself so Jiraiya had to slow down. Jiraya saw that she was expecting something from him. She asked:" Don't you have a sword."
Jiraya was thinking : " I don't usually use one."
Mito was disappointed :"Then at least, use kunai or should I give you this one."
Jiraiya smirked:" are you giving me advantage of choosing. I geuss you have some better sword if you are giving that away."
Mito said :" You are right. But please don't break this one it was a gift. "
Jiraiya nodded his head and held out his hand. Mito threw him the sword. And she unsealed Samehada. Jiraiya was blown away. Mito said:" What did you forget already I killed the great Suikazan Fuguki. " Jiraiya jolted out his stupper.
Jiraiya wasn't bad with sword however Mito was better. She didn't even try to make it look she wasn't holding back. Jiraiya had a lot of trouble coming close to her and dodging her attacks. Jiraiya had to say:" Why don't we stop this, I don't want to you to have chakra exhaustion."
Mito smirked at him:" You are just scared I guess, but I guess it is fine." Jiraiya throw her sword and she sealed them both. Jiraiya decided to go all out. Mito too didn't hold back. The taijutsu spar was moving fast it was definitely in Jiraiya favor. Mito looked like she was having fun and tons of it. Jiraiya was concerned about who she didn't seem to realize how strong she was.
Mito jumped back and asked:" why don't you use a Sage chakra or mode." Jiraiya laughed :"You couldn't do anything about me then, I said I would go easy on you."
Mito laughed :" You are confident, didn't you say you would go easy on me and yet you used strongest taijutsu."
Jiraiya asked :" Do you know what a Sage can do."
Mito answered :" I guess it is similar to what jinchuriki could do. "
Jiraiya asnwerd :" Well yes jinchuriki who can control themselves and biju. "
Mito smirked :" Then why don't we have a quick spar. "
Jiraiya laughed :" and I am the confident one. "
The air around Mito slowly change becoming more hot and disturbed.
