10: Jiraiya

Jiraiya of the Sannin swaggered into the town, a perverted grin on his face. He had heard that, ever since this town came under a new management, they were opening up a unisex bath house. As he swaggered down the road, he noticed a rather familiar looking blond kid talking to two other kids and an older man. He shook his head. There was no way that his godson was all the way out in Lightning Country.

"Hey, hey! Look, it's Jiraiya-ojii!" The blond shouted, and Jiraiya had no doubts. His godson was all the way in Lightning. Jiraiya smiled, and walked towards them.

"Naruto, what are you doing out here?" Naruto gave a fox-like grin.

"Pervy Sage, I'm forming a c..cu... Roshi-aniki, what was that word again?" Jiraiya looked to the taller redhead, and wondered where he saw him before. The man smiled, and patted Naruto on the head.

"Naruto, it was a 'cult.' You're forming a cult." Naruto grinned again, and turned back to Jiraiya.

"I'm forming a cult!" Jiraiya stared for a second, before laughing.

"Really now? What is this cult about then? Ramen?" Naruto frowned.

"No. However, that will be a side project of mine. Create a cult based on Ramen!" Naruto fist pumped. "My cult is all about worshipping the Nine Biju and their Jinchuriki!" Jiraiya choked on air. "Let me introduce my friends!" He pointed to Roshi. "This is Roshi, the Yonbi Jinchuriki!" He pointed to the other redhead. "That's Gaara of the Desert, the Ichibi Jinchuriki!" He pointed to the green haired girl. "That's Fu-chan, the Nanabi Jinchuriki!" Finally, he pointed to himself. "And I'm Naruto Uzumaki, the Kyuubi Jinchuriki!" Jiraiya felt like fainting. Last he heard from the Leaf, Naruto had no idea about the Kyuubi! 'Sarutobi-sensei has a lot to answer for...'
