Chapter 5

Lu Yuan lingered on the character 'oil' for a long time.

This was because Lu Yuan recalled the large 'oil' character on Jiraiya's forehead protector.

Some people joked that Jiraiya's 'oil' meant greasy.

However, Lu Yuan knew that this 'oil' was actually related to some of Jiraiya's special jutsu.

For example, the Oil Bullet and the Toad Oil Flame Bullet.

This made Lu Yuan start to think about how he could cultivate such special abilities in his own leaping frog.

After all, the role of oil was not insignificant.

It was both a control skill and an enhancement skill.

Jiraiya's 'oil' was essentially the secret treasure 'Toad Oil' of Mount Myōboku.

And as a secret treasure of the ninja world, the essence of Toad Oil should also be a combination of chakra energy, similar to a bloodline limit.

Since it was chakra, it could be simulated through continuous chakra combinations.

Although this world did not have chakra, there was a similar spiritual energy.

In other words, as long as he mastered 'Water' and 'Earth' elements, it might be possible to achieve this.

Coincidentally, his pet leaping frog also possessed these two attributes.

As long as it underwent certain training, developing 'oil' might not be a problem.

To maximize the value of 'oil,' it would undoubtedly be enhanced with 'Fire' element abilities.

However, his leaping frog did not currently possess the 'Fire' attribute.

But this could actually be solved.

According to his predecessor's memory, after a pet evolved, it was possible to gain attributes other than its own.

However, the requirements were quite strict: before evolving, it needed to find some 'special items of other attributes' to have a chance of awakening other attributes after evolution.

In other words, as long as Lu Yuan could regularly feed his leaping frog some 'Fire attribute special items' before it evolved into a swamp frog, it was entirely possible for it to possess the Fire attribute after evolution.

Although the leaping frog already had a Jiraiya template,

the system's character template could not immediately grant the loaded object all the template's abilities.

Instead, it was more like a 'hero template' in online games.

The leaping frog, loaded with the Jiraiya template, was equivalent to inheriting Jiraiya's legacy, with a higher match rate leading to a more complete inheritance.

However, whether it could ultimately reach Jiraiya's level would depend on the loaded object's own efforts.

This was why Lu Yuan was now formulating a training plan for his pet leaping frog.

Jiraiya had so many abilities; rather than developing them aimlessly, it was better to develop them systematically, from small to large.

Lu Yuan knew the principle that greed leads to indigestion.

Finally, Lu Yuan formulated a training plan for his pet leaping frog for the next half month.

It was roughly divided into 'Physical Training,' 'Skill Training,' and 'Tactical Training.'

For physical training, it was regular physical training.

For skill training, the main focus was on training the leaping frog to master a few practical jutsu that Jiraiya knew.

For example, two basic jutsu: the Body Replacement Jutsu and the Shadow Clone Jutsu.

The former could avoid fatal damage, while the latter could confuse the enemy.

For tactical training, it was about training the little guy's combat ability and arranging tactics that could maximize his combat power.

If the little guy could complete Lu Yuan's training content, he estimated that within the half month before school started, it would be enough for the little guy to undergo a complete transformation.

After formulating the plan, Lu Yuan put down his pen.

He went to the bathroom and washed his hands and face very 'devoutly,' ensuring that his face was 'pale and terrifying.'

The time to prove my character has come. I hope the template and abilities that appear are useful!

With this thought, Lu Yuan opened his system.

[Ding! Detected that the 'Character Template - Jiraiya' has been loaded. Since it is loaded onto a non-host object, the host can select one ability from Jiraiya's abilities that meets the host's conditions...]

[Current selectable abilities: Transformation Jutsu, Body Replacement Jutsu, Shadow Clone Jutsu, Professional Pornography Identification Ability.]

Looking at the four selectable abilities, Lu Yuan became excited.

Because among these abilities, there was one he wanted. As for the last Professional Pornography Identification Ability, Lu Yuan just chuckled.

Do I need to draw for this ability? I already know it well!

Without hesitation, Lu Yuan decisively chose 'Shadow Clone Jutsu.'

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for selecting Jiraiya's ability - Shadow Clone Jutsu]

[Shadow Clone Jutsu: A unique jutsu that can consume a certain amount of spiritual energy (chakra) to create a clone. The clone disappears after receiving a certain amount of damage, and 50% of the pain experienced by the clone is transmitted to the host after it disappears.]

Regarding the description of the Shadow Clone Jutsu, Lu Yuan was not too surprised; it was similar to what he had expected.

Next, he needed to experiment to see if he could use this Shadow Clone to achieve the training effect that Naruto used with multiple Shadow Clones in his previous life.

However, that could be done later.

[Ding! Detected that the host has completed loading the 'Character Template - Jiraiya.' New template unlocking...]

[Ding! New template unlocked. Congratulations, host, for unlocking the new template - Borsalino]

...

[Template: Borsalino]

[Source: One Piece]

[Quality: Platinum (Diamond)]

[Character Traits: Ambiguous Justice, Lazy, Go-with-the-Flow]

Following the usual procedure, Lu Yuan tried to load the Borsalino template onto himself.

The result was still 'mismatch.'

Forget it, forget it. Anyway, I can load the template onto my pet.

As a beastmaster, what belongs to my pet is mine!

I'm not angry, not angry...

To relieve his depressed mood, Lu Yuan decided to check the status of the previous 'template loader.'

However, when he saw the little guy's behavior in the beast space, his face immediately turned grim.

The little guy was holding a 'Playboy' magazine, reading it with great interest and a very relaxed posture.

That Playboy magazine was the bait Lu Yuan had used to lure the little guy into signing a contract with him.

The little guy, with a high match rate with the Jiraiya template, predictably fell for the trap and signed the contract with him.

But looking at the space, the blue frog with a lecherous expression reading the 'pornographic magazine' gave Lu Yuan a bad feeling.

Jiraiya's 'lecherous' nature won't cause me big trouble in the future, will it...

...

One month later, Jiujiang City, Beastmaster Association Center.

This was the largest beastmaster center in Jiujiang City, covering an area of about five football fields.

It gathered almost all the official beastmasters in Jiujiang City.

The association hall was bustling with people.

"Look, it's Miss Qin Yuexiang. Why is she here today?"

"Stupid, everyone is saying that Miss Qin already has the strength of a Bronze Beastmaster. She's probably here to take the Bronze Beastmaster exam today."

"Envious, right? She's only in her third year of high school next year, and she can already take the Bronze Beastmaster exam. This means that by the time of the college entrance exam, she will already be a senior Bronze Beastmaster."

"Who isn't? According to past years, to become the top student in the city, you need at least a Bronze Six Star. To become the top student in the province, you generally need a Bronze Eight Star, and some exceptional individuals even have Silver-level strength."

"Then it looks like Miss Qin has a good chance of being the top student in the city this year?"

"Of course."

Lu Yuan, in the crowd, listened to the envious comments of the other beastmasters.

His gaze toward Qin Yuexiang became curious.

If he wasn't mistaken, this Qin Yuexiang seemed to be from the same school as him.

They just weren't in the same class, so they didn't have much interaction.

'Forget it, these things have nothing to do with me. I should go and take the Iron Beastmaster exam first.'

Just as Lu Yuan was about to take his leaping frog to the Iron Beastmaster registration area, he suddenly realized that the little guy, who had been following him all along, was suddenly gone!

Lu Yuan quickly looked around and soon spotted a light blue figure.

But when he saw what the little guy was doing, Lu Yuan was stunned.

The little guy was excitedly looking at Qin Yuexiang's long, alluring black stockings, using his currently harmless appearance to sneak toward her.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan broke out in a cold sweat.

'Oh no! Jiraiya's lecherous nature has kicked in!'
