naruto is learning lvl 3 of this jutsu.
and when jiraiya says he took 3 years to master it, he probobly meant that the 4th took 3 years to master it at lvl 6.

That is what I thought when I saw ep 87.
I seriously hope you're not spoiling here because it says nothing about levels anywhere in the anime so far. All Jiraiya says is that it took three years to develop and that there are three stages in the training.

Don't forget that the 4th developed the technique so he probably didn't have a specific training method like the one given to Naruto. That means that it's only been Jiraiya so far who has learnt it that way. It is entirely possible that Naruto could come up with a better way (although I'm not betting on it [img][/img] )
yes it does.....
i dont remember if its level 6, but he does say its the second highest level of jutsu.....A rank....
which is waht epoc is referring to
