Jiraiya came to the wandering ninja and sat down with the wine, and asked with a smile on his face: âBrother, this wine is my treat, I have something to ask⊠You said that Rock Shinobi is going to attack Konoha. whatâs going on?â
âWho are you? What are you asking this for?â
âIâm just a normal person, just curious.â
The man glanced at Jiraiya, then at the wine in his hand, and accepted Jiraiyaâs reward.
âWhat else is going on, I must be trying to seize the territory while Konoha is severely damaged!â
He took the wine from Jiraiya and said this after taking a sip.
Orochimaru and Sand Shinobi attack Konoha.
This incident is no longer a secret in the ninja world. After all, even Hokage is dead, as long as a normal ninja will hear about it-.
âIf you want me to say that the Rock Shinobi are really ruthless, the whole Ninja Village heard that not even a single corpse was left, and now it is estimated that there are not many Ninjas in the entire Shinobi world.â
In this way, Jiraiya got all the information he knew from the mouth of the wandering ninja at the cost of a bottle of wine.
The mood also became heavy.
Admittedly, there is no evidence to prove that what this man said is true.
But logically it is entirely possible.
Although the grass ninja village is only a small village, it is only a small village relative to the five major countries, and it can actually be ranked in the middle of the ninja world.
It can quickly destroy the grass ninja village with the momentum of thunder and leave no survivors.
Indeed, only the five major countries have such strength.
And if the grass ninja village is gone, the biggest beneficiary is Rock Shinobi.
Because the country of grass and the country of fire border, if the grass ninja village disappears, Konoha and Rock Shinobi Village will have the opportunity to expand their territory.
And Konoha was hit hard not long ago, and even Hokage has not yet been selected, so there should be no such energy and spare power.
So there is a high probability that it is Rock Shinobi.
The purpose also makes sense.
In order to beat Konoha before he recovers.
If thatâs the case, then Konohaâs situation is not good.
Without Hokage in charge, once the war broke out, the consequences would be more serious than Orochimaruâs Konoha collapse plan.
âHahaha, thatâs the way it is, thank you bro.â Jiraiya pretended to have nothing to do with herself and laughed, then stood up, âThen you can enjoy it slowly, and I wonât disturb you.â
Then Jiraiya walked out of the store with a sullen face.
He hurried to a casino and found Tsunade who was in Pachinko.
âTsunade, things are going bad!â
Tsunade stared at Pachinkoâs machine screen without looking back, âWhat happened to make you panic.â
âIâm afraid war is coming, Rock Shinobi has invaded the country of grass, and is approaching Konoha!â
ââŠâ
Hearing Jiraiyaâs words, Tsunadeâs movements paused, then resumed.
âHmph, is it?â
âArenât you worried about Konoha at all?â
âWhy should I worry? It has nothing to do with me, donât block me from looking at the screen.â
Tsunade mercilessly pushed away Jiraiya who was standing in front of him.
For her.
She didnât care whether Konoha was destroyed or not.
Tsunadeâs younger brother Nawaki and his lover died for the sake of Konoha who was protecting him and for the so-called will of fire.
In exchange, the village is getting darker and darker.
What is the reason for protecting such a village?
Might as well destroy it sooner.
âItâs none of your business, didnât you make a bet with Naruto that as long as he can learn Rasenganâs words within a week, you promised to succeed Hokage, do you want to go back on it?â
âHumph! When is the old lady who canât afford to lose? Iâm willing to admit defeat! But the premise is that the kid can really Master Rasengan, you donât really think that the purpose of Fourth Generation is any cat or dog can master it?â
Because Third Hokageâs âsecrecy measuresâ are well done, and Tsunade has no interest in knowing about Konoha.
In her opinion, Rasengan, the ninjutsu that took Fourth Hokage several years to become a master, Naruto canât master even if he spends his whole life.
Thatâs why she made this bet with Naruto.
She didnât plan to go back to Konoha to be a Hokage from the beginning.
âNo, it might be difficult for others Master Rasengan, but Naruto he can.
âYou believe that kid so much? Whatâs the reason?â
âBecause heâs Minatoâs child.â
ââŠâ
Tsunadeâs movements stopped again.
I see.
No wonder he is called âUzumaki Narutoâ and has blonde hair.
No wonder Jiraiya is so obsessed with him.
âHmph, so what? Even his father is dead, what can he do?â
Hearing this, Jiraiya shook her head.
âIt is true that everyone is not good enough compared to Minato, but Minato is Minato, Naruto is Naruto, maybe Naruto is a bit stupid, but I see in him the perseverance that will never give up easily.â
âOne day, I believe that Naruto will become the son of prophecy in this world, fulfilling the wishes of our generation that have not been fulfilled, and making the world peaceful and no more wars.â
âIf you canât do it yourself, pin your hopes on a child, you are really dying, Jiraiya.â
In the face of Jiraiyaâs hard persuasion, Tsunade completely stopped the movement in his hand, raised his head and said to Jiraiya.
Jiraiya had mentioned to Tsunade about the Son of Prophecy.
But in Tsunadeâs view.
This is not the plot of the shounen manga.
What many generations of powerhouses have not been able to do for decades.
Even if Jiraiya really found some son of prophecy.
Nor can world peace be achieved.
Yet at this time.
The embarrassed Naruto came in from the outside with a look of excitement.
He stretched out his right hand, and a crystal clear Rasengan appeared in his hand.
âPervy Sage, look, look! I have learned this technique!â
âHow is this possible, itâs only been a few days?!
Tsunade stood up in disbelief.
Jiraiya was also shocked, but then he laughed again.
âHow about it, Tsunade, itâs what you said to be willing to accept the bet! Come back with me obediently!â
ââŠâ
Tsunade fell silent for a while.
Then sighed.
âShizuka, pack your luggage, we⊠itâs time to go back to Konoha.â
