Naruto: Legend of Jiraiya

Chapter 85
"What! Old man, why don't you accompany me to investigate in person?" Zilai never expected that the old man would have such an intention. Before, he was thinking about the reason. It turned out that the seven-day limit that the old man said was to hand over Hokage!

"Old man, I love you so much... Do! Do!..." Ji Lai also hugged Master, so moved...

Sandai felt awkward and told him not to be childish. "The last time you came back, I kept the strange things you said on my mind. This time, there is such a big incident in the country of rain. I am really worried that you will go alone, but I don't want to send the younger generation of talents to go there." Taking risks, so I decided to accompany you personally! What do you think?"

"Of course that's great! With you always here, Hanzo will definitely be found and the truth will be found out!"

The third generation took a few puffs of cigarettes, put away the hookah, and said, "Let's go without further ado!"

"Now?" Zilai also thought to himself, the old man's work efficiency is too high, so he asked him: "Have you eaten lunch? Don't do things hungry!"

Sandai laughed and said, "When you eat ramen, I've already finished it."

"Ah? You... You also ate at Yile Ramen? Why didn't I see it!"

Sandai said: "You are too busy looking at the notice, of course you won't pay attention to me!"

Zilai also thought to himself, no wonder the old man found me so quickly, he expected me to come back here to read the notice, and was waiting for me early in the morning. "Hey, I said old man, since you have such a plan, why do you keep me waiting for so long, you just told me before, why waste time..."

The third representative looked serious, and said to him: "Zilaiye, the investigation is the investigation, but based on my years of experience, I am afraid that your three disciples are gone. I wanted time to smooth the grief in your heart, but I saw you just now. You look like that, so I decided to accompany you on a trip to find out the truth!"

It was only then that Jiraiya realized that the old man was waiting here to see his own attitude. If I didn't want to persist in the investigation, the old man would not accompany me, and the matter would be over; but on the contrary, the old man would also Will strongly support me to find out the truth!Hey, what an old baby, at this age, you are still trying to find out...

"Okay, let's go, Ziraiya!"

"Oh!…"

The master and the apprentice avoided the crowd and arrived at the entrance of the village.When the gatekeeper saw Sandai coming, he was startled at first, and hurriedly asked: "Master Sandaimu, you, why are you here?"

The third generation said that he and Zilai also went out to do errands, and everyone couldn't believe it.It is common for Jiraiya to go out to do errands by himself, and it happens occasionally even with Sannin together, but this is the first time everyone has heard that Sandai accompanied him.

Seeing that they were about to leave, the gatekeeper suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly stopped them, saying, "Wait a minute, you two! Here is a letter for Master Ziraiya..."

Ji Lai also received the letter, and found that it was sent from the Land of Rain, he hurriedly asked, "When did this letter arrive?"

The gatekeeper said: "I just arrived this morning. The messenger said that the country of rain was under martial law a few days ago, so I couldn't deliver it in time..."

Ji Lai also checked the date, it was three days ago, so he hurriedly opened it to check.The sender was a stranger who said he was a fisherman from the Land of Rain. The letter roughly said: A few days ago, the fisherman found a seriously injured girl in the river, and she was still alive after being rescued. He wrote a letter and asked Toad to send it away.But that night, the girl died because of her injuries.Before the girl died, she entrusted the fisherman to bury herself in one place, and asked him to send a letter to a man named Zilaiye, explaining the place of burial...

Ji Lai also read the letter and was silent for a moment.Said to the third generation: "Let's... let's go back."

When the third generation heard that it was a letter from the Land of Rain, they guessed that it was almost inseparable. Looking at Jiraiya's expression, he could conclude that the three children of the Land of Rain might have really died.

"Jiraiya, come out with me for a walk, okay?"

Zilai didn't say a word, he lowered his head and followed behind the third generation, the master and apprentice walked out of the village and into the woods.

When he got to a place where no one was around, San Dai comforted him and said, "Just say what you want to say..."

With trembling arms, Jiraiya took out the letter and showed it to the old man: "It's over, it's over... Konan is dead, Yahiko is dead, Nagato is dead, they were all killed..."

"Who did it?" Sandai asked.

Ji Lai also shook his head: "It wasn't mentioned in the letter."

The third generation said: "How about... I will accompany you to visit her grave?"

"No, there's no need...old man, I want to be alone..."

The third generation knew that he was sad, so he said that he would go back first and look for him in the village if he had something to do.Jiraiya waved his hand to say goodbye to him, sat on the ground alone, closed his eyes, and recalled the time in the country of rain.

Before I knew it, it was sunset and dusk, and Zilai was half leaning on the tree trunk, without saying a word, only hearing someone calling him from below: "Teacher, teacher..."

At that moment, Jiraiya's eyes suddenly blurred, as if he saw Yahiko, excited, he turned over and jumped to the ground.Look carefully, that person is not Yahiko, but Namikaze Minato.

"Teacher, Kushina has prepared food and drinks, saying that he wants to celebrate my becoming the fourth generation of Hokage. Would you like to come with me?"

Jilai also saw Minato, and his mood improved a lot.Ask him: "Did the old man tell you to come to me?"

Minato smirked: "Nothing can escape the teacher's eyes! The third generation is also at my house, waiting for you!"

Zilai didn't want to spoil the fun, so he nodded in agreement.

Minato said: "Okay, let's go back now! Flying Thunder God Art..."

'Fing! ...'

Jiraiya also came to his house, seeing Kushina and Midai there, said with a smile: "It's just a meal, there's no need to use Thunder God, Minato..."

Minato smiled and said nothing, but Kushina said: "Use it, use it, or else this dish will be cold when you come back! Teacher Jiraiya, come and try my handicraft, a newly learned dish!"

Zilai also saw the three of them, and immediately thought of Xiaonan and the others. He remembered that the four of them ate together at that time, talking and laughing, carefree.But now...

Seeing him in a daze, the third generation shouted: "Come, come, Zilai, sit next to me, and let the young couple sit over there!"

Minato also gave way, pulled out the chair for the teacher, and supported him to sit next to Sandai.

The third generation picked up the wine glass and said to everyone: "To the youngest Hokage, let's have a drink!"

"Dry it! Cheers! . . . "

Everyone clinked their glasses to celebrate, congratulating Minato on becoming Hokage.

The third generation said: "I was ordered to become Hokage back then, but I was nearly 20 at that time. Like Minato, I became Hokage in my 1s. Konoha was still No.[-]. At this age, such a person Talent, I am afraid that there is no second in the ninja world!"

Jiraiya also praised: "This kid is the most suitable person to be a ninja in history! Not only is he handsome, but he is also very smart. The only shortcoming is that he married such a stupid wife..."

Jiu Xinnai grimaced and complained, "It's because he's too smart, it's not me who is stupid! Teacher Ziraiya!"

Everyone talked and laughed, drinking until midnight before dispersing.

On the way, the third generation asked the apprentice: "Do you have any plans for the future?"

Jiraiya let out a long sigh and said, "I want to find Tsunade..."
