The man standing at the top of the ninja world

For three seven-year-old children, the difficulty of finding three Konoha ninjas in the war-torn Rain Country is definitely a narrow escape.

The location where Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade are located must be a war zone, and it is the core of the war zone. If Nagato and the three of them encounter a random ninja in a war zone, they will most likely be unable to resist. He was killed casually by the other party.

In addition, Hanzo, who was fighting against the Sannin, also posed a great threat to them.

Sansho Hanzo may not be the strongest ninja in the current ninja world, but he is definitely the most dangerous ninja to ordinary people. The poisonous gas released by his psychic beast Sansho is a super AoE that does not distinguish between friend and foe, let alone fire. Among the ninjas from the three major kingdoms of Tofu, even many ninjas from the Rain Ninja Village died from the poisonous gas of Sanshouyu. Even Hanzo himself might be poisoned to death by the poisonous gas if he did not wear a gas mask. .

If the three of them didn't have a few gas masks left by Yahiko and Konan's parents, they would never dare to go deep into the battlefield to pursue the Sannin.

In addition to these, the location of the Sannin is also difficult to determine. The three children do not have any tracking skills at all, and it is impossible to track a master like the Sannin. However, now that we know that the Sannin is a ninja of Konoha, it is With a vague goal, just look for it on Konoha's battlefield.

The only thing that makes Nagato feel regretful is that although the original book of Naruto shows the scene of Yahiko and the three finding the Sannin, it does not draw the search process. Therefore, even if he is familiar with the plot, there is nothing he can do about it. What role does it play.

All Nagato could know was that in the original book, the three of them found the Sannin in a cave, so on his suggestion, they also searched for some caves along the way.

Perhaps they were lucky. Although it was very hard for the three Nagatos to cross the battlefield, they never encountered ninjas. At most, they saw a few ninja corpses.

"Phew, I'm so tired. The sky has darkened. Nagato, Konan, let's rest here today."

After walking into a cave in a mountain range outside the Land of Rain, Yahiko said to the two people behind him.

Nagato and Konan nodded, neither of them had any objections.

After sitting down, the three of them took out the bread and ate it silently.

Nagato's mood was a little low, and he was a little absent-minded while eating the bread. More than a month had passed since he set out to look for the Sannin, but they still couldn't find the Sannin. He could not suppress a trace of anxiety in his heart.

During this period of time, he has thought a lot about the future. He has also made some plans about how he should develop and how to fight against Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu hiding in the dark. However, the premise of all these plans must be based on finding the Sannin. Basically, if he can't find the Sannin, then no matter what he thinks, it will be in vain.

Yahiko next to him was not much better than him. He was eating bread in his mouth, but his eyes were a little dazed. Although Yahiko had a very determined character, he still couldn't find any trace of the Sannin after so long, and he was inevitably a little frustrated.

Just as the two of them were eating bread in silence, Konan, who was sitting at the entrance of the cave, suddenly turned his head and shouted eagerly to the two people in the cave: "Nagato, Yahiko, you two come quickly, I saw those three Konoha ninja."

Nagato and Yahiko were startled and did not bother to eat any more bread. They quickly ran to Konan and looked in the direction of her finger. Sure enough, they saw three figures of two men and one woman walking under the mountains in the distance. In a cave.

It was really hard to find anywhere, and it took no effort to get it. Nagato couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He didn't expect that the Sannin who couldn't find it would automatically come to him.

"Great, we've been out for so long and finally found them." Yahiko's eyes showed excitement. He looked at his two companions with a very excited tone, "Nagato, Konan, without further ado, we'll go find the three of them right away. Just one."

Nagato and Konan looked at each other, nodded, and said in unison: "Yes."

On the other side, the Sannin walked into the cave. Tsunade and Jiraiya found a place to sit down, took out the dry bread they brought with them and ate it, while Orochimaru stood at the entrance of the cave, watching the heavy rain quietly.

The expressions on the faces of the three people were a little complicated.

The war between Konoha and the Country of Rain is coming to an end. In this battle, Konoha defeated the Rain Ninja and became the victorious party.

However, although Konoha won, in the battle between the three of them and Hanzo, they were completely defeated, and they were even given the title of Sannin by Hanzo.

Hanzo's strength is even greater than the three of them joining forces. If Hanzo and the Rain Ninja Village couldn't afford to anger Konoha now, he would even have a chance to kill the three of them.

The three of them were silent for a moment, and Tsunade was the first to speak: "Hey, Jiraiya, what are you going to do after the war is over? Are you going to travel again?"

"Maybe." Jiraiya smiled, "Let's start a new journey and then write a book."

Tsunade looked at the ground and said in a low voice, "Why can't you stay in the village?"

"Because, I have a hunch that we will meet again."

"Is it...the man of destiny you mentioned before?"

Just as Jiraiya was about to answer, he saw Orochimaru, who was watching the rain, suddenly walking towards them and giving them a wary look.

At the same time, the two of them also heard subtle footsteps approaching here.

Even if the three of them are not sentient ninjas, the actions of the three children cannot be hidden from their senses.

After listening carefully, Jiraiya whispered: "It's a child."

Orochimaru glanced at him and said in a hoarse voice: "Even a little mouse is a part of the Kingdom of Rain and cannot be taken lightly."

In the silence, Tsunade suddenly shouted loudly: "Come out, stop hiding."

A few seconds later, Nagato and the other three walked out from behind the wall and walked up to the Sannin.

Yahiko stretched out a hand towards the three of them, "Please give us some food."

"Where are your parents?" Jiraiya asked aloud.

"Killed by ninjas in the war."

Jiraiya's eyes trembled, he was silent for a few seconds, and handed all the remaining dry bread to Yahiko.

"These are all for you."

"Tsunade, give them your bread too." After giving all his bread to Yahiko, Jiraiya looked at Nagato and Konan, and then said to Tsunade sitting next to him.

"Hey, but I still want it." Tsunade looked at Jiraiya reluctantly. You must know that she hadn't eaten anything for a whole day, and she had consumed a lot of energy in the decisive battle with Hanzo just now.

"Give it to them." Jiraiya's voice was low.

Tsunade looked at Jiraiya's serious expression, hesitated for a few seconds, and handed the bread in her hand to Konan.

"It's all for you."

"Thank you."

At this time, Orochimaru, who was standing aside, glanced at the three of them and said softly: "Okay, let's go, it's time to go back."

"Ah."

Tsunade got up first and followed Orochimaru out. Jiraiya hesitated for a moment, but still followed the two.

......

The Sannin walked slowly in the rain. At the same time, they could feel without looking back that after the three of them walked out of the cave, the three children also walked out and followed them.

After walking like this for a while, Tsunade suddenly stopped, turned around and shouted impatiently at the three people following her: "All the food has been distributed to you, why are you still following us?"

Xiaonan walked up to her and held out a paper flower in both hands, "Thank you. This is our return gift for you."

"This is" Tsunade looked at the paper flower in surprise.

Jiraiya took a look and admired: "It must be folded out of the wrapping paper of the dry bread just now. It's so beautiful."

Tsunade took the paper flower and the expression on her face softened a little.

At this moment, Yahiko suddenly said: "Please, please teach us ninjutsu. You three are ninjas of Konoha, right?"

Yahiko's words were so sudden that Jiraiya and Tsunade didn't react for a moment and looked at him in shock.

"Kill them."

Orochimaru's hoarse voice sounded, and he who was walking at the front turned around and glanced at the three of them with his golden pupils, with a slightly nostalgic expression on his face.

"I have seen many war orphans like this, and their final endings were very miserable. Let's just kill them now. This may be a good thing for them..."

"Stop talking, Orochimaru." Before Orochimaru could finish speaking, Jiraiya interrupted him sharply.

Jiraiya's eyes showed hesitation, but then turned firm, and said in a deep voice: "Orochimaru, you and Tsunade go back first, I will stay and take care of the three of them for the time being."

"Ah" Tsunade looked at him in surprise, "Jiraiya, are you kidding?"

"It's not a joke. I have decided that as a kind of atonement, I will go back after they have the ability to be independent."

"But..." Tsunade wanted to say something else, but Jiraiya had already walked in front of Yahiko and Konan.

He put a hand on Yahiko's shoulder and said to himself: "This must also be a kind of fate."

Orochimaru watched this scene quietly, and shook his head after a moment, "Forget it, Tsunade, since Jiraiya has decided, let him go, and the two of us will go back first."

"This" Tsunade looked a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a while, she finally nodded, "Okay."

The two said nothing more and turned around to leave.

However, just when the two of them had just taken a few steps, Nagato, who had been standing at the back and had remained silent from beginning to end, suddenly rushed behind the two of them.

"Tsunade-sama, please take me"

Nagato opened his eyes wide, looked at the backs of Orochimaru and Tsunade, and shouted loudly.

"Bring it back to Konoha
