Naruto: Across Worlds

"It's amazing. With this person in Konoha, we will be free from worries for decades."

Hearing the words of the Third Mizukage, Jiudeng Jiuyue on the side said doubtfully: "Sandaime-sama, isn't he just a young man with barely enough strength? How can he be worthy of your evaluation?"

Hearing this, the Third Mizukage chuckled and said, "Kyutsuki, do you think we can keep them?"

After thinking for a while, Kiden Jiuyue said: "Among them, only Jiraiya's strength has reached the half-step shadow level, and the other two are just ordinary jounin. It is not difficult to take them down. It's just that my subordinates are a little confused. You Why did you let them go so easily just now?"

The Third Mizukage shook his head slightly, looked at the direction where Jiraiya and others were leaving, and slowly said: "No, we can't let them go. Judging from Jiraiya's past deeds, this person has outstanding resourcefulness. Just now There was a subtle movement between them. After the two people approached him, the worry in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a kind of confidence, the confidence of being able to escape."

The Third Mizukage was so sure that Kiden Hisuki fell silent for a moment. He knew that the Third Mizukage in front of him was not the kind of person to talk nonsense.

On the other hand, Jiraiya and the other three have also arrived at the eastern shore of the Land of Fire. Orochimaru and Tsunade have obviously not yet reacted to the situation.

"Recovered"

Jiraiya shouted in relief.

At this time, Orochimaru and Tsunade turned their heads and looked at Jiraiya, wanting to know why the other party let them go so easily.

Seeing this, Jiraiya nodded and instantly understood what they meant, so he said: "The third generation Mizukage is very powerful and has very strong insight. He saw the movements of my hands and the changes in the expression in my eyes. Only then did he Get out of the way"

As he spoke, Jiraiya opened his palm, and two particularly obvious runes appeared on it.

"This is the seal technique of the Flying Thunder God"

Orochimaru and Tsunade asked at the same time.

"Yes, I was just delaying time before. It was also my first time to use these two runes, so I had to hold him back. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the time to talk nonsense with him. I believe you have also sensed it. It depends on the opponent’s chakra strength.”

After Jiraiya finished speaking, the two of them suddenly realized. No wonder Jiraiya just now was a little different from usual. He started talking to the other party like the Third Mizukage as soon as they met.

But as soon as he got there, he immediately rejected the other party outright.

After seeing that both of them understood, Jiraiya took the lead and walked forward.

However, the thoughts in his heart were a bit complicated. He thought that he was strong enough to be able to fight the current Sarutobi, but today he discovered that he was still very weak.

Just being a third generation Mizukage is enough for him to drink a pot. If there is a life and death fight, there is no chance that he will die.

"It's still too weak," Jiraiya raised his head and looked at the sky, murmuring to himself.

Time passes, Konoha Hidden Village, Hokage Building.

After Jiraiya finished speaking his judgment, Sarutobi fell silent for a moment.

After a long time, Sarutobi said: "Jiraiya, according to what you said, although the situation over there is a bit urgent, it is not to the point where it cannot be alleviated."

"Yes, Teacher Sarutobi, in my opinion, there will be no worries for at least three years. Moreover, the situation has not reached the most dangerous period yet. Once we successfully introduce the Uzumaki tribe, they may not completely surrender to Konoha. Next

Where is Uchiha?" Jiraiya answered honestly.

Hearing this, Sarutobi thought again, but it was obvious that he already had some plans.

On the side, Tsunade and Orochimaru were looking at Jiraiya and Sarutobi in confusion. They had not yet been exposed to the real situation of going to the Country of Whirlpool, so they were a little confused.

Looking at the two people's darting little eyes, Sarutobi chuckled: "Okay, in that case, I already have a solution in mind. It's all thanks to you this time. Jiraiya, you three go down and rest first. It's an emergency. But I don’t have much time left for you.”

Hearing this, Tsunade curled her lips, turned and left, while Orochimaru nodded, and then prepared to go out indifferently.

Only Jiraiya hesitated, as if he had something to say.

Seeing this, Sarutobi asked: "Jiraiya, you have something to say."

"I'm too weak, Mr. Sarutobi. I hope to apply for a year's rest to improve myself. I have been performing tasks in the past few years, so more ideas have not been implemented. Please give me a break, Mr. Sarutobi." Fake"

Hearing Jiraiya's somewhat unconfident words, Sarutobi glanced at him doubtfully, and then slowly said: "Jiraiya, but did I meet someone on the way?"

Jiraiya nodded, and just as he was about to speak, Tsunade said first: "We met the Third Mizukage on the way back."

After some explanations from Tsunade, Sarutobi finally understood why Jiraiya had such thoughts.

So, he said earnestly: "Jiraiya, at your age, teacher is not as strong as you. To be honest, even the teacher is surprised by the progress you have made over the years.

Especially Jiraiya, you are already halfway to Kage level at such a young age, you are a well-deserved genius. From now on, Konoha will definitely prosper with the three of you here.

So, you don’t have to be harsh on yourself, just go and have a good rest.”

However, unexpectedly, Jiraiya did not agree to Sarutobi this time. Instead, he shook his head slightly and said: "Sarutobi-sensei, this time I met the Third Mizukage and found that if I fight to the death with him, I will definitely die in the end." It's me.

You also know that as the captain of the ANBU, the missions I will perform in the future must be the most dangerous. Once I do not have enough strength to deal with the enemy, I am afraid it will cause huge losses to Konoha.

Sarutobi-sensei, war will come again, and I think you don’t want people with white hair to send people with black hair in the future.”

Sarutobi frowned, looked at Jiraiya with some displeasure and said, "This idea of ​​yours is very dangerous. The war is over, Jiraiya."

Seeing Sarutobi's angry look, Tsunade and Orochimaru on the side pulled him.

However, he did not make any move. Instead, he looked at Sarutobi and said, "Teacher, is the war really over? Haha, I'm afraid it won't be as you want."

"What do you mean?" Sarutobi said sternly.

It seemed that if Jiraiya didn't give him an explanation, he wouldn't be able to let it go.

At this time, Jiraiya looked at him seriously and said bluntly: "Teacher Sarutobi, not every village or every country thinks like you do. The war will end, but not now, with everything in front of you." It’s just the calm before the storm.”

After saying that, Jiraiya turned and left, disappearing from everyone's sight after a while.

Looking at the direction he left, Sarutobi murmured to himself: "Don't even people like you believe that the war is over?"
