Chapter 166 167. Orphans of war

"—?"

Ok?

?

As soon as the beep fell and I saw the task list in front of me,

Chen Xiaoxi suddenly opened his eyes subconsciously.

and many more,

The so-called special plot mission,

Are you asking me to plot against Brother Tuzi?

?

Directly reported his true identity to Nagato and Konan...

This……

so cruel...

While sighing,

Chen Xiaoxi looked aside and suddenly opened his mouth and smiled.

.

Even though it’s a bit hard to give up...

However, the upgrade of the mall, the upgrade of the power of the void, the upgrade of the Quincy bloodline...

If we don’t give this unprecedented and significant reward a try, wouldn’t we be living up to the good intentions of the dog system?

Alas, there is no way,

Then...just like before, let's be the light of the righteous path again.

The smile in Chen Xiaoxi's eyes lit up slightly.

but,

That being said.

If you want to complete this task, you can't just talk about it.

after all,

From the conversation just now,

Chen Xiaoxi was already keenly aware of this.

That is,

At present, Nagato and Konan still seem to have great trust in the identity of the masked man.

Because, when Chen Xiaoxi tentatively raised his doubts about Uchiha Madara's identity,

Their expressions remained almost unchanged.

.

This incidates that,

At least now, they don't have much doubt about "Madara".

Therefore, if Chen Xiaoxi just ran there,

If he told Pain and Konan that the masked man's true identity was Obito Uchiha, they would probably be regarded as a joke.

So, to complete this task,

We must find a way to completely confirm his identity.

"..."

Aware of this,

Chen Xiaoxi thought of a suitable plan almost instantly.

Then,

The smile on his face grew stronger.

Next, you just need to wait for the right time.

Brother Tuzi’s behind-the-scenes career...

It's about to end.

……

……

Meanwhile on the other side.

Screen transfer.

From the dark and humid Kingdom of Rain, I came to the Kingdom of Fire where the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant in the distance.

Chen Xiaoxi and other people in the Akatsuki organization over there can't naturally think of what happened here in Konoha in the past few days.

But actually,

In the past few days, probably since the Uchiha genocide,

One of the most turbulent times in Konoha.

everything,

Of course, it's all because of the major events that happened in the Chunin Exams not long ago.

The third generation Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen died.

The last bloodline of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Sasuke, was kidnapped.

The Hokage Rock exploded.

And this time,

Also because the pursuit of Orochimaru was fruitless, it declared a failure.

Kakashi Ban and Asima Ban reluctantly returned to Konoha, and Sunagakure's ninja troops had also set off to return to the Land of Wind.

everything,

It seems that everything is starting to recover.

Many people,

today,

Choosing to pay homage to Hiruzen Sarutobi who had been buried.

But just today.

A different ninja also came to the place of worship.

He was tall, wearing a red coat with brown clothes underneath, wooden clogs on his feet, and armor-like equipment on his hands.

Her wild white hair reaches to her waist, and there are red marks under her eyes.

He did not wear the forehead protector that was the symbol of Konoha ninja, but had a very eye-catching word "oil" written on his forehead.

He is one of the legendary Sannin, a disciple of Hiruzen Sarutobi——

Come also.

As an optimistic ninja with a wild nature and a love for freedom,

This time,

When I saw the tombstone of Hiruzen Sarutobi in front of me,

even he

I can no longer show the smile I used to have.

"..."

Silent silence pervades everything around.

Of course, there were many people around who noticed Jiraiya's arrival.

Such as Kakashi and Kai, etc.

but,

At this heavy moment, no one chose to disturb him.

Jiraiya's face was extremely heavy.

Do not know why,

He knelt down alone in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen's grave for a long time.

until,

The sky is dark and the yellow sun is about to set.

There weren't many people around the mausoleum anymore.

And Jiraiya,

Then he slowly stood up and decided to leave.

but,

Just when he turned around,

Suddenly,

Only then did he realize that there was a serious-looking middle-aged man standing behind him.

now,

The moment he saw him, Jiraiya couldn't help but feel slightly surprised.

This person turned out to be...

Konoha’s genius strategist——

Nara Shikahisa?

Just as he was thinking, he heard Shikaku in front of him speak.

His eyes were solemn and he said solemnly:

"Mr. Jiraiya,"

"Do you have time to talk about... this chuunin exam?"

"In this war, there is a power that everyone ignores... I want you to know."

"……Um?"

Jiraiya was stunned for a moment.

"You... what did you say?"

Nara Shikaku raised his eyes slightly and spoke slowly:

"Yes."

"I suspect that in addition to Otogakure and Sunagakure, there are other forces involved in this incident..."

"The Country of Rain, Hidden Rain Village."

"—?"

wind blows.

.

The tree moves.

Dusk has come, and the sky will be dark.

In front of Sarutobi Hiruzen's mausoleum, the two ninjas stood quietly.

look at each other.

And just a moment later,

When Nara Shikaku's words fell,

Jiraiya was stunned for a moment.

He stared at Nara Shikaku with extremely surprised eyes and said:

"You just said."

"This Chunin Rebellion also involves Amegakure.?"

".That's right."

Nara Shikaku nodded solemnly.

"This is an inference I made based on various evidence and doubts."

"."

Jiraiya froze slightly and was speechless.

First of all,

He had no idea at all,

Nara Shikaku, Sarutobi-sensei's most capable subordinate in the past, actually came to find him at this time.

And secondly, what he didn’t expect was that,

In his mouth, he actually mentioned the small country that was once a war-torn ninja village——

Rain hidden!

this place,

It's impossible for Jiraiya not to be familiar with it.

even,

This place directly carries his memories for a long time.

During the Second Ninja War,

It was here that he fought side by side with Tsunade and Orochimaru against the legendary ninja known as the "demigod" and the leader of the Hidden Rain Village, Sansho Hanzo.

And because of this, the three of them got the title that shocked the ninja world——

Konoha Sannin.

After the war ended,

Jiraiya meets three more orphans from the war in Amegakure.

It's three young children.

Nagato,

Yahiko,

Xiaonan.

Maybe it was to make up for the damage caused to them by the war, or maybe it was out of inner sympathy for these children.

Jiraiya decided to keep them by his side, teach them ninjutsu personally, and teach them to become stronger.

This,

That was the beginning of those three children.

Soon after,

Jiraiya discovered that this child named Nagato was extremely talented and highly intelligent.

He also has a pair of "special" eyes.

then,

Jiraiya couldn't help but think that he was the "son of prophecy" mentioned by Toad Sen. He was an existence that could bring salvation and light to the ninja world.

However, the good times did not last long.

after that,

Jiraiya left them for some reason.

Soon after that,

When I heard the news about them, they were already dead in the war.

Jiraiya regretted this.

and,

Together with Yuyin Village, he sealed it into his past memory.
