Naruto: I take the system through time

Chapter 85 The mystery of the earthy smell

"Uncle Jiraiya, what a coincidence."

"Yukari, come out with me for a moment. I have something to tell you."

Yukari followed Jiraiya's tall body curiously, walking through the bustling crowd.

People moaned in pain from the corridor. Some people were so painful that they couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams. They suddenly moved forward and grabbed the corner of Yukari's clothes, begging her with tears in their eyes not to eat him.

Yukari was surrounded by them and could not move. He was also afraid of hurting them if he struggled too much. He felt embarrassed for a moment, so he stood on tiptoes and looked at Jiraiya with his head raised.

"Uncle Jiraiya, help me."

Hearing Yukari's plea, Jiraiya's white hair instantly grew like vines and spread through the crowd. Yukari wrapped it from head to toe and quickly pulled it out.

"Thank you... thank you."

Yukari hurriedly spat out the broken hair that had gotten into her mouth, and stretched out her arm to wipe away the saliva stained around her mouth.

Suddenly, Yukari faintly smelled a faint and imperceptible earthy smell from the sleeves that had been pulled by someone.

Not sure if he smelled it wrong, Yukari moved closer to each injured person who was attacked by the living dead, carefully identifying the unpleasant smell.

"That's right, no matter men, women, old or young, they all have a faint earthy smell."

"what happened?"

Jiraiya noticed that Yukari did not follow, but returned to the crowd. There was a trace of doubt in his eyes, and he crossed his arms and walked over.

"Uncle Jiraiya, it hasn't rained in Konoha recently, right?"

"Well, the sun has been pretty hot these days."

Listening to Yukari's unreasonable questions, Jiraiya's eyelids sank, leaving only half of his pupil exposed.

"I found that they all had an earthy smell. This is not the smell of earth after rain, nor is it the rotten smell of the living dead."

Jiraiya's arms suddenly stiffened and his expression became serious.

Earthy smell?He knew that there was a person who always had an earthy smell in places, and that was Orochimaru.

Orochimaru is good at using snakes, and snakes always have this special smell. Now that people who have been attacked by the living dead are stained with an earthy smell, it is self-evident what it means.

Seeing Jiraiya deep in thought, Yukari gathered chakra on his feet, walked vertically from the wall to him, and shouted softly, "Uncle Jiraiya, don't you have something to tell me?"

Jiraiya came back to his senses, a smile appeared on his face, he slapped Yukari's shoulder hard, and said with great energy, "Let's talk outside the room."

The two of them walked to a relatively quiet garden. Jiraiya cast a barrier to completely isolate the sound from the outside world. He turned around and walked to a huge stone. He reached out to brush away the accumulated dust on the landscape stone and sat down casually.

Yukari didn't know what Jiraiya meant, but knew that he would not harm her, so he leaned against the tree trunk, staring directly into Jiraiya's eyes, waiting for him to speak.

"You look lazy, you really don't have any sense of crisis."

"I believe Uncle Jiraiya is a good man."

Yukari smiled and looked at Jiraiya with crooked eyebrows.

“Okay, let’s not beat around the bush.

If I ask you something, you have to answer truthfully and don't be tricky. "

"Oh, you know, I'm very honest."

Jiraiya pretended to be serious, glared at Yukari, coughed twice and said sternly, "Where do you get your immortal power?"

Immortal power?What immortal power?

Yukari was immediately asked. The only person she had ever seen who could use celestial magic was Jiraiya, but he had never taught her celestial magic. How could she have celestial power in her body?

Could it be the system? This is my last trump card. It must not be leaked. Being sent to the laboratory as a monster is not a big deal, but being jealous and killed is the end of it.

How to deal with it?

Yukari put her hand behind her back and rubbed her palm unconsciously. Suddenly, something warm and hard touched the back of her hand. This was - a protective ring!

Yes, the protective ring, this thing is given by the system, and it should also contain the immortal power that Jiraiya said.

Yukari's eyes sparkled, and he stretched out his hand from behind, showing Jiraiya the ring on his hand.

"Is this it? Does it have immortal power?"

The protective ring suddenly turned from warm and moist to dry and hot, with a faint white light lingering all over the body.

"Yes, it is continuously overflowing with immortal power.

Take the ring off and let me take a closer look. "

"This..." Yukari was a little embarrassed and said hesitantly, "It's stained with my blood and I can't take it off."

Jiraiya didn't believe it, so he walked up to Yukari in two steps and said in a deep voice, "Put your hand over here, let me try."

Yukari obediently stretched out her hand and let Jiraiya play with it.

Ten minutes later, Jiraiya was sweating profusely and tried eighteen moves with great effort. Not only was he unable to remove the protective ring from Yukari's hand, but he was also vomited by the protective ring. Mouth of black blood.

"Huh..." Jiraiya held his chest and let out a long breath, waved his hands and said, "I won't take it anymore. Please tell me where the ring came from."

These simple words asked Yukari again, where did the ring come from?Can you say that it was given by the system?

"An old man gave it to me. I helped him cross the street and he forced me to give it two rings."

After saying that, Yukari didn't dare to look at Jiraiya. After all, this reason even seemed bad to her.

Jiraiya remembered that when he was a child, he often helped his grandparents to cross the road. Even though the elderly people had just crossed the road, he accidentally helped them back to the other side of the road.

It seems that good deeds will be rewarded if you do the right thing. Like Yukari, he was given two rings by his grandfather, while he himself received several beatings back then.

Wait, two rings?In addition to the one in her hand, there is another one!

"Take out the other ring."

"Well...I gave it away."

When Jiraiya heard this, he was so angry that he felt dizzy.

"Who did you give it to? He didn't lose any blood, did he?"

"Give it to Neji. I wonder if his blood dripped onto the ring."

Yukari hummed like a mosquito, lowered her eyes and answered feebly.

"Then tell me about the appearance of the grandfather who gave you the ring."

Yukari's bright eyes moved back and forth in her sockets, and the figure of a great man gradually appeared in her mind.

"He is tall, with a crest on his forehead, and his eyebrows hang down like willow branches at the top of his eyebrows. He has kind eyes and kind eyebrows..."

Yukari kept describing this old grandfather, but Jiraiya was confused, as if he had never remembered such a person.

"The person you are talking about does not look like a person from the Fire Country. Instead, he looks like a respected ancestor from the Porcelain Country that I once traveled to."

"Is this sage's surname Kong?"

"Correct."

Yukari had a mysterious smile on his face. He never expected that anyone in this world would know about China's Holy Saint.

"Grandpa asked me to call him Grandpa Kong. Maybe he is the person you are looking for, Uncle Jiraiya."

Jiraiya rubbed his chin and made some calculations in his mind.
