Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

"Yes, I'm saved..."

Nagato's body went limp and he slumped to the ground.

"You are shameless! You don't keep your word!"

Yukina's opponent, a Sand Ninja who was good at using Wind Style, saw that his companion was about to win, but was suddenly taken away by a flying kunai. He was so upset that he immediately cursed: "Didn't we agree that you would let us go as long as we defeat our opponent!"

He felt extremely angry and at the same time deeply anxious.

If that's the case, then I'm dead!

But Yukina didn't care about his anxiety and psychological shock. Her Sharingan moved slightly and her hands quickly formed seals.

"Wind Release: Gale Wind Palm!"

She clapped her hands, and the wind was compressed in her hands, becoming a violent gale that instantly hit the extremely angry Sand Ninja!

"Ah! You're using my ninjutsu against me!"

The Sand Ninja became even angrier. His tactical vest was pierced and large amounts of blood gushed out!

"Wind Release: Wind Cut Technique!"

He decided to fight to the death, to turn the wind into a sharp blade, and to take away the Konoha ninja in front of him even if he died!

Judging from the current battle situation, my opponent should be the one with the strongest fighting ability among them. Even in the Hidden Sand Village, she can be considered a genius. If I kill her...

"Suffer to death!"

He ignored Yukina's attack, determined to exchange his life for hers, and ruthlessly released the wind that had turned into a sharp blade at all costs!

puff!

Blood gushed out, his chest was pierced!

however--

"How can it be?"

This Sand Ninja was spitting blood from his mouth. He stared blankly at Yuina in front of him, and slowly turned into a pile of quicksand.

Sand clone?!

when……

"In front of these eyes, your struggle is doomed to be in vain."

A cold voice came from behind, and Yukina picked up the kunai and stabbed him again, sending him to death completely.

At this point, the battle is over.

Everyone won except Nagato!

"..."

Nagato stood there in despair, with his head hung low. He didn't even dare to look at Orochimaru's expression. It was obvious that he had been practicing ninjutsu and cultivating chakra seriously these days.

However...when the real battle comes, nothing can be used.

I guess Orochimaru must be very disappointed with himself...

It turns out that it is better for me to carry rice honestly.

Bah, bah, bah.

Nagato's tears fell.

"What are you doing, Nagato?"

Yahiko and Konan came over to comfort him: "You are already very good. Compared with us, you lack a lot of combat experience. You will definitely be much better next time!"

"Wow wow wow...I am a waste..."

Nagato burst into tears.

But Yukina didn't come over. Her eyes were looking at two figures flying towards her not far away.

Others might not be able to see the kunai just now, but the wind and lightning chakra contained in it can only be done by one person!

Swish!Swish!

Tsunade and Ito Toru appeared next to Orochimaru.

"Ito, you've become stronger again?"

Yukina also jumped up the next second, and looked at Ito Toru with some surprise: "Aren't you practicing medical ninjutsu? How come your fighting power has increased again?"

"Don't underestimate medical ninjutsu!"

Ito Tetsu narrowed his eyes: "As a qualified medical ninja, isn't it normal to have certain means of protecting yourself?"

"Don't make a fuss."

"..."

Yuina's face looked a little strange. If it weren't for Sensei Orochimaru and Lady Tsunade beside her, she really wanted to fight with Toru Ito directly!

"Orochimaru, what's going on here?"

Tsunade saw the two captured Sand Ninjas and frowned as she asked, "Isn't the war over? Why are there still Sand Ninjas here?"

"It seems that the war in Konoha is not over yet. We will have to go back soon." Orochimaru sighed and looked at the three people below: "This is all I can teach them."

If there were not enough time and place, Orochimaru would actually like to teach the three of them something more.

But the information he just learned from the Sand Ninja made him realize that he had to return to Konoha. The shadow of war was looming between the Sand Ninja and Konoha. Although the war in the Rain Country was over, the struggle between the two countries had not stopped.

"Orochimaru, you..."

Tsunade wanted to say something, but she hesitated. Orochimaru saw what she was thinking, so he said to the side:

"Ito, Yuina, take them back first."

"Tsunade and I have something to talk about."

"Row."

Seeing this, Toru Ito roughly understood that it was some confidential event within Konoha Village, and it was not convenient for him and the two younger generations, Yuina, to listen to it. So he nodded and went downstairs, taking Yahiko and the other two back.

The five of them quickly returned to the porridge shop.

Nagato was still feeling very depressed, but he was a child who didn't like to trouble others, so he tried hard to act like he was fine.

The few of them were indeed a little tired because of the battle, so after comforting him a few words, they went back to the house, ready to have a good rest before getting up to eat.

The atmosphere became quiet, and Nagato squatted by the door alone, as if there was a dark cloud hanging over his head.

He actually had no confidence and was unwilling to fight.

Today's battle made him even less confident.

"Hey, what's wrong with this?"

Suddenly he heard a voice coming from the front, and looking up, he saw Jiraiya squatting in front of him.

"You look listless. Did you not perform well today? Or was it because of what Orochimaru said?"

"Don't take it too seriously. After all, that guy is just that kind of person. He looks cold on the surface, but he's actually a very kind person at heart."

"I……"

Nagato was about to speak when tears started to flow. He didn't want to cry, but when he thought about his performance today, he felt ashamed and sad.

"Alas, you can cry as a child, but you can't do this when you grow up and become a man. Here."

Jiraiya searched his pockets and finally took out a stack of crumpled papers, which looked like they were taken away from a restaurant. He said with an awkward expression, "Just use it for now."

"Thank you...Jiraiya-sama."

Nagato pushed his hair aside and wiped his eyes, and it took him a while to calm down.

Jiraiya in front of him was stunned as if he was struck by lightning.

Normally, Nagato had messy hair that covered his eyes, making him look like a little wretched boy. However, when he was wiping his tears, Jiraiya was finally able to see his eyes clearly!

Aren't those circles of lines that spread out like ripples the legendary Samsara Eye? !

At this moment, Jiraiya suddenly recalled what the Great Toad Sage had once said to him.

"There will be a ninja who will change the world."

"You will travel around the world writing books..."

Could it be that... this is the moment when the gears of fate start turning!

"you……"

Jiraiya took a deep breath. After all, he was no longer a rookie ninja and knew what he should do now.

His expression became extremely serious.

First of all, we have to capture Nagato from Orochimaru!

Da da.

At this moment, Jiraiya suddenly heard footsteps outside the door.

Oh no! Orochimaru and the others are back!

Jiraiya didn't care about much and immediately tucked Nagato's long bangs back together and used his hands as a comb to make his hair fluffy. After making sure that nothing could be seen, he put his big hands on the somewhat puzzled Nagato's shoulders, looking like an intimate elder brother who was telling his inner thoughts to a confused younger brother.

squeak-

The door opened, and Orochimaru and Tsunade walked in together. They were both stunned when they saw Jiraiya and Nagato squatting there together.

"You're doing those boring things again."

Orochimaru shook his head slightly.
