Naruto: Six Paths of the Senju Family

Nagato followed Yahiko and Konan, touched the scroll hidden in his chest, and slowly walked towards the Land of Rain.

Thinking of what Mr. Naoki said to him before leaving, Nagato couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

"Is it really like what the teacher said, that someone will launch a sneak attack on us halfway?"

"We are almost out of the Land of Fire. Sanshouyu Hanzo is not here at this time. If there is an ambush, they should have come out, right?"

Nagato thought to himself, while quietly looking at the surrounding environment with the corner of his eyes. Except for the sound of the three of them walking, the surroundings were quiet.

"It's so quiet! It doesn't look like anyone is ambush!"

"Is the teacher overthinking it? He just said that to make us more vigilant on the road?"

Nagato frowned, and felt that the teacher might be overly worried.

And no one knows that these eyes of his are the legendary reincarnation eyes. How could someone want to snatch them from him just after seeing him use them a few times? It would be too much to make a fuss about it, right?

While he was thinking about it, Nagato suddenly felt something in his heart.

"wrong!"

"It's so quiet!"

"This is a forest on the border of the Land of Fire. How come there aren't even any insects or birds chirping?"

"There must be someone ambushing nearby!"

Thinking of this, Nagato immediately took two quick steps, came between Yahiko and Konan, and whispered:

"Yahiko, Konan!"

"It's too quiet here. There may be an ambush ahead, so be careful."

Yahiko and Konan reacted immediately after hearing Nagato's reminder. His body tensed subconsciously, and he looked at the surrounding forest warily.

Not far ahead, a group of ninjas wearing black clothes and masks were quietly ambush in the forest on the roadside.

Seeing the three Nagatos suddenly acting like they were facing a formidable enemy, the leading ninja revealed a sneer in his single eye. He made a series of gestures to several companions around him, signaling an attack.

"These brats are quite vigilant. Did they find out they were in an ambush?"

"Humph! But it's too late!"

"Do it!"

Following the one-eyed man's order, dozens of black shadows suddenly emerged from the forest on both sides of the road, surrounding the three of Nagato.

Four figures jumped to the periphery of Nagato and the others first, and stood in four directions. The hand seals that have been practiced countless times are quickly formed, and the hands are pressed to the ground.

"Ninja Technique-Four Purple Flame Formation!"

Purple-red barriers on all sides rose from the ground, forming a huge purple barrier, surrounding the three Nagatos and a group of black-clothed ninjas.

Nagato was startled by the sudden appearance of the barrier. He protected Yahiko and Konan behind him, reached out and took out a few shurikens from his ninja tool bag, and tried to shoot at the barrier.

"Ding!"

"Stab it!"

The shuriken whirled and hit the purple light screen, making a crisp metal collision sound, and then was completely dissolved by the light screen.

Nagato's expression changed, and he suddenly understood that this barrier should not be broken from the inside. His heart sank, and he stared closely at the group of black ninjas surrounding him.

"Who are you? Why are you ambushing us here?"

"Hanzo-sama is nearby. You must think clearly about the consequences of angering the ninja demigods if you attack us!"

The one-eyed man emerged from the crowd, staring greedily at Nagato's Rinnegan, and let out a cold laugh.

"Hmph!"

"Young people don't know how high the sky is. They carry a lot of money but flaunt it. They deserve to end up like this!"

"As for the Sansho Fish Hanzo you mentioned."

The one-eyed man sneered:

"Don't think he'll find out what's going on here!"

"He is currently working with my shadow clone, dreaming of joining forces to dominate the ninja world, right?"

While Nagato sighed inwardly at his teacher's foresight, he stared at the one-eyed man in front of him.

"I don't understand what you mean, what kind of treasure?"

"What do you want from us?"

The man looked into Nagato's eyes greedily, as if looking at a rare treasure.

"your eyes!"

"Give them to me and I'll spare your two companions a life."

"Otherwise...die!"

Konan's expression changed and she looked at Nagato nervously.

Yahiko grabbed Nagato's arm and looked at the man with an angry expression.

"Don't even think about it!"

"These eyes are Nagato's most precious treasure and cannot be given to anyone else!"

"If you want to get these eyes, you have to step over my corpse!"

Nagato felt warm in his heart and patted Yahiko's hand to signal him not to be so nervous.

"Yahiko, it's okay, there won't be any problem!"

"Have you forgotten what the teacher gave me? The teacher said that you can open it at a critical moment, now."

Nagato turned his head and glanced around the ninjas around him. With trust in his teacher on his face, he reached out from his arms and took out the scroll that the rope tree had given him before.

"I think if you want my eyes, you can ask my teacher if he agrees first!"

There was a look of disdain in the man's eyes. He looked at the scroll that Nagato held in his hand and shook his head slightly.

"your teacher?"

"Hmph! Is it that idiot Jiraiya?"

Nagato unfolded the scroll, put his hand on it, and poured his chakra into it.

The summoning circle carved on the scroll began to slowly emit bursts of light. Nagato raised his head and looked at the man, with a smile on his face shrouded in light, and slowly said:

"You must be the Danzo Shimura that the teacher told me about, right?"

"You are wrong about one thing. Jiraiya-sensei did teach us."

"In my opinion, Jiraiya-sensei is not an idiot!"

"He is one of the few noble ninjas among the Konoha ninjas. He is much better than you, a guy who only knows how to hide in the dark and engage in some conspiracies!"

"and"

"Who told you that we only have one teacher, Jiraiya-sama?"

As Nagato spoke, he stood up and took two steps back, allowing the magic circle on the glowing scroll to be activated.

The light from the scroll became more and more dazzling. Danzo, whose identity was revealed by Nagato, slightly narrowed his one eye and looked at the scroll that was different from the ordinary one in surprise.

"what?"

"boom!"

The brightness of the light seemed to reach a peak, and suddenly there was a bang and a puff of white smoke rose from the scroll. Two tall figures appeared in the smoke.

Nagato bowed respectfully to the two figures and called softly:

"teacher!"

Konan and Yahiko looked at the two teachers who had just parted recently with surprised expressions on their faces, and immediately rushed towards them.

"Teacher, I didn't expect that the scroll you prepared was actually summoning you here. It really scared me to death!"

One of the young men walked out of the smoke, reached out and touched the heads of Konan and Yahiko, and nodded to Nagato.

"Well! Don't be afraid, the teacher is here!"

Jiraiya stepped out of the smoke and looked at Danzo with complicated eyes.

"Danzo-sama, I never thought that you and Sarutobi-sensei would actually attack my disciples!"

"I am disappointed!"

Naoki let go of Konan and Yahiko, turned around and walked to Jiraiya and looked at Danzo with a smile on his face.

"Lord Danzo, I finally found a chance!"

"You know? I've been waiting for this day for four years!"
