Konoha: Prepare to defect, the system is coming.

Chapter 725: Senju Hashirama: Haven’t you heard my story?

boom!
The moment Jiraiya was flung away by the repulsive force, he quickly bit his finger and pressed it into the air.

He looked up at Nagato in front of him, and a strange pattern composed of black tadpole characters appeared under his palm.

"Spiritual Summoning: Roof Collapse Technique!!"

As a low voice sounded, huge white smoke suddenly appeared between heaven and earth, and then a toad quickly broke through the smoke and sat on the six ninja dogs below.

"I'm useless, so do I have to take action now?" Gamaken looked around, pulled out the thorny harpoon from his back, and thrust it hard into the backs of the six ninja dogs, breaking their spines instantly.

boom!
The huge air wave instantly spread out in all directions, causing everyone to squint their eyes.

at the same time.

In the sky, a giant bird with black sticks stuck in its head let out a strange cry, then it turned around and swooped down directly towards Toad Jian.

"Senjutsu: White Strategy!" Ichijima Kirihime opened her mouth and spit out a red dragon phantom holding a black cylinder into the sky, which crashed straight into the big bird, emitting a dazzling light.

This sudden change made Toad Jian stunned for a moment.

After discovering that the big bird had been smashed into pieces, it suddenly looked down at the little loli floating in the air, with a human-like look of doubt on its face, "Ichijima Kirihime?"

Ichijima Kishima clapped her hands and said coldly, "Gamaken, that's my enemy, go find your opponent yourself!!"

After saying that, she didn't even look at the red-skinned toad and continued looking for someone who could be her opponent.

She was originally having a good time playing with the strange bird, but then the stinky toad came over and interfered, instantly attracting the strange bird's attention.

Toad Jian: “.”

It looked at Ichijima Kishima's back, then pulled out the pot lid tied to its back and smashed it at the six ninja dogs that were not yet dead. "Although I am useless and not as strong as Ichijima Kishima, I will try my best."

Hearing the deep voice behind her, Ichijima Kirihime's face instantly darkened.

Except for the initial fight against the Ten Thousand Snakes, when she was really serious, she was just slacking off the rest of the time.

after all
You will definitely not be able to defeat the big boss behind the scenes.

You can defeat ordinary enemies, but there is always another one after defeating one.
"Whether this war is won or not, it will have no impact on Ryuchi Cave!" Ichijima Kirihime looked around and said to herself, "Even if the coalition of the five major countries fails, the spiritual contract can be released."

boom! !

A huge shock wave suddenly hit, blowing Ichijima Kushihime's hair back.

I saw Toad Guang grabbing the body of the giant centipede with one hand and wielding a big knife with the other hand, chopping the centipede into two pieces cleanly and neatly.

Although Toad Jian said the most cowardly words, he fought the most fiercely with his hands. His thorny harpoon was aimed at the spine of the enemy, which could cause paralysis at the least and kill him on the spot at the worst.

Seeing this scene, Ichijima Kushiki's face turned even darker.

Without comparison, there is no gap.
She was just slacking off just now, but now two stupid toads come and try their best to fight her.

If someone who is not aware of the situation saw this, they would think that the Fourth Ninja World War was not about Akatsuki attacking the five major ninja villages, but about Akatsuki attacking Mount Myoboku.

Ichijima Kushihime spat on the ground, then put her hands on her hips and cursed.

"You really are a tadpole with a frog tattoo on his body. Are you pretending to be me?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she glanced at the bird that was healing someone, and her figure instantly disappeared in the sky and appeared in front of a giant crab.

At this moment, the surrounding natural energy quickly gathered on Ichijima Kushiro's fist.

She aimed at the belly of the crab in front of her and punched it hard, sending the big crab flying hundreds of meters away.

"Gulu~"

Seeing this scene, Jiraiya suddenly swallowed his saliva, and the idea of ​​getting to know the other person in his mind instantly disappeared. He said to himself, "She looks exactly like Tsunade."

As for this kind of violent girl, it is enough to know Tsunade.

"Tsunade ah"

Thinking of Tsunade's complicated expression before she set off, Jiraiya couldn't help but look up at Nagato.

No matter just now or now, he never saw a trace of human emotion on Nagato's face, only indifference. Even when facing his former master, he was so indifferent.

Jiraiya had encountered this situation before, with some ninjas who had given up their emotions.
"Why did Yahiko become like this? And Nagato...you." Jiraiya pointed at Tendo Pain who looked very similar to Yahiko, then looked at Nagato who was unusually thin, and asked.

"He died a long time ago!"

Nagato controlled Tendo Pain and said through Yahiko, "He died in the peace that he once longed for. I experienced war, and the pain made me grow. Knowing all the pain, I have already surpassed mortals and become a god-like existence."

After hearing these crazy words, Jiraiya couldn't help but remain silent.

He didn't understand what had happened to make the disciples who were once peace-minded become so paranoid now.

Jiraiya raised his head, his expression gradually becoming serious, "You collect the tailed beasts and start the Fourth Ninja World War."

Before he could finish, Nagato interrupted.

"The reason why we collect tailed beasts is to create forbidden weapons that can destroy the entire ninja world, so as to shock people and create fear of war, so that the endless wars can be completely stopped!"

As soon as the words fell, the entire battlefield fell into silence.

Countless ninjas opened their eyes wide and looked at the leader of Akatsuki with shock in their eyes.

This was the first time since the Fourth Ninja World War that the leader of Akatsuki spoke his true thoughts in front of everyone.

A ninja raised his head suddenly, with a bit of disbelief in his voice, "To achieve peace by destroying the five major ninja villages, to achieve peace by ending war with war. What a ridiculous idea."

"After the Five Kage Tournament, didn't we already know the purpose of Akatsuki?" Another ninja raised his hand to block the enemy's attack and said coldly.

"No matter what Akatsuki's purpose is, among those they want to destroy, our five great ninja villages have always been there!!"

An old man staggered to his feet and said coldly, "This is no longer a war to protect a single Jinchūriki, but a war to protect each and every one of us!!
If we lose the war, not only will we lose the village, but we will all die."

"Oh!!"

Countless ninjas gritted their teeth, and their fighting spirit, which had been gradually fading, ignited again.

Nagato seemed not to have noticed this scene. His eyes were always fixed on Jiraiya, as if he was expecting to hear approval of this plan from his former teacher.

"extreme!!"

Jiraiya seemed to know what Nagato was thinking. He clapped his hands together and looked up. "How could I possibly agree with such a radical idea!!"

"Ninjutsu: The Technique of Wild Hair!"

The long white hair instantly stretched out and controlled the defenseless Nagato.

However, there was no panic in Nagato's eyes. He didn't even look at the long-haired man, but stared at Jiraiya's eyes, "No matter whether the idea is extreme or not, as long as it can bring peace."

Jiraiya's face darkened when he heard this. "You ignorant brat, do you really think that just because you have a forbidden weapon that threatens everyone, you can stop the war completely?"

He looked at Nagato's indifferent expression, his cheeks twitching with anger. "Possessing that kind of forbidden weapon does not mean that war can be completely avoided. On the contrary, the existence of forbidden weapons may lead to a bigger war. You underestimated the "interests"!!" "What really determines the outbreak of war is the competition for interests between countries, not forbidden weapons!!"

Jiraiya stomped his right foot hard on the ground, and the chakra in his body instantly flowed into his long white hair, hardening it into something comparable to steel.

"Ninjutsu: Needle Jizo!"

The long hair wrapped around Nagato suddenly exploded like a porcupine and passed through Nagato's body.

boom!
A piece of wood stake appeared at Nagato's original position, but Nagato appeared intact in the sky at this time, looking down at Jiraiya below, and said.

"All countries are fighting. How can we end these battles in the shortest possible time, Master Jiraiya?"

These words instantly silenced Jiraiya.

He has no idea.
Can't say no.

The only way is to believe in the wisdom of "future generations".

After all, the Great Toad Sage’s prophecy said that the “Child of Prophecy” could bring changes to the ninja world.

Jiraiya had tried hard before, but in the end, he found that apart from being sweaty and losing a few pounds, there was no change at all.

Seeing the teacher's silence, Nagato roughly guessed what he was thinking.

He closed his eyes and said slowly, "Teacher Jiraiya, if you provide forbidden weapons to various countries, the countries that have them will definitely use this power, and hundreds of millions of people will die instantly.
Then people will be afraid of war."

Allied Ninja: ???

They scratched their ears, as if they had not heard clearly, and looked at Uzumaki Nagato in confusion.

Is this guy illiterate? ?

This is what Konoha's first Hokage did! !
However, the first Hokage distributed the tailed beasts, and due to the limited quantity, they were only distributed to the five major countries and Takigakure.

This can be seen from the three Ninja World Wars.
Such an approach will not bring peace at all, but will only intensify the Ninja War.

at this time.

Jiraiya looked at the sky with some doubt about life.

He tried hard to recall the details of his interactions with Nagato and the others, and asked with some hesitation, "Nagato, didn't I tell you the story of the first Hokage?"

Nagato: “.”

Noticing that the people around him were looking at this place with strange eyes, Nagato's calm heart suddenly became a little turbulent.

"Of course I know the story of Senju Hashirama!"

He glanced at the ninjas below, his eyes finally fell on Jiraiya, and continued, "I believe I can do better than Senju Hashirama, and every country has that kind of forbidden weapon."

Jiraiya looked at Uzumaki Nagato as if he was an idiot and said unhappily.

"Then the ninja world will be in chaos!"

Seeing this, Nagato knew that Jiraiya-sensei would never agree to this plan. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Teacher Jiraiya, thank you for teaching us how to survive. You could have chosen not to do that."

"And you are still the same as when we first parted, just an insignificant existence that will never grow. You, as you are, have no influence on the plan."

He paused, and calm chakra began to flow slowly, "If you leave now, I won't kill you."

"Hahaha~"

Suddenly, Jiraiya's laughter was heard in the noisy battlefield.

He stomped his feet on the ground and leaped into the air. "I was treated as a brat by a brat. Nagato, I am one of Konoha's three ninjas. You should understand the meaning of this, right?"

“Come to think of it, I have long since escaped the category of human. Although I am not a god, I am the toad sage who sheds tears of blood due to anger—Lord Jiraiya!!”

Nagato: “.”

Xiaonan: “.”

Asuka: "."

Mei Terumi: “.”

Everyone's cheeks twitched violently and they looked at Jiraiya speechlessly.

If these words came from teenagers, they might think it was cool.

If these words came from a twenty-year-old young person, they might feel that the other person might not be fully mature yet.

If these words came from Jiraiya who was in his thirties
"Teacher Jiraiya, you really haven't grown at all!" Thinking of the scene many years ago, Nagato looked at Jiraiya with cold eyes, "Since you don't want to leave, then stay this time!"

As he spoke, Nagato raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and the three Pain puppets that were originally surrounding him instantly turned into smoke and disappeared into the air.

This sudden change left everyone confused.

Only birds
He looked at this scene, his expression suddenly darkened, "I knew that Nagato, who could move freely, would not need those three puppets at all. To some extent, those three puppets were even a burden to him.

Uzumaki Nagato himself is an enhanced version of Pain's Six Paths."

Asuka now suspected that the reason why Nagato summoned the puppet was probably to announce to the ninja alliance: Yahiko is the real leader of the Akatsuki organization! !

Apart from this possibility, he really couldn't think of the meaning of Nagato summoning Tendo Pain.

"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!" Jiraiya clapped his hands together and spit out a fire dragon into the sky.

Although he didn't know why Nagato wanted to take the puppet back, Jiraiya knew that facing this disciple who possessed the Samsara Eye, he needed to go all out and put everything on the line.
"Ninjutsu is useless to me!" Nagato said.

As soon as he finished speaking, a layer of shield formed on the surface of his body, and the moment the fire dragon hit him, the scorching flames were absorbed by the shield.

Seeing this, Jiraiya's heart sank, but he still said in a relaxed tone, "This information is very useful. I wonder if Tsunade will be fascinated by my performance in the war when I return."

He paused, his eyes quickly swept over Uchiha Asuka, Gamahiro and others, his lips moved up and down, and he spoke in a deep voice.

"Please buy me some time, please!!"

After saying that, Jiraiya rolled up his sleeves, bit his finger, made a mark under his eye, and then clapped his two palms together at the same time, making a crisp sound.

Seeing this scene, cold sweat instantly broke out on the foreheads of Toad Jian and Toad Guang.

As Jiraiya's summoning beasts, they have never seen Jiraiya use this trick when facing an enemy and only release a few ninjutsu.

"No way the enemy is that powerful?" Toad Guang said in shock.

"What kind of move is this?" Mei Terumi asked confusedly.

"Sage Technique!!" Seeing the mark on Jiraiya's face gradually complete, Asuka slowly stood up and said solemnly, "He is going to summon the two sages from Mount Myoboku."
