Chapter 185 Jiraiya’s Doubt

"It's not easy to survive in the hands of jinchuriki, and you guys..."

At this point, Jiraiya seemed to realize something and asked with a shocked look on his face: "Wait... what you just said was that you eliminated the two-tailed Jinchūriki?"

Byakuya found a seat at random and sat down, and said disapprovingly: "With the strength of Shisui and I, it is not easy to destroy the two-tailed Jinchuuriki. Doesn't it sound strange?"

Of course it's strange, that's a jinchūriki with a tailed beast in his body...

Except for the first Hokage and Uchiha Madara during the Warring States Period, everyone would attach great importance to the jinchuriki. After all, a jinchuriki is not only a jinchuriki, but also a tailed beast within the body that is like a natural disaster.

However, considering the age of the two-tailed Jinchuuriki, Byakuya and Shisui have a chance to defeat Yukito.

After all, Shisui is the number one genius in Uchiha, and Byakuya is a monster who can kill ordinary jounin instantly.

After pondering for a moment, Jiraiya chuckled and said: "The reward for destroying the Jinchuuriki is difficult to estimate. I need to report it to the Hokage and listen to the Hokage's opinion."

"But don't worry, Brother Byakuya, Konoha will definitely give you a suitable reward."

Hearing this, Bai Ye nodded with satisfaction, and then whispered:

"I didn't expect that I would get an unexpected reward when I came to ask for reward this time. Not only could I get rewarded for rescuing Uchiha, but I could also get Yukito's bounty."

Bai Ye's muttering was very quiet, but it was very clear in Jiraiya's ears, and doubts arose in his heart at the same time.

Could it be that Yukito was not eliminated by Byakuya, but by Shisui's team?

Thinking of this, Jiraiya looked at Zhisui aside and asked: "Zhisui, please tell me about your experience in this mission in detail..."

Shisui nodded slightly and came up with his prepared words.

In Shisui's words, their team met Yumu Ren who was acting alone. After a hard battle, Yumu Ren was finally controlled, but he almost died in the explosion of the tailed beast jade.

After hearing these words, Jiraiya looked suspicious and doubted Shisui's words.

It's not like he hasn't fought against jinchuriki before. Jinchuuriki can't be that easy to deal with, but the fighting power of the Sharingan is well known in the ninja world. In the case of a sneak attack, there is no chance of victory.

If Shisui really defeated Yukito, then Uchiha would have a Kage-level powerhouse.

At this time, Byakuya glanced at Shisui fiercely, and then said angrily: "It was Shisui who destroyed the Jinchuuriki, but if I hadn't taken action, Shisui and the two tails would have perished together long ago."

"Brother Jiraiya, given our relationship, you will definitely add my name."

As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the attention of all the ninjas here, and they had a new understanding of Bai Ye's shamelessness.

Jiraiya said somewhat dumbfounded:

"I will mention you more in front of the Hokage, but destroying the two-tailed jinchuriki is no small matter. I still need to formulate a future strategy. You can go down for now."

Hearing this, Shisui and Byakuya left in a hurry without staying in the command room too long.

After Byakuya, Shisui and others left, Jiraiya put away the smile on his face and said to the room behind him: "Shikaku, Dingza, you think what Byakuya and Shisui said is somewhat credible. "

Nara Shikaku walked out of the room, looked at Jiraiya and said: "We will know in a few days whether the two-tailed Jinchuuriki will be eliminated or not, and there is no need for Byakuya and Shisui to deceive us."

Hearing this, Jiraiya sighed softly and said, "Shikaku, you know that's not what I asked."

Nara Shikaku frowned and said with some doubts: "Then what is Lord Jiraiya doubting? Eliminating the two-tailed Jinchuuriki is a good thing for the village. Uchiha also got the credit they wanted."

"That's right... I'm worrying too much."

Seeing Nara Shikaku deliberately pretending to be stupid, Jiraiya no longer bothered with the details.

In Jiraiya's view, there were many loopholes in Byakuya and Shisui's words, and they were suspected of selling their credit to Uchiha.

After all, it was impossible to defeat the Jinchuuriki with Shisui's strength.

Unless Shisui possesses the legendary Mangekyō Sharingan, but if Shisui really possesses the Mangekyō Sharingan, the village may be in trouble again.

Nara Shikaku also guessed this, so he deliberately pretended to be dumbfounded.

He didn't want to get involved in the conflict between the Hokage Building and Uchiha. Uchiha got the credit for eliminating the two-tailed Jinchuuriki this time, which was not necessarily a good thing for Uchiha.

Collecting his thoughts that were gradually diverging, Jiraiya asked Nara Shikaku:

"Shikaku, when do you think it would be better for me to report the news about Yukito to the Hokage? If Yukito is really eliminated, should we continue to defend, or should we take the opportunity to launch a counterattack?"

Nara Shikaku thought for a moment, and then said: "Jiraiya-sama, Kumogakure may not have received the news of Yukito's death at the moment. This is a good time for us to fight back."

After a slight pause, Shikaku continued: "But my opinion is to continue to stick to this place."

"Why?" Jiraiya didn't understand Shikaku's plan. It was clear that the best option at the moment was to expand the victory, but Shikaku persuaded him to continue to stick to this place.

Shikaku took a deep breath and explained to Jiraiya: "If this is just a simple battle, it would be best for us to attack the Land of Thunder itself and destroy Kumogakure Village."

"But the enemy of the village is not only Kumogakure. Once we attack the Kingdom of Thunder, there is no way Iwagakure and Kirigakure will not interfere with us."

"And Yuyin Village is our ally now, but it will be different in the future."

After hearing these words, Jiraiya's face hardened, and he understood what Nara Shikaku was thinking.

If Konoha fails in this invasion launched by Kumogakure, they will lose the country of Yu as an ally, and even lose the land in the northeast.

But if Kumogakure is completely defeated, Iwagakure and Kirigakure may secretly form an alliance with Kumogakure to fight against Konoha Ninja Village. Amegakure Village will also become stronger in the war, threatening Konoha's security.

Although Shikaku's words were very unpleasant, they were also suspected of destroying the friendship between Amegakure and Konoha.

But Jiraiya knew that Shikaku's guess was not completely unreasonable. Although Yahiko and others were in charge of the Hidden Rain Village at the moment, the real mastermind behind the scenes was Sansho Hanzo.

This demigod, who was so famous in the ninja world, had to be treated with caution.

Thinking of this, Jiraiya sighed softly. There were too many intrigues among the Ninja Village. The world he believed in where there was no war and mutual understanding between people might not exist.

As a ninja who longed for peace, his hands were already stained with blood.
