Chapter 123 123. Deterrence
The final Uzumaki shrine is located in a narrow cave.
However, after the reconstruction of Uzushio Village, the reconstruction of Uzumaki Shrine was also put on the agenda, and a mountain forest far away from the busy city was selected as the site for the establishment of the shrine.
Following Naruto into the forest step by step, Jiraiya sighed softly and his body became tense.
He has never shown much hostility towards Uzushio Village, but the leader Menma cannot let him run amok in Uzushio Village. After being far away from the densely populated and prosperous area, there will still be a battle after all.
But this played into his own agenda, and he didn't want to hurt too many innocent people.
He has mastered the magic of immortality and necromancy, and he also needs an open place to perform them in order to exert his greatest strength.
After arriving at Uzumaki Shrine, Shisui and Kamon had been waiting for a long time. Also appearing together was an old man with gray hair and beard, exuding an aura that was not easy to mess with.
After seeing Jiraiya, Uzumaki Ashina frowned: "Menma, this is the junior ninja sent by Konoha. The chakra looks very strong. No wonder you want to lead him to the shrine."
When Jiraiya heard this, alarm bells rang in his heart.
Against Shisui and Menma, he was sure of a fight. If that didn't work, he could choose to retreat. But with a mysterious old jounin, he had almost no chance of winning, and he might even die here.
After thinking of this, Jiraiya put his fingers next to his teeth, ready to summon Toad Sage at any time.
At this time, Naruto shook his head slightly, walked to Uzumaki Ashina and said: "You don't need to take action to deal with a Sannin. I just heard that you wanted to build an artificial lake behind the shrine, so I came here to help. "
Uzumaki Ashina touched his beard: "I have this idea, but the artificial lake can be built slowly, and the reconstruction of Uzushio Village is the big thing. I don't need to enjoy this."
"That's why I came here to help. By the way, I'm telling you that I'm back."
After chatting for a while, Naruto used the wind attribute chakra to create a whirlwind. He stepped on the whirlwind and arrived dozens of meters above the shrine. He then began to mobilize the Nine-Tails chakra and condensed a spiral halo in the palm of his hand.
As time went by, the size of the spiral wheel changed from a ping pong ball to the size of a millstone, exuding terrifying fluctuations.
After feeling this huge chakra, Jiraiya's expression was gloomy and uncertain. Shisui, Zabuza and others in the distance also widened their eyes, and trembling from their souls emerged in their hearts.
The next moment, as the spiral wheel Yu came out of his hand, a white light enveloped the earth.
After the white light disappeared in an instant, the entire earth began to shake, and a mushroom cloud appeared in the sky above the explosion area. The incomparable air waves caused the animals in the forest to be blown directly by the wind and fall to the ground.
A few minutes later, as the smoke and dust dissipated, a semicircular pit appeared not far from the shrine.
Naruto directly asked the shadow clone to mobilize the water flow of the underground river, allowing it to slowly fill the potholes, forming a natural artificial lake.
After flexing his muscles, Naruto came to Jiraiya again and said with a smile:
"As for the question half an hour ago, Mr. Jiraiya must have already answered it. Because I wanted to build a village, I asked Uchiha to join me. Besides, does Mr. Jiraiya have any other questions?"
After seeing this, Jiraiya put down the finger from his mouth and gave up the idea of summoning Toad Sage.
The other party didn't want to give up Uchiha, and at the same time expressed his desire not to antagonize Konoha, so he expressed his attitude in this way and threatened him as a Sannin.
Judging from the strength shown by the opponent, even if Konoha can defeat Uzushio Village, it will still suffer huge casualties.
What's more important is the large-scale ninjutsu displayed by the opponent. With this ninjutsu alone, the five major ninja villages will lose face to the country of whirlpool. No one wants the center of the ninja village to be exploded.
Therefore, he was destined to be unable to take Uchiha away from the Kingdom of Whirlpool. Even if he wanted to escape intact, he had to depend on the other party's thoughts. This was a feeling that he, as a Sannin, could hardly understand.
Thinking of this, Jiraiya sighed softly: "There are no other questions for now."
Hearing this, Naruto smiled slightly, and the other Uzushio Village ninjas also breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the current situation, Uzushio Village has provoked Orochimaru, and if Konoha is included, life will be even more difficult.
After the others left, Jiraiya and Naruto stood near the artificial lake and said seriously: "Menma, you do have the ability to establish a ninja village, but why did you establish a ninja village instead of defecting to Konoha? "
"Not to mention it's for Uchiha. Uzumaki and Uchiha have been enemies for decades. You can get better development in Konoha, and maybe you can become Hokage. This is much simpler than building a village."
Naruto glanced at Jiraiya and said disapprovingly: "Then he was trained as a jinchuriki and died fighting for Konoha? In the end, he couldn't even protect his own village? What kind of good person is this?"
Naruto was talking about Uzumaki Mito, but Jiraiya thought of Kushina.
Kushina was originally an orphan of Uzushio Village. After more than ten years of getting along, she finally recognized the will of fire, became Minato's wife, and became a member of the Konoha Ninja Village.
It can be said that the will of fire is the key to Konoha being recognized by war orphans like him.
But Uzushio Village did better than Konoha at this point, and Konoha's will of fire seemed to have lost its purity, which could no longer be the reason for Menma to join Konoha.
After thinking for a long time, Jiraiya said slowly: "I will explain to the Hokage about Uchiha and stop him from holding him responsible for Uchiha's defection, but there is one thing I need to figure out."
"You said it, I'm listening."
At this point, Jiraiya's tone gradually became more serious: "Will Uzushio Village become a threat to Konoha in the future? Will it covet the land of the Land of Fire like other ninja villages?"
Naruto glanced at Jiraiya and sneered: "Konoha will not take the initiative to take action against Uzushio Village. Uzushio Village will not be Konoha's enemy, but that's all. Uzushio Village will no longer be Konoha's." We are allies, let alone die for Konoha."
Jiraiya breathed out: "This sentence is enough. I can guarantee that the direct descendants of the Hokage will not attack Uzushio Village. If someone attacks Uzushio Village, it must not be the ninja village of Konoha. You can do whatever you want... …”
Does this expel Danzo from Konoha? Naruto thought to himself.
At this moment, Jiraiya said abruptly: "In addition, if you have the chance, go back to Konoha and see. In fact, Konoha is not as bad as you think, at least it is much better than other ninja villages."
"If I have the chance, I will go to Konoha to see it, but not now."
