Chapter 124 124. Taking a different direction
After declining Jiraiya's invitation, Naruto took a deep look at the back of the person in front of him.
After witnessing the power of the spiral wheel, Jiraiya seemed to have lost interest in sightseeing and walked toward the center of Uzushio Village with his back turned.
Naruto didn't follow Jiraiya immediately. He didn't think Jiraiya would take the opportunity to cause the Uzumaki Rebellion.
In his impression, Jiraiya is a good old man who pursues world peace, provided that this peace is achieved under the leadership of Konoha.
But the paradox is that Jiraiya always wants to find the Son of Prophecy to bring peace, rather than becoming the Son of Prophecy.
It is extremely unreliable to place your future and hope on an illusory savior. It is better to become Hokage and take the initiative to create the future as the leader of the number one ninja village in the ninja world.
Compared to this most core issue, whether his identity as the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki was exposed was secondary.
It is impossible for Jiraiya and the Third Hokage to reveal his identity to the public, and the remaining Danzo cannot be considered a threat at all. If Danzo really dares to step out of Konoha, there will be many people who want to deal with Danzo. a lot of.
After sighing with emotion, Naruto jumped to the roof of the Uzumaki Shrine, looked at the Uzushio Village neighborhood in the distance, and fell into deep thought.
After seeing that no conflict broke out between Naruto and Jiraiya, Namikaze Minato breathed a sigh of relief.
Naruto and Kyuubi have established a bond, and their strength has reached the so-called Kage level. Teacher Jiraiya, who has mastered senjutsu, is also a ninja at the level of the Five Kages. There is no mercy in the battle between the two.
If anyone gets injured, it will be a torment for him.
After all, one party is the parent and son who inherits his own bloodline, and the other party is the mentor who teaches and teaches.
Naruto suddenly came to the sealed space, looked at Namikaze Water Gate for a few times, and said with a chuckle: "The Fourth Hokage, don't you plan to meet Jiraiya and renew the fate of master and disciple? If we can cooperate inside and outside, I can You will be defeated!"
Facing the weird Naruto, Namikaze Minato shook his head: "What if I go to see Mr. Jiraiya? Let him recall those painful memories? The dead should not interfere too much in the ninja world. good."
"You were obviously only in your twenties when you died, but did you speak in such an old-fashioned way?"
Hearing this, Namikaze Minato was stunned: "You are old-fashioned. When I was your age, I was still studying in a ninja school, and I could only defeat a few Kirigakure jounin. How could I have the ability to build a ninja village?" "
Naruto's face gradually became serious, and he corrected: "Actually, strictly speaking, you are not a dead person, you should be the chakra left in the Bagua seal of the fourth generation. The real fourth generation Hokage is still sealed in the stomach of the god of death. This It’s the price for using the corpse-sealing technique.”
"Yes, I am just a chakra clone, not the real body..."
Namikaze Minato also realized this, but he didn't understand what Naruto wanted to say. There seemed to be something in his words.
Naruto stared at Namikaze Minato, and then said: "So I am very curious, how can you sustain a chakra clone for so long? And why does the clone technique inherit the memory of the caster? After the death of the original body, the body If the clone of you breaks down, will the memory be transferred back to the dead body?"
A series of doubts made Namikaze Minato fall into deep thought, and he could not give an answer immediately.
In fact, when he first learned about shadow clones when he was young, he had similar doubts, but he quickly focused on practicing and did not inquire into the details.
After a moment, Naruto smiled and shook his head: "Why are I talking to a clone about this? Instead of worrying about this, it is better to find a way to get in touch with more tailed beasts and have the strength to deal with the masked man and the Akatsuki organization as soon as possible."
With that said, Naruto left the sealed space, leaving only Namikaze Minato still thinking independently.
…
Jiraiya's side.
From the remote Uzumaki Shrine to the streets of Uzushio Village, Jiraiya's mood was very complicated.
After arriving in the Kingdom of Whirlpool, he found Orochimaru, the defected Uchiha clan, and even Naruto, the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki whom he longed for.
These things should have been good things, but after seeing Naruto transform into Menma and lead Uchiha to establish Uzumaki Village, he couldn't be happy no matter what. Instead, he had some doubts about life.
Why did Naruto run away on Uchiha night?
Was it because he was treated unfairly as the son of a hero, or because he saw himself in Uchiha, so he felt sympathy, or was it because he simply hated the Konoha Ninja Village that was no longer pure?
But these are not the reasons for Naruto to leave the village. He is Minato's son and the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki in the village.
As long as you grow along the established path, you will sooner or later become an important high-level member of the village. If you are dissatisfied with the village, you can slowly change it through reforms. There is no need to rebuild Uzushio Village on the ruins of the Country of Uzumaki.
It can be said that after seeing Naruto threatening him with the Rasengan Yu, he gave up the idea of taking Naruto to travel around the ninja world.
Judging from Naruto's performance, he has formed a set of values of his own. The decisive look in his eyes reminded him of the old man from more than ten years ago, and he was no longer an ignorant ninja school student.
Jiraiya's aimless wandering aroused Shisui's alert, and he had been staring at Jiraiya for a long time.
After noticing the prying eyes, Jiraiya turned around and said, "Shisui, there is no need to hide. I have already discussed the Uchiha matter with Menma and will not take action against you runaway Uchiha."
Shisui flashed in front of Jiraiya and said without letting down his guard: "This is not just an Uchiha problem. With Jiraiya-sama's strength, just appearing in Uzushio Village is enough to attract attention."
Jiraiya looked stunned and said with a smile: "That's right. I just thought of this place as Konoha. We are now ninjas in two villages. We should stay vigilant."
After a pause, Jiraiya continued: "However, you Uchiha should be responsible for security work now, just like when you were the first and second generation adults. I hope that you will not lead the Uchiha clan to become the next security force."
Shisui's face was a little gloomy, but then he smiled and said: "I believe in Menma-sama's vision. Besides, even if he becomes the next security force, Uchiha will not make the same mistake again and be alienated a second time."
"May you get what you want!"
After sending his blessings, Jiraiya did not want to stay too long in Uzushio Village and hurriedly left the area of Uzushio Village.
Before leaving, Jiraiya glanced in the direction of Uzumaki Shrine, and Naruto's gaze happened to be looking over. After looking at each other, the two of them looked away and walked in different directions.
