Chapter 1012 Failure

Just when Jiraiya was worried, he suddenly thought of Naruto. Although Naruto's perception ability was not yet fully mature, it was unique and might be able to find some clues. So he immediately went to find Naruto.

"Naruto, there is an emergency now. We have encountered an extremely difficult opponent. He is elusive and even his body can disappear." Jiraiya said seriously.

Naruto's eyes became firm: "I understand, teacher, I will do my best."

Naruto came to the scene, closed his eyes and concentrated his perception. Suddenly, he sensed a faint and strange chakra fluctuation. "Teacher, there is something strange here."

Everyone followed the direction Naruto pointed and entered a hidden valley. There was a barrier looming in the valley. Naruto tried to inject chakra into the barrier and actually opened a gap. A man in black robes appeared inside, performing strange ninjutsu on a pile of corpses. It turned out that he used a special space barrier to hide and deal with corpses, and could also transfer instantly. Jiraiya and others quickly attacked, and finally subdued the man in black robes after a fierce battle. After subduing the man in black robes, everyone surrounded him. Naruto asked curiously, "Why did you do this?" The man in black robes sneered, "You ninjas of Konoha Village will never understand my pain. My family was innocently affected by the war and died. I want you to taste the taste of losing your loved ones." Jiraiya sighed, "Using this cruel method will only bring more hatred." At this time, Minato rushed over and said after seeing the man in black robes, "It turned out to be you. We met once on the battlefield. You were resentful at that time, but I didn't expect it to become so extreme now." The man in black robes looked at him with disdain.

Later, Konoha Village decided to imprison the black-robed man and try to reform him. Naruto took the initiative to send food to the black-robed man every day and tried to talk to him. As the days passed, with Naruto's efforts, the ice in the black-robed man's heart gradually melted, and he began to reflect on his behavior. Finally, the black-robed man expressed his willingness to reform and contribute his knowledge of special barriers and strange ninjutsu, hoping to make up for the mistakes he made. Konoha Village accepted the black-robed man's kindness and arranged for someone to follow him to learn these special skills. Naruto often came to visit, and a wonderful friendship gradually established between the two.

However, the good times did not last long. Other villages learned that the black-robed man was in Konoha Village and was teaching special ninjutsu, and they became jealous and worried. One night, a group of mysterious ninjas sneaked into Konoha Village and tried to kidnap the black-robed man. A battle broke out, and the Konoha ninjas rose up to resist.

Naruto was the first to rush to the cell of the black-robed man, only to find that he was seriously injured. The black-robed man said weakly: "I have implicated you." Naruto held his hand and said: "We are friends, let's face it together." Then he led the black-robed man to break out.

In the end, with everyone's joint efforts, the attackers were repelled. After this incident, Konoha Village paid more attention to the safety of the black-robed man. The black-robed man devoted himself to teaching the Konoha ninjas. He was moved by the trust and tolerance given by Konoha Village and completely let go of his hatred. Naruto also grew up a lot because of this incident. He understood that as long as you treat each other sincerely, even enemies can become friends, and peace needs everyone to protect it together.

As the black-robed man taught his skills without reservation, the strength of Konoha Village was significantly improved. Many young ninjas learned the use of special barriers and the basic principles of that strange ninjutsu.

However, under the calm, there were undercurrents. Some Konoha high-ranking officials were worried that the Black Robe Man's skills would be leaked, and they advocated limiting the scope of the Black Robe Man's teaching. This decision caused a lot of controversy, and Naruto was firmly opposed.

While they were arguing, news came from afar that several villages had united to attack Konoha, on the grounds that Konoha had monopolized the black-robed man's technology. Konoha Village had to prepare for war.

Naruto found the man in black robes and asked him to help improve the defense strategy. The man in black robes readily agreed. When the battle came, Konoha Village successfully resisted the coalition attack with the tactical arrangements of the man in black robes and the new technologies everyone had learned. After the war, Konoha Village re-examined its attitude towards the man in black robes and decided to open up some technology sharing to promote peaceful exchanges between villages. Naruto smiled with relief. He knew that the road to peace was full of ups and downs, but as long as he kept working hard, he would get wider and wider. However, not all villages appreciated Konoha Village's sharing. One of the remote villages believed that Konoha had ulterior motives for this move, but it was just a way to appease the powerful. This small village secretly colluded with a group of rebellious ninjas and planned a new conspiracy.

One day, Naruto, who was training, suddenly felt an ominous aura. He went to investigate and found a group of strangers at the entrance of the village. The leader turned out to be the leader of the rebel ninja who had attacked Konoha before. They used a strange formation to interfere with Konoha's alarm system.

Naruto rushed forward without hesitation and fought with them. But the formation was too strange and Naruto could not deal with it for a while. At the critical moment, the black-robed man came and saw the flaw in the formation. Under his guidance, Naruto broke the formation in one fell swoop.

Konoha Village once again realized that external threats always exist. The villagers began to unite as one, not only improving their martial arts, but also actively exploring diplomatic ways to resolve conflicts. Naruto also became more mature and stable in the process, and became the object of admiration of the new generation of ninjas in Konoha Village. The black-robed man truly integrated into Konoha, and his name was engraved on the hero monument of Konoha, symbolizing the power of tolerance and reconciliation. Many years later, Naruto became an important figure in Konoha Village. He inherited the will of his master Jiraiya and traveled around the world to promote Konoha's concept of peace.

Once, he came to the remote village that had misunderstood Konoha Village. The village was facing a huge crisis at this time. Years of drought had caused crops to fail, and they were also plundered by bandits. Naruto did not stand idly by because of past grudges. He led Konoha's medical ninjas and agricultural experts to come to help.

At first, the villagers were wary of him, but after seeing Naruto's sincere actions, they gradually let down their guard. Naruto helped them reclaim farmland, build water conservancy facilities, and cured many sick villagers.

The village chief was filled with gratitude and regretted misunderstanding Konoha. Naruto smiled and said, "Let the past be the past. We are all friends now. Only by supporting each other can we move towards a better future."

This incident spread to all villages, and the prestige of Konoha Village was further enhanced. Naruto also became a recognized peace envoy in the entire ninja world. His deeds inspired generations of ninjas to pursue peace and friendship. From then on, the ninja world entered a period of relative peace and stability.
