Chapter 165: The determination to never give up! Jiraiya and Naruto's 1st ramen dinner party!!

Kisame looked at Pein and began to report the situation: "We just captured the Four-Tails Jinchuriki. In order to prevent him from escaping, we had to tie him up, which delayed us a bit."

"So, what do you want to see us about?" Kisame asked.

"There is information I want to share with everyone right away."

Everyone was silent, waiting for Payne to speak.

"Orochimaru was killed."

When this was said, everyone was a little surprised, but Kisame sneered disdainfully:

"Hehe, ten years after leaving Akatsuki, does this save us the trouble of killing him?"

"I really want to see what that guy looked like when he died. Why didn't you two zombies die? Otherwise, I also want to see how you guys look like when you die."

"Damn Kisame! When my body recovers, I will let you taste my power!" Feiduan shouted in dissatisfaction.

"Then I'll be waiting for you for a long time." Kisame was not afraid at all.

"Hidan and Kaku are our companions, don't say such things." Pain said softly.

Listening to Pain's speech, Kisame nodded politely.

"Excuse me, the one who almost killed Hidan and the others at that time was indeed..."

"A guy from Konoha Village." Kisame said with a smile.

"It's Kakashi and the Nine-Tails' Jinchuriki team." Zetsu also spoke at this time.

"They are really strong. That team, Deidara-senpai, was beaten badly."

"It seems that the only one who is not at a disadvantage is Hanane...Senior? Or little Hanane?" Ah Fei scratched his head.

"Whatever you call me." Hua Yin said indifferently. She didn't have a good face towards A Fei. She didn't know whether this guy was the masked man at that time.

"A Fei! Bastard, say that again and I'll tell you! My bag of patience is going to explode! Hmm!" Deidara roared.

"Don't be like this, don't be like this. The Patience Bag exists to make you patient."

"That thing Deidara-senpai has is called an explosive bag, it's always about to explode."

"Asshole, Ah Fei, come here!"

"Deidara, you're too noisy!" Kanon covered her ears.

"Kane-chan! This guy really deserves a beating!"

"I support you in beating him up, but my senior brother has something to say."

Pein also spoke at this moment: "Deidara, be quiet, isn't this the same as what A Fei said?"

"Tsk." Deidara turned his head away.

"Hahaha, I'm being taught a lesson by my senior!" Ah Fei laughed awkwardly.

"And you, Ah Fei, you always talk too much. You should respect your seniors!"

"Yes! Sorry."

"Can we gather the remaining Jinchūriki just like this?" Kisame looked around. It would take time for the horns to recover, let alone Hidan. It would be impossible within a year.

These two guys are completely useless. Can the remaining people really capture the tailed beast?

Pain also sighed softly. Kanon was going to withdraw from the tailed beast capture operation for a while. She also had her own private matters to prepare. Pain would not interfere with Kanon's choice. She had done enough for the organization.

At this moment, Payne had no one left to do anything but himself.

"However, he was really good at killing Orochimaru," Kisame sighed.

Then he looked directly at Payne: "So, who did it?"

Payne turned his head and glanced at Kanon, obviously wanting Kanon to speak.

"My brother, Uchiha Sasuke."

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned, and Deidara's expression changed slightly.

"It's already been decided that I will be the one to kill Orochimaru! Hmm." Deidara was a little unhappy.

"You are so capable, Mr. Itachi. You are worthy of being your younger brother." Kisame looked at Itachi.

At this time, Jue also got Sasuke's information out.

"Now he is gathering his companions, and they are all troublesome characters."

"Jue, you are quite quick in getting information." Hua Yin raised the corner of her mouth slightly.

Jue glanced meaningfully at Hanane in the distance.

"For example?" asked Kisame.

"You should be familiar with this person as well." Payne said softly.

"One of the Kizuna brothers from the Hidden Mist Village."

"It's Shuiyue. I really miss it."

Payne looked at everyone and continued to remind them.

"There's also Juugo from Libra here, so be careful, Itachi, Kisame."

"Everyone else should also be on guard against Uchiha Sasuke, who may try to obtain information about Itachi and Kisame and target Akatsuki."

"No need, brother."

"Ok?"

"I'm with Sasuke-san now. I haven't leaked any information about Akatsuki, but that bastard..." Kanon looked at Uchiha Itachi with a sneer.

"Sigh..." Pain lowered his head. Kanon and Sasuke were very close, so how could he not tell Sasuke the news about Itachi?

At this time, Deidara spoke up: "Kisame, what kind of person is that, the guy named Suigetsu."

"That was ten years ago. At that time, he was a child smiling with a cute face, a child prodigy known as Demon Zabuza."

Deidara raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "These people seem very interesting."

Ah Fei was stunned when he heard this and waved his hands hurriedly.

"Wait, wait, Deidara-senpai, please stop having such strange interests."

"Personally, Itachi, Kisame, bring the Four-Tails here quickly and prepare to seal it," Pain ordered.

With that, everyone dispersed.

Hanane opened her eyes.

"Hana, have you seen that guy?"

"I saw it." Hanane nodded.

"The organization still has things to do, brother, I have to go and prepare as well. I have already given you all the information about Itachi, and next I have to prepare for revenge as well."

"Kane, you bastard, you said that killing Itachi is up to me, your brother."

"How is that possible! Brother, you understand, I hate him just as much as you do. Just like you don't want me to take risks, I don't want you to take risks either."

Sasuke was speechless and looked at his sister with a complicated expression. He was not stupid, and he also understood that his sister felt the same way as he did, and neither of them was willing to let the other take risks.

"In that case, let's have a competition to see who can kill him first," said Hanane.

"Okay... I'll go protect the law first, and then I'll go find Deidara. It looks like that guy is going to get in your way."

After Hanane finished speaking, she was enveloped by a vortex of roses and disappeared from the place, leaving only the four members of the [Snake] team.

"He left." Shuiyue said softly.

"It's time for us to take action." Sasuke nodded and patted Karin, who seemed to be reluctant to leave. As a result, this guy took the opportunity to rub against her.

"Sasuke is also OK as Kanon-chan's brother!"

......

The entrance to Konoha Village.

"In order to meet Sasuke, let's target the most likely Akatsuki member."

"That's not wrong, Uchiha Itachi, what should we do?" Tsunade sat at the table, thinking deeply.

Sakura also gave her own opinion after hearing this: "If we can catch a member of Akatsuki."

"Next we can ask Ibiki-sensei to ask for information on Itachi."

"I think you can still ask."

After hearing this, Tsunade sighed helplessly: "Indeed, I have ordered each team to capture members of Akatsuki if possible and bring them back, but..."

Kakashi also pushed the door open at this moment and continued Tsunade's words: "Actually, it's still difficult."

"Those guys aren't the kind of people who would easily reveal their secrets. Judging from the abilities of the people I've fought so far, they can't be said to be extremely dangerous."

“But it’s still difficult to subdue.”

Hearing Kakashi's almost unanswerable answer, Naruto gritted his teeth and asked, "Then what should we do?"

"Until we meet Itachi, we can only look for him patiently."

Jiraiya, who had not spoken for a long time, now understood what everyone meant.

"Going after Itachi in order to meet Sasuke and Kanon?"

"But, we have found Itachi, and then what should we do."

"I have an idea about this. Can you give me a little time?" Kakashi said to everyone.

Ichiraku Ramen.

Naruto and Jiraiya sat in the store sipping ramen.

"Really, Kakashi-sensei, I have to start taking action right now."

"No choice. We need to make corresponding preparations before departure."

"Prepare?"

"You, the First Squad, are the only ones who can do nothing."

"What's going on?" Naruto wondered.

Jiraiya looked at Naruto who was confused, smiled kindly, and answered his question:

"Listen carefully. If we kill Itachi, Sasuke and Kanon's target will disappear."

"In other words, we must capture Uchiha Itachi alive."

“Therefore, more people are needed to form a team to act.”

"Kakashi should be busy preparing this right now."

"Is that so?" Naruto seemed to understand.

"Yes, but the opponent is very strong."

"For this mission, the usual methods won't work."

After taking a bite of noodles, Naruto nodded slightly: "That's probably the case, but no matter what, I can't escape this mission."

"Is it to bring back Kanon and Sasuke?"

"I think you know that Sasuke now has the same power as Orochimaru, and I, as a master, don't have an accurate judgment of Kanon's strength."

"Of course I know this kind of thing."

"But, Kanon is my best friend, and Sakura and I made a promise before."

"I will definitely bring Sasuke back."

"I can't break my promise!"

Jiraiya looked at Naruto with a determined look in his eyes and smiled. It was great to have a disciple like Naruto.

Naruto and Kanon are like two extremes, but Jiraiya still believes that the most important thing about a ninja's talent is not the number of ninjutsu he has mastered.

What is important is the perseverance to never give up.

The disciple's ninjutsu is destined to be taught by his master.

Jiraiya looked at Naruto and his reflection in his face, and seemed to see Kanon's face in Naruto's reflection.

"Really, you and Kanon are both idiots as always."

"I can't help it. After all, he is the disciple of the lecherous immortal."

"Really? I really do have two useless apprentices."

"Useless? What do you mean by useless?" Naruto said dissatisfiedly.

"Of course it's meant literally, you stupid apprentice!"

"In that case, the lecherous immortal is just like what Hanane said."

"He's just a lousy, lecherous old man!"

"Here, eat this too." Jiraiya didn't care about Naruto's nonsense and put the barbecued pork into Naruto's bowl.

When Naruto saw the barbecued pork, his anger instantly disappeared and he ate it with a satisfied look on his face.

Jiraiya held his chin and looked at Naruto with a smile.

"Sure enough, Ichiraku's char siu is the best!"
