Chapter 379 Jiraiya's Troubles
As plates of barbecue and drinks were brought to the table, everyone started to eat.
When old friends get together, there’s naturally not much to be said for it.
The adults were toasting each other and chatting happily.
The children ate heartily, occasionally whispering to each other.
After a few drinks, everyone started talking more.
The atmosphere in the entire box is very warm and harmonious.
"Jiraiya, you didn't ask Maki to come?"
Putting down the empty wine glass in her hand, Tsunade seemed to suddenly remember something.
Everyone brought their families with them, except Jiraiya, whose wife was not with him.
"Oh, Maki..."
Jiraiya was just about to find an excuse to get away with it, but his son spoke first.
"My mother beat up my father a few days ago, and then she went back to Fushiko Village alone."
Naruto said nonchalantly, not even swallowing the barbecue in his mouth.
Looking at his calm expression, you can tell that this is definitely not the first time this has happened.
Perhaps he has long been accustomed to this way of getting along between his parents.
As usual, Dad would go and coax Mom back in a few days.
But his interruption forced Jiraiya to swallow back what he was saying.
He stared at Naruto with his eyes twitching.
You little brat, don’t you know that family disgrace should not be made public?
Besides, what do you mean by beating me up? That was just me giving in to your mother, okay?
"Brother Jiraiya, you're not going to collect materials again, are you?"
In front of so many children, Sheng Shu didn't say it very explicitly, but those who were able to understand understood it.
Only the children were confused.
"Bullshit, I haven't been to that kind of place for a long time."
Jiraiya almost choked on his wine. This kind of thing should not be talked about casually.
Although I once took the young Rope Tree to collect wood, that is now a thing of the past.
"Dad, what does it mean to collect materials?"
Naruto blinked his big eyes with curiosity, he couldn't understand the height of his eyebrows at all.
Just based on these few sentences, a loving education is definitely in place.
"Don't ask so many questions, little kid. Eat your meat."
Jiraiya glared at Naruto, he really couldn't explain this kind of thing.
When I think back to the ridiculous things I did when I was young, I feel a little embarrassed.
"Better not."
"If that's the case, beating you up would be considered light."
Tsunade stared at Jiraiya with a half-smile. She had beaten Jiraiya many times in the past just because of the matter of collecting materials.
"It's really not true."
Jiraiya felt very wronged, as he had retired from criminal activities for many years.
"you sure?"
Orochimaru's three light words completely broke Jiraiya's defense.
But it's no wonder that Orochimaru doesn't trust him, because he took Orochimaru to peek outside the women's bath when they were children.
In the end, Orochimaru turned and left without even a glance, leaving Jiraiya alone and having a basin of hot water poured on his head by an old lady.
As the saying goes, it is difficult to change one's nature, and Orochimaru felt that it would not be surprising if Jiraiya committed the same mistake again.
"I really didn't, believe it or not."
As if he was angry, Jiraiya drank a full glass of wine by himself.
Why doesn't anyone believe the truth these days?
"Jiraiya, I believe you."
In Jiraiya's eyes, Kawa Feng seemed to be the embodiment of justice at this moment, and his eyes became hot when he looked at him.
"Brothers."
When these three words came out, everyone present was shocked. Jiraiya shouted with so much emotion.
If you don't know, you would really think that he and Chuan Feng are half-brothers! !
"Then tell me why Maki had a conflict with you."
Chuan Feng was very good at choosing words, and being beaten unilaterally became a conflict in his mouth.
This question completely ignored Jiraiya's abundant emotions. There was only the flame of gossip burning in his eyes.
"I..."
Jiraiya was choked. It seemed that this grandson still didn't believe in him.
"Tell me, tell me."
Dai and Zhenhong were cheering on the side, but the children didn't dare to be too ostentatious and only dared to glance at them out of the corner of their eyes.
"I see through you."
It's not something shameful, and at this point Jiraiya is too lazy to hide it.
Pointing at his friends with a look of disappointment on his face, Jiraiya paused and continued speaking.
"Maki is from Nadeshiko Village, you all know this, right?"
Chuan Feng and the others nodded repeatedly. Of course they knew this.
"Nadeshiko Village is a peculiar place."
Jiraiya's eyes began to wander as he recalled his first visit to Nadeshiko Village.
"Their village is a matriarchal society, and the men are all outsiders who were defeated and married into the family."
"Maki was originally this generation's village chief, but I defeated him and brought him back to Konoha."
"It is her sister who has taken over the position of village chief now."
"You know how hard it is for a female ninja to be better than a male ninja."
"Their village is almost extinct and there is no way to accept new male villagers."
"A few years ago, Maki's sister wrote to me."
"I want Maki to help see if we can send some Konoha ninjas over there."
"They said they would never force you to stay. They would only accept those who have been defeated and truly want to stay."
"Maki told me, and I just refused."
Jiraiya's words were righteous. He refused in order to prevent the loss of talent in Konoha.
After all, as a man, he has a say in how tempting a country of women is.
"Are there many beautiful women in Nadeshiko Village?"
Dai's eyes began to light up, and if there hadn't been so many people around, his wife would have beaten him up on the spot.
“Most of them are pretty good.”
Jiraiya thought about it and gave a fair evaluation.
"Save a place for Kai and Jia. When they grow up and can't find wives, send them to Nadeshiko Village."
"At least bring me a daughter-in-law."
Dai is really far-sighted, and parents all over the world are so pitiful!!
"Cough cough~"
A didn't quite understand and Kai was choked.
He took the water handed to him by Kakashi and was able to avoid choking to death.
"Dad, I'm only seven years old."
Kai's face was full of resentment. Does his father have so little confidence in him?
Although I am not popular with girls now, who knows, someone might be blind in the future.
"What's wrong with being seven years old? If you make plans early, you will have more options."
Before Dai could answer, Kai's mother had already stood on the same front as her husband.
God knows what he liked about this green-skinned monster with a middle part at that time.
She gave birth to two copies without knowing why. It's really pitiful to God.
"What Auntie said makes sense."
Kakashi patted Gai's shoulder and stabbed him deeply.
"How can you say that? Kai just prefers playing with male classmates."
"He has a good relationship with Asuma and Obito."
It would have been fine if Hong didn't say anything, but when she spoke, Dai and Kai's mother became nervous.
It’s okay if you don’t have any popularity with the opposite sex, but you shouldn’t be too popular with the same sex.
"thank you."
Kai looked at Hong speechlessly. Does he like playing with boys?
There's nothing I can do if the girl doesn't like me.
"I'm afraid Nadeshiko Village won't last until Kai grows up."
Jiraiya was also shocked by Dai's train of thought.
"That's such a shame."
Dai sighed, as if he had suffered a great loss.
"If you refuse, then the matter will be over, right?"
Fugaku continued to ask questions in order to satisfy Mikoto's curiosity.
