Chapter 573 Jiraiya and Nagato

"Finally done!"

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

"What a horrific aftermath!"

Seeing that the originally thick and flat enlarged earth flow wall in front of him had become tattered, Jiraiya relaxed a lot.

"Yeah~"

Beside him, Naruto, who felt his body being hollowed out, nodded in sympathy.

He didn't have any long-range attack methods. He had just used several free-hand versions of the 'Wind Release Spiral Shuriken', and his own chakra had been exhausted.

"Although we have survived this wave, big trouble is coming!"

As Jiraiya's words fell, the ground that had just been damaged into pits began to shake slightly.

There was a sound of 'rumbling' footsteps, and a huge monster that almost covered the entire field of vision stepped forward.

"...Nagato!"

Squinting his eyes, Jiraiya looked at the unusually small figure above the Ten-Tails, looking a little dazed.

"Naruto, you stay here, I'll go over and take a look!"

After finishing speaking, Jiraiya disappeared from Naruto's sight in the blink of an eye without waiting for Naruto's reaction.

There was only a faint sound of clogs treading in the distance.

"Wait a minute, lustful fairy!"

Looking at Jiraiya who was already drifting away, Naruto stretched out his hand and grabbed something empty.

"Mom, let me go and have a look!"

Seeing the direction in which Jiraiya was heading, Naruto gritted his teeth, gave instructions in the direction of Kushina, and chased the disappearing figure.

"Naruto, be careful!"

Now that my son has grown up, he is no longer the child who always had to teach him everything. There was nothing she could do except to tell her to pay attention to her safety.

"Nagato!"

After a few jumps, Jiraiya was not hindered by anything, and he arrived at the top of the Ten-Tails very smoothly, looking at the vaguely familiar face in front of him.

Scenes from his memory echoed in his mind. The look he looked at the other party was extremely complicated.

"Jiraiya...sensei!"

Not only Jiraiya, but Nagato also remembered the time he spent with Jiraiya.

There is Mr. Jiraiya who is open-minded and kind and likes to laugh, Yahiko who is very nervous and full of chuunii, Konan who always smiles and likes to fold paper quietly, and himself who just wants to protect the two of them.

Just in the blink of an eye, things really changed.

The former teachers and students have now become mortal enemies of each other.

"Luxury Immortal, wait for me!"

A sudden tremor caused the two people who were trapped in memories to return to reality.

With one hand raised in front of him, Nagato comforted the agitated Ten-Tails and cast his gaze in Naruto's direction.

"Kyuubi... Jinchuuriki!"

He also didn't expect that in order to avoid the fifth generation's sharp edge, he did not capture the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, but this guy actually came to him.

"Nagato, what do you want to do?"

"He is your junior brother!"

Jiraiya, who had been paying attention to Nagato's expression, knew what Nagato was planning when he saw his eyes.

He immediately took a step forward and stood in front of Naruto.

"This person...is also a disciple of the lustful immortal?"

With Jiraiya protecting him behind him, Naruto looked curiously at the young man in front of him who had the same hair color as his mother, and asked with a puzzled expression.

"…yes!"

Jiraiya responded with a somewhat gloomy expression, and continued:

"Nagato, what have you been through in these years of work?"

"I got the news that the three of you are dead, but now it seems that things are a little different from what I thought."

"Konan, and Yahiko, how are they two?"

"The two of them are in a very safe place!"

No longer obsessed with Kyuubi, Nagato looked at Jiraiya, his expression gradually becoming cold.

"Now that things have happened, Mr. Jiraiya insists on coming to see me. Does he intend to persuade me to give up my resistance?"

"Nagato, I don't know what happened to you that made you, who was originally silent, kind, and just wanted to quietly protect the two of them, become what you are today!"

"However, I believe that the era of mutual understanding between people will eventually come."

"childish!"

Faced with Jiraiya's preaching, Nagato just replied coldly.

"People can never understand each other unless they have experienced the same pain and empathized with each other."

"I'm afraid the teacher himself knows that his expectations are just a fantasy created to escape the cruel reality!"

Mr. Jiraiya is always so optimistic no matter what, but under this optimism, is there some helplessness hidden?

"Next, we will be relentless enemies!"

Reaching out with one hand, Nagato opened his fingers wide and slowly uttered a few words in his mouth.

"All things are attracted by heaven"

Now that we have decided to implement the 'Eye of the Moon' plan and have discussed the relationship between master and apprentice, there is nothing to hesitate.

"Naruto, be careful!"

Squatting down, Jiraiya tried his best to stabilize his body, and at the same time, he spoke to warn Naruto beside him.

"You go first, don't stay here!"

"No one can leave!"

The Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki who has been sent to him wants to leave...it's not that easy.

"careful!"

As soon as Nagato finished speaking, Fukasaku and Shima on his shoulders immediately reminded him.

It turned out that opposite Jiraiya, Nagato was using the 'All-Seeing Tension' with one hand, and a black iron rod appeared in the other hand, turning into a deadly spear and piercing Jiraiya's heart.

"No, this black stick is weird!"

Fukasaku and Shima Sennin, while reminding Jiraiya, used spells to intercept the black rod.

But beyond their expectations, the black rod directly broke through their ninjutsu and continued to stab Jiraiya's heart.

As for Jiraiya himself, resisting the 'All Things Tension' and not being sucked away by Nagato has already spent almost all of his energy.

"ha!"

At this critical moment, two golden chakra palms circled Jiraiya's body and grabbed the black rod.

"Naruto, great job!"

Seeing that they had blocked Nagato's attack, Fukasaku and Shima Sennin breathed a sigh of relief and praised them repeatedly.

"Hmph! Useless resistance~"

He was a little surprised by Naruto's strength, but he felt the emotions of the Ten-Tails rising again under him, and knew that it was because of the Nine-Tails chakra, so Nagato was not surprised.

The hand that originally used the All-Seeing Tension continued to increase the chakra input, and the other hand began to prepare a new ninjutsu.

"You guy!"

However, before his ninjutsu could be activated, a pair of golden fists clasped together struck Nagato on the head.

Naruto was not a person who would only fight back after being beaten. When he saw this disciple of Master Jiraiya, he turned out to be rebellious and wanted to kill his former teacher. At this time, he started to attack without holding back at all.
