Chapter 978 Proof

In the past twenty or thirty years, due to the rise of Sansho Hanzo, this small country with little sense of existence has become the center of competition between Konoha Village, Iwagakure Village and Sunagakure Village.

The trees want to be still but the wind is not stopping. Even if the residents of the war-torn Rain Country pray for peace, they cannot get it. The occasional peaceful days are also the time for the three great ninja villages to take a short rest.

Unlike the Kingdom of Grass, which has no bottom line and has no bottom line, the strength of the Kingdom of Rain has not declined much even after it became a battlefield for many years. If the "demigod" can be given a little more time to integrate the fragmented forces in the country and twist them into a rope, Maybe there is a chance to become a neutral country like the Iron Kingdom.

After Jiraiya had a fierce fight with Sansho Hanzo, on his way back, the people he met Nagato, Konan, and Yahiko were just a microcosm of the living conditions of civilians in the Land of Rain.

On the surface, Nagato's father Ise and mother Fuso were accidentally killed by Konoha ninjas, which was just a tragedy caused by an accident. But on the life-and-death battlefield, the ninjas who fought with all their strength, and those who were not focused enough, would have been killed long ago. He was killed. He accidentally killed a civilian because he failed to control his emotions under a shockingly high pressure. Although it wasn't too much, it really wasn't news.

When the "Akatsuki" organization was born, in addition to helping displaced refugees and collecting orphans, its first influential action was to try to mediate the war between Iwagakure and Konoha.

Unfortunately, the organization established by overly idealistic young people, with the dream of becoming a success, encountered major setbacks. The leader Yahiko died, Nagato was seriously injured and disabled, and most of the others were killed.

Even Daimaru couldn't know the details of the story that followed, and Jiraiya, who thought that the student he once took good care of, was dead long ago, was even less clear.

Jiraiya, who was a little anxious, still hoped that the possessed giant desert chameleon would be bolder and go to the Land of Rain to investigate in detail. Unfortunately, the big reptile only wandered around the border for a while before returning.

Not long after, the picture in front of him became blurry again, and Jiraiya suddenly felt that he was falling suddenly, falling into the mental transfer space that was previously covered by a fire screen.

Jiraiya, who knew he could not see more specific information, was originally eager to ask Daimaru more questions, but after calming down, he calmed down a little and recalled what he had just seen.

Among Pain's six paths of ninjutsu, the most feared one is the astonishingly powerful Tendo. The ability to manipulate force fields is too troublesome, and even the tailed beasts and jinchūriki who attack with all their strength are helpless.

In addition, the secret technique of the Hungry Ghost Path and the sealing seal that absorbs ninjutsu and chakra are also difficult to deal with.

The others are not weak in combat ability, but their effectiveness in a one-on-one duel between powerful dialogue masters is obviously inferior.

After pondering for a long time, Jiraiya felt that he was not sure of victory. He took stock of the forces that could be used, and found out helplessly that the power of the Samsara Eye was too comprehensive. Even the human sea tactic might not be effective. It will be obvious.

Only when it is powerful enough and has equal strength can it be suppressed.

Toad Sage, who didn't find a proper countermeasure, finally formed a seal to control the chakra in his body and dispelled the illusion. He saw Daimaru lazily drinking tea on the small table. Hot tea was also prepared for him in front of the opposite seat.

"He's really a guy who enjoys himself..."

Although Daimaru's background is not at the lowest level, his family situation is almost the same as that of other poor families. His father died young, his grandfather is strong but has little ability and knowledge, and his mother is hardworking but has little energy to discipline her son. These two people join forces to Being able to raise a child like Daimaru is really surprising.

It is just a symptom that a phoenix cannot fly from a chicken coop, and it is difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son. The resulting gap in environmental influence and education is the key to dividing the next generation into two different classes and passing them on from generation to generation.

The carefreeness and grace of a superior person in Daimaru, who has cultivated his body and qi, cannot be cultivated by a nouveau riche in a year or two.

Smiling and shrugging, Daimaru said calmly:

"I'm only in my early eighteen years. If nothing unexpected happens in the future, I will have fifty or sixty years of enjoyment at least. If I don't do something I like and treat myself well, how will I live such a long time?"

"You are reminding me in disguise that I am no longer young..."

Jiraiya casually sat down across from him and drank the slightly cold tea with a smile.

"I kept you waiting for a long time, thinking about something, and wasting some time..."

"Yeah! It doesn't matter..."

Daimaru, who was no longer acting as Kazekage's agent, didn't have to be ready to deal with sudden emergencies at any time, nor did he have to worry about doing something private, whether there were followers and shadow guards peeping outside the door.

The commander of the air combat force, the actual controller of Naruto Village and Awaji Village, in terms of power and influence, is actually not much lower than Gaara, the Fifth Kazekage, but it is different in the wild. He is not the focus of people's attention. It also made people feel a lot more relaxed, and naturally there weren’t that many things that had to be dealt with.

"So, did you gain anything, senior?"

"Although it's a bit rude, I still want to ask, can you let me see the puppet you captured? If it involves your sand ninja's sensitive puppet technology..."

What Jiraiya saw and heard in the illusion was eighty-nine percent sure that it was all real and not an illusion caused by Daimaru's manipulation of the illusion.

But what if?

It is more convincing to have real objects.

Daimaru thought for a moment and agreed:

"Can……"

As Daimaru spoke, he gently plucked the invisible thread in his hand, and a Pain Shurado puppet with faint traces of the Rinnegan Eyes still remaining in his eyes appeared next to Jiraiya.

Jiraiya recognized this puppet at a glance as it fired amazingly powerful laser beams and rockets when fighting Ōnoki and Daimaru.

"This image..."

Jiraiya stood up, groped his chin, walked around the Shura Path several times, and reached out to tap his head and shoulders.

"It doesn't look like a puppet made of wood and metal, it looks like it was made from a corpse..."

Facing Jiraiya's probing gaze, Daimaru answered readily:

"After catching it, I slightly changed the structure of the mechanism, but the general framework remains unchanged. In addition, this is not a product of the forbidden art that we sand ninjas are good at - human puppets."

Of course, they still feel a bit similar. They are both made of human bodies and can accommodate the blood successor's limited ability. The difference is that the human puppet technique requires the ninja to be made while he is alive, while Pain's six paths use a completely dead one. corpse.

When did Nagato start making Pain's Six Paths?
