Chapter 237 All parties gather together

Not mentioning the feeling of depression due to unsatisfied curiosity, Menma left here with a look of joy on his face. He was not simply happy because he had obtained Nanao Chakra, but Because the moment Nanao chakra entered his body, Menma actually felt that the cytokines in his body seemed to be a little more active.

Of course, this could also be an illusion.

But what if it was real and effective! ?

That proved that Menma's previous idea was effective.

‘I hope there will be more opportunities for verification! ’

Menma looked towards the more distant southern country, with a fiery color in his pupils.

"Whoosh"

With a vertical movement of his body, he also headed towards the agreed-upon target position at extremely high speed.

And that was when Menma set off from Takigakure Village and headed southeast.

At the junction of the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Sichuan.

"Drink, Rasengan!"

"Peng!"

It is located in a stream that is not very wide.

A golden figure with his upper body exposed, the figure leaping up, and a blue sphere appearing from the palm of his hand.

There was a deep shout, followed by a sudden pressure from the downward angle.

"Boom!"

A terrifying deep pit was directly blasted out of the ground.

But look at this deep pit.

There was still a look of dissatisfaction on the face of the blond boy.

"Chakra control needs to be more stable, so that you can further increase the output of chakra, Naruto!"

On the other side, a white-haired man stepped closer, threw the kettle in his hand, and spoke softly with a gentle tone.

"Yes, Grandpa Jiraiya, I understand!"

The blond boy took the kettle and drank nearly half of it in a big gulp. After taking a deep breath, he raised his head and said loudly.

These two people were the same duo of Jiraiya and Naruto who left the Hidden Leaf Village a few months ago to travel around other countries.

Since the battle at the Valley of the End, Naruto, who returned to Konoha, has fallen directly into a situation of almost despair and collapse.

Unlike in the original work, only Sasuke defected.

In this life, there were two brothers who he valued extremely much, and one of them was his real brother - Uzumaki Menma. This double blow caused Naruto's heart to suffer the greatest shake, and it ended. During the battle in the valley, the murderous intention displayed by Menma Soka made Naruto's heart collapse.

He couldn't believe that Menma actually wanted to kill him.

When facing such a reality.

It would be strange if Naruto, who was only 12 years old, could still accept it calmly.

Therefore, during the few days he returned to the village, Naruto was confused until Jiraiya, who had just completed external reconnaissance and security missions, returned to the village. After a face-to-face talk with Naruto, Naruto was Got back on my feet.

After all, it's still the same Naruto.

Even though his surname is Namikaze in this life, there is still no fundamental change. This is why Menma believes that Naruto is still the reincarnation of Asura's chakra, not him.

Only a character like Naruto could match Asura's chakra.

It was also based on Jiraiya's heart-to-heart talk.

The two of them also embarked on a traveling journey to become stronger and collect intelligence just like in the original work. In Jiraiya's words, people can still understand each other. Jiraiya believes that Naruto can definitely make Menma and Sasuke have changed their minds, as long as he can continue to become stronger and have the power to bring them back.

Naruto also believed in this, so around the time Menma joined Takigakure, Naruto followed Jiraiya and left Konoha Hidden Village.

Now, it has been several months since they left the village. During this period, the Kingdom of Fire is almost full of traces of them. Now it is also time to do intensive training in Rasengan at the border location.

On the other hand, I am also thinking about how to choose the next path.

"Haha, let's take a rest first. Cultivation is not a hard work that can be accomplished overnight. You must take a proper rest. Otherwise, you will get twice the result with half the effort."

Jiraiya pointed to the almost-cooked fish and shrimp and steamed rice on the side, and said with a chuckle.

"Yes, Grandpa Jiraiya!"

A voracious eating style.

On the attributes of the Big Stomach King.

Naruto is truly a top three level existence in Konoha Hidden Village.

Jiraiya, who was sitting next to him, was sipping a drink and looking at Naruto with a kind look. Jiraiya, who was not married and had no descendants, really regarded Naruto as his own grandson. After all, He is Minato's son.

Of course, the same goes for Menma.

Thinking of Menma who had defected.

Jiraiya's pupils also flashed with a hint of sadness.

Although it's not the first time.

But every time he thought about it, Jiraiya regretted his decision. He shouldn't have left the Ninja Village. He shouldn't have trusted his teacher too much. He should have stayed in the village and personally taken care of Menma and He. Naruto.

Let's not let the two brothers live separately. In that case, how could they have reached this point! ?

Who knows, now is the scene where the two brothers work together to revive Konoha.

How could they kill each other! ?

Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, Jiraiya couldn't help but twitch in his heart when he learned from Kakashi and others that Menma would kill Naruto.

They are brothers!

If it really happens, who will kill who.

How can he face Minato and Kushina at that time?

'It's all my fault. . . . '

Jiraiya sighed in his heart and thought quietly.

He has never regretted so much as in this period of time.

"Eh? Grandpa Jiraiya, why don't you eat? Eat quickly, didn't you say that you would teach me the training of physical skills later?"

After eating, Naruto burped with satisfaction, looked at Jiraiya who still hadn't touched much food, and asked with a hint of doubt.

"Haha, let's have a few drinks first, no hurry, no hurry."

After Naruto's sight turned, Jiraiya also quickly adjusted his mentality and said with a laugh.

"Oh, you should drink less, Grandpa Jiraiya, drinking is harmful to your health!"

"Haha, you kid are going to care about your Grandpa Jiraiya now?"

"That's also caring about you!"

"Yes, yes!"

Jiraiya shook his head with a smile.

"Chiu!"

And it was at this moment.

A rather harsh eagle cry suddenly came from the sky. Jiraiya was startled and looked up. A majestic falcon came into Jiraiya's eyes.

This one can be recognized as the 'Ninja Eagle' that belongs to the Hidden Leaf Village.

Jiraiya's eyes condensed, and with a wave of his right hand.

"Swoosh!"

The falcon also directly locked Jiraiya's position and swooped down rapidly from a high altitude.

It came directly to the side of Jiraiya and landed on Jiraiya's shoulder very steadily.

Jiraiya also took a small piece of paper from the position above the claws of the falcon with ease, and then waved his right hand gently.

The falcon flew away again.

Jiraiya opened the piece of paper and saw the content marked with special symbols inside, and gradually translated it.

Jiraiya's expression tightened.

"Eh? What's wrong? Grandpa Jiraiya, is it Tsunade who sent some important information? Is it related to Orochimaru!?"

Naruto in the opposite position also noticed the change in Jiraiya's expression at the first time, and he immediately stood up and walked directly in front of Jiraiya, looking at Jiraiya with a very concerned look and asked.

"Well, it can be considered as such."

Jiraiya nodded slowly and said.

The message sent by Tsunade with the ninja eagle did contain some information from Orochimaru, but more of it was focused on another key issue - the traces of the six-tailed Jinchuriki Yugao.

There is no impenetrable wall in this world.

Yugao's defection.

For ordinary ninjas, small ninja villages are top secrets that cannot be obtained, but in other large ninja villages, they can get some relevant dynamic information. Orochimaru started from the Hidden Mist Village and reversely investigated the traces of the six-tailed Jinchuriki. As the Hidden Leaf Village, which is also keeping a close eye on Orochimaru's movements, it can also detect some clues.

The Konoha side led by Tsunade certainly didn't know that the reason why Orochimaru did this was still due to Menma's request. In Tsunade's view, this was Orochimaru's own personal choice. A guy who was already very dangerous now has his eyes on the tailed beast.

In addition, Menma has already joined Orochimaru.

Tsunade must consider whether this is Orochimaru's next plan.

Orochimaru is already very dangerous.

Tsunade did not allow such danger to expand further.

For this reason, Tsunade not only urgently dispatched a most elite Anbu team from the village, but also passed the information to Jiraiya.

I hope Jiraiya can also go there. Tsunade has no desire for the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, but she definitely does not want to see the Six-Tails fall into Orochimaru's hands.

"What is that news!?"

When Naruto heard that it was really related to Orochimaru, his eyes suddenly widened, and he asked in a very urgent tone.

Why pay attention to Orochimaru! ?

It's because of Menma and Sasuke.

To this day, after experiencing the battle in the Valley of the End, although Naruto is no longer as naive as before and thinks that everything is Orochimaru's fault, from the bottom of his heart, he still feels that if there is no Orochimaru, Menma and Sasuke will never go to the point of defection.

Therefore, in Naruto's heart, if he were to make a list of the people he hated the most and wanted to kill the most, Orochimaru would definitely be at the top of the list, and he was the only one at the moment.

Now that he finally heard news related to Orochimaru, Naruto was naturally very concerned.

"Orochimaru has sent people to a small country in the south called 'Spring' to search for a very important person."

Jiraiya temporarily concealed part of the content and explained to Naruto in a concise manner.

"Spring Country? Then let's go there right now, Grandpa Jiraiya!"

Naruto first murmured in a low voice, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Jiraiya with a very determined look, and said in a deep voice.

Although he had already decided to take Naruto to investigate.

But seeing Naruto was still so excited.

Jiraiya couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Of course you have to go, but, Naruto, I have to say something in advance. You can't act on your own. You must stay by my side at all times and follow my instructions throughout the process. Do you understand?"

Jiraiya lowered his head slightly, looking at Naruto with a very serious and solemn expression, and the words he said in a deep voice.

It also clearly showed Jiraiya's attitude.

"Yes, don't worry, Grandpa Jiraiya, I will definitely not mess around!"

When Naruto heard Jiraiya's words, he first showed a look of great joy, and then nodded like a chicken sucking rice and replied.

"That's good. Remember what you said, Naruto!"

Listening to Naruto's answer.

Jiraiya's face showed a faint smile.

"Yes!"

After that.

After a simple packing, the two of them jumped up and headed southeast at a high speed.

At the same time.

In the most prosperous area in the center of the Land of Fire, the area where the Hidden Leaf Village is located, in the darkest underground secret room.

"Is the information confirmed!?"

Shimura Danzo stood on the main seat with a gloomy face, looking at a root person who came to report the information, and asked coldly.

"Yes, Master Danzo, the target is in the Land of Spring!"

A root person who seemed to be wrapped in darkness replied in a deep voice.

"Mist Ninja, Six-Tails, this is really a good opportunity!"

Danzo's single exposed pupil also revealed a trace of greed. As the Dark of Konoha who has always been determined to become Hokage, he wants to obtain the most power, and Sharingan and Wood Release are naturally needless to say.

The power of the tailed beasts has also always been one of Danzo's goals.

In his opinion.

Only he is qualified to control these powers in this world, and only he can use and lead these powers correctly.

The defection of the Six-Tails Jinchūriki, isn't this a God-given opportunity for him! ?

Just because of the special movements of the Cloud Ninja some time ago, plus the help of the two elders Mitomon En and Utatane Koharu, and Danzo's status is indeed here, Tsunade was finally forced to cancel the restriction order on the Root.

Danzo can freely control the people of the Root under his command again.

Although Tsunade has obviously strengthened the monitoring of the Root than before, Danzo doesn't care at all. There are only a few truly elite teams in the Anbu directly under the Hokage, and Danzo really doesn't believe that Tsunade will send all these people to supervise the Root.

If she really does that.

Danzo will be happy instead.

Because he can impeach Tsunade openly!

If she doesn't do that, how can the remaining people really restrict the Root! ? At most, they will know that his Root is taking action.
