Red sand dust

A few days later, the contact report Jiraiya sent to Daimaru through the village had been received.

At this juncture, Uncle "Red Sand Dust" no longer wants to pay attention to too many irrelevant things.

But Jiraiya, a senior, had a good personal relationship with Daimaru and had helped him a little, so he still had to give him some face.

After agreeing on a time, in a small town called Tanshu Street in the east of Konoha Village, Daimaru met Toad Sage, who had been waiting for a long time.

Yes, it was the place where Uzumaki Naruto and Tsunade first met, where the three ninjas reunited again after more than ten years, and where Jiraiya taught the child of destiny the Muji Ninjutsu - the Rasengan.

"At this time of year, it's really a first for us to meet at a hot spring!"

As he spoke, Daimaru glanced at Jiraiya, who was already a little drunk, and half-lyed down on the edge of the pool not far away, letting the warm hot springs submerge up to his neck.

"Finally, do you want a few drinks?"

Jiraiya gave a gentle push, and the wine bottle and cup on the floating board floated over, but Daimaru politely refused.

"I'm not used to drinking this kind of rice sake. I brought my own plum wine. Would you like to try it, senior?"

"That's not bad..."

The cheerful Jiraiya was not polite and had already started to drink. After a few drinks and his whole body was warm, he would not refuse.

The bamboo forest beside the hot spring rustled with the night wind, and a few yellow maple leaves drifted down with the wind and landed on the hot spring water.

"The air is crisp in autumn, the hot springs are under the moon, and the green plums are brewing for wine. It is truly the ultimate happiness on earth!"

He has lived a carefree life for decades and has traveled to most of the ninja world. In terms of how to play, Daimaru really can't compare to him.

If Daimaru hadn't sternly refused, this old-hearted guy would have planned to invite a few geishas to come over and enjoy the performance while not knowing how to settle the bill, whether to use public funds or pay for it himself.

After the two of them exchanged some gossip, Jiraiya opened his slightly red eyes and got to the point and said:

"Did you do something the past few days? The Great Toad Immortal of Miaomu Mountain asked me to bring you a message. If you have time, go to Miaomu Mountain..."

"oh!"

Although it was a bit sudden, it was within the scope of Daimaru's expectations, so he wasn't too surprised.

"Is this your reaction?"

Jiraiya smacked his lips and asked, pretending to be angry,

"I'm so sincere in hospitality, and you're so perfunctory with me? At least you can reveal some information so that I can go back and recover!"

"Senior, your mission has been completed..."

"Where's the answer?"

Daimaru shook his head:

"I won't go, at least I don't have the time now! The Great Toad Immortal actually didn't want me to nag you. As long as you bring this sentence to me, I will know what it means!"

"So magical?"

Jiraiya's expression changed.

"That's why I hate this kind of task of delivering messages. I'm so chatty that I don't know what the hell I'm doing..."

"It's nothing special. I'm just telling me that they already know what happened a while ago, and I'm welcome to 'play' with them happily in the future. It's just that the days are long, and it's not time for direct contact yet..."

He had a deal with the White Snake Immortal of Ryūchi Cave because of Yakushi Kabuto's matter, which was already the limit.

"Is it about immortal mode?"

Although Jiraiya doesn't have much information and is careless, it doesn't mean that he doesn't have a good brain.

"My seniors at Miaomu Mountain had an offer to contact you before, but they missed it due to an accident!"

"Almost! The addition of Sand Ninja, a stable immortal magic inheritance, to the ninja world is indeed worthy of attention. More importantly, the existence of the 'Holy Land' itself..."

To put it nicely, the Holy Land of Psychic Beasts is the lord of all the territories. To put it harshly, it is a parasite that enriches itself.

The situation of those toads, slugs and big snakes is not as good as that of Daimaru. At least the leader of the lunar base is a human, the source of power is also a sand ninja, and the one who maintains the operation is a "psychic puppet" who upholds Daimaru's will.

Even if those aliens really threaten the safety of the entire ninja world and take countermeasures, Daimaru is not afraid, because he really has the ability to threaten the peace of the ninja world.

At worst, it will fall apart, and no one will be too late. In the end, humans will definitely be more likely to win.

Going against the primates of all things in this era will basically not end well.

"Holy land? I probably figured it out. It turns out there are more 'same kind', so I want to say hello!"

"That's it!"

Daimaru confirmed Jiraiya's judgment,

"Perhaps we will have a chance to cooperate soon. The Fourth Ninja War will not be easy!"

At this point, Daimaru just didn't remind him. With Jiraiya's eyes, he still couldn't see through the vague and manipulative hand hidden behind the ninja world?

Do you really think that the Akatsuki organization that killed Nagato will be that easy to deal with?

Obito Uchiha and Sasuke Uchiha killed the 6th Hokage Danzo Shimura in a small trial of their skills. Is there anyone in the ninja world who is sure to survive this catastrophe unharmed?

Once the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki is really out of control, will he be able to find out the guys hiding in the "Holy Land" one by one when he is resurrected?

Slugs can be used as medicinal materials, and cooking is just so-so; frogs are delicious after being cooked; snake soup is a great tonic and very delicious.

Accepting Daimaru's words, Jiraiya took advantage of the drunkenness and shook his head and said:

"Your Sunagakure Village has been really powerful recently. Even the Great Toad Immortal of Miaomu Mountain has begun to actively show kindness..."

In this dangerous and turbulent ninja world, there are friends everywhere. It doesn't necessarily mean that you are good at dancing. It is more likely that few people dare to be your enemy.

"Actually, after you built a lot of construction in the Kingdom of Wind and turned most of the desert into fertile soil, I knew that the Sand Ninja was about to rise! Because even our Konoha Village couldn't do such a feat in a different place. And you did it, and you did a great job!”

Perhaps the first generation of Hokage, Senju Hashirama, who was at his peak, joined forces with Uchiha Madara and led the Konoha ninjas to have the power to change the world, but it is far from that now.

"You're exaggerating!"

Daimaru, who pretended to be humble, couldn't help but think of the Six Paths Sage's assessment of his two sons, Asura and Indra, nearly a thousand years ago, which was to eliminate hidden dangers that threatened human survival.

For example, destroying harmful beasts, building mountains and cities, drinking water to irrigate the fields, and making the entire ninja world smooth.

At that time, the natural environment of the ninja world was definitely much worse than it is now. Deserts like the desert of the Land of Wind were everywhere. Because of the efforts of Asura and Indra, the current structure of the ninja world was created. Even if The methods are different, but the results are still the same.

The history of the development of civilization is actually the history of struggle to expand living space.

"Looking at it this way, Asura and Indra, who inherited the bloodline ability of the Six Paths Sage, may be stronger than I thought. They don't have the giant reincarnation eye to provide force field support, nor are they that big. The moon provides materials to repair the craters on the surface. 』

Jiraiya and Daimaru both had their own concerns and chatted incessantly.

"Naruto, we have already set off for the Kingdom of Thunder..."

"The True Waterfall Trial on Turtle Island?"

"You also know this? It seems that the so-called secret is really not worth mentioning!"

Jiraiya's emotion made Daimaru smile unconsciously:

"Actually, that's all! The success rate of the Jinchuuriki in Kumogakure Village is so high. It's relatively easy to achieve a perfect Jinchuuriki. There must be a secret method. As long as you conduct targeted investigations, it's not difficult to draw conclusions!"

That being said, it seems easy, but is it really that easy?

Not to mention anything else, how did the news that Kirabi and Yukito of Hidden Cloud Village were perfect jinchūriki leak out?

Even the existence of the Giant Turtle Island is a secret in Yunyin Village. The locals can't find it even if they try to find it, let alone the name of "True Waterfall".

"fine!"

Jiraiya didn't take Daimaru's perfunctory approach seriously and changed the subject and said,

"Speaking of Jinchuuriki, the last tailed beast in your Sunagakure Village was snatched away by the Akatsuki organization. According to the decision of the last Five Kage Conference, the Sunagakure suffered a big loss. Even the Taki Ninja Village was saved. Got Nanao.”

"It's just a temporary gain or loss, and it won't affect our policy! As long as the Akatsuki organization is destroyed, Ichibi Shukaku can take it back. It's not a big problem!"

If everything goes well, this is the result. If not, the ninja world will be destroyed, and there is no point in worrying about the ownership of one or two tailed beasts.

"You are really thoughtful!"

The Sand Hidden Village was carried forward by two young men under the age of twenty, and the progress became smoother and smoother. It was really surprising.

After so many years in the ninja world, the youngest "kage" is the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, who became a powerful figure in the ninja world in his early twenties. The seemingly young, baby-faced Mizukage Yondaime, Yagura, only looked younger, but was actually close to fifty years old, and even had grandchildren when he died.

Now, Sand Ninja has greatly advanced this record.

Gaara officially came to power, not yet fifteen years old, and Daimaru acted as Kazekage, only nineteen years old.

It’s hard to say whether this record will be broken in the future, but he is really a young hero now.

Even the confident Konohagakure did not dare to place its hopes on "children" who were too young. Even the original Namikaze Minato, if not for the support of the third generation of Hokage and Sarutobi Hiruzen, Jiraiya was equally optimistic. It’s really hard to overpower Orochimaru.

To say that I am envious, it is not enough. Uzumaki Naruto alone in Konoha Village is enough to offset all the disadvantages. Coupled with the group of amazingly talented young girls among the ninjas of the same age, Jiraiya is very optimistic about the future. Be confident.

In this summer's Joint Chuunin Examination, Sunagakure Village, which had performed almost equally with Konoha Village for three consecutive years, also fell into decline, and Konoha's deep ninja heritage came into play again.

The temporary competition may be at a disadvantage, but in the "endurance race" of the competition for survival, Konoha ninjas have almost no opponents in the current ninja world.

…

In the frozen forest in the northern border of the Kingdom of Thunder, Kisame Kisame, who carried the sword Samehada on his shoulder, looked at the Fourth Raikage Ai in front of him with an embarrassed expression, and glanced at the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki who were surrounding him from behind. Kirabi.

"It was a mistake. I originally planned to attack the Jinchuuriki by surprise, but I didn't expect that I was ambushed instead."

"The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure Village, you must be Kisame Kisaki, the guy who defected after killing his boss, Suikoyama Fugu Oni, and taking away the sword, Samehada!"

Looking at the conspicuous weapon in the opponent's hand, Raikage understood the identity of the opponent.

According to the information shared by Konoha Village, this was the partner of the dead rebel ninja Uchiha Itachi. He once sneaked into Konoha Village to cause trouble and also appeared when he attacked Sunagakure Village.

Kisame Kisaki must be very strong, but with the Raikage in front of him and the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki surrounding him, it would be almost impossible to escape.

"Sure enough, I shouldn't underestimate you! The successful attack in the past made me careless!"

The Kisame Kisame, who showed no flaws at all, inserted the big sword Samehada into the ground, quickly formed a seal, the chakra surged throughout his body, opened his big mouth, and spit out a huge amount of water.

"Water Release: Big Explosive Water Wave!"

The powerful water release ninjutsu that can almost change the terrain has shown amazing power in the hands of Kisame Ingakaki, known as the "tailless tail beast".

Just when the Fourth Raikage, Ai, and the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki, Kirabi, were teaming up to fight Kisame Kisaki, on a hill several hundred meters away, the petite "artificial elf" Kaki was watching the development of the situation.

"Father is right, even if Inikaki Kisame has the cooperation of Bai Zetsu, he is still far from the opponent of 'AB Combination'!"

Since there is no chance of winning, there must be something fishy about rushing here to die.

Ninjas who can reach this level will not be far behind in intelligence. If there is something they don't understand, they must be either traitors or thieves.

Sure enough, under the cross attack of thunder escape and nintaijutsu, Inogaki Kisame tried his best, but was still killed.

After the death of the master, the large sword and Samehada left behind naturally became the trophies of the "AB Combination" and became the weapon of the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki Kirabi.

"Something seems wrong!"

It was only a matter of time before Inikaki Kisame lost against the "AB Combination", but his defeat was too simple.

Recalling every detail of the battle scene just now, Jin suddenly reacted.

"That weapon, the Great Sword Samehada, is alive. Is this their purpose?"

Kisame Inigaki himself is probably fine, and the person killed by the "AB Combination" is probably just a stand-in disguised as White Zetsu using secret techniques and barter transformations.

If that's the case, something makes sense.

"You have to tell your father quickly!"

As he spoke, Jin disappeared and prepared to return to Sand Hidden Village. In the sky, a crescent moon, obscured by the sun and not obvious, was also hidden behind the late autumn clouds.

When Daimaru learned the news from Jin who was proudly showing off his merits, he was also thoughtful.

Many situations in the "Akatsuki" organization are completely different from those in memory. Some details will still continue to happen. Without changing the general trend, relying on the development of people's hearts and current events, there are still rules to follow.

"That knife is good. Its ability to absorb chakra and transport it over medium and long distances is very useful. Find an opportunity to grab it! If that doesn't work, sell it to Kirigakure Village. Terumi Meditation will be happy to recycle it at a high price..."
