Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

However, those people did not consider Jiraiya to be their master; they only regarded him as someone with decent strength but a mental problem.

After a while, I completely forgot about him.

The prophesied child has yet to appear, but Jiraiya is not particularly anxious.

He felt that, given the current state of the ninja world, whether or not the so-called Child of Prophecy appeared was not particularly important.

Jiraiya believed that even if a prophetic child did appear, it was unlikely that the wind-taking child would do a better job.

Today, the major powers of the entire ninja world are like one family, not only submitting to the strength of the Hokage.

It is also because Naruto used various methods to connect everyone into a whole.

If anyone tries to break away from this group, their country will soon fall behind.

Therefore, no one wants to, nor is willing to, leave this group.

After all, who wouldn't like a life where they don't have to fight and kill, and can still live a wealthy life?

Wars are only for the purpose of striving for a better life. Now that life is already very good, war has naturally become unnecessary.

While wars between nations may have ceased, other factors contributing to war persist, such as the war that occurred five years ago.

Both the recent rebellion in Rain Province and other events serve as a reminder to villages and nations that the world is not entirely at peace, and that true peace requires sufficient strength.

Furthermore, a very strong relationship has been formed between the various major ninja villages through the practice of wind extraction. If any village in the relationship encounters difficulties, the other villages will provide assistance immediately.

If they encounter an external enemy, they will unite in their hatred of the enemy.

That's the current situation. In the war five years ago, the Kaze and Tochi kingdoms only sought help out of respect for the Hokage's strength.

Now, they are truly standing by each other's side, fighting side by side, and can be considered trustworthy allies.

Although these allies are based on mutual interests, as long as the pinnacle of these interests remains intact, the alliance will continue indefinitely.

Therefore, this alliance is actually reliable for the ninja world.

However, it also requires someone with absolute power to maintain it, otherwise, major chaos will ensue.

When Hashirama, the original world leader, managed Konoha, the methods he used were not significantly different from those used today. He relied on absolute power to intimidate other countries.

In order to ensure peace and prevent other countries from waging war, they offered tailed beasts and money.

This did maintain peace for a period of time, but after his absolute power died, Tobirama's strength was no longer enough to deter other countries.

War broke out again, and because of the things that had been sent out before, other countries knew that Konoha Village was very wealthy and that the geographical environment of the Land of Fire was very suitable for survival.

This led to the Land of Fire being coveted and even besieged by other countries.

But now it's different with Qu Feng. Qu Feng possesses the Fruit of Life, so theoretically he can live indefinitely.

It could even allow the strongest members of Konoha Village to live together, until the end of time.

In this way, Konoha's absolute strength will never disappear, and the alliance can be maintained forever.

Of course, these are all far-fetched ideas. Qu Feng didn't think that far ahead at all. He just wanted the world to be peaceful and for himself and his family to live a peaceful life.

Just like now, everyone sits together chatting, watching TV, and waiting for the hostess to come back from grocery shopping and cook.

Life is still quite pleasant.

"I'm back, please help me get in, I bought too much stuff."

When Chiri pushed open the door, everyone froze in place, because she used Susanoo's bone claws to open the door.

With both hands full of groceries, there was no free hand at all.

"Alright, alright, I've shown you how to make the most of your talents," Qu Feng said with a laugh.

Upon hearing this, Zhili simply stuck out her tongue: "Don't worry about the details. Isn't this more convenient? It doesn't consume much chakra."

Toru shook his head helplessly. The chakra consumed by Susanoo was indeed not much for Chiri, and it had only been used for such a short time.

Let her be happy, anyway, there's no need to worry about eye strain.

You can always find something unexpected in the system store.

Everyone helped carry the two bags of groceries into the house, and then we started tidying them up one by one.

"Wow, sister-in-law, you bought so much stuff? Are you going to eat it all in one meal?"

Minato exclaimed in surprise, "Just cooking all of these things would probably take half a day."

Zhili smiled and waved her hand: "How could that be? I'm going to stay here for a few more days. I don't like the food here. I prefer what I cook myself."

I quite like the environment of the city center, and the scenery in Rain Province is also quite beautiful.

So Zhili simply treated this mission as a vacation, coming to Rain Province to enjoy the scenery, relax, and practice his skills.

After explaining, Zhili began to organize the ingredients for dinner and handed them over to Qufeng and the others to process quickly.

Meanwhile, Chiri began preparations.

The apartment quickly became bustling with activity. Tsunade, seeing that Jiri had a lot of work to do that night, helped out as well.

Qu Feng helped out from the side, while the children started playing games in the living room.

I was a little nervous today, so it's understandable to relax for a while.

"By the way, speaking of which, do we not have any missions tomorrow?"

"Huh?" Xiao Nan asked, somewhat puzzled.

Yahiko explained, "Aren't the other two countries' Kage going out to fight tomorrow? Now the Rain Province under the jurisdiction of the Land of Fire is almost completely wiped out, leaving only those two countries."

At this point, Xiao Nan understood.

Chapter 710 Jealousy

The apartment quickly became bustling with activity. Tsunade, seeing that Jiri had a lot of work to do that night, helped out as well.

Qu Feng helped out from the side, while the children started playing games in the living room.

I was a little nervous today, so it's understandable to relax for a while.

"By the way, speaking of which, do we not have any missions tomorrow?"

"Huh?" Xiao Nan asked, somewhat puzzled.

Yahiko explained, "Aren't the other two countries' Kage going out to fight tomorrow? Now the Rain Province under the jurisdiction of the Land of Fire is almost completely wiped out, leaving only those two countries."

At this point, Xiao Nan understood.

"That seems to be the case. We can only help them after they kill Kageto."

That way, I can take another day off tomorrow.

Today, the Kage-level ninjas of Konoha Village had just cleaned up the battlefield when the ninjas in the central city mobilized in full force and swept through the entire Rain Province of the Land of Fire.

The ninjas from the three countries acted together, so their speed was extremely fast, like a locust swarm sweeping across the land, leaving nothing but desolation.

Jiraiya overheard the children's discussion and said, "It's probably just what Yahiko said. We can take a day off."

"In fact, we really should rest. We've done almost twice the work of the other teams!"

Jiraiya was clearly tired of running around, and now that he had a vacation, he definitely didn't want to go out.

But he still had to follow the organization's arrangements, so he would occasionally glance at Qu Feng, who was helping out.

Jiraiya must have heard what Toriyama said, but he didn't say anything, which means he tacitly agreed with what Toriyama said.

Jiraiya was also very happy.

Minato and Konan don't really care about resting; they can accept being on missions all the time.

Since we have time to rest, it would be even better.

So after discussion among the team, they decided to rest tomorrow. Even if the shadows from the other two villages acted quickly and killed the enemy in just one morning, their team would not go.

Holidays make people happy, and Jiraiya was noticeably happier after it was confirmed that tomorrow would be a holiday.

He always had a smile on his face.

About ten minutes later, the first dish was put into the pot.

Immediately afterwards, Tsunade started preparing the second dish.

All the preparations were done by Qu Feng, so Zhi Li and the others just needed to put everything into the pot.

In no time, the aroma of the dishes filled the entire apartment.

"Ah, I must say, my sister-in-law's cooking is really good. Just the smell makes my mouth water."

Jiraiya smiled without any sense of self-importance; he was only in his early twenties and still very young.

His smile is very sunny, and he has a unique kind of handsomeness that young men possess.

However, since both women present had their own husbands, no matter how handsome his smile was, no one would pay attention to him.

"If it smells good, eat more later. You often travel outside and rarely get to eat the food from the village. This time you should eat your fill so you don't get homesick again."

"okay!"

Jiraiya happily agreed.

Time passed slowly, and the flavor of the stew in the pot became increasingly rich and fragrant.

Zhili opened the lid, and a fragrant aroma wafted out: "Hmm, it's ready. We can eat as soon as the sweet and sour fish sauce is done."

Then Chiri looked at Tsunade: "How's it going, Tsunade? Is the fish fried?"

Tsunade gave a thumbs up: "It's all healed, Jiri-nee. We've been waiting for you."

Upon hearing this, Zhili quickly prepared various seasonings, poured them into a pot and cooked them briefly, then poured them over the fried fish.

And so, all the dishes for tonight's dinner are ready.

The children helped bring all the dishes to the table, and then Qu Feng started by saying a few words of blessing before everyone began to eat.

There were ten dishes in total, all of which were delicious and visually appealing, thanks to the help of everyone who contributed in some way.

So it tastes especially delicious; after all, it deserves a bit more because it's partly its own contribution.

The room was filled with a joyful atmosphere, and laughter echoed throughout the apartment.

While some rejoiced, others grieved. Compared to the bustling activity in the central city, the search for wind in Konoha Village was quite miserable.
