Little Goku's Great Adventure Starting from One Piece

Chapter 384 Karin: Why doesn't that guy have chakra?

Inside the leaf.

After finishing his morning training, Goku, along with Might Guy, Rock Lee, and Jiraiya, who had arrived at some unknown time, entered a restaurant to have lunch there.

"Hearing you say that, Life Return is a powerful ability that combines the Yin Seal and the Hundred Healings Regeneration Technique." Jiraiya exclaimed after hearing Goku teach Might Guy and Rock Lee about Life Return and understanding its effects.

"Yin Seal? Hundred Healings Regeneration Technique? What is this?" Wukong asked curiously.

"Those are two S-rank ninjutsu developed by Tsunade. Yin Seal can accumulate chakra and then release it during battle, greatly increasing strength and endurance. Hundred Healings Regeneration Technique can rapidly heal the body the moment it is injured, and it is a continuous healing process, keeping the body's functions at their peak. Don't you think that combining these two abilities is very similar to your Life Return?" Jiraiya chuckled.

"It does look quite similar." Wukong nodded in sudden realization.

Meanwhile, outside Konoha.

Sasuke and his group of four suddenly leaped out of the forest and arrived at the gates of Konoha in the blink of an eye.

"Who goes there?!"

...

The relaxed bodies of Izumo and Kotetsu, who were guarding the entrance to Konoha, suddenly tensed up, and their lazy gazes became incredibly sharp as they stared intently at the four uninvited guests who were clearly different from ordinary people.

However-

When their gazes met those bloodshot eyes, their eyes instantly became unfocused, and their soaring, fierce aura vanished abruptly.

"Walk."

After hypnotizing the two gatekeepers with genjutsu, Sasuke rushed straight into Konoha without pausing.

Suigetsu, Karin, and Jugo followed closely behind, and soon disappeared with Sasuke at the entrance of Konoha.

After a while, Kanzuki Izumo and Kotetsu almost simultaneously shuddered, their unfocused pupils suddenly focused, and fine beads of cold sweat appeared on their foreheads.

"Wow, what a terrifying illusion!" Gangzi Tiexin said in a hoarse voice, still shaken.

Izumo Kamitsuki, oblivious to the fact that he had just been hit, quickly scanned his surroundings and then his expression changed: "Oh no!"

They must have already gone in. If I wasn't mistaken, the one who put us in this genjutsu was Uchiha Sasuke! He brought three unidentified people into the village! We must report this to Lord Jiraiya immediately!

In the alleys of Konoha, led by Sasuke, Team Taka sped forward, turning left and right, towards the Hokage...

The building's location is getting closer.

"That was exciting! We actually made it in like this. I wonder if those two guys are awake yet." Shuiyue grinned, revealing a hint of excitement on her face, her previous timidity completely gone.

"Hmph! With Sasuke on the case, entering any ninja village is a piece of cake! Even if that ninja village is Konoha, it's the same!" Karin proudly raised her head, her words filled with admiration for Sasuke.

"But Sasuke... where are you taking us? Aren't you going to destroy Konoha?" Karin asked again.

"I'm going to find the Hokage and demand an answer," Sasuke said coldly.

Based on his analysis of Obito's words, Itachi's behavior before his death, and the results of his own investigation, he basically believed Obito's claim that the Uchiha clan was destroyed under the orders of the Konoha leadership. That's why he decided to destroy Konoha with his own hands.

But-

Even so, a sliver of hope lingered in his heart, a hope that it was all a lie and that the Uchiha clan's demise wasn't caused in this way.

So before he actually took action, he decided to go to the current Hokage and ask him what the truth was about the annihilation of the Uchiha clan!

"Do you want an answer?"

Looking at Sasuke's cold profile, Karin, with her quick wit, immediately understood what Sasuke wanted to ask.

"I understand, Sasuke. In that case, we absolutely cannot be stopped by the Konoha ninjas before we find the Hokage. Leave this to me!"

Karin's expression became quite serious, and she immediately used Kagura's Mind's Eye to sense the chakra around her.

"Hmm? Seven chakra streams are rapidly approaching from 800 meters to our right rear, and more than a dozen chakra streams are scattered and approaching us from 1.5 kilometers to our left front. Sasuke, they're probably coming for us!"

Karin's Kagura Mind's Eye was like a wide-range radar, detecting all the abnormalities around her in just two seconds.

After receiving her information, Sasuke immediately led everyone to change direction and continue heading towards the Hokage Building in a direction where they would not encounter Konoha ninjas.

For a moment, it was as if they were in an empty field, with no Konoha ninja blocking their way.

Inside the restaurant.

Faced with the delicious-looking and fragrant food that had just been served, Wukong couldn't wait to start eating.

Jiraiya, Might Guy, and Rock Lee were already used to Goku's gluttonous appearance, so they didn't even glance at him, chatting and laughing while leisurely enjoying their meal.

.....

Suddenly, Jiraiya's expression changed, and he glanced at the window.

The very next second after he made that move, a member of the secret service silently appeared on the windowsill.

"Lord Jiraiya, there's an emergency I need to report!"

Before leaving, Tsunade had already given instructions that any major events in the village that required the Hokage's attention should be handled by Jiraiya. Therefore, the Anbu contacted Jiraiya immediately, and of course, Shizune's side was not overlooked either.

"Oh? What happened?"

Jiraiya's eyes narrowed. Tsunade had sent him to Konoha to deter troublemakers, but he hadn't expected something like this to happen.

"It's Uchiha Sasuke! Uchiha Sasuke has stormed into the village with his three subordinates."

"7

Since Goku and his group were in a private room with no other people present, the Anbu spoke without any hesitation.

"Uchiha Sasuke?" Jiraiya's brows furrowed.

Might Guy and Rock Lee naturally heard this as well. The former was alright, but the latter immediately stood up, clenching his fists excitedly, and exclaimed, "What did you say?! Sasuke?! Sasuke is finally back?!"

Sasuke's departure is not only a source of heartache for Naruto and Sakura, but also a knot in the hearts of all the other Konoha 12. They long for Sasuke to return and grow and progress together as before.

Hearing the news of Sasuke's return, how could Rock Lee not be overjoyed?

Of course, this is also why he automatically ignored the words "intruder" and "subordinate" in the Dark Guard's words; otherwise, he wouldn't be so surprised now.

"Lee, don't get agitated. This isn't as simple as just Sasuke returning."

Fortunately, there was Matt Kee, a calm and collected teacher, so Rock Lee quickly realized that he had been a little too excited.

"You mean, he used illusion magic to confuse the gatekeepers and then headed towards the Hokage Building?" Jiraiya asked in a deep voice after getting more details.

"Yes, according to the latest intelligence, they are indeed approaching the Hokage Building."

"That's strange. What was he doing there? Was he looking for Tsunade?" Jiraiya rubbed his chin, somewhat puzzled.

Then another thought popped into my head: Sasuke had already been bewitched by Madara Uchiha and was doing his bidding. So, was he in Konoha now because of a mission Madara Uchiha had given him?

Various thoughts raced through his mind. Jiraiya stood up and said decisively, "Leave this to me. I'll be there right away. Tell the others to only ensure that we have control over their locations, and not to attack them unless they intend to harm others."

The Dark Guard has its own unique way of communicating, so they can relay his message before he arrives at the scene, which is why he gave this order.

"Yes, Lord Jiraiya!"

The person in the shadows nodded in agreement, and then vanished instantly.

Jiraiya then looked at Goku, who was happily eating as if he hadn't heard their conversation at all, and said, "Goku, you can eat here slowly. I need to take care of some things."

"Me too! Lord Jiraiya! Please let me through!" Rock Lee said resolutely, his lips pursed.

"I'll go too, Jiraiya-sama. I have a duty to persuade Kakashi's disciple to come back," Might Guy said in a deep voice.

Jiraiya glanced at them and nodded slightly: "Alright, then we..."

"I want to go too!"

Before he could finish speaking, Wukong's voice interrupted.

Goku put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and looked at Jiraiya seriously, saying, "Uchiha Sasuke is Naruto's partner, right? I heard Naruto mention him yesterday. Naruto went out to look for him but didn't seem to find him, so I have to go ask him where he took that innocent person!"

Inside the alley, Sasuke and his group continued moving forward at high speed.

"No! There are too many people. We're completely surrounded and can't find any way out!"

Karin, sensing her surroundings once more, paled slightly.

In her perception, the Konoha ninjas had formed an encirclement, no longer scattered as before, giving them many openings to break through.

"Has the time finally come to carve a bloody path through?" Shuiyue grinned, revealing a set of sharp teeth, her pupils burning with a hidden excitement for slaughter.

Jugo remained silent, but he was already prepared for battle and could activate his cursed seal at any time, transforming into a killing state.

Sasuke maintained his cold expression, seemingly unfazed by the impending battle with his former comrades.

Just as they were about to collide with an oncoming group of Konoha ninja, Karin suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"Huh? They've moved away?"

In her perception, the Konoha ninjas who were about to meet them suddenly turned away from them, and they no longer met face to face.

.....

The four maintained their speed, leaping directly from the corner of the alley and landing on the rooftop to continue their run.

Looking to the side, they saw three Konoha ninjas standing on a rooftop not far away, watching them pass by.

"What, what's going on? Aren't they going to surround us anymore?" Karin was very puzzled by this scene.

"Could it be that they've set a trap ahead, waiting for us to fall into it?"

With this in mind, Karin quickly sensed the situation ahead, but found nothing amiss.

"Wait! Over there! A very powerful chakra is coming from over there!"

She suddenly noticed something, stopped abruptly, looked to her right, and her pupils contracted rapidly.

In her perception, that chakra was like a lake, stronger than all the Konoha ninjas around her, and... stronger than her favorite Sasuke!

After this scene unfolded, Sasuke, who was leading the way, stopped and looked in the direction Karin was pointing, but saw nothing.

"Oh? Very powerful chakra? How powerful? Is it stronger than the Jinchuriki we encountered last time?" Suigetsu asked with a playful expression.

No, not at all.

Karin, unusually, didn't argue with Suigetsu, and said with a serious expression.

"But the sense of danger emanating from this chakra is subtly stronger than that of that Jinchūriki!"

Upon hearing this, Sasuke's eyes narrowed slightly.

He is stronger than the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, but has less chakra. There are probably very few like him in Konoha.

Is it Tsunade, the Hokage? Or Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin?

Several thoughts raced through his mind, but he finally decided not to leave and to wait for the person to come.

Whether it's the Hokage or Jiraiya, they should be able to answer his question. If it's not one of them, then it's not too late for him to rush to the Hokage Building.

After they stopped, the Konoha ninjas who were originally preparing to surround them but were now following on both sides and behind also stopped. For a moment, it was a bit strange that these people were not moving.

Among these Konoha ninjas are the Twelve Konoha ...

Seeing Sasuke, whom he had chased alongside Naruto for so long but never caught, now standing right before him, the impatient Kiba finally couldn't contain himself and shouted at Sasuke from afar, "Sasuke! Have you finally come to your senses? Are you ready to come back? But what do you mean by bringing these people into the village?!"

Because of Tsunade's information blockade, most people in Konoha are still unaware that Sasuke has allegedly joined the Akatsuki and helped them capture the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

That's why Kiba Inuzuka asked that question.

However-

Sasuke ignored Kiba's questions, simply standing on the rooftop, gazing coldly into the distance, not even glancing at Kiba.

Kiba Inuzuka was furious and wanted to rush over, but his mother stopped him, saying that Jiraiya had already said to wait for him to come and handle the matter, and that they should not act rashly.

After a while, four figures leaped down from the rooftops in the distance.

A moment later, they arrived on the rooftop opposite Sasuke and his group, looking at them from afar.

"That's him! He's the one with amazing chakra!" Karin exclaimed, pointing to the person on the far left.

This person was none other than Jiraiya.

Beside him was Goku, followed by Rock Lee and Might Guy.

Karin only glanced at Rock Lee and Might Guy before not paying them much attention, but when her gaze fell on Goku, she hesitated.

Strange, I can't sense any chakra from this person, but judging from his movements, he's definitely not an ordinary person.

Just as this question arose in her mind, Sasuke looked at Jiraiya and coldly asked, "You are Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha?"
