Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 88 Large-Scale Sealing Technique

After a while, Kakashi finally finished deciphering the coded message and said to Chiga in a deep voice, "Although the coded message is not fully translated, the general meaning is that the Iwa ninjas discovered that the target, the perverted old man, appeared at the snow mountain bathing area in the Land of Hot Springs. They have dispatched a demolition team to capture him and have also brought sealing ninjas to seal the target and bring him back to the Land of Earth."

Although the cipher text does not explicitly state that it is Jiraiya.

But the old lecher was too blatant.

Jiraiya is only middle-aged, but his white hair makes him look much older.

As for why the Land of Earth is targeting Jiraiya, that doesn't need any explanation.

As a high-end fighting force in Konoha, if they could be dealt with secretly, it would obviously be a good thing for other countries.

Moreover, Jiraiya was alone, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Not to mention Iwa ninja, any other country would have taken the same action.

"Chiga, let him go!"

Kakashi said, putting the scroll away and returning it to the Iwa ninja's arms.

"Okay, let's go find Mr. Minato and report this to him."

Chiga understood Kakashi's actions; he didn't want to alert the enemy, since if this ninja died or lost information, it would be easy for others to guess the problem.

They can better support Jiraiya by remaining in the shadows.

Afterwards, Chiga used the Sharingan to make the Iwa ninja forget what had happened before, and then she and Kakashi found Minato, who was still hanging around Kabukicho.

Chiga saw that although Minato was chatting happily with the young lady, his behavior did not cross any lines. She felt a little regretful that she had not been able to catch Minato in a compromising situation.

He then said, "Minato-senpai, stop getting carried away! Something terrible has happened!"

Upon hearing this, Minato immediately led Chiga and Kakashi away from Kabukicho before asking, "What happened?"

At this point, Kakashi recounted to Minato in detail how they had suddenly discovered the Iwa ninja's stronghold and watched the Iwa ninja's intelligence scroll.

After hearing this, Minato's face also darkened.

It seems that even someone as rarely angered as Minato harbored murderous intent when it involved someone close to him.

Without saying much, he immediately used his psychic powers to summon a communication toad.

"Gamayuki, could you please inform Jiraiya-sensei? I need to speak with him urgently!"

Gama Yu shook her head and said, "No, Jiraiya said he doesn't want to be disturbed in any way while he's gathering materials. He hasn't even summoned our clan in a long time."

"hateful!"

Minato could only curse his teacher inwardly for being unreliable, as he hadn't used his Spirit Link Technique in a long time.

Since they couldn't reach Jiraiya, the three of them had no choice but to head to the snow mountain resort to support him.

The situation was urgent, so the three set off overnight and arrived at the small town of the snow mountain bath mentioned in the Iwa ninja information scroll a day later.

At this moment, the town was silent, and black smoke was rising from the direction of the snow mountain bathing beach.

Upon seeing this, Chiga and the other two immediately realized that Jiraiya had already engaged in combat with the Iwa ninja.

The three quickened their pace immediately, and only when they were almost near the battlefield did they slow down, conceal themselves, and slowly approach.

Before long, the three of them found themselves hiding in a pile of ruins.

The fighting has now subsided.

"It's over so quickly?"

Minato asked in confusion, but then realized that his teacher must have been so engrossed in gathering material that he had been tricked by the Iwa ninja, which was why the battle had ended so quickly.

Thinking of this, Minato's face showed even more anxiety.

He peered through a crack in the wall at the center of the battlefield.

Five demolition squads, plus fifteen sealing ninjas.

This is quite a large-scale operation.

Chiga and the other two initially ignored the demolition team on guard outside and looked at the sealing ninja in the middle.

The dozen or so sealing ninjas formed a circle, which was filled with densely packed sealing formulas, while in the center was a figure wrapped tightly in bandages.

This group is completing the final step of the sealing technique.

"Holy crap! Has Jiraiya-sama broken some kind of divine law by using such a massive sealing technique?!"

Chiga carefully examined the situation. Based on the sealing techniques he had learned from Kushina, he realized that this sealing technique was not only incapable of sealing Jiraiya, but would also be useless against any tailed beast.

"Jiraiya-sensei is very powerful, so it's not surprising that he would use this kind of sealing technique."

Minato, who was also highly skilled in sealing techniques, recognized the power of this sealing technique, nodded in agreement, and praised his teacher in return.

"What do we do now? The enemy has five demolition teams. Breaking through and destroying the seal won't be easy."

Chiga asked Minato.

Minato thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice to Chika and Kakashi, "I'll hold off these five demolition squads. You two go and rescue Jiraiya-sensei!"

"Minato-sensei!"

Kakashi cried out in concern. The Third Demolition Squad had chased them to the ends of the earth back then, let alone the Fifth Demolition Squad.

"Don't worry, I was trying to escape back then, and I wasn't in good shape!" Minato comforted him. "I can't say I can kill them all now, but I can definitely hold them off."

Minato was really going all out to save Jiraiya.

Seeing that Kakashi was about to say something more, Chiga stopped him.

Having also mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, Chiga was well aware of the power of this space-time ninjutsu.

If it were a fight to the death, the Minato team might not survive against the fifth demolition squad at this moment, but if it were a matter of restraint, there would be no problem at all.

After all, the Flying Thunder God Technique is too flexible.

Moreover, with Minato's reflexes, dodging danger would be no problem at all.

Once the plan was finalized, the three of them began to take action.

In order to create an opportunity for Minato, Chiga took the initiative.

He swiftly formed hand seals, then uttered a soft shout: "Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Technique!"

In an instant, a fire dragon spewed out of Chiga's mouth.

The Iwa ninja had already noticed the commotion, and when they looked over, they saw a huge fire dragon roaring towards them.

"Enemy attack!"

The leader of the Iwa ninja shouted, then slapped his hands on the ground.

"Earth Release·Earth Style Wall!"

Several earthen walls rose from the ground, blocking the fire dragon's path.

However, at that moment, he suddenly saw several kunai coming at him.

Before he could even figure out what these kunai were for, Minato had already appeared in front of one of them.

Minato grabbed a kunai and slit the throat of one of the Iwa ninjas who didn't have time to react.

Upon seeing Minato's sudden appearance, the leader of the Iwa ninja's expression changed, and he said with murderous intent, "Konoha ninja? Do you want to break the peace agreement?"

"Shouldn't we be the ones saying that?"

Upon hearing this, Minato's face turned cold. Those damned Iwa ninjas still wanted to hide their targeting of Jiraiya-sensei even at this point.

Unbearable!
