Konoha: From meeting Kaguya Otsutsuki

"Target..." Naruto repeated the word.

Once upon a time, his dream was to be recognized by everyone.

Like a happy child, I have friendship...family...

Now, he is confused.

It was as if I had suddenly forgotten all those things, and I just followed Jiraiya-sensei around the world...

Sasuke had already walked to the other corner of the training ground.

Naruto still stood there in dismay.

In the laboratory, seeing Orochimaru appear, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was still conscious for a while, went to meet him.

"Orochimaru, what do you have in mind? Maybe I can help you."

Orochimaru raised an eyebrow and looked at him in surprise.

"I just hope it will end soon, in every sense. Whether it's the lives of the people here or other things..." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.

"Can the former Jinchūriki recover the tailed beast chakra he originally possessed?" Orochimaru asked.

"Even if they could, the amount of chakra they have is not as much as a real Jinchuriki," said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Orochimaru shrugged indifferently.

Seeing Orochimaru's disapproving expression, Sarutobi Hiruzen pondered for a while and said, "According to Jiraiya, the nine tailed beasts were separated from the Ten Tails. In other words, the chakra of the tailed beasts is from the same source. Perhaps we can use the chakra of the tailed beasts on the current Jinchūriki to guide them out..."

Orochimaru's eyes lit up, he was worthy of being called a Ninjutsu Doctor.

Broad horizons and rich knowledge.

"Naruto, he might not cooperate..."

On the other hand, Jiraiya set out on the journey to the Land of Rain.

"Konan, Yahiko, we're going to meet again." Jiraiya sighed silently.

It was Orochimaru who told him the information about Akatsuki.

Orochimaru also informed him of Akatsuki's plan to collect the tailed beasts.

Even Orochimaru, a member of the organization, told him.

The purpose of his trip was to find out whether Akatsuki organization had any connection with Kaguya.

If not, maybe tell them the truth.

If there is……

Jiraiya sighed.

Sometimes, he couldn't help but sigh that what Orochimaru said was somewhat correct.

He has nothing now, which means he has no channel to speak out.

Without the support of a village or a country, some people are simply unwilling to have an equal dialogue with him.

But is it possible for an outsider like him to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries? It seems impossible.

After counting them all, the only place left that has a chance to be recaptured is Konoha.

After all, there will be a battle with Konoha.

And Orochimaru, with the Impure World Reincarnation in his hands, can easily gain support comparable to the fighting power of an entire village.

...

Inside the high tower of the Rain Country, Nagato's pale face suddenly flashed with a fierce look, and he said to the quiet Xiaonan beside him: "Someone is invading, northwest."

Xiaonan nodded seriously, and with a "swish", a pair of white wings suddenly appeared behind her, as pure white as the fluff of a white swan.

She left the tower and flew towards the direction Nagato mentioned.

Occasionally a few pieces of paper fell on the ground. When the residents of the Rain Country looked up, they saw a streak of white passing before their eyes.

The rain was drizzling and Jiraiya frowned.

From the moment he entered the Land of Rain, he felt that this rain was not simple and carried strange chakra.

"It seems that we have been discovered." Jiraiya sighed.

The sound of wind reached his ears and Jiraiya turned to look.

The blue-haired woman, with a white flower on her head and wearing a black robe with red clouds, looked at him with indifference.

"Konan, long time no see. Yahiko, Nagato, are they okay?" Jiraiya waved and said with a smile.

Konan didn't say anything, but carefully studied Jiraiya's expression.

He didn't seem surprised at all. Could it be that he had expected to meet her here?

"Teacher Jiraiya, who told you that I was in the Land of Rain?"

"Haha, we have the same idea." Jiraiya scratched his head, still with a smile on his face.

Xiaonan had no intention of reminiscing with him and said coldly, "Teacher Jiraiya, can we leave now?"

Jiraiya's expression suddenly froze, "Huh? I came here specially to see you, are you so unwelcoming to the teacher?"

"...What's the matter?" Xiaonan's tone was very stiff.

"I am homeless now, so I want to come to you for help."

"..." Xiaonan was silent and curled the corners of his mouth, obviously not believing it.

"Teacher Jiraiya, since you are unwilling to leave, I will take action. Outsiders are not welcome in the Rain Country."

The paper wings on Xiaonan opened again.

"Hey, wait..." Jiraiya said quickly, "I do have something important to say, but I want to talk to the three of you together. Where's Yahiko, and where's Nagato?"

"Yahiko..." A trace of loneliness flashed in Konan's eyes, and he whispered to himself.

boom~

A loud noise was heard from somewhere, and then a cold man with short orange hair, circle patterns in his eyes, and a nose stud on his face walked towards the two of them and appeared in Jiraiya's eyes.

"Yahiko..." Jiraiya said in shock.

"Teacher Jiraiya." Tendo Pain said coldly, without correcting his address.

Xiaonan took a few steps back and stood behind him, remaining quiet and watching the two people talking.

"Teacher Jiraiya, Konoha's ninjas are not welcome here." said Tendo Pain.

"I'm not a ninja from any ninja village. I only represent myself." Jiraiya spread his hands.

"Yahiko, you took Nagato's eyes, what about him?"

Jiraiya said, staring at the Rinnegan in Tendo Pain's eyes.

"..."

Tendo Pain and Konan looked at each other and raised their hands.

"Shenra Tianzheng."

A strong repulsive force came, and the defenseless Jiraiya was pushed more than ten meters away.

He was a little helpless.

I just want to talk about something, why is it so difficult?

He came in front of the two men in succession, and he had to speak again: "I am not here to spy on intelligence, nor am I here to fight with you."

While speaking, Jiraiya raised his hands, his body in a completely relaxed state, just to show that he had no intention of taking action.

"I know that your Akatsuki organization is collecting tailed beasts for Kaguya, right?"

Hearing this, Xiaonan was shocked.

How did Jiraiya know the purpose of Akatsuki?

Then, a trace of doubt and confusion flashed across her face.

Who is Kaguya? The Kaguya clan? Or, could it be that the masked man who calls himself Uchiha Madara is actually Kaguya?

Tendo Pain's expression on the side did not change at all, he still had that expressionless look on his face.

Nagato in the tower had the same doubts as Konan.

Jiraiya carefully studied the expressions of the two people, and when he saw the expression on Konan's face, he felt a little relieved.

Apparently, they didn't know Kaguya.

"Can we talk? I can tell you what I know."

Konan and Tendo Pain remained silent and did not express any intention of driving him away.

"The nine tailed beasts will merge to form the Ten-Tails, but who will the Ten-Tails belong to? Kaguya will definitely try to snatch it away..."

Jiraiya was talking to himself, but Konan interrupted him, "Teacher Jiraiya, who exactly is Kaguya you are talking about? Where did you get your information from?"

"Kaguya..."

In the distance, a certain White Zetsu silently watched the figures of the few people, "Is Jiraiya also in contact with Nagato and Konan?"

...

"If you don't believe me, go to the Land of Hot Springs and see who your Akatsuki organization's Zetsu is working for."

After saying that, seeing that Konan and the other two had no intention of keeping him, Jiraiya touched his nose and turned to leave.

Next stop, the Land of Hot Springs.

Konan and Tendo Pain stood there, still digesting what Jiraiya said.

The Ten-Tails actually has an owner?

Bai Jue has lived for thousands of years?

Will the person who has been sealed for a thousand years return to the human world?

How bizarre?

After a long time, Konan and Tendo Pain returned to the tower of the Rain Country one after another.

Nagato's face was filled with confusion.

Konan said worriedly, "Nagato, do you think what Jiraiya-sensei said is true? Is everything we do just to help others?"

"..." Nagato was thinking and didn't say anything.

"If it's true, should we continue with our plan?"

Hearing this, Nagato's pale face flushed, and his tone was a little excited, "The Ten-Tails is the most powerful force in the world, and it can only be controlled by the Akatsuki organization."

If you deny his goal, it is equivalent to denying his entire life.

If everything can be let go, then what does all the pain he has experienced before mean? Is it just a joke?

Xiaonan said "hmm", nodded slightly, and said softly: "Does that person know?"

The person she was asking about was, of course, the man who called himself "Uchiha Madara".

Nagato was silent.

The tower fell into silence for a moment.

Konan bit her lip and said, "Nagato, how about letting me go to the Land of Hot Springs?"

"..." Nagato hesitated for a moment and uttered two words, "No."

After hearing Jiraiya's story, Nagato naturally began to doubt Jue.

But most of the intelligence gathering within the Akatsuki organization was done by Zetsu.

If he is gone, who will take his place?

If he had a purpose, then how much truth and falsehood did he convey in the information?

Thinking about it this way, Nagato wondered again, could it be that Jiraiya told him all this just to divide the Akatsuki organization?
