Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the beginning

Unexpectedly, Yahiko's answer made him stunned.

"Do not."

Yahiko said seriously: "It is not a matter of force, but of communication and dialogue."

"Communication and dialogue?" The ninja with stripes on his face looked at Yahiko in disbelief. In the ninja world where force is supreme, a fight needs to be resolved through communication and dialogue? ?

"Are you serious?" The ninja with stripes on his face couldn't help asking: "This country is located between the three major countries. As long as they don't stop fighting for a day, the war will never disappear. The law of the jungle is the truth in the world. "

"So," Yahiko said in a resounding voice, "We are fighting to change this outcome."

Yahiko stepped forward and invited, "I believe you also want to see true peace. Come on, we can work together to change this country and this world of endless war!"

What... The five people on the opposite side were shocked when they heard this. This guy actually invited us who just wanted to kill him.

It has to be said that at this moment, the five people's numb heartstrings were severely plucked.

"Listen." At this time, Yahiko took out three straws from nowhere and said: "One straw is easy to break, but as long as three straws are put together, it is very..."

It was very awkward. Before Yahiko could put the three straws together, the three straws broke by themselves, making the scene very awkward for a while.

Fortunately, Yahiko was thick-skinned enough and forced himself to finish his speech.

The five people on the opposite side came to their senses after Yahiko's embarrassing behavior. Faced with Yahiko's recruitment, they certainly would not bow down directly, otherwise wouldn't it be better to worship Hanzo who is more powerful.

The five people were ready to fight to the death, but Yahiko did not kill them. He just said that they would protect the village. No matter how many times the five people or others came, he would not kill anyone but would only teach them a lesson.

“I hope you guys will still be here next time.”

Before leaving, the guy with stripes on his face said something meaningful to the innocent Yahiko trio.

After the five people walked away, Yahiko's serious face suddenly exploded, and he said excitedly to Konan and Nagato: "Konan, Nagato, did you see that? I did it. That guy said he hopes we will still be here next time. He must hope that we can keep our promise. He must want to join us who long for peace."

"Hehe..." Xiao Nan smiled softly.

"Sigh..." Nagato glanced at Yahiko and turned away.

The two of them didn't have the heart to tell Yahiko the reality, because what the man said before he left was not what Yahiko had imagined.

Instead, he reminded them that this village was being targeted by many wandering ninjas, so they shouldn't die before they could see each other again.

"Hey, what do you mean?"

Yahiko approached the two of them relentlessly, just like when they were little.

"who!"

Suddenly, two figures came into Nagato's sight. He was startled and quickly spoke out to warn them.

Yahiko and Konan looked over when they heard the voice and were shocked. It was because the person was too close to them, only ten meters away.

And they couldn't even feel the person coming so close. If the person hadn't exposed himself, they might not have noticed it until they were attacked.

In other words, if the people who came just now had launched an attack, they would have been seriously injured if not killed.

The three of them had to be on high alert.

"take it easy."

Li Yao stopped, waved his hand and said with a smile.

There was no trace of murderous intent in him, and he was completely relaxed with no intention of taking action.

Xiao Ye looked at the red hair on Changmen's head, a trace of reminiscence flashed in her eyes, and then she quickly fell silent and stood beside Li Yao without saying a word.

"Are you going to rob this village too?"

Yahiko and the others did not relax their vigilance because of Li Yao's words. Teacher Jiraiya told them that the more powerful a ninja is, the more powerful they can control their own aura.

In short, the better a ninja is at hiding his own aura, the stronger he will definitely be.

But... they will not back down because of a strong enemy. They will protect the village and fight to the death.

Nagato and Xiaonan stood on the left and right, facing Li Yao and Xiaoye, their eyes firm without a trace of fear.

As expected of someone who has experienced life and death ordeals since childhood.

While his courage is commendable, his mind is also very mature.

If you try too hard to approach such a person, you will lose their trust.

This was the conclusion Li Yao came to after observing Yahiko and the other two for a month.

Therefore, the best way to join the Three Little Ones is to be straightforward and sincere, so as to gain their trust.

So Li Yao changed his mindset. He no longer came to copy the Rinnegan's pupil chakra, but really wanted to join them to witness the birth of Akatsuki and to witness whether Yahiko could achieve his ideal of peace through his mouth like Naruto did.

After changing his mindset, Li Yao relaxed completely and went straight to find Yahiko and the other two.

Facing the vigilance of the three little ones, Li Yao smiled slightly and said, "I heard that there are three big fools here who protect the village for free. One of the girls uses paper escape. I think it should be you."

"Idiot, you are the big idiot." As soon as Li Yao finished speaking, Yahiko retorted loudly with a red face. He was anxious.

Nagato and Konan shook their heads speechlessly at Yahiko's reaction. Yahiko, shouldn't you focus on why these two people are looking for them?

Fortunately, Yahiko quickly calmed down. Seeing that Li Yao and Xiao Ye had no intention of taking action, he asked curiously, "What do you want to talk to us about?"

Li Yao smiled and said, "I came here because of your reputation."

"Is there a task for us?" Yahiko asked with his eyes lighting up.

"No." Li Yao shook his head, took out a wanted poster from his arms and threw it to Yahiko.

"Be careful." Nagato and Konan reminded subconsciously, thinking that there was something wrong with the wanted poster, such as being smeared with poison or something.

"It's okay." Yahiko took the wanted warrant without hesitation. He believed in his intuition that these two people were not here to attack the village.

"Well... this is..." Yahiko suddenly looked up at Xiao Yezi beside Li Yao, then looked down at the portrait on the wanted poster in his hand, his expression a little confused for a moment, "You... what... do you mean?"

what do you mean?

Nagato and Konan curiously leaned over to take a look, then immediately looked up at Xiaoye in surprise. The portrait on the wanted poster was of Xiaoye.

"You...you are actually a wanted ninja!"

"It's still worth thirty million taels!!"

"Who the hell are you?"

The three looked at Xiao Ye and Li Yao in shock. They were only a few years older than them, so how could they be wanted by an underground bounty? The three couldn't understand, wasn't this a treatment only available to ninjas from the five major countries?

Could it be that these two people are from the five major countries?

Thinking of this, the three of them became alert.

Li Yao ignored the three people's vigilance, glanced at Xiao Ye Zi, and said: "My name is Li, her name is Uzumaki Ye Zi, she is from the Uzumaki clan, in..."

Li Yao told the story of Xiaoye and her mother after the Uzumaki clan was exterminated, which concealed the fact that the Five Kage had joined forces. He only said that after he rescued the mother and daughter and they were escaping, Xiaoye's mother Guimo died, and he and Xiaoye were separated. Xiaoye was then captured by Kumogakure and subjected to various experiments.

Finally, three years ago, a mysterious ninja from the Hidden Rock Village attacked the Hidden Cloud Village, and Xiao Ye was able to escape.

Afterwards, Xiao Ye was implicated in this incident and was wanted by an underground bounty agency. Then he met Li Yao again, and the two fled to the Rain Country together.

Chapter 188 What is Peace

"Damn Kumogakure!!!"

"Damn world!!!"

After listening to Li Yao's story, the three little ones roared in anger in their hearts, and their vigilance against Li Yao and Xiao Ye was completely let down at this moment.

It’s not only because Xiaoye is a member of Nagato’s tribe, but also because of Xiaoye’s experience.

Compared with Xiao Ye, Yahiko felt that their tragic childhood experiences didn't seem so tragic.

Of course, misery cannot be compared. Only those who have experienced it can understand the pain.

But just by thinking about Xiao Ye's experience, the three of them could feel the despair in Xiao Ye's heart at that time.

Overnight, his country was destroyed and he had to flee.

He watched helplessly as his people died one by one.

His father died to protect him, and his mother was eaten by blood to protect him, with teeth marks all over her body.

After being rescued by Li Yao with great difficulty, her mother died again. She was also captured by Yunyin and subjected to various inhumane experiments. In the end, she almost became a tool for reproduction.

The actions of the Hidden Cloud Village made the three little ones feel for the first time the unknown darkness within the five major hidden villages, and their worldview was strongly impacted.

At the same time, Yahiko also became more determined in his beliefs.

He will fight for peace in the ninja world all his life, so that the tragedy that happened to Nagato's clan member Sister Ye Zi will never happen again, and everyone in the ninja world can enjoy the beauty of peace and no longer worry about their lives.

It's sizzling!

Yahiko used both hands to tear the wanted poster of Xiao Ye into pieces bit by bit.

"Sister Ye, don't worry. As long as we are in the Rain Country, I will never let you get hurt."

"Hey, am I overestimating my own abilities?"

After saying this, Yahiko suddenly realized that his strength was not as strong as Li Yao and Xiao Ye. When he said he would protect them, he blushed and touched his head, with a silly smile on his face.

Since ancient times, sincerity is the most lethal thing.

Even though Xiao Ye Zi was a bit mentally perverted and didn't trust anyone in this world except Li Yao, her heartstrings were plucked when she saw Yahiko smiling sincerely across from her. She frowned slightly, and although she still didn't say anything, the fact that she avoided Yahiko's sincere gaze showed that she was not at peace at the moment.

Because she felt Yahiko's determination.

This boy, who is younger than her, is really willing to risk his life to protect her.

This made Xiao Ye, who was used to Li Yao's kindness to her, suddenly feel a little uncomfortable with Yahiko's sudden appearance.

It's like you already have a boyfriend who loves you very much, and then suddenly a handsome guy says in front of you and your boyfriend that he likes you too.

At this time, Xiao Ye was somewhat at a loss.

Li Yao saw it, but he couldn't tell how he felt, maybe just a little relieved.

Subconsciously, Li Yao didn't want Xiao Ye to be as perverted as him.

Maybe the sincerity of Yahiko and the others will make Xiao Ye change.

Li Yao thought to himself.

It's his turn to take action now.

After gaining the trust of Yahiko and the other two through Xiao Ye's identity and experience, Li Yao still had to discuss some ideas with Yahiko.

"Aren't you afraid of Yunyin's people?" Li Yao asked.

Yahiko looked at Nagato and Konan on his left and right, and before Yahiko could say anything, the two had already blurted out what they were talking about.

"We support Yahiko's decision, Sister Ye, please stay. We will protect you."

Faced with the sincere words of the two little ones, Little Leaf still didn't say anything. He just turned his head away and didn't look at the three little ones.

She actually didn't quite understand why these three people believed Li Yao's story. Aren't they afraid that this was a deception?

In fact, Xiao Ye knew very well that she and the uncle approached these three people because they were directed to do so, not because they wanted to.

Well... maybe now the uncle has changed his mind and is willing to do so.

But Xiao Ye still felt uncomfortable with the fact that Yahiko and the other two trusted them so quickly.

"Brother Li, join us and let's create a peaceful world without war." Yahiko looked at Li Yao and invited him solemnly.

Li Yao smiled, looked at the three children and asked, "What is peace in your eyes? What is considered peace?"

What is peace?

How is peace?

Hearing the question raised by Li Yao, the three children were all stunned. Nagato and Konan looked confused. They had never thought about this question before and could not think of an answer for a while. They could not help but look at Yahiko.

Of the three, Yahiko has always been the one with the most far-sighted ideas.

Most of the time, the two of them just followed Yahiko and did things without giving it much thought.

Yahiko did not disappoint the two. He quickly recovered from his daze, with an expectant look on his face. He turned around to look at Nagato and Konan, then turned to Li Yao and said, "I think peace means that all orphans like me, Nagato and Konan can grow up without worries."

Correct!

This is it!

Nagato and Konan's eyes lit up when they heard Yahiko's answer, and then they thought of the suffering they had endured since childhood, and their eyes quickly became moist.
