Uchiha Izumi was so frightened that her shoulders trembled, and then she found Seto Chihiro standing on the wall for some reason, reaching out to pat her shoulder. She took a deep breath, grabbed the hand on her shoulder, and said, "Don't come so close suddenly, you will easily scare people like this."
"It's obviously Sister Quan, what are you doing? I called you so many times before, but it seemed like you didn't hear me." Seto Chihiro asked.
"Maybe I remembered it wrongly." Uchiha Izumi naturally would not say what was in his mind. Anyway, they still had a long time to spend together in the future, so there was no need to rush.
"All right..."
Chihiro Seto had never experienced such a thing. In her previous life, the girl she talked to the most was the auntie in the university cafeteria. Because part of the money she earned from working outside would be given back to the orphanage, she would eat in a cafeteria in the school, and over time she got to know that auntie.
If Quan took off the mask, he might be able to guess something by looking at the color on Quan's face. But under the cover of the mask, there was no way to guess what the other person was thinking just by the sound.
Seto Chihiro wanted to observe Izumi carefully to see if she was angry, but he saw that her eyes were evasive and she looked over here from time to time. It was obviously not like she was angry, so he gave up the idea of observing her.
"Ahhhh! There's a pervert!"
Several voices that were obviously female cries for help reached the ears of Seto Chihiro and Uchiha Izumi.
The two looked at each other and rushed towards the sound of the call for help.
The patrol content of the Anbu did not actually include tasks such as catching perverts in the past. Such incidents, which were similar to civil disputes, were previously handled by the Konoha Police Department of the Uchiha clan. However, on the one hand, due to the demise of the Uchiha clan, this authority was taken back by Konoha, and on the other hand, when the Hokage and other Konoha high-level officials are not in Konoha, they must be careful about any disturbance.
The sound came from a small lake located in a remote area outside the Konoha Death Forest.
When Seto Chihiro and Uchiha Izumi ran over, there were several pens and a notebook scattered on the ground. Three women, wrapped in white bath towels, with their hands on their chests and faces full of panic, were standing there.
"Where is the pervert you said? Where is the pervert?" Uchiha Izumi said.
Among the three people, a slightly older woman asked cautiously: "Who are you?"
"us..."
"We are patrol officers in the village. We heard your scream just now. May I ask where is the pervert you just described?"
Seto Chihiro stayed quietly behind Uchiha Izumi. He was just thinking about how to weave his identity with Izumi. When he was about to say a title at random, Izumi protected him behind him.
Although he suspected Tsunade had said something to Izumi yesterday not to let him reveal his identity.
But wasn't Quan protecting him too much by keeping him behind him? He couldn't even see the figures of several important victims in front of him except their calves.
"So, when you were taking a shower, you suddenly saw something shiny here, and then you walked over and saw that it was a white-haired man holding a telescope, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's right."
Uchiha Izumi gestured the distance from the lake to here, and at the same time recalled the white-haired ninja in his mind. After finding that there was no similar person, he continued:
"You should leave here first. Remember to report back to the village. We will notify you when we catch the suspect."
"Thank you, ninja-sama."
Seto Chihiro watched the backs of several people leaving in a hurry, picked up the notebook on the ground, lowered her head and flipped through it twice, and found that it was full of boring content. Except for a few imaginary ninjutsu that were somewhat interesting, the rest of the content was not as good as what she had seen in her previous life.
Unfortunately, he was a child now and it was of no use to him, so he threw it back to the ground.
Seto Chihiro thought of a person from Izumi's summary, a person with white hair who would peek and record at the same time. It seemed that there was no one else except Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas.
But he shouldn't be in Konoha at this time, right?
Seto Chihiro closed her eyes and began to sense her surroundings.
He mapped this environment in his mind. Behind a stone 10 meters away, a large amount of chakra was emanating. When he discovered the other party, the other party seemed to be quietly observing him and Izumi.
"Hey, why did you lose it? Is there something written on it?"
Uchiha Izumi picked up things on the ground hoping to find some clues, but she saw Chihiro pick up the notebook, flip through it twice, shake her head and throw it back on the ground, which made her feel curious.
"Sister Quan, don't look at it. Everything that's not recorded is just some boring stuff."
Seto Chihiro snatched the notebook and put it in the ninja tool bag behind her.
"Boring content?"
Uchiha Izumi wanted to know what was on it, but thinking about the way Chihiro shook her head just now, he thought it must be quite boring.
"Little boy, I won't let you talk about what I wrote down. A kid like you probably doesn't even know what's on it."
Uchiha Izumi instantly took a alert stance, she actually didn't notice that there were other people around.
Chapter 34: Fateful Encounter - Revised
Go back to one day ago.
"Jiraiya, I leave this mission to you. After Tsunade and I go to the Daimyo's mansion, you can go and find out more about the child."
"Old man, since you and Tsunade have already sent out ninjas to find out their background, what's the point of testing them again?"
"Tsunade has lost her last clan member since she died at the Rope Tree. I have no way to see the child alone. Although the child can use Wood Release now, it is possible that other villages have taken advantage of Tsunade's psychology..."
"Okay, okay, I get it... But this Wind Style is only slightly similar to the Rasengan. Moreover, with such strength at such a young age, which village would be willing to send him out as an undercover agent..."
"If he is really not an undercover agent, you can give him the Rasengan jutsu and help him perfect the wind escape technique. Then see how the wind escape technique is actually used. There are not many wind escape techniques in the village to begin with, and this kind of wind escape technique that can reach S-level super-powerful power after being perfected is even rarer..."
"Old man, the Rasengan was invented by the Fourth Hokage. You did this for the monkey... Oh, I get it..."
Jiraiya muttered to himself but ultimately didn't say what he was about to say out loud. After all, it would be too hurtful if he said it out loud. He flipped through the scroll in his hand, roughly read the information on it, and looked at the teacher sitting on the chair with a little helplessness on his face, but more of dissatisfaction.
His main purpose of returning to Konoha this time was to attend the inauguration ceremony of the Fifth Hokage and track down the whereabouts of Orochimaru, not to seize the ninjutsu created by Tsunade's clan.
Previously, Konoha's Anbu sent a message which stated that Tsunade, who loved gambling and always lost, was about to become the Fifth Hokage. The old man hoped that they could protect the village during their absence. There was nothing wrong with this and it even coincided with his idea.
He had heard about the war between Konoha and the Mist Ninja when he was in the Land of Rice some time ago. At first he thought it was fake, but he didn't expect that the Mist Ninja would actually give up the water battle and travel thousands of miles to the Land of Grass to start a war with Konoha. Afterwards, he also heard that Tsunade, one of the Three Ninjas, defeated the Mizukage head-on, and the two countries formed an alliance as the final result.
According to Jiraiya's original plan, he was going to collect some materials in the Land of Rice and then meet Tsunade, but half a month later, he accidentally discovered the trace of another old friend - Orochimaru.
At this time, Orochimaru seemed to be being chased by another group of people, but after the other party discovered Jiraiya, they quickly left after seeing his back.
There is no doubt that both meeting Tsunade and finding out who is chasing Orochimaru are important, but Orochimaru is more important to him. The reason why he wanders in the ninja world is, on the one hand, to find the two legendary sons of prophecy, and on the other hand, to get back the man who once could trust his back.
Finally, after following the trail all the way and going around in the Land of Water Trap and the Land of Iron, I finally saw this friend whom I hadn't seen for many years during a pursuit.
From a perceptual point of view, there was no other change, but Jiraiya intuitively felt that Orochimaru gave him a strange feeling. After the battle, he also knew Orochimaru's next move -
"It's been a long time since we last met, Jiraiya." Orochimaru raised the corner of his mouth, and looked at Orochimaru standing on Wen Tai's head, revealing an evil smile: "I didn't expect that I would see you at such a weak moment, this is really unlucky!"
The other party said so, but did not show any fear at all. Jiraiya's eyes were full of solemnity. He was the only one along the way who knew what kind of human experiments were recorded on the documents dropped in Orochimaru's laboratory.
"Have you succeeded in that ninjutsu?"
As a former companion, Jiraiya knew what Orochimaru was researching. Coupled with the various feelings of incongruity during the battle just now, the answer was obvious.
"Haha~ I didn't expect you to be able to sense it. In that case, I'll let you see my final result, Jiraiya..."
Having said this, Orochimaru's voice suddenly turned into a female voice, and at the same time he tore off the disguise on his face, revealing a very feminine face.
"Surprised? Although I suffered some minor accidents some time ago, fortunately, I still successfully possessed this body. The only drawback is that my strength is slightly weaker than before..."
Jiraiya stared at Orochimaru with his pupils fixed, and a little cold sweat broke out on his head unconsciously. He actually completed this technique. He must keep Orochimaru here...
"Fire Style. Toad Oil Flame Bomb!"
A large amount of toad oil spit out from Gamabuntai's mouth, which coordinated with Jiraiya's fire escape. After the two came into contact, a sea of fire was instantly formed. Orochimaru seemed to have no time to react at all and was directly swallowed up by the sea of fire. The surrounding trees came into contact with the flames containing oil and burned violently, emitting thick smoke.
Orochimaru did not dodge or evade in the sea of fire. After the flames died down, only a charred shell was left on the ground.
The next second, a brand new Orochimaru slowly emerged from the scorched ground.
"Jiraiya, do you really want to kill me? If I hadn't been prepared to use molting from the beginning, I would have been burned to death by you, right?"
"I don't remember you being burned to death so easily."
"Haha, thank you so much for your trust in me. Unfortunately, our conversation cannot continue. After all, I still need to go to Konoha next."
"You don't think you can still leave here, do you?" Jiraiya frowned, and formed seals with his hands again, preparing to use a large-scale ninjutsu again. He was a little worried in his heart. The usable cover around him had disappeared. He couldn't escape now, right?
Orochimaru looked around, shook his head, and showed a pitiful expression: "Jiraiya, you are still so naive and stupid. You don't really think that you can keep me here by using this ninjutsu?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Orochimaru's body turned into a pile of mud. If you look closely, you can still see the outline of Orochimaru's face.
"It turned out to be the Earth Clone. Damn it, he escaped again."
.....
Uchiha Izumi took out a kunai and looked at the man in front of him and the toad under his feet with caution: "Tell me quickly, which village are you from, and what are your plans for coming to Konoha?"
The memories ended here. Jiraiya finally did not tell others that Orochimaru might return to Konoha. Just as Orochimaru said, his body was still in a weak state. As long as the one who came was not a clone but the real person, he would definitely have a chance to keep the other party. Besides, Konoha still had a group of powerful ninjas. Even if the news about Orochimaru was revealed, it would only alert the enemy.
He looked at the two ANBU who were on guard in front of him. According to the information he received, one of them should be one of the remaining members of the Uchiha clan, and the other one was the target of his operation this time.
Of course, Jiraiya had no intention of doing as the old man said, pretending not to know him, fighting him, and then revealing his identity.
After all, he was one of Konoha's three ninjas, how could he do such a cheap thing? Besides, there were more important things to do now.
Jiraiya stretched out a finger, pointed at Izumi, and then moved his finger to Seto Chihiro under her strange gaze, and said arrogantly: "Boy, what I wrote is not boring. I'm afraid you didn't understand anything just now, and you are saying that what I wrote is boring, right?"
The corner of Seto Chihiro's mouth twitched. My goodness, why is he still holding on to this matter? Even if he is one of the three ninjas, he can't discuss such things in broad daylight, right?
Uchiha Izumi glanced at Chihiro's ninja tool bag, her curiosity was aroused again, and she also wanted to know what was written on it.
Although Jiraiya couldn't see the expression under the mask, since the other party didn't refute him, he agreed. He showed a meaningful expression and said, "Don't be discouraged, kid. When you grow up, maybe you will understand what kind of art is recorded on it."
Although Uchiha Izumi didn't know what the guy in front of him was talking about, but judging from his expression, he was definitely saying something bad.
"Art fire escape ho fireball!"
Looking at the huge fireball flying towards him, Jiraiya shook his head and said self-deprecatingly: "Really, now all the ninjas in the village don't recognize me anymore? Ninja technique. Needle Jizo!"
Needle Jizo is a defensive type of ninjutsu. The white hair behind Jiraiya spread rapidly, like a quilt wrapped around the body in winter, he and the toad under his feet were wrapped in long white hair.
The fireball hit the white hair, but it had no effect at all except for emitting a foul smell.
Quan looked at the ninjutsu used by the white-haired man in front of him and was silent for a second. He seemed to know who the man in front of him was, but after looking at the telescope beside him, he was still a little hesitant to confirm, so he asked: "Who are you... why are you..."
“Hahahaha… Have you finally figured out who I am? In that case, let me introduce myself!”
Jiraiya's mouth curved into an arc, and he took a step forward with his right foot, stretched out his left palm, and posed in a very handsome pose, "I am the Toad Spirit of Myoboku Mountain, Xiansu Daoren, commonly known as Toad Sage Jiraiya!"
"Qua~~!"
"..."
