Naruto, this is called Kuuga, not White Zetsu

"Many years ago, the Great Toad Sage dreamed of a prophecy that in the future I would embark on a writing journey, and a person who would bring major changes to the ninja world would appear, and that person would become my apprentice. I would lead that reformer to avoid bringing great disasters to the world. For this reason, I embarked on a journey to find the child of prophecy, until nine years ago..."

"No matter how many times the blue pupils were predicted before, they would be defeated by the son of prophecy with green eyes. But in the prophecy of nine years ago, the pair of blue pupils would be killed by a human with blood-red eyes..."

"And that pair of blood-red eyes will destroy the future of the ninja world... The tailed beasts that used to play with the child of prophecy will become food for those eyes. They will be devoured by the owner of those eyes... Countless ninjas will fall before those eyes... The owner of those red eyes only needs to wave his hand lightly, and countless fierce flames will rise..."

"The bright blue giant that is missed will stand tall on the earth... It will defeat a warrior who looks like him with its bare hands..."

"The brothers of destiny will become good friends without knowing it. They will learn from each other and have the same moves, until one day the elder brother will leave the younger brother again..."

"When the blue-eyed boy will call out the names of the nine tailed beasts again, his brother will stand behind him again, and they will fight together for the future of the ninja world."

After Jiraiya said the last sentence, he fell into silence. Then he looked at Seto Chihiro and found that she was silent with him. He suddenly panicked.

For the sake of Seto Chihiro, Tsunade even dared to threaten the old man with the position of Hokage.

If she knew that she had made her people decadent, she would definitely beat me to death.

"Kid, where is the momentum you had when you said you were going to become the child of prophecy? Why do you feel even more depressed than me now?"

"But didn't you say that there was no way I could become the child of prophecy?"

Jiraiya was slightly stunned: "Yes, you can't become the child of prophecy, but you can help me find the child of prophecy. How can you be so decadent?"

"What do you mean? Who is decadent?" A trace of confusion flashed in Seto Chihiro's eyes.

"Weren't you in a decadent state just now?"

"I'm just wondering if this is really a prophecy? Isn't it a bit too absurd? One moment it's the tailed beast, and the next moment it's the blue-eyed boy playing with the tailed beast. Don't you think there are many strange things about this prophecy? One moment the tailed beast playing with the blue-eyed boy is eaten, and the next moment the tailed beast playing with the blue-eyed boy appears again. Even if the tailed beast is eaten, it can't be whipped here every day, right? And... Lord Jiraiya, are you sure you're not making up a story to tease me?"

Hearing this, Jiraiya gently placed the teacup on the table, his brows instantly twisted into a frown.

Does this prophecy really sound like a made-up story?

Minato said it was like a story, Tsunade said it was like a story, the old man said it was like a story, and now even Tsunade’s disciples said it was like a story... But that’s what he heard when he heard it!

Jiraiya fell into deep doubt.

"And, Master Jiraiya, you said you were looking for the child of prophecy, but do you have any other features besides a pair of eyes? What is a brother by destiny? And what is becoming a friend without knowing it?"

At this point, Seto Chihiro pinched herself hard to keep her inner peace and tranquility: "The most important thing is... Lord Jiraiya, didn't the Great Toad Sage tell us what the enemy's characteristics are? Just a pair of red eyes. There are five pairs of red eyes in this room!"

Jiraiya suddenly thought of several Uchiha clan members: "Do you think they are the Uchiha clan members wandering in the ninja world? They also have the Sharingan and strange abilities... Oh, when Tsunade submitted the combat report, she also specifically mentioned that Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyō ability is to release a kind of dark flame."

"Itachi Uchiha slaughtered his own people, and then attacked his mother and father. He has red eyes..."

"That seems to make some sense. When I was fighting with Uchiha Itachi, he just looked at me and flames came out of the ground. Water jutsu couldn't extinguish them at all."

Seto Chihiro responded and carefully observed Jiraiya's expression. When he found that Jiraiya was thinking along her own lines, he picked up the teapot and refilled his own and the other person's cups. In fact, he had no intention of letting Jiraiya and the red eyes lead him to find the person who would destroy the ninja world. It was just the result of his own thinking.

"Is it impossible to extinguish it with ordinary water jutsu? Didn't you really see him waving his hand? Could it be that you didn't pay attention at the time?" Jiraiya raised his own questions.

After hearing this, Seto Chihiro said calmly, "Master Jiraiya, how could I remember this wrong? If I had dodged a little later, I would have been burned to death by that flame. That kind of flame can even burn the soil on the ground."

Even the soil on the ground will burn?

Jiraiya simply could not imagine how there could be such a ninjutsu in this world. It did not require any hand seals, only a look at the opponent, and then he could create flames that would burn on the ground.

He glanced at Seto Chihiro and thought that this kid was able to drag on with Uchiha Itachi for so long, and most of what he said was true. The prophecy would change nine years ago. Could it be that Uchiha Itachi had already obtained that kind of dark flame nine years ago?

In fact, it is not surprising that Jiraiya would think this way. Sarutobi Hiruzen never made public the fact that Uchiha Itachi was an undercover agent of the Akatsuki organization. Jiraiya only knew that the Uchiha clan's Mangekyō Sharingan could produce a new eye technique, and he never thought that Uchiha Itachi would be related to his teacher.

"Chihiro, do you think there is a possibility that Uchiha Itachi had actually awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan when he was 9 years old? I remember that Konoha and the Hidden Mist Village were at war at that time. Would that have stimulated Uchiha Itachi at that time?"

"?"

Seto Chihiro looked up in confusion, wondering if the time span was too long. And is there really no mind reading? I actually thought the same thing as her.

Then he saw Jiraiya continue to speak out his speculation: "Chihiro, think about it, Uchiha Itachi uses his eyes to release the pupil technique. He only needs to wave his hands when releasing the pupil technique to perfectly meet all the conditions in the language."

"In that case, what Master Jiraiya said seems to make some sense. When we were fighting the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, we accidentally discovered that the tiger-skin masked man possessed an illusion that could release magic to control the Jinchūriki. Is it possible that Itachi could use illusions to control the tailed beasts, so he could devour them? After all, if a tailed beast is devoured, it will struggle violently."

Chapter 45 The Son of Prophecy Found in Advance

Uchiha Itachi used illusion to control the tailed beast?

So the tailed beasts didn't struggle? They were eaten by the owner of those eyes?

Jiraiya immediately thought of the battle report of the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Grass Village that the old man showed him. He picked up the teacup, then put it down, then picked it up again. He repeated this action seven or eight times. His face became sad, and then he looked at Seto Chihiro with burning eyes. The gratitude, confusion and suspicion in his eyes made Seto Chihiro wonder if there was something wrong.

However, Seto Chihiro did not say anything on her own initiative. She just picked up a few potato chips and started eating. Then she widened her eyes and responded with an equally confused look.

He was clearly leading Jiraiya in the wrong direction. How wrong was this direction? It was as explosive as when the Sage of Six Paths appeared before Jiraiya and told him that he intended to destroy the ninja world.

"Chihiro, I originally thought you were just a child, but I didn't expect you to think so deeply. Although we have found the person who destroyed the ninja world, we have not found the child of prophecy yet."

Seto Chihiro was silent for a while: "Master Jiraiya, I don't know who the child of prophecy is. The ninja world is so big, if it's just a pair of green eyes, it would be too difficult to find it."

Jiraiya frowned slightly, reflecting a little hesitation: "The Great Toad Sage actually told me that the children of prophecy will become my disciples. Even if the prophecy changes, this matter will not change. I'm sorry Chihiro, I accidentally concealed this news just now."

"???"

[Ding~ System prompt]: [Congratulations to the host for completing 'The Fate of the Ninja World']

[Reward: 3000 points, current remaining points: 7530]

Only then did Seto Chihiro realize that the system prompt was ringing in her ears. She looked at Jiraiya with dissatisfaction, thinking, isn't it just a prophecy? Is it necessary to hide it like this?

In fact, it was not that Seto Chihiro did not notice that the task was not completed, but the content of this conversation with Jiraiya far exceeded the reward of the system, so that he put all his attention on Jiraiya.

"Master Jiraiya, this is actually your fault. Tsunade is my only teacher, and I have already said that I will not betray my teacher. I didn't expect that you would hide such important information."

Jiraiya coughed to hide his embarrassment: "Aren't you afraid that if you find the wrong person, it will affect the future of the ninja world? After talking with you just now, I found that you are extraordinary. You are so smart at such a young age. You will definitely achieve something in the future. In addition, you have never lived in Konoha before. Maybe you have seen the child of prophecy?"

Seto Chihiro nodded in a solemn manner: "That's true. I already have some thoughts about the child of prophecy that Master Jiraiya mentioned."

"Oh? Tell me."

"But Master Jiraiya, I have one condition."

"...Well...just tell me your guess first. If it can really give me some inspiration, I don't mind agreeing to your terms."

"Master Jiraiya, won't you listen to my conditions?"

Jiraiya smiled confidently: "Boy, I have been looking for the child of prophecy in the ninja world for a long time. It is related to the safety of the ninja world. As long as you can really help me find the child of prophecy, what's the harm in agreeing to your request?"

Seto Chihiro was stunned. This was true. Jiraiya's life was firmly trapped by the so-called prophecy. Helping him find the child of prophecy was like lighting a bright light for him in the dark sea.

"Then let me first tell you my request. My Wind Style Rasenshuriken is about to be completed, but I hope that Master Jiraiya can help me see if there are any areas that need to be improved. During the period of improvement, Master Jiraiya will definitely discover the process of releasing this ninjutsu.

Tsunade-sama specifically reminded me before I left that this ninjutsu should not be easily leaked. At that time, I am willing to hand over the detailed release method of this ninjutsu to Jiraiya-sama, but Jiraiya-sama must also give a ninjutsu of equal value for the transaction. "

"Is this what you are asking for?"

"That's my request."

"Kid, there's nothing wrong with this, but I just saw you learning the hard vortex water blade of the Second Mizukage. Konoha is not like the Hidden Grass Village, where you have trustworthy companions. Can you tell me why you're working so hard?"

Seto Chihiro gritted her teeth and raised her head with a serious expression: "Master Jiraiya, have you ever encountered a tailed beast? Master Tsunade is the last of my clansmen. At that time, the Three-Tails almost hit Master Tsunade. At that time, I was very lucky that I had the power to stop it from happening. But when facing Uchiha Itachi, I could only passively defend myself."

"Perhaps if my Wood Release was stronger at that time, I could have stopped Itachi from slaughtering Mikoto-sama's people at the border!"

After listening to this, Jiraiya instantly understood and roughly knew Seto Chihiro's mentality at the moment.

Because he successfully protected Tsunade from the attack of the three-tail, but failed to protect his important companions from the attack of Itachi. The strong contrast at that time made him feel entangled...

But he himself did not react. If he had not been there that night, the rest of the Uchiha clan would probably have been killed by Uchiha Itachi... What a little brat!

Jiraiya shook his head. He was a little envious of Tsunade, but also a little happy for her. Perhaps the appearance of this little guy would help her feel better.

"Master Jiraiya, you promised me that you would exchange ninjutsu when the time comes."

Jiraiya came back to his senses and raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Well, don't worry, I am Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, and I will not lie about such things. Tell me your speculation about the child of prophecy quickly."

Seeing this, Seto Chihiro jumped off the chair, tiptoed to the door, opened a gap, turned around and waved to Jiraiya, motioning him to come over.

Mikoto had already cleaned up the room, and she and Shizune were organizing the ingredients in the kitchen. Ayana walked out of the kitchen carrying plate after plate of vegetables, and Izumi was preparing a recipe. A unique aroma was wafting through the living room.

The distance from the living room to the entrance was very noisy, and Ino's voice was the loudest, directing others to practice tree climbing on the walls on both sides of the entrance.

Sasuke and Naruto were unwilling to give in to each other, so they rushed towards the wall at the same time, stepped on the wall at the same time, and then fell down at the same time, making a creaking sound on the floor.

After looking at Jiraiya for a few seconds, Seto Chihiro pulled Jiraiya back to the room.

"Does Master Jiraiya understand?"

"What do you want to see clearly? What's there to see clearly? Aren't those little ghosts having fun?"

Seto Chihiro clicked her tongue and sighed.

The answer was right in front of Jiraiya, but he didn't even know it was the answer. What else could he say?

"Master Jiraiya, didn't you notice that Uzumaki Naruto's eyes are green?"

"Now that you mention it, I finally realize that the little brat does have blue eyes, but that doesn't mean anything, right?"

"Yes, Naruto's blue eyes don't mean anything, but Master Jiraiya seems to have forgotten about Sasuke beside him, right?"

"Sasuke? Itachi's brother?"

Seto Chihiro put on a serious expression and analyzed word by word: "That's right, Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto might be the people that Master Jiraiya is looking for."

"Why do we say that brothers destined to be together will become good friends? Because maybe they don't have any blood relationship from the beginning. Sasuke and Naruto just don't have any blood relationship."

"Why do you say they learned from each other and have the same moves? It could be that they went to the same school, so the moves they mastered are very similar. It could also be that after you met them, they all mastered the same moves under your teaching."

"Why do you say that the elder brother would leave the younger brother? The reason is very simple, because Sasuke wants to seek revenge. Itachi once cast an illusion on Sasuke, allowing Sasuke to see the scene where his people were slaughtered by Itachi. So, since he is older than Naruto, he will go for revenge."

"And the most crucial point is, why can the blue-eyed boy play with the nine tailed beasts? Before asking this, I would like to ask Master Jiraiya a question."

At first, Jiraiya thought that this kid was shooting in the air and had empty fantasies.

Because what this kid said was too coincidental. He had been looking for the child of prophecy for about 20 years. Is it possible that he could find them all just by casually returning to Konoha?

But as I listened, I felt that this was still very possible!

"Spiritual summoning technique. Toad mouth binding technique!"

"..."

In the room, pink pieces of flesh continued to seep out from the walls, sofa, table, and bed, wriggling like a caterpillar until it enveloped the entire room.

Seto Chihiro slowly withdrew her gaze and looked towards Jiraiya.

"Don't be afraid, little boy. This is the inside of the Iwasukuni Toad. Although I don't know what you want to ask, the following conversation must not be heard by others. You can ask relevant questions now." Jiraiya stood up and clapped his hands.

"I want to ask Master Jiraiya, after this summoning technique is lifted, my room won't be corroded, right?"

"???"

Jiraiya looked up and found Seto Chihiro showing disdain, and occasionally dodging the stomach acid falling from above: "Don't worry, kid, because the Rock Toad is too big, I can only summon a part of it each time. There is a chakra barrier between this stomach and the outside, and it will not have any impact on your room after it is removed."

Seto Chihiro immediately spoke up: "Then I'm relieved. What I want to ask is, Uzumaki Naruto is Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, right?"

"how do you know?"

Jiraiya was slightly startled, and looked Seto Chihiro up and down again. He thought that if Tsunade had not been very sure that this was a member of the Senju clan, he would have thought that this was a member of the Nara clan.

but...

Even the Nara clan wouldn't be able to possess such incredible analytical abilities.

Jiraiya thought of Shikaku's childhood appearance, and after comparing it with the brat in front of him, he immediately judged the difference between the two. "You are right, Naruto is Konoha's Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, you should not spread this matter around... Wait... What you mean is!"

Seto Chihiro nodded calmly: "Naruto may be the only one in the entire ninja world who has green eyes and may be related to the tailed beasts. In addition, from my observation of Naruto during school, it is rare for a single person to have such a sincere heart."

Jiraiya swallowed, feeling like it all made sense.

"Why do you say Sasuke is another child of prophecy? Although I have never seen a bright blue giant, I have seen a bright orange giant... I will never forget the ninjutsu Itachi used that night - Susanoo! So far, only Susanoo can explain the bright blue giant."

"But there are still some strange things. Sasuke had already defeated Susanoo, so why was the ninja world still destroyed by Itachi in the end?"

"Could it be another Uchiha? Wasn't there said to be a man with a tiger mask?" Jiraiya put forward his own idea.

Seto Chihiro blinked her eyes. She didn't expect that Jiraiya would draw inferences from his example and directly throw dirty water on the tiger-masked man.

"You're right. This is indeed possible. After Sasuke defeated Itachi, that guy took Itachi's eyes and replaced them with his own. So this also explains why the ninja world was still destroyed by the tiger masked man after Sasuke left Naruto to seek revenge."

As time passed, Seto Chihiro and Jiraiya gradually determined who the child of prophecy and the person with red eyes were.

Strangely enough, after Jiraiya removed the stomach of the Iwasukuni Toad, there were no signs of corrosion in the room, not even any strange smell.
