Naruto: I'm Not a Pokémon

In the end, I guess he will only choose a few more practical core ninjutsu to learn.

"Alas, it looks like we will be busy on the rest of the journey."

……

Fire Nation battlefield.

Kannabi Bridge.

The ancient country of Loulan.

The land of grass.

The land of rain.

……

In three months, Jianchuan Ju almost traveled across most of the ninja world.

Even in the last two months, Jianchuan Ju never returned to the front-line camp once, and he relied entirely on Qing to support him.

Until once again, as agreed, he lifted the spiritualism every day to exchange information with Qing.

"Is this an important mission issued by the village? Looks like we have to go back!"

Jianchuan Ju straightened the bone mask on his face and muttered to himself.

Rainwater flowed down the grooves on both sides of the mask.

"Hey, Ju. What are you doing there? Come over here and help."

In the distance, an orange-haired young man with a hearty smile shouted loudly. Even the rainy weather could not conceal his cheerful and sunny temperament.

The orange-haired young man walked towards Jianchuan Ju carrying a huge wooden beam, and stretched out his hand as if to pull up Jianchuan Ju who was sitting on the stone.

"Yahiko, I have to leave."

"ah----?"

The orange-haired young man in front of him was none other than Yahiko, the leader of the first Akatsuki organization and a disciple of Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas.

However, after hearing Jianchuan Ju say that he was leaving, Yahiko did not have the calmness of a leader at all. He threw the huge wooden beam directly to the ground, splashing a lot of water, and opened his mouth as wide as possible, constantly shouting in surprise.

"What happened?"

Several ninjas wearing black robes and Amegakure forehead protectors heard Yahiko's call and hurried over.

Seeing that Yahiko was still dumbfounded, Jianchuan Tachibana had to explain himself.

"Nothing, I just told Yahiko that I was leaving."

“Ah——?”

Well, now there are even more people who are stunned.

Jianchuan Ju looked at these with a dark face. They looked like they came out of a comedy cartoon and he was powerless to complain.

Fortunately, at this time, a blue-haired girl came out from behind and looked at Jianchuan Ju with a worried look on her face.

"Ju, are you really leaving? Why?"

The person who spoke was Konan, another disciple of Jiraiya.

Jianchuan Ju just shrugged when he heard this.

"I've said this before I joined Akatsuki. I'm not a ninja from the Rain Country. I joined you recently only because I appreciate your philosophy."

"But I still have my own identity, and now is the time to return."

Chapter 258 Xiao

"But."

Konan seemed to want to say something, but Yahiko, who had come to his senses, stopped her.

At this moment, Yahiko's expression returned to seriousness, and he seemed to finally act like a leader. He looked at Jianchuan Tachibana and spoke with a tone of retention.

"Have you thought about it, Ju?"

Looking at Yahiko's serious expression, Jianchuan Tachibana said with a smile.

"There's nothing to think about. This is a decision I made before I joined Akatsuki. I told you about it back then. But I didn't expect that the time would be so short."

Looking at the Akatsuki members around him, Jianchuan Ju still felt a little emotional.

"And I am different from you. I fundamentally do not believe that peace can be achieved through dialogue."

"If you, Yahiko, had the power of the Ninja God Senju Hashirama or even the Six Paths Sage, the five great nations would really sit down and listen to you. In the end, the ninja world still has to rely on fists to speak."

"The reason I joined is because people like you who have ideals and are pure are indeed worthy of admiration, so I want to witness it in person."

In fact, Jianchuan Ju had said this to Yahiko more than once, but now that Jianchuan Ju mentioned it again when he was about to leave, it seemed to sound even more harsh and profound.

only.

"You little brat! You're trying to be cool again!"

"That's right! Isn't it the uncles like us who should say this?"

"Everyone, come on and fight him!"

I don’t know who started it, but the noisy chatter broke the heavy atmosphere.

Even Yahiko, who had originally had a serious expression on his face, put on a smile again and joined the team chasing Jianchuanju.

Only Konan and Nagato were standing in the rain, watching the others playing in the field with a smile.

"It's a pity. Ju is a very good partner."

"There's nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone has his own path to take."

The two seemed to have just mentioned it casually, and then fell into calm again, as if the people playing in the rain were the most beautiful scenery in the world.

After saying goodbye to the rest of the Akatsuki organization, Jianchuan Tachibana once again faced Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato, the three founders of Akatsuki.

"Ah, I originally thought I would just say hello to Yahiko and leave quietly. But this guy made such a big noise with his shout."

"What are you talking about? Even if we leave, we are still partners. Of course we should say goodbye properly."

Seeing that Yahiko seemed to be about to start yelling again, Jianchuan Tachibana immediately ended the topic with a headache.

He turned to Yahiko and said.

"Yahiko, remember what I told you before? Hanzo is not trustworthy. He is old, and his desire for power is more important than anything else. Hanzo will not allow any forces that are not under his control to exist in the Rain Country."

Jianchuan Ju pointed to his forehead and said.

"Although you have been wearing the Rain Village forehead protector, there will be a battle between the Akatsuki organization and Hanzo. Unless you are willing to disband and obey Hanzo, don't think about negotiating."

"Uh, it shouldn't be that serious, right?"

At this moment, Yahiko, or most people from the Rain Country, still have a certain degree of filter for Hanzo who was able to resist the invasion of the Fire, Earth and Wind Countries and maintain the independence of the Rain Country.

However, Jianchuan Ju reminded again.

"You don't want Konan or Nagato to die because of your naivety, do you?!"

"I see!"

This time Yahiko seemed to have really listened to him, and his expression no longer had a playful look.

Jianchuan Ju then turned to look at Nagato. "Be careful about what I told you before."

Nagato did not speak upon hearing this, but nodded solemnly.

Finally, Jianchuan Ju looked at Xiaonan with sadness in his eyes again.

"Sister Xiaonan, you will have to take care of these two idiots in the future. Thank you for your hard work."

"Ah! What are you talking about, little brat? Who's the idiot?!"

When Yahiko heard this, he immediately rushed forward with his teeth bared, but another idiot, Nagato, quickly caught him.

It's not like Yahiko hasn't fought with Jianchuan Tachibana before. In a one-on-one situation, his own leader is really no match for this guy who is younger than them.

Seeing this, Jianchuan Tachibana just shrugged his shoulders, ignoring Yahiko who was being tightly hugged by Nagato.

After saying hello to Xiaonan, he turned and walked out of the village.

But at this moment, Yahiko from behind called him back.

"Hey, Ju! We're about to say goodbye, do you still want to wear the mask?"

Jianchuan Ju paused, but slowly turned around, reached out to take off the bone mask on his face, and gave the three people a brilliant smile that was very similar to Yahiko's.

"Let me introduce myself to you again. I am the Jōnin of the Hidden Mist Village, Tachibana Kanegawa. Nice to meet you all."

Jianchuan Ju placed his right hand holding the mask in front of his chest, leaned forward slightly, and made a somewhat exaggerated greeting gesture, which made the three people smile.

Although the Hidden Mist Village is one of the five major ninja villages, it is located overseas and very far away from the Hidden Rain Village. It is obviously more acceptable to Yahiko and the other two than the three ninja villages that have been invading the Rain Country for many years.

Jianchuan Ju put the mask back on his face, thought for a moment, and then spoke to remind the three people.

"If a person always wears a mask and dares not take it off in front of you, then you must not believe anything he says."

"Tsk, you're trying to be cool again!"

Yahiko looked at the departing figure of Jianchuan Tachibana with a sour look, but Nagato, who was standing beside him, nodded thoughtfully.

As for Jianchuan Ju himself, he walked to the edge of the village, then stopped and looked back in the direction of Yahiko and others from the Akatsuki organization.

"Don't die."

After saying that, Jianchuan Ju chose to leave without any reluctance.

The entanglement in my heart was also let go.

"Whoo~"

In fact, when Jianchuan Ju first found Yahiko and others in the Land of Rain, he came for Nagato's Rinnegan.

By "drawing", Jianchuan Ju can easily get the pair of eyes that countless people dream of.

However, Jianchuan Ju was not sure whether he could subdue or kill Nagato directly in the event of a rampage, and he was not sure whether Nagato's transplanted eyes could be recognized by "Painting".

But later, after a period of contact, seeing the pure idealists of these three people, Jianchuan Ju began to hesitate to do it.

I even considered whether I should kill Nagato, and then use the 'Resurrection Prayer' to revive him after the 'drawing' is completed. Although it is a waste of resurrection ability, even if I can't get the 'Rinnegan characteristics', I should be able to get the 'Uzumaki clan's physical characteristics'.

However, the new abilities obtained in the next two draws still made Jianchuan Ju inclined to give up this somewhat risky idea.

'The system panel is as powerful as these local plug-ins. There is no need to give up your bottom line.'

Although my bottom line has always been quite flexible, there is no need to go against my conscience.

Thinking of this, Jianchuan Ju touched the new emblem on his arm again.

"And with this, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with Obito."

Chapter 259 Special Operations

Although Qing didn't say what happened, since it was a formal order for Jianchuan Ju to return as soon as possible, he couldn't delay too much.

After leaving the Land of Rain, Jianchuan Ju directly activated the "Wings of the Wind" and took off.

Including the rest time to recover strength, it took less than two days to return to the Whirlpool Island camp.

Before Jianchuan Ju landed, he noticed a large number of Konoha-dressed ninjas heading towards the west of Whirlpool Island from the direction of the front-line camp.

Mitomon En and Nara Shikaku, whom I had met last time, were among them.

"Are you here to negotiate again? How long has it been?"

The Konoha ninjas who left the front-line camp did not react excessively when they saw the figure of Jianchuan Tachibana flying low over the sky. They just raised their heads and stared for a moment before leaving very calmly.

Jianchuan Ju touched the mark on his arm somewhat awkwardly, and also did not take the initiative to provoke the other party.

After returning to the camp, Jianchuan Ju simply greeted the members of the Air Force who were providing logistics support, and then quickly walked towards the commander's tent where Qing was.

"Teacher Qing, I'm back."

Qing looked up at Jianchuan Ju who walked straight into the tent, and a trace of fatigue appeared on his face.

"It's good to be back."
