Becoming a Ninja from Naruto

Chapter 158 Orochimaru!
This is an unforeseen situation.

No matter what, the people present would never have thought that the leader of the Akatsuki organization would suddenly call out Jiraiya's name and even call Jiraiya his teacher.

"you…"

"How can it be…"

Jiraiya's pupils widened subconsciously.

Because the enemy in front of him had messy orange hair and a somewhat familiar young face, but his face was decorated with nails.

How familiar...

Yet how strange it is!
Jiraiya tried his best to recognize the other person's appearance, but the Rinnegan and the other person's temperament made it impossible for him to recognize the other person's identity no matter what.

Or…

Jiraiya couldn't believe it.

The enemy standing in front of him looked so much like his dead disciple Yahiko that it even made him a little dazed for a moment.

In that country where it always rained, he once accepted three disciples, and soon received news that the three disciples had died in the war.

"Look... familiar?"

Tsunade frowned subconsciously and thought about it.

Because she had also met Jiraiya's disciple Yahiko.

"Yes…"

Jiraiya's heart subconsciously tightened, and he took a deep breath before finally asking the other party as if to confirm: "Yahiko... is that you?"

"Teacher actually still remembers me..."

Pein's eyes fell on Jiraiya, and he said calmly: "I thought you could only recognize me when the two of them appeared together..."

"them?"

Jiraiya's brows immediately frowned.

next moment!
Two figures have appeared beside Payne.

When Pain's true identity was exposed, there seemed to be no special need for Nagato and Konan to hide, or it could be said that at this time Nagato no longer wanted to hide.

because…

They no longer have the burden.

Nagato is no longer the real controller of the Akatsuki organization, and he doesn't have to care about exposing his true identity in the ninja world. He is no longer the most important person.

"Long time no see...Sensei Jiraiya."

Nagato stood behind Pain, reached out and took off his gas mask, revealing a head of bright red hair, and his expression still seemed a little reserved as before.

"haven't seen you for a long time…"

At the same time, Konan's figure fell behind Payne, and she slowly took off her gas mask, revealing her tied light purple hair.

Three people...

Three former disciples...

They seemed to have traveled through time and stood in front of Jiraiya again, allowing Jiraiya to finally clearly identify them at this moment.

My own disciples...

It turned out to be the leader of Akatsuki!
Jiraiya felt dizzy for a moment. The toad from Mount Myoboku had clearly given him a message that these three disciples had already died!

"It's those three brats from the Rain Country!"

A look of disbelief also flashed across Tsunade's face.

"Jiraiya, Tsunade, do you know each other?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but look back at Jiraiya and Tsunade, hoping to get information about them from Jiraiya.

"It's more than just knowing each other."

Tsunade's eyes couldn't help but become a little complicated. She turned her head slightly to look at Jiraiya, who still had a look of shock on his face, and explained softly: "During the Second Ninja World War, Jiraiya accepted the three of them as his disciples..."

This mentor-apprentice relationship...

In fact, it is more troublesome than a strange enemy!

Tsunade looked at her companion and couldn't help feeling sad for him. The disciple who was once close to her had now become her enemy.

"Jiraiya..."

"Jiraiya's disciple..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression gradually became serious.

Because he remembered the scene when his disciple Orochimaru defected. Perhaps he is now the only person who can understand Jiraiya's feelings!

"Yahiko, Nagato, Konan."

Jiraiya adjusted his breathing, and the mentality of a mature ninja allowed him to quickly wipe away the sadness in his heart, leaving only suspicion and cold questioning.

"What is going on? How did you join the Akatsuki organization full of traitorous ninjas? And how did Yahiko become the leader of the Akatsuki organization?"

"Is there anything wrong?"

Pain stood in front of Nagato and Konan, just like Yahiko shielding his companions from the wind and rain, and resisted his teacher's questioning of them.

"Jiraiya-sensei."

"Our idea has always been to change this world full of war and killing. The current Akatsuki organization can help us realize this ideal."

"Wait…change the world?"

Jiraiya's body suddenly trembled.

This ideal...

It doesn’t seem strange at all!
Because Yahiko once wanted to change the world and mediate and end all wars. It is not surprising that Yahiko, who suffered from war as a child, had this idea...

but…

Jiraiya's mind subconsciously recalled the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage and Emiya Shihara's prophecy about the child of prophecy.

Do not…

Not good!

Compared to the resurrection of these disciples...

What made Jiraiya even more panicked was that Emiya Shihara's words had come true.

The prophecy of the great toad immortal...

A child will appear in this world who will bring change to the world, and he will accept that child as his disciple and guide him onto the right path.

Emiya Shihara's prophecy...

As he accepted disciples one by one, these disciples developed ideas to change the world. They would kill each other for their own ideas, until finally the only child who met the prophecy of the great toad immortal appeared...

"What are you going to do?"

Jiraiya looked at his disciples, hoping to ask them what they thought, and also wanted to ask questions about the Akatsuki organization: "I heard something about the Akatsuki organization. Now the Akatsuki organization is gathering those dangerous and rebellious ninjas in the ninja world. It doesn't seem like they want to change the world through peaceful means..."

"No comment."

Payne shook his head and refused to explain further.

Because he is not the real decision-maker of Akatsuki, he can no longer rely on his own ideas to decide whether to leak information.

only…

Nor would he hide another thing.

"Anyway..."

"That is something Jiraiya-sensei would never accept."

"You, who were born in the great ninja village of Konohagakure, always expect people to understand each other. You will never understand the means by which we want to change the world..."

Past mentors and apprentices...

It was already destined to be on the opposite side.

"Get out of the way."

Pein raised his hand and said calmly: "Teacher Jiraiya, we don't want to kill you, nor do we want to hurt more innocent people here..."

This is a sincere statement.

They came only to kill Danzo Shimura.

This is the mission left for them by Emiya Shihara and Black Zetsu, and it is also their own goal of revenge. They really do not intend to hurt more people at this time.

after all…

The leader of Akatsuki organization does not kill innocent people indiscriminately.

Even the other party has always been a medical ninja who saves people in distress.

however…

Payne's concession will not bring about a peaceful ending.

When their identities were truly exposed, they would not be able to leave Konoha easily no matter what, especially since Jiraiya was not the one who could make the decisions on the spot.

"Hokage-sama..."

The Fourth Kazekage Rasa glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said with a smile: "Although our two villages are in great need of capturing the leader of Akatsuki to obtain intelligence, it seems that Konoha seems to have a great connection with Akatsuki! The agreement between Sand Village and Konoha needs to be torn up again. Should we make way for them?"

"Jiraiya, you step back first!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked solemn, and waved his hand to signal Jiraiya to withdraw from the battle between master and disciple. The old man still looked at Pein fiercely: "Leave it to me and Kazekage to handle this..."

Nature…

There is no way they will give in!

This opportunity is really rare, they must capture the leader of Akatsuki, even if he is Jiraiya's disciple, even if it will make Jiraiya feel dissatisfied, as the third Hokage of Konoha, for the future safety of Konoha, he must capture him!
If Jiraiya were allowed to participate in the battle, if this disciple gave in during the battle between master and disciple like he did in the past, they would have no choice but to watch him leave!
however…

Jiraiya didn't seem to be about to back down.

The tall and strong man looked at his disciple bitterly, shook his head and rejected his teacher's suggestion, not wanting to withdraw from the battle.

after all…

Both sides of the battle are important people in his life. No matter which side wins, it will be painful for him.

the most important is…

This itself is also his responsibility.

As a teacher, I have the responsibility to guide my disciples. I should not step aside at this time and watch everything happen, or even let the elderly teachers and other companions who can rely on me for life and death to deal with it!
What's more...

The extraordinaryness of the Samsara Eye...

Perhaps he is the only one who understands it best.

Because only I, who have personally experienced the power of the Rinnegan, know more about it, while Nagato and Yahiko in front of me both possess the Rinnegan.

Although I don’t know why…

But they should be able to use some of the abilities of the Rinnegan.

This battle…

It seems that things are very dangerous for Konoha.

If Nagato and Yahiko both mastered the Samsara Eye like Emiya Shihara, my withdrawal might put Sarutobi Hiruzen and Tsunade in danger...

"Aren't you going to back off?"

Payne looked at Jiraiya ready for battle, his voice a little regretful and melancholy: "That's right, this is Jiraiya teacher..."

"pity…"

"This is an unwise and reckless move."

"If Jiraiya-sensei had really seen the power of the Samsara Eye, he would have known that you would be powerless against it..."

"..."

Jiraiya's expression hardened.

Because he knew that what the other party said made sense.

At least he was completely powerless in the hands of Emiya Shihara. Perhaps even if he brought Tsunade and Sarutobi Hiruzen to fight together, he might not be able to win...

but…

The battle in this world...

Often it doesn’t happen because of winning or losing…

"Then let's get started!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his palm!

The old man took the lead in launching the attack, his fingers quickly forming the hand seals of the ritual, because he had also learned the lesson he had just learned, and was not reluctant to share his experience and lessons with his disciple and teammate Luo Sha who was fighting with him!
"Use ninjutsu first!"

"Be careful of the opponent's repulsive force that can send both us and our magic flying!"

"That's the power of the Rinnegan!"

Jiraiya also shared the information about the Samsara Eye. While making hand seals, he looked at his disciple with a heavy gaze and explained the source of his information: "When I was sparring with Lord Emiya, he also used this move. It can instantly launch a repulsive force that can deflect all attacks..."

"Attack in stages."

The Fourth Kazekage Rasa's voice grimly proposed a method of combat, which was to counter the repulsive force through staggered attacks among the team members!

"..."

A look of surprise appeared on the faces of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Tsunade and Jiraiya at the same time.

Because the three of them, the master and his disciples, also wanted to propose this echelon combat method at the same time, but they didn't expect that the Fourth Kazekage Luosha would be so in tune with them...

"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen took the initiative to spit out a ball of flame in the direction of Pain and the other two!
"Sealing Technique Absorbing Seal!"

Nagato leaped out and stood in front of the flames, raised his hand and transformed Sarutobi Hiruzen's Fire Dragon Flame Bullet into pure chakra and absorbed it into his body!

In the face of his power...

No one can hurt Pain and Konan behind them!
If the cascade attack is effective against Pain, it will never have any effect on him, a true user of the Rinnegan technique!

"careful!"

Jiraiya looked at Nagato who stood up, his expression becoming more and more serious, and he spoke in a deep voice about the ability of this disciple: "This is the ability of the Samsara Eye to absorb the technique. During this period, any technique released will be absorbed by Nagato and turned into chakra..."

"Is the ninjutsu ineffective?"

Tsunade swung her fist and smashed it!

If the ninjutsu attack is ineffective, then her taijutsu will not be ineffective!

Pieces of origami flew out!
When Tsunade took action, Konan also took action at the same time!

Konan raised her palm, and pieces of origami wrapped with detonating tags flew towards Tsunade, as if they were going to blow Tsunade's body off!
this moment…

Tsunade only had time to spread her Yin Seal all over her body. At least her Yin Seal and the sealless self-healing in the curse seal mode should be able to block the explosion of these detonating tags!

"Wind Release·Cyclone!"

At this moment, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa suddenly put his fingers together, opened his mouth and spit out a gust of wind, which instantly blew all the origami high into the sky!
This wind escape technique easily broke Konan's technique and instantly rescued Tsunade from the troublesome situation.

"Thank you, Master Fengying."

Tsunade's figure quickly landed on the ground again.

have to say…

Luo Sha’s move was extremely crucial.

This made Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya feel more favorable towards this Kazekage. At least it seemed that this Kazekage really wanted to fight together with them.

"Thank you..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thanked the Fourth Kazekage Rasa in a deep voice.

"It's ok."

The Fourth Kazekage Luosha accepted the thanks with a smile and said softly, "After all, we are allies who need to rely on each other. However, we haven't yet used that strange repulsive attack, so it seems unlikely that we can attack the opponent's body..."

"This battle can't even be called a warm-up..."

"Does that make you feel relieved?"

Just when the Fourth Kazekage Rasa and the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to discuss tactics again after a wave of attacks failed to force out the strange repulsion moves, Pain's voice fell into their ears, making them alert at the same time!

however…

This vigilance is meaningless!

Payne raised his hand towards them with an indifferent expression and uttered four words calmly, as if he was just releasing an ordinary spell.

"Shenra Tianzheng."

next moment!
The density of the air was suddenly compressed instantly by the repulsive force!
The entire ground began to tremble violently under the pressure of repulsion!
All the Konoha ninjas present saw an astonishing scene at this moment!
This time…

Payne had no intention of holding back!
Shinra Tensei's power is almost at full strength!

Half of the field tiles in the entire stadium were pushed up by Pain's repulsive force in an instant, and Shinra Tensei left a barren plain on the ground like a plow!
Before Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others could react, their bodies were instantly knocked away by this powerful repulsive force, and some even fell halfway out of the venue. They began to spit blood before they could land on the ground, and it was obvious that they had been severely injured by this move!
"Psychic art!"

Tsunade, who was the least injured among them, quickly formed a summoning seal after landing. She was able to judge the injuries of others based on her own injuries!

A pitch-black summoning magic circle suddenly fell to the ground, summoning a huge slug. The slug looked at Tsunade, who was spitting blood, with some surprise in its tender and gentle voice!
"Tsunade-sama..."

"Slug, treat them first!"

Tsunade hurriedly pointed at the few people who were also seriously injured!

Her body must be the strongest among everyone present, so she can react in time under the huge impact of this Shinra Tensei!
"Yes!"

The slug's body instantly broke into pieces!
When the two clones of the slug crawled to Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya and wrapped their bodies in it to heal them, they also detected their physical conditions.

“No life-threatening situation…”

The slug clone's gentle voice put Tsunade at ease.

"Cough cough cough..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya coughed at the same time. They felt the treatment of the slug, but they did not feel as relaxed as they imagined.

because…

The enemy is a little too strong!

Although both of them had not yet used their full strength in this battle, they were both severely injured before they could even use their full strength!
"Look at the injuries of Master Fengying..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen reminded Tsunade.

In the battle just now, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa came to the aid of Tsunade, and Konoha could not sit idly by and watch this sincere ally get seriously injured.

"I've asked the slug to help..."

Tsunade's palm was covered with green chakra. She looked at the injuries on Jiraiya's body and said in a deep voice, "I'll ask Lord Emiya to help..."

"It's better not to let that big shot come over..."

A familiar yet unfamiliar cold voice suddenly appeared in Tsunade's ears.

"?"

When Tsunade was still a little confused, the voice of another slug clone made her heart suddenly rise!
"Lady Tsunade! This is..."

When Tsunade looked back, she saw the Fourth Kazekage Rasa lying in the distance with his body shriveled up. This scene made her heart sink.

It’s not because of Luo Sha’s death…

But this move is very similar to that of her former teammate.

"This is... the Great Snake Style Substitution Technique..."

Tsunade remembered with some horror the voice she had just heard. She looked around slowly in disbelief, but did not see Orochimaru.

however…

Tsunade also noticed another thing...

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya had blood flowing from the corners of their mouths, but they ignored their injuries and sat up at the same time, looking nervously behind her!

“What a pity…”

"You didn't even recognize me..."
