Little Goku's Great Adventure Starting from One Piece

Chapter 344 Sincerity is the Ultimate Weapon

"Huh? Where am I?"

Inside the enclosed space, Wukong looked around in amazement.

He didn't resist when he listened to Jiraiya's words, and then he found himself being sucked into this strange space.

"This is inside the toad's belly," Jiraiya replied.

"Inside a toad's belly?! We've been eaten?!" Upon hearing this answer, Wukong's eyes widened instantly, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"No, no, no!"

Jiraiya quickly waved his hand.

"This is the barrier toad I summoned. If we hide inside, we won't be discovered by those people, and we can leave without anyone noticing."

Wukong blinked, scratched his head, and said, "Although I don't quite understand what you're saying, it doesn't sound dangerous."

"Of course! With me, the Toad Sage, here, how could there be any danger!" Jiraiya said, tossing his long, flowing white hair with a cool air.

Wukong remained silent, tilting his head and staring at him with a blank, innocent look. His pure, innocent eyes seemed to say:

No danger? But you almost died before, sir.

Jiraiya caught a glimpse of Goku's expression out of the corner of his eye, and his face immediately froze.

In the quiet space, the two stared at each other, neither saying a word.

After a long while, Jiraiya finally broke the awkward silence, raising his fist to his mouth: "Ahem, young man, thank you for saving me earlier."

Even now, he still feels a bit dizzy. He had prepared himself for death, but unexpectedly, he was saved at the last moment. Even he finds it hard to calm down after such a dramatic turn of events.

"It's alright, uncle. Oh, by the way, my name is Sun Wukong, what's your name, uncle?" Wukong asked with a grin, holding his head.

As if a switch had been flipped, Jiraiya suddenly straightened up, striking an exaggerated pose and loudly proclaiming, "Good question! I am the peerless handsome man loved by all, admired by every woman, the Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku!!"

Deng Deng Deng!

As he delivered his impressive introduction, it was as if background music started playing at just the right moment.

Wukong looked on in astonishment: "Uncle, is your name really that long? And also, uncle, are you an immortal? You must be incredibly powerful!"

He had just met Master Korin not long ago. Although Master Korin seemed to be weaker than him in his perception, Master Korin had helped him reach the temple and given him a very powerful Senzu Bean. So in his opinion, Master Korin was quite powerful.

Since this uncle in front of me calls himself a sage, he must have something unique about him, just like the sage Karin!

Jiraiya was about to blurt out that he was of course very powerful, but at that moment, he remembered that he had been beaten to death by Pain, and that this boy had not only witnessed this scene, but also saved him.

His face flushed red, and he quickly coughed, "Cough cough! No, no, I'm not that great. My name is Jiraiya, you can just call me Uncle Jiraiya."

"Okay, okay, Uncle Jiraiya." Goku nodded obediently.

After the introductions were completed, Goku pointed to the sky and said, "Uncle Jiraiya, when are we going to leave this place? The auras of those people from before are already far away from us."

If observed from the outside, one would see that the toad summoned by Jiraiya is swimming forward along the sewers of Amegakure, quite a distance from where Pain had been.

"Don't rush, we're not completely out of danger yet." Jiraiya glanced at Goku with some surprise.

At this distance, even he couldn't detect the presence of Pain's Six Paths; he could only judge the situation through the toad's eyes. Yet this boy could do it, which shows he has excellent perception.

"Oh, okay then." Although Wukong didn't feel there was any danger, since the uncle said so, he would just listen to him. Anyway, he wasn't in a hurry.

"Sun Wukong, um... I'll call you Wukong. You're probably not from Amegakure, are you?"

After a few seconds of contemplation, Jiraiya looked at Goku and suddenly asked.

Although Goku appeared in Amegakure, judging from the other person's clothing and the information revealed in his words, the other person was probably not from Amegakure, but someone who had infiltrated Amegakure like him.

But why would someone like that expose themselves to save him? And the way the other person asked his name and reacted when they heard it didn't seem like they knew him at all, which made it even stranger.

A person who infiltrated Amegakure with a certain goal exposed himself while trying to save a stranger.

Although Jiraiya was grateful to Goku for saving him, given the tense situation in the ninja world, he had to be extra careful to avoid falling into some unknown trap.

Just as he asked Wukong in a seemingly relaxed tone, but actually with a certain degree of caution, waiting for Wukong to give a thoughtful explanation.

Goku readily admitted, "Amegakure? Of course not. Why would you ask that, Jiraiya-san?"

Jiraiya was somewhat bewildered.

Don't you know why I'm asking this? You appear in Amegakure. Besides being a member of Amegakure or someone who isn't from Amegakure, what other identity could you have?

After thinking for a moment, he asked again, "Wukong, let's be frank and open with each other. I want to know why you rescued me from Pain? Is there anything you need me to do?"

He is a person who always repays kindness. Goku saved him from the clutches of the King of Hell, and if Goku needs his help in any way, he will try his best to help as long as it does not harm Konoha.

But when Wukong heard his question, he blinked blankly and said, "I didn't need you to do anything. I just saw you were about to die, so I saved you."

In the previous situation, he would save whoever was about to die. If Jiraiya was about to kill Pain, then the person he would save would be Pain.

Jiraiya frowned upon hearing his reply.

Is this boy still testing me, unwilling to tell me the truth?

But I couldn't see anything deliberate in his expression and tone. He didn't seem to be lying. What's going on?

Just as he was racking his brains trying to figure it out, Wukong suddenly remembered something and clapped his hands: "Oh right! I did have a question I wanted to ask someone about before."

A glint flashed in Jiraiya's eyes. So, they really need my help. Hmph, I knew my all-knowing Jiraiya-sama couldn't possibly be wrong!

"Please speak, I will answer you if I know the answer." He pretended to be all ears.

"Mmm." Wukong nodded.

"Uncle Jiraiya, I'd like to know where we are right now?"

Although the location wasn't very important, he wanted to figure that out first since he was new to the world.

Jiraiya, who had been listening intently, bracing himself for some very important question, was suddenly dumbfounded: "Huh?"

I've already taken my pants off, and this is what you give me?

He twitched his lips and said, "We're almost out of Amegakure now, and we'll be completely safe in a little while."

"Amegakure? So that place was called Amegakure before." Goku nodded in sudden realization.

Jiraiya stared intently at his completely unfeigned expression, his heart filled with conflicting emotions.

Is this kid acting like me, or acting like me, or acting like me?

Looking at Goku's youthful face, which was even a few years younger than Naruto's, Jiraiya sighed inwardly and decided to ask directly instead of playing along with Goku's act.

"Wukong, kid, just tell me what you need me to do. Stop using these lame lies. Do you think I'm stupid?"

Wukong asked疑惑地, "I really don't need you to do anything, and I didn't lie to you about anything, so why are you asking this?"

Jiraiya shook his head, then revealed his true intentions: "You say you don't know where this is, don't know Amegakure, then explain why you're in a village that's isolated from outsiders?"

"I don't know how to answer that question either. Actually, I come from another world," Wukong said, scratching his head.

Jiraiya was taken aback: "Another world? What do you mean?"

"Um... I'm not from this world. I don't know how I got here. A voice told me to take me to another world, and then I found myself here."

Wukong explained earnestly, though it was a very convoluted explanation.

"You, you must be joking?" Jiraiya was stunned.

Rain-Hidden Village.

After Jiraiya and Goku disappeared, Zetsu, wearing a pitcher plant-shaped cloak, slowly emerged from the ground.

.

"I never expected such an unexpected situation to occur," said the white Zetsu on the left side.

"What did that brat feed Jiraiya?" The black Zetsu on the right side asked in a chilling tone.

He had never heard of anything like this in the thousands of years he had been lurking in the ninja world, something that could instantly restore a person on the verge of death to their full strength.

If we're talking about a similar ability, then only the Uzumaki clan's healing ability exists. However, while the Uzumaki clan's healing ability is very powerful, it cannot instantly revive someone who is on the verge of death like it did just now.

"I don't know. I mean, aren't you curious about this kid's identity? I don't see him wearing any headband, so he doesn't seem to be from any ninja village," White Zetsu chuckled.

Pain glanced at them and said coldly, "No matter who he is, he can't hinder our plan, even if he rescues Jiraiya."

"Hehe, that's right. Didn't Lord Madara ask you to capture the Nine-Tails? I think you should act quickly," White Zetsu said softly.

"I will do it without you reminding me."

After a sincere conversation, Jiraiya finally began to accept that Goku came from a world that did not belong to the ninja world.

He stroked his chin and exclaimed, "This is truly unbelievable. I've been traveling the ninja world for so many years and I've never heard of anything like it."

He had thought that Wukong was an actor whose acting skills were so natural that even he couldn't see any flaws. He never expected that the truth was even more bizarre than that. Wukong actually came from another world.

"Yes, when I first heard about this, I was just as surprised as you were, Uncle," Wukong said, holding the back of his head.

Jiraiya was still pondering this matter when suddenly his eyes lit up and he looked up at the sky.

"It seems we can leave here."

In a stream thirty kilometers away from Amegakure Village, a toad clung to the bank and came ashore.

The next second, with a loud bang, the toad disappeared, replaced by Goku and Jiraiya.

"Phew! I'm finally out. I was almost suffocating in there." Facing the cool, natural air, Jiraiya stretched and greedily inhaled the fresh air.

Wukong lay down by the stream and took a delicious sip of the river water.

"Ah, it's so cool."

As Jiraiya stretched, he casually asked, "By the way, Goku, there's something I've never understood. How did you manage to pull me out of that state? I think you stuffed something in my mouth back then?"

Goku wiped the water from the corner of his mouth and replied without much thought, "I saved you with Senzu Beans."

"Senzu beans? What are those?"

"It's something that Master Korin gave me. As long as you eat it, you can restore your strength and recover from your injuries. Here it is." Goku took off the bag containing Senzu Beans from his waist and casually tossed it to Jiraiya to look at.

Jiraiya paused for a moment, then opened the bag and saw two bright green beans lying quietly inside.

"Senzu beans, there are such strange things in this world." He muttered to himself, but then, as if remembering something, he shook his head.

"No, this wondrous object doesn't belong to our world; it's something that only exists in your world."

He looked at the two Senzu Beans with a complicated expression. Was his life just saved by these things? It was unbelievable.

Then, he looked at Wukong and asked solemnly, "Wukong, you gave me something so precious so casually. Aren't you afraid I'll steal it, or even kill you to take it?"

Goku paused for a moment, looked at Jiraiya, and scratched his head: "I feel like you're not a bad person, Uncle Jiraiya."

Then he added with a grin, "Besides, if you need it, I can give it to you. I don't need this kind of thing right now."

Looking at the boy's innocent and naive smile, Jiraiya fell silent.

He asked himself honestly, if it were him, he would never have presented something that would cause countless people to suffer heavy losses in front of someone he had only known for a short time and whose background he knew nothing about.

It's even less likely that it would be given to someone else.

"Listen, Wukong, don't tell anyone else that you have this thing except me."

After a silence of about ten seconds, Jiraiya tied the bag tightly, then threw it back to Goku and looked at Goku seriously.

"Huh? Why?" Wukong caught the bag, somewhat puzzled.

"Because this is something so precious that it drives countless people crazy, exposing it to others will bring you enormous trouble," Jiraiya said solemnly.

If he weren't a person with principles, and if Goku weren't his great benefactor, he would have had a hard time guaranteeing that he wouldn't have evil thoughts about the Senzu Beans.

After all, having a Senzu Bean is like having an extra life.

"Oh, okay." Goku nodded. Although he didn't think the existence of the Senzu Beans would cause him any trouble, he could sense Jiraiya's goodwill, so he chose to accept the other's suggestion.

Anyway, when he doesn't need to save people, he won't take the Senzu Beans out and talk about them everywhere.

After this exchange, Jiraiya basically believed Goku's previous explanation of the other world and also let down his guard against Goku.

He thought that such a naive boy, who possessed such a treasure, was easily harmed after coming to this strange world alone, especially since the boy had saved him in front of Pain, which meant he had definitely fallen into the Akatsuki's sights.

Although the Akatsuki organization did not know what Goku had fed them, seeing that scene, they must know what extraordinary thing it was, and they would likely send people to investigate and track Goku.

Since that's the case, having been saved by Wukong, he certainly can't sit idly by and must protect Wukong as much as possible.

So he suggested, "Goku, you must be unfamiliar with everything since you've just arrived in this world. If you'd like, would you like to come with me to Konoha? That's the village where I live. Oh, by the way, my disciple Naruto is there too. He's not much older than you. I think you'll definitely be able to become friends with him."

Wukong blinked and nodded happily: "Okay."
