Living your daily life in a shonen anime seems to be wrong.

So, the war was started because these harmful publications were burned? What a bizarre excuse for starting a war.

Jiraiya also found this excuse bizarre and hard to accept.

"So even so, you can't start a war."

"I already said it wasn't me who started it."

"Who else could it be but you?"

"I'm wandering all over the world, how could I possibly start a war? Besides, I've already said that the Land of Waves and the Land of Water brought this on themselves. Don't you know that my doujinshi are military supplies? Don't you know that all the money from selling doujinshi goes to the military expenses of the Land of Snow's army? You've touched their purse strings, of course they'll fight you to the death."

Qi Ye shrugged.

Anyway, he wasn't drawing the book for money; he was doing it to spread his faith.

So he didn't care about the money he earned at all. Back in Konoha, he would just throw it away in some corner or pile it up in the money box to let it get moldy.

Upon arriving in the Land of Snow, the money earned was used as military funds.

After all, the Land of Snow is poor, so every little bit helps.

However, even Nanaya himself didn't believe that the Land of Waves and the Land of Water were actually burned.

Anyway, it's definitely just a show that they directed and acted in themselves.

Upon hearing his words, Jiraiya had nothing more to say.

Anyway, judging from this, it seems that Qiye won't take responsibility for this.

Besides, on the other hand, with Qiye constantly traveling around the world, it's really unlikely that he would be planning this war.

So who did it?

Scratching his head, Jiraiya felt a little confused.

Was it an unauthorized action by radicals from the Land of Snow? Or was it an order from the Daimyo of the Land of Snow?

However, dwelling on this point is no longer important.

"I said, Seven Nights, couldn't you stop it?"

"If it's going to rain, it's going to rain; if a mother wants to remarry, she doesn't care."

Qi Ye waved his hand, indicating that he couldn't be bothered to pay attention.

He'd rather avoid such troublesome matters than get involved.

Seeing this, Jiraiya could only sigh.

It seems that this war can only end when a victor is determined.

Alternatively, we could contact the major ninja villages in advance, explain the situation, and ask them to put pressure on the Land of Snow to force them to stop the war.

That's feasible.

But after looking at Nanaya, Jiraiya decided to give up.

I learned from Kakashi that Nanaya and the Daimyo of the Land of Snow have a very good relationship.

What if the daimyo of the Land of Snow suffers injustice and goes to Nanayaichi to complain, leading Nanayaichi to intervene in the war...

Then there's no need to consider it; the Land of Snow will definitely oppose the entire ninja world.

Putting everything else aside, Qi Ye is already a headache to deal with, and there are also quite a few people helping him.

For example, Tian Tian's father.

When they join the Land of Snow with a large amount of money, it will be able to raise the overall national strength of the Land of Snow to a new level.

Furthermore, it seems that Shichiya can teach many people how to use Sage Mode.

He glanced at the two little girls following behind.

He was confident that he hadn't misjudged the situation; the two little girls who had followed Qiye away from Konoha for several months had already learned Sage Mode.

"It was a huge mistake that the old man failed to keep Qiye!"

Jiraiya sighed inwardly.

Danzo, who had secretly smeared Nanaya and forced her to leave, was also becoming more impatient.

If it weren't for that guy, Shichiya wouldn't have been forced to leave.

Now it's a real problem.

Although Shichiya doesn't seem to care, and his relationship with Konoha is still quite good.

But Shichiya is definitely on the side of the Land of Snow.

If the Land of Fire and the Land of Snow were to clash, it goes without saying that Nanaya would side with the Land of Snow.

"Um……"

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya remembered it again.

It seems I received some news that the daimyo of the Land of Waves went to the Land of Fire for help.

Surely the daimyo of the Land of Fire wouldn't be so foolish as to want to get involved in the war?

It's not impossible, considering how close the Land of Waves is to the Land of Fire; a bridge could connect the two countries.

The fact that the Land of Snow has occupied this place is like having a bridgehead, allowing them to garrison large numbers of troops in the Land of Waves and launch an attack on the Land of Fire at any time via the bridge.

To prevent such a thing from happening, the daimyo of the Land of Fire will probably think of striking first and taking advantage of the Land of Snow's unstable foothold in the Land of Waves to directly send troops to reclaim the Land of Waves.

That's so stupid.

"It seems I should remind Tsunade to persuade the Daimyo."

Jiraiya made up his mind.

However, we can't do that now; we need to take care of the matter in Otogakure first.

At this moment, Qi Ye also spoke up.

"Speaking of which, we've been gone for so long, where's Naruto? Where's Sakura? Where are they?"

"Ah, I don't know either. We clearly told them to wait outside the town... Where did they go?"

"I heard Naruto Uzumaki really likes Sakura Haruno. What if he takes advantage of your absence, gets carried away, and drags Sakura to some secluded place..."

"Hey, can't you think a little healthier?"

"You, who write erotic fiction, have the nerve to say my thoughts are unhealthy?"

"You, who just draws sketchbooks, dare to say your thoughts are healthy?"

"I've already said that doujinshi is a belief, and belief is justice, therefore doujinshi is justice!"

"..."

Chapter 89: Critical Hit

Jiraiya and the others walked to the place where they had parted ways with Naruto and the others.

Instead of seeing Naruto and his group, they found several abandoned shuriken and kunai.

It's obvious that something has happened.

So Shichiya made a decision immediately.

"Well, Aunt Tsunade is calling me home for dinner, so I'll be going now."

Without giving Jiraiya a chance to react, he took Tenten and Hinata Hyuga and left.

Jiraiya's eyes turned into dead fish eyes as he stared blankly at the departing figures of Nanaya and the others.

Tsunade called him home for dinner...

Why not just say you don't want to get involved in troublesome things? And then you go home for dinner...

Did Tsunade ever invite him to dinner?

"Really."

Shaking his head helplessly, Jiraiya could only go and search for Naruto and the others.

Qiye didn't care about any of that.

Going to Orochimaru's base or something, that's no fun.

It might involve fighting or doing all sorts of messy and troublesome things, which would make it even less fun.

The Land of Fields is also a country with a relatively good environment.

After leaving the residential area, the road was lined with shady trees.

However, some hilltops are completely bare, and I don't know why; there seems to be no vegetation on them.

Although it's the end of the year and winter, it's not cold, just a bit chilly.

In cold places, perhaps only the land of snow and the land of water exist.

The Land of Water also has many places where it snows all year round.

Walking slowly along the road, Qi Ye would occasionally stop to pick up stones and other objects from the roadside and examine them carefully.

Perhaps they are researching something.

Time slipped away quietly as we walked and stopped.

By noon, we had reached the foot of several mountains, where the vegetation had become sparse.

"Okay, let's rest here for lunch."

After walking around for seven nights, she decided to rest.

Although we didn't get very far in half a day, there's no need to rush when traveling.

In addition, Shichiya also needs to gather intelligence, including information on some mineral resources.

These hills are bare; who knows, they might contain some mineral veins.

After all, there is green grass and trees everywhere, but these few hills look bare and out of place.

"Then I'll go prepare lunch."
