Madara, let's change the world together!

"Even though we are a married couple, we still need our own time and space."

Also.

Jiraiya took a deep breath.

Since there's nothing to reminisce about, let's get straight to the point.

"Yuan, do you know about the Rinnegan?"

Chapter 287 Probing and Speculation

This question isn't what it sounds like literally.

There was no sign of anything amiss on Kiyoshi Gen's face.

"Of course I know, the bloodstains of the three great dojutsu of the ninja world are legendary."

"Byakugan, Sharingan, and the Rinnegan, which is said to be possessed only by the Sage of Six Paths."

This answer?

Jiraiya glanced at Kiyoi Gen's eyes and probed in a casual tone.

"I've heard that someone with the Rinnegan has appeared in the ninja world."

"Moreover, it is very likely related to the Akatsuki organization."

Sure enough, they learned some information about Madara through some channel and wanted to test him.

Kiyoshi Gen was not surprised; he controlled his facial expressions very well.

"The Rinnegan sounds like something that's far removed from ordinary people, and the Akatsuki is also a well-known mercenary organization in the ninja world."

"Do you have any specific intelligence?"

"Knowing in advance will allow me to prepare countermeasures."

Jiraiya remained silent for a second.

"No, all I know is that the Rinnegan has appeared and that the Akatsuki organization is very suspicious."

According to the Great Toad Sage, Kiyoi Gen has a close relationship with the Rinnegan user, indicating that Kiyoi Gen is clearly hiding something.

Should we expose their lies?

If we expose it, will anything unexpected happen?

What if things develop into a hostile situation?

Too many concerns

When it came time to honestly ask the other person, Jiraiya couldn't bring himself to say it.

He had to consider the cost of doing so.

Perhaps Kiyoi Gen, who treated his people well and was the most outstanding lord, was deceived by the Rinnegan holder?

No! With Kiyoshi's wisdom, it's impossible to deceive him on important matters.

The most likely scenario is that he and the Rinnegan user each got what they wanted, and the two had a cooperative relationship.

As a powerful master, Qingjingyuan possesses material, human, and financial resources.

Those who possess the Rinnegan, on the other hand, have absolute martial prowess.

When both sides complement each other, that truly becomes the strongest force.

The strongest force?!

Jiraiya used the act of drinking to conceal that he was thinking, but he couldn't stay calm when he thought about the conclusion he had reached.

Merchant guilds spread throughout the ninja world, sheltering war orphans from all over, and building such a magnificent city.

Most of those guards are people who can refine chakra, so could they be like the Five Great Villages, keeping a large number of ninjas?

The more Jiraiya thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Famous lords and nobles often kept ninjas.

However, most of them could only support wandering ninjas or ninjas from small ninja villages because they didn't have enough money.

The daimyo, being at the pinnacle of nobility, often kept the most powerful Jonin (high-ranking ninja).

For example, the daimyo of the Land of Fire kept twelve guardian ninjas, one of whom was a ninja from Konoha.

Kiyoi Gen's wealth and personal charisma far surpassed those of the nobles he knew. Just those he had dealt with, such as Kiyoi Ai, Kazasa, and Kenpachi Zaraki, all possessed extremely strong abilities.

It is highly likely that Kiyoi Gen's power has reached a point where it can threaten the Five Great Ninja Villages.

It's unimaginable what it would be like if there were still Rinnegan users supporting it!

Even though Jiraiya believed that Kiyoi Gen was a lord who loved his people dearly, he began to doubt Kiyoi Gen's motives.

Was his display of benevolence and righteousness for a deeper purpose?

We must ask directly!

This is a matter concerning the entire ninja world, and we absolutely cannot be careless about it!

"Boom!"

Kiyoi Gen saw Jiraiya place his wine glass on the table with a solemn expression, the sound crisp and clear.

Are you going to ask?

He restrained the restless shadow.

Knowing most of Jiraiya's methods, he was confident that he could emerge unscathed even if a conflict arose.

"source"

You mean the source is here?

Both people in the private room heard the rather loud words, and they were very familiar with the speaker.

"There was also a white-haired man wearing a headband with the character 'oil' on it."

Tsunade and Kushina exchanged a glance, and the other girl shut her mouth and didn't say anything.

Unexpectedly, I just planned to find a place to drink and chat, but I ended up knowing the female owner of the first izakaya I found. She was a patient I had treated before.

Furthermore, the other party knew that she and Kiyoshi Gen were lovers and husband and wife, so they reminded her that Kiyoshi Gen was here.

It's amazing that the boss recognized him. She knew that when Kiyoshi Gen went out, he would either use illusion magic to change his appearance in the eyes of passersby, or he would disguise himself to some extent.

Kiyoi Genzai was present, and she was also very familiar with the image of another white-haired man, Kushina.

It's best not to let the other party know that Kushina lives here.

Kushina said goodbye to Tsunade using lip reading and then left.

"source!"

What's Tsunade doing here!

Neither Kiyoi Gen nor Jiraiya expected this unexpected situation to occur, causing Jiraiya to swallow back what he wanted to say.

The door to the private room was opened.

Jiraiya's eyes widened instantly.

She had long, beautiful light blonde hair, a fitted long-sleeved blouse and pencil skirt that accentuated Tsunade's voluptuous figure, slightly thick black pantyhose that made her hips look even more beautiful, and high heels.

Tsunade actually wears clothes like that?!

She's more feminine and charming than ever before!

Jiraiya was stunned, his mind blank.

"Jiraiya, you're here too."

Tsunade sat down next to Kiyoi Gen without any hesitation.

She gently fanned herself with her hand.

It's currently the transition from spring to winter, and the temperature is low, but you can still feel a bit hot if you walk for a while.

If there were no other men besides Genji around, she could unbutton her shirt to cool down, but with that pervert Jiraiya around, she couldn't do that.

I didn't care when I was single, but now that I have a husband, I should be more careful.

"How can you drink without inviting me?"

Tsunade took Kiyoi Gen's arm, a bright smile on her face.

So Tsunade can do this too?

Jiraiya wore an expression of utter devastation, his heart aching.

In the end, I missed it again, and twice at that.

Kiyoi Gen looked at Tsunade's face with a puzzled expression.

Is this a deliberate attempt to provoke someone?

[Quickly, tell me, what brings Jiraiya here?]

You didn't just meet with him alone for casual conversation, did you?

Tsunade wrapped her arms around Kiyoi Gen's left arm, their hands clasped together.

"Pour me a glass of wine."
