Chapter 265: I Just Conceal a Little Thing, Why Don’t You Believe Me?
After seeing Konan, Jiraiya was a little dizzy.
However, Jiraiya quickly regained his senses. His eyes gradually became more vigilant. He stared at Konan, who was in the air, “You’ve really grown up. You’ve also become more and more beautiful, Konan…”
After saying this, Jiraiya’s expression suddenly sank. He asked sternly, “I never thought that you would join Akatsuki. What exactly is going on?”
“It’s just what Naraku said.”
Konan slowly manipulated the white paper to form a pair of paper wings on her back. She whispered, “The world has already become like this. It’s useless to say anything now. Naraku, there’s no need to say more. Move back a little.”
“Sensei, don’t be too anxious!”
Uehara shook his head and said softly, “Anyway, Jiraiya-sama can’t escape here. At least let him know some truth before he dies, right?”
Hearing Uehara’s words, Jiraiya couldn’t help but look at him, “You little brat… you really look down on people!”
Konan looked at her student and teacher with some hesitation. She then shook her head gently and said, “Naraku, there is no benefit in saying more. It will only waste your rest time here…”
“Ha, you really dote on your student!”
Jiraiya couldn’t help but rub his chin, and the corners of his mouth revealed a smile, “I didn’t expect that the little girl from back then would also become a Sensei! It’s a pity that the student you taught really is not what it looks like, Konan!”
Uehara, “…”
This sentence was clearly mocking Konan, but it also attacked him, right?
“Jiraiya-sensei.”
Konan’s eyes narrowed as she stared at Jiraiya, her voice filled with stubbornness, “Naraku is the most perfect ninja in this world.”
“Is that so?”
Jiraiya looked at Uehara with a smile and then looked up at Konan. He said seriously, “But I also thought that my student was the most perfect ninja in the world. Whether it was you, Yahiko, or Nagato… But that was the former you.”
Jiraiya’s voice gradually calmed down. He whispered, “I always thought that you guys died in the war. I never thought that you were still alive and became like this. You became the murderer who destroyed the village and killed innocent people…”
“Then you’ve misunderstood Konan-sensei.”
Uehara interrupted Jiraiya. He pointed at himself with his finger and narrowed his eyes; he then smiled, “Jiraiya-sama, since I joined Akatsuki, Konan-sensei rarely paid attention to Akatsuki.”
Uehara smiled and continued, “All along, I was the one who destroyed Sunagakure; I was also the one who destroyed Kirigakure, and I was also the one who destroyed Iwagakure…”
After saying this, Uehara’s smile deepened. He smiled and continued, “In the future, I will destroy k.u.mogakure, and I will also destroy Konohagakure…”
“…”
Jiraiya suddenly changed his expression.
Uehara was the first kid to say that he would destroy Konoha in front of him. It didn’t sound like a lie at all, but more like an actual declaration of war!
“What, you don’t believe me?”
Uehara rubbed his forehead and couldn’t help but whisper, “I was just hiding something. Why do you feel like you can’t trust me anymore?”
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
Jiraiya clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes gradually became sharp, “Is this all your doing again? Is it all because of you?”
“No.”
The corners of Uehara’s mouth slightly curved up, revealing a smile, “Akatsuki’s organization has now become like this; we have to thank your Konoha!”
“…”ƒ?ee?????ν?l. ?o?
Jiraiya’s eyes gradually became sharper.
There seemed to be something that he did not know about.
Uehara looked at Jiraiya and said with a chuckle, “Why don’t you let me tell a long story,
I hope this story won’t disappoint Jiraiya-sama. Twenty years ago, I should have been born not long ago at that time, right?
At that time, an organization named Akatsuki appeared. The leader of Akatsuki was one of the three students of Jiraiya-sama, one of Konoha Sannin. Their dream was to mediate all the wars in the Ninja World. This dream seemed to be both naive and great, right?”
“…”
Jiraiya’s expression was slightly moved.
At this moment, he also remembered the actions of the leader of the three little guys, Yahiko. It was indeed a great and naive idea. How could the five big countries in the Ninja World pay attention to the mediation of a small organization?
Uehara looked at Jiraiya and continued with a smile, “But many people believe them, including a man who abandoned his wife and son. More and more people joined Akatsuki, making the power of the Akatsuki organization stronger and stronger.
This power quickly attracted the attention of two people. One of them was called Hanzo because this power threatened his position in Country of Rain;
The other person’s name was Danzo because Akatsuki and his group of naive people wanted to mediate the war. And unfortunately, Konoha needed war.”
“Danzo!”
Jiraiya’s face slightly sank.
After hearing this name, Jiraiya felt a little bad in his heart. Was this Danzo guy a sh*t stirrer?
b.a.s.t.a.r.d!
There must be Danzo’s doing if there was any trouble in Konoha!
“It seems that you know the result!”
Uehara looked at Jiraiya’s expression and said with a smile, “In the past, Jiraiya-sama used three years to smooth out a person’s hatred for Konoha. But Danzo only took one day to revive this hatred.”
“… So that’s how it is?”
Jiraiya raised his head with a complicated expression and looked at Konan, “So Danzo and Hanzo joined forces to attack you… Who died in their hands? Was it Nagato?”
After saying that, Jiraiya seemed to be sure of this matter. He said in a low voice, “So Yahiko transplanted Nagato’s Rinnegan and established a terrorist mercenary organization that accommodates the traitors and captures Bijuu, am I right?”
“…”
Konan shook her head in silence.
When Jiraiya saw Konan shake her head, he glanced at Uehara, “Brat, what is your goal? Even if you have hatred, you should control your hatred…”
“If it were just for revenge, the hatred should have ended long ago.”
Uehara interrupted Jiraiya and said with a chuckle, “Eight years ago, we ambushed Hanzo at the same place. Four years ago, Danzo mysteriously disappeared in Konoha. Konoha should have been curious at where he went, right?”
“…”
A hint of surprise gradually appeared on Jiraiya’s face. He recalled the time before and after Danzo disappeared. He immediately guessed the truth.
“You killed Danzo?”
“Yes.”
Uehara rubbed his forehead and said softly, “I used the death of the Third Hokage as a lure to make Danzo obediently appear in front of me. His body was treated as a gift for Sensei when I returned from my trip to Konoha.”
“…”
Konan’s face was a little ugly. She seemed to have thought of some bad experience. She remembered the strange gifts that Uehara had brought for her.
Explosive Blade – Shibuki.
Mutual Multiplying Explosive Tag.
Danzo’s corpse.
Konoha’s Scroll of Seal.
Jiraiya’s face was obviously even uglier. He thought of another bad thing, “You little brat, you were really good at pretending at that time! Even we would never suspect you!”
A carefree smile appeared on Uehara’s face, “Who would suspect a person who signed an agreement with Danzo and fulfilled his promise… would be the murderer who killed Danzo? If not for Konan-sensei, I wouldn’t have bothered with that dirty guy.”
In fact, killing Danzo was an excellent move.
Even Uehara had to admit that the reward he received after killing Danzo was really generous. Just the Dark Harvest’s skill alone had given him a huge profit. Otherwise, he would probably still be doing system missions to find this skill.
In terms of personal feelings, Uehara should have cut Danzo into pieces; but in terms of morality, Uehara should burn more paper money for him…
He also had to burn more for Hanzo.
After all, these two had helped him take a lot of blame.
In this case, he should also burn some for Obito and Orochimaru. These two guys also took a lot of blame and were also cheated by Uehara for a long time.
However, Obito was already an Impure World Reincarnation, and Orochimaru’s soul was still in Ryuchi Cave, so there was no need for this.
Jiraiya stared at Uehara tightly and said with a gloomy face, “Little brat, you can hide so deeply. You are really scary!”
“Really?”
Uehara narrowed his eyes and continued to ask with a smile, “Jiraiya-sama, why don’t you guess why I didn’t continue to hide it from you?”
“Because you want to kill me.”
Jiraiya clenched his fist, and a mysterious smile flashed across his face, “Speaking of which, it’s really ironic. A member of Akatsuki actually led the other Ninja Village to attack Akatsuki.
A person who wanted to destroy Konoha actually saved Konoha; the person who destroyed Sunagakure was actually Sunagakure’s benefactor; the person who destroyed Kirigakure was sitting at the table as Kirigakure’s allies.”
Jiraiya slowly raised his head and looked at Konan in the air. He sighed faintly and said, “What’s more ironic is that the teacher, who should be the gentlest in the world, actually taught a ninja who wanted to destroy the world.”
Obviously, Jiraiya was referring to Konan.
In Jiraiya’s impression, Konan had always been the little girl who silently supported her friends behind her back. Now, she had gone astray because of hatred, and she had even brought a disciple like Uehara, who had worked so hard to destroy the five great ninja villages.
This world was really twisted.
However, Jiraiya’s mood had changed now. The only thing that made him feel pity was that he did not know whether the person who died that year was Yahiko or Nagato.
Because Konan just shook his head and denied that Yahiko had transplanted the Rinnegan…
Or did both of them die?
In addition to finding out Pain’s ident.i.ty, there was no need to continue investigating the other truths because he already knew enough.
As long as he found out Pain’s ident.i.ty, he must immediately flee from Amegakure.
Originally, Jiraiya had thought of risking his life on the road of no return to solve the problem of Konan and Yahiko, who had gone astray. Now that he knew about their tragedy, his mind had changed a lot, especially after finding out so much information.
The most important thing now was to bring the news back to Konoha.
Every piece of information was very important, and every piece of information would change the situation in the Ninja World.
Unfortunately, just as Jiraiya began to plan a strategy, another figure quietly appeared on the high ground. He lowered his head and looked down at everyone present. He frowned and asked, “Uehara, Konan, have you not dealt with him yet?”
Chikushōdō(Animal Path) has arrived.
