The Death of Jiraiya, the War Begins

The moment his chest was pierced, Jiraiya's thoughts were unusually calm.

The blood in his body did not flow out, but was vaporized by Ryūjin Jakka's high temperature.

Jiraiya lay in the sand and slowly sank into the gravel.

His consciousness began to dissipate, and he vaguely saw the back of Naruto leaving.

It was said that people would fall into memories before they died.

Jiraiya was no exception.

He remembered everything in the past.

He knew his companions, but he was rejected when he pursued Tsunade.

He took Yondaime as his disciple, but in the end, Yondaime defected.

His closest friend defected, but he could not stop it.

His closest disciple defected, and he could not stop it.

The people he loved were troubled by the development of Konoha, but he could not share too much of his worries.

He had been chasing after the prophesied child all his life, but he had pushed the son of prophecy to defect again and again.

Compared to the great achievements that Hokage had achieved in the past, everything he had done was not worth mentioning.

So sad.

He had also thought that he would die heroically like the past Hokage. As for whether the story was brilliant or not, it could only be determined by the ending.

Although my life was a life of failure.

But at the very least... I should die as a great Ninja.

Haha, to die from having my heart pierced while escaping, this kind of death is really shameful.

I didn't expect this to be the final song of Jiraiya's heroic speech.

How boring.

Sasuke, just like you said, abandon the prophecy that binds you and truly do what you want to do.

With your pride, your kindness and dedication, you will definitely have a final decisive battle with Naruto.

Proud to fight for your own justice, this is what you endure.

I am very happy that you can walk your own path.

I also believe that you will definitely defeat Naruto.

Because you are my most proud disciple.

Sasuke, you give up Uchiha's determination and courage, which is admirable...

As for me, as your Sensei, how can I give up so easily?

This time, I will die as Jiraiya.

I will carry out the justice in my heart.

Just as you said.

Give up all restraints!

Jiraiya was dead.

But he stood up.

His heart had stopped and his bodily functions had stopped, but he still stood up.

Shinobi world could no longer live in misery.

Someone had to stand up!

Defeat Naruto!! Sasuke!! You can definitely do it

Jiraiya reached out his hand shakily and left a precious message behind the back of Sage who had rushed over to him.

"How tenacious, Sensei. Even in death, you still have to leave a message of death?" In the distance, Naruto glanced at the place where Jiraiya died and then revealed a contemptuous smile.

"I will not stop. I will continue to become stronger. The message of the past is meaningless."

The confident Naruto did not intercept.

"I will bring it to Sasuke." Fukasaku Sage took a deep look at Jiraiya, his eyes already wet.

Hearing this, Jiraiya could rest in peace.

Recalling Sasuke's proud smile, he also smiled.

Sasuke, there is no doubt that you are the real prophesied child.

Abandoning Uchiha's identity and carrying out your own justice, you will bring true peace to Shinobi world!

But I am sorry, I may not be able to see that scene.

When He returns to the heavens, the heavens will not welcome me, Mount Myōboku!

The dragon returns to the sea, the sea does not welcome me, Jiraiya!

The hero, Jiraiya, finally dissipated in the yellow sand.

This kind of final chapter could be considered decent.

It was almost time to put down the pen in his hand.

By the way, what should I use for the title of the sequel?

How about...

Sasuke spoke!

Well, this is not bad.

Just as Jiraiya sank into the yellow sand, Sasuke, who was sitting by the lake in the distance, suddenly felt someone pat his shoulder.

He turned around in a daze, but there was no one there, only the birds singing, the fragrance of flowers, and the two children playing in the distance.

"Lord Sasuke, what's wrong?"

"Lord Sasuke, why are you crying?" The two little kids looked over and immediately cried out in alarm.

"Tears?" Sasuke touched his face in frustration, but found that it was already covered in tears.

His heart was even more empty.

Inside Seireitei.

"I'm sorry, Lord Naruto. I didn't protect Seireitei well." Both Haku and Shion had heavy expressions on their faces.

"The enemy this time is indeed too strong. It's not your fault." Naruto looked at Kyubi expressionlessly with dissatisfaction in his eyes. "But you, Kyubi, are too lazy. Your foundation is the best and you can completely comprehend Bankai, but you are addicted to playing and neglected your cultivation."

"I know, it is my problem. I will cultivate well next." Kyubi's face was ugly, and his eyes were full of dissatisfaction.

Relying on his status as a tailed-beast, after becoming Shinigami, he even had a huge Reiatsu, but he was completely defeated by the six paths of Pain.

It was not an exaggeration to say.

Kyubi should be the most powerful among all of Seireitei. The powerful Chakra was transforming into a huge Reiatsu. All he did was to familiarize himself with Reiatsu, and with a bit of cultivation, he might be able to comprehend Bankai.

However, the salted fish Kyubi had neglected his cultivation, and he had not even completely mastered his own Reiatsu.

However, after the invasion of Pain this time, Kyubi had already deeply recognized his weakness and began to train hard.

He returned to the Pure Land and continued to cultivate Zanpakutō's ability under the puzzled gazes of Adjuchas, hoping to one day master Bankai or even Hollowfication.

Kyubi's efforts indirectly stimulated these Adjuchas.

If even Kyubi, who was stronger than them, was working hard, then what reason did they have to be lazy

For Adjuchas, joining the Pure Land, Hollow's Night Palace was undoubtedly his biggest dream.

Therefore, Kyubi and Hollow became more hardworking.

In addition to Zabuza, there were also several Adjuchas who stood out.

Several months after Jiraiya's death, Seireitei was still in silence. Under the escort of Minato, Orochimaru and Kakashi, all the residents of Otogakure successfully entered Seireitei.

Seireitei's air was fresh and fresh, and at the same time, it would continuously wash their bodies.

In less than half a year, these residents would be completely transformed into spirits.

After settling everything, Orochimaru also brought his capable assistant to the laboratory of the Great Prince.

Kaguy Kimimaro.

He was the holder of Kaguya Clan's "Shikotsumyaku". He could freely control the bone bud cells and the broken bone cells. He could even control the calcium concentration to form the ability of bones.

But this powerful Kekkei Genkai would bring incurable blood disease.

Now, Kimimaro's body was on the verge of collapse.

Becoming Shinigami was the only way for him to live.

There was no time for Kimimaro to be like the other residents of Otogakure, becoming a soul in the process. Right now, he could only inject medicine.

Looking at Kimimaro who was lying on the experimental bed, who trusted him very much, Orochimaru revealed a gentle smile, holding a syringe in his hand.

"Relax, the transformation is only a matter of time."

"Do you want to take it orally? Or inject it?" Orochimaru asked in a relaxed manner.

Serum and injection had the same effect. If it was used on its own, it was naturally recommended to be consumed.

This was because it was very easy for a newbie to directly stab himself to death by injecting himself.

"Orochimaru sama, you choose."

After getting Kimimaro's answer, Orochimaru went to the experimental bed, gently inserted the syringe into Kimimaro's neck, and pushed the potion into it.

"Goo!" The potion instantly worked. Kimimaro widened his eyes, and his consciousness became blurry. Memories of the past appeared in his mind.

Some were sad, some were happy.

White smoke appeared, continuously swirling around.

When Kimimaro opened his eyes again, he had successfully become Shinigami.

At this point, Seireitei's power had once again increased.

At the same time, all of Seireitei's top combat power was gathered on Seireitei.

They were angry with the attack that Seireitei had suffered before, and decided to work even harder to cultivate.

After Orochimaru completed Kimimaro's transformation, Naruto found Orochimaru and told him his doubts.

Akatsuki's goal was to capture the Biju. Their goal of gathering the Biju was currently unknown, but it could be imagined that it was definitely not a good thing.

Hearing this, Orochimaru frowned, indicating that he did not understand the secret of the Biju, and secretly hinted at the Spirit World.

From the beginning of human existence, the spirit world has always existed, and beings like the White Snake Sage and the Toad Sage have had long lifespans.

They would definitely know a certain amount of information.

After understanding, Naruto decided to go to the Spirit World and ask Toad Sage about Shinobi world's secrets.

Fortunately, he did not kill Fukasaku and Shima, so there was still room for reconciliation with Mount Myōboku.

After Seireitei was defeated, Nagato quickly rushed toward Akatsuki's base. His heart was full of disbelief and anger.

He did not expect that Naruto's strength had actually reached that level.

The Pain that could directly kill him.

Although the Pain had completely exhausted himself after using Super Shinra Tensei, from the strength that Naruto displayed, even the complete Pain was definitely not a match for Naruto.

Even if he went into battle, he might be at a disadvantage.

Moreover, the most fatal thing was that his body was constantly weakening, and Naruto was still young. He was gradually reaching the peak.

Not only Naruto, but Seireitei's other Kage-rank experts were also troublesome.

Especially Shion, who controlled Bankai. Previously, Ninjutsu could instantly devour his six paths of Pain, and if not for Jiraiya's help, he would have also been defeated.

Bankai was presumably Sword's advanced ability. If Kyubi and Haku learned Bankai in the future, then he would have even less of a chance.

No matter how he thought about it, the implementation of Akatsuki's tailed beast capture plan was already very difficult.

Right now, the most important thing was to find a way to restrain Seireitei.

Konoha.

A figure slowly approached from the forest outside of Konoha.

Dressed in a white robe, he had golden hair and a gentle smile.

This person was Yondaime Hokage, Namikaze Minato, who had betrayed Konoha.

Minato walked with light steps, carrying a round bag in his hand.

"Who is it? Yon... Yondaime?" Several Anbu and Ninja immediately stopped Minato, their faces full of vigilance.

But when they saw Minato's appearance, they were shocked.

Minato was clearly rebellious, but Anbu and Ninja were still at a loss for what to do.

"I'm looking for your Hokage." Minato smiled.

Several Ninja went to report, and the remaining Ninja surrounded Minato, looking at the bag in Minato's hand with vigilance.

"This is my gift to Konoha." Minato smiled and comforted Ninja, "Relax, if I had any bad intentions toward Konoha, you would have died."

Soon, Anbu Ninja came to Hokage's office with Minato.

Tsunade sat in front of her desk, looking a little uneasy.

Jiraiya went to Seireitei to investigate, and it had been a long time since she contacted Konoha.

And in this sensitive matter, the traitor Minato actually came to Konoha.

It was inevitable that her purpose would cause her worry.

Could it be related to Jiraiya?

"Long time no see, Godaime, you are still as elegant as before." Minato smiled and sat opposite Tsunade, putting the bag on the desk.

Tsunade noticed that there was a trace of blood at the bottom of the bag, and her heart suddenly felt uneasy.

But as a Konoha Hokage, she could not show her fear, so she frowned and asked,

"What are you doing in Konoha? Now we are enemies with Seireitei. Do we still have the genius you want to kidnap?"

Her tone was not good.

Minato had stayed in Konoha for a few months, and then directly kidnapped Kakashi, and then even Sasuke defected.

Now Tsunade was a little afraid of Minato.

There were not many geniuses left in Konoha, and if they were taken away, they would really collapse.

Maybe because he saw Tsunade's concerns, Minato smiled indifferently, pointed to the bag on the table, and calmly said: "Don't worry, this time we don't have any thoughts about Konoha's talents. The reason I came here is only to give this to you." After that, his eyes suddenly became a bit terrifying.

Tsunade opened the bag half-believing and half-doubting. She was so scared that she took a step back. Her eyes were filled with fear and disbelief. Her eyes were filled with tears.

"Jiraiya?"

Her voice trembled as if she was doubting what she had seen.

In the bag was Jiraiya's head.

"He is your Sensei!" Tsunade glared at Minato, his eyes full of pain.

"He is also Seireitei's enemy." Minato looked straight into Tsunade's eyes without any expression.

"He helped Chief Akatsuki to attack Seireitei. If Naruto hadn't arrived, Seireitei would have been destroyed."

Minato looked at Tsunade deeply, and his tone became cold.

"Godaime Hokage Senju Tsunade, I now represent Seireitei to officially start a war against Konoha. Be prepared for the war. The next time we meet, we will decide life and death! Remember, this is a war, not your Ninja game!"

After that, Minato turned around and left without any reluctance, his expression was so calm that it was terrifying.

Jiraiya was his Sensei, so he naturally felt a little sad for Jiraiya.

But just as he said, what Seireitei and Konoha were going to start next was war.

There was no time to be sad, so he could only go forward!

After Minato left, Tsunade sat on the chair in a daze, his face ashen, and two lines of clear tears rolled down his face.

"Jiraiya is dead... he is dead."

Countless images related to Jiraiya appeared in his mind.

The foolish Jiraiya who pursued him without any results.

The lustful Jiraiya.

There was also Jiraiya, who was determined to go to Seireitei. Even though he was sad, he walked very firmly.

Jiraiya had been chasing for his entire life.

It was also as if he hadn't chased anything.

But in reality.

It left a deep and unforgettable impression in everyone's hearts.

Tsunade's expression changed from sadness to anger, from anger to determination and madness.

"Activate Mokuton's ultimate experiment!" She said to herself coldly.

"Jiraiya, I won't let you die in vain!"
