Chapter 162 Jiraiya's Second Choice
"Eat it, this guy is a very good person. He is the one who helps take care of another disciple of the teacher."
Jiraiya patted Xiaonan's head, took an apple and stuffed it into her hand, giving enough encouragement.
Xiaonan smiled and took a bite of the apple happily.
Seeing this, Yahiko couldn't help it on the spot, picked up an apple and started to eat it. Only Nagato stood behind embarrassedly, worried that his eyes would be discovered.
In the end, it was Jiraiya who helped him get the fruit.
"Thank you, Jiraiya."
Looking at Nagato who was very grateful, it was hard to believe that this little guy who was full of gratitude to Jiraiya would run to Konoha to carry rice in the future. Konoha was almost destroyed by this little guy.
If Naruto's mouth was not strong enough, no one could predict what would happen in the end.
It's all Danzo's fault!
If it weren't for Danzo, the evil spirit, who ran to the Rain Country to make trouble and forced Yahiko to death, the Akatsuki organization would not have taken the extreme path. Even if it had, Nagato would not have hated Konoha so much without this incident.
All the kindness disappeared as Yahiko was forced to death.
Noticing that Shizuka was observing him, Nagato quickly lowered his head.
Did Shizuka find out?
Jiraiya's heart skipped a beat, because he didn't know what Shizuka would do to Nagato if he found the Samsara Eye.
"Shizuka, did you come to the Land of Rain to find me?"
Jiraiya quickly changed the subject, slowly moving his body to completely block Nagato behind him. Yahiko and Konan, who noticed that the atmosphere was not right, also became nervous.
They were not sure whether Shizuka was a friend or an enemy.
While eating fish, Shizuka said contemptuously: "How dare you?"
"........"
Damn!
Do you have to be so blunt! ! !
Jiraiya's forced smile collapsed directly.
Looking at him with a depressed face, Jingyi smiled and explained:
"The Rain Country is too chaotic. The Daimyo of the Rain Country is worried about his own safety, so he went to the village for help. So the protection mission was handed over to the Anbu. I came here with the Anbu people. After cleaning up the Daimyo's mansion in the Rain Country, I came to find you."
"Ahahaha... That's right, you shouldn't take the initiative to find me."
Jiraiya was embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
"That, Nawaki..."
"Very good, I almost forgot about your teacher. I guess when you return to the village, he will chase you and beat you."
Jiraiya: "........"
"By the way, your teacher asked me to help bring a message to you. He said that the village needs you and hopes that you can return to Konoha as soon as possible."
After that, Jingyi continued to eat and no longer cared about Jiraiya. As for what Jiraiya thought, that was Jiraiya's own business.
Teacher, are you leaving us?
Jingyi's words made the three children of Akatsuki panic. They couldn't imagine how they would live without Jiraiya, their teacher.
The Rain Country is now a place where people eat people.
Seeing the worries of the three children, Jiraiya laughed: "Don't worry, the teacher will not leave you. I will always be with you until you grow up."
"Teacher, is it true?"
Konan looked at him in surprise.
"Of course it's true."
Jiraiya smiled and picked up the little girl and put her on his lap.
After comforting the three children, Jiraiya raised his head in embarrassment: "Jingyi, I..."
"Don't say anything to me, I'm just a messenger, I won't force you to return to the village."
Jingyi was too lazy to persuade Jiraiya. Whether he stayed or was willing to return to the village, it had nothing to do with him directly.
He was just a messenger.
After hearing Jingyi's words, Jiraiya was inexplicably relieved.
He could ignore the urging of the Third Hokage, but Jingyi couldn't ignore it, after all, Jingyi was sitting in front of him.
What worries Jiraiya the most is that he can't beat Jingyi. If Jingyi really wants to take him away, there are too many ways.
Not to mention taking him back directly, threatening him with the three little ones, he has to compromise.
Jiraiya will not leave, and Jingyi will not persuade him or use tough measures.
The atmosphere in the wooden house has become lively again.
Not to mention Yahiko and Konan, even the extremely introverted Nagato smiled, but his eyes were covered by his bangs and could not be seen clearly.
The meal was finished quickly.
Jiraiya drove the three children to the room to rest.
After the three children left, Jiraiya and Jingyi were the only ones left in the living room of the wooden house.
Jiraiya made a pot of hot tea, poured a cup for Jingyi, and pushed the tea in front of him considerately.
Jingyi lifted the teacup and took a sip, saying lightly: "If you have to fart, just fart."
"Hehe..."
Jiraiya smiled embarrassedly: "The things in the scroll........."
Jiraiya was not short of money. Even if most of the money was contributed to Rope Tree, he still had a lot left, but the Rain Country was too chaotic, and he needed to hide from the people sent by the Third Hokage, so Jiraiya couldn't leave to purchase supplies.
Giving Jiraiya a look of admiration, Jingyi took out the scroll and threw it on the table.
Jiraiya smiled foolishly and put the scroll away as quickly as possible, fearing that Jingyi would regret it.
Jiraiya drank tea slowly, too lazy to look at him, shameful!
Soon after finishing a cup of tea, Jingyi rubbed his palms: "I will return to the village in a while, do you have anything to say to me?"
"Ah?"
Jiraiya was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said:
"No, have a good trip, by the way, don't tell the old man about my being here."
"No more?"
"No more."
"Are you sure?"
"I am sure.........uh."
Facing Jingyi's somewhat playful eyes, Jiraiya swallowed half of the "I am sure" he just said, and swallowed the rest back by himself.
Because he was not sure whether Jingyi had discovered that Nagato was wrong.
The reason why Jiraiya hid in this valley was that he was afraid that the third generation of Hokage would send someone to find him and persuade him to return to the village, and he was worried that Nagato's eyes would be discovered.
The legendary immortal's eyes, once the news spread, would definitely attract countless people's prying.
When he thought of countless people staring at Nagato's eyes, mainly from the five major ninja villages, Jiraiya couldn't help but shudder.
It's too damn dangerous.
No, I have to find a secluded place to hide. This small valley is not safe anymore. It would be better to build an underground base or something.
Jingyi didn't know how many weird things Jiraiya had imagined.
