Chapter 176: 1 Million Explosive Tags, Can’t Blow up People?
Chapter 176: 1 Million Explosive Tags, Can’t Blow up People?
Just as Kakashi's team went deep into the Country of Sound territory.
In other countries, Tsunade and Jiraiya received the news from Minato.
"Is this information that Minato wants to give me? Thank you for your hard work. Next time, I will find some delicious insects for you to eat."
Jiraiya was thinking about the "Icha Icha Paradise" series in the hotel, and he feels this work will be popular.
"Next time, next time..."
A little toad was lying on the tatami, muttering in dissatisfaction. It was full of joy and came to deliver the letter, but it did not expect that Jiraiya would repudiate it again.
In the face of a rogue like Jiraiya, it had no choice.
After all, Gamahiro was too young. Although he was the third son of Fukasaku and Shima, he still needed time to grow.
For a man like Jiraiya, who was connected to the Child of the Prophecy, the entire Mount Myouboku attached great importance to him. They regarded Jiraiya as an important chess piece to hook up with the Child of the Prophecy and placed bets for the future. The two sides are in a mutually beneficial position.
This innocent little toad still did not dare to point at Jiraiya. It was not like Gamabunta.
The little toad raised its head and stared at Jiraiya for a while. It found that Jiraiya did not immediately look at the information. Instead, he frowned and thought hard while writing something on the paper from time to time.
"What are you doing? Is it more important than Yondaime's letter?" Gamahiro jumped onto the table, leaned over, and unconsciously muttered.
"Oh, not there. It tickles and itchy, and my whole body is soo hot... Hurry up... ah, ahh, I've already said that I can't do it anymore, why are you still... What are you writing? Your new work? I can't understand it at all!"
Gamahiro was a little confused.
'What the hell is this?'
'Why do I feel that it is not as good as The Tale of the Utterly Gutsy Ninja book.'
"Go away, go away. What does a little toad know? You will understand when you grow up a little."
Jiraiya's train of thought was interrupted. He picked up Gamahiro and shook him.
Then he widened his eyes and stared at a certain part of the little toad. He immediately revealed a look of contempt, "Ha."
Gamahiro was dumbfounded. He had no idea what this guy was doing, but looking at Jiraiya's expression, it seemed that he was doing something very serious.
"Forget it; I don't care. The world of adults is really complicated... You have to remember to read Yondaime's letter. I will go back first. I heard that Yondaime has been planning to take a very important person to Mount Myouboku."
After Gamahiro finished speaking, he disappeared on the spot with a bang and returned to Mount Myouboku.
When Gamahiro left.
Jiraiya immediately put down his pen. His brain, which was filled with bad images, immediately shifted his attention.
"Is that so? That fellow Minato has already decided to take Yuuji to Mount Myouboku? A mysterious beast like Godzilla and the whole ninja world can't find any historical traces. Even Mount Myouboku's Toad Sage was so concerned about it..."
Jiraiya pondered.
He knew that Grate Toad Sage, Fukasaku, and Shima had paid unimaginable attention to Godzilla.
It could almost be said that it was second only to the Child of the Prophecy.
Even Mount Myouboku themselves could not figure it out.
What kind of attitude should they use to treat this mysterious beast?
They might as well follow Mount Myouboku's way when they seduce Hagoromo and Hamura. It didn't matter if they couldn't win; they would just pull the other party to join them.
Jiraiya was very clear about Mount Myouboku's way of doing things. Among the Three Big Unexplored 'Sage' Regions, only Mount Myouboku was the most active. They jumped around and took the initiative to attack, wanting to form a good relationship with the Child of the Prophecy.
"Forget it. After all, it is also a sage region. I can't control Mount Myouboku's way of doing things... This can't also be considered a bad thing."
Jiraiya shook his head.
Yuuji was a true inheritor of the will of fire. He came from a clean background. After he made great contributions, his talent was exceptional, and he made great contributions to Konoha.
It could not be considered bad for such a person to be pulled over by Mount Myouboku.
"This matter has Minato and the three Toad Sage to worry about. I won't interfere. Let's see what information Minato has sent me first..."
Jiraiya laughed and threw Yuuji's matter to the back of his mind. He opened Minato's intelligence scroll.
He quickly glanced at it.
Then he was stunned.
"What? Orochimaru is actually alive? He actually mastered the method of resurrection?"
For a moment, Jiraiya didn't know what to say.
Jiraiya had tried to persuade this companion who he had been fighting for decades and was obsessed with immortality and all kinds of human experiments. He even thought that this fellow was whimsical.
But he did not expect that... he even mastered the forbidden technique of resurrection! Could it be that an Immortality Technique is real...
"Orochimaru..."
After a long time, Jiraiya let out a long breath. His mood was complicated, and he was both sad and happy.
In the face of the resurrection of his best friend and opponent, he did not know whether he should be happy or sad.
When he continued to open the scroll and read the other information, Jiraiya became more and more silent.
On the other side, in a certain casino in the Country of Fire.
"Place your bet~ Open, big! This fat sheep, ah no, this beauty, congratulations on your victory!" The dealer shouted loudly.
To be honest, this was the first time he saw this big-breasted woman win money.
"Won...?"
Tsunade's originally excited face suddenly stiffened. She looked suspiciously at the dice.
Even if she won, she did not smile at all.
"Shizune, take the money; let's go." Tsunade suddenly got up.
Shizune hurriedly collected the money. Although she was puzzled, she followed her obediently.
Outside the casino.
An Anbu was already standing there respectfully.
"Anbu is really annoying. They actually found us so easily..." Tsunade frowned.
"Cough cough, Tsunade-sama, after all, you have a great reputation. You also like to wear clothes with the word 'Gamble', cough cough cough." The Anbu coughed.
"Damn, when I owe all the casinos in the Country of Fire, I will leave this country... Hey, little brat from Gekkou Clan, I no longer care about the matters of the village; don't bother me!"
Tsunade snorted and left with Shizune.
Shizune grabbed her and begged, "Country of Fire's casino has been tight in recent years. They said that they were affected by the underground bounty and were afraid of being cheated. If you continue like this, you will be blacklisted by the entire Country of Fire casino! Why don't we take a look at what's happening in the village first?"
Gekkou Hayate suddenly said, "Tsunade-sama, you better take a look. This is not only related to the village; it might also be related to you."
"What does it have to do with me? Are you kidding me? Is there a problem with Jiraiya? Or is it that old man Sandaime going to die? A few years ago, when Kyuubi Rampage broke out in Konoha, I was too lazy to go back, let alone now?" Tsunade sneered.
Gekkou Hayate respectfully handed over the intelligence scroll.
Shizune hand was fast, and she took it one step earlier and gave it to Tsunade with both hands obediently.
"... You little brat."
Tsunade muttered. She grabbed the scroll and opened it.
The originally casual look in her eyes suddenly changed.
The news of Orochimaru's resurrection did not surprise her. Tsunade was now too lazy to care whether Orochimaru was dead or alive.
What really stunned her was the information behind it.
"On the night of the Kyuubi Rampage, Sage's eyes, Senju Hashirama, and Uchiha Madara launched an attack on the village... Yondaime confirmed the identity of the other party? How could grandpa attack the village he built himself!!"
Tsunade was furious.
The matter of Kyuubi Rampage was circulating in the ninja world. Tsunade, who gambled everywhere and drank alcohol, had heard about it, but she did not want to probe too much.
As for the matter of Wood Release Ninja, Tsunade was shocked at the beginning and quickly threw it to the back of her mind.
Although she didn't know what was going on with this Wood Release Ninja, she thought that it was just like Yamato, who had obtained the First Hokage cells.
"Yondaime must have made a mistake! Hmph, grandpa is already dead, and even if he is alive, it is impossible for him to collude with Uchiha Madara and attack Konoha!"
Tsunade continued to open the scroll and saw the third one, which was also the most important information to her.
"Guess of Sage's eyes real identity...? To be able to join hands with Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara... Akatsuki Organization... Danzo's deduction... Reika no Jutsu(Spirit Transformation Technique)...?!"
Tsunade was dumbfounded.
She stood there blankly, her mind blank, and the intelligence scroll fell to the ground with a bang.
"How could this be? This is too ridiculous!" Tsunade punched the wall.
Boom!
The casino collapsed.
Gekkou Hayate carefully picked up the scroll and destroyed it on the spot. He said lightly, "Tsunade-sama, my task has been completed. What you plan to do next has nothing to do with me. Cough, cough, cough..."
He immediately disappeared from where he was.
"Tsunade-sama, what happened?" Shizune looked at her uneasily.
"... It's nothing. I just heard a lot of ridiculous news. If I didn't use the password to confirm that this information really came from Yondaime, I would have suspected that someone was playing me!"
Tsunade gritted her teeth.
'What the hell is this? Orochimaru, grandpa, and...'
"It's fake; it must be fake! Shizune, you return to the village by yourself first. I have something to do."
"Ah? Where are you going?"
"Country of Rain! I want to verify something. Jiraiya must have obtained this information. He should be heading toward the Country of Rain now!"
Tsunade clenched her fists and immediately began to move.
As for the collapsed casino, Tsunade was too lazy to care.
Shizune was unable to stop her, so she could only watch as Tsunade flew away.
"What... happened?" Shizune looked confused and worried.
...
Country of Sound.
Sasori had already officially made his move against Konan and Zetsu.
"It seems like the two of you possess good abilities. Become my puppets." Sasori said coldly.
He directly took out a scroll and spread it out on the spot.
"To deal with you guys, I don't need to use my ultimate art. I'll just use this to deal with you guys..."
With a face full of pride, Sasori cast a technique and summoned his masterpiece from the scroll.
"This guy..." Konan's eyes narrowed.
A strange puppet appeared in front of Sasori.
"Hey, hey, hey, are you serious? I remember this guy's appearance. Isn't this the Third Kazekage, who has been missing for eight years? Didn't Sunaggakure say that Konohagakure assassinated their Kage?" White Zetsu shouted in shock.
Konan regained her composure, "So that's how it is. You assassinated the Kage of your village and then transformed him into a puppet..."
"Hmph, die here. The two of you will be with the Third Kazekage soon."
Sasori sneered and immediately controlled the Third Kazekage to use his Magnet Release Bloodline Limit.
A large amount of black iron sand floated out from the Third Kazekage's mouth.
"Iron Sand... For the Third Kazekage to be called the strongest Kazekage in history, there seems to be a reason."
Konan opened her hand.
"Shikigami no Mai: Kami Shigure(Dance of the Shikigami: Paper Drizzle)!"
"Satetsu Shigure(Iron Sand Drizzle)!"
The black iron sand turned into a dense, long needle that poured out like rain and collided with Konan's paper drizzle.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
The two kinds of ninjutsu with similar effects erupted into a fierce collision, and a large number of iron needles and paper drizzle collided with each other, making a metallic sound.
"Hmph, I have a puppet to protect myself. What do you have? Do you rely on strange paper?" Sasori sneered.
He activated the iron sand drizzle while moving the Third Kazekage in front of him. At the same time, he condensed a large amount of iron sand into a powerful protective barrier.
Some of the paper drizzle that passed through pierced the iron barrier on the spot.
Under Sasori's expectant gaze.
A portion of the iron needles also stabbed toward Konan and was about to pierce her into a sieve.
Swish swish swish!
Large amounts of paper flew all over the sky, condensing into a layer of paper walls that blocked the iron needles.
"Tsk, she actually blocked it..." Sasori curled his lips.
Swish!
Konan raised her height again. The two huge wings behind her flapped, causing her to look down at Sasori from above, and a trace of seriousness appeared in her eyes.
"Hahaha, are you stupid? The White can fly. No matter how strong your puppet technique is, it's impossible to knock the white down from the sky!" Zetsu didn't mind the excitement and tried his best to fan the flames.
Every time there was an iron attack, it would dig into the ground and come out after a while.
"Is the ability to fly very amazing? Satetsu: Kurogane no Tsubasa(Iron Sand: Black Iron Wings)!" The corners of Sasori's mouth twitched.
More iron sand immediately gushed out from the Third Kazekage's body, transforming into huge wings that flapped loudly.
Sasori controlled the Third Kazekage with one hand. At the same time, he used the Third Kazekage to fly into the sky.
One black and one white.
The two people with wings on their backs looked at each other.
"This guy can actually fly..." Konan frowned.
'This is too troublesome.'
'If this guy Sasori controls more ninjas with bloodline limit, I'm afraid he can do even more incredible things.'
"Sasori, Akatsuki has acknowledged your strength," Konan said slowly.
"Hmph, I don't care about your recognition. I only want to obtain your bodies!"
Sasori said coldly.
The two of them flew in the air and engaged in an intense battle.
To a certain extent, the two sides were fighting in a very similar way. One side had a large amount of iron, the other was a large amount of paper, and all kinds of ninjutsu were launched, covering a large area.
"Satetsu Kaihō(Iron Sand World Method)!"
"Kami no tate(Paper Shield)!"
The battle between the two sides was extremely dangerous.
"I want to use Kami no Shisha no Jutsu(Paper Person of God Technique), but I haven't accumulated enough explosive tags yet..." Konan was a little hesitant.
That technique was a secret technique developed by Konan in recent years. In theory, it did not have a limit on its power.
This was something she had prepared for the two dangerous elements, Xu and Madara, just in case.
"Aiyaya, seriously, White is in trouble... Since that's the case, let's do it as well." White Zetsu stretched out his head and stared with wide eyes.
Black Zetsu said coldly, "Whatever. You are the one who will do it anyway."
"What? Hey, I am obviously better at scouting. You are the best at fighting, aren't you?"
"Hmph, I won't waste my energy on this kind of place." Black Zetsu said coldly.
White Zetsu had a helpless expression, "Alright then, let me do it. Fortunately, I was prepared..."
Zetsu extended his white arm.
Then, the ground began to change, and several White Zetsu emerged from the ground one after another.
"What is this?"
Sasori took the time to look down and saw several White Zetsu.
His expression changed slightly, 'Did these ghost things also have the value of transforming into puppets?'
"Hahaha~ I'm coming, Sasori, be careful not to be killed by me!"
White Zetsu shouted.
Several White Zetsu moved one after another and looked up at Sasori's position, looking for an opportunity.
Sasori casually controlled a piece of iron to pierce through a White Zetsu but was surprised to find that this white creature did not have any blood or organs...
"If you don't focus, you will pay the price. Sasori, either join Akatsuki or die here."
Konan gradually lost her patience and felt even more embarrassed.
This was the first time she had taken action to recruit new people, but she didn't expect that she couldn't solve the situation for a long time and had to ask for help.
"As expected, I still have to use Kami no Shisha no Jutsu(Paper Person of God Technique). With the total number of explosive tags I have now, I wouldn't blow up this guy... There are only one million in total."
Konan muttered.
In the next moment, a large amount of white paper began to spread crazily on her body, fluttering in the air and covering her vision.
She quietly stuffed a large number of special explosive tags she had prepared into these pieces of paper.
No one discovered it.
However, Sasori could clearly feel a dangerous aura.
"What are you planning to do? No matter what it is, it is impossible to break my defense!" Sasori became alert.
At this time.
Kakashi's team quickly approached and looked at the two figures in the sky in shock.
"A ninja flying in the sky?"
"A black wing, a white wing..."
"Captain Kakashi, that black wing seems to be condensed from a large number of minerals..."
Kakashi looked up, and his intuition told him that this mission would become very troublesome.
