Chapter 422: A New Hero

"Naruto, don't mess around, even though the other party has been controlled, it's dangerous for you to go see him......"

Without even thinking about it, he was about to refuse Naruto's request.

"No, Haiyi, I think this matter can be considered. ”

Lu Jiu suddenly spoke and stopped Haiyi, and made a thoughtful expression:

When Naruto first made this suggestion, Shikaku thought the same thing as Haiichi, thinking that it was simply not feasible. When it comes to the safety of a village, how can you give it to a little devil like Naruto, who is famous for being off the line? But after some careful consideration, Lu Jiu suddenly realized that such an arrangement was simply a stroke of genius.

First of all, the invitation sent by Qingyang is itself an unclear purpose. Of course, there are only two possibilities: First, if it is simply to discuss the reconstruction of the division of labor and the post-war situation, then there is no rush at this time, and there is no need to even discuss it in the form of a meeting. However, the second possibility is not simple, if Qingyang wants to achieve something through this meeting, Lu Jiu must weigh it.

At this time, it would be wonderful to lift Naruto in front of Qingyang, if it was the first possibility, then it didn't matter who was used as the representative, even if Naruto was a simple-minded young man.

At the same time, there is another thing in Lu Jiu's heart that cannot be told to others: because of the existence of the reincarnation eye, Lu Jiu is more willing to let Qingyang deal with Payne's problem by himself.

When it was revealed that Danzang was in possession of the Uchiha Shisui Sharingan, it caused an uproar in the village, and even many people had some other thoughts because of this. If the legendary eye of reincarnation is put on the table for everyone to discuss together, it will undoubtedly be the source of chaos. Lu has been looking forward to it for a long time, and it is best for Qingyang to quietly destroy the eye of reincarnation.

……

"Lu Jiu, what exactly are you going to do?"

Naruto ran towards the Konoha Forest under the leadership of a team of middle ninjas, and Haiichi asked the doubts in his heart.

"Haiyi, what do you think of Naruto Uzumaki's performance today?"

Lu Jiu did not answer Haiyi's question directly, but asked such an inexplicable question instead. Although I don't know what my friend is trying to do, I answered honestly.

"To be honest, Naruto Uzumaki's performance today was a sight to behold. A few years ago, Naruto Uzumaki was a hidden danger to the village, but today, I didn't expect him to stand in front of the village and change the tide of the battle in the midst of the village's crisis. Even before I thought that the only way to solve Payne was to hope for the Ministry of Patience. ”

Haiyi's words won Lujiu's approval.

"Dangerous elements that were once about to be destroyed are now heroes who turn the tide. Haiyi, since the golden flash, we have had a lot of heroes. Now Konoha needs a new hero. ”

Shikaku's evaluation of Naruto in these words is not high, and he directly crossed over Haruhi and Kakashi and the others, and compared them with the golden flash of the fourth Hokage, his words really shocked Haiichi.

"Lu Jiu, I don't know when you have a problem with exaggeration. ”

"Exaggeration? Maybe, there is no way, sometimes it is necessary to exaggerate what everyone sees. There must be a vigorous hero in the village now. ”

……

"Naruto, why are you here?"

Despite having already received the report from his subordinates, Haruhi was still surprised by Naruto's arrival.

"Uncle Lu Jiu called me here, and he asked me to tell my eldest brother that everyone in the village is cleaning up the battlefield, and the matter of rebuilding the village will be discussed later. Well, that's what it means. ”

After saying that, Naruto thought about it again and confirmed that he had not left anything behind.

"Hmm...... I see, it's the teacher's arrangement. ”

Qingyang smacked his lips in some disappointment, he really wanted to use this opportunity to test it, but since Lu Jiu didn't give him this opportunity, then Qingyang didn't force it.

"Big brother, is Payne here?"

Just as Haruyo was thinking about things, Naruto looked at the "paper tree" behind Haruyo and asked.

"What? Do you want to meet Payne himself?"

In fact, there is no accident in Haruhio, and Naruto's deep feelings for Jiraiya are unimaginable to ordinary people. His master suffered such a catastrophe, and Naruto was a disciple, so it was natural for him to want to confront Payne.

Naruto didn't speak, just nodded slightly. He didn't come here to spread the word for Lu Jiu at all, his real purpose was only one, that is, to meet Payne.

"Okay, you can go meet him, but I want you to calm down, and I don't think Jiraiya-sama wants you to be blinded by hatred. ”

"I understand. ”

Naruto whispered yes, and with both hands, he picked up the paper in front of him and walked in. Qingyang is not worried, with him guarding outside, he is naturally confident to ensure Naruto's safety, and with the current Naruto, naturally no one can handle it.

"You...... You're Payne. ”

Walking into the paper tree, Naruto asked with some surprise when he saw Nagato, who described it as withered. It's no wonder that the appearance of who called Nagato is so different from what he expected.

"Nine-Tailed Man Pillar Force ......"

Nagato looked at Naruto and said with a complicated expression. The child in front of him is the key to his victory, but at this moment he is standing in front of him, and he has lost the hope of victory forever.

But Naruto was not satisfied with Nagato's name for him, and shook his head and said.

"I'm not called Nine-Tails Pillar Force, my name is Naruto Uzumaki, and I'm also...... No, I'm also a disciple of Jiraiya-sensei. ”

Naruto mentioned Jiraiya's name in front of Nagato, which made Nagato's heart tremble, but he didn't show it on his face.

"Well, my name is Nagato, and I'm also a disciple of Jiraiya-sensei. What do you mean by coming to tell me, do you want to avenge Jiraiya-sensei?"

I don't know what kind of purpose it was, Nagato actually looked at Naruto a little provocatively.

"Stupid. ”

In the face of Nagato's provocation, Naruto suddenly and coldly spat out such a word.

"What did you say?!"

Nagato looked at Naruto in disbelief, he thought about the various reactions that Naruto might have, but he didn't expect Naruto to say that.

"I said you were stupid, you think I came to you just to kill you to vent my anger? ”

Qingyang looked at Naruto in disbelief, he had never seen a Naruto like this before. I saw a look of pity on Naruto's face.

"The lustful fairy believes in you so much, he believes that you are the hope of this world, but you repay his trust in you in this way. Stubbornly believing that your mistakes are right, and making mistakes again and again, all you have left is stupidity. Death can only make you die with stubbornness, and the lustful immortals will not agree to me killing you. ”

Naruto's tone made Nagato feel uncomfortable, and it felt as if he was standing on a high vantage point looking down on him, causing Nagato to leave angry.

"What do you know?! The so-called war must be accompanied by death, wounds, and suffering on both sides...... There is only pain, and hatred that does not know where to go...... The killing of human lives...... Never-ending hatred...... Incurable pain...... All I want to do is to be the end of the war! to put an end to this suffering! You know what?!"

Nagato shouted angrily, foaming at the mouth of the cry, almost squirting into Naruto's face. But Naruto didn't realize it, and in the face of Nagato's hoarse shout, Naruto just asked in a low voice.

"Did you do it?"

“……”

Nagato fell silent, and Naruto asked himself.

"Why do we eliminate war? so that everyone can live in peace and happiness. The so-called ninja also fights to realize and protect them. ”

Speaking of this, Naruto smiled shyly and returned to his somewhat ignorant big boy appearance.

"I can't say these words, they are all said by lustful immortals. My brain is not very good and my memory is always poor. If I'm not mistaken, the four rain-shaped forehead guards are the rain ninja symbols, then I must have been to the Land of Rain.

For more than two years, the lustful fairy took me to many places. In the Land of Rain, there is no pain on everyone's faces, because they are so numb that they can't feel the pain, and all that is left is madness.

The purpose of eliminating war is to make everyone happy, but what you have done has made everyone happy? Admit your mistakes, and it is not so uncomfortable. If you can't even be honest, what right do you have to call yourself a ninja?"

Naruto said with tears and laughter, it was Naruto's fond memories of Jiraiya. Qingyang looked at Naruto in disbelief, he couldn't imagine that Naruto had grown so much. Naruto is a man who says that there is always less than he does, and perhaps Jiraiya has taught him that growing up is to stay in his heart, not to show off.

Nagato was stunned on the spot by Naruto's words, and then shouted unyieldingly.

"For the sake of the truth, it is inevitable to pay a certain price!"

Naruto smiled, but this time it was a sad one.

"You're talking about the price again, aren't you? I can't tell you, I just remember when I was at school, and Iruka-sensei had a lot of reasons. But now, there is no going back to the student days after all. ”

Naruto's faint melancholy that was exclusive to adolescence infected Haruhio, and looking at Naruto's face, Haruhi seemed to think of his fledgling self as well.

Nagato thought more, he thought of the shame of wearing a frog suit, the two little guesses he had with Xiao Nan, and the Yahiko who laughed forever, instead of the cold Heavenly Dao......

"I ......"

Nagato's already thin body suddenly paused, and at that moment, Naruto took something out of his arms and threw it to Nagato.

"I'm here to see you, and more importantly, I want to show you this. ”

"What is this?"

Taking what Naruto tossed, Nagato was stunned and said that this is a book, with "Strong Perseverance Shinobi Biography" written on the cover, and the author's signature is "Jiraiya".

"This is a book left by the lustful fairy, and I want you to read it. ”

With Naruto's words, Nagato involuntarily opened it, and the book seemed to have magical power, attracting Nagato to keep reading:

The book is a wonderful world, full of hardships and dangers, but any hardships will eventually pass. Most importantly, I have a wonderful self in this book. That's right, Nagato thinks that the protagonist of this book is himself, although his name is Naruto.

"Can you see what the horny fairy expects from you?!!! you bastard?"

Naruto finally couldn't suppress the emotions in his heart, and the tears kept flowing out, and he shouted at Nagato.

"Just let me unravel this curse......"

Naruto whispered, and Nagato's mouth moved.

"If peace really exists......"

Gradually, the two of them read at the same time.

"Then let me reach him, I won't give up!"

"Let's do it~"

The book in his hand was scattered, and Nagato hid his face and wept, without any words, only sadness. Nagato's eyes were full of tears, and he looked forward through his fingers, and he saw a glimmer of light on his otherwise gloomy path, and Jirai was waiting for him at the other end of the light.

"Jiraiya-sensei, I was wrong...... I'm going to pay for my mistakes......"

As he spoke, Nagato's hands began to form seals.

"Bang !!"

As soon as the second seal was formed, Naruto rushed over in one step and punched Nagato in the face.

I've never seen Naruto so angry, and he knocked out half of Nagato's teeth with one punch. Naruto yelled angrily at Nagato, who was stupid there.

"You're running away from !!"

Nagato was quiet, aggrieved like a detached little beast, languishing for a long time, Nagato suddenly took a deep breath and looked up at Qingyang.

"The moon is clear, I surrender. ”

Nagato finally said these words, and Haruhi let out a sigh of relief, and he smiled at Naruto relaxedly.

"Naruto, you're such a hero. ”
