A month later. With {Dream} small ◢.1a

Continent.

A country.

A small border town.

Naruto Uzumaki, who was walking, observed the scene on both sides of the street and asked Jiraiya, "Lustful Immortal, why is this place so desolate?"

"Where have all the people gone?"

"There's going to be a war!" replied Jiraiya, "and the inhabitants of this place must have heard the news of the impending war and hid." ”

Jiraiya finished answering, and Naruto Uzumaki stopped.

Jiraiya looked at Naruto Uzumaki, who bowed his head and clenched his fists, stopped, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Our ninja troops again?" asked Naruto Uzumaki in a low voice.

Self-coming is also silent.

"Naruto, you're still young, don't think about it so much!" Kakashi, who also stopped, said, "There are some things that don't fit you to think about right now. ”

Hearing Kakashi's words, Naruto Uzumaki suddenly looked up at Kakashi Hachiki.

"Kakashi-sensei, I'm not too young!" Naruto Uzumaki said.

"Naruto, we are us, the ninja force is the ninja force!" said Jiraiya to Naruto Uzumaki.

"Jiraiya-sensei, don't I want peace in the ninja world!" Naruto Uzumaki asked Jiraiya, "why don't you leave our ninja troops alone?"

Faced with Naruto Uzumaki's question, Jiraiya didn't know how to answer.

"I know the people in the village respect you very much!" Seeing that Jirai didn't speak, Naruto Uzumaki continued, "In my opinion, as long as you come forward, I believe that our ninja forces will inevitably retreat. ”

"You're overestimating me!" said Jiraiya, laughing at himself, "Now, I'm just an ordinary civilian. ”

"One word of mine is unlikely to make our ninja forces retreat. ”

"I don't believe it!" Naruto Uzumaki said.

"Naruto, Jiraiya-sama didn't lie to you!" Kakashi Hachiki said, "Right now, Jiraiya-sama can't let our ninja forces retreat. ”

With Kakashi's proof, Naruto Uzumaki knew that Jiraiya really couldn't make the Fire Nation ninja forces retreat.

Unable to figure out why, Naruto Uzumaki asked Kakashi Hachiki, "Why is this happening?"

"Jiraiya-sama has already explained why!" Kakashi Hachiki replied.

"Why didn't I know that Jiraiya-sensei explained why?" asked Naruto Uzumaki.

"Didn't Jiraiya-sama just tell you that he's just an extremely ordinary civilian now!" Kakashi Hachiki said, "Naruto, that's why Jiraiya-sama can't get our ninja forces back. ”

Seeing that Naruto Uzumaki was still ignorant, Kakashi Hachiki said bluntly, "Naruto, Jiraiya-sama is not an official official, and he has no authority to order our ninja troops to retreat. ”

"Before, Jiraiya-sama was not an official official!" Naruto Uzumaki asked, "I could manage it before, why can't I manage it now?"

"This time, that time!" Kakashi Hachiki replied, "Naruto, things are going to change. ”

"I don't understand - our ninja forces are living well, but why fight!" Naruto Uzumaki said indignantly.

Looking at the indignant Naruto Uzumaki, Jiraiya and Kakashi Hachiki were speechless.

……

——————————

Night.

B&B.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Jiraiya, who was pouring himself a drink, asked, "Kakashi, what are you looking for me?"

Kakashi Hachiki sat down across from Jiraiya first, and then replied, "Jiraiya-sama, I have a doubt in my heart!"

"Say!" said Jiraiya.

"Can domestic practices really lead to peace?" asked Kakashi Hagi.

Hearing Kakashi's question, Jiraiya's self-drinking behavior stagnated.

Immediately afterward, Jiraiya first drank the sake in the wine glass, and then said, "Why do you ask me?"

"Because you've traveled north and south for years!" Kakashi Hachiki replied.

"It doesn't mean anything to go south and north!" said Jiraiya.

"Going south and north means insight!" Kakashi said, "The more you see, the more you will be broadened." ”

"Someone who has only been to two or three places so far, and his eyes are far better than that of me!" Jiraiya said, "Kakashi, the eyes of those who have seen more are not necessarily broader than those who have seen less. ”

Kakashi Hachiki knew who Jiraiya's mouth was.

"Hinata-sama is an anomaly!" Kakashi Hachiki said, "I can't see through it. ”

"Not only can't you see through it, but I can't see through Ichiro Hyuga!" said Jiraiya.

After speaking, Jiraiya asked, "In your opinion, can domestic practices achieve peace?"

"I don't know!" Kakashi Hachiki replied.

"You don't know, I don't know!" said Jiraiya.

"The Great Toad Immortal has prophesied that your choice will lead the world to peace or destruction. Kakashi said, "I believe in the prophecy of the Great Toad Immortal. ”

(In order for Kakashi Hachiki to be promoted to a shadow-level powerhouse, Jirai also took Kakashi Hachiki and Naruto Uzumaki to Mt. Mioki.) ）

(In Myoki Mountain, Kakashi Hachiki has gained enough accumulation - now, with just one opportunity, Kakashi Hachiki can be successfully promoted to a shadow-level powerhouse.) ）

(Because Mt. Myoki is not suitable for Kakashi Hagi to find an opportunity to be promoted to a shadow-level powerhouse, Jiraiya left Mt. Myoki with Kakashi Hagi and Naruto Uzumaki.) ）

Jiraiya looked at the sake in the wine glass and whispered, "The prophecy has changed!"

At this moment, Kakashi Hachiki was shocked.

"The prophecy has changed!?" Kaka Hachiki asked, "Jiraiya-sama, you just said that the prophecy has changed?"

"Yes!" replied Jiraiya.

"How could the prophecy change?" Kakashi Hachiki asked, still in disbelief.

"Fate is impermanent!" Jiraiya replied, "Kakashi, there is nothing in the world that is immutable. ”

"What the hell is going on?" Kakashi Hachiki asked.

"During your cultivation in Miaomu Mountain, the Great Toad Immortal once looked for me!" Jiraiya replied, "The Great Toad Immortal told me that he had another dream—in the dream, he saw a prophetic image about me being burned by a nameless fire. ”

Speaking of this, Jiraiya paused and continued, "The Great Toad Immortal explained his new dream that the prophecy of the past has expired. ”

"The future is unpredictable. ”

"How can this be!" said Kakashi Hagi.

"To tell you the truth, when I first heard the big toad immortal say that the prophecy has expired and the future is unpredictable, I was both happy and disappointed!"

Kakashi Hachiki understands why Jiraiya is happy and why he is lost.

"Whoever was in your position at the time, all the same!" said Kakashi Hachiki.

Jiraiya chuckled softly.

Kakashi Hachiki looked at Naruto Uzumaki, who had fallen asleep, and asked in a low voice, "In other words, Naruto is no longer the 'Child of Prophecy'?"

"That's how it should be!" replied Jiraiya.

"Is the prophecy invalid good or bad for Naruto?" Kakashi Hachiki asked.

"I don't know!" replied Jiraiya.

Knowing that he didn't know how good or bad the experiment failure would be for Naruto Uzumaki, Kakashi Hachiki looked worried.

Jiraiya also knows who Kakashi Hachiki is worried about.

"Kakashi, you don't need to worry about Naruto!" Jiraiya said, "For Naruto, the probability that the prophecy will fail is a good thing is greater than the probability of a bad thing. ”

"On what basis do you think so?" Kakashi Hachiki asked.

"I've experienced what it's like to lead the world on my shoulders. Jiraiya replied, "In the past, I couldn't breathe under the weight of the task of guiding the world. ”

"Kakashi, you're a smart person, and even if you haven't experienced what it's like to lead the world on your shoulders, you should be able to imagine what it's like to lead the world on your shoulders. ”

Kakashi Hagi was speechless.

"The responsibility to guide the world is too heavy. "Self-really.

"yes!" Kakashi Hachiki agreed, "You're right—the responsibility of guiding the world is too heavy. ”

"It seems that losing the status of Child of Prophecy is really a good thing for Naruto. ”

……

Early morning.

Jiraiya, who left the guesthouse, was about to go to the next town when they met the 25th detachment of the Fire Country Ninja Force who had just entered the border town at the entrance of the border town.

As soon as they met, both Jiraiya and his party and the 25th detachment of the Fire Country Ninja Force were stunned.

Immediately, the commander of the 25th detachment of the Fire Country Ninja Force took the initiative to greet Jiraiya.

(Regardless, Jiraiya has an extraordinary influence in Konoha - at least, the commander of the 25th Division of the Fire Nation Ninja Force doesn't think he is qualified to take it in front of Jiraiya.) ）

For the commander of the 25th detachment of the Ninja Force of the Fire Nation to take the initiative to greet him, it is impossible to ignore it.

(Face is given by others, and face is earned by oneself - this is also clear to the self.) ）

So, Jiraiya greeted the commander of the 25th detachment of the Ninja Force of the Fire Country.

Naruto Uzumaki, who was bored on the side, glanced at the members of the 25th Detachment of the Fire Nation Ninja Force, and found that the 25th Detachment of the Fire Nation Ninja Force had someone he knew.

"Sasuke!!" Naruto Uzumaki said with a look of surprise.

The commander of the twenty-fifth detachment of the Fire Nation Ninja Force glanced at Naruto Uzumaki.

Thinking of the care that Hinata Ichiro had given Naruto Uzumaki, the commander of the 25th detachment of the Fire Country Ninja Force first confessed to Jiraiya, and then turned to Uchiha Sasuke and said, "Sasuke, here are your acquaintances." ”

"Come and say hello. ”

Hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke walked out of the 25th detachment of the Ninja Force of the Fire Country and came to Jiraiya and his party.

After taking the initiative to say hello to Jiraiya and his party, Sasuke Uchiha waited to return to the 25th detachment of the Ninja Force of the Land of Fire.

At this time, Sasuke Uchiha remembered what Hinata Ichiro had said to him.

Then, Sasuke Uchiha looked struggling.

"Sasuke, what's wrong with you?" asked Naruto Uzumaki with a concerned expression.

Naruto Uzumaki's concern awakens Sasuke Uchiha who is struggling.

Subsequently, Sasuke Uchiha said to the commander of the 25th detachment of the Fire Nation Ninja Force, "Captain Yamamoto, I would like to take a leave of absence for a while. ”

Sasuke Uchiha's leave of absence made Captain Yamamoto frown.

"I'm going to fulfill Hinata-sama's request!" said Sasuke Uchiha.

Knowing the reason for Sasuke Uchiha's leave, Captain Yamamoto immediately agreed, "I approved your leave!"
