"Jiraiya-sama, we met a strange team in front of us, and they said they wanted to see you. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Saying that, the Konoha ninja handed a letter to Jiraiya.

"Want to see me?"

Jiraiya opened the letter suspiciously, but in an instant, his face was full of joy.

"Let them in, no, I'll go by myself."

Saying that, he ran out excitedly.

Not far outside the camp, Jiraiya saw Chiba.

"Chiba! Sure enough, it's you! ”

Jirai didn't notice Chiba's face, and came over excitedly and hugged Chiba.

"Haha, you've grown into an adult."

While patting Chiba's shoulder, Jiraiya said happily: "I've heard about your things, especially Chiba's strategy of using water attack, it's really amazing, I know that I didn't misunderstand you at the beginning, and sure enough, you have amazing wisdom, you really defeated Hanzo, and sat down to something I didn't do at the beginning... And Yahiko, didn't they come with you? ”

Jiraiya kept saying something, telling him how much he missed Chiba and them.

It's just that when I saw Chiba's cold face, I realized that something was wrong.

"Chiba... What's wrong with you..."

At this time, it has not been long since Chiba and Iwa Shinobi have finished fighting, and the specific results of that battle have not yet been disseminated, after all, Chiba has just escaped and went straight to Jiraiya.

Yes, Jiraiya didn't know about the big battle they had with Iwa Shinobi, and he didn't know that Yahiko was dead.

Chiba looked at Jiraiya expressionlessly, and said lightly: "Yahiko... Dead..."

"Dead! How could it be! ”

The smile on Jiraiya's face instantly turned into consternation, and even sweat began to fall slightly on his forehead.

Gritting his teeth, he said in a low voice full of disbelief: "How is it possible, aren't you about to unify the rain before, how can you die..."

"It's Iwa Shinobi, Iwa Shinobi and our traitors to the rain ninja set up an ambush for us, and Yahiko was killed by the enemy in order to save me."

"What about Konan and Nagato?"

"Nagato and Konan..."

Chiba was slightly silent for a moment before continuing, "Nagato... Launched a forbidden technique with serious consequences, and now she is almost a wasted person, and it is difficult to even move, Xiao Nan is taking care of her, and as for me, I have completely separated from them for some reasons. ”

"How could it be..."

Jiraiya's face was full of despair.

"How could this be..."

He once had high hopes for him, making him think that he was a son of destiny who could change the world, but he would end up like this, which was really unacceptable to him.

Even if you don't talk about that prophecy, just saying that with the relationship between him and Chiba and a few people, he can't accept such a blow for a while.

After a long silence, I remembered something.

Obviously, Chiba should be the one who is even more sad than him, so he wants to comfort Chiba.

"Chiba, I know you're sadder than I am..."

Without waiting for Jiraiya to continue to say anything, Chiba interrupted: "Jiraiya-sensei, I'm fine now, I don't need anyone to comfort me, I'm only here for one purpose." ”

Saying that, a trace of cold fluctuations finally flashed on Chiba's expressionless face: "That is revenge, from the moment Yahiko died, the only meaning of my life was only revenge." ”

"Revenge..."

"That's right, Iwa Shinobi's men killed Yahiko, and I'm here to find an opportunity to fight with you and Iwa Shinobi, so that Iwa Shinobi can experience my pain."

Jiraiya looked at his disciple in front of him in astonishment, and he was never able to connect him with the previous Chiba with a smile on his face full of indifference and a slight smile.

After a while, Jiraiya said heavily: "Chiba, I know you're sad now, to be honest, I've seen a lot of people like you who just live for hatred, these people all endure great suffering and pain, even if they really succeed in revenge, all they get is endless emptiness and numbness, so, Chiba I hope you can..."

Without waiting for Jiraiya to continue speaking, Chiba interrupted him.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiraiya, I'm not here to hear this kind of teaching."

Chiba's face was full of indifference to Jiraiya's persuasion: "I only know that Yahiko is dead, and I need to avenge him, as for other things, I don't want to think about anything else, if Jiraiya-sensei you just want to talk to me about this, I think I can leave now." ”

Jiraiya was silent for a moment again, and then said sadly: "Okay, I understand, let's go over there and talk about it specifically..."

There is no doubt that Jiraiya is heartbroken at the moment, and within a day, he received the news that a disciple died, a disciple was crippled, and a disciple fell into the abyss and became an avenger.

Especially the last one, he had seen too many such people, all of whom did not end well, but he did not have any good way to pull him out, and could only watch him continue to fall into the darkness.

"I'm not free to help you attack Iwa Shinobi, I hope to get a regular mercenary contract, after all, I need financial and material resources to gather new people and set up an assassination and revenge organization dedicated to Iwa Shinobi."

As he spoke, Chiba handed over a contract that had already been prepared.

"That's my offer, if possible, I even hope that after the war, Konoha can support me in establishing my own organization base or even a small ninja village on the border of the Fire Country, or in the Grass Country."

Looking at the contract given by Chiba, Jiraiya's face was full of confusion.

"Chiba, although we in Konoha have indeed hired a lot of mercenaries and signed many similar contracts, the price of your contract is inevitably too high, especially if we want us to help you establish a ninja village, it is simply impossible."

"Huh-"

Chiba smiled indifferently: "I believe I'm worth the price." ”

Saying that, Chiba made a seal with both hands.

"Spiritism!"

"Bang!"

The huge body of the Sanshoyu suddenly appeared in front of Jiraiya.

Although many of the injuries on the Sanjiao Fish have not healed at this time, so it looks a little embarrassed, but this is indeed the Sanjiao Fish that moves the ninja world.

"It's Hanzo's sansho fish... Chiba, you even got this..."

Jiraiya became more and more curious about Chiba's experience, and he wanted to know what happened to Chiba's body.

"Regarding the lethality of the Sanjiao fish on the battlefield, I don't think I need to say more, you should also know it, right, is the price still high? In my opinion, my request is completely insignificant compared to what you can get by winning the rock ninja. ”

Saying that, Chiba smiled indifferently again: "If you still have doubts about my ability, I think we can use a clearer method to settle, for example, what is the merit of a thousand heads, and what is the merit of two thousand heads." ”

"Don't doubt my ability, from a year ago to now, the number of souls who have died directly or indirectly under my hands should have exceeded five thousand, and I don't think I mind taking a few thousand more from Iwa Shinobi."

Listening to Chiba's indifferent words that seemed to be taken for granted, Jiraiya couldn't help but feel a chill again, and he could feel that Iwa Shinobi was in trouble.
