“…… Call...... It's good that the stinky boy is still alive......"

After determining the approximate timeline and guessing from this, Naruto, who would have to attack the frog squad trio in a short time, naturally didn't dare to delay too much time. Instead, he meditated and contemplated, relying on the imprint of the Flying Thunder God technique that he had left on Yahiko's body to lock the exact location of Yahiko. It was unsurprisingly determined that Yahiko was in the middle of the Rain Hidden Village at this moment, and the coordinates were still moving, apparently surviving unharmed, which allowed Naruto to breathe a sigh of relief for a while.

It's just that Naruto, who was anxious to join Yahiko and the others as soon as possible, did not forget to take out the mask he obtained from his father Shuimen when he was subdued by the ancient kingdom of Loulan before setting off to find Yahiko, and used it to cover his appearance.

After all, not to mention for the time being, on the premise that Naruto mistakenly thought that the frog squad trio had completely erased the shared memories of getting along, Nagato and Konan, who were bound to continue to survive after the incident was over, learned about the existence of "Naruto Uzumaki" again......

In this incident, Naruto had a vague premonition that he would inevitably have a head-on conflict with Sanshoyu Hanzo, and it was also very likely to attract the attention of Sanshoyu Hanzo's partner, that is, the old fox Danzo, who sowed discord and caused this tragedy to happen! And in order to prevent himself from being a child, he attracted the attention of Tuan Zang too early, and even changed the course of history, so he died young. In the next course of action, Naruto naturally had to be more cautious and avoid causing too much influence and trouble to this incident as much as possible.

Of course, it was from the moment Naruto put on the mask......

The "leader" who had quietly appeared several times in Naruto's childhood was like a flash in the pan, and it was officially born......

And when Naruto traveled through time and descended on the Rain Hidden Village again......

What are Yahiko and the others, who have undergone earth-shaking changes in the past few years, doing?

……

In Yuyin Village, on an unknown embankment, two groups of ninjas with distinct positions were standing facing each other with solemn expressions.

And in the camp of one of these parties, the leader is Yahiko, who has become more and more calm and composed after transforming from a child to a teenager!

Of course, since Yahiko is here, it becomes clear who the leader of the other side of the confrontation is - it is the current ruler of Yuyin Village, Sanshoyu Hanzo, who is known as the demigod of the ninja world!

"The Great Luo of the Worlds"

It is worth mentioning that the standard clothing of the members of this real "Akatsuki Organization" founded by Yahiko is not the robe with red auspicious clouds on a black background that Naruto is familiar with, but a simple black robe with only a few line segments. And because of the influence of Nagato's reincarnation eye, Naruto was not able to erase the memory of the few days he and the three little ones had spent together, so that everyone's robes retained the symbol of the special memories left by Naruto and his party......

That is, when Hinata made new clothes for the three little ones, in order to protect their small stomachs that are prone to freezing and cold, they deliberately added an extra piece of fabric to the abdomen to keep warm, and Yahiko, who missed Naruto and his party, deliberately retained and transplanted to the uniform style of the members of the Xiao organization. Even with this as a proof, it is enough to see that even after several years of baptism, Yahiko and the others have never forgotten Naruto and his party!

“……”

And after being silent for a long time, Yahiko took the lead in plunging the weapon in his hand into the ground in front of him. Immediately let go of the handle of the knife and slowly walked forward.

“……！”

At the same time, although Xiao Nan had discussed it in advance, he already knew what Yahiko was thinking. He also knew that in order to break this deadlock, Yahiko had to show his sincerity in person. But when I saw my partner who got along day and night, and was about to face it alone, even the Sanshoyu Hanzo who was difficult to deal with even his teacher, I still couldn't help but feel a tension in my heart. Instinctively, he took a step forward and tried to pull Yahiko back into the group.

"Calm down, Xiaonan, it's going to be fine......"

Fortunately, I had already guessed that there would be such a scene, and before leaving, I specially told me to ask Nagato to pay attention to Xiaonan's emotions. So much so that in Xiao Nan's figure, he had just taken a step, and Nagato, who was quick with his eyes, reached out and gently pulled Xiao Nan's sleeve robe, so that Xiao Nan could quickly wake up. And then Xiao Nan's eyes changed, and after making sure that Xiao Nan had realized what he had to do, Nagato slowly loosened Xiao Nan's sleeve robe, and deliberately lowered the decibel of his words, and whispered softly to comfort him word by word.

"Trust Yahiko, he knows what to do."

It's just that because of the oppression brought by the title of "Ninja Demigod" of Sanshoyu Hanzo, it is enough to make people feel difficult to breathe, so although Nagato said so, after seeing Yahiko really as planned, he was alone and faced with the proud aura of Sanshoyu Hanzo, and the heavy oppression brought by it, Nagato's palm hidden in his sleeve robe still couldn't help but slowly clench into a fist. I was even more afraid that Hanzo Sanshoyu would play some conspiracy, and with the reincarnation eyes covered by the red bangs, he stared at the front of the opposite camp, the figure of Hanzo Sanshoyu standing leisurely.

After all, Nagato, the one of this timeline, has gradually mastered some of the abilities of the eye of reincarnation under the teaching of Jiraiya. And as long as Yahiko is harmed, Nagato, who regards Yahiko and Nagato as more important than his own life, will naturally do whatever it takes to make Sanshoyu Hanzo bear his thunderous anger!

"Oh? The pace is steady and powerful, but there is no fear of me at all...... It seems that it is really terrifying. ”

Fortunately, because he has not yet had contact with Tuanzang, and has not been brainwashed by Tuanzang's conspiracy theories, Sanshoyu Hanzo at this moment has not been mixed with the slightest evil thoughts in this meeting. Instead, in the past few years of silent observation, I sincerely admired the Xiao organization founded by Yahiko and others, and wanted to join forces with it to change the miserable status quo of the continuous war in Yuyin Village. So much so that after his eyes narrowed slightly and he looked at Yahiko with interest for a while, Sanshoyu Hanzo inserted his weapon into the ground in front of him, just like Yahiko, to show his sincerity in the peace talks, and at the same time, he deliberately kept the same pace as Yahiko and slowly approached him.

"How? Have you thought about it? Taking the initiative to negotiate with the three major powers and persuade them to give up the war is not an easy task that can be achieved with a few words...... If you're just young and vigorous, and you want to express yourself, then it's too late for you to turn back now, kid. ”

Between the words, although Sanshoyu Hanzo had already planned it, he agreed to Yahiko's proposal and handed over the most difficult "bone" to lobby the three major countries to the Akatsuki organization, which was founded and led by Yahiko, and which rose rapidly. But in the heart of Sanshoyu Hanzo, he didn't think that those big ninja countries who were mercenary, and could ignore the life and death of the ninjas and the people in their own ninja village, would care about the voice of Yuyin Village. So that his nature is not indiscriminate and bloodthirsty, and it can even be said that he loves and cherishes talents, and he couldn't help but ask rhetorically at the juncture when the cooperation was about to be reached, and calmly talked about the stakes.

“…… Well, no problem, we've all figured it out! ”

Of course, Sanshoyu Hanzo's kind advice was obviously beyond Yahiko's expectations. Then, after being silent for a long time, carefully identifying and digesting, and making sure that what the person in front of him was saying was the truth, not a mockery of hypocrisy, Yahiko nodded his head in response while his hostility subsided slightly. While stretching out his hand, he took the initiative to shake hands with Sanshoyu Hanzo.

"After all, our original intention is not to compete for power...... I just hope that before I reunite with them, I can help Yuyin Village regain its vitality, so that when they come back, they can be proud of us! ”

Between the words, just as when he got along with Naruto, Yahiko would rather leave Yuyin Village than continue to follow Naruto's party, so that today's Yahiko, although still using non-force methods, to restore peace to the world as his lifelong dream. But the reason that drove him to do so was the result of the subtle influence that Naruto and his party were subtly affected when they treated each other gently.

And Yahiko has always believed that the day of reunion with Naruto and his party will come sooner or later, and it is the only reason for Yahiko, who has been tempered by life and death in the past few years, and has gradually become much more calm and sophisticated, to show a gentle smile from the bottom of his heart!

"That's why you work so hard to make 'them' proud...... It seems that the people you are talking about have a profound impact on you. ”

At the same time, as a demigod in the ninja world, Hanzo, who has long been accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, can naturally easily distinguish which ones are true and which are lies that make people from the lake. So much so that after a short period of stunned, Sanshoyu Hanzo's eyes, under the influence of the expectation revealed in Yahiko's eyes, became a little gentle, and at the same time, he involuntarily began to believe that the young and vigorous little guy in front of him might really be able to do it, bringing peace back to Yuyin Village, a feat that even he may not be able to succeed in. While his face naturally changed his name from a slightly contemptuous pronoun to a direct name, in a relatively equal way, he did not hesitate to hold Yahiko's palm tightly.

"So...... I wish us all the best in our cooperation, Yahiko. ”

And seeing that the leaders of the two sides have reached an agreement on this. The tense atmosphere that originally shrouded everyone and seemed to be ready to fight at any time quickly eased and dissipated a lot as they looked at each other. Immediately, when Yahiko and Sanshoyu Hanzo talked to each other with a smile on their faces, and supplemented the possible loopholes and shortcomings in the plan to lobby the three major powers, they had already decided to establish an alliance in this regard, and their subordinates, who were all from Yuyin Village, followed the example of their own leaders, and shook hands with each other and talked with each other.

"Whew...... Fortunately, Yahiko did it......"

Of course, as partners who live and die with Yahiko, Nagato and Konan, who have been watching with fear, are also completely slowing down and calming their uneasy hearts in front of this happy scene. Even Xiao Nan patted his chest with emotion, as if he was asking questions to Nagato beside him, and as if he was talking to himself, he whispered softly with a smile.

"I can't believe it...... That's Sanshoyu Hanzo, that famous demigod in the ninja world! Now not only does it appear alive in front of our eyes, but it is also willing to take the initiative to put down the shelf and choose to form an alliance with us...... All of this is incredible! I wonder if we're dreaming! ”

"What's so surprising about that? In the words of Naruto's brother, anything is possible. ”

When hearing Xiao Nan's emotion, although Nagato deeply agreed in his heart, when he restrained the hostility in the eyes of reincarnation and was no longer as vigilant and vigilant as before, he verbally responded to Xiao Nan's words, but he unceremoniously teased Yahiko.

"What's more, he's Yahiko...... For him, an idealistic silly boy, there is nothing he dare not do. ”

Of course, although Yahiko has a helpless tone......

But whether it is Nagato himself, or Konan and Yahiko, they all know it......

Yahiko's ideal peaceful world is also the dream world that the three of them hope for together when they get along with Naruto and his party! In a sense, it is not an exaggeration to say that today's Xiao organization is full of "fools" who are not afraid of difficulties and obstacles and just want to transform the blueprint of the ideal world into reality little by little.

"Then again, since you're going to lobby the three major powers...... So where do we go first? ”

It is precisely because of this that when Xiao Nan heard Nagamen's upright arrogant speech, he only smiled a little more in his eyes, but he did not pierce Nagato's inconsistent remarks. After a slight pause, Xiao Nan, who was delicate, pretended to be distressed and naturally changed the topic.

"If I'm not mistaken, our Yuyin Village is located right in the center of the three major countries. So theoretically, no matter where you go first, the distance is the same, right? ”

"This kind of thing, the answer in the hearts of the three of us, is naturally unanimous......"

As soon as Xiao Nan's voice fell, a smile of expectation appeared at the corner of Nagato's mouth. Then he pretended to be serious, clasped his hands between his arms, and responded confidently.

"Since Brother Naruto and Mr. Jiraiya are both ninjas from the Konoha Ninja Village...... Then our next step, naturally, is to go to the Fire Country first! ”

"After all, they just said that they couldn't be by our side all the time......"

"But they have never said that after our strength is mature and we have enough strength to protect ourselves, we can't take the initiative to find them~"
