Not to mention for the time being, Sasuke, who was beaten in the face of the second senior brother because of Naruto's "communiqué personal vendetta", drew circles there without tears......

At the end of dinner, the frog trio, who were able to free up free time, finally got together officially. Even Yahiko, who was already puzzled by all the changes that happened during his coma, naturally couldn't wait to find Xiao Nan to get the answer he wanted under Naruto's reminder.

It was also in this process that Naruto, who was pretending to be serious and controlling his own perception, was able to confirm it with tears and laughter......

When Xiao Nan and Naruto meet, they will choose to find Naruto to "touch porcelain", and it is really Naruto who "found himself"!

In the final analysis, Naruto, who was anxious to confirm the approximate age he was in, and only made a cursory change in appearance, swaggered through the Rain Hidden Village, obviously did not know that the Rainy Hidden Village at this moment was shrouded in a lifeless atmosphere because of the fact that the war had just ended.

In this case, the residents of Yuyin Village, who have been traumatized by the war and even have a full meal, have become a kind of luxury, let alone have the leisure to carry out any entertainment activities. Even when he walked in the village, he was like a walking corpse, hanging his head weakly, looking lifeless. And then compared to Naruto, who walked with his head held high, full of spirit, and looked around with interest from time to time......

Well, anyone who looks at it can guess that Naruto is not a native resident of Rain Hidden Village at all, right? With this as a proof, he compared the yellow-skinned residents of Yuyin Village with the ruddy-faced Naruto...... Even Xiao Nan, a child who is not deeply involved in the world, can easily distinguish which side is more likely to successfully obtain food and money! And in a sense, the encounter between Xiao Nan and Naruto was really created by Naruto himself.

It's just that the unexpected encounter between himself and Xiao Nan can ensure the survival of all the members of the frog squad trio, and make their encounter with Jiraiya an inevitable event...... Naruto, who secretly used this as a lesson to keep himself awake and memorized, didn't regret this encounter he accidentally created.

And when it comes to the encounter with Jiraiya, I have to say that the underground intelligence network built by those ruffians who succumbed to the "Naruko" probation [Physics Department], as the head snake of Yuyin Village, is still a little useful after all. So much so that from the moment Naruto and Xiao Nan met, only a day and a half or so had passed, and Naruto had already roughly grasped the whereabouts of the Konoha Sannin in this timeline.

Of course, in addition to the cooperation of the local head snake, which made it easier for Naruto to find someone, "Naruko" gradually spread throughout the "beautiful girl" character of the entire Yuyin Village, so that Jiraiya, who is lustful by nature, couldn't help but appear in public in Yuyin Village after all. and Jiraiya and others in the war, the current ruler of Yuyin Village, the demigod of the ninja world, Sanshoyu Hanzo, personally awarded the title of "Konoha Three Ninja", and became famous in the ninja world, so that the image of Jiraiya became a household name in Yuyin Village for a while, which greatly facilitated the ruffians to search for Jiraiya's whereabouts...... These two prerequisites are also important factors that cannot be ignored to ensure that Naruto can find the whereabouts of the three of them.

But in any case, in this short period of time, Naruto couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when all the members of the frog squad trio were "resurrected in a full state", and even more so that they found Jiraiya's whereabouts before leaving. Even with Naruto, before the Konoha Sanninja set off and was ready to return to the Konoha Ninja Village, he managed to make the frog squad trio "meet by accident" with Jiraiya as described in the original plot, and thus conclude a master-apprentice relationship, which can be regarded as a great achievement!

However, Naruto, who gathered the frog squad trio together and announced that he had found a guardian for them who could treat them well, and thus logically thought that his journey in this timeline could be completely over, was never expected......

“…… I don't want it! ”

When the frog trio heard Naruto's proposal, their faces were not as excited and anticipatory as Naruto had guessed, because they were about to get the "home" they had dreamed of for a long time. On the contrary, the original smile of the little face dissipated, and while twisting into a bitter gourd face, he almost didn't think about it, so he refused in unison.

"Huh? Why? Are you afraid that he will bully you? ”

This unexpected answer made Naruto's originally prepared words suddenly suffocated back into his stomach. Immediately, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Naruto, who was puzzled, raised his hand and scratched his head lightly, while tentatively making a sound, calming the strong resistance and resistance that the three little ones in front of him inexplicably generated.

"I can assure you that this uncle named Jiraiya, although he is also a ninja in Konoha Village, he is kind-hearted and will definitely ......"

"Don't do that!"

It's a pity that before Naruto could finish speaking, Yahiko angrily rejected Naruto's proposal. After pausing slightly, Yahiko, who confirmed each other's eyes with Xiao Nan and Nagato beside him, continued categorically.

"If you want to give it to us, to someone else...... We'd rather go back to the bottom of that bridge! ”

"Shhh...... No, you'll wait...... I'm not kidding you this time. ”

After seeing the three little ones in front of him, all showing a strong sense of resistance, Naruto suddenly felt a tightness in his chest - after all, whether it was Naruto himself, who didn't like to lose his temper with children, or the three people in front of him, he had to be willing to contact Jiraiya to ensure that history was not affected...... In public and private, Naruto could only carefully soothe the emotions of the three little ancestors - and then raised his hand to his forehead with a smile, slowly adjusted his tone, and continued seriously.

"Didn't you already know? It's impossible for us to stay in Yuyin Village forever, so we promised you that we would find you a ...... before leaving."

"Then we'll go with you!"

It's a pity that before Naruto could finish speaking, Yahiko didn't hesitate to speak up and say the joint decision of the three little ones. Then before Naruto could respond, Xiao Nan, who had the most gentle personality among the three little ones, took over the conversation and said solemnly to Naruto word by word.

"Anyway, in Yuyin Village, there is nothing worth our nostalgia...... So, Brother Naruto, we don't want to be separated from you even more than staying here! ”

"Shhh...... No...... You ...... "New Lewen."

It was also at this time that Naruto realized that he accidentally rescued and saved the lives of Yahiko and Nagato, who were seriously ill and bedridden, but also because of the order of the time of meeting, the status of his group in the hearts of the three little ones obviously surpassed that of Naruto, who had never met. After thinking about it for a long time, he really couldn't think of a reason why these three little guys could voluntarily continue to stay in Yuyin Village, Naruto, who felt speechless, had to start the backup plan in that helpless emotion.

"Ahh......h Come on, it's time for you to do it, or I might be unable to resist it and want to take them all with me. ”

"Huh? Do it? Sasuke's brother? What does it mean...... Hmmm......"

When he heard Naruto's words, the three little ones were shocked, and they vaguely realized that something was wrong. But before the three little ones could get an answer from Naruto's mouth, they could turn their backs. Sasuke's figure, like a ghost, quietly emerged from Naruto's shadow quickly. And then under the scarlet gaze, the three little ones who were caught off guard all fell to the ground without exception, and lost consciousness.

"Whew...... That's it, you're good to go. ”

And after Yahiko and the others fainted and lost consciousness, Sasuke closed the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye that he had gradually mastered. Immediately, as if relieved, he let out a sigh of relief as he watched Naruto bend over, as he did when he treated a young Itachi, and erased the experiences of the past few days from the memories of the three little ones one by one. He raised his eyebrows slightly and complained to Naruto angrily.

"I told you a long time ago, just erase their memories directly, you have to say something and let it be...... In the end, don't you still have to use the old way? ”

"There's no way, Grandpa Jiraiya and them, they're going to leave Yuyin Village this afternoon...... If the memories are erased, I can't guarantee that they won't be hostile to Grandpa Jiraiya. So, I don't really want to do that until they say no. ”

At the same time, as the formulator of the backup plan, Naruto naturally began to prepare to seal the memories of the three little ones the moment Sasuke made his move. Immediately, the sealing technique was implanted into the bodies of the three little ones one by one, so that they would forget about their encounter with Naruto and his party, and explained angrily.

"After all, if because of this, they can't worship Grandpa Jiraiya as a teacher...... Then the history in our impression will change a lot. ”

Of course, after completing the sealing of the memory, Naruto, who had saved Yahiko's life in the next timeline, did not forget to take this opportunity to leave a teleportation mark of the Flying Thunder God's technique.

But what is different from the past is that Naruto only marked the teleportation on Yahiko alone, but did not add such an "insurance measure" to Nagato and Konan.

This is not to say that Naruto, who knows the development of history, is not worried about what will happen to Nagato and Konan......

It's because Naruto clearly remembers that when he was out of control and desperately ran to Yuyin Village to rescue Jiraiya, the coordinates of the Flying Thunder God technique that he sensed and searched for were only the one that remained on Jiraiya's broken arm. So much so that in the case of Obito, a living example that proves that the mark of the Flying Thunder God's art will remain forever, Naruto can be sure that he—or rather, the "future" self at that time—has not left a teleportation mark on Nagato and Konan from beginning to end.

In this case, although Naruto himself did not understand what the "future" himself thought, why not add an insurance measure to Konan and Nagato, who were timed by Hanzo and Danzo and faced dangers not much lower than Yahiko. But with the implementation a foregone conclusion, Naruto hesitated again and again, so he had to give up the idea of adding to the snake for the time being.

What's more, unlike Yahiko, Konan and Nagato will both survive well, at least until they meet Naruto in the "past" time and space. Yahiko, on the other hand, will break away from the timeline with Naruto, like Sakushige Hagi, because of his fate of "going to die", and become a "dead man" who no longer lives in the world in every sense.

Under this premise, the impact on history caused by only doing things to Yahiko is naturally negligible compared to the fact that the three of them have teleportation marks at the same time. Even Naruto can only comfort himself and pray for the moment, hoping that Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan can understand the same as they do now, and even if they grow, they will still maintain the habit of collective action. In order to facilitate Naruto's completion of another time crossing, even if they encounter an unexpected crisis, Naruto can quickly rush to their side by locking on Yahiko's location.

“…… Okay, let them sleep here first. ”

Thinking of this, Naruto gradually suppressed the reluctance and reluctance in his heart, and slowly stood up again. Then, in that complicated emotion, he beckoned lightly, signaling Sasuke to follow him out of the room, so as not to wake up the three little guys in advance.

"Thanks to your illusion hypnosis last night, these three little ones have overslept today, and they haven't had time for breakfast and lunch...... So, if nothing else, as long as they are about to wake up, put them near Grandpa Jiraiya, and they will take the initiative to ask Grandpa Jiraiya for food. ”

"I hope so......"

At the same time, seeing Naruto's figure, after stepping out of the room, Sasuke raised his hand and scratched his head thoughtfully as he stepped forward. While turning his head slightly, he looked at the three small figures who fell softly to the ground, without any movement.

"Strange, why do I always feel like something is not right...... Is it my delusion? ”

Between the words, Sasuke, who frowned and thought for a long time, did not get an answer to his doubts, and did not see anything wrong, simply shrugged his shoulders, then left the room, and closed the door with his hand.

And just after the figures of Sasuke and Naruto left completely, leaving only the frog team trio, they stayed here alone......

"You must learn from yourself, otherwise it will affect history...... What does that mean? ”
