At this time, in the most mysterious and unique wet bone forest among the three holy places of the legendary psychic beasts in the ninja world, the slug immortal of this world, a mysterious existence called the living slug, was silently watching the Tsunade in front of it.

After a few moments, the living slug spoke, and its once soft and gentle feminine voice became ethereal and holy.

"You...... Seems to have changed, Tsunade-sama.

It's very different from what I used to feel. ”

Tsunade wasn't surprised by the slug's judgment, and she didn't think about hiding it from her partner who had been with her for most of her life in another world.

She nodded, and spoke:

"It's complicated to talk about, but, Lord Slug.

I'm still the Tsunade of Konoha, the last inheritance of the Thousand Hands clan in Konoha.

Trust me on this. ”

"Of course, Tsunade~"

The slightly playful name of the live slug made Tsunade smile when he first came to the Wet Bone Forest in his twenties......

—————— Tsunade's Girlhood Memories Kill————————

"Wow! So there's such a big snail here! ”

The girl who was still at the airport pointed to the huge blue and white body of the slug immortal in front of her and sighed in surprise.

The trumpet slug lying on her shoulder corrected her helplessly:

"I've said it before, Tsunade.

I'm not a snail. ”

The huge slug in front of him also turned its two tentacle-like eyes to Tsunade, and a voice came from its body:

"It's a slug......

If you make a mistake, I'll be sad. ”

The girl's eyes widened, and she pointed to the huge slug in front of her, then turned her head to look at the small slug lying on her shoulder.

"You...... You guys?! ”

"Yes, you guessed it right.

I'm the only one here.

On your shoulders is my splinter. ”

Tsunade as a girl didn't have the same fear and aversion to this slimy mollusk as the average girl.

Curious, she walked up to the giant body of the live slug in a few steps, and reached out to touch its wet body.

"That's amazing!"

Tsunade, who is more like a boy, exclaimed, and was very happy in his heart.

"That idiot big pervert from Jiraiya!

In the future, you will never be able to show off those toads of Miaomu Mountain in front of me again! ”

"That...... Xiao Tsunade, don't call the toad clan of Miaomu Mountain so rudely.

I have a good relationship with them. ”

————————————————————————

"Tsunade, have you really made a decision?"

At this moment, the live slug no longer seems to be the gentle and intelligent psychic beast.

There was solemnity and seriousness in its tone, and it examined Tsunade in front of it.

Tsunade nodded silently, and then she slowly unbuttoned her blouse.

A body that has led to a crime is revealed.

However, at this time, her body was densely covered with more than a dozen wounds of different sizes.

According to Tsunade's constitution, the scars that should have been restored in a few minutes have miraculously not healed.

The surface of the wound takes on an unhealthy paleness.

These were the intercolumnar cell tissues she had obtained from Orochimaru the night before.

Without the help of others, Tsunade silently transplanted these cells from his grandfather's Senju Pillar.

Although she has been entangled in her heart, she has proved her determination with her actions.

So...... The protagonist of our book is really a nosy guy with a mouse.

The intercolumnar cells seemed to fuse perfectly with Tsunade herself, and her body cells were not assimilated too much by the white tissue.

And Tsunade has also sensed it in just over a day.

What a powerful power the cell tissues of these grandfathers who are very bad-looking!

In the previous competition, which was the same as the farce of the head of Nadeshiko Hidden Village.

In the past, she could indeed win easily, but she would never be so inflated to make a 100% empty-handed operation.

The reason why she didn't attack at all was mainly because she had just changed her costume and was worried that she wouldn't be able to master the strength......

The name of the competition is actually to assist, and Tsunade is not stupid.

That's a living person, not a stake, and if a person accidentally punches someone down and knocks him cold, it will be counterproductive.

The living slug felt the Tsunade in front of him, and said with some surprise:

"This huge Yang Attribute Chakra!

I see, is it a gift from the Lord of the Thousand Hands Pillar decades ago? ”

Tsunade nodded and said with a wry smile:

"None of our unscrupulous descendants can truly inherit the strength of our grandfather.

I had to use this method......"

"Tsunade, you're wrong.

The Six Dao Immortals are even more powerful than your grandfather, but for thousands of years, who can truly reach the realm he was back then? ”

Tsunade looked at the live slug and said with some surprise:

"Have you ever seen the legendary Six Dao Immortals?"

"Well, I was only a little bit old at that time."

The voice of the live slug carries remembrance and adoration.

"What a strong and kind man he was.

Tsunade, I'm afraid you can't imagine that he is a human being.

Not to mention Chakra, a force that was still nascent back then.

Even the body can integrate the power of nature more perfectly than we do.

This is what you are talking about now, the immortal human body. ”

"Immortal body?!"

"That's right, your grandfather, Lord Senjutsuma.

He can be said to be among the descendants of the Six Dao Immortals, who has inherited the existence of his immortal body inheritance to the greatest extent.

His immortal skills are different from any of our Three Holy Land Immortals.

Is that...... The power of the sacred tree that stood between heaven and earth back then. ”

Hearing this, Tsunade remembered Orochimaru's words and frowned slightly.

She lifted her palm, and with her other hand, she stamped the seal with one hand, trying to work with the chakra in her body that came from her grandfather.

A few minutes passed, and a tiny twig finally barely protruded from her palm.

Tsunade looked at the live slug with a wry smile and said:

"Sure enough......

Even if I transplanted my grandfather's cell tissue, it took so long to barely get such a useless piece of wood out. ”

"So, what is the reason why you came to me?"

Tsunade looked up at the live slugs and spoke:

"Please, teach me the immortal art of the Wet Bone Forest!

Right now, there's a big idiot who has put himself in a desperate situation. ”

Speaking of which, Jiraiya's obscene smiling face, which is never serious, and the chic tall back in the sunset appeared in front of her eyes.

The corners of Tsunade's mouth curled up slightly, and he continued:

"I can't afford to watch him go anymore!"

—————— camera switch——————————

In the building of the headquarters of the Rain Country Dawn Organization, Zilai also faced the questioning of Tiandao Payne, and without a trace of hesitation on his face, he spoke:

"Although it doesn't make much sense to say this now.

Believe it or not, if I had known your situation back then......"

The muscles on his cheeks quivered, but he continued:

"I'm sure I won't betray Konoha.

But I will do my best to save you!

If I really can't do it, I'm willing.

I will die with you. ”

Hearing this, both Tiandao Payne and Xiao Nan lost their minds for a while.

The body is hidden deep in a room in the building, and Nagato, who is skinny and has disabled legs, finally shows a trace of nostalgia and hesitation on his face.

"Self-...... Teacher"

"Nagato, these eyes you have contain the power to change the entire world.

I hope that I will be able to pass on my ideas to you.

In the future, haha! Maybe I may not see that day.

But I hope that you can use these eyes to bring peace to the world. ”

What the teacher taught him more than 20 years ago......

I haven't completely forgotten it......

"You and Xiao Nan...... You have to live it well.

Nagato ...... You are the real savior......"

Yahiko slammed into the kunai he was holding in his hand, and his dying words echoed in his ears for a long time.

On the battlefield, the six reincarnation eyes of Payne looked at Jiraiya together, and Heavenly Dao spoke:

"Mr. Jiraiya......

Since you have repeatedly referred to the past, then.

Do you remember the conversation we had back then? ”

Jiraiya looked at this person who looked very much like Yahiko, but his eyes and words were extremely cold, and nodded.

The quiet and introverted red-haired boy in the rain was enlightening him after the first killing.

"I just want to protect both of them.

No matter what kind of pain it comes with! ”

Heavenly Dao Payne stretched out a finger and pointed at his face, and finally spoke:

My voice came from Yahiko's mouth.

My eyes, in his eyes.

Can't you, who have been in this world for decades, guess it......"

Speaking of this, Heavenly Dao Payne's pair of reincarnation eyes suddenly widened, and his voice was already cold:

"What really happened?

Well, I'll fulfill your last wish before you die!

Xiao Nan, you tell him! ”

Konan, who was floating in the sky, heard Nagato's words, nodded, and looked down at Jiraiya.

"At that time, Sanshoyu Hanzo, who was still the head of Yuyin Village, informed us that he was willing to join forces with us to jointly negotiate an armistice between Konoha and Iwa Shinobi.

But this is a trap.

The day before the negotiation began, I was on a daily patrol mission and was poisoned by Hanzo's Rain Shinobi.

Then, the day of the negotiations......"

Speaking of this, Xiao Nan's face couldn't help but show a sad look.

"Nope! There is no negotiation at all!

All of this is just a conspiracy against our Xiao organization at the instigation of Konoha Shimura Danzo!

Hanzo took me hostage and asked Nagato to ......"

Speaking of which, Xiao Nan, who has always been sad and joyless since that upheaval, has choked up, tears sliding down her cheeks.

"He asked me to...... Kill Yahiko!

In exchange for my life and Xiao Nan's.

Yahikota ......"

Nagato's voice came from the mouth of Tendo Payne, and he suddenly ripped open the robe that covered his body, revealing the hideous wound on his abdomen.

"When I was panicking, he crashed headfirst into the kunui in my hands and committed suicide.

This kind of pain, Mr. Jiraiya, you haven't experienced it, have you?

have been dependent on each other for more than ten years......

Companions of life and death, the pain of dying in their own hands!

I realized it! ”

At this time, Jirai's eyes widened.

I see...... I see!

This is all that déjà vu, that's what it is......

The fate that has not changed, the great toad immortal, I understand......

The red lines gradually receded from his face in two, and he looked sideways at Fukasaku on his shoulder, and spoke:

"Fukasaku-sama, go back."

Fukasaku looked at Jiraiya in surprise and shouted:

"What are you kidding?!

Xiao Jilai, this is not just a matter between you and your apprentices.

Let the people with the Vision of God cause disaster to the world, have you forgotten the instructions of the Great Immortals?! ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Jiraiya's mouth.

"Of course I ...... Didn't forget!

It's time to make my choice. ”

He reached for a kunai and put his hand against his chest.

"Little Jiraiya?! What are you doing?! ”

Jiraiya looked at the corpse of the disciple in front of him who was most like his own with sincere and calm eyes, and said:

"I admit that all this is Konoha's sin.

Nagato, I don't want to ask you to let go of your hatred, it's just ......

Even if you want to be an enemy of Konoha, at this time, I am not qualified to stop you with empty words.

I just hope that you can change your approach.

Don't let these eyes, this power, that God has given you, be used for cold slaughter, okay? ”

"Jiraiya-sensei, I called you that for the last time.

I don't know if you're as naïve as you were twenty years ago......"

Tiandao Payne's originally expressionless face actually squeezed out a sneering smile.

"It's still a hypocritical old man, just like the Sanshoyu Hanzo who was so respected by us back then but took advantage of this!

You keep saying that you don't want to stop me with empty language?!

Isn't that exactly what you're doing right now? ”

"Flutter!"

Without saying anything, the kunai in Jiraiya's hand had already pierced into his chest.

The Shima Immortal gripped his left hand tightly, preventing Kunai from going further into his chest.

"What are you doing?! Little self-raising! ”

Blood was already flowing from the corners of Jiraiya's mouth, and he was still looking at Tendo Payne, or Yahiko, sincerely.

"As a teacher......

In the disciple ...... When I was needed the most......

I didn't show up with you.

As a Konoha ...... The high-level ninja.

I didn't ...... Aware of the dark plans of the roots......

I'm ashamed of you and I'm ashamed of Konoha!

Nagato ...... I will atone for my sins with my death!

Don't give up...... Back then, we agreed...... ideal, okay? ”

Nagato's body was in the dark, quietly watching the man with his body swaying slightly through Payne's shared vision.

The innocent smile on his face was the same as Yahiko before he died......

When he and Xiao Nan were sorting out Yahiko's body and preparing to make him into the most powerful Heavenly Dao Payne.

Yahiko still had that sincere smile on his face......

"It's really nostalgic......

Naive! ”

With a hint of indifferent smile on his face, Tiandao Payne walked towards Jiraiya step by step.

"Jiraiya, you're still as innocent as ever!

And I, after going through endless pain, have grown! ”

The other five Payne behind him followed closely in the footsteps of the Heavenly Dao.

"I've ...... From a mortal to a god!

The ideal of peace, I have never given up!

But the way to achieve peace has long since changed.

God's duty is to put an end to this war-torn world!

All you need to do is create the most powerful forbidden weapon in the world and sell it to the great powers......

Oh, this seems to be similar to Konoha's behavior decades ago. ”

In the surprised gaze of Jiraiya, Fukasaku, and Shima Immortals, black chakra sticks stretched out from among the six Payne long sleeves.

"But as long as you make a forbidden technique that is more powerful than the tailed beast, hmm!

The worst thing is to reach the power of the Nine-Tails Rebellion in Konoha back then......

My initial ideal was to be able to cause hundreds of millions of casualties in an instant. ”

The six Paynes had already surrounded Jiraiya, and the Heavenly Dao stretched out his arms towards Jiraiya.

"Let the great powers fear the lethality of this weapon, and extinguish their ambitions because of the possible attack on themselves before they start a war!

That's my way. ”

Speaking of this, Tiandao took one last look at Jiraiya.

"Before you die, you can learn this, and you can leave without regrets, right?

As a god, I respect your thoughts as a mortal.

It's good that you're willing to atone for your mistakes back then, and I appreciate it. ”

"Flutter!"

The chakra stick in Tiandao's hand pierced deep into Jiraiya's body, and he leaned out slightly and whispered in Jiraiya's ear:

"In return, you'll replace an old one with the new Payne.

You are very strong, and you will be a good tool for me to achieve my dreams.

Think about it, in the plan to destroy Konoha in the near future.

The legendary Sanninja Jiraiya wears the clothes of our organization and destroys everything you hold dear with your own hands......

Interesting, isn't it? ”

The other five Payne are battling Fukasaku and Shima, and the immortal couple of Myoki Mountain are about to be defeated by ten hands.

At this time, a few kilometers away from here, a group of Konoha root ninjas were breaking through the defense line of the rain ninja village regardless of casualties.

Suddenly, a small slug crawled out of the shoulders of a detachment leader at the root, its tentacle-like eyes trembling slightly.

"Not good! Chakra ...... of Jiraiya"

The slug immediately said to the detachment leader at the root:

"You, try to get to a commanding height!"

The captain of the root part did not question this strange-sounding order in the slightest, and immediately abandoned his subordinates, and in a few steps jumped to the tallest steel building not far away.

Ten seconds later, he was already standing on the roof of the steel building.

"Throw me in that direction and do your best."

"Whoosh!"

Trumpet slugs tumbled under the rain curtain in the sky.

……

"Interesting, isn't it?"

Heavenly Dao Payne's words did not fall.

"Spiral Pill!"

Jiraiya waved his hand in despair and anger, and the spiral pill in his palm was about to hit this former disciple of his.

"HRE Celestial Sign!"

……

The trumpet slug finally landed on the surface, and it was like a nimble little fish moving rapidly below the surface.

Then, its blue-and-white body grew little by little in the water.

In this Yuyin Village, which was established by the sea, the few civilians have actually lived a pretty good life in recent years.

In addition to collecting discarded weapons and ninja tools on the battlefield and recasting them, they at least have the option of fishing.

A few fishermen were still talking about today's harvest at the beach, but they didn't notice that wisps of scarlet red had appeared in the water not far away.

……

Zilai was also hit by a Shinra Heavenly Expedition of the Heavenly Dao and flew to the sea behind him.

"Little Jiraiya!" X2

He wanted to stand on the surface of the water as usual, but the black rod on his chest had disrupted the chakra cycle in his body.

“…… Fast! Come on! ”

He shouted at Fukasaku and Shima.

Then his eyes were obscured by a black robe of hunting style.

"Flutter!"

"Flutter!"

Several chakra black rods pierced Jiraiya's body.

He didn't have the strength to say anything, his vision blurred.

Xiao Nan landed on the ground and came behind Heavenly Dao Payne.

She looked at the unusually miserable Jiraiya with an unbearable face, and said softly:

"So be it......

Don't make use of his corpse anymore. ”

Tiandao quietly looked at Jiraiya, who had sunk to the surface, and after a few seconds, he nodded, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

……

The light and shadow on the other side of the water gradually became trance in Jiraiya's line of sight.

Wisps of blood-colored bubbles poured out of his mouth.

Originally...... It hurts so much......

That's what it is...... My original destiny?

The frog at the bottom of the well sank into the sea.

Great Immortal ...... My choice has failed.

Tsunade...... I can't go back......

Just when Jiraiya's consciousness was already blurring, above the water, in the room where the headquarters of the Akatsuki organization connected to the sea.

The six Paynes suddenly turned around and looked down at the sea.

The blue-and-white slug, like a blue whale, emerges from the depths of the ocean with its huge body.

Jiraiya suddenly felt as if he was wrapped in a warm environment.

Streams of massive chakras with the breath of life were healing his body.

He struggled, and his eyes finally opened a slight slit.

Now...... Are they two translucent balls?

No, this familiar shape, this touch!

He desperately looked up, and Tsunade's face with a hint of anger appeared in his field of vision.

The body of the huge slug has been fused with the slug, and the translucent Tsunade is holding Jiraiya.
