The rain is hidden, and the sound of wind and rain is overwhelming.

Surrounded by a large inland lake, the village resembles a city floating on water.

Looking through the layers of rain curtains, even the lights shining on the tower seemed to be hazy and slightly distorted in the rain.

At dusk, the village seems to be free from night and day, as long as it is in a rainy place where even the sun cannot shine.

At this moment, the water waves on the embankment suddenly trembled, and a palm-sized black shadow rushed out of the water, and then landed steadily on the water, making a croaking sound.

The toad stared at the ninja village on the water in front of him with wide eyes, there was no city wall around it, and as long as he crossed the first line of defense, he could easily enter the rain hide.

After watching for a long time, the toad opened its mouth wide and suddenly stretched out a human hand from its mouth, and then the whole person came out of the toad's mouth and landed on the water.

It is Jiraiya.

As soon as he came out, he cast his eyes on the top of Yuyin Village not far away, and he specially asked the toad of Miaomu Mountain to choose a relatively remote entry point for Yuyin, so that he could smoothly avoid the eyes and ears of the Yuyin ninja and directly reach the central tower of Yuyin.

"I'm sorry for you, I'll do the rest alone."

Jiraiya waved his hand to the toad next to him, and then rushed towards Yuyin against the incoming wind and rain. The toad croaked twice and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

······

"Huh? This chakra feeling ......."

Nagato, located at the base of the tower, in front of the base of the golem, is cross-legged and his hands are sealed, constantly making his chakra resonate with the golem.

Xu was aware of something, and Nagato, who was concentrating on communicating with the golem, suddenly opened his eyes, and the reincarnation eye, which had no emotional fluctuations, crossed a bright metallic luster.

For a while, there have been ninjas trying to infiltrate the interior of Yuyin, and this kind of thing has already been known to Nagato through the rain that landed over Yuyin Village.

But basically, these infiltrators were all dealt with by Bai Jue, or they were lucky enough to break through Bai Jue's level, and they would also be quietly wiped out by Xiao Nan in the village, and there was no need for him to personally send Payne to do it.

But this time the intruder sensed, Chakra is extraordinary, he is a ninja with considerable strength, and Chakra's breath makes his calm heart also emerge with a trace of nostalgia.

Immediately, this nostalgic mood was instantly extinguished by him, leaving no trace of it.

"It's not the right time for you to come, Mr. Jiraiya..... In that case, it can only be a break with you here."

......

In a morgue deep on the top floor of the tower.

The six corpses that were originally lying on the stone platform like dead bodies opened their eyes at the same time, and in the darkness, they showed a hunting gaze staring at their prey, and they came down from the stone platform and stood firmly on the ground.

®

Jiraiya walked into the labyrinthine steel pipes, which are the plumbing systems that dredge the rainwater. Due to the very large amount of precipitation in Yuyin, the pipes to dredge rainwater were specially built to be very large. If you don't do your research beforehand, it's easy to get lost here and wait for someone to rescue you.

And this piping system, which even most people in Yuyin may not be able to fully figure out, has been investigated clearly by the toad that has infiltrated it long ago.

Although there will be a lot of detours, this place is better than safe and hidden, and the people of Yuyin Village would never have imagined that he would invade from here and directly reach the aqueduct of the tower, so as to reach his destination directly. After all, if outsiders sneak in from here, there is a good chance that they will be dizzy, completely lose their sense of direction, and spin in place.

And now he only needs half an hour to complete this infiltration operation perfectly, so Jiraiya's nervous mood from the beginning can't help but relax a lot now.

If he sneaks here, he's basically safe.

The next thing to do is to pass through here, go straight to the tower, and face the "god" directly.

However, just as he walked to one

Halfway through, a sharp sound of breaking wind suddenly came from the air. The shuriken folded from white paper quickly cut through the air and shot from behind.

Zilai didn't want to flash to the side, so that the paper shuriken was suddenly inserted into the steel pipe, fixed on it and motionless.

And Jilai was also shocked that the thin piece of paper, after attaching the chakra, could achieve the effect of sharpening iron like clay.

He looked up and saw that his eyes were already covered in countless pieces of white flowers, flying towards his face, intending to cover his face and let him die of suffocation.

"Fire Escape!"

Without hesitation, he jumped backwards and spewed out a huge fireball from his mouth, instantly devouring the flying pieces of paper into the fireball.

The burning of countless pieces of paper intensified the momentum of the fireball, and the crackling sound was non-stop.

Just when he thought that the enemy's momentum would be suppressed by himself, more pieces of paper were suspended in the air, folding into a short sword with two blades on both sides, like a torrential rain, it shot straight down, breaking through the suppression of the fireball in an instant, tearing countless flames from the fireball from the middle.

Boom Boom Boom!

The paper sword that landed on the steel pipe was like a cannonball, rolling up thick dust and spreading out.

Jilai also rolled out of the dusty area in a bit of embarrassment, and coughed violently because he was choked on the dust.

He stared at the countless paper swords stuck diagonally in the steel pipes, his eyes solemn.

Not only are these paper creations sharp, but the texture is also so tough that it is beyond his expectations. The dust dispersed, blown away by a pair of paper-winged pioneers.

A short-haired woman with blue hair condensed into her upper body with only pieces of paper was revealed, suspended in the damp air, and her lower body disappeared.

Not only that, but her condensed upper body showed neat splinter marks, and if she encountered a strong attack, it was estimated that she could turn into shreds and scatter at any time to dodge the attack.

"I wanted to go straight to your lair and talk to you, but I didn't expect you to come to me in such eagerness, Nan-chan. Your technique has become more delicate and dangerous than before, and your whole person has become more feminine."

Jilai also patted the dust on his body, looked at Xiao Nan who appeared in mid-air, and couldn't help but show a smile on his face.

Although the appearance of the other party has changed a lot, and it looks much more mature than in the past, there are many places that have not changed, so I recognized the other party at the first time.

"What's the point of you coming here now? You're not welcome here."

Xiao Nan's eyes did not fluctuate, but he raised his hands, and the white pieces of paper gathered around him, folded into a sharp blade, and occupied Jiraiya's field of vision.

Seeing this, the smile on his face was even worse, and quietly, he also gathered chakra on his hands.

"It's a master and apprentice, so you can't entertain me in this kind of place, right? I have as many mountains as I would like to speak to you. Seeing that you're okay, Yahiko and Nagato should be alive too. Is the "god" of Yugakuin Yahiko or Nagato? It's Yahiko. Nagato, he's a man who doesn't have much opinion, and he will only silently dedicate himself to you in the back."

Zilai also guessed on his own.

"It's none of your business, don't meddle with it!"

"What's nosy? Do you know what serious consequences you will have if you take the tailed beasts of the rest of the villages? I don't know what your purpose is in taking the Tailed Beast, but by doing so, you are embarking on a path of no return! Listen to me, let the tailed beasts go, and explain it to the villages, and I can negotiate for you..... ＂

Zilai also argues for reason.

"It's with your naïve thoughts that those companions will die in front of us one by one! Sacrifice is important for peace, but the sacrifices of the past are worthless, and we don't want to make meaningless sacrifices anymore!"

Xiao Nan's voice was cold, interrupting Jiraiya's words, and the paper swords suspended in the air around him immediately shot straight down like a torrential rain, and the murderous aura spread to all around.

Bang bang!

Jiraiya slapped the earth with both hands, and the thick earthen wall rose in response, and the paper sword was struck

Block.

However, in the face of continuous paper sword shooting, the earthen wall, which was far two or three times thicker than ordinary earth swords, was directly crumbling.

The ability of the paper sword to attack tough problems made Zilai also frightened.

Not only did he suppress the fire escape head-on, but even the defensive earth escape couldn't support it so quickly. This kind of ninjutsu is said to have evolved into the blood inheritance limit, and I have always believed in it.

Jiraiya thought about it for a while, and immediately retreated backwards, preparing to evacuate temporarily, and think about countermeasures. After all, Xiao Nan's strength is beyond his imagination, and the idea of catching the other party as a hostage is not realistic at all, and he may still have the risk of overturning.

Just as he was about to evacuate, a sound came from behind him, causing his face to change. "Water Escape: The Art of Water Shark Bullets!"

The huge water-made shark shark tore open its huge mouth and devoured Xiang Jiraiya's body.

Ahead, the earthen wall cracked with a bang, turning into rubble and flying around, and the paper sword broke through the defense of the earthen wall, and the shark flanked back and forth.

Rumble! Click!

The violent explosion caused the surrounding steel pipe walls to appear dented and torn.

When the smoke and dust cleared, I only saw a pool of blood on the ground, but the whole person disappeared as if the world had evaporated.

"I escaped."

The ghost shark who came with a big knife and shark muscle on his back glanced at the blood stains on the ground, and the corners of his mouth grinned, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth.

He set his sights on the crack in the pipe on one side, which should have been an emergency passage punched out of the other pipe, and successfully escaped from the other pipe.

"He's wounded, and with a lot of our men around, he won't be able to escape." Xiao Nan is not worried that he will be able to escape from here.

It's easy to get in and hard to get out, and there is no need to dispatch Payne, a few of them are enough to hunt this three ninja as a mouse.

"But be careful, he evacuated at this time, probably because he wanted to launch immortal magic and summon the two immortals of Miaomu Mountain. Before then, find his tracks, or things will be a little tricky."

Xiao Nan thought of something.

Not surprisingly, this is the idea that Jiraiya should have hit.

"Immortals? I'd like to see what it's like."

The oni shark nodded at Xiao Nan and left from the other side, searching for Jiraiya's whereabouts. ®

"Ahem..... Ahem....."

With his back against the cold steel pipes, he did his best to suppress the pain from the wounds on his body. The thighs and waists that had been cut by the blade were bleeding continuously, staining the corresponding parts of his clothes red. "I really don't accept the old man, I can't even dodge this move with my reflexes......

Jiraiya sighed, and the corner of his eye scanned the surroundings and quietly breathed a sigh of relief when he found that no enemy was chasing him.

The idea of going to see the "god" began to withdraw from my mind, and the strength of the enemy was much stronger than I had imagined.

But I finally came in once, and I returned empty-handed, and I was sorry for my identity as a three-ninja. What's more, such a dangerous organization must get more useful information as soon as possible.

"The best thing to do is to evacuate immediately after catching a person and bring it back to Konoha for ......interrogation," Jiraiya's eyes were uncertain, as if he was thinking about how to arrange his next move.

......"Found you!"

The oni shark who acted alone, in a pipe, found Jiraiya who was recuperating his body. I can't help but say.,Swing the big knife shark muscle.,Slash at Jiraiya's body.。

"Turquoise Yellow Springs!"

Not to be outdone, Zilai rushed to the ghost shark, and sealed his hands, so that the pipe under the ghost shark's feet immediately turned into a muddy swamp, sinking his legs into the swamp and restraining him.

Immediately after, Jiraiya's right palm began to rotate the chakra, and quickly synthesized a chakra ball, hitting the ghost shark's face.

"Spiral Pill!"

The ghost shark's mouth cracked, blocking the shark muscles in front of him.

The chakra ball in Jiraiya's hand, the closer it is to the shark muscle, the smaller the size of the ball becomes, until the palm is empty

, all the chakras are gone.

"Cut!"

Knowing that this was futile Jiraiya, he immediately pulled back and distanced himself from the ghost shark. The ghost shark puts the shark muscles behind him and seals his hands.

"The water escapes and the water rushes into the waves!" Rumble!

For a moment, there was a scene of the earth shaking and the mountains shaking, and the water spouting out of the mouth of the ghost shark instantly filled the huge pipe and eroded the space farther away at a very exaggerated speed.

The heavy pressure of the water permeated Jiraiya's body, and he couldn't escape if he wanted to, so he could only hold his breath desperately. "Hehe, as long as it's in the water, even if it's a saninja, it can only be my prey."

The ghost shark held the water with its palm, as if it were on a solid floor. "Water Escape: Five Sharks!"

Five sharks formed by the convergence of chakras formed in an instant, and pounced towards Jiraiya, whose movement was greatly slowed down by the water pressure.

Jiraiya threw a punch into a shark, and the shark suffered a wound on the head, but the wound was soon healed.

As long as the chakras in the water continue, these sharks are immortal and will continue until they bite their enemies to death.

A shark bites Jiraiya's thigh, and a shark bites his arm. Three other sharks pounced on him, covering him.

Until a shark bit him on the head, and with a bang, he disappeared into a puff of smoke. The sharks lost their bite and spun around in a daze.

The oni shark had no choice but to disarm the ninjutsu and return the surrounding space to normal. "Shadow clones? It seems to be more troublesome than expected."

The ghost shark frowned and turned to leave.

·······

"Ahh

Jiraiya, who was impaled through his body by a paper gun, sat down directly on the ground and let out a scream. Xiao Nan stood in front of him and looked at him coldly.

"Jiraiya-sensei, that's the end of it. The era of your three forbearances is long over." Jiraiya, who was sweating profusely, barely squeezed a smile out of his face:

"Being surpassed by former disciples is indeed something to be proud of. But as a teacher, I don't remember teaching you such a big thing. I won this battle."

Bang!

In Xiao Nan's stunned gaze, Zilai also turned into smoke and lost its traces.

Then, Xiao Nan's face changed wildly, and the moment he turned his head to look, a sharp stream of water flew from a distance

Without hesitation, cut off one of her arms.

No blood flowed from the severed arm, but only a myriad of pieces of paper flew away.

Xiao Nanfei stepped back, his body floating in mid-air, and his lost right hand quickly regrew from the convergence of the pieces of paper.

Around the body, scattered pieces of white paper also began to float, and began to fold into paper swords, pointing into the darkness deep in the pipe.

Jiraiya, who came out of the darkness, had a thick nose and sweat pimples, his face was covered with blood-red oil paint, and on his left and right shoulders stood a toad wearing a cloak.

It is the two elders of Miaomu Mountain, the deep immortal and the Zhima immortal.

"Jiraiya, don't always call us out to fight, anyway, you should learn to enter the immortal mode yourself."

Fukasaku said in a worried tone.

To be honest, since the fall of Mt. Miaoki, it has been a little afraid of Jiraiya, the contractor, for fear that he will provoke some strange ninjas and make the two immortals fall into a bitter battle together.

"That said, the new station is so busy right now, I don't have time to deal with your side of things." The Zhima Immortals were also not very satisfied with Jiraiya summoning them at this time.

"Don't worry, eldest sister, the enemy this time is not that strong, so let's catch her and bring her back to Konoha for interrogation."

Jiraiya pointed to Xiao Nan, who was floating in the air in front of him, with a very strong sense of purpose.

"Moreover, I have used my shadow clone to lure away another powerful enemy, and now she is a lone army." It's not over

, and explained.

If Xiao Nan and the ghost shark are united, even if they use the immortal mode and want to capture one person alive, even if they can do it, it will not be possible to do it in a short time.

After hearing this, the Fukasaku Immortals and the Zhima Immortals felt a little relieved.

In short, if it's not a fight with the country of ghosts, there shouldn't be any problem. "Hmph, it looks like I'm being underestimated."

Xiao Nan snorted lightly, and when she heard Jiraiya's words, she immediately understood that the other party wanted to arrest her back to Konoha for interrogation and obtain confidential information about Yuyin and Xiao.

It is true that there is a big gap between her strength and Nagato, but she will not be captured alive by others casually, even if she has entered the immortal mode.

Regarding the information about the Jiraiya Immortal Mode, Yuyin has collected it very well.

Although this time it took a shorter time to summon the two immortals, most of them are because they have seriously cultivated in this area in the past few years. But that's about it.

As long as you can't get rid of the two immortals, it means that the immortal mode of Zilai can be taken advantage of. Facing off head-on with this crippled immortal mode, even if he is alone, Xiao Nan is not afraid. "Okay, I'll help you this time."

The Fukasaku Immortal took a deep breath, his hands sealed, and the immortal chakra brewed in his mouth.

"Xiao Nan, just tie your hands, I don't want to take you back to Konoha after you are covered in bruises. You know that what you are doing now is destroying the peace of the ninja world! Why did you, who had worked hard for peace in the ninja world, embark on this path? Have you lost your principles?"

Jiraiya still tries to convince Xiao Nan with words.

"Forced to the point where there is no way back from your great powers, naturally we can only go on like this. And, if you are wrong, we are also seeking peace, but it is a decision made after our own deliberation." Xiao Nan responded coldly.

"But that's wrong. If you do this, you will only bring endless wars, and there is no hope for peace."

Jiraiya retorted loudly.

"The great powers of the past invaded the Land of Rain and came in the name of peace. Now, Mr. Jiraiya, you ask us to lay down our weapons, and you also claim to be for peace...... In short, as long as we lay down our arms and kneel down to ask for mercy from the enemy, it is the peace that you have always wanted in your heart, and if we resist, we will be evil, right?"

Xiao Nan's body was filled with monstrous killing intent, as if he recalled something not very good. In the past, Xiao tossed and turned between countries like a clown, asking for a truce in various countries.

However, they are soft-spoken, and no one listens to them in the name of justice, so they become reservoir dogs in the rain more than once, and finally "die" in Konoha's betrayal.

Xiao Nan didn't want to go through that kind of thing again. "No, that's not what I meant.....".

Jiraiya opened his mouth to argue.

"But your suggestion will make the tragedy of the past happen again!" "Xiao Nan, you-"

"Forget it, you and I are no longer all the way after all. Nagato is right, the land of rain, the rain is hidden, and there is no longer a need for a weak peace! The road to peace can only be paved with the blood of the enemy! We've sacrificed everything we can, and now it's not a big deal to sacrifice another teacher!"

Xiao Nan terminated the conversation.

The pieces of paper folded into paper swords, with a fierce momentum that penetrated the human body, scattered towards Jiraiya and the two immortals.

"Damn, you used to be the kindest of the three, have your thoughts been distorted and degenerated to this point?" Jiraiya's face was very sad, but he also knew that if he continued to be angry like this, he would not be able to solve the crux of the matter. He wanted to figure out why Xiao Nan had become like this, but now it seemed that even if he grabbed the other party, he couldn't twist it

In his right mind, he must be prepared for the worst to kill the other party.

"Immortal Method: Super Large Jade Spiral Pill!"

In the face of the rain of paper swords that shot quickly, Jiraiya's body leaped forward, and his hands pushed forward, and the huge chakra ball that was huge enough to cover Jiraiya's body blocked all the attacking paper swords

Breathed in front of Xiao Nan and pressed the chakra ball forward.

Rumble!

In the violent explosion, Xiao Nan's body turned into shredded paper, like a dancing white butterfly, scattered around, and then converged in another high in the air.

"Hey, this little girl is not afraid of physical attacks, you have to use other methods to deal with her!"

Through the previous battle, the Zhima Immortal found that Xiao Nan's technique was very peculiar, and he could basically ignore physical attacks, so he couldn't help but remind him out loud.

"For pieces of paper, it's better to use water or oil. If you get it in oil, you won't be able to spread it out."

Fukasaku Immortal said.

"In that case, let's use this move to settle the battle in one go!"

Jiraiya made a quick decision, a lot of time has been wasted here, it is best to be able to capture the other party alive, if you can't catch it alive, you have to return to Konoha with the other party's corpse.

Jiraiya's mouth bulged out widely, and a large amount of oil spewed out of his mouth like a torrent, turning into a flood and rushing towards Xiaonan. Fukasaku Immortal and Shima Immortal also spewed out storms and flames from their mouths, which mixed with Jiraiya's oil, causing the air inside the pipes to heat up sharply.

The steel pipes, showing signs of melting and corrosion, quickly disintegrated.

Xiao Nan's face couldn't help but change greatly, this move was aimed at her technique. If she is contaminated, she will not be able to achieve 100% immunity with her secret arts.

Xiao Nan could only use the wings behind him to float backwards as a way to widen the distance and wait for the torrent of flames to stop on its own.

Such an attack, with her secret technique, could not be disintegrated from the front.

Just when this torrent of flames continued to pursue Xiao Nan, the steel pipe above exploded suddenly, the smoke and dust spread, and a black shadow fell in front of Xiao Nan's body, and the white shield wrapped his body, like a huge black hole, swallowing the solid flame torrent into the bottomless abyss.
