The image of the empty ghost on the strange mural has been approaching the arm monster after a few seconds of continuous flickering of displacement.

The first empty ghost pounced...

The second, the third...

The empty ghost pounced on the monster one after another, crawling onto the monster's body, grabbing into the monster's flesh with the huge hook claws spread out on his forelimbs.

What was originally just a spooky mural turned into a hellish drawing depicting monsters vs big monsters at this moment.

Perhaps in the three-dimensional world, the empty ghost is not so good at dealing with the huge body and acid of monsters.

But in the two-dimensional world, only the skin of the empty ghost allows the empty ghost to travel and move in the two-dimensional world without restrictions.

In other words, in the world in the painting, the empty ghost is almost a god!

More and more empty ghosts climbed onto the monster's body until a dense network of empty ghosts crawled all over the monster's body like maggots.

But even so, there are still many empty ghosts who don't have a chance to touch their prey, so they can only stand in place.

In the next second, the empty ghosts turned their wrinkled heads to the side of the mural facing the three-dimensional world, and a pair of eyes that had been badly degraded to the point of only two holes were staring directly at Jiraiya.

"Not good! They've found us! ”

"Seal the walls again!"

Jiraiya quickly ran to the place where he had just stayed and lifted the wall on the other side.

Jiraiya's strength isn't considered a strong point, but it's okay to lift a solid wall.

By the time he brought the wall to this wall, the empty ghost on the mural had already flickered quite close to the side of the mural, and the blasphemous figure stood in front of the mural.

Countless terrifying monsters stick out of the mural with hook claws, as if the hand of hell is about to drag everything they can to hell with it.

Fortunately, at this time, the murals on the other wall were opposed to the murals on this wall, and the two murals were opposite, just like the opposite mirrors formed an infinitely repeated endless loop space.

However, the two walls did not fit together perfectly, and some of the empty ghosts were able to probe their shriveled arms like dried pickles through the gap in the middle of the wall to the three-dimensional space on the edge.

At the edge of the gap where the two walls overlapped, a dozen rugged arms probed out at an incredible angle.

If this continues, the walls may be torn down by the power of these empty ghosts.

Jiraiya hurriedly took the bandage from his bosom, rotated it a few times on the top of his head, allowing it to form a huge rope sleeve, and then put it over the outer contours of the two walls.

As the bandages on Jiraiya's hands tightened, the two walls quickly leaned together, clamping the empty ghost's tentative arm to the edge.

But even so, the empty ghost did not give up his determination to march towards the three-dimensional world, and was reluctant to withdraw his arm.

"Toad power!"

"Understood, little self!"

Toad Power also understood at this time, spit out his long pink tongue, wrapped the two walls more than a circle, and then tightened the two walls in the direction opposite Jiraiya.

The two walls were like bread on both sides of a sandwich clamping the empty ghost's arm, and under the pressure of the powerful force, the empty ghost's arm had to be retracted.

Bang Dang...

The two walls were completely tightened, and Jiraiya quickly took out the scroll he had just now, and resealed the wall back into the scroll.

After doing all this, he didn't have time to seal the scroll itself like before, and turned around and ran directly towards the mouth of the cave, and the toad force behind him disappeared with a bang.

When Jiraiya rushed out of the cave and stood on the flat ground in front of the cave entrance, he saw only the calm forest surrounding him.

Obviously, Orochimaru had already slipped away while Jiraiya was fighting the monster just now.

"Orochimaru!"

"Orochimaru!"

"You come out for me!"

"Get out!"

In the forest, the fury of Jiraiya startled the birds, but there was no human response.

After a few furious sounds, Jiraiya finally calmed down.

This time I lost the opportunity to catch Orochimaru, and I knew that it would be very difficult to find Orochimaru in the future.

Orochimaru has become like that now, and even if I found him, I would not have brought back a misguided companion, but an incorrigible paranoid, dehumanized demon.

So...

Farewell, Orochimaru.

Jiraiya silently said goodbye to Orochimaru in his heart, and only Jiraiya himself knows how much helplessness there is in his heart.

Well, Orochimaru's matter is over, and it's time to investigate Payne, the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

As for the existence of the Xiao Organization, I knew about it a long time ago when I traveled around the countries, but I didn't pay much attention to it.

It wasn't until these years that the organization's talent pool and frequent big moves made it impossible for Zilai to pay attention to this organization.

Especially the recent action of the Xiao Organization to capture the Tailed Orc Pillar Force is even more suspicious.

Therefore, Jiraiya is also preparing to formally investigate the mysterious leader of the Akatsuki organization, rumored to be called Payne.

This is the only name that the employer can know when the Akatsuki organization accepts the assignment, and it is considered by the outside world to be the name of the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

And according to the many employers who provide the location of the assignment, most of them are in the vicinity of the Rain Country.

The Land of Rain is located between the five major powers, and the country's Rain Ninja Village is under lockdown all year round, ensuring the convenience of transportation, secrecy, and the various resources needed by ninjas.

Therefore, it is extremely likely that the Rain Ninja Village is the center of activity or power of the Akatsuki organization.

In order to verify whether this guess is correct, Jiraiya is also going to infiltrate the Rain Ninja Village to investigate, is it possible that the old fox of Sanshoyu Hanzo has started another organization that I don't know what to do.

It's just that...

Jiraiya also remembered the three children he had rescued after the end of the Second Ninja World War, and they were also the first apprentices he accepted.

One of them, Yahiko, had sent a letter to himself many years ago, and the content of the letter was...

Jiraiya-sensei, Nagato and Konan and I set up an organization dedicated to helping the weak.

Although the strength of the organization is still very small, I believe that we will attract more people of insight in the future.

As our partners slowly come to our side, we will be able to achieve peace in the ninja world and prevent the tragedy of our generation from happening to anyone else.

The dawn of dawn will illuminate all the darkness of this world!

...

This is the first and only letter from Yahiko that Jiraiya has received.

After that, I didn't know about the situation of Yahiko and the others.

Xiao Nan... Now that she's a beautiful woman, right?

Maybe Xiao Nan at this age even has a child...

Will the husband be Yahiko? Or the Nagato who is too shy to reveal his feelings?

The expression on Jiraiya's face smiled at the beautiful reverie, but then the smile cooled down again.

The dawn of dawn...

No way...

Probably not...

Just then, the cry of an eagle hovered above Jiraiya's head.
