Chapter 293: Tsunade paid a huge price

~6 min read 1,183 words

Konoha Village.

Hokage's office.

There are Naruto, Chinatsu, Karin, Kakashi, and Fukaza Toad.

"Is this child Jiraiya's apprentice?" Fukaza, who was squatting on the back of his mount Toad, looked at Naruto and asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, he is Jiraiya's apprentice. Uzumaki Naruto, the son of prophecy mentioned by you and Jiraiya." Tsunade answered.

"Frog uncle? What?" Naruto was as thick-skinned as ever, with a confused look on his face.

"Hey, Naruto, this is Master Fukaza, one of the two great immortals of Myoboku Mountain." Tsunade still respected Myoboku Mountain, who had taught Jiraiya immortal arts. Seeing that Naruto was unreasonable, she hurriedly reminded him.

Shizune stood behind Tsunade holding Tuntun, worried that Naruto would not understand, and added: "This is the master who taught Master Jiraiya immortal arts."

"The master of the lecherous immortal?" Naruto tilted his head, looking suspicious, "Just this frog?"

"I've told you, Naruto, be careful when you speak." Tsunade supported her forehead with a headache.

"It's okay, it's okay. Talking like this does have some of Jiraiya's shadow, but the title of lecherous sage is surprisingly suitable for Jiraiya. It's a pity that he can't hear it anymore."

When Jiraiya was mentioned, Fukaza was regretful, and his face was full of loneliness.

When Naruto heard this, he had a bad feeling in his heart and said sternly: "What do you mean by this? You can't hear anything anymore, tell me clearly."

"Jiraiya died." Fukaza didn't keep it a secret.

The scene suddenly became quiet, and the huge Hokage office fell into a strange silence.

"Huh?" Naruto's mind was blank, and it was not until a long while that he reacted and looked unbelievable.

Except Tsunade and Chinatsu who knew the truth, most of the others were like this.

Jiraiya, one of the three legendary ninjas and the only one in the world who mastered the celestial art, is dead?

You must be kidding.

This is the common thought of everyone present at the moment.

"It happened too suddenly, no wonder you don't believe it." Fukatsura sighed, "Not long ago, there were rumors that the leader of Akatsuki might be hiding in the Hidden Rain Village."

"Little Jiraiya went to verify it himself..."

As he spoke, Fukatsura told the story of their battle with Pein.

When they heard about the Samsara Eye, including Tsunade, who already knew all the information about Pein except his body, they were all shocked.

Tsunade added with a serious face: "When Orochimaru launched the Konoha Collapse Plan, in the battle with Qianye, he once said that there was a person in Akatsuki who was stronger than him. If nothing unexpected happened, it was this Pein."

"Stronger than that guy Qianye?" Everyone was shocked again, especially Kakashi, who had fought with Qianye in person and knew how powerful Qianye was.

How powerful would a guy who was stronger than Qianye be?

Only Naruto lowered his head, his eyes were covered by shadows, his eyes were red, tears blurred his eyes, and the whole person fell into great sadness.

"Yes, you will know after reading this." Tsunade handed over a stack of documents.

"This... this is..." Kakashi took it, his pupils suddenly shrank, and cold sweat ran down his brows.

"Yes, this is the information of Pein." Tsunade nodded.

"Fighting with six such guys, it is no wonder that Master Jiraiya is in a desperate situation." Kakashi took a deep breath, "But this document is not enough to be described as intelligence. If you don't fight with Pein in person, you will never understand it so thoroughly. Where did you get it from?"

"After Jiraiya died, I asked Chinatsu's father to help collect it at a great cost." Tsunade said the answer she had prepared long ago.

Chinatsu stood behind Tsunade's office chair and poked out a cute little head, "How about it, my father is awesome."

"Chinatsu's father? Huge price?" Question marks appeared on everyone's heads.

"Yes, the price is super high." Tsunade folded her arms, closed her eyes and nodded repeatedly. For this, she was willing to compromise and accepted Qianye's conditions for opening a harem.

At the same time, she was forced to sleep with Chiya, who was three months pregnant.

For Konoha, she, the fifth Hokage, was worried sick.

"Okay, don't just stand there and watch. Hurry up and share this information. Now Akatsuki has collected seven tailed beasts. Naruto is likely to be the target of Akatsuki. Pein may invade Konoha at any time. We must be ready for battle at all times.

I have ordered a wartime state.

In addition, Jiraiya also left information, which has not been interpreted yet. Everyone present has contacted Jiraiya, and we need everyone to work together to decipher it."

Tsunade was worried about being exposed, so she quickly changed the subject.

In this regard, although everyone was curious about who Chixia's father was, they didn't ask any more questions.Kakashi distributed the information.

When it was Naruto's turn, he slapped the folder away.

The scene was quiet again.

Everyone in the office looked at Naruto one by one.

"Naruto, you..." Kakashi was speechless. For him who had lost all his relatives and friends, no one in the room understood Naruto's feelings better than him.

Naruto ignored Kakashi, raised his tear-stained face, waved his hand suddenly, and screamed at Tsunade:

"Why... why can you be like nothing happened? It was you, the mother-in-law, who let the lecherous sage go, why can you be like nothing happened when the lecherous sage died."

"..." Tsunade did not answer, but just looked at Naruto quietly, one head was bigger than the other.

She couldn't tell Naruto that Jiraiya was still alive.

She didn't even tell Chinatsu about this.

According to Qianye's 'perverse logic', a person can only truly grow up after losing something.

And 'Jiraiya's death' is precisely the best opportunity for Naruto to grow up.

Although she disagreed, she had no choice.

Qianye being able to save Jiraiya was the best result.

She couldn't expose the fact that Qianye was passing information to Konoha because of this.

This would very likely bring great danger to Qianye.

After all, that Samsara Eye is not a vegetarian.

And Jiraiya is now "sealed" in a different space by Qianye, and she couldn't prove to everyone that Jiraiya is still alive.

Seeing that Tsunade didn't answer, Naruto clenched his fists and continued to roar: "Tsunade should know the character of the lecherous sage very well. In this case, why did you allow him to go to such a dangerous place? Answer me quickly?"

"Calm down Naruto." Kakashi stopped Naruto and said earnestly: "I think you don't understand the feelings of the fifth generation Hokage now, the feeling of losing a close friend."

"If the lecherous sage is the Hokage, he will never let Tsunade go to such a dangerous place."

Naruto loosened his clenched fists, left this sentence, and turned to walk outside.

Wandering in the street in a daze, Naruto's past with Jiraiya came to his mind, and he couldn't stop crying.
