Chapter 248: Stubborn Nagato
Deep in the Akatsuki base, old friends who had not seen each other for many years met, and the atmosphere should have been warm.
But Jiraiya's words turned the atmosphere that should have been warm into a serious and solemn one.
"'Eye of the Moon'?"
"Yes, according to my guess, Minato, Orochimaru and others, this plan is probably aimed at the moon hanging in the sky, otherwise, there is no need to give this plan such a name."
"The moon?"
"Well, this is just our guess, but we haven't figured out what it is going to do."
At this point, Jiraiya didn't want to reveal more information.
Just like he said, it was just a guess.
If everything is revealed, what if the guess is wrong?
If possible, Jiraiya also wants to maintain some dignity as a teacher in front of Konan and the other two, rather than some kind of funny character.
"As for the Samsara Eye, it may not be as simple as giving it to Nagato."
The three nodded and expressed their understanding of what Jiraiya said.
If Uchiha Madara really had some unknown purpose, then he would not give away an eye like the Samsara Eye, which has great power.
Looking at Nagato, who became a bone and flesh due to the use of the power of the Samsara Eye, Konan had a vague guess in her heart.
But this guess was too vague and could not form a complete chain of suspicion in her heart.
"So Nagato, knowing that the Samsara Eye is not your eye, and you may be in Uchiha Madara's chessboard, in this case, do you still insist on your own ideas?"
Jiraiya came to the Hidden Rain Village to dispel Nagato's extreme idea.
Capturing the nine tailed beasts and sealing them in the Outer Path Demon Statue together, you know it's too extreme as soon as you hear it.
When Hashirama Senju captured the tailed beasts, it was because the tailed beasts were still free. Even if he captured these tailed beasts, no one would jump out to blame him.
But now it's different.
All the tailed beasts, except the three-tailed beasts that are being resurrected, are sealed into the bodies of ninjas and become the so-called Jinchūriki.
If you want to capture the tailed beasts, you will definitely offend the ninja village with the Jinchūriki.
Just look at the situation of the five villages pressing on you to know how serious Nagato's situation is at this time.
But fortunately, Nagato has not had time to capture the nine-tailed beasts, and Konoha and Nagato have not reached the point of fighting to the death.
In addition to the relationship with Jiraiya, Konoha is very happy to take in the three of them.
"Teacher Jiraiya."
Listening to Jiraiya's words, even Nagato fell into confusion.
From having the Samsara Eye to capturing the nine tailed beasts, is this the path arranged for him by others?
Then, is it also false that the tailed beasts are sealed into the "Pluto" to form a military deterrent to the ninja world, so that the major ninja villages are cautious and dare not use force on a large scale, thus allowing the ninja world to enter peace?
As he was thinking, Nagato suddenly thought of something, and his eyes changed from confusion to determination.
"Even if my life and everything I do now are arranged by others, I still want to give it a try."
"Why are you so stubborn, you little brat?"
Hearing that Nagato still didn't give up that conceivable idea, Jiraiya immediately became anxious.
"Nagato, do you want to think about it again?"
"Yes, Nagato, capturing the nine tailed beasts may be part of the "Moon Eye" plan, don't be fooled."
Konan and Yahiko were also anxious.
The plan to capture the tailed beasts was obviously unreliable, so why didn't Nagato just ignore the advice?
"I understand what you said, but. Now the Samsara Eye is in my body. As long as I don't have any problems, then everything is not a problem. Not to mention that Uchiha Madara is dead, even if he is resurrected, what can he do? As long as he dares to attack me, I can kill him."
"Nagato. Since you insist on doing so, I can't hold you back."
"Nagato, you know, no matter what decision you make, I will support you."
Nagato's extremely confident words infected Konan and Yahiko. They changed sides on the spot and no longer chose to dissuade him, but began to support him.
But Jiraiya felt embarrassed when he heard it.
The three of them didn't know the horror of Uchiha Madara, but Jiraiya knew a little bit.
In his opinion, even if Nagato had the Samsara Eye, Pain Six Paths would be very difficult to deal with if others didn't know the information.
But he was not facing some cats and dogs, but the Shura of the Ninja World, Uchiha Madara.
With Madara's strength, even if he didn't have the Samsara Eye, but just gave him a pair of ordinary eyes, it was not something that ordinary people could deal with.
Besides, Uchiha Madara had been planning for so many years and had specially found Obito as his successor. Didn't he have any backup plan?
Looking at the confident Nagato and the high-spirited Konan and Yahiko, Jiraiya secretly said: You are still too young.
He was young once, and knew that persuading them at this time would most likely backfire and arouse the rebellious psychology of the three.
So, Jiraiya simply stopped persuading them.
"Since you have made a decision, Nagato, I will not persuade you, but you and Konan have to give me some blood."
"Thank you, Jiraiya-sensei."
Nagato and Konan understood that Jiraiya was worried that they would die, and he was preparing to revive them in the future.
"I am your teacher, you don't have to be so polite to me." Jiraiya laughed, turned around and said to Yahiko: "Yahiko, with your current strength, it is difficult to help Nagato, come back to Konoha with me in a while."
".Okay."
Yahiko also knew that his current strength was at the bottom of the three.
Once he appeared on the battlefield, let alone helping, it would be good if he could not hold back.
"It's been many years since we last met, I believe you have a lot to say, you can chat first, I'll go out for some fresh air."
After saying that, Jiraiya walked out regardless of the reactions of the three.
Coming to a ventilated place, Jiraiya sat cross-legged on the ground, thinking about the future situation of the ninja world.
From the current point of view, if there is no accident, Nagato and Konan are most likely dead.
Don't underestimate the Fourth Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village.
He suffered such a big loss at the hands of Nagato some time ago, this time he must have made sufficient preparations.
Once Nagato died, the Samsara Eye became an ownerless thing, and maybe it would set off a bloody storm again.
Even if the Fourth Raikage Ai didn't know the value, Obito and that Zetsu would definitely not let go of these eyes.
Jiraiya was not worried about the Samsara Eye itself.
What he was most worried about was that someone would use the Samsara Eye to revive Uchiha Madara.
Once Uchiha Madara was resurrected, judging from the current combat power of the ninja world, who could stop him?
No matter how confident Jiraiya was, he would not think that he could deal with Uchiha Madara.
"The second generation can only come here once a month, and each time they can only stay for an hour."
"Distant water cannot quench a nearby fire."
"It seems that it is time to revive the first generation of our time and space."
Half an hour later, Yahiko found Jiraiya and handed him two small bottles of blood and a slightly larger bottle containing a samsara eye.
