Chapter 690: Jiraiya's Plan Is...
In the face of Minato and other big bosses, as well as the eager gaze of Kanpū, this small subordinate, the Anbu Commander is under great pressure.
“Cough!”
With a dry cough, Eagle forced a smile: “Sorry, Anbu hasn't found any commonalities among the patients for the time being.”
As someone experienced and knowledgeable, Hiruzen said: “Eagle, collect all the patient's information and summarize their past experiences as a whole, maybe we’ll be able to find something out.”
Hearing his old boss's order, Eagle quickly glanced at his current boss, Minato, and after seeing that he had no objection, so he hastily responded: “I understand, Sandaime-sama.”
“It is unlikely for Advisor Danzo to do it himself, so Anbu should always monitor Root’s Shinobi.” Shikaku reminded.
Eagle glanced at Minato again, and then nodded: “I understand.”
Kanpū also wanted to join the party and give some advice to the Anbu Commander, but was stopped by Eagle’s fierce gaze.
Kanpū immediately reflected on his position. As an Anbu’s member, how can he give advice to his boss in front of the other bosses?
So he immediately changed his target, looked towards Shikaku, and said: “The more patients in Konoha Hospital, the more unstable their relatives’ emotions will be. If someone takes the opportunity to spread public opinion at that time, it is very likely to trigger a major diplomatic incident.”
‘Diplomatic incident?’
Shikaku’s face changed. Right now, many people outside are speculating that this unfathomable mystery is caused by Kirigakure’s Shinobi, so if Danzo sends someone to instigate it…
And use it for Gozu Tenno, the consequences will be disastrous!
No one present is a fool. After they thought about it deeply, their expressions changed immediately.
“Shikaku, ask Konoha Hospital to cooperate with the Anbu’s medical team, and make sure to save those patients in the shortest possible time! Also…”
Minato said, “Eagle, get some Anbu Sneak to mix around the relatives of the patients, and if someone spreads unfavorable rumors, arrest them immediately!”
“Yes!” Eagle responded loudly.
“And…”
Minato was about to say a few more words, when suddenly, the door of the underground secret room was suddenly opened from the outside. Everyone turned his head and saw Kushina standing outside the door. She looked at Minato with horrified gaze, and her mouth opened and closed, as if saying something loudly.
But they couldn’t hear her voice at all, because Minato had already activated a sealing barrier in this secret room, and the sound from outside couldn’t get inside.
Seeing Kushina’s expression, Minato was inexplicably panicked. He quickly removed the barrier and asked anxiously: “Kushina, what’s the matter?”
“Minato, messenger toad came to bring some information. Something happened to Jiraiya-sensei!!” Kushina said anxiously.
“What?!” Minato’s pupils shrank.
Hiruzen next to him was also panicked: “Jiraiya… what happened to that idiot?!”
“Sigh, this is not a good sign.”
Shikaku’s eyes are solemn. Danzo’s affairs have just begun to show signs, and now, something suddenly happened to Jiraiya.
‘Jiraiya-sama is one of the Sannin, Konoha’s top combat power. To be able to cause trouble to him, the other side must be at least Sannin level.’
‘Is it Orochimaru?’
Kanpū also sighed silently, ‘If you don’t listen to others’ advices, you will suffer the consequences.’
He didn't even have to guess, as he knew that Jiraiya is in Amegakure when this information was sent.
‘I had already reminded him to use shadow clone to explore, why didn’t he listen?’
‘Isn’t shadow clone good thing?’
When Kanpū silently cursed in his heart, Minato had already rushed out of the secret room.
The living room.
Naruto sat on the blanket next to the sofa. Looking at a toad squatting on the sofa curiously, he pointed his little finger at the frog's belly, ready to poke it.
“Stay away from me, you naughty brat.” The toad said with aa snort.
“Then tell me, why can you talk?” Naruto was curious.
“Isn’t it common sense that toads can talk?” The toad had a very strange and disdainful expression, almost calling Naruto a country bumpkin.
“Common sense?”
Naruto is dumbfounded. He has grown up so big, but this is the first time he has met a talking toad.
‘Is this toad lying to me?’
He was about to catch the frog and torture it, when suddenly, there was a sharp sound of breaking through the air beside him. Turning his head to see, he saw that it was Minato.
“Dad, I…” Naruto hurriedly stood up, covered his head, which is full of bumps, with both hands, and exclaimed, “I was wrong!!”
“Kushina.” Minato said without turning his head.
“Naruto, don’t cause trouble.” Kushina grabbed Naruto, and brought him to the second floor.
At this time, Hiruzen, Shikaku, Eagle and Kanpū also walked out of the secret room.
“Messenger toad, what happened to Jiraiya-sensei?” Minato asked solemnly.
The toad squatting on the sofa lightly jumped to Minato's shoulder and said: “He is being hunted down by someone.”
“Hunted down?” Minato breathed a sigh of relief, since Jiraiya hasn’t died, but then, he recalled what happened two months ago.
Two months ago, Jiraiya got some information about Akatsuki, Nagato and Konan from Minato and Kanpū, and volunteered to go to Amegakure to investigate. In order to facilitate contact and avoid accidents, Jiraiya left this messenger toad.
He didn’t expect that they would encounter such an emergency the first time they used it.
“Jiraiya was hunted down…”
Hiruzen’s face darkened, “Is it Orochimaru?”
“It’s not Orochimaru, it's six Shinobi who claim to be Six Paths of Pain.” The messenger toad answered all questions.
“Six Paths of Pain?” Hiruzen frowned tightly, as he had never heard of this name at all.
“How is the situation now?” Shikaku asked.
The messenger toad said: “Jiraiya has been running. There should be no danger to his life in a short period of time.”
‘Meaning that there will be danger if it takes a long time?’
‘Otherwise, how else could Jiraiya be killed in the original work?’
‘But…’
Kanpū suddenly remembered something and asked: “Mount Myoboku should have Reverse Summoning Technique, right?”
“Yes.”
The messenger toad said, “This is why Jiraiya asked me to contact Minato.”
Minato has calmed down at this moment, and asked: “Does Jiraiya-sensei have a plan?”
“He intends to use the Reverse Summoning Technique to summon you over there, and then you two will join forces to defeat Six Paths of Pain.” The messenger toad answered.
‘Is this the plan for the master to join forces with his disciple to clean up the sect?’
‘Is Jiraiya such a ruthless person?
Kanpū’s scalp felt numb.
“No, it’s too risky!”
Shikaku thought for two seconds, and immediately stood up and said, “In the village, Advisor Danzo has already activated the Gozu Tenno. Before knowing what his specific plan is, letting Yondaime-sama leave the village is too risky, and… the Akatsuki is a Missing-nin organization. In addition to the Six-Paths of Pain, who hunted down Jiraiya-sama, there are still Orochimaru, Sasori and other S-Rank Missing-nin who did not appear, what if it’s a trap?”
“I support Shikaku.” Hiruzen said calmly.
Everyone knows it’s better to do less risky things.
Eagle also said: “I don’t recommend Hokage-sama to go there personally for support.”
Kanpū also started to talk at the right time: “Hokage-sama, just ask Jiraiya-sama to retreat through the Reverse Summoning Technique.”
It’s Rinnegan after all. Even if Kanpū doesn’t respect Nagato, he has to give these eyes a little face.
Besides, Akatsuki hasn’t fallen apart yet. In addition to Six Paths of Pain, there are Orochimaru, Sasori, Kakuzu, Hidan, Kisame and Konan. With White Zetsu’s ability, he believes that these Missing-nin, who are located in different parts of the world, can gather in minutes.
Therefore, Kanpū wouldn’t dare to be reckless.
Unless he already collects Wood Release or Tenseigan.
After listening to everyone’s opinion, Minato was in a dilemma for a while.
