Chapter 300: Jiraiya and Orochimaru
Chapter 300: Jiraiya and Orochimaru
Ten days later.
Yeruashi and the others arrived at their destination, Taigu City.
In the past, it was just a small town with a small population, located in a valley, but a few years ago, someone built hot springs here. Combined with the fact that there are a lot of roads nearby, the town began to actively develop and in a few years became a well-known recreation spot.
As to why this place of regret became suitable for building hot springs? According to some studies, this is due to the battle of Yeruashi and Hashirama, during which the mountains near Konoha were severely damaged, which had a chain reaction of subway destruction.
In one of the larger rooms of the hotel.
"So..."
"I made these hot springs appear?"
Yeruashi couldn't help but be surprised after hearing Rin's story.
Rin smiled and nodded, saying, "You could say that."
Yeruashi slapped his forehead with his hand and said, "None of this matters, as long as this hot spring is really good."
At that moment, he had already put on a clean white robe.
Kurenai and Rin were also in robes, with towels over their shoulders.
Hinata's robe was a little too big and looked ridiculous. Rin couldn't resist pulling her red cheeks again, and then walked with Hinata in the direction of the hot springs.
With the exception of the male and female hot springs, there are several separate springs of different sizes, the small ones are open to individual visitors and the large ones are usually impossible to access, as they are meant for frequent aristocrats.
Rin had prepared for the trip in advance and booked three separate rather large springs.
Yeruashi entered one of them, took off his robe and lay down in the water, relaxed.
Although Yeruashi has been practicing Hachimon Tonko for many years, there were no large muscles protruding from his body. Due to the influence of the power of the Six Paths, each of his small muscles was incredibly strong and had enormous explosive power.
His skin was white and clean.
There were clear abs on his stomach.
Yeruashi remembered a time when he stepped out of the shower with only a small towel wrapped around him. The glaring eyes of Rin and Kurenai, who were in the living room at the time, made Yeruashi feel like they were about to pounce on him and eat him.
"I hope they don't 'accidentally' go into the wrong bathroom again..."
Yeruashi whispered thoughtfully and resolutely activated Perfect Sage Mode to use his perception to protect himself from the intrusion of the rampaging girls, as well as to check if there were no other peeping toms here.
To his surprise, Yeruashi actually sensed the presence of a sly pervert sneaking up on the hot spring.
His chakra seemed a bit familiar....
"..."
Yeruashi frowned and activated Rinne Tenseigan.
Indeed, a very familiar figure appeared before Yeruashi's eyes, and at that moment, with a pitiful perverted expression, he was secretly approaching the nearby hot springs, where Kurenai and the others were.
In the next moment.
Kurenai, Hinata and Rin, who had just entered the hot springs, heard a loud splashing of water and a shouting sound rapidly receding.
Judging by the sounds, it sounded like someone had flown far away.
"Huh!"
Rin, who had not yet taken off her robe, instantly went into a state of high alert and quickly jumped onto the high wall surrounding the hot spring.
Looking in the direction the shout was going, she could only see a small black dot in the distance, which disappeared into the horizon a moment later.
Then he looked down and saw Yeruashi standing with a dark face not far from the wall.
He stared coldly at the sky with his chin raised and water dripped down his body.
"Ye...Yeruashi?"
Rin exclaimed in surprise.
Yeruashi turned his head and said calmly, "It's okay, I just kicked out a poor old pervert, keep enjoying the hot springs."
Whoosh!
After these words, Yeruashi instantly disappeared.
"Uh..."
Rin was in a trance for a while, and when she came to her senses and realized exactly what had happened, she sighed in relief and felt very annoyed.
Was there really a person who would dare to sneak up on the most famous hot springs in the world?
He was also an old man...
How could there be such a shameless pervert!
If only it was Yeruashi....
At the thought of Yeruashi, Rin's mind flashed back to the image of him standing next to her, water dripping down his body.
Rin's gaze became confused and she fell back into a trance and lost touch with reality.
...
Tens of kilometers away from Taigu City.
The human figure arced like a meteorite in the sky, crashed into a tree, broke several branches and finally fell to the ground.
It was Jiraiya.
Ever since Yeruashi became the Fifth Hokage, the Sannin rarely returned to the village and traveled all the time in search of inspiration for another blockbuster.
But today, when Jiraiya once again went to look for inspiration, he suddenly felt like he was flying in the sky at high speed, as if someone had kicked him....
"Cough..."
Jiraiya spat out a mouthful of blood and looked around in a daze, very surprised by this sudden attack.
It was only after a few seconds that he recovered from the shock and assessed his condition.
Ah...
At least a dozen rib fractures... damage to internal organs and severe internal bleeding.
After assessing his injuries, Jiraiya began to understand roughly what exactly had happened.
There should only be one person in the world who could sneak up on a Sannin without a single signal and deliver a terrifying blow that would bring him to the brink of life or death, as well as throw him tens of miles away, all this despite the fact that he didn't realize exactly how he was attacked and what happened in the first place.
This person was...
Konoha's Fifth Hokage, Hatake Yeruashi!
"Cough...cough...how could I run into him here..."
Jiraiya put on a depressed expression.
This is too cruel!
With such injuries, he might die if he didn't get effective help soon.
He raised his hand with difficulty and took some of his blood in an attempt to use the Summoning Jutsu.
But...
Jiraiya turned very pale.... Because the Summoning Jutsu failed!
Severe injuries and damaged tenketsu made it very difficult to use chakra.
It's over!
He will die here!
One of Konoha's legendary Sannin, the famous hero Jiraiya, who went through the Second and Third Ninja World Wars, died not in the war, but near a hot spring, getting hit by sneaking a peek! After that... even his fame in the ninja world will be completely destroyed.
The corners of Jiraiya's mouth twitched at the thought of his obituary.
No!
He can't allow this to happen!
Jiraiya struggled to gather the remaining chakra in an attempt to apply the Summoning Jutsu.
But.
Just as he was about to successfully apply the Jutsu, several white bones suddenly flew from the side.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!!!
Some of the bones pierced Jiraiya's arms, pinning them to the ground.
The practically successful summoning jutsu was destroyed!
Now I'm definitely done!
This thought immediately flashed through Jiraiya's mind.
After colliding with Yeruashi, he fell in a completely random place and collided with other ninjas....
Just how bad is his luck today!
But.
As Jiraiya mourned his death, feeling his injuries deteriorating rapidly and his consciousness gradually sinking into darkness, an incredibly familiar voice suddenly came from the side.
"Jiraiya?"
The voice was extremely hoarse and weak, but despite this, Jiraiya identified it immediately.
Hope shone in the Sannin's faded eyes.
That voice was... Orochimaru!
