Chapter 124 What on earth is Konoha doing?!
Of course, even if the sages of Mount Myōboku somehow found out about their plan and questioned them about why they hadn't been informed, all they could do was remain silent. Besides, Mount Myōboku had no right to interfere with Konoha, right?
"What does it mean when the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki goes out of control?"
As soon as Jiraiya began to explain, Fukasaku's voice rang out.
"How did things get out of control again? This is the second time, Jiraiya! This is the second time! Before, your Konoha attacked the Uchiha clan, attacked your own comrades in the village, and ultimately gave birth to a monster like Uchiha Tsukuyomi!"
"And now, what have you done to make the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki go out of control?! What on earth is Konoha doing?! Why is all this mess because of you?!!"
"Why did the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki go out of control again? All the other villages are fine, why is it only yours that's gone out of control? You..."
Fukasaku raised his hand and frantically pounded on Jiraiya's head. Upon hearing this news, her first reaction was not that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki had gone out of control, but rather what stupid thing Konoha had done this time.
Don't think she's clueless or a stupid toad. She used to come to Konoha to buy groceries often. Although others didn't know that the child named Uzumaki Naruto was a Jinchuriki, as a Sage, she could sense the power within Naruto. She knew that the child was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and she also knew that Naruto was a good kid, a hot-blooded, kind-hearted fool.
But how could such a good child lose control after only a short time apart?
Why? Surely everything before couldn't have been a lie!
You're telling me you didn't do anything? I don't believe you!
Last time it was the same, and this time it's the same again! What on earth is Konoha doing?! What are they trying to do?! Ah!!!
"Sage Fukasaku, please help me activate Sage Mode first! Whatever happens, let's deal with Naruto's situation first, and I'll explain later!"
Jiraiya lowered his head, pursed his lips, and clenched his fists tightly. He naturally knew what was going on. After all, Naruto had just explained why he had become the way he was now and why he had turned evil. However, he certainly couldn't tell the two sages about this now.
He needs the help of two sages to activate Sage Mode, and only then will he have a chance to defeat Naruto in his current state. If he reveals the truth now, what if the two sages run away?
He understood that because of Uchiha Tsukuyomi, the two sages and even the entire Mount Myōboku held grudges against Konoha. After all, if they hadn't attacked the Uchiha clan and given birth to a powerful figure like Uchiha Tsukuyomi, Mount Myōboku wouldn't have sought out a so-called variable, a new savior, and spread precious Sage Mode training materials throughout the ninja world just to survive.
Ultimately, this is all Konoha's fault. However, Konoha is incompetent and useless, unable to clean up their mess, so they can only let the people of the ninja world take the blame and clean up their mess.
Of course, Jiraiya didn't think there was anything wrong with what he did. However, as the sages of Mount Myōmi, Fukasaku and Shiken couldn't understand their great Will of Fire, so they couldn't understand their actions. If he understood their will and realized what the Will of Fire was, the two sages would never have criticized his behavior.
Fukasaku sighed as he looked at Jiraiya. "Little Jiraiya, how did you become like this? The boy you once were died on the day you lost your way. The one who is alive now is just a deformed creature wearing Jiraiya's skin."
boom!
The next moment, the power of Sage Chakra was forced out from Jiraiya's body. He looked at Naruto, making no attempt to hide the killing intent in his eyes, and charged straight at him.
Today, he will completely suppress Naruto! This guy who doesn't understand the Will of Fire! This guy who hurts his comrades in the village...
Even those beasts who attacked their elders—if it weren't for the nine tails within him, he would have loved to kill them!
You have utterly betrayed your parents who sacrificed their lives to seal the Nine-Tails inside you, condemning you to the fate of being a discriminated Jinchūriki!
Naruto, you little devil who's born evil, you still want to be Hokage? Now, it's up to you, Jiraiya, to put an end to your dream!
Jiraiya's face was resolute and indifferent. He would strike hard against any beast who dared to challenge the village's rules or harm his comrades.
What? You mean Sasuke? You mean Danzo? Ha, those are different!
Amidst the ruins.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's head lay quietly inside, staring blankly at the battle in the distance. No, he wasn't watching the battle; he was looking at something else.
Those souls that appeared with the death of life—after that encounter, he is now able to observe souls.
"Gurgle—hungry.—hungry"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's teeth chattered, his eyes darted around, and his mouth moved frantically. He stared at the souls with an intense, greedy hunger, as if he had just seen Yoshiko. He noticed that those souls seemed to exude a fragrance that made his mind go numb and his mouth water. He wanted it so badly… so badly…
"I want to eat so much, I'm so hungry—...hungry!" A look of extreme horror appeared on Hiruzen Sarutobi's face. As his soul grew increasingly thirsty, the cracks on his face multiplied, and the Sage Chakra within him surged wildly. Finally, at a certain moment, a bizarre mutation occurred.
His face began to elongate, his features began to expand wildly, and his mouth turned into a gaping maw, rushing towards a distant soul in an incredibly bizarre and terrifying manner.
The pain suddenly appeared in my foot—oh no, it shouldn't be foot pain!
After a blackout, a Konoha ninja suddenly regained consciousness. Looking around at everything, he sensed something was wrong. Shouldn't he be dead?
It should have been killed by that nine-tailed beast with one of its tails, so why is it fine now?
And why am I floating?
The most important thing is—
He looked down and saw an extremely long, bizarre-looking head biting his leg, staring at him with an incredibly hungry, greedy, and horrified look—not the look of someone looking at a person, but the look of someone about to starve to death looking at food.
"Sandaime-sama!"
Although it was extremely abstract, he still recognized it.
