Naruto: I don't want to work hard anymore

Chapter 46 Invitation

The girl from the Yamanaka family?
In the living room, Xianglin stretched her little head, pricked up her ears, and keenly captured the key information.

Before she could think about it, an orange figure rushed by like a hurricane and appeared at the entrance.

Behind Naruto, nine fox tails swayed gently, and a pair of scarlet fox eyes narrowed dangerously.

"Jiraiya, if this is Konoha's idea, then you know the consequences..."

"No, no, of course not!"

Jiraiya waved his hands quickly and smiled awkwardly: "Even if Konoha has such an idea, this sage will definitely not agree, don't worry."

As he said this, he handed a letter to Naruto.

Naruto opened the letter and glanced at it. It was filled with the girl's pure longing. She didn't ask him why he left, but just asked him how he was doing recently and if he could go back to see her on her birthday in a few days.

There were still some dried water marks on the letter paper, and Jiraiya took advantage of his height to get a clear look from above.

Old Baimao sighed: "Childhood sweethearts, how wonderful it is..."

"What are you lamenting about?"

Naruto glanced at him and put away the letter: "Are you popular with girls?"

puff-

Jiraiya subconsciously covered his chest, he felt like he had just been stabbed.

"But anyway, thank you for making this trip."

Naruto waved his hand: "If you have nothing else, please go back. I'm going to take a nap."

Having said that, he slammed the door shut.

"Ah this..."

Jiraiya opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping himself. His tall figure looked a little desolate.

"Please buy me some tea..."

Scratching his hair with a troubled look on his face, Jiraiya sighed in disappointment.

He wanted to persuade Naruto to return to Konoha, but he couldn't come up with a suitable reason no matter how hard he tried.

In fact, before coming here, he made a special trip to the Land of Grass to find the crew that was filming, hoping to get some advice from Tensai Okamura.

Who would have thought that when they heard that he was from Konoha, no one in the entire crew looked happy. Okamura Tensai also spread his hands and said, "I'm just a filming guy. If you have any problems, go find him yourself and don't delay our filming."

I am also helpless about this.

He had always thought that it was his life experiences that caused Naruto's cold personality.

However, it is not difficult to see from the attitudes of Okamura Tensai and the crew members that Naruto's coldness is only directed at Konoha.

"Excuse me, is Lord Uzumaki Naruto at home?"

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the yard. Jiraiya turned around and saw three ninjas from the Iwagakure Village.

Noticing Jiraiya standing in the yard, the leading Iwagakure ninja's eyes narrowed.

"With this outfit, you are... the legendary Sannin, Jiraiya?"

Jiraiya sighed: "A ninja from Iwagakure..."

"I am Kuroishi, a jonin from the Hidden Rock Village. I want to make it clear that we came to the Land of Fire through formal channels."

Kuroishi stared at Jiraiya warily and spoke rapidly, as if he was worried that Jiraiya would attack directly without following the moral code of martial arts and not give him a chance to speak.

"Ah, another visitor?"

Hearing the movement in the yard, the door opened again, and Kanazi looked at Heishi and the others: "Excuse me, may I ask what can I do for you?"

"Hello, I am Kuroishi, the jonin of Iwagakure. I am here on the orders of the Tsuchikage to invite Naruto-sama to join us at Iwagakure."

Kuroishi said, glancing at Jiraiya, then yelling loudly as if he was afraid Jiraiya couldn't hear him.

"Master Tsuchikage said that we in Iwagakure respect heroes! As long as Master Naruto is willing to come to our Iwagakure, we will certainly welcome you! As long as you are willing, Iwagakure is your home!"

Kuroishi shouted and Jiraiya's face turned dark.

Okay, okay, let’s go close to the face and turn it up, right?
Then don't blame me!
"Make an open bed to welcome you? I'm afraid there are many traps." Looking at Heishi's smug look, Jiraiya spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"Come to think of it, Naruto's father, the Fourth Hokage, has a lot of blood from your Iwagakure on his hands. Well... although you guys brought this upon yourselves, hahaha..."

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage also said that whether Lord Uzumaki Naruto chooses to join Iwagakure or not, all past grudges will be written off. The grudges of the older generation should not involve the young people. I hope that everyone can maintain friendly relations in the future."

Kuroishi glanced coldly at Jiraiya and handed a scroll to Kanako.

"In addition, Lord Tsuchikage has prepared a small gift to wish Lord Uzumaki Naruto's movie a big hit at the box office..."

"Please wait."

Kanako took the scroll and went into the house. After a while he came out again and nodded politely.

"You have come all this way, thank you for your hard work. Please come in and rest for a while."

"what--?"

Jiraiya was dumbfounded.

"snort--!"

Heishi snorted coldly, like a victorious rooster, he tilted his head, squinted his eyes, and walked past Jiraiya arrogantly.

Bang!
The door closed again.

Listening to the laughter coming from the room from time to time, Jiraiya's back looked even more desolate.

Naruto...is he planning to join Iwagakure?
hiss--

If you think about it carefully, it’s not impossible!
Although the old man Ohnoki is not a good person, he is very kind to his own people.

And unlike other villages, the Iwagakure Village has always had a good attitude towards the Jinchūriki.

Of course, there will definitely be people who are afraid of it because of its great power, but compared to the situation of Konoha where the entire village is isolated, the two are simply worlds apart.

For example, although both of them defected, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki defected because he had a personality conflict with the Tsuchikage.

Listen, what a fresh and unconventional reason for defection!
The Jinchūriki of other villages defected, and they wanted to use the whole village's strength to capture them back.

Lao Zi defected, and Ohnoki had an attitude of "once you leave, don't come back."

Looking at the two of them, someone who didn't know would think that the couple was having a quarrel...

Realizing the possibility of Naruto joining Iwagakure, Jiraiya broke out in a cold sweat and quickly hid in a big tree outside the yard, quietly observing the movements in the house.

Looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, Naruto was making tea to entertain the three Kuroishi people, while Kanako was also cutting a fruit plate.

They were talking and laughing, mostly Naruto asking questions, while Kuroishi answered them one by one in a slightly reserved manner.

The atmosphere in the room seemed very harmonious, as if everyone was having a great time.

After a long time, the door finally opened again.

Naruto personally sent the three Kuroishi people out the door, and the atmosphere among them was very harmonious.

"In that case, I will not bother you any more. Lord Tsuchikage is still waiting for our news."

"Oh! Walk slowly!"

Naruto waved his hand: "Bon voyage, come visit often when you have the chance!"

"I also hope that you will have the opportunity to visit Iwagakure. As I said before, the gate of Iwagakure is always open to you."

Heishi nodded politely and left with his men.

On the treetops, Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.

From the looks of it, I guess he didn't agree...

Very good!
that is really good!
No matter what Naruto's reason for refusing, it's a good thing that he didn't agree.

If they don't agree, the balance won't be destroyed, the war won't break out, and Konoha will still have hope!
Just as I was thinking, two dark-skinned strong men like iron towers approached from afar...

Jiraiya: "..."
