Konoha: This Sasuke is not too cold

Chapter 20: Conversation (1st update over the weekend)

In this way, Jiraiya and Sasuke chatted about some irrelevant topics.

"I see, are you planning to go on a spiritual trip this time? What a great idea?"

After listening to Sasuke's narration, Jiraiya nodded.

Jiraiya is a very special person, and he also has a special attraction. Sasuke is also willing to chat with him.

Jiraiya, who was orphaned as a child, was taken in as a disciple by the third generation and grew up in the war with Orochimaru and Tsunade.

He has seen the pain of war and is tired of war from the bottom of his heart.

In his early years, he accepted three disciples, Xiaonan, Yahiko, and Nagato.

Jiraiya devoted himself to teaching the three of them for three years, hoping that the three of them could change the future of the Rain Ninja Village.

Later, because of the renewed war, he had to return to Konoha.

One day, Jiraiya received a scroll from a toad, and they learned that the three children were dead.

Jiraiya realized that what he had done was wrong. Perhaps he should not teach them to become ninjas, but let them live an ordinary life.

Later, Jiraiya accepted a fourth disciple, Namikaze Minato.

Namikaze Minato did not disappoint him. He had amazing talent and even learned the space ninjutsu that no one had learned since the second generation, the Flying Thunder God Jutsu.

Relying on his own ninjutsu Rasengan and Thunder God Jutsu, Namikaze Minato became famous in the ninja world.

At that time, Jiraiya firmly believed that Namikaze Minato could change the future of the shinobi world, and he was the son of destiny in the mouth of the Great Toad Sage.

However, first due to the death of her lover and younger brother, Tsunade developed hemophobia and had to retreat from the front line.

Later, the medical reform measures were blocked again and again, which made Tsunade a little disheartened, and she left Konoha with Shizune.

Tsunade's departure seemed to be a prelude, Konoha White Fang committed suicide, and Orochimaru defected. These things happened one after another, making Jiraiya a little disheartened.

He was not an idiot, and he was well aware of the darkness in Konoha, but he was unable to change it, so he chose to leave.

Later, when Minato succeeded as Hokage, he went back once and was given some power to support Minato Namikaze.

After that, he left Konoha and embarked on the path of continuing to pursue Orochimaru.

However, within two years, the news of Namikaze Minato's death reached his ears, which completely chilled his heart.

After Namikaze Minato's death, he quietly went back twice and secretly observed the child named Naruto, but what happened to Naruto made him very angry.

But Hiruzen Sarutobi was his teacher after all. Regarding their decision, Jiraiya couldn't say much and chose to leave again. Jiraiya loved Konoha very much, but his heart was already too tired.

"Well, it's getting late, Sasuke, do you want to go to the hot springs together! I'm treating you!" Jiraiya extended an invitation to Sasuke.

Sasuke put down his tea cup and nodded. It just so happened that he still had something to ask Jiraiya.

However, it is obvious that both Sasuke and Jiraiya have forgotten something...

Due to the attack by evil cultists, the city was under emergency martial law and all hot spring pools were closed.

Being politely invited back downstairs by the girl landlady, Jiraiya and Sasuke had no choice but to go back to the room and continue staring at each other.

"So, has Jiraiya-sama investigated anything about this evil cult?" Sasuke asked.

"Nothing special" Jiraiya shook his head.

"Most of these cultists are just wandering ninjas or ordinary people who cannot refine chakra."

"The spread of believers is also formed spontaneously, and the source cannot be traced at all."

"And what they did was destroy everywhere, killing civilians or business travelers."

"The person called Hidan may know something, but that guy seems to have disappeared."

"I haven't found out whether the so-called evil gods are made up out of thin air, or do they really represent something?"

Speaking of this matter, Jiraiya had a headache.

"Really..." Sasuke also frowned slightly. He didn't know much about this evil sect. There were no detailed records in the book.

"But is Hidan's immortality really due to special changes caused by certain experiments, or does it belong to other powers?" Sasuke thought about this question.

"Well, but to be honest, the country of Yu has indeed offered a reward for the followers of the evil god recently, and the price is not low. Are you interested?" Jiraiya tilted his head and looked at Sasuke.

Jiraiya was disgusted with the senseless killings of these evil god believers, so what he said to Sasuke at first was not a joke.

Jiraiya is also very willing to help others and make money.

"Didn't Yuno Country already issue a mission to the Cloud Ninja Village?" Sasuke was a little confused.

"First of all, Yun Ninja Village also has other tasks. They can't send all their people to Tang Country to encircle and suppress this evil organization. Secondly, if these guys are eliminated one day later, more innocent people will die tragically."

"As for why we didn't issue tasks to other villages at the same time, in fact, after several ninja wars, the hatred between the villages has become difficult to reconcile."

"According to unwritten rules, during peacetime, the same task cannot be issued to two ninja villages for fear of causing conflicts."

While drinking tea, Jiraiya imparted some knowledge about the ninja world to Sasuke.

"I see" Sasuke nodded.

"What's the price?" This is the question Sasuke is most concerned about.

"The nameless ones are 10 taels each. The price of the named ones is not fixed. The ones you just killed are still over 100 million taels," Jiraiya said, touching his chin.

"Haha" Sasuke couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this.

"What's wrong?" Jiraiya looked at him strangely.

"Human beings give value to money, but money can be exchanged for human life. It's really interesting."

Sasuke looked out the window, and what he said was not just about the bounty placed on the cultists by the Kingdom of Yu.

The daimyo nobles controlled the resources, but they were just ordinary people.

Ninjas possess powerful power, but are bound by thousands of years of tradition. Ninjas can only rely on tasks to obtain rewards. What a ridiculous reason, but this is the tradition of the ninja world for thousands of years.

Where does this tradition come from?Ninja sect.

Who is the founder of Ninja Sect?Six Paths Immortal.

As for why the Sage of Six Paths set such rules, Sasuke could also figure it out.

Originally, this rule was used to restrain those who gained power, because ordinary people were too weak for them.

But his vision is too short. It is ridiculous for the strong to be restrained by the weak...

Even though we have such a convenient energy source like chakra, the world has not developed in any way for thousands of years, which is enough to explain the problem.

However, if you want to change all this, strength alone is not enough. You must fundamentally change the position of ninjas. They are no longer just tools for killing people.
