Naruto draws Asura Chakra at the beginning

At this time, Mifune was blaming himself for thinking too highly of himself and being too arrogant.

I blame myself for being too stubborn, blaming myself for not listening to advice,

Seeing this, Jiraiya patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, let's go. You should understand now, right? Although I don't want to, but necessary sacrifices must be made,"

"Although they have grown up in the ninja world, they can still live well in the underworld. If there is a chance in the future, I will take you to the underworld to meet them,"

As Jiraiya let go of his hand, the runes on Otsutsuki Hagoromo's forehead were restored again.

The seal continued to operate, and Otsutsuki Hagoromo also fainted.

At this time, Jiraiya left the cell, and Mifune followed him out.

After closing the cell door, Jiraiya made a few seals, and the seal on the door was activated again and began to operate slowly.

Turning around and looking at Mifune, Jiraiya pointed to the other cells next to him and said, "The sons of Hagoromo Otsutsuki and some of his former subordinates are imprisoned there."

Then he pointed to the other side and said, "Uchiha Madara is being held there, do you want to take a look?"

Hearing this name, Mifune's surprised expression appeared on his face again.

He just heard him ask, "Did you capture him too?"

Jiraiya shrugged after hearing this and said, "When the battle was going on in the Land of Grass, Otsutsuki Hagoromo asked them to bring a large number of strong men from the former ninja world to attack the City of Hope."

"Want to destroy Hope City,"

"It's just that they underestimated our strength, so they all became prisoners,"

"As for Otsutsuki Hagoromo, she was captured after we went to Hades,"

Hearing this, Mifune stared at Jiraiya and asked extremely seriously, "What is your current strength?"

When Jiraiya heard his question, he looked at him, and then, Jiraiya burst out with Qi pressure,

Although he took it back in just a short moment, it was enough for Mifune to intuitively feel his strength.

Under Mifune's horrified gaze, Jiraiya said, "I have traveled through six levels and reached a new realm."

Mifune was silent for a while after hearing this, took a deep breath, and then asked, "Are you the strongest in Hope City?"

Jiraiya was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head and said, "Probably not,"

"I'm not the only one in the City of Hope who is in my realm now,"

"In addition, there are some people with special abilities in Hope City. Their realm has not reached this level, but as long as they fully utilize their abilities, their combat power can reach this level,"

The ones Jiraiya said were on the same level as him were Naruto and Minato.

They haven't competed for a long time, and even their strength is not a life-and-death struggle, so no one knows who is stronger and who is weaker.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that no matter what, Minato is the one who is invincible.

Those who have not reached the realm are naturally Nagato and Kai.

Nagato's strength has been steadily improving,

Especially after accepting Otsutsuki Isshiki's eyes,

The reincarnation eye and the mutated reincarnation eye complement each other, and his various abilities have also made great progress.

As for Kai, his ultimate body training is also very good.

Now in terms of physical strength alone, he can be said to be the best in Hope City.

The current side effects of Bamen Dunjia are getting weaker and weaker for him.

There is basically no harm to him by opening the first seven doors.

Even the death effect of the eighth door has changed.

Now he can fully control the eighth gate,

Even if all eight gates are opened, he will not die. At most, he will be weak for a period of time.

In addition, he also came up with a new secret technique, transcending the Eight Gate Dunjia,

The effect is even stronger than the Eight Gate Dunjia.

He called this secret technique the Nine Palaces.

But so far, he has not used it in front of others.

,,,

After hearing what Jiraiya said, Mifune couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The moment Jiraiya's energy exploded just now, he felt like a small boat on a stormy sea. As long as Jiraiya was willing,

Even that qi machine was enough to kill him, and it was the kind that had no resistance.

Jiraiya patted him on the shoulder again and said, "Okay, this training method will be passed on to you in the future, but this is not now,"

After Mifune nodded, Jiraiya asked him, "Do you want to see anyone else?"

Mifune waved his hand and said, "No, I already believe what you said. I know you won't lie."

Jiraiya smiled heartily after hearing this, and then said, "Just believe it. It's worth what I said to you."

Mifune also grinned when he saw this, and then he asked Jiraiya, "What about the others?"

The other people Mifune asked about were those who were captured with him.

Jiraiya thought for a while, and then decided to tell him the truth, "No one else will let them out for the time being, except you."

"Although Yeyue Ai, Terumi Mei, and Luo Sha have not done anything evil, they are more or less aware of the darkness and corruption in the Ninja Village."

"The reason why this happened is also related to their inaction and negligence, so they still need to pay some price,"

"As for the others, some must die,"

"The last thing before unification is done and new rules are set is for everyone to judge them,"

"Of course, not everyone is going to die, so I hope you and I will go and persuade them later. With you here, it will be easier for them to believe what I say, so I don't have to bring them all here to watch. Otsutsuki Hagoromo,"

Mifune was stunned when he heard this, then nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll give it a try,"

To say that Mifune has completely looked away at this time is definitely false.

Although many people from the Iron Kingdom survived and were sent back after passing the examination,

But some people still died on the battlefield,

Although I already understand the reason why Hope City does this,

But this doesn't mean that he has completely let go.

With that said, the two of them had already left Terry Prison.

After Jiraiya re-sealed the door, he took Mifune back to the ordinary cell.

The first person the two of them went to find was Terumi Mei.

Terumi Mei was placed on the other side of the prison,

There was no one else there but her,

And her cell is closed. After all, she is a woman.

Jiraiya and the others gave her everything she needed to consider.

The two came to the door of the cell,

Jiraiya knocked on the door,

After the sound of "come in" came from inside,

Jiraiya just opened the door and walked in with Mifune.

At this moment, Terumi Mei was sitting upright on the stool,

After seeing that the people coming were Jiraiya and Minato, she was stunned for a moment, and then asked a little disappointedly, "Have you figured out how to deal with me? Am I going to die?"

Although she is Mizukage and a powerful ninja, she is also a woman.

Facing life and death, she is not so free and easy now. After all, she is not married yet.

Her wish to find a perfect man to marry has not yet come true.

Jiraiya and Mifune were both stunned when they heard her question.

The two looked at each other, and without asking Terumi Mei, they went directly to sit opposite Terumi Mei.

Only then did Jiraiya ask, "Mizukage-sama, why do you think you will die as soon as I come?"

Hearing this, Terumi Mei frowned and asked, "Isn't it true? This is the first time I've seen you since I was captured here. Isn't it that you came here to announce what to do with me?"

"As the leader of Kirigakure Village, besides death, I can't think of any other way to deal with me."

Jiraiya smiled and shook his head when he heard this and said, "No, you are overthinking. The main reason I am here is to tell you a story."

Terumi Mei's frown deepened when she heard this, and she said, "Jiraiya, you are a senior, and you are the lord of Hope City,,,"

Jiraiya understood what she meant,

So he said seriously, "Don't worry, I'm certainly not joking. The leader of the three ships can testify."

Mifune on the side also nodded after hearing this.

At this time, Terumi Mei asked dubiously, "Oh? Really? Then what story do you want to tell, senior? You can start now,"

Seeing this, Jiraiya smiled slightly, and then took out some fruits from the storage ring.

These fruits are all washed, and Tsunade also specially made a box of fruit salad.

Passing the salad to Terumi Mei, Jiraiya said to her, "My wife prepared this for you, feel free to eat it, it's not poisonous,"

Hearing this, Terumi Mei also had a look of embarrassment on her face.

Then he opened the box directly, picked up a spoon, and started to enjoy the fruit salad made by Tsunade.

And Jiraiya took out the teapot, tea sets, tea leaves, drinking water,

Condensing flames in his hands and controlling the temperature, Jiraiya boiled a pot of water, brewed a pot of tea, and gave each person a cup.

Then I was ready to start telling stories,

I saw him take a sip of tea. After putting down the teacup, Jiraiya pondered for a while, and then said, "The story begins a long time ago. At that time,,,,"

Jiraiya simplified a lot what he just said to Mifune, omitted a lot, and told Terumi Mei again. In addition to this, he also told Terumi Mei about the current actions in Hope City.

In the process, Terumi Mei's mood became more and more heavy,

Especially when I heard that Hope City had begun to unify the ninja world, and Kirigakure Village was also one of the targets,

After hearing the story of the Otsutsuki clan, she couldn't help but be shocked.

Although she was already a Mizukage, she didn't know this news.

Terumi Mei has good abilities and is decisive in doing things. Otherwise, she would not be able to become the Mizukage and end the bloody era of Kirigakure Village.

Her thinking ability, acceptance ability, and understanding ability are also very good.

After Jiraiya narrated it, she roughly understood why Jiraiya came to her.

I also know the purpose of Hope City in provoking the war,

After Jiraiya finished speaking, she also finished her salad.

I saw her tapping the table with her long fingers, and then asked, "So, you hope that the city wants to break the blockade of the ninja world?"

Jiraiya nodded and said, "Yes, chakra training requires consuming potential and lifespan."

"So, we hope that the city has abolished the practice of chakra, and now we practice another kind of power,"

"And practicing this kind of power will eventually break the blockade of the ninja world, and the Otsutsuki clan is the enemy that needs to face after breaking the blockade,"

"So, we urgently want everyone in the ninja world to take action,"

"Besides this, there are some other reasons that I can't tell you now, but you will know them later,"

"Only when the Ninja world is unified and accepts the ideological transformation of Hope City, can the Ninja world slowly achieve peace,"

"And at about the same time, we will also announce the new practice at that time, so as to achieve the goal of all people practicing it and jointly defending against the enemy,"

Hearing this, Mei Terumi asked with some confusion, "According to what you just said, the number of the Otsutsuki clan is only a few thousand."

"You also said that you are confident that you will start to counterattack that clan in the next few years, and you are also confident that you can eliminate that clan,"

"Then who are you teaching new cultivation methods to resist?"

Jiraiya looked at her strangely when he heard this, and then said, "As I said just now, the universe is so big, not only our ninja world and Takamagahara,"

"There are also other places where life exists, as evidenced by the fruit of the sacred tree of the Otsutsuki clan."

"Although we have never met him, it does not prevent his existence,"

"And in some unknown places, there may be existences that are the same as the Otsutsuki clan, or even stronger than them,"

"If we are not strong, how can we resist their attacks?"

Terumi Mei heard Jiraiya's explanation and couldn't help but coughed in embarrassment.

Jiraiya said it just now, but at that time she was concentrating on eating salad,

So I didn’t listen in detail.

"Ahem, so what's your purpose for coming to me? You're not going to let me join Hope City, right?"

Jiraiya waved his hand after hearing this and said, "Don't even think about joining Hope City. Hope City's population is now close to saturation and will not recruit residents for a while."

"The reason why I came to you is that I need your help to lead Kirigakure Village to truly accept the transformation of Hope City,"

Terumi Mei couldn't help but feel a little angry after hearing the first half of Jiraiya's words.

You said this as if she was very interested in joining Hope City.

She calmed down after hearing the second half,

She asked in a deep voice, "What if I refuse? What will be the consequences?"

When Jiraiya heard this, he spread his hands and said, "There are no consequences. The mistake you made is not big, and your punishment will be lighter."

"After the trial is over and you have been punished, you can leave Hope City,"

"Of course, this is personal,"

"But Kirigakure Village is different. As I told you just now, it is necessary to unify the ninja world in Hope City, and time is a little tight,"

"Anyone who dares to destroy this road of reunification is the enemy. As for the enemy, I believe you have seen how Hope City handles it on the battlefield,"
