Rain Country

Konan looked at Pain.

She didn't need to guess, she knew who did it. In the Land of Rain, only Nagato had the ability to kill Master Jiraiya.

But in the face of Yahiko's ideas, she would definitely take action to remove Jiraiya, the stone blocking their way.

Payne looked at his hands.

And the direction his ten fingers were pointing was exactly towards Naruto.

Naruto stared at the two of them blankly, his face turning pale little by little.

Muye Village

"Master Jiraiya, sacrificed?"

"Naruto and Lady Tsunade will be very sad, right?"

"Tsunade-sama's brother, lover, companion, teacher, all the people she cared about, all died..."

"I can't imagine how sad Tsunade-sama and Naruto will be after Jiraiya-sama's death..."

Hokage Building

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were moist.

"That stupid disciple didn't get a good ending either?"

Mizutomon En patted his shoulder.

"Condolences."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked expressionless.

Pure Land

Minato felt as if he was struck by a bolt of lightning.

"Jiraiya-sensei..."

The person who treated him like a son, died?

In Minato's mind, he recalled the moments he had spent with Jiraiya.

He covered his heart.

'Ninja Experience Page 25: Ninjas must not show their emotions under any circumstances, and must put their mission first. They must remember that they must not cry at any time.'

But Minato, the Fourth Hokage, did not obey at this moment.

Naruto's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations.

He didn't cry or break down and yell.

He just lowered his head and asked softly: [Did you, mother-in-law, ask him to go? ]

Tsunade closed her eyes, and after a moment, she slowly opened them and said calmly: [Yes.]

Naruto asked: "Why did you let him do this? Granny, you should know the character of the lecherous immortal very well, right? And you let him go to such a dangerous place alone! 】

As he spoke, Naruto's tone became more and more serious.

[Enough! Naruto! ]

Kakashi looked at Naruto and asked: [You don't understand the Fifth Hokage's feelings, do you? ]

Naruto was silent for a moment.

【hateful! 】

He turned, walked to the door and took the door handle.

[Naruto, where are you going? ]

Naruto didn't respond to Sakura's words.

[If the lecherous sage had been the fifth Hokage, he would never have let Granny Tsunade take the risk of doing such a messy thing.]

After whispering this, he turned the doorknob and walked out.

Sakura was about to chase after her when she was stopped by Tsunade.

[Xiaoying, alright, leave him alone. ]

On the streets of Konoha Village

The children in the street were laughing and playing.

In sharp contrast to the laughter, Naruto was silent with his hands in his pockets.

In his mind, he recalled the scenes of his time with Jiraiya over the years.

Ever since Jiraiya taught him the art of summoning spirits...

Until, a gust of wind blew and Naruto looked back.

That is a leaf.

Naruto walked to the bookstore and stared at the 'Intimate Paradise' displayed outside the store for a long time.

By dusk, he was still recalling every detail of his time with Jiraiya.

Until, he met Iruka.

【Yo. Naruto.】

Naruto stopped.

[I heard that you are very active in the mission. Everyone in the village is talking about you. Let's have a long-awaited chat. How about going to eat Ichiraku Ramen? ]

Naruto lowered his head.

[Forget it…]

After that, he put his hands in his pockets and walked past Iruka.

Ninja World

"Did you refuse your favorite Ichiraku Ramen?"

"I thought he would make a lot of noise, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect him to be so quiet."

"So, when sadness and pain reach their extreme, it silences the people who are normally noisy?"

"Yes, and vice versa. People who are usually silent and calm can explode and go crazy when they are extremely sad and in pain. I am very familiar with this scene. When an important person dies, my mind will quickly recall all the past experiences with that person. It's really magical."

"Alas. In Naruto's heart, Jiraiya is a teacher, a friend, and a father. He is like a mountain, making him feel safe. But now, this mountain has collapsed. At the same time, Naruto's heart has also collapsed."

"The innocent boy you once were will no longer have a master to accompany you."

Someone took out Jiraiya's non-bestseller "The Legend of the Solid Ninja" that he bought in the Land of Fire, and his eyes became moist.

"Jiraiya, just go with peace of mind. The brave young man in the prophecy will not let you down. His life will eventually become a story of perseverance and ninja!

Lower right corner of the screen

Qiu Li sighed.

No matter how many times he watched this passage, he would always feel a little uncomfortable.

Jiraiya was a regret for him, especially because he was not resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation and did not see the moment when Naruto became Hokage.

He recalled that when the author of Naruto was interviewed, he was asked: "Why don't you let Jiraiya be resurrected?"

The author replied: "Because I can't imagine Naruto meeting Jiraiya."

In his eyes, Jiraiya's death was perfect.

Qiu Li turned around and asked, "The three hours of the live broadcast have already passed, right?"

What he wanted to ask was, why didn’t the live broadcast end automatically?

Dabai picked his nose and said, "I made the rules. I set it to less than three hours. I was just afraid that if you sit for too long, you'll get hemorrhoids like the original author of Naruto."

Qiu Li glanced at the progress bar.

If he wants to be a man who has a beginning and an end, then he still has a long time before he is released from prison.

"I'll fast forward and skip the unimportant plot, and go straight to the final battle between Naruto and Sasuke."

He has an appointment with his former classmates tonight to play games and gain points.

"alright."

Tsunade walked to an empty corner.

She leaned against the wall and recalled when they first met.

Little Jiraiya held out his hand to her: "Nice to meet you. My name is Jiraiya. Just give me the love letter later. Please give me your advice."

Tears rolled down her cheeks.

【Fool! 】

夜晚

Naruto walked to the front of the store and stopped.

He looked at the lights in the store, as if recalling something.

Screen turn

Naruto sat on a park bench with a popsicle in his hand that had begun to melt.

"Tick."

Everyone in the ninja world looked at the soaked ground and subconsciously thought that it was a fused popsicle.

As it turned out, they guessed wrong, those were Naruto's tears.

At this time, Iruka walked over and sat down next to him.

[Naruto. I heard about Jiraiya-sama.]

Naruto said in a hoarse voice: [I hope... he can always pay attention to me. I really want him to see the moment when I become Hokage. I don't want the lecherous sage to always see my ugly side. I...]

[Jiraiya-sama has been praising you all the time, just like he was talking about his own grandson. He has been telling us proudly. He believes that you are someone who can inherit his will, and he has always believed that you will be able to become an outstanding Hokage one day.]

[Jiraiya-sama has been watching you all the time, and he must be somewhere now... He will definitely not praise you when he sees you looking so depressed. So, just be yourself that he can praise, and don't continue to be depressed.]
