The war with the Rain Ninja was over. Tsunade hurried to Might Ken, asked Might Ken to sit down, and began to treat him.

"Hey! Tsunade, I'm injured too!" Jiraiya said dissatisfiedly.

Orochimaru rolled his eyes at Jiraiya. "Idiot!"

Jiraiya was unhappy.

"What did you say? Orochimaru?"

Under the command of their respective captains, the Konoha ninjas began to clean up the battlefield and rescue the wounded.

"Lord Orochimaru! Shall we go back to camp or what?"

Moonlight Night Blade came in front of Orochimaru and asked for instructions.

Orochimaru glanced at Tsunade who was still treating Might Ken. "You guys go back to the camp first, we'll be there later!"

The Konoha ninjas quickly cleaned up the battlefield and returned to the camp in a mighty procession. Along the way, the excited voices of the Konoha ninjas could be heard.

Nawaki and Mikoto stayed behind.

"Jian! How do you feel?"

Nawaki squatted next to Might Ken and looked at Tsunade nervously.

Maitejian turned his head to Shengshu and said, "It's okay, just a few broken bones, it should be healed soon!"

Sweat kept dripping from Tsunade's forehead. The battle with Hanzo consumed a lot of her chakra and physical strength.

Might Ken turned around and saw Tsunade's exhausted look. "Tsunade, stop. It's the same if you slowly recuperate later. It won't affect my actions!"

Tsunade still insists on treating Might Ken.

Mighty Jian shook his head and stood up.

"You sit down for me!"

Tsunade's expression was very angry.

"Do you look down on me?"

Tsunade stood up but her legs suddenly went weak and a pair of hands reached out to support her.

"Let's take a break and talk later!"

Might Ken said to Tsunade with a smile.

Tsunade's angry expression slowly calmed down and she no longer insisted.

It was still raining, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

Several people came to a cave not far away to hide from the rain, and took out some dry food and military pills to eat to restore their strength.

"Orochimaru, Tsunade. I have made up my mind! I will fulfill my mission and find the child of destiny!"

Jiraiya, who was eating a cookie, suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of Orochimaru and Tsunade.

"That's just what the big toad said. Do you believe it?" Orochimaru's hoarse voice sounded.

"Even if there is a glimmer of hope, I will carry it out. The war in the ninja world is too cruel, and someone must end it!"

There was determination in Jiraiya's eyes. This war had made him see blood, cruelty and pain.

Several people didn't speak, and fell silent as they thought about the war they had experienced.

Might Ken suddenly sensed that at the entrance of the cave close to the river, three children were climbing up from the river. Just as he was about to get up to check, he suddenly remembered that in the original work, Jiraiya met Nagato and the other three in this situation.

So he said nothing and just sat down to rest.

Jiraiya and the other two also sensed Nagato and the other two.

Tsunade and Jiraiya suddenly looked over to where the three were hiding, Jiraiya seemed to be comforting them all.

"It's okay, it's just three kids."

Orochimaru came over and said, "Don't be careless, even if they are children, they are from the Land of Rain!"

Tsunade yelled at the place where the three were hiding, "Stop hiding, come out!"

An orange-haired kid wearing a strange hood came out from hiding and approached everyone.

Might Ken is watching the child. This must be Yahiko! Yahiko was quite cute when he was a child. He turns to look at where they are hiding. Are Nagato and Konan not coming out yet?

"Please give us food!" The orange-haired boy stretched out a hand to everyone.

Jiraiya looked at the child in surprise. "Where are your parents?"

"Killed in this war." Yahiko answered without a trace of emotion, as if he was numb.

Jiraiya's face changed when he heard this and he took out some biscuits and handed them to Yahiko.

"Eat it!"

Yahiko did not take the biscuit, but shouted behind him: "Nagato, Konan, come out quickly, they don't look like bad people!"

A red-haired boy and a blue-haired girl came out.

Looking at the red-haired boy, Might Ken came to Tsunade, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Tsunade, do you remember what Grandma Mito said, that there might be a child of the Uzumaki clan alive in the Rain Country?"

Tsunade also reacted. "Wait a minute, check the situation and make sure it's true."

Might Ken was very sure that Nagato was from the Uzumaki clan, but he didn't know how to convince Tsunade.

The three little ones took the cookies and started eating them.

Tsunade came to Nagato's side.

"What's your name?"

Nagato, who was eating biscuits, looked up and saw the Konoha forehead protector on Tsunade's head, and recalled the scene of the night his parents were killed.

He lowered his head, did not continue eating the cookies, and did not answer Tsunade's question.

Seeing that Nagato didn't respond, Tsunade didn't ask any further questions. She shook her head in disappointment, and seeing that the rain outside the cave had stopped, she prepared to return to the camp with everyone.

Might Ken came in front of Tsunade and stretched out his hand to stop her.

"Tsunade, don't you want to confirm it again?"

Tsunade shook her head: "There are too many people with red hair in the world. After coming to the Rain Country, I met many boys with red hair. After confirming them one by one, they are not red-haired!"

“It’s not that easy to meet!”

Might Jian did not give up and continued to persuade: "You can just use medical ninjutsu to check his body, don't give up a glimmer of hope!"

Tsunade looked at Might Ken strangely, but said nothing. She walked to Nagato and put her hand on Nagato's shoulder.

"what are you doing?"

Yahiko and Konan stood up and tried to stop Tsunade, but Might Ken stopped them both.

"It's okay, don't worry, this is the medical ninja, checking his body."

Tsunade had a look of delight on her face.

"Yes, he is the orphan of the Uzumaki clan!"

Yahiko and Konan looked at Tsunade and Nagato in confusion. Although they didn't understand, it didn't seem to be a bad thing.

Might Ken let out a long sigh, and Tsunade finally confirmed this.

If the three little ones could be brought back to Konoha, their tragic fate should be avoided. After all, Might Gun really likes these three characters in the original work.

Sheng Shu was also excited to hear the news.

"It's from the Uzumaki clan! We found another one!"

Orochimaru and Jiraiya came over. Orochimaru said coldly: "If these two hear the news, just kill them!"

Jiraiya stopped Orochimaru and said to Tsunade: "Let's take them back to Konoha together!"

Tsunade squatted in front of the three little ones and asked them gently: "Are you willing to go back to Konoha with me?"

Upon hearing this, Konan looked towards Yahiko and Nagato.

Nagato once again thought back to the night of his parents' tragic death.

"I don't want to go to Konoha!" Nagato's voice sounded weak but firm.

"I don't want to go to Konoha either!" Yahiko's voice rang out, and his determined eyes made it hard to believe that they were still children.

"I want to learn ninjutsu from you!" Yahiko continued.

Jiraiya asked curiously, "If you don't want to go to Konoha with us, why do you want to learn ninjutsu from us?"

Yahiko looked up at Jiraiya: "We want to learn ninjutsu to protect ourselves, and we also want to protect the people in the Rain Country who have been harmed by the war!"

Konan looked at Nagato and Yahiko and spoke up, "I'll listen to Yahiko and Nagato."

Might Ken frowned upon hearing that, walked over to the three of them and squatted down, trying to make his voice sound as gentle as possible: "Your name is Nagato, right? You are from the Uzumaki clan. If you go to Konoha with us, you won't have to worry about war and hunger. The people there are very nice, and there is even a grandmother who will take good care of you!"

Nagato shook his head firmly, and so did Yahiko. A glimmer of longing flashed in Konan's eyes, but after looking at Nagato and Yahiko, she lowered her head and still said nothing.

Seeing that they were still unwilling, Mightyjian didn't know what to do for a moment.

Jiraiya looked at the three little ones, feeling as if they were destined to meet. For a moment, he thought of the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage. Could it be that one of these three was the child of destiny?

Jiraiya looked at the three little ones and said, "You go back first. I will stay and take care of them until they are able to survive!"

Then Jiraiya came to the three little ones and said, "I will teach you ninjutsu. My name is Jiraiya!"

The three little ones looked up in surprise. Originally, no one was willing to teach them ninjutsu, but it turned out that there was someone who was willing to take care of them.

Tsunade looked at Nagato disappointedly. She really hoped that Nagato could follow them to Konoha. After all, he was a member of the Uzumaki clan. But for some reason he was unwilling to go to Konoha.

Matt Jian had a flash of inspiration.

"Nagato, how about this, the three of you follow us to Konoha, study for three years, and then return to the Land of Rain?"

Nagato didn't answer, but turned to look at Jiraiya.

"Jiraiya, we are willing to learn ninjutsu from you, but I don't want to go to Konoha."

Might Ken wanted to persuade him, but Tsunade stopped him: "No need, Ken, this is their insistence!"

Might Ken felt strange. Was this the inertia of fate? He clearly had the opportunity to bring the three little ones back to Konoha, but Nagato and the others refused.

If Nagato and the other two were brought back to Konoha, even if Nagato's Rinnegan was discovered, people of that era would certainly not take it too seriously given their understanding of the Rinnegan. In addition, given Nagato's identity as a member of the Uzumaki clan, he would definitely grow well under the protection of Uzumaki Mito.

Jiraiya's three little ones finally stayed, and the others started to return to the camp.
