Ascension failed, the system took me away

Jiraiya sighed and didn't argue.

Yahiko's death was indeed Konoha's fault.

However, from Konoha's perspective at the time, Shimura Danzo did nothing wrong.

As roots hidden in the shadow of the fire.

What Danzo Shimura has to do is to weaken all the forces around him that pose a threat to Konoha.

If it is difficult for you to make progress, then make it difficult for those around you to make progress as well.

This is the strategic policy of the village, agreed by the Hokage and executed by the Root.

Jiraiya knew that the Root had always been taking external actions, but the Root had a certain degree of autonomy.

Jiraiya had no idea what Shimura Danzo would do.

I also didn't think that Yahiko's death was related to the actions of the Root.

He had found some specific information from the mission records of the former Root Organization before coming to the Rain Country.

……

"Shimura Danzo is dead."

"Nagato, Konan, Konoha's unification of the ninja world is unstoppable."

"The era of constant wars between ninja villages is over."

"Things like this, Yahiko, will never happen again."

"You have inherited Yahiko's wish. You should understand that the world that Yahiko hopes for has already arrived."

"Come back to Konoha with me!"

Hearing Jiraiya's advice, Nagato laughed at himself.

"Yeah, I know!"

"The world that Yahiko wished for has arrived."

"But he... never had the chance to see him again."

Xiaonan standing aside also looked somewhat gloomy.

Among the three of them, Konan and Nagato didn't actually have many ideas.

It was Yahiko's ardent dream that infected them.

As partners who depend on each other, Yahiko's dream is their dream.

The two of them have been supporting him silently.

He created Akatsuki in order to bring the light of dawn to the Land of Rain.

Now the light of the dawn has appeared, but the creator has fallen into an eternal sleep of darkness.

Jiraiya sighed again.

"Yahiko... still has a chance to see the arrival of peace."

Nagato and Konan were stunned when they heard this.

"Teacher, do you know much about the Samsara Eye? You even know the Outer Path Samsara Natural Born Technique."

Nagato thought Jiraiya wanted to use this technique to revive Yahiko.

At this time, Nagato's Rinnegan had not yet been upgraded to its full potential.

Although he knew about the special resurrection ninjutsu, Gaiden Rinneganjutsu, he was unable to use it.

"No, it's not the ability of the Rinnegan."

"Nagato, your Gaiden Samsara Naturalization Technique cannot revive Yahiko."

"Because Mr. Bai has mastered the Pure Land, no one can summon the souls of the Pure Land back without his permission."

"But we can meet."

Jiraiya finished speaking and opened his palm, and a three-dimensional rune appeared on his palm.

"Mr. Bai, I am applying for permission to summon spirits, and my target is my disciple Yahiko."

The three-dimensional runes were spinning, and every time the angle changed, a different rune appeared.

As Jiraiya finished his words, a mental projection panel unfolded in the rune.

This kind of projection is different from traditional optical projection.

It is visible to living beings with spirits, but invisible to inanimate objects.

There was a kind of text displayed on it that was not common in the ninja world.

It’s just that I clearly don’t understand it, but at the first glance, I can understand its meaning.

"Enough merits, application for summoning authority approved, select target medium."

Jiraiya placed the three-dimensional rune on Tendo Pain's body.

The puppet itself was made from Yahiko's remains.

It is the best medium to recruit Yahiko's soul.

As the 3D rune scan of Yahiko's puppet was completed, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became a little eerie.

Jiraiya and Konan didn't notice much change.

But Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan, could see it clearly.

In his vision, an illusory ghost gate opened out of thin air.

A mysterious force surged out, causing slight changes in the surrounding environment.

Then a soul was spit out from the ghost gate.

Nagato suddenly became excited because he was very familiar with that face.

The one with orange hair and wearing the forehead protector of the Hidden Rain Village is Yahiko.

But at this moment, his eyes were closed and he didn't respond, as if he was sleeping.

As Yahiko's soul was summoned to the world, a barrier was unfolded by three-dimensional runes, cutting off the connection with the Pure Land.

The power of that ignorant soul was suddenly cut off, and the sleeping Yahiko soul woke up.

A message was projected into his consciousness, informing him of the current situation.

At the same time, the content displayed in the mental projection panel also changed, and a countdown appeared.

[360]

"Soul summoning completed, target's basic dwelling time is 360 seconds."

"If you need to extend your stay, you can redeem it with merits."

"Pay attention to following the rules. If you violate the rules, you will be blacklisted."

For the process of this soul-calling ceremony, Bai Yin basically copied the ancient soul-calling method of Blue Star.

Just made some minor changes.

The original version requires birth date and time, but there is no such concept in the ninja world.

So they just changed to using the remains as the medium.

And then there is the dwell time.

If the original ceremony wants to last longer, it depends on whether the Taoist priest presiding over the ceremony has strong connections.

If the host comes from a famous sect, there will be senior ancestors serving above or below in the sect.

The staff in the underworld who are responsible for the connection will give some face as long as it does not violate any regulations.

If it's just a small sect, then I'm sorry, you have to follow the rules.

The Pure Land and reincarnation systems of the Ninja World are incomplete and do not have so many complicated things.

So here we changed to pay with merit.

Want more time to catch up?

Okay, you have to pay more!

However, merit is a very precious thing in Konoha's system.

Only contributions such as inventions and creations can be rewarded with merit.

It cannot be traded, transferred or inherited.

This system is directly under the responsibility of Bai Xin.

As long as you have enough merits, you can exchange them for a resurrection spot.

But no one in Konoha can afford it right now.

Most of them just do the second best thing and summon the spirits to reminisce the past.

Jiraiya was no match for his three old classmates in research.

But he also has his own unique feature, that is natural energy.

After struggling for a while, I came up with an introductory version of natural energy.

It has lowered the threshold for practicing natural energy.

And some people have successfully sensed natural energy through this method.

Enter the sage mode of practice.

Thus, Jiraiya gained a great merit.

……

"Sensei Jiraiya, and Nagato and Konan."

"I didn't expect to meet again in this way."

Yahiko's soul waves passed through the barrier and were converted into sound.

At this moment he was also very excited, and more happy.

"Yahiko..."

Konan stretched out her hand to touch Yahiko's face, but her hand passed through and touched nothing.

Seeing this, Jiraiya quietly asked the three-dimensional rune if there was any way to touch the soul.

The answer was simple.

Okay, you have to pay more!

Jiraiya counted his remaining merits and chose to pay more money without hesitation.

Suddenly, a force was bestowed upon Yahiko.

It made him feel that his soul seemed to have become much more solid.

He raised his hand and held Xiaonan's empty white little hand.

"Xiao Nan, your hands are so cold."

"You're colder than a dead person like me. Are you too weak?"

"And Nagato, how come you are so weak that you have turned into a mummy?"
