Naruto: Changing Fate

Tsk... I knew you, you brat, wouldn't die like this...

After witnessing Naruto landing smoothly and safely with the help of Jiraiya who suddenly appeared, Kurama, whose heart was in his throat, finally felt relieved.Then, with a lingering fear in his heart, he raised his hand and patted his chest, secretly letting out a long sigh of relief.As the corners of his mouth twitched, he roared angrily at Naruto.

But couldn't you put it more plainly and simply?It's fun to scare people all day long, right? !

Well, calm down and calm down, Jiu Lama... I can't help it either...

The angry roar coming from within his body caused Naruto to suddenly stop slapping away the dirt stains on his body.Immediately, he was distracted and materialized his own appearance in the sealed space.While carefully comforting the big guy in front of him, while responding aloud, because he knew he was wrong, he quietly lowered his tone several notches in order to make himself appear as well-behaved and innocent as possible.

After all, I'm not completely sure that Grandpa Jiraiya can arrive in time... So, rather than getting slapped in the face after doing the textbook standard thing, it's safer to just 'wait to die'... …

ha?Just because of such a stupid reason, you almost killed yourself?Do you think I will believe it?Do you think I'm an idiot? !

I was so worried about Naruto, but in the end I realized that it was the refreshing experience of working in vain that made Nine Lama feel inexplicably the powerlessness of an old father who had been teased.So much so that he had no intention of listening to Naruto's sophistry and continued to press with bared teeth.

In the situation just now, there was obviously a better plan, but you chose the most dangerous and stupid way to petrify your body... If you didn't have other plans, the sky would probably collapse. Are you down? !

Uh...this...this...

Facing the suspicious and angry dangerous gaze of the Nine Lamas, Naruto subconsciously felt guilty and turned his head to the side, swallowing secretly.

Yes, just as Nine Lamas suspected... without using many trump cards, it would already be extremely disadvantageous to confront Orochimaru one-on-one.But he still had to work hard and do a lot of stupid things that were half the result - for example, during the attack, he deliberately did not use the Rasengan except for fear of exposing his identity.Naruto also gave up his more proficient attribute ninjutsu and instead directly used the shuriken shadow clone jutsu, which was time-consuming and laborious, and in the current state, had low returns and could not cause effective damage to Orochimaru. It was obvious that he had other plans.

Even if it is just speculation, it is enough to conclude that Orochimaru is definitely not coming to trouble Naruto specifically because of the consumption of the elephant turn clone.Naruto felt quite puzzled and curious about the reason why Orochimaru, who clearly had no hatred against him, insisted on killing him.And under the influence of vague intuition, he suspected that Orochimaru might have misunderstood something.So much so that after much deliberation, I simply gave up on attribute ninjutsu that consumed less chakra and may have better effects.Instead, he specifically chose the Sandaime Hokage's own ninjutsu, Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu, which was related to Orochimaru!

And subsequent facts proved that what Naruto had in mind was correct.

In the process of exploratory fighting using the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique and launching a surprise attack with the Shadow Clone Technique.Through the change in Orochimaru's obviously restrained killing intent in just a short moment, Naruto was able to confirm that there were indeed some concerns and misunderstandings in Orochimaru's heart.As a result, while Naruto quietly formulated a corresponding action plan, he successively performed the signature ninjutsu of people related to Orochimaru - the third generation Hokage's Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu, Jiraiya's Earth Release, Yellow Spring Numa and Sage. Mode - to further shake Orochimaru's murderous intention.Then he used interlocking calculations to consciously guide Orochimaru step by step.Let its movement track, after a large circle, use Naruto's induction positioning of the Flying Thunder God's teleportation mark applied to Jiraiya, and quietly move closer to the direction of Jiraiya.

In addition, during this process, the seemingly all-out attacks - such as the joint detonation of the detonating talisman and the powerful explosion of the Otama Rasengan - were actually made by Naruto based on Orochimaru's strength. The customized version after adjustment... that is, even if Orochimaru did not find a way to escape, but actually withstood the attack, at most it would only make Orochimaru seriously injured and on the verge of death, but he would not die on the spot.

In this case, aside from the fact that in this inconspicuous little village, there is still the most skilled medical ninja in the world of Naruto - the slug princess Senju Tsunade... even if it is only possessed by Orochimaru himself The powerful vitality matches the level of Naruto's first-ever large-scale medical ninjutsu.It is not difficult to save Orochimaru's life.

Of course, the idea of ​​using serious injuries to make the other person calm down temporarily... In a sense, Naruto and Orochimaru, who were confronting each other, had the same idea.

In other words, while Naruto was trying his best to delay time, he was also quietly making a huge gamble...

That is, when Shizune and others moved in first to rescue the troops, Jiraiya, who was Orochimaru's former good friend, was able to arrive in time to save him!

After all, if the current relationship between the characters is almost the same as what Naruto can understand based on the content of the original work... then the seventh team where the protagonist group is located, in most settings, is basically the same as the Konoha Sannin The epitome of existence is the same as a replica!

Because of this, what Naruto can completely guess is...

The deep bond that exists between Jiraiya and Orochimaru, who have been chasing after each other for most of their lives, is almost comparable to that of Naruto and Sasuke in the original work... and in a certain sense, it can be said that it is Far more than Naruto and Sasuke!

After all, the prince in the original book chases his wife...

Ahem, no, I should say...

Naruto only chased Sasuke for three years.

As for Orochimaru, who defected from the village in his early years, Jiraiya has been chasing him for most of his life!

Because of this, Naruto once suspected that Jiraiya could not persuade Orochimaru to come back, if it were not for plot killing... Well, in addition to the fact that Jiraiya had many concerns in order to protect the Konoha Ninja Village, he could not be like Naruto. It's the same as when people chase Sasuke, they are careless to the point of disregarding the consequences, and pursue him wholeheartedly to the end.And then I can’t use that unswerving emotion that moves the heaven and the earth [? 】, besides influencing Orochimaru.The main reason must be that Orochimaru's hiding place is too complicated and complicated. Jiraiya has been searching for it for many years, and it is rare for him to meet his close friend.

Under this circumstance, Naruto was [-]% sure from the previous confrontation that Orochimaru was acting alone this time and had no connection with the rest of the Akatsuki organization.This gave Naruto reason to believe that as long as he could create an opportunity for these two people to meet...well, even if he couldn't directly coax Orochimaru back to Konoha Village like Nonou and Yakushi Kabuto did.At least, Orochimaru could get rid of the inexplicable misunderstanding for Jiraiya's sake and let him go.Lest Naruto have to be wary of Orochimaru's concerns in his future life!

Of course, these things obviously cannot be said directly when the Nine Lamas are in a state of anger...

Otherwise, based on Naruto's knowledge of the Nine Lamas, the Nine Lamas at this moment would probably ignore Naruto's second half, which is also the most important purpose.Then he mistakenly believed that Naruto was trying to match up [Wait a minute, what's wrong? ! 】Jiraiya and Orochimaru, and did not hesitate to use their own lives and those of Nine Lamas as bet chips to take risks.Then he used his life to serve as a matchmaker between Jiraiya and Orochimaru [? ? ? 】Bar……

Um--?what do you want to say in the end?

This...this...that...I...

Thinking of this, when Naruto faced the obviously impatient gaze of the Nine Lamas, he decisively chose to keep silent for the time being to protect himself.Immediately after his eyes rolled around in a circle, he understood the truth that talking too much will lead to mistakes, so Naruto smiled awkwardly and changed the topic.While the Nine Lamas had no time to react, they began to quickly dissipate the embodied form of consciousness and return to their original bodies.

ah--!I heard Grandpa Jiraiya calling me!Now, Ninth Lama, let’s talk about this matter later!

ha……? !No, come back!I haven't finished speaking yet!you……!

At the same time, what Naruto didn't know was...after watching Naruto's figure completely disappear, he chose to escape in despair.The angry Nine Lama seemed to have changed into a different person in an instant, and the angry look on his face instantly disappeared.Then he lay down as lazily as ever, raising his eyebrows slightly, and carefully wrote on the ground under his body, stroke by stroke.

Huh, this brat... forget it, he must have his reasons for insisting on doing this... No, just scaring him is not enough to relieve his anger.You actually dare to scare me?It’s so lawless!I have to remember this matter and settle the account with him slowly in the future...

……

Um?Jiu Lama... seems to have calmed down...?

After his consciousness returned to his original form, Naruto deliberately distracted himself for a moment.Only after it was confirmed that the seal had not suffered any impact, which meant that the Nine Lamas had not caught up to question him, did he secretly let out a long sigh of relief.

Phew... Although I feel a little sorry, I'd better wait until the opportunity is right in the future and explain to him slowly.The top priority is to get rid of Orochimaru's hatred value that was inexplicably attracted.Otherwise, being stared at by a shadow-level powerhouse all day long would probably make you unable to even sleep...

While muttering in a low voice, Naruto didn't take long to roughly sort out the mud and water stains on his body because he was already distracted.Even the body that was originally in a petrified state, with the help of Jiraiya, took away all the remaining natural energy from the body and returned to the appearance of a normal child.Immediately after noticing the nervous and worried glances from the people around him, Naruto thought for a moment and deliberately pouted.Using a child's unique milky voice, he complained aggrievedly and coquettishly to Jiraiya: Now, I said, Grandpa Jiraiya, why are you here? I've obviously made such a big fuss... What if? A little while later at night, with just a little time, I would really be dead!

Naruto, why are you...ah?

At the same time, he carefully explored the room and confirmed that Naruto had excessive chakra consumption and some minor wounds that did not hurt his muscles and bones. The sword that Orochimaru penetrated Naruto's body had already been in Naruto's own body. With the strong vitality, combined with the healing of the Nine Lamas' Tailed Beast Chakra, he was fully recovered - and there was nothing to worry about. He couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Then he straightened his face and was about to ask Naruto why he would do such a dangerous thing as leaving the village at such a young age.However, under Naruto's sudden retort, he couldn't help but think of himself, who was drinking happily with Tsunade in the izakaya not long ago.Then, with a slightly red face, he turned his head a little guiltily, not daring to look at Naruto's pitiful and aggrieved look.

Uh... This... Well... I was doing something very important before, so I came a little late... Yes, that's it!

oh?It's a very important thing...

He spoke at the right time, interrupting Jiraiya's accusations against him, but instead made Jiraiya fall into an embarrassing state of guilt, which made Naruto burst into laughter.And then, knowing full well what Jiraiya had done, he simply blinked his eyes, pretending to be a confused and innocent child, and asked questions out of curiosity.

Could it be, you lustful fairy...Grandpa Jiraiya, were you busy drinking and chatting with some beautiful woman just now?

puff--!Drink...drink and chat?Accompany...accompany a beautiful woman? !Haha, how...how could it be...

When Shizune and others asked Jiraiya for help, due to the emergency, they did not have time to explain to Jiraiya that his date with Tsunade had actually been witnessed by everyone.So that after suddenly hearing Naruto's innocent conjecture, which happened to hit the truth, he couldn't help but feel more guilty.Then, with the corner of his mouth twitching slightly, he subconsciously changed the topic.

correct!Now is not the time to talk about this... Who did you meet?How could he become so embarrassed?

well?Who did I meet...

Faced with Jiraiya's obviously clumsy way of changing the subject, he had already seen through everything and knew that the current situation was not suitable for too much joking.Naruto tried hard to suppress his laughter, but he was happy to cooperate.Then he frowned slightly, as if he was worried about something, and started to hesitate.

Yes...well...yes...

Um?What's wrong?Too scared?

Perhaps it was Naruto's double natural disguise of age and appearance that was too deceptive.Jiraiya, who was already feeling guilty, immediately forgot about the seemingly harmless little guy in front of him, but there was no way he could be easily frightened by a dangerous being like an old fox like Danzo who was killed by his own hands.This further aroused the protective desire as an elder in his heart, allowing Jiraiya to continue speaking confidently while beating his chest.

Well, don't be afraid, it's okay. Grandpa is here to support you. Just say it... hum, I want to see which bastard without eyes dares to cause trouble for my baby Naruto!

Hmm...really...really...?

Turning his head slightly, he saw the slender figure standing behind Jiraiya, whose face gradually darkened due to the confident and proud words in his mouth.The smile that made Naruto's eyes grow stronger.Then he deliberately pretended to be embarrassed and continued to hesitate.

But...but...well...let's forget it, Grandpa Jiraiya...

ha?never mind?How could you forget it!Just tell me who it is!

Jiraiya, who didn't notice the change in Naruto's eyes, only thought that Naruto was hesitant because he was worried that he couldn't defeat the guy who was causing trouble for Naruto.Then, in order to make Naruto feel at ease, he boasted loudly.

How dare you bully a little guy like you... If I don't beat him to pieces and beat him until his parents can't recognize him, I won't call him!

Naruto [looks at Orochimaru's expression]: Well... the lecherous immortal was also a decent person before he was alive. Let's go to the incense stick before leaving.

Nine Lamas: On x, x, month, x, that brat Naruto actually dared to scare me. I will definitely make him come back in the future... [Xiaobenben holds a grudge.jpg]
