Konoha: Who is the good person?

“Gomen nasai~ Water Gate-sensei~”

Inside the newly built tent.

Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan knelt on the ground in unison, apologizing sincerely to Minato Namikaze.

“Ah~ If it's a misunderstanding, it's okay.”

So, he was left to take the blame?

Damn it!

How did I fall for it again?

“When apologizing, showing your belly is basic etiquette, you know!”

Yamanaka Kei opened a gap in the tent flap, teasing Yahiko and the others with a mischievous look.

“It's him!”

Nagato's eyes changed slightly.

Yahiko and Konan also instantly focused their gaze on Yamanaka Kei.

Slightly shorter golden hair than Minato-sensei, a more masculine face, and the same Jonin vest and black combat uniform.

Yes, that's right!

This is the guy called 'Yamanaka Kei' that Jiraiya-sensei just mentioned.

He's also the culprit who left them on the deserted island!

But they just tore down one tent, tearing down another one would be too much.

Cunning fellow!

Looks like we'll have to find another opportunity?

“Kei, where did you hear about such strange etiquette?”

Minato Namikaze's eyes were resentful, his resentment almost materialized.

“Hahaha~ Just kidding! Besides, I didn't deliberately use your image to mislead them, they just mistook me for you.”

Yamanaka Kei put his hand on Minato's shoulder, comforting his friend with a smile.

He is always cautious.

Before summoning Yahiko and the others back, he had already secretly had the little clam secretly monitor the three of them for a while.

Since the three of them are so hung up on their 'Water Gate-sensei'.

Then, of course, he has to fulfill the three's little wish.

“Sigh......”

Minato Namikaze waved his hand tiredly, not wanting to continue this topic.

Based on his years of experience being tricked.

No matter how he argues, the responsibility won't fall on his close friend.

He might even accidentally end up being at fault!

“Um, Senior Yamanaka Kei, can you tell us what you were doing when you disguised yourself as a Mist Village Anbu and went to Amegakure?”

Yahiko looked at Yamanaka Kei with a complicated expression, already having a bad premonition in his heart.

In fact, he had already thought about it before.

Why would 'Water Gate-sensei' disguise himself as an Anbu and go to Amegakure.

But because they were both disciples of Jiraiya, he didn't want to think in the worst possible direction.

Now that they have returned from the isolated island, the location is still on the border between Amegakure and the Land of Fire.

A large number of Konoha ninjas are gathered here, building a border camp.

Is it war......

Has it broken out again?

“That, in the beginning, was actually because I learned about the news of the Rinnegan.”

Yamanaka Kei glanced at Jiraiya.

Jiraiya's old face turned red, embarrassedly turning his cheek to the side.

“And then?”

Yahiko frowned and asked.

“If you want to explain the cause and effect clearly, this will be a long story......”

Yamanaka Kei waved his hand, signaling Yahiko to be calm.

After sitting down on a bench to the side, he slowly began to tell the story that he had already adapted.

Now that Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu are already dead.

Without any worries, putting some things on the table to say will undoubtedly save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

For example, how Uchiha Madara awakened the Rinnegan back then, and for example, why he transplanted it to Nagato.

He's not a mute.

Things that can be solved by saying a few words.

Why put on a proud face, waiting for others to guess and misunderstand?

After listening to the cause and effect.

Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze looked at each other, their expressions extremely solemn.

The Otsutsuki clan, Otsutsuki Kaguya, extraterrestrial visitors, and that Otsutsuki Isshiki who may not be dead......

These pasts and truths buried in history are chilling to hear!

Nagato covered his eyes with his palms in confusion.

Yahiko and Konan's faces were equally ugly.

The impact of what Yamanaka Kei said just now was too great on them.

So, their lives were arranged by others?

All tragedies, all joys, all......

“Don't be discouraged, ask yourself, do you regret meeting Konan and Yahiko?”

Yamanaka Kei casually flicked a small stone condensed with earth-attribute chakra onto Nagato's forehead, who was doubting his life.

“I don't regret it! If, if it weren't for them...... I can't imagine......”

Nagato opened his mouth in a daze, and when he raised his head again, his eyes gradually became firm.

Even if others can control their lives.

But they can't control their feelings, they are companions who truly care for each other, they are interdependent family members!

The three little ones looked at each other, and a relieved smile gradually appeared on their faces.

“It is said that everyone has their own destiny, which is destined by God, but I don't believe in fate. The past cannot be changed, but the future is under your own feet. Whether to go, which way to go, what kind of way to go, is up to you to decide.”

Yamanaka Kei smiled and got up and walked out of the tent.

Opening the door curtain, he paused and turned his head again to say to the three little ones.

“If you want to spar, you are welcome to come to me at any time, but if you lose, you have to accept the punishment!”

“Gulu~ Wh-What punishment.”

Yahiko swallowed hard, feeling that Yamanaka Kei's smile was a little malicious.

“Ryuchi Cave one-month tour.”

Yamanaka Kei raised his eyebrows, walking out of the tent in a happy mood.

“Ryuchi Cave, what is it like?”

Yahiko turned his head to look at Jiraiya-sensei beside him.

“Forests, caves, and countless snakes. If you want to survive for a month...... Well, I suggest you bring more seasonings and antidotes, hahaha~”

Jiraiya laughed, slapping his thigh.

Although Yamanaka Kei, many times, doesn't act like a serious person at all when he does things.

But sorry, he is not a serious person either!

“Ryuchi Cave is okay, if you were to stay in Mount Myoboku or Shikkotsu Forest for a month......”

Minato Namikaze's face turned green when he thought of the delicacies of Mount Myoboku.

The wriggling raw pickled worms are simply a nightmare!

As for Shikkotsu Forest......

He heard the toads of Mount Myoboku say that there, besides the Slug Sage, it seems that even tree bark cannot be found.

All the little slugs are just clones of the Slug Sage.

Want to survive for a month.

Probably can only let the Slug Sage have mercy and share some mucus to fill your stomach?

As for eating slugs......

Ugh~

No, I can't think about it anymore!

If he thinks about it any longer, he's afraid he won't be able to eat for several days in a row!

Yamanaka Kei listened to the faint sound of retching coming from the tent behind him, secretly despising Minato in his heart.

Looking at the system interface in his mind that had no reaction.

He stroked his chin and walked towards the location of Danzo's tent.

Just now, he had racked his brains and said it so emotionally, but the three little ones still haven't had their fate changed?

Why? What's missing?

Did he overlook something?
