Namikaze Minato hesitated a bit. “Ryo, as you said, Akatsuki will at least send a Hokage-level Ninja to the village. Will it be too dangerous to make strong ninja at village to leave?”

“Of course, I didn’t mean to make all of them leave. Lord Tsunade and Kakas.h.i.+ will still stay in the village. I’ll just make s.h.i.+sui and Uncle Jiraiya out of the scene. Now s.h.i.+sui owns Susanoo with a Complete Body. One person is enough to change the battle situation…”

“…As for Uncle Jiraiya! I plan to let him “die” once so that the protagonist can grow up as soon as possible.”

“Died once? Ryo, what the h.e.l.l do you want to do? Just spill it out.” Kus.h.i.+na urged.

Yamanaka Ryo said with a smile, “It’s just a little play. We let uncle Jiraiya disappeared. Uncle Jiraiya’s death will stimulate Naruto …”

Kus.h.i.+na interrupted Yamanaka Ryo’s words, “Wait, Ryo, what did you say? Naruto? Naruto is the protagonist you keep saying!”

Yamanaka Ryo nodded, “It’s Naruto. Remember the Child of the Prophecy that Jiraiya uncle always said? I think Naruto is the Child of the Prophecy. Seeing that my plan is about to start, the Child of the Prophecy must grow up as soon as possible.”

Kus.h.i.+na immediately objected, “No, I disagree! How old do you think Naruto is? How can he be on par with Akatsuki’s strong leader?”

However, Namikaze Minato didn’t think so, “Kus.h.i.+na, Naruto’s name comes from the name of the protagonist in Jiraiya sensei’s book. Naruto is full of perseverance and determination. He never gives up. I believe in Naruto. I hope you can also trust him.”

“But Naruto is only 15 years old, will he …”

“Did we not fight for the village on the battlefield when we were 15? It’s the same. Even if something goes wrong, we can go out to help, right? But Naruto’s strength now is not enough. It’s time to raise strength, right? “

Yamanaka Ryo laughed and said, “Yes, Sage Mode! The original inheritor that lost to Jiraiya uncle over Mount Myōboku will be very angry, but they will not be able to contact you. I choose to train Naruto and let Naruto learn Sage Mode. Naruto’s huge life force and Chakra are the most suitable for Sage Mode. He should learn it in a short time. When the village is about to be destroyed, Naruto will appear on the scene to rescue the village.”

“This is really possible. After this time, Naruto will definitely grow a lot. What about Jiraiya sensei? What exactly do you say about his death?” Namikaze Minato asked.

Yamanaka Ryo explained, “I told s.h.i.+sui before when I was about to turn on Rinnegan and asked s.h.i.+sui to help watch over Uncle Jiraiya. As soon as Uncle Jiraiya leaves Konoha and heads towards Amegakure, contact me immediately. If you can’t reach me, release the Seal of Flying thunder G.o.d kunai in Scroll to contact me… I just said that Amegakure is the base of Akatsuki. Uncle Jiraiya does not have the specific information of Amegakure and the fact that Nagato owns Rinnegan. With this lack of information, even if Uncle Jiraiya enters Sage Mode, he can’t defeat Nagato. In this case, Uncle Jiraiya will die. I will save Uncle Jiraiya before he dies. Then I will ask Minato-nii to use your time and s.p.a.ce Ninjutsu to temporarily cut off the connection between Uncle Jiraiya and Mount Myōboku. so that everyone except us will think that Jiraiya uncle is dead.”

“Ryo, can you guarantee that Jiraiya-sensei will be alright?”

“I can. There is nothing I can’t do now.”

Namikaze Minato and Yamanaka Ryo glance at each other then took a deep breath. They said, “Okay, I believe in you. Everything is up to you.”

They discussed some specific details. After reaching a consensus, Namikaze Minato and his wife left. Yamanaka Ryo asked Anko to help prepare a room for the two, and he set his sights on Sasuke.

………

A few days have pa.s.sed since he rescued Deidara and Sasuke. According to Orochimaru’s information, Sasuke should have arrived near Itachi’s location soon. He didn’t want to miss this brother vs. brother combat.

With that in mind, Yamanaka Ryo teleported and arrived in a time and s.p.a.ce not far from Sasuke. It will be bad if they find him staring at their battle like watching a theater.

The safest way is to hide in time and s.p.a.ce.

………

Sasuke was now about a kilometer away from Itachi. Sasuke asked Karin, Jugo, and Suigetsu to wait for him, and he decided to go to Itachi alone.

Itachi now lived at the place that was built by the Uchiha Clan before the establishment of Konoha. Sasuke stepped down in front of Itachi, and the two brothers who hadn’t seen each other for a long time finally met at this moment.

Both of them look at each other with a complicated look. Compared to the original manga, Sasuke was calmer since he didn’t lose his parents, and Uchiha Clan also lived in peace, so Sasuke’s hatred for Itachi was not so great. It’s more like confusion than hatred.

“Why, why did Itachi do that? Why did you slaughter half of the clan, then escaping the village, and leaving in Genjutsu before leaving.”

Sasuke has been troubled by these questions for many years. He had been wondering how his original gentle big brother turned like this. Finding Itachi and ask him for answers to these questions has been the goal of Sasuke…

Today he finally stood in front of Itachi.

As Sasuke was about to talk, Itachi spoke, “Sasuke, what can your eyes see now?”

“At least farther than you can see!”

“Really? Your eyes look just like three tomoe, not Mangekyou Sharingan. I don’t know where you get your confidence from.” Itachi said. His Sharingan transformed into Mangekyō.

Then Itachi’s silhouette suddenly appeared in front of Sasuke, holding kunai and stabbing Sasuke’s heart. Sasuke pulled out Katana to confront Itachi’s Kunai.

Itachi slammed his forces and kicked Sasuke’s Katana away. Sasuke opened his hands, and Raiton Chakra moved towards Itachi with a two-handed seal Chidori Nagachi.

Itachi’s subconscious jumped away from Raiton Chakra, while Sasuke used Yamanaka Ryo’s Body Flicker Technique to teleport next to Katana, then teleported to Itachi’s face, and stabbed Itachi’s shoulder.

Itachi was stabbed by Sasuke and fell to the ground. Sasuke asked, “Itachi, I have questions to ask before everything is over.”

Itachi laughed, “Sasuke, you have become stronger!”

“Stop talking nonsense, I…” Before Sasuke can finish his words, Itachi extended his hand and pointed to the stone chair aside.

Sasuke looked at the chair and found that Itachi was still sitting on the stone chair, and Itachi in front of him turned into a magic crow.

“It’s s.h.i.+sui’s magic crow again! You really excel at Genjutsu!”

“You can’t defeat me now! You …”

Before Itachi could finish his sentence, blood suddenly flowed out of his mouth. Sasuke appeared behind the stone chair, his Katana pierced Itachi again, but this time it pierced his chest. The Sasuke, who was still talking, turned into a white snake.

(Author’s note: Recently, a bunch of friends said that the protagonist was too irritating and too OP cuz he can open the Rinnegan. He is Invincible in Ninja World. No need to take a detour. Pain attacked the village in seconds. And he should marry Pakura immediately. Whoever opposes will be given a death sentence. I admit that this kind of plot looks very cool. Still, this writing runs counter to the mutual understanding between people and people I have always written. Hokage has also been promoting this kind of thinking, and to be honest, so do I. You can say I’m naive or young. I really hope that there is a world that people can understand each other. Even if it can’t be done in reality, I can create such a World, at least in my book. So I’m sorry to make you uncomfortable, I’m sorry.)
