Outside the camp in the middle of the night, Duanmu followed Captain Miyake and walked in one direction.
At the end of the road is a river valley common in the country of rivers.
The tall ninja with white hair stood in the moonlight, looking at the babbling water in the valley, wondering what he was thinking.
Captain Miyake saluted at the back of the tall ninja: “Lord Jiraiya, you are looking for us.”
Duanmu hurriedly followed and saluted, not knowing what Lord Zilaiya was looking for them.
Jilai also turned his head to see the person who came, and continued to look at the river: “Oh, Miyake. You are already a jounin, and you don’t need to lead Minato’s direct troops in the future. Do you have any ideas?”
“No idea, continue to complete the arrangement of the command, complete the task, and win this war.”
Jiraiya continued to turn his back and said, “Miyake, you are much older than Minato. There are some things Minato doesn’t know yet. I hope I can tell you.”
“To be honest, I’m not used to many things about Konoha. Many people, many ninjas, are obsessed with power struggles and continue to squander the nutrients of Konoha. Konoha is a big tree burning brightly. There are flames, but there are also shadows that the flames can’t reach. Because of the entrustment of a senior, I have long planned to travel around, but I can’t worry about Konoha. After all, this is the village where I was born and raised.”
“I’m lucky, I met Minato. I pin all my hopes on Minato. In my vision, Minato must become Hokage cleanly. Last year, Minato formed his direct troops, It was me who made it happen. You may have heard that oil girl Zhiwei also became a johnin by virtue of her mission experience. Miyake, you and oil girl Zhiwei are the first batch of johnin to go out from the troops directly under Minato, but Zhiwei We have the identity of the ninja, and some things are not easy to tell him. Therefore, Miyake, I have high expectations for you.”
Miyake said in a deep voice: “I know, Jiraiya-sama. I was also attracted by Minato Jonin’s character. From the day I joined the army directly under Minato Jonin, I knew my path. Minato. Your business is my business!”
Jiraiya turned around and said with a laugh, “I knew, Miyake, you are a ninja you can trust.”
Miyake said to Jiraiya: “I will become the first Joinin who clearly advances and retreat with Mizumon-sama, and become the team of Mizumon-sama.”
Jiraiya said with relief: “Well, I believe in you. Kosuke has a high opinion of you and is a reliable and trustworthy partner. Miyake, go lead your team and expand Minato’s influence in the war. .”
“An immortal once told me that Minato may be the child of destiny who leads the change of the times. I believe that Minato, like a little sun, can end troubled times and make Konoha better.”
Miyake said earnestly, “Lord Jiraiya, I trust your judgment, Miyake-sama will be the leader of the times.”
Jiraiya also continued: “Including the participation of Kosuke, these actions have not been made clear to Minato for the time being. As smart as Minato, I guess he has vaguely felt it. I have special expectations and arrangements for him.”
“Minato still needs to grow. This war is like the previous ninja wars. The mine will last for a long time, and Minato will eventually grow into a towering tree of Konoha.”
“Watergate’s strength is enough, but many things can’t be solved by fighting strength alone. But before fully grown, we still need our help.”
Jilai also looked at Duanmu behind Miyake, as if thinking about something.
Miyake noticed Jiraiya’s gaze and said, “Jiraiya-sama, I trust Duanmu just as you trust Minato-sama.”
Miyake continued: “Duanmu is now recognized by the Nara clan as a tainted ninja, and continuing to follow Minato-sama is not good for Minato-sama. Therefore, after I lead the team independently this time, I will take Duanmu as a direct disciple and take Duanmu away. “
Duanmu silently looked at the back of Captain Miyake, no, it should be called Mr. Miyake.
Jilai also nodded: “Well, this is the best choice. Gu Jie’s evaluation of Duanmu is also high. He is an excellent young man, but unfortunately he is still young, and he is still insecure.”
Duanmu knew that his previous behavior was too naive, and he should not have dealt with Nara Sakuji so hastily. He passively welcomed Nara Sakuji’s design without preparation. Although Duanmu thought he couldn’t do better, he still The handle is left.
Zilai also looked at Duanmu’s discouraged expression, and said: “It’s nothing, Duanmu, I believe in you. You are one of the best young people in the army directly under Watergate. In my design, Kakashi is in Ming Dynasty. , you are in the dark, and you will be the best support for Watergate.”
Duanmu said in surprise: “I didn’t expect that Lord Zilaiya would give me such a high evaluation. I am ashamed of your expectations.”
Jilai also took out a scroll from his arms and wrote the word “forbearance” on it.
Is it a ninjutsu scroll?
“This is an A-level ninjutsu practice method. Duanmu, you know, Konoha ninjutsu is very difficult to teach. Only two jounin guarantors can teach the ninjutsu treasured in the village.”
“This ninjutsu should be very suitable for you, but neither Miyake nor I can teach it to you, so I can’t teach you directly, I can only go through the process of teaching ninjutsu in the village. Miyake and I guarantee you, you can learn this with confidence Ninjutsu.”
Duanmu put his hands forward and took the ninjutsu scroll that Jiraiya handed over, his body trembled uncontrollably.
“Duanmu, you left Minato’s direct troops, not because we don’t believe you, but to provide a good political growth environment for Minato, I hope you can understand. This ninjutsu scroll is a slight compensation, I hope It can reduce some of your grievances.”
“Lord Jiraiya, I understand the truth, I will work hard to grow, and hope to help Lord Watergate as soon as possible.”
Seeing that everything was settled, Miyake left with Duanmu, ready to return to the camp.
Lord Jiraiya is still staring at the river flowing, wondering what he is thinking.
“Captain Miyake, why did Sarutobi and Shinobu Shugami speak for me?”
“As soon as I said it, I got angry. Do you remember that during the material destruction mission, I took twelve material scrolls?”
“Could it be?”
“It was all given to Kazuki Sarutobi. I already knew that Masao Nara was sending someone to investigate you, so I reached a tacit understanding with Kazuki Sarutobi early.”
“Oh, oh, Captain Miyake, you are amazing!”
“Do things in the future, or do not do them, do them well and be well prepared.”
Duanmu nodded and said, “Got it, Captain. Captain, don’t you think that Lord Jiraiya’s care for Lord Minato is a little too meticulous? Lord Minato is so strong, why is he doing this? This is really good for Lord Minato’s growth. Are you okay?”
“Hehe, you just drifted off after criticizing? Do you know how long it took for Konoha to die prematurely? Mizumo-sama still needs time, but I estimate that it will only take three or four years before no one in the ninja world can move Minato-sama. .”
“Duanmu, you are the same. If you don’t have enough strength, don’t be ostentatious. You see, I was promoted to Jōnin at the age of forty, but I have lived a long time. I have been more ostentatious than me, but they all died. I have come here for decades, but it’s been very hard work.”
“I think it’s a good thing that you didn’t get promoted this time. At the same age, with Kakashi’s background and strength, there’s nothing to do when you get promoted, and you’ll die one day if you don’t get promoted. is unclear.”
Miyake hesitated and said, “It may be a little early for you to say this. There will also be conflicts between Konoha ninjas, which is normal. In fact, whether you kill Sakuji Nara is irrelevant to the senior management. The key is to make people speechless. Konoha has died in the hands of many ninjas, not to mention, Kakashi’s father, Lord White Fang, was almost the same as Lord Jiraiya when he was at his peak. Did you design it yourself? If Konoha doesn’t fight infighting, other Shinobi villages should be on an equal footing with Konoha? If you send three tailed beasts from Shayin Village, Shayin Village will be nothing.”
Miyake continued: “If you have internal actions, you must use your brain. You must be careful and careful in the future, you know?”
“Understood, Captain.”
“In the future, don’t call me captain, call me teacher. The reason why you left the team directly under Minato Jounin is to become my disciple. From now on, it’s our master and apprentice who help each other.”
“Got it, teacher.”
This night, there was no ceremony, and Miyake officially accepted Duanmu as a disciple.
Duanmu returned to the tent, saw Shoujiu sleeping soundly, and thought silently, goodbye friends.
Opening the scroll in the dark of night, several headlines appeared, making Duanmu’s hands tremble constantly.
