Chapter 325
Naruto sat up suddenly, looked at his master who was not in tune, exhaled deeply, looked at the dark sky with a confused expression, and asked: "Hey, lecherous immortal, if I learn all the moves of the me on the sky and become as strong as him, I can become Hokage?"
"How can it be that simple? It's not that easy to be a Hokage." Jiraiya refuted without thinking, but changed his attitude the next second: "But if you can achieve the future golden form and get everyone's recognition, I think even if you are a little worse in handling government affairs, everyone will support you to become Hokage. In a word, although it is not enough, it is not much different."
"Really? As long as I learn the me on the sky, I can become stronger, and I have a chance to become Hokage..." Naruto's emotions did not fluctuate. Logically speaking, he should be very excited to hear such a development.
Jiraiya noticed his state and turned his head to look at him in confusion: "What's wrong with you, Naruto? Isn't it good to become stronger? Isn't it good to become Hokage? Why don't you seem to be very happy?"
"No, it's not that I'm not happy, it's just... how should I put it..." Naruto scratched his head in distress, organized his words and said: "I don't seem to have the motivation I had before, whether it's becoming stronger or becoming Hokage, I used to care about these two things the most... But now, when I think that I can realize these dreams by learning from the me on the sky, I don't want to move at all. What's wrong with me?"
Hearing this, Jiraiya immediately showed a serious expression. With rich life experience, he saw at a glance that Naruto had entered the sage mode and his spiritual world showed symptoms of emptiness.
But it's no wonder. Although he and Kakashi repeatedly reminded Naruto not to substitute himself for the other self on the sky, the two are the same person in a sense. It's not easy to completely cut off the connection between each other.
To put it another way, even if they can calmly distinguish each other, the future shown by the sky curtain will inevitably affect those who have appeared.
Apart from other things, just the point of improving strength, after their future selves use new moves and new skills to do many remarkable deeds, can they restrain their minds and give up learning these moves and skills now?
Therefore, it can be said that after the appearance of the sky curtain, those who have appeared and achieved good results, their life trajectories are almost fixed, and what's more, as the parties involved, they also know in advance what their goals will look like, which leads to their complete loss of surprises in life, and it is almost inevitable that they will become confused.
This question is very complicated, but it is also very simple. After thinking about Naruto's question, Jiraiya said, "You are just bored. It's uncomfortable to be trapped in Konoha all the time! Don't think too much, practice well, get a good score in the Chunin Exam, and complete the commission of the female star after it's over. After that, I will take you out for training and make sure you can have enough fun in various places in the Ninja World!"
Jiraiya did not intend to explain the reason for the problem to Naruto. Anyway, he couldn't understand no matter how deep or shallow it was. Just tell him the result.
As expected, when he heard that he could go to various places in the Ninja World to gain experience, Naruto immediately threw away that confusion, stood up and shouted loudly, and continued to refine chakra and practice spiritual summoning.
Jiraiya suddenly felt funny and shook his head. Maybe even without his explanation, this guy would adjust his mentality. If he was defeated so easily, the title of the son of prophecy would be too weak.
Just as Jiraiya was sighing, the sky that had been silent before suddenly lit up after a flash, and the eighth sky curtain began.
At the same time, in the Hidden Rain Village, in a hidden cave somewhere.
Nagato sent a long-unseen signal to all members to assemble. Not long after, except for Tendo Pain and Konan who appeared in person, everyone else appeared at the gathering place through the illusion body technique.
"Hey, hey, hey, why are you calling us all of a sudden? I just found a good sacrifice and I'm going to sacrifice him to the evil god!"
Hidan shouted loudly as he appeared on the stage. He looked at Tendo Pain standing in the middle and said without any respect: "Speaking of which, the reason why I joined this organization is to get better and more sacrifices to please the evil god, but now I do mercenary tasks all day to make money, and even have to help Kakuzu carry corpses for money. Although the sect I believe in sounds very similar to the Kakin Cult (evil god cult), it has nothing to do with money!"
Hidan complained for a long time, and then looked around at the people around him.Other members asked, "Where is the guy with the mask called Afei? Isn't that the leader of Akatsuki? If he is, let him come out to preside over the meeting. Although I don't care who is the boss, that guy is more to my taste. Doesn't he want to start a war? I fully support him!"
Kakuzu glanced at Tendo Pain, then turned to look at Hidan, and said in a stiff tone: "Hidan, if you keep talking, don't blame me for twisting your head off. Letting you carry the corpse is to make up for the time you wasted in the ritual. I'm very polite not to kill you directly!"
"Oh, then should I thank you, or let's fight and see if you can kill me!" Hidan shook his neck provocatively.
Deidara ignored the two people who were on the edge of their seats, but he was a little interested in the Afei mentioned by Feiduan, and asked directly: "Boss, can you explain what the Afei is about? Although I don't care who leads me like Feiduan, at least let me know what the purpose of our organization is!"
"Let me explain this question." A familiar yet unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded, and Afei walked out of the darkness and stood opposite Tendo Pain.
Everyone looked at him with inquiring eyes, and among them, Hoshigaki Kisame's eyes were the most complicated, because he was fooled in by this guy who claimed to be Uchiha Madara. When it was impossible to judge which of his words were true and which were false, the big pie he painted for himself made people not want to fight for it.
Ah Fei was about to explain, but Tendou Pain, who had been silent since the meeting, suddenly interrupted Ah Fei: "A Fei, although I agreed to cooperate with you, you must not push your luck. I am the leader of the Akatsuki organization. If you want to be the leader, think about it after I die!"
