Naruto: Uchiha’s Unserious Saga

Chapter 239: Chapter 239: A Former Friend with a Grudge



Itachi, who had arrived especially to give orders, felt the urge to cover his eyes when he saw Guy and Kakashi.

Itachi looked up.

After the last wave of attacks, four more monsters had been knocked down, leaving only three in the air.

However, these three were incredibly large.

"Itachi, what shall we do?" A jonin asked, frowning. "Although some may still continue the offensive, but..."

The monsters were too big.

At that moment, Fugaku appeared beside Itachi and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, even though the monsters are incredibly large, they are not immune."

"Oh?"

"Many powerful techniques can be used multiple times to defeat them..." Fugaku explained as he looked at Jiraiya. "Such as the Tailed Beast Ball."

Jiraiya's face immediately turned grim, and he replied coldly: "What do you mean by that, Fugaku?"

Fugaku, with unperturbed calm, replied: "I heard that you are teaching the Jinchuriki to control the Tailed Beast. I don't know how it's working."

"Naruto is still a child!" Jiraiya said in an icy voice. "He still can't properly control the tailed beast's chakra."

"I know, he's a child." Fugaku replied in a calm tone. "Even though I respect Minato, I won't do anything against him. But Jiraiya, you have to understand that a Jinchuriki will always be a Jinchuriki, no matter how we see him here in the village. Even in the rest of the world, he will always be seen as such."

Jiraiya remained silent, staring at the monsters.

"Father, I remember that…" Itachi turned his gaze to Fugaku.

Fugaku nodded silently and took out a scroll. "This is something the Hokage gave me before we left. An item that can save our lives."

Tsk!

Many jonin curled their lips.

"The Hokage… what did he put in that scroll?" Kakashi walked over to look.

"Tailed Beast Ball!" Fugaku said, not hiding it.

"What?"

Fugaku smiled and said nothing more. Instead, he unsealed the scroll towards a monster.

Immediately, an enormous pressure was felt, causing several jonin to stagger back.

A Tailed Beast Ball appeared and launched itself towards one of the monsters.

In an instant, the monster was engulfed by a huge explosion.

The monster let out a cry of pain and began to slowly fall from the sky.

"This..."

Everyone present was silent.

They had fought so hard to defeat a single monster, but the Tailed Beast Ball destroyed it with astonishing ease.

Suddenly, a figure appeared above one of the monsters, staring at everyone with contempt.

"Alright, not bad, Konoha, you destroyed many of my precious treasures… but that's as far as it goes."

A Hyuga ninja shouted: "His chakra is very similar to those monsters!"

"That's an impressive chakra, as powerful as Shisui-sama's!"

Several jonin immediately began to attack.

At the same time the two remaining creatures attacked.

Countless lightning bolts, like arrows, shot into the sky.

The entire firmament, at that instant, was tinged with the color of the rays.

In the blink of an eye, all attacks were blocked.

The next moment, the two giant creatures began to expand, and several smaller monsters began to emerge from their bodies.

"Konoha, bear my anger!"

The figure's cold voice echoed.

The small monsters swarmed down.

"Prepare for battle!"

Itachi gave the order in an icy voice. A tanto appeared in his hand.

Shisui also unsheathed his tanto, three tomoe swirling in his eyes.

The other jonin also prepared themselves.

"Attack!"

When the small monsters approached, Itachi gave an order.

Immediately a shower of kunai flew towards the enemies, all with explosive tags attached, as well as a series of ninjutsu.

[Boom! Boom! Boom!]

A series of explosions sounded.

"Itachi, we can handle these little monsters. You guys go after the big creature and its handler!" Shisui shouted.

"Okay!"

Itachi responded quickly. He then summoned a giant eagle, and together with Kakashi and Guy, they launched an attack against one of the creatures.

The mysterious figure did not try to stop them and let them approach the giant creature to confront it.

"You..."

The three were startled when they saw the figure.

He was small in stature, covered in bandages all over his body. His eyes reflected a cold, icy gaze.

Itachi frowned and asked: "Who are you? Why are you attacking Konoha?"

He added: "Don't say you are just passing by, I don't believe it!"

"Hehe!"

The figure laughed softly, and the laughter became louder and louder.

"So the Uchiha is in charge… Tsk, how Konoha has changed."

"Hmm?"

Itachi and the other two couldn't help but look at each other.

Judging from the tone of the words, could it be that the person in front of them is also from Konoha?

At least someone who is very familiar with Konoha.

"You are... Hiruko?"

A voice of doubt spread.

At some point Jiraiya had appeared above the creature.

"No mistake, you are Hiruko!"

Hearing this, Hiruko tilted her head, and it was obvious that she was smiling.

Jiraiya's expression was heavy, and he murmured: "You were one of our trusted companions, why did you get to this point?"

"Haha, hahaha!"

Hiruko started laughing maniacally.

"Companion? Jiraiya, you're still so naive, no, you're a fool!"

Suddenly, Hiruko stopped laughing and fixed her gaze on Jiraiya. "Though, sometimes I wonder, if this face of yours is really yours."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because I never thought that there are such stupid people."

Jiraiya: "..."

Itachi: "..."

Kakashi: "..."

Jiraiya took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said: "Hiruko, stop your behavior immediately, otherwise, I can't guarantee what will happen. I will try my best to give you preferential treatment based on our past friendship."

"Past friendship?"

Hiruko repeated it, and then laughed out loud again.

"Jiraiya, you are still the same!"

"Why are you always so self-righteous?"

Hiruko tilted his head, stared at Jiraiya, and said: "You are like this to everyone. Who do you think you are? A savior?"

Jiraiya said in a low voice: "I have always regarded you as companions."

"Companions?" Hiruko sneered. "What do you think companions are like?"

"Or rather..."

"Do you really regard us as companions?"

Jiraiya's gaze suddenly turned sharp. "What do you mean by this?"

"Take Orochimaru as an example." Hiruko said coldly: "You're still hoping that Orochimaru will return to Konoha, right?"

"Then tell me, what kind of treatment will Orochimaru get if he returns to Konoha now?"

Jiraiya was silent.

"Besides, do you know the real reason why Orochimaru left?"

"What?" Jiraiya was startled, and hurriedly said: "What do you mean by that?"

"Senju Nawaki!"

The people present were startled when they heard this name that had disappeared for many years.

Hiruko said calmly: "Back then, Senju Nawaki fell into a trap and died on the battlefield. Everyone was comforting Tsunade, and everyone was worried that something might happen to Tsunade. Did any of you notice Orochimaru?"

Jiraiya suddenly felt cold all over.

"Haha!" Hiruko laughed wildly, and said: "You didn't notice it, did you? I saw that Orochimaru at that time, his expression was very scary!"

Hiruko showed an evil expression, and continued: "I am very sure that Orochimaru at that time was almost collapsed. Jiraiya, did you notice it?"

"Have you forgotten that Senju Nawaki is not only Tsunade's younger brother, but also Orochimaru's favorite disciple."

Jiraiya clenched his fists.

Hiruko said coldly: "This is the companion you mentioned. Do you really understand Orochimaru? Do you really care about Orochimaru? No, you are just satisfying yourself. You regard everyone as your companion, but only you know what you are really like!"

Jiraiya, his face gloomy and a little lost in thought, was clearly struck by Hiruko's words.

Hiruko moved his neck and said: "Enough talk, let's get to work. The plan the Uchiha prepared is almost ready."

Itachi smiled coldly and said: "Indeed!"

Guy and Kakashi ran in different directions at the same time.

The three of them formed a triangle with Hiruko in the center.

"Sealed Binding Formation!"

A sealing field formed around Hiruko.

Hiruko smiled coldly and quickly formed some seals.

He deflected the sealing field that Itachi had prepared with so much effort.

"Haha!"

Hiruko laughed loudly.

"Magnet Release!"

Hiruko clasped her hands together and launched a shower of kunai at the four of them.

"Magnet Release?"

Jiraiya was dumbfounded.

Hiruko was an ordinary ninja. When did he acquire a Kekkei Genkai?

"Fire Release!"

Itachi opened his mouth and launched a flame towards Hiruko, burning both the kunai and everything in its path.

"Chidori!"

Kakashi activated his Sharingan and, with lightning running down his arm, he launched himself at Hiruko.

Hiruko narrowly dodged, gripping Kakashi's arm tightly and staring into his Sharingan.

"Yes, that's exactly it! That's what I want!"

Kakashi was stunned.

After thinking about it, Kakashi understood, and after freeing himself from Hiruko, he said: "Itachi, this guy, what he wants is the Sharingan."

Itachi didn't say anything.

The Sharingan? Wrong!

What he really wanted was the full body of an Uchiha.

The reason he and the others were able to land on the creature was probably because of him.

"Leaf Strong Whirlwind!"

Suddenly, Guy appeared in front of Hiruko.

Hiruko looked at Guy coldly and said: "You are the most useless. Let's destroy you first!"

"Explosion Release!"

Hiruko threw a punch towards Guy's foot.

[Boom!]

The next moment they were both thrown into the air.

"How could it be?"

Hiruko looked at Guy in surprise.

Not only was Guy unharmed, but the force of the blow had been so powerful that even he himself had been injured.

"Explosion Release?"

Jiraiya exclaimed again.

"Guy!"

Kakashi looked nervous and shouted: "Jiraiya-sama, don't just stand there, take action!"

"Oh, oh!" Jiraiya nodded quickly. "Just that... just that..."

He stared at Hiruko blankly, somewhat at a loss.

A seemingly ordinary companion suddenly had two Kekkei Genkai.
