Uchiha Akaishi Tour

Chapter 73 The Open and Bright Uchiha

When Kusano realized that he had been left behind by that blond-haired kid, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he immediately rushed back to the base by the sea!

When he rushed back, Kusano found that instead of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, there were three junior ninjas from Konoha who were inexplicably "stalemate" with the Chunin who were left behind. He breathed a sigh of relief.

When he saw the large ship approaching on the sea, Tokusano was overjoyed!

"God bless Kirigakure!" Overjoyed, Tousano shouted the slogan and swung his axe at the blond-haired boy who was "staring blankly at the Kirigakure reinforcements."

Fortunately, Minato reacted quickly and dodged using the Body Flicker Technique.

The blunt knife and the large axe, used to cut through the ground, carved a crack in the earth.

But the next moment, Tousano realized something was wrong—why were all the others just watching? Why didn't they help?!

At the same time, Jiraiya on the ship was also stunned—who is this person? So disrespectful? He actually wants to kill those little guys right in front of us?

The large ship had already reached the edge of the whirlpool area. Jiraiya and Akimichi Torifu, who were not in a hurry at first...

Spiritual communication!

Hyper-expansion technique!

A giant toad about ten meters tall, and... a giant whose height was clearly more than ten meters tall, appeared directly on the sea.

The two colossal creatures stomped heavily on the sea surface. The "whirlpool sea" not only failed to shake them in the slightest, but as the two concentrated their chakra under their feet to tread the water, the sea, which was perpetually a whirlpool, began to calm down because the water surface was frozen!

"You bastards from Kirigakure, what do you want to do to my cute student?" Jiraiya said, deliberately imitating the sound of his tongue.

"Although there is an agreement with the Mizukage, I will not be lenient if any Kirigakure ninja attacks our comrades in Konoha!" Akimichi said in a low voice.

"You, you all..."

Looking at the two enormous creatures on the sea, Tousano felt a sense of powerlessness.

Logically, the ambush should have been successful, but... since they're here, it means the ambush is unlikely to have succeeded.

Simply put, the ambush itself was successful, but the enemy fell into the ambush, so the battle did not achieve its intended result.

"Jiraiya-sensei!" The three Akaishi were both delighted and surprised.

The reason the three of them were fighting so desperately with the people of Kirigakure was largely because "Jiraiya-sensei and Akimichi Jonin were tricked away."

They were hoping to get information from this group of Hidden Mist Villagers so they could go and support Jiraiya-sensei, but...

"Akaishi? What happened to your eyes?" Jiraiya noticed Akaishi's eyes were bandaged when he got closer and immediately became nervous.

Eyes are extremely important to the Uchiha clan.

Who is Akaishi? His eyes darted around, and he immediately said, "Jiraiya-sensei... I... I've lost an eye! But it's alright, we protected Konoha's honor in front of the Hidden Mist Village ninjas! We didn't disgrace the Uchiha!"

Jiraiya: ...

Jiraiya, hearing Akaishi's overly emotional tone, already suspected he was talking nonsense.

Kaguya Isosuke retorted angrily, "Are you blind? How did you use illusion magic on me before you went blind? You clearly had your eyes open!"

"You said it yourself, you were under a spell, and you opened your eyes while under the spell," Akaishi said matter-of-factly.

Jiraiya: ...

Okay, now we can confirm it.

Akaishi heard it too...

The Jonin Akimichi also mentioned the "Mizukage," which means that Jiraiya and Jonin Akimichi reached some consensus with the Mizukage.

Although Akaishi was not yet aware of the situation in Kirigakure at this time, he could tell from the way they addressed each other that the "Lord Kokutachi" they were loyal to was clearly not the "Mizukage".

"Kusano, we in Konoha had already reached an agreement with the Mizukage to jointly protect the safety of the island nations at sea, with the Land of Waves as the boundary. But you not only came to steal the Uzumaki clan's legacy, but also went so far as to attack my Konoha ninjas..." Jiraiya continued, echoing Akaishi's words.

After all, it wasn't the first time...

"Enough! Just tell me what you want to do!" Kusano said firmly.

After twenty years of turmoil, Kirigakure's culture is completely different from Konoha's. There's not as much talk about "righteousness" and "reason," which makes the Konoha ninjas, who have enjoyed peace for over thirty years, quite uncomfortable.

"We originally promised the Mizukage that you could take the Bloodthirsty Star Iron, but now... you should leave all your ninja tools behind!" Jiraiya said directly.

Clearly, Jiraiya didn't intend to leave Kirigakure with either the "Bloodthirsty Star Iron" or the finished "Blunt Blade: Helmsman"—and he justified it by claiming it was compensation!

However, Akaishi glanced helplessly at Jiraiya-sensei—his teacher was too soft-hearted.

But at this point, there was no chance for me to interject...

It wasn't just a matter of identity; Akaishi was also completely unaware of the situation.

At this moment, Tsukuno was more sensible than expected, and immediately put down the blunt sword, Kabuto, and the "Bloodthirsty Star Iron" that he had collected.

After all, in Kirigakure, the barking of the loser is the least valuable thing. At this point, it's meaningless to say anything harsh or try to reason with them. The Jonin of Konoha won, so it's perfectly normal for them to dominate.

"Wait!" Akaishi suddenly called out to Jiraiya-sensei, telling him to let them leave.

"Akaishi, when you get back, you can go to Tsunade for treatment of your eyes. Maybe... she can save them." Jiraiya hinted to Akaishi that it was okay.

"Yes, I understand. Jiraiya-sensei, you, the Hokage, and our clan leader often taught us that the most important thing for a ninja is to be upright and honorable..." Akaishi suddenly began to praise.

Kusano couldn't help but glance at the Uchiha...

What kind of wording is this? You even specifically mentioned the teacher, the Hokage, and the clan leader... Are you trying to emulate the Second Tsuchikage and become a "two-sided balance master"?

"Although we were enemies before, now that we've ceased hostilities..."

At this moment, Akaishi took out a sealing scroll and said, "Release!"

After the red stone was untied, a corpse suddenly appeared in the smoke of the spirit summoning spell.

"This is the corpse of a ninja from your Hidden Mist Village. He died at the hands of your own people. I saw that you didn't have a proper burial, so I've collected it for you. You can take it with you!" Akaishi said righteously.

"Good! As expected of a Konoha ninja." Jiraiya glanced at Mizawa's corpse and then praised Akashi's magnanimity.

Would Mizawa's corpse be of any use to Konoha?

It's not that there's absolutely none...

He is at least a sealing ninja, and he may also have other secret memories about Kirigakure in his mind.

However, since it's not a bloodline ninja, its value is limited.

More importantly, Akaishi felt that sending him back would be more "meaningful".

The person behind them, Lord Kujou, seems to be bridging the gap between the common people and the ninja clan.

It is true that Shiokawa was under a spell when he killed Mingze, but that's not for him to say. As long as he is sent back, someone will naturally examine the corpse's memories.

As for the extent of this effect?

Akashi couldn't say for sure, but he knew it would definitely have an effect. The best proof was that the other party really hadn't collected his companion's body before!

Akaishi didn't believe they hadn't found it. This meant that at least Kusano and Ryu, those two Jonin, had previously thought it best not to bring his body back...

As for the brute from the Kaguya clan, he probably had no idea about this, and it seems that this Mingze is his teammate.

Although Akaishi's little brain couldn't fully grasp what was behind this, he knew that what the enemy didn't want to happen, he would make happen!
