Chapter 119 This Abundant Wealth
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
Seeing this scene, Sakura and the other female ninjas screamed in terror!
The power was so outrageous that they couldn't even think straight; their brains had long since given up on thinking, leaving only pure emotional outburst!
Fortunately, Akali's triple Rashomon effect is both robust and reasonable enough.
The wind wall intercepted the shockwave, the ice wall intercepted the soil and rocks, and the final magic earth flow wall finished off what the other two failed to block.
After the wind wall and ice wall collapsed one after another, the broken magic earth wall withstood the impact of the collision, allowing the women to vent their emotions in peace!
[Ding! Naruto's emotional value +9999!]
[Ding! Sakura's emotional value +9999!]
[Ding! Jiraiya's emotional value +9999!]
[Ding! Emotional value from... +999!]
Akali's panel was flooded with long-absent, massive amounts of emotion points!
However, Akali's gaze had long since moved away from her emotional state!
Looking ahead at the enormous mushroom cloud that could be seen even from within Konoha Village, Akali said with some worry:
"Where's Jiraiya? Is he dead?"
"Although I did intend to break his limbs if I caught him spying again, it would be cruel to punish someone without warning, and besides, he hasn't spyed again, and I haven't even had a chance to warn him!"
"Cough, cough, cough!"
As Akali spoke, a series of coughs rang out not far from her.
With half his body charred black and his once lion-like long hair missing a section, Jiraiya stood up, leaning on a pile of rubble.
Looking at Akali, Jiraiya said irritably, "Should I thank you for being a reasonable person?"
"Of course you should thank me!"
Akali turned her head without any surprise: "I'm not kidding!"
Seeing Jiraiya's face slowly stiffen, Akali spoke slowly and deliberately:
"This time it was my scheme, so let it go."
"From now on, if I find you spying in Konoha, you'll probably never have the thought of spying again."
"Nonsense... You wouldn't want to experience that!"
Whether it was Jiraiya's imagination or not, Akali seemed to grit her teeth when she said the words "nonsense."
But he can't care about that right now.
"I see!"
"Looking at the younger generation now, I really wonder if I'm getting old!"
Faced with Akali's demand, which was practically asking for his life, Jiraiya sighed and replied in a low voice.
As for why Jiraiya, who was quite tough before, is so easy to talk to now?
This is naturally because he lost that battle!
Although they didn't fight to the very end, Akali clearly still had energy and resources left, while he had given at least 80% of his strength and was still covered in injuries.
If we fight hard, maybe things will turn around later.
But how old is he? Fighting Akali, a teenager?
I can't compete with that; I don't have the ability, you know that?
Besides, we don't have any grudges against each other, do we?
As for Naruto, that is indeed a problem.
but……
"Are you and Naruto on good terms?" Jiraiya suddenly asked.
"Well……"
Akali glanced subtly at Naruto in the crowd and answered uncertainly:
"I guess you could say that? We're all good friends, childhood sweethearts, childhood friends?"
Of course, who is the childhood sweetheart and who is the childhood friend is uncertain.
Hearing this, Jiraiya felt much more at ease.
In Konoha, several conditions are required to become Hokage. The most stringent one is that one must be the previous Hokage or a disciple of a previous Hokage.
But of course, this cannot be told to ordinary people, so in the eyes of the general public, there are only a few conditions to become Hokage.
Gain the support of various forces in the village, meet the required strength, have high prestige and have made great contributions, and have a good relationship with the Jinchūriki.
Akali has now gained the support of the ninja clan and her strength has reached the required level.
While high reputation and great achievements are important, great achievements are secondary. Strong people can achieve great achievements no matter what. The main thing is high reputation. However, with Akali's appearance, it is impossible for her reputation not to be high.
Therefore, for her to become Hokage, there is only one last thing left: a good relationship with the Jinchuriki!
But now, they've been childhood sweethearts. In the ninja world, before the arrival of the "heavenly descendant" and before childhood sweethearts were equated with "loser," it's self-evident what kind of relationship childhood sweethearts will have in the future!
If Akali and Naruto could get married in the future, that would be great.
After all, Naruto is Minato Namikaze's son!
Jiraiya, who had not yet seen Naruto, absolutely trusted his appearance!
So, his current loss to Akali isn't a loss to a junior, but rather being beaten by his future apprentice's wife. What's the big deal? Jiraiya used to get beaten up by Kushina quite often!
Thus, based on Akali's logic of becoming Hokage, Jiraiya managed to internally resolve his feelings of defeat.
[Ding! Jiraiya's emotional value +9999!]
"Ok?"
Akali was a little confused when she saw Jiraiya cheering up again, not knowing what Jiraiya was thinking.
Seeing Jiraiya like this, Akali thought he was just naturally easygoing!
At this point, Akali suddenly had another idea.
"By the way, Jiraiya, the village must have already sent people over to check on the commotion here."
"Do you need to do me another favor?"
"What kind of help?" Jiraiya asked hastily.
"It's nothing..."
Akali flashed a classic, eight-toothed sweet smile:
"That means you'll help me cover up the truth about this encounter!"
"Okay, then you can tell me..."
Akali began to explain her plans.
She herself doesn't have any interest in pretending to be weak while actually being strong.
But Akali just glanced at her emotional points this time, and she gained nearly 150,000 emotional points from her fight with Jiraiya.
So, the thought of someone attacking her with a wrong assessment of her strength, only to find out later and be shocked and incredulous, along with the emotional points they gained, gave Akali a second thought.
Through Akali's explanation, Jiraiya gradually came to understand her thoughts.
Jiraiya could name the targets that Akali had gone to great lengths to target, even if he had no idea.
Jiraiya naturally showed a gloating expression upon hearing this, and then decided to use his understanding of the Third Danzo to help Akali increase her strength.
After all, it's hard to say that his departure from the village and his refusal to return wasn't due to the actions of certain individuals.
He left rather than betrayed the village; it was simply because he truly loved Konoha deeply and there were genuine favors owed to him.
But the three generations of ancestors were kind to him, not to Akali!
and so……
Teacher, and Danzo, I just showed you Akali; the water is deep, you can't handle it.
I'll give you a hint, but if you still can't grasp it, don't blame me!
After discussing with Jiraiya, Akali and the other female ninjas reached a consensus.
Soon after, the Third Generation arrived with his direct subordinates from the Dark Guard.
According to Jiraiya's report, the battle ended with him fighting Akali, impulsively using a Sage Mode but losing control, and ending in a disheveled state while protecting the children.
However, a tremendous shock began to spread among the high-ranking members of the ninja clan!
But that's none of Akali's business; she needs to deal with a blond kid who still doesn't understand the situation.
It was four in the morning, the night of the battle with Jiraiya, when everyone was at their sleepiest.
Beneath Naruto's pillow, a Flying Thunder God kunai that he had previously stored away lit up.
The next instant, Akali appeared silently!
Akali sniffed the smell in Naruto's room and fanned her nose in disgust.
"Naruto, you're a big boy now. You can even draw nice eyebrows and compete with those flashy, cheap girls for men. Can't you live a more refined life?"
"If those otaku who bought your photobooks find out about this, they'll be disillusioned!"
"Uh, sorry!"
Naruto got out of bed and scratched the back of his head apologetically.
Then it dawned on him: "Wait a minute, I'm much better than before, so where did I get the smell?"
After hanging out with Akali, Naruto became much richer, and money really can change a person's experience.
At least Naruto's room is no longer cluttered with instant noodle boxes, and his clothes and bedding have all been replaced with new, good ones. A good living environment can also bring a good mood, which is actually why Naruto is always grateful to Akali.
Akali felt there was a smell, but it's just that men and women have different perceptions of cleanliness.
"Besides, they'd be disillusioned anyway once they knew my gender!" Naruto retorted.
"No, perhaps some people will be even more excited?"
Akali whispered something under her breath, her eyes darting around.
After all, knowing the heavens is easy, but defying the heavens is difficult.
Before she transmigrated, she had joined a gaming group where she had actually witnessed a trans woman self-destruct.
For example, being forced to bend over all night for a certain amount of time or something...
This fully demonstrates the existence of certain markets.
Naruto: "?"
Looking at Akali's expression, Naruto began to doubt his own safety.
Fortunately, Akali realized she had steered the conversation astray.
"Alright, let's get down to business. This isn't a place to linger!"
Akali created a shadow clone, thanks to Neeko's passive ability, Innate Illusion. The clone appeared in the room, identical to Naruto in appearance, aura, and even the subtle feeling of Nine-Tails chakra.
Akali then grabbed Naruto and vanished from the spot with a Flying Thunder God Technique, while her shadow clone expressionlessly slipped into Naruto's bed, pretending that Naruto was sleeping.
Then.
A snow-covered land of ice and snow.
Akali and Naruto appeared in a small, cozy room with bright yellow lighting, after a long Flying Thunder God Technique transfer!
Naruto shivered: "It's so cold, where am I?"
"The Land of Snow, my secret base, I think I told you about that mission!"
Akali relaxed and found a stool in the room to sit down.
Because of her recent big moves, a White Zetsu has started monitoring her. Although there's only one, and they can easily fool her, it's still very annoying.
So compared to Konoha, which was under close surveillance by White Zetsu, the Land of Snow was much more comfortable. Although using the Flying Thunder God Technique to travel such a long distance with people consumed a bit of chakra, it wasn't a big problem.
"The Land of Snow? That's so far away!?"
Naruto was startled when he saw the Flying Thunder God Kunai hanging from the roof beam. He knew that Akali had brought him to an absolutely secret base, but he did not expect it to be this secret!
However, the distance in time and space is the most crucial distance. They came from the bustling Konoha to the icy and snowy Land of Snow, meaning that nothing in Konoha could interfere with them.
