Chapter 143: 143

"Is Sunagakure ready to go to war against us?"

Hiashi asked.

However, Fugaku focused on something else.

"Hokage-sama, who is the mysterious person with the Mangekyo Sharingan, have you found out his identity?"

Jiraiya also shook his head as he looked at Fugaku: "I originally wanted to ask you for any clues, but now it seems that you don't know about him either."

When Fugaku saw that Jiraiya was suspicious of him, he responded immediately:

"I can guarantee that the Uchiha clan has absolutely nothing to do with this matter. However, since that person has a Mangekyo Sharingan, there is a high probability that he was a Uchiha ninja. I will send someone to investigate."

"I feel relieved if that is the case."

Jiraiya nodded, showing a smile. Based on his understanding, Fugaku is a person who cares about the overall situation and peace. So he will not collude with the enemy country.

Even if he did, it wouldn't be so obvious.

Minato Namikaze then asked Jiraiya:

"Hokage-sama, you mentioned to me before that after the Second Ninja War, you stayed in the Land of Rain to take in three orphans, and spent years teaching them ninjutsu. Are you saying that your three disciples are working with Danzo and others now?"

"That's right."

Jiraiya sighed, as his expression became more solemn.

He originally thought that the three of them had died in the war, and he was sad for a long time, but now it seems that they are all alive and well.

Hearing this news, Jiraiya should have been very happy, but according to the current information, through some unknown means Rasa had tied them together to Sunagakure.

Nagato has the Rennigan which was only seen once in the past with The Sage of Six Paths, and is also the son of prophecy that Jiraiya recognised. He once believed that Nagato would bring true peace to the ninja world according to the prophecy of the great toad sage.

But now, Nagato is on the opposite side of Konoha.

For Konoha, this is undoubtedly extremely bad news.

So, after some deliberation, Jiraiya ordered the establishment of an elite reconnaissance team, with Minato Namikaze serving as the captain, and the team members including Hiashi Hyuga, Shisui Uchiha, Kakashi Hatake, Might Guy, and other jonins.

Their task is to sneak into the Land of rain and investigate what is happening there.

"There's one more thing."

Jiraiya tapped the table with his hand and announced, "Mount Myoboku has decided to teach ten Konohagakure ninjas to train in Senjutsu. If you have suitable candidates, you can recommend them to me."

After hearing the news, Uchiha Fugaku's and Hyuga Hiashi's eyes lit up.

The two had already heard about the sage mode.

Especially not long ago, Jiraya used the Mount Myoboku's senjutsu to stop Kisame, saving Konoha a lot of face.

How can they not be envious of such a powerful force.

The first person Fugaku thought of was his son Uchiha Itachi. Itachi is a genius He showed amazing ninjutsu talent at a young age. If he has the opportunity to go to Mount Myoboku in the future, he will definitely learn the sage mode there.

Hiashi also wanted to try to get as many places as possible for the Hyuga family.

After all, in the third ninja war, the Hyuga clan did not perform well, especially when compared with Uchiha's Mangekyo Sharingan.

The Hyuga clan has an unprecedented thirst for power now.

In contrast, Namikaze Minato is the calmest of the three.

He came from a commoner background and had no family members, so he naturally didn't need to break his head to grab a spot. Moreover, he himself has been to Mount Myoboku long ago, and he has also learned the half-baked senjutsu.

However, Minato still thought of his disciple Kakashi, and decided to let the latter go to Mount Myoboku to try his luck.

Jiraiya took in the changes in the expressions of the three people one by one.

In short, he decided to use the power of Mount Myoboku to form an sage army in the next few years and make it the ace of Konoha.

With this strength, Jiraiya has the confidence to fight against the Demi-God of the ninja world, Hoshigaki Kisame, and a potentially powerful enemy, Nagato.

The Land of Water, Kirigakure.

The degree of cell activation in his body was controlled within an acceptable range and gradually stabilized.

This process was much smoother than what Kisame expected.

But after thinking about it, it may be difficult for most people to train in Senjutsu, but for those who are truly qualified, it will be a matter of time.

In the anime, Naruto Uzumaki only took half a month to master Mount Myoboku's senjutsu. Kisame thinks that his aptitude is no worse than Naruto, and there is no reason to be slower than the other party.

A moment later.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

More than a dozen shadow clones of disappeared in an instant, leaving only his main body.

He slowly opened his eyes and stood up.

After a person enters the sage mode, there will be a certain degree of mutation. The most typical one is Jiraiya, which has the characteristics of toads.

This is the so-called sage mask.

The more obvious the characteristics of these animals, the lower the degree of Sage mode. Taking Jiraiya as an example, it took him more than ten years to complete the sage mode training, and he had to rely on the two-life technique to enter the sage mode with the help of Fukasaku and Shima.

Kisame's sage mode is obviously more advanced than Jiraiya, and that too by many levels.

Because at this moment, there is no slug feature on his body, just some black eye shadow on his eyes, and a circular pattern on his forehead, like a black sun.

It is exactly the same as Senju Hashirama's sage mode.

"Kisame-sama, congratulations!"

A Katsuyu clone crawled over and congratulated Kisame in a very happy tone.

Tsunade also came over and looked at Kisame with a shocked expression, her eyes contained very complicated emotions.

Although she hates this guy very much, she has to admit that his talent is great, far surpassing hers. It seems that only her grandfather can compare with Kisame.

"Please get out of the way, I want to try the power of Sage mode."

Kisame warned them, and specifically assured Katsuyu that he would try his best to control his strength and not cause damage to the Shikkotsu forest.

After they retreated for a distance, Kisame took a deep breath and joined his hands together.

"Haaaa!"

With a low shout, a sapling burst out of the ground and grew into a ten-meter tall tree.

'Mokuton?'

Seeing this scene, Tsunade looked surprised and puzzled - if it was just this level of Mokuton, even she could easily do it, and there was no need to use the sage mode with great fanfare.

But she soon discovered that she was wrong.

Because, the big tree did not stop growing, but climbed to the sky again, growing to fifty meters, eighty meters, and finally more than one hundred meters in a very short period of time.

'Rumble.'

This 100-meter-high giant tree deformed with a loud noise, and in the blink of an eye, it became a huge wooden Buddha.

This Buddha is 100 meters tall, his muscles are knotted, his face is like a vajra with angry eyes, and a lifelike wooden dragon with a length of tens of meters is coiled on his arms.

Mokuton: Laughing Buddha jutsu.

This is one of the strongest techniques of Senju Hashirama. It uses the huge senjutsu Chakra to create a wooden golem with a volume comparable to the complete body of Susanoo. This golem can catch the tailed beast bomb with one hand, and is able to fight with the nine tails.

'Whoosh.'

Kisame jumped, along the huge body of the wooden golem, all the way up, and soon reached a triangular space above the wooden golem's head.

This is like the driving space of this wooden Buddha, and Kisame has become a Gundam driver at this moment.

"Is this the power of Hashirama Senju?"

He stood on the top of the wooden Buddha's head, overlooking the Shikkotsu forest below, and he felt a sense of superiority deep in his heart, like a God looking down at all beings.

From today onwards, he is Sage Hoshigaki Kisame.
