Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Jiraiya's Wholesale Intelligence
Two days later. It was still that small tavern. Jiraiya, with a wretched expression, said goodbye to a heavily made-up woman next to him. He glanced at the small note that appeared in his hand, and raised an eyebrow. The woman's name was Tegotae, and she was one of his many intelligence personnel over the years.
Jiraiya wasn't in a hurry to check the intelligence. Instead, he drank the last sip in his sake cup, and then quietly opened the small note. There were only a few lines of small characters. It was a coordinate located at the border between the Land of Iron and the Land of Fire. Land of Iron. A country that was always neutral, with only samurai and no ninjas. The location was very remote, and even during wartime, it was estimated that not many people would pay attention to it.
Logically speaking. Such coordinate intelligence that was very suitable for Orochimaru's hiding place should have some value. But Jiraiya's gradually frowning brows didn't show any happiness... "Again... the Land of Iron?" With a somewhat doubtful murmur, Jiraiya put away the small note, and then poured another cup of sake. Two days. In this small tavern, Jiraiya had received dozens of pieces of information about Orochimaru's location from different channels. Some might be a little general and not so precise. But all the information pointed to the same location.
Land of Iron. This made Jiraiya a little afraid to confirm this almost obvious information... He knew Orochimaru's cunning very well. He always left a backup plan, and he would never put himself in the most dangerous position. This time, there would be such obvious mistakes... it was too unlike Orochimaru's style!
He shook his somewhat drunk head. Jiraiya paid the money, including the sake money and the liquor money for the custom girl named Tegotae. He staggered out of the tavern, walked to a corner, and suddenly made a hand seal! Puff—
After a burst of white smoke. A small toad appeared. "Please call little Haruko over here....~." "I seem to... have forgotten the direction of the hotel, haha!" Jiraiya drunkenly explained.
Two days of effort had earned him such a piece of information that he didn't know was true or false. Jiraiya was a little conflicted in his heart... On the one hand, he felt that this was 100% Orochimaru's mockery of him. How could he find such an obvious coordinate so easily? On the other hand. Jiraiya didn't think that Orochimaru could monopolize all his information sources. That would be too embarrassing...
Jiraiya thought unhappily, and with the help of alcohol, he gradually fell asleep. Fortunately, he still had little Haruko. A kind, cute, and a little pitiful, but a little violent, little Haruko... The existence of little Haruko, at least, could help him analyze the situation, and could also send him back to the hotel by the way. It was really good... The little toad glanced at Jiraiya with contempt, didn't say anything, and just turned around and hopped away.
Not long. The little toad hopped and hopped to the location of the hotel. Qingchuan, who was taking a bath, suddenly frowned! He got up at the speed of light and put on his clothes. The skirt, which he used to wear clumsily in his early years, was put on in one second, without any hesitation, and directly picked up the sword and aimed it at the drainage outlet! The little toad had just revealed one head. Suddenly, a big knife that was much wider than his toad head was directly placed on it! The little toad was instantly alert! Puff—
Whether it was scared out of fart, or the sound of forcibly releasing the summoning. Anyway... The little toad, as a summon beast, released the summoning almost by conditioned reflex and flashed back to Mount Myoboku! Qingchuan frowned even more. "These things from Mount Myoboku... why are they all the same as Jiraiya?" "Damn... could it be a female toad?!" "Too much!"
After a scolding, Qingchuan's expression gradually became ferocious. Damn. From today onwards, the things that he had to cut on the day he took off his skirt, two of them were already occupied by the Sannin. To be honest. If it wasn't for the suddenly appearing side mission... Qingchuan would have prepared to turn towards Konoha now! Based on the reason that Jiraiya was peeking at him taking a bath all day long, see if Hiruzen Sarutobi had any face to stop him! However... Two minutes later, Qingchuan, who gradually calmed down, also realized that there was something wrong. He only remembered to hide the sword, but if he thought about it carefully... Jiraiya should have something to ask him, right? .... "Achoo!" This morning. Jiraiya, who had slept all night in the cold wind on the side of the road, sniffling, finally struggled to return to the hotel.
Qingchuan, who had already started his morning exercise, didn't know what to say when he saw this scene... "In short... all the information these two days is here." He took out all the big and small notes or big and small scrolls in his pocket and put them on the table. Jiraiya looked at Qingchuan resentfully and said in a muffled voice.
Qingchuan ignored Jiraiya as usual. He silently took back the sword and carefully checked it. Not long after. Finding the same problem, Qingchuan's brows gradually furrowed. "Are you sure this wasn't wholesale?"
Qingchuan asked with a dark face, barely holding back the urge to smash this pile of almost indistinguishable things on Jiraiya's face. And the girl's soul torture. also made Jiraiya instantly feel unloved... Two days. What he gave was not only time, but also a lot of energy, and semen... A sentence that it was wholesale, it seemed that everything was in vain...
"That's the situation, I'm not sure if Orochimaru has also bought off the Gold Exchange." Jiraiya spread out his hands, looking like he was resigned to fate. "Anyway, all the clues now point here." "Whether to go or not depends on you, little Haruko..."
Qingchuan's brows furrowed even more. He knew the name of the Gold Exchange. The information from there shouldn't be fake. But... things that went against the norm must have a demon, and his intuition told him that there must be a problem here. Moreover... The problem was very big! But now. He didn't seem to have much time to waste. Staying in the Land of Fire could only continue that seemingly endless wait... Waiting for Shisui to return and be gouged out his eyes, waiting for Itachi to evolve into a clan-destroying Itachi, waiting for Brother Tobi to put a knife on his neck... After a long time. Qingchuan glanced at Jiraiya, who was still wiping his nose, and sighed helplessly. "Then let's go."
