One Dragon Tail Kick will shatter your Susanoo dream!

As time passed, and with the Jinchuriki's whereabouts completely vanished, Danzo Shimura stopped leaving his house altogether, and Obito Uchiha could only helplessly accept the failure of the mission.

After passing through the barrier, they returned to Kusagakure to await orders. Kusagakure, who knew all this, didn't take it to heart. He sent Obito and the others there, thinking more about training them, since failure is the mother of success.

However, Kusashi was stunned to hear from Obito that Naruto had been captured and taken to Root, and that the Third Hokage had not made any statement about it.

After a moment's thought, Kusashi told Obito to go back and strengthen the teamwork and combat coordination between Karin's squad, while he himself sped away in one direction.

They soon arrived at their destination, where a lavishly decorated lobby housed scantily clad dealers distributing playing cards to the guests.

A woman with an equally generous heart was also among the guests, and everyone was watching where she placed her bets, making a fortune.

Tsunade, having once again squandered all her money, angrily pulled aside a white-haired man wearing a toad mask.

"Hey, Jiraiya, lend me all the money!"

Jiraiya quickly waved his hand and said righteously.

"I have no money left, and if I do, it's only enough for food!"

"Shut up, stop lying. The old man loves to give you tasks; you definitely have ulterior motives!"

Just as Tsunade was about to throw a tantrum and threaten the other party with force, she was interrupted by a voice and turned around with a displeased expression.

"Who is it, you blind fool, asking for a beating!"

"I, Cao Zhi, am your dear leader and mentor in our career!"

"I don't care what you're talking about, I'm here for money. Whatever you want to say, wait until I get the money!"

"I really don't have any money, Tsunade, please don't touch me like that..."

Suddenly, a glittering black card appeared in front of Tsunade, and the other party's attitude immediately became respectful.

"Take my supplementary black card and get out!"

"Alright, my dear Lord Kusakage!"

Tsunade took the card and disappeared in the blink of an eye, her speed comparable to the Flying Thunder God Technique. Jiraiya, tidying up his disheveled clothes, asked somewhat awkwardly.

"Brother Cao, what brings you here!"

Kusaji feigned sadness and put his arm around Jiraiya's shoulder.

"Hey there! Aren't we on the same side?"

"...What happened?"

Jiraiya jumped off the grass and assumed a defensive stance.

"Hehe, Brother Cao, you've misunderstood."

"I absolutely have no intention of bringing Tsunade back to Konoha!"

"If you have any objections, I'll leave the Land of Grass right now!"

Cao Zhi stood with his hands on his hips, striking a pose.

"Hey, what are you doing? I'm just trying to build a relationship with you, why are you acting like this!"

Kusashiba pulled the skeptical Jiraiya in front of him and then stuffed a beautifully packaged book into his arms. Jiraiya squinted at the explicit images on the book and immediately revealed a lewd smile.

"Seriously, Brother Cao, how could you send me something like this? You really are something else!"

"?"

"You've chosen the right person!"

Jiraiya carefully packed the Caribbean pirates into a scroll and then tucked it back into his pocket.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

Cao Zhi nodded, then took out another document.

"This is the business plan for the gambling... entertainment center to open a branch in the Land of Fire. Take a look!"

Jiraiya immediately waved his hand, indicating that he came out to find a savior to lead the ninja world in resisting the alien invaders, and that he did not understand or participate in these business matters!

Seeing this, Kusaji rummaged through his pockets again and handed Jiraiya a card with a dough figurine of two women printed on it.

"This is a VIP card that provides a one-stop service; the money in it is enough for you to hire 100 dragons!"

"Ah, how can this be? That's the Land of Fire, the place where I was born!"

Cao Zhi took out another scroll.

"There's a complete set of monster girl figures here, including limited editions!"

Jiraiya's face contorted with conflicted emotions before he snatched the scroll from Kusashi's hand.

"Alright, since Brother Cao is so sincere, I'll go back to the village and give it to the old... Hokage to take a look!"

"But I can't guarantee whether it will be successful!"

Kusaji squinted and nodded repeatedly. He didn't really care about the so-called branch opening. His main purpose was to get Jiraiya back to the village to find out Naruto's true whereabouts!

"Alright, here you come, brother. Enjoy yourself. When you're ready to leave, just let me know and I'll personally send someone to take you!"

Jiraiya waved his hand, revealing a confident smile.

"No need, you're too busy with official duties, you should just stay in your office!"

Looking in the direction Jiraiya left, towards the all-inclusive service area, Kusaji shook his head with a disdainful look.

"Tch, what a lecherous brat..."

"Hey, let's go see what Yekura is up to. Didn't she say she bought a new uniform last time?"

Inside the Root base, Naruto and Shin were leaping back and forth among the trees, constantly throwing kunai from their hands. A moment later, the two landed.

Danzo Shimura stood on a tree with his arms crossed, a broad smile on his face, while a Root ninja stepped forward to report data.

"Signature! 12 shots, 12 hits the bullseye!"

"Naruto……"

Danzo Shimura looked up, asking with displeasure.

"data!"

"12 throws, 8 missed the target, and the whereabouts of 4 kunai are unknown..."

Danzo Shimura's smile gradually disappeared, and then he appeared in front of Naruto with a gloomy face. With a "bang," he brought down a hammer, and Naruto immediately covered his head and squatted down in pain.

"Old man!"

"Old man!"

"I've personally taught you for so many days, and you idiot!"

Naruto covered the large bump on his head, his eyes filled with grievance.

"I've improved a lot, you old man with the straps!"

"I've even learned how to tread water!"

"boom!"

Another hammer blow landed, and Naruto licked another packet of medicine on his head before collapsing to the ground in pain.

"How dare you ask? I taught you how to tread water for a whole week, and I still fell in quite a few times!"

"You're not getting any food today!"

After finishing his sentence, Danzo Shimura left with a gloomy face.

Naruto was helped up by Shin. Ever since he sensed that the person monitoring him had left, Danzo Shimura had returned to Root. In order to leave an emotional bond, he personally took charge of guiding Naruto, so that Naruto could see him as a pillar of support after Naruto lost his emotions!

As a result, Naruto not only failed to learn ninjutsu, but his basic training was also a complete mess!

This time the jump was relatively good; in the previous few days, it was common for me to trip and fall while jumping!

Shin sighed softly as he watched Naruto sitting on the ground, grinning foolishly as if lost in thought.

"Just hang in there, Xiao Zuo! Your brother will definitely complete the mission and free you!"
