Shikamaru and the others turned their heads due to the reaction of Team 7 just now.
‘’Naruto, do you know the three of them?’’ ask Shikamaru.
Naruto stared at the orange-haired figure. ‘’Dia...’’.
Not yet Naruto continued his sentence, the orange-haired figure cut his words while doing a pose.
‘’Hei, long time no see! Trained by the Great Frog in Myobokuzan, also known as the Frog Hermit. We are a trio of Amegakure, known as Team Jiraiya, remember that and let the presence be known!’’ yahiko said with the same lebay dialect as Jiraiya.
All wild. ‘’T-Team Jiraiya?’’
‘’Jiraiya? What do you mean Jiraiya one of those Legendary Sannins?’’ ask Shikamaru.
‘’Cool and thoughtful men whose radiance of charm is unbearable?’’ ask Ino.
‘’Mm, to make all the girls fall in love with him quickly,’’ continued Hinata.
‘’Only he can use senjutsu before Yondaime-sama also mastered it,’’ Neji said.
‘’He is a man who has the spirit of life like Guy sensei,’’ Rock Lee said.
‘’And the men are admired by everyone in Konoha,’’ Choji said.
‘’No, not in Konoha alone, but everyone from the corner of the village knows him,’’ Kiba said.
‘’He is the most desired master,’’ Shino said.
‘’He was a great ninja. Very lucky to be trained by him,’’ Tenten said.
Naruto immediately put on a stupid face, as if his spirit was exiting his body after hearing all that.
Ero Sannin is just a perverted dattebayo man, Naruto said in his heart.
‘’He is Yahiko, leader of Akatsuki,’’ Sasuke said.
‘’Then the two people who were with him were Konan and Nagato. Why are they here?’’ ask Sakura.
‘’You know Ero Sannin?’’ ask Naruto.
Yahiko turned towards the boy. ‘’Yo, we meet again Nigou.’’
As usual, all of the children were overwhelmed because Yahiko called Naruto the title that only happened in Konoha.
‘’Ya, we know him. He saved our lives and became our ninjutsu teacher,’’ Nagato replied.
Naruto wildly. ‘’So it wasn't you guys who kidnapped Kakashi sensei and the others?’’
‘’Saving you?’’ ask Shikamaru.
‘’Um, yes. They came to help when we were on a mission,’’ replied Naruto.
‘’Do not worry. We are not your enemy,’’ Konan said.
‘’Why are you here?’’ ask Sasuke.
Nagato looked at the child with that cold look. ‘’The four of us are investigating something around here.’’
‘’We four? Does that mean that person is here too? Where is he?’’ ask Naruto.
‘’We split two teams to investigate the village around here,’’ Yahiko replied.
Naruto frowned. ‘’Share two teams? He is only alone, while you have three people, is that what his name is to split the dattebayo team?’’
Yahiko looked away until he finally smiled. ‘’Ttebayo? Yappari, you two are so similar. I didn't think there was a coincidence like this. Don't worry, he's a strong man, even if alone, the boy can handle it.’’
‘’Mendokuse. Since you guys talked about what, anyway?’’ ask Shikamaru.
‘’Then, we have to go,’’ Yahiko said.
Naruto and the others just stared at the departure of the three figures earlier. They also rushed to catch up until they arrived at a village.
‘’Eh? I didn't know that there was a village here too,’’ Naruto.
Without wasting any time, they headed to the village. Such a strange situation. Although many people but the village was too quiet until they saw a woman praying.
‘’Mashima-sama, Mashima-sama, please protect my children. Please, please protect them and take care of them.’’
The woman looked over and saw that there were so many children. ‘’Looks like you guys are not from this village, who are you?’’
‘’Oh? We are shinobi from Konoha who are trying—‘’
‘’Sorry to disturb you. We just passed by and stopped by for a while in this village,’’ replied Shikamaru who completes Naruto's mouth.
Naruto pulled Shikamaru's hand after understanding the situation. ‘’But what is this?’’
‘’This Mashima-sama. He sleeps underground and protects our village,’’ replied the woman.
‘’Has anything ever happened in this village?’’ ask Sakura.
The woman stared at the ground with her own eyes. ‘’We are just trying to live a quiet and peaceful life, so as not to wake Mashima-sama. Lately, one person wearing black robes came to our village and warned us if this place was in danger. So, we pray to Mashima-sama to ask for protection.’’
