The members of the Uchiha clan squad, upon hearing Ryosuke's words, found it a bit unbelievable.
'Hidden Rain Village is nothing more than a small village, although it has someone like the demigod of the shinobi world, Hanzo.'
If Jiraiya went to that place, then it would indeed be a bit dangerous.
'But although Hanzo is called a demigod of the shinobi world, he doesn't seem as strong as Ryosuke.'
And Jiraiya being able to fight Ryosuke and force Ryosuke to use the Eight Gates Technique, this proves Jiraiya's strength.
'He definitely has Kage-level strength.'
To kill a Kage-level expert, in the shinobi world, that is still extremely difficult. Because apart from Hanzo, Hidden Rain Village doesn't have any other famous experts. Naturally, if he wanted to escape, he probably still could escape.
Tsunade also furrowed her brows tightly. 'Why would Ryosuke say such a thing? Could it be that Jiraiya really will die in the future?'
This made Tsunade unable to help but worry. Although Jiraiya liked peeping, it wasn't to the point of costing his life.
'Could it be that there's an extremely terrifying fighting force in Hidden Rain Village?'
These past ten-plus years, Hidden Rain Village had become extremely closed off. As if completely cut off from the shinobi world.
Outsiders simply have no way of knowing what is going on inside. Back then, the demigod of the shinobi world, Hanzo, was indeed very strong, able to fight the three Sannin all at once.
But so many years have passed. Jiraiya has also grown a lot, even capable of using Sage Mode. If Jiraiya were to face off against Hanzo, even if he couldn't win, he should at least be able to retreat safely without any problem.
It should be known that Jiraiya had a summoning contract with the frogs of Mount Myoboku. At the very least, by using reverse summoning, he should be able to escape.
And what's called the demigod Hanzo was just more dangerous in terms of his poison attacks.
In group battles, that has a big effect.
But in one-on-one fights, he might not necessarily gain a clear advantage. And knowing that the opponent uses poisonous attacks, of course, you wouldn't choose to fight head-on.
It's very hard to imagine Jiraiya dying in Hidden Rain Village.
But it was also hard to believe that Ryosuke would intentionally deceive Jiraiya. There must be some basis for what he said.
Jiraiya, upon hearing Ryosuke's words, even though it was a warning to himself, got a bit angry.
"Bastard! I'm already willing to serve time, and now you want to curse me to die?"
Although he was no match for Uchiha Ryosuke, other people in the shinobi world wouldn't find it so easy to kill him either.
Besides, why would he go to Hidden Rain Village, a place where it rains all year round. There's nothing fun about it at all.
Ryosuke knew his words were a bit abrupt, so he wasn't too angry at Jiraiya's rudeness. He could only prove it using that method.
"Don't resist. Let me show you some images."
After speaking, he slowly activated his three-tomoe Sharingan. With the gathering of eye power, he cast a genjutsu to show Jiraiya some images from his own memories.
Jiraiya sensed the genjutsu and instinctively wanted to resist. But since Ryosuke wanted to show him something, he might as well see what it was.
As the genjutsu took effect, Jiraiya quickly fell into darkness, and then the image shifted. He saw himself being impaled by several black rods on a platform.
Seeing this scene, Jiraiya's expression became extremely grim.
'Did I really die? Judging from the geography of this place, it really does seem like Hidden Rain Village. Could this be Uchiha Ryosuke deliberately creating an illusion to mess with me?'
At this moment, he noticed six people in red cloud black cloaks with orange hair surrounding him.
They looked strange, expressionless. These bastards were probably the ones who killed him? When he saw the Rinnegan in those eyes, his pupils couldn't help but contract.
'Isn't that the Rinnegan? Aren't those eyes supposed to be with Nagato?'
This made him extremely anxious. Just what the hell was going on?
If earlier he had suspected Ryosuke was toying with him, now he was starting to believe it. After all, that was the Rinnegan. Back then, the reason he took in three disciples in Hidden Rain Village, was because Nagato had accidentally revealed the Rinnegan.
The Rinnegan is a legendary eye, and naturally, he was the child of prophecy. In his early years, while training on Mount Myoboku, the Great Toad Sage had made a prophecy. That in the future, he would meet the child of prophecy and become his guide. And the child of prophecy was the key to peace in the shinobi world.
That's why Jiraiya had stayed in the Land of Rain for a while. Now Jiraiya was completely confused.
'Just what happened in the Land of Rain?'
Suddenly, the image shifted again. Jiraiya returned to reality, immediately snapped back to consciousness. He hurriedly looked at Uchiha Ryosuke and asked seriously, "What you just showed me, was it fabricated, or is it something that will happen in the future?"
Ryosuke replied, "Of course it's real. Don't you think the image had the Rinnegan and people you're familiar with?"
Jiraiya was extremely shocked. Ryosuke actually knew about the secret of the Rinnegan.
"Since you know about the future, then surely you know what has happened in the Land of Rain, right?"
The matter of Nagato being the child of prophecy was of utmost importance. It concerned the future peace of the shinobi world.
Ryosuke, however, smiled and said, "You don't need to know that. Anyway, if you don't go to Hidden Rain Village, you probably won't die."
Jiraiya was speechless after hearing Ryosuke's words. 'Is this really just a matter of not dying?'
Nagato is the child of prophecy, the one who will bring change to the shinobi world. There's no way he can be allowed to have an accident.
And as the teacher of the shinobi world's reformer, he must guide him on the right path. He had always firmly believed he carried such a noble mission. This was his life's goal.
'Maybe something truly terrible has happened in Hidden Rain Village. I should go and see them myself.'
Ryosuke, seeing Jiraiya's serious expression, knew this guy wasn't the type to listen to advice. Knowing the information Ryosuke had leaked only strengthened his resolve to go.
Right now, Nagato should have already mastered the Rinnegan. If Jiraiya went rashly, he might really die. This was clearly not the outcome Ryosuke wanted to see.
Because his good intentions might end up accelerating Jiraiya's death. That would be truly troublesome. How should he persuade him?
He could only say, "Actually, the disciple you care about... is not the real child of prophecy."
Jiraiya found it hard to believe. 'This guy even knows about the child of prophecy? Could it be that Tsunade talked to him?'
That was something he had once told Tsunade. He felt a little bitter. 'So they really are lovers, sharing everything with each other.'
