"Why at this time …"
Minato thought about it again. Why was it that after searching for more than a year, there wasn't any news about Sasori?
There was only a month left before Shinna Kushina's due date, and Jiraiya -sensei suddenly received information about that guy's whereabouts.
This didn't seem to be a coincidence …
Deep in his blue eyes, there was a sudden chill.
Since the guy in the dark could plot against him time and time again, how could he not take advantage of Sasori's hatred for him and deliberately leak his whereabouts?
With Sasori's strength, to hunt him down, Wood Leaf was bound to send a considerable number of people.
And the target was the farthest away, and the one with the most tense relationship with Wood Leaf, the Land of Lightning.
If it didn't go well, the hunt for Sasori might not be completed even after a few months.
This method, was it to lure the tiger away from the mountain, weaken Wood Leaf's strength, and then attack on the day of Shinna Kushina's due date?
This plan, if Watergate didn't know that someone would attack on the night of Shinna Kushina's due date, he might have fallen into the other party's trap.
So, from this matter, there was an 80% chance that the other party already knew about Shinna Kushina's pregnancy, and even the specific time of delivery …
Obviously, the information was sealed so tightly … How did the other party know!?
Watergate immediately thought of Danzo, but not to mention that guy's extreme style of doing things, his purpose was for the village, and he had always ordered the Anbu to keep an eye on [Root].
Danzo didn't have the chance to leak this information.
If it was someone else, it would be even more impossible.
"Sensei, about this matter, I'm afraid I have to discuss with Sandaime Naruto to make a decision."
Watergate said, there were some things that even Jiraiya didn't know.
Jiraiya nodded, he also knew the difficulty of this matter, so he didn't think too much about it.
"By the way, Teacher, why don't you come to my house tonight?"
Watergate's tense expression gradually relaxed. He smiled and said, "The child in Shinna Kushina's belly … will be born in a month or so."
Although this matter was top secret, Jiraiya had the right to know because of his position in Wood Leaf.
And Minato told him about this matter with another layer of consideration, that is, to keep Sensei in Konoha to deal with the unexpected situation that may happen more than a month later.
"Shinna Kushina is pregnant?"
Jiraiya was startled for a moment. Then, his face lit up with joy. "Little guy, that means you're going to be a father soon."
"Yes."
Watergate nodded. For him, Jiraiya -sensei wasn't just a teacher who taught him the way of the ninja.
In his heart, he had long treated his teacher as his family.
Jiraiya, of course, also had the same mood. His face was full of joy.
"Shinna Kushina's pregnancy is the top secret of the village, so Sensei must not disclose it to others."
Although Sensei must know the pros and cons of this, Watergate still reminded him out of caution.
Jiraiya nodded. Shinna Kushina is the Jinchuriki of Nine Tails, and he also knows a little about what will happen when a Jinchuriki gives birth.
"You wait here for a moment, after I'm done with the affairs at hand, we'll go home together." Watergate said.
"Who is Shinna Kushina's guard duty?" Jiraiya nodded and asked again.
Watergate immediately replied, "Uchiha Yan."
"It's him …"
Jiraiya didn't have such an intense reaction when he heard this, because he also recognized Yan during the Third Shinobi World War.
He has the Mangekyou Sharingan, can prevent the Nine Tails from going berserk, and is trustworthy.
He is the most suitable person to take on this task.
"Yes."
Watergate nodded and then began to deal with the rest of the affairs at hand.
After finishing, Watergate and Jiraiya left Naruto's office, but they didn't immediately return home. Instead, they went to the street of Wood Leaf to pick some fresh ingredients.
This couldn't help but make Jiraiya a little surprised.
After all, Watergate is now Naruto.
But thinking about his personality, Jiraiya didn't find it difficult to understand.
The name of Naruto, in the eyes of outsiders, may represent the highest power of a ninja village. As a person of Naruto, he stands at the top of all ninjas.
However, the real Naruto doesn't only know how to give orders, but also walks in front of everyone and bears heavy responsibilities.
Naruto is Watergate's childhood dream, but he wants to be Naruto in order to protect the people he cherishes and the village he was born in.
...
After selecting the ingredients, the two returned home.
At this time, Shinna Kushina was already more than eight months pregnant, and it was slightly inconvenient for her to move around.
Watergate began to busy himself in the kitchen, preparing lunch for the three of them.
Jiraiya and Shinna Kushina chatted in the living room, the former told the latter about his travels.
Shinna Kushina listened attentively, because since she was pregnant, she couldn't contact the outside world, so she was very bored.
It was time to eat.
"Speaking of which, sensei, how's your novel?" Watergate asked at the dining table.
Jiraiya couldn't help but have a wry smile on his face, and said, "During the trip, I once published it in a small town, but it didn't sell at all …"
"You can choose to publish it in Wood Leaf."
Watergate said, the outside world can't be compared with Wood Leaf.
Jiraiya -sensei seemed to be a little depressed because of the previous incident.
"Sensei, I haven't finished reading your novel yet, can you show it to me later?" Watergate said with anticipation.
"Of course." Jiraiya nodded.
After eating, Jiraiya continued to tell Shinna Kushina about his travels, and the latter listened with interest.
Watergate continued to read "The Legend of Ninja Perseverance."
Unknowingly, it was already nine o 'clock in the evening.
When Watergate finished reading the last page of the book, although he had read it before, he couldn't help but admire it, and said, "The protagonist of this novel is so handsome, he never gives up until the end!"
"Such a wonderful novel will definitely have a big market."
Watergate said firmly, and Jiraiya, who was beside him, heard this, smiled and scratched his head, and said, "So far, only you think so, little guy."
"Sensei, I don't mean to flatter you, it's really great!"
At this time, Watergate held the novel in his hand, and then said to Jiraiya, "Sensei, there is one thing I want to ask for your permission."
"I want to use the name of the protagonist in your novel as the name of my soon-to-be-born child!"
