Chapter 39 - INAZ: Chapter 38---

Without a source of intelligence, how could I possibly open an All-Purpose Shop here?" Shinji said with a smile.

"Regarding this matter, among those who know, you must be among the very first," Jiraiya raised his teacup and looked at Shinji, his eyes already filled with apprehension. This level of intelligence source was simply too powerful.

"That, I wouldn't know. But... Lord Jiraiya, where do you plan to travel next?" Shinji chuckled lightly. Believing this news was too significant, Jiraiya mainly needed to return and report to Hiruzen Sarutobi, then continue his journey.

"Haven't decided yet. But... Amegakure? I'm somewhat interested in going there," Jiraiya seemed to have reverted to his Gallant persona, laughing heartily.

"The Akatsuki organization... If Lord Jiraiya goes alone, something might happen," Shinji looked at the tattoo near Jiraiya's eye corner. Previously, Jiraiya died precisely because he went alone to the Land of Rain to investigate Pain's information.

"What? Boss Shinji doesn't believe in my strength? I am one of the Sannin of Konoha..." Jiraiya's words suddenly stopped short. Yes, he was one of the Sannin of Konoha, but how did this title come about? Wasn't it bestowed by Hanzō of the Salamander, the demigod of Amegakure? Yet, even someone as strong as Hanzō couldn't defeat Akatsuki. This? Seemed like?

"Moreover, the members of this Akatsuki organization are acquaintances of Lord Jiraiya," Shinji swirled the tea in his cup, looking at the full moon outside the window.

"Acquaintances? My acquaintances? Who?" Jiraiya suddenly became surprised. Members of Akatsuki were actually his acquaintances? This? Who exactly?

"Lord Jiraiya, aren't you going to see Naruto?" Shinji directly changed the subject. He had already laid the groundwork; whatever decision Jiraiya made, Shinji wouldn't interfere further.

"Naruto?" Jiraiya calmed down. Shinji's behavior clearly indicated he didn't intend to tell him certain truths.

"Yes, Naruto. Minato Namikaze and Kushina's son, the new Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails. Does Lord Jiraiya really not plan to go see him?" Shinji recalled the place Naruto lived before. The large nursery, due to Naruto's presence, had been deemed unsuitable for approach by the Konoha villagers. For a time, due to Naruto's arrival, the nursery owner was practically on the verge of bankruptcy.

If it weren't for some subsidies from Hiruzen Sarutobi, the nursery owner might have gone bankrupt directly. Therefore, due to this situation, the treatment Naruto received from the nursery owner and staff was predictable. Eating adulterated food, drinking expired milk.

Although the current Naruto was only a few months old, he received no sympathy from the Konoha villagers. Instead, the nursery's name was mockingly dubbed by the villagers: Konoha Demon Fox Re
