Jiraiya, already standing atop Gamabunta's head, said with a grave expression after hearing Gamabunta's words, "Gamabunta, you need to be mentally prepared. This opponent will definitely surprise you!"
Gamabunta was taken aback upon hearing this.
Just then, the smoke generated by the summoning disappeared, and Gamabunta could see Minato Namikaze not far away.
This caused Gamabunta's face to show disbelief, and he said incredulously, "Jiraiya, are my eyes okay? I can actually see Minato, who is already dead?"
Regardless of their current relationship, as former partners who had made a pact, Minato Namikaze still showed a familiar smile and said to Gamabunta, "Gamabunta, it's been a long time."
Upon hearing this, Gamabunta's expression suddenly changed, and he muttered to himself, "It really is Minato? But how could Minato be?"
Immediately, Gamabunta couldn't help but ask, "Hey, hey, hey, Jiraiya, you bastard, explain yourself! Our opponent this time isn't Minato, is it?"
Without giving Jiraiya a chance to reply, Gamabunta continued, "If it were Minato, I wouldn't make a move."
"Because Minato also made a summoning contract with me, he is my partner, and I would never attack my partner."
Jiraiya remained solemn and said, "Gamabunta, look closely. He is no longer the Minato we know."
Upon hearing this, Gamabunta couldn't help but look closely at Minato Namikaze.
Upon looking at him, Gamabunta noticed Minato Namikaze's extremely abnormal black eyes and the cracks on his face, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.
Jiraiya knew that Gamabunta had noticed Minato's abnormality, so he said, "He has been temporarily resurrected in the human world by the forbidden technique - Impure World Reincarnation, and his actions are controlled by the caster."
"What we need to do now is not to harm our former comrade, but to let his soul rest in peace."
Jiraiya's explanation made Gamabunta understand the current situation, and he unconsciously gripped the toad dagger tucked at his waist, saying, "I see, then I really have no choice but to take action."
As he spoke, Gamabunta couldn't help but continue, "But Jiraiya, didn't you summon the wrong toad?"
"Don't you know that Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique is naturally a counter to my size?"
Jiraiya replied immediately, "I know, that's why I didn't expect you to defeat Minato. I just wanted you to hold him off so I would have enough time to enter Sage Mode!"
"Once I enter Sage Mode, I can summon Fukasaku and Shima, and use their abilities to subdue Minato."
This time, before Gamabunta could reply, Minato Namikaze appeared instantly, saying, "Master, just as you understand me, I understand you too."
"So I won't give you time to enter Sage Mode!"
"Spiral Flash Super Wheel Dance Roar Three Styles!!"

Chapter 598 A New Member, Uchiha Itachi!
The battle between Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya has officially begun.
Because the master and apprentice know each other very well, this battle is destined to be extremely fierce, and it is also destined that the outcome cannot be determined in a short time.
Naturally, the commotion of this battle will certainly exceed the expectations of Shimura Danzo, who was behind the Uchiha clan massacre, and will inevitably attract attention.
At that time, Danzo Shimura will probably have a big headache.
And this is exactly the outcome Chen Anxia wanted.
Chen Anxia's intention was to attract more people by using the commotion caused by the battle between Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya.
At that time, it will be the time for the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.
As for the battle between Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya, Chen Anxia was not interested.
Because Chen Anxia could see through the Root Eye the data streams of both Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya.
This means that Chen Anxia has also mastered the abilities of Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya, including the Flying Thunder God Technique and Sage Mode.
It can be said that Chen Anxia's current foundation has surpassed that of Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya.
Under these circumstances, and with equal chakra levels, Chen Anxia was 100% confident that he could defeat Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya.
Even Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya can summon summoned beasts to help them.
Therefore, Chen Anxia was naturally not interested in their battle.
Unlike Chen Anxia, Kushina Uzumaki was very concerned about the battle, and her gaze never left the two sides fighting.
From the expression on Kushina Uzumaki's face, Chen Anxia could see her helplessness and sorrow.
Clearly, Kushina Uzumaki did not want to see the final battle between master and disciple before her.
After all, apart from Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya, no one understood the bond between master and disciple better than Kushina Uzumaki.
Chen Anxia didn't care about this. She looked at Uchiha Itachi beside her and asked with interest, "My Shadow Imitation Technique has already been deactivated. Why don't you leave? Why don't you attack me?"
Uchiha Itachi did not answer Chen Anxia's question, but instead asked, "Did you return this time to destroy Konoha Village?"
From Itachi Uchiha's question, Chen Anxia already knew that Itachi had guessed his identity.
Chen Anxia was not surprised by this.
Although Chen Anxia disliked Itachi Uchiha, he had to admit Itachi's insight and reasoning abilities.
Therefore, upon hearing Itachi Uchiha's question, Chen Anxia gently shook his head and replied, "I never intended to destroy Konoha."
"However, Konoha is indeed part of my plan."
Upon hearing this, Itachi Uchiha frowned slightly, unable to understand Chen Anxia's words.
Amid Itachi's confusion, Chen Anxia continued, "Just as I said, Konoha is rotten, and I will use my blood to completely cleanse Konoha of its decay."
"But it's not just Konoha that's truly decaying; other ninja villages, and even the world itself, are already decaying."
"And the root of this decay is the ninjas, and the repeated Ninja World Wars."
"Human history tells us that excessive power often fosters ambition and desire, thus becoming a rotten termite."
"That's what ninjas are all about."
"Therefore, I will begin with Konoha and launch a great purge of this world, thereby creating a new world without ninjas."
Chen Anxia's crazy remarks shocked even Itachi Uchiha, who trembled with shock.
In Itachi Uchiha's view, creating a completely new world without ninjas was simply impossible.
Not only Itachi Uchiha, but Kushina Uzumaki, after hearing Chen Anxia's words, also disregarded the battle between Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya and couldn't help but look at Chen Anxia with a trembling, fearful and incredulous expression.
Although Kushina Uzumaki knew that Chen Anxia was going to create a new world.
Kushina Uzumaki thought that Chen Anxia only wanted to eliminate the decay of the world, just like eliminating the rotten roots of Konoha. She never expected that Chen Anxia actually wanted to make the existence of ninjas disappear completely.
Like Itachi Uchiha, this was something that Kushina Uzumaki considered impossible.
Unless Chen Anxia can create a blank history to completely cover up the existence of ninjas.
However, to create such a blank period in history, it is necessary to...
Kushina Uzumaki, unable to even imagine such a scene, forced herself to remain calm while asking with a mixture of fear and trembling, "Anxia, may I ask, how do you intend to create a new world without ninjas?"
Itachi Uchiha also wanted to know the answer to this question, and his trembling gaze fixed intently on Chen Anxia.
Chen Anxia knew what Itachi Uchiha and Kushina Uzumaki were thinking, but he didn't take it to heart and said directly, "The reason why ninjas exist is because of the existence of chakra, a kind of energy."
"Therefore, all we need to do is make chakra disappear from this world completely."
Chen Anxia's answer left Itachi Uchiha and Kushina Uzumaki even more puzzled.
At this point, Itachi Uchiha couldn't help but frown and ask, "Chakra is an energy that every human being is born with. How can it be allowed to completely disappear from this world?"
Chen Anxia did not give the real answer to this.
Because the matter of the Eye of Origin is too complex to explain and is beyond the comprehension of people in this world, it is difficult to convince people without witnessing it firsthand.
Therefore, Chen Anxia told a lie, saying, "Chakra is not an energy that humans are born with, but rather originates from the Divine Tree."
A divine tree!?
Both Itachi Uchiha and Kushina Uzumaki seemed somewhat bewildered by the name, clearly having never heard of it before.
Seeing this, Chen Anxia didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "The Divine Tree also has another name, called Ten-Tailed."
Upon hearing this, Itachi Uchiha and Kushina Uzumaki were startled, clearly aware of the Ten-Tails' name.
At the same time, they all 'knew' Chen Anxia's plan.
Since the Ten-Tails is the origin of chakra, if the Ten-Tails is completely destroyed, can chakra be completely eliminated from this world?
They didn't know the answer, but the method was worth a try.
Seeing that Itachi Uchiha had accepted his statement, Chen Anxia couldn't help but ask, "So, Itachi Uchiha, how about joining us and creating a wonderful new world without ninjas?"
Upon hearing this, Itachi Uchiha did not immediately agree, but instead looked at Sasuke Uchiha.
After learning that Konoha was corrupt, Itachi Uchiha no longer trusted Konoha.
Of course, Itachi Uchiha also did not trust Chen Anxia.
However, compared to Konoha, Itachi Uchiha was more willing to believe Chen Anxia.
After making his decision, Itachi Uchiha said, "I can join you, but in exchange, you must help me take good care of my younger brother."
Seeing this, Chen Anxia smiled and said, "Of course, no problem."
In her heart, Chen Anxia silently added, 'Because your younger brother was someone I had my eye on from the start.'
As he spoke, Chen Anxia continued, "In the near future, an organization with the goal of reviving the Ten-Tails will approach you. Its name is 'Akatsuki,' and I need you to act as my inside man."
......
Chapter 599 Jonin Gather, Storm is Brewing!
Chen Anxia's words startled Itachi Uchiha.
Itachi Uchiha was aware of the Akatsuki organization, which Chen Anxia mentioned, whose goal was to revive the Ten-Tails.
The Konoha leadership gave Itachi Uchiha two tasks: one was to exterminate the Uchiha clan, and the other was to find a way to join the Akatsuki organization and act as an inside agent to monitor the Akatsuki.
Uchiha Itachi had no idea that the mission Chen Anxia had given him was also related to the Akatsuki organization.
Meanwhile, Itachi Uchiha did not expect that Chen Anxia would know the Akatsuki's purpose.
Itachi Uchiha didn't know where Chen Anxia got this information from, but he knew that Chen Anxia wouldn't lie about this.
Besides that, what truly puzzled Itachi Uchiha was Chen Anxia's extremely certain tone.
