Chapter 132

"Oh my, such a grand welcome for me? Being such a popular man can really be troublesome," Jiraiya said, showing no sign of seriousness.

"Jiraiya of the Hidden Leaf Village! Why have you suddenly come to the Sand Village? Are you trying to provoke a war?!" Maki shouted angrily, pointing at Jiraiya.

Not long ago, the Sand Village had gone to war with the Hidden Leaf, so their relations were anything but friendly.

"I'm here for one reason only: hand over the C-Virus that Orochimaru sold to you. It's not something good. I believe your intelligence should have told you that it can turn people into monsters."

Mentioning the C-Virus made Jiraiya's expression turn grim.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" Maki snapped, denying it firmly.

As one of the elite jonin of the Sand Village, how could he not know about the deal between their higher-ups and Orochimaru? He was also aware of the C-Virus—its ability to either create monsters or cause human evolution.

Whether it was true or not, he couldn't let someone from the Hidden Leaf cause chaos here!

"If you're so intent on making trouble, then die here!" Maki gave the order to the other jonin.

Immediately, the Sand Village jonin began launching various ninjutsu at Jiraiya.

"Sigh, I guess reasoning is out of the question. Don't blame me for being ruthless, then."

Jiraiya sighed in resignation. His eyes shifted into the Rinnegan.

"Shinra Tensei!"

As the ninjutsu closed in on Jiraiya, a powerful shockwave erupted from him, repelling all the attacks and sending them flying in every direction.

The shockwave didn't stop there; it continued to spread, threatening to engulf the ninjas below.

"Scatter!"

The ninjas panicked, scrambling to escape the massive shockwave, but many couldn't get away in time.

Boom!

Numerous ninjas were sent flying, and buildings and trees collapsed all around, creating a spectacular scene of destruction.

"What is this power? How is this possible?"

Maki stared in disbelief at the sky. In his eyes, Jiraiya appeared as a godlike figure—far beyond what human strength could ever hope to rival.

"I don't want to go too far. Hand over the C-Virus, and I'll spare you and help restore everything."

Jiraiya repeated his demand.

The surrounding ninjas exchanged bewildered glances. They knew little about the situation—the C-Virus was something the higher-ups were involved with. Discussing it with them was pointless.

Meanwhile, in the shadows, the Sand Village elders were trembling at the sight of Jiraiya's immense power. They had spent a considerable sum acquiring the C-Virus and hadn't even had the chance to use it yet. But now, could they really afford to just give it up?

But if they didn't hand it over, what would happen next?

"Who goes there?!"

A thunderous voice echoed.

Two elderly figures appeared below.

"The advisors!"

Maki cried out in excitement upon seeing the two elderly figures—Chiyo and Ebizo, the long-retired advisors of the Sand Village.

"Jiraiya!"

Chiyo immediately recognized Jiraiya, her pupils dilating in shock.

"Chiyo!"

Jiraiya also recognized her—she had caused quite a bit of trouble with her poisons back in the day.

"How has Jiraiya grown so powerful?!"

Chiyo looked at Jiraiya with a heavy heart.

She and her brother, Ebizo, had no desire to involve themselves in the affairs of the Sand Village anymore.

But the sheer terror of Jiraiya's Shinra Tensei had forced them out of hiding.

"What is this terrifying ninjutsu? How did one of the Legendary Sannin from the Hidden Leaf become this strong?"

Chiyo was drenched in sweat, overwhelmed by the situation. She prided herself on her strength, but in front of Jiraiya, she felt an unexpected urge to retreat.

"No matter what, you've invaded our Sand Village! You will pay a terrible price!"

Chiyo shouted angrily.

"Wait, hold on, I really didn't come here to start a war!" Jiraiya called out in frustration. It seemed he had no choice but to fight them into submission. Perhaps this was an opportunity to demonstrate his power and bring peace to the entire ninja world, just like Hashirama once did.

With that thought in mind, Jiraiya unleashed the full extent of his power as the Sage of the Six Paths.

Meanwhile, inside the Ikea store, Doraemon and Bruce Wayne had just realized they were meeting across universes.

"Hello, friend from another universe. I'm Doraemon!" Doraemon greeted politely.

Nobita and his friends also greeted Bruce Wayne, expressing their gratitude for his help.

"But wow, your armor is so cool!" Gian couldn't help but inspect Bruce Wayne's Knight Armor, admiring the metallic patterns and sleek design that appealed to any man.

"Ahem... Hello, Doraemon. I'm Bruce Wayne from the DC universe," Bruce replied, feeling uncharacteristically nervous.

The source of his tension was Doraemon's unimaginable technology. If they were to actually fight, there was a real possibility that he could lose.

"Leave this place immediately! The store is now closed!"

Before they could continue their conversation, a group of staff monsters appeared—tall, short, fat, and thin—stumbling toward them. Even without facial features, they exuded a terrifying presence.

"Ahh! The monsters are back!" Nobita screamed, grabbing hold of Doraemon.

"For now, let's just get out of here."

Doraemon reached into his pocket, pulling out the Shrink Ray just as the monsters lunged toward them.

"Shrink Ray!"

He aimed the device at the staff monsters, and in an instant, they shrunk to the size of insects and were blown away by the wind.

"What kind of technology is this?!"

Bruce's eyes widened in disbelief.

A simple-looking flashlight could shrink objects!

"This is the Shrink Ray. I can't really explain how it works, but let's just get out of here quickly!"

Doraemon replied, taking out some Stone Hats and Bamboo Copters, placing them on everyone's heads.

Together, they flew into the sky.

"This flying method feels... strange," Batman thought, as he experienced the combined effects of the Stone Hats and Bamboo Copters.

The technology was certainly unique. He wondered if he could replicate the anti-gravity feature of the Bamboo Copters.
