"Stop anyone who comes!"

Following a powerful sound, a figure flashed out. It was a tall samurai standing in the center of the corridor. He stretched out his hand and intercepted Jiraiya who was walking forward.

The samurai's aura is quite fierce. Judging from his flawless stance and the determination in his eyes, he is probably already calculating the angle from which to strike.

When Jiraiya saw the samurai blocking the road, he was also slightly stunned.

Although the country of ghosts is a very unique country, the only people with power, apart from ninjas, are shrine maidens. What is going on with this samurai blocking the road?

I have never heard that the Kingdom of Demons has trained samurai troops.

"Why are the samurai here?"

Jiraiya asked with a frown.

"This is the Kingdom of Iron, so of course samurai will be here."

The samurai answered meticulously.

"No, what I'm asking is, why do the warriors from the Iron Country mix with the people from the Ghost Country?"

After hearing Jiraiya's words, the samurai still replied coldly:

"My name is Satokaku, and in compliance with the order of General Mifune, I will protect the personal safety of the Minister of Military Affairs of the Kingdom of Demons during his stay in the Kingdom of Iron. Are you Jiraiya-dono, one of the Sannin of Konoha?

Please leave here, otherwise, you will be treated as an attacker and killed!"

"..."

Jiraiya was slightly annoyed.

He actually forgot that he and others entered the Iron Kingdom and did not report to the Iron Kingdom.

However, as an important minister of a country, Shiraishi is very thoughtful. Even if it is a private visit, he will probably report it to the Daming Prefecture of the country.

In this way, in order to ensure the safety of Shiraishi in the Iron Kingdom, the Iron Kingdom will naturally send samurai here to prevent Shiraishi from having any accidents in the Iron Kingdom and causing trouble to the Iron Kingdom.

By forcing his way in like this, Jiraiya knew without even thinking that he would directly arouse the hostility of the Iron Kingdom samurai and even be expelled from the Iron Kingdom.

The Iron Kingdom's military strength is second to none among the major powers.

Its general, Mifune, can be said to be one of the top sword masters in the ninja world today. He has killed dozens of ninjas with one sword, and his strength is extraordinary.

Therefore, it was impossible to just break in and talk to Shiraishi.

If the three-fleet admiral were to be lured here, things would be quite difficult.

"Then, could you please tell me that I have something to come to visit?"

Since trying hard was not possible, Jiraiya decided to take the formal path.

Samurai Rikkaku thought for a moment and replied:

"Okay, Sir Jiraiya, please wait here."

The samurai Satokaku agreed to Jiraiya's request and was about to walk inside to ask Shiraishi for instructions.

However, just as he turned around, a figure came towards him.

She is a miko who is about seventeen or eighteen years old. She has long black hair, an indifferent face, and her whole body is full of inhumanity.

"No need, Mr. Shiraishi is taking a rest and will not see any guests now."

The miko walked up to the samurai Urakaku and said to him coldly.

The samurai Rikkaku didn't know whether it was true or not, but since the miko said so, she came with Shiraishi's order, so she immediately turned around and said to Jiraiya:

"Your Excellency Jiraiya must have heard it, so please come back now."

His job is to monitor and protect the safety of Shiraishi within the Kingdom of Iron, and to prevent unsighted people from disturbing him and causing diplomatic conflicts between the Kingdom of Iron and the Kingdom of Ghosts.

Therefore, under a clear order, even the title of Sannin cannot shake his belief.

"Is it really not possible? I really have something important to discuss with your leader."

Jilai took a step forward unwillingly.

Seeing Jiraiya's movements, the samurai Rikkaku pulled out the katana in his hand with a clang, and the blade shone with a cold light.

Jiraiya has already entered a dangerous restricted area. If the opponent suddenly attacks, he may not be able to react at that time, so he must draw out his katana immediately to prevent the opponent from sneak attack.

However, Jiraiya did not pay attention to the samurai Satokaku, but instead fixed his gaze firmly on the young miko.

The miko didn't respond. Like the samurai Rikkaku, she stared at Jiraiya's whole body with vigilant eyes to prevent him from making a surprise attack.

Jiraiya saw this and let out a cry.

Although it is not difficult for him to defeat the samurai and wandering witches, doing so will inevitably lead to the crime of attacking the Minister of Military Affairs of the Kingdom of Demons.

At that time, it will not only be himself who will be in trouble, but Konoha and the Kingdom of Fire. At the same time, in order to give an explanation to the Kingdom of Demons, the Kingdom of Iron will inevitably join the Kingdom of Demons and stand in the same camp.

Therefore, even though he was very angry and helpless, Jiraiya still forced himself to calm down and finally left unwillingly.

…

"Master Shiraishi, Jiraiya has left."

After Jiraiya left, the miko immediately turned back and came to the room to report to Shiraishi.

After hearing the news, Shiraishi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Have you finally left? He is really a troublesome guy."

The miko tilted her head in confusion.

"Trouble? I think with Shiraishi-sama's strength, you don't need to be afraid of the so-called Sannin."

Although the Sannin of Konoha are very famous and possess considerable strength, with the current power of the Demon Country, they will not have any fear of the Sannin.

What's more, Jiraiya was once a prisoner of the Demon Kingdom, so he would not have any fear.

"Well, to a certain extent, he is indeed a difficult guy. Especially since he is incompetent, even I can't deal with his type of person at all."

Shiraishi smiled helplessly.

Should I say that I am stubborn in my opinion, or that I am clinging to a futile prophecy?

In short, if it were a real battle, he was confident that he could defeat Jiraiya again without any burden.

But if the battle is just about words, it will probably be a half-baked contest, and in the end no one will be able to do anything to win over the other.

In a sense, Jiraiya is also a person who sticks to his own path.

Firmly follow the path of the savior to save the world.

Different road non-phase plan.

A person like Jiraiya, no matter how many times he says it, will never agree with his own ideas.

Then, continuing to talk to him is a meaningless waste of time.

Since it is a waste of time, there is no need to argue with Jiraiya anymore.

If you want to make someone like Jiraiya succumb to your own ideas, you can only make him disappear from this world and let him go to another world with his own beliefs...

Apart from this, Shiraishi can't find any other solution.

"...By the way, are you the one who the lustful immortal said you want to become the Fifth Hokage?"

At the dinner table, Naruto finally worked up the courage to ask this question.

Maybe it was because the aura given to him by Tsunade was too strong, or maybe he was shocked by the aura on Tsunade's chest. He didn't speak slowly until Jiraiya left.

"The Fifth Hokage? I haven't agreed to that kind of thing yet. Don't talk nonsense, kid."

Tsunade snorted.

"Why? Don't you want to become Hokage?"

Naruto asked in confusion.

"It's not easy to sit in a position like that of Hokage. Even if you sit in it, it's full of helplessness and compromise. It's better to be free and easy now."

Tsunade said her own opinion.

"how come?"

"Then what about you, why do you care about this kind of thing? You should be just a genin in the village now. No matter how you look at it, this has nothing to do with you."

Konoha's Hokage election system, the most important thing is jounin voting.

As long as you can get enough Jonin votes, even if you lose the popular vote, there is a high probability of turning defeat into victory.

Therefore, genin like Naruto are not qualified to participate. The change of Hokage has nothing to do with genin.

"That's because my goal is to become Hokage!"

When Naruto said this firmly, Tsunade and Shizune both looked slightly sideways and gave Naruto a surprised look.

Immediately, Tsunade burst out laughing, as if she had heard some extremely funny joke.

"Tsunade-sama!"

Shizune kept a straight face.
