Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly, and then slowly relaxed his brows. It looked like he nodded in agreement, but in fact it was obvious that he didn't really listen.
"Old man!"
More than twenty years of mentoring and apprenticeship.
Sarutobi Hiruzen knew Jiraiya very well, but Jiraiya also knew Sarutobi Hiruzen very well.
He is familiar with his teacher's character.
At this moment, his eyes were fixed and he was about to continue saying something.
"Okay, Jiraiya, I know what happened to Danzo. The most important thing now is the Uchiha clan and Orochimaru. I'll leave the latter to you. The top priority is to investigate Orochimaru."
Where is the intention and destination? The sooner we resolve it, the better!”
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, blocking Jiraiya's words. Looking at the expression of his Hokage teacher, especially the look of determination in his eyes, Jiraiya couldn't help but
He sighed, and then swallowed the words that came to his mouth again. It must be said that Jiraiya also felt that the older his teacher got, the more he lost his former grace. Originally, being mature and prudent was a compliment.
word.
It is a good attitude towards doing things.
But excessive caution is synonymous with conservatism and stubbornness.
Jiraiya knew what his teacher was worried about, but in Jiraiya's opinion, the more worried he was, the less he should do it. If he continued to indulge Danzo, it would only lead to more serious consequences. However, his teacher's intentions were obviously different.
Jue, and Jiraiya himself is not the kind of person who talks too much.
"I see."
At this moment, all I can do is respond with a silent nod.
"Whoosh!"
It's just a vertical posture.
He left the Hokage's office building directly and went to fulfill his 'responsibilities'.
After all, Jiraiya is one of the few naive idealists in Konoha Hidden Village, which is why he was able to teach disciples like Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan in the first place, if Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu didn't play tricks behind the scenes.
, the three of them can really grow into what Jiraiya expected.
This is Jiraiya's style and also Jiraiya's charm.
It is also Jiraiya's limitation, because this ninja world is a cruel and dark world. It is often impossible for idealists to reach their end and realize their goals. In the original work, Jiraiya's life can be said to be magnificent.
But it’s really hard to call it a success, because the people you love, the ideals you pursue, the people you respect, and the people you care about rarely have a happy ending!
Even he himself died at the hands of the disciple who once valued and respected him the most. It has to be said that the life of this Konoha hero was full of all kinds of regrets.
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the departing figure of his disciple, with a complicated look in his turbid pupils, and sighed quietly. As a Hokage and a master, how could he not see through the hidden power of his disciple?
Feeling of dissatisfaction.
But the Third Hokage still feels that his decision is the best way to meet the current interests of Konoha. Konoha needs stability, Konoha needs time, and Konoha is maintaining the 'Will of Fire' created.
When it comes to warming up the big family, Danzo's cold and dark side is even more needed.
Only in this way can Konoha move steadily in the right direction. This is the strategy that Sarutobi Hiruzen set when he took the throne, and he has implemented it for thirty years.
It is absolutely impossible for me to change this.
Because redefining the order and changing the status quo means denying the correctness of the past. This is something Hiruzen Sarutobi would never do, and it is also the most stupid and failed part of this third-generation Hokage.
It's just that he never felt that way.
"Jiraiya, one day you will understand my painstaking efforts."
After Hiruzen Sarutobi murmured in a low voice, he returned to immersing himself in dealing with the complicated government affairs on the table. In these troubled times, internal matters and external matters, as the Hokage, he needs to pay attention to so many points that he cannot focus on a single one.
Spending too much time on things.
The ups and downs of the ninja world.
The atmosphere became tense and subtle.
When the Uchiha clan chose to join the Iwagakure Village, an extremely dangerous atmosphere filled the ninja world.
Subconsciously strengthen border security.
When seeing the movements of each of the five major countries, the ninja villages of the small countries who were worried about another war breaking out also had to strengthen their own defenses.
The past three ninja wars have brought bloody lessons to these small countries!
But these have nothing to do with Uchiha or even Iwagakure, at least they are not willing to pay attention to them.
Ohnoki just wants his ninja village to safely accept the Uchiha clan back to the village. We will talk about the future later. After integrating the most powerful clan in the ninja world, the strength of their Iwagakure village will definitely double. By that time, the people who were once dominated by them will
The enviable courage and confidence of Konoha's one against two or even one against three will be reproduced in their Iwagakure village.
The same is true for the Uchiha clan.
Not just the high-level generals, Fugaku, Shisui and others.
The young and middle-aged Uchiha people in the middle and lower classes also hope that the clan can be stabilized as soon as possible. Only when their relatives, who are ordinary members of the clan, can obtain a peaceful land to live, can they do what they want to do without any scruples.
The matter——Revenge against Konoha!
It can be said that they have a high level of tacit understanding with each other on this matter.
Of course, this does not mean that there are no voices of dissent.
The Uchiha clan entered Iwagakure.
This is the arbitrary behavior of Ohnoki, a Tsuchikage.
Although like Sarutobi Hiruzen, Ōnoki, as the Kage who has ruled Iwagakure for more than 30 years, has the highest prestige and power in the village, it does not mean that the people below him will not raise any different opinions.
Especially when the Uchiha clan joins the family.
I didn't react before.
Moreover, it will take some time to react, digest, and discuss with each other. The arrival of such a large clan will definitely reorganize the village structure. This is a scene that the ninja clan of Iwagakure Village do not want to see.
Even if you know that the probability of success of your objection is very low.
But these people still need to negotiate clearly.
He immediately went to meet Onoki, who was a Tsuchikage.
At this point in time, all members of the Uchiha clan had entered the Earth Kingdom, and were only halfway to the Iwagakure Village.
"Sandaime-sama, please consider it carefully. It may not be a good thing for the Uchiha clan to join our village. Their clan is the ninja clan that once established Konoha. Now they are turning their backs on Konoha. There must be something profound in it.
The problem, if we don’t understand this, it can easily become a time bomb for our Iwagakure Village!”
