How could Tsunade not hear the hidden meaning contained in what Jiraiya said?
However, if it is true as guessed, it can only mean that the situation is worse than they expected.
"It's really bad news all the time."
Tsunade rubbed her temples and said helplessly.
"This war was unavoidable from the beginning, but the current situation is somewhat unfavorable to Konoha."
Jiraiya spoke softly, with a hint of comfort in his voice.
Ever since Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Madara and Right To were resurrected one after another, many people in the ninja world may have anticipated that there would be a war.
Even in some respects, this war is coming later than some people expected.
When Jiraiya said this, his voice paused slightly, there was a tangled look in his eyes, and he hesitated for a moment.
"What's wrong? Is there any other bad news? It would be nice if you tell me some."
Tsunade noticed Jiraiya's strangeness immediately, shook her head, and said with a slight smile.
There are already a lot of bad things happening now, so there is no need for one more.
"To be precise, this is not bad news."
When Jiraiya saw Tsunade realize it, he scratched his hair and laughed a few times.
"I met Orochimaru on the way back." Naturally, he stopped laughing and raised his head to look at Tsunade, with a hint of questioning in his eyes.
Orochimaru?
Upon hearing this name, Tsunade was stunned for a moment, then slightly frowned.
Now, Tsunade can roughly guess what Jiraiya is thinking at this moment without even looking at Jiraiya's expression.
"What did Orochimaru say?" Tsunade looked at Jiraiya expressionlessly and said calmly.
"Orochimaru, he wants to return to Konoha."
Jiraiya smiled softly, his voice obviously two tones lower than before.
boom!
Tsunade slammed the table, her big eyes looked like Jiraiya's, and she said very firmly: "Impossible!"
What Orochimaru did before can't be forgiven just by saying "forgive"!
Faced with such a fierce reaction from the master, Jiraiya's eyes twitched slightly, but there was no surprise.
It seems that this matter needs to be discussed in more detail.
Jiraiya knew that Tsunade was angry now, so he didn't intend to irritate her anymore. After Tsunade calmed down, he could calm down and talk about this matter.
Konoha's current situation is somewhat unfavorable.
If it had been before, Jiraiya would not have easily forgiven Orochimaru, but now that Orochimaru has returned, the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages for Konoha!
What's more, Orochimaru's subordinates are all very powerful. Joining Konoha at this time can have a certain impact on the battle situation.

the other side.
Kirigakure and Iwagakure also secretly contacted each other in the process of preparing military supplies.
Of course, this kind of contact is just to confirm each other's time to attack Konoha.
At the same time, that guy Uchiha Madara is not without demands.
According to Uchiha Madara's wishes, he and Senju Hashirama would have a decisive battle, and in this battle, the right hand was not allowed to intervene.
Faced with Uchiha Madara's request, Uto was a little regretful that he could not have another final fight with Senju Hashirama, but he did not object.
Since someone is willing to help deal with the most difficult guy, You Dou is naturally happy to see it happen.
But from this point of view.
Madara Uchiha seemed to be very confident in himself, which actually made Righto feel a little cautious.
In the blink of an eye.
A week or so passed!
Before any war begins, it is not to be carried out rashly, but to make various preparations before war.
During this period, Kirigakure Village was in the process of mobilizing all people, ninjas, and supplies.
Kirigakure village harbor coast.
The three large ships set sail first, leaving the port and sailing towards the sea.
There were more than fifty ninjas on each boat, and a murderous atmosphere spread from the boat.
On the bow of the big ship at the front, Mochi Zabuza was carrying a beheading sword on his back, his eyes exuding coldness and excitement as he stared at the sea level in the distance.
"It's finally starting!"
Momochi Zabuza let out a deep laugh.
The first person sent out by Kirigakure Village was Momochi Zabuza, one of the Seven Swordsmen, and all the ninjas in these three ships were led by Momochi Zabuza.
tread--
tread--
The sound of light footsteps came from behind Momochi Zabuza.
Without looking back, Momochi Zabuza knew who it was. At this time, the only one who dared to appear in front of him was Shiro.
Shiro was now wearing a black combat uniform and a Chuunin mail armor on his upper body. His original weak character was somewhat weakened by this outfit, but he exuded a heroic spirit.
"Momochi Zabuza-sama, our mission is only to control the country of Waves so that we can meet the troops from Kirigakure Village next."
"So under such circumstances, it is better not to have a conflict with Konoha."
Shiro walked up to Mochi Zabuza and spoke softly.
He knew the character of Lord Momochi Zabuza too well. If he met people from Konoha, they would probably fight directly, but this would not be conducive to their mission at all.
So Shiro could only remind Zabuza-sama Momochi first.
"It's true, Rory."
Momochi Zabuza glanced at Shiro and waved his hand impatiently.
A gentle smile appeared on Shiro's face. Mochi Zabuza-sama, although he didn't say anything, he had already listened to what he just said.
There are two routes for the Kirigakure Village to attack Konoha.
The first one is to enter the territory of the Kingdom of Waves directly through the sea after leaving the Kingdom of Water, because the Kingdom of Waves has already built a bridge.
Therefore, the Country of Waves is a very important strategic location, which is of great benefit to Kirigakure Village in attacking Konoha.
Of course, Konoha also knows this, and I am afraid that there will be considerable obstacles at the border between the Land of Waves and the Land of Fire.
The other route is the route used by Kirigakure Village to attack Konoha.
The same is true of going to sea first and entering the country of bears!
Then use the Kingdom of Bears as the center to attack the border of the Kingdom of Fire, but this route is two full times longer than the attack route of the Kingdom of Waves.
Of course, this route also has certain advantages, that is, it is relatively stable and safe.
Currently, the method used by Kirigakure Village is to advance in two lines. As for which one is the main attack route and which one is the secondary attack route, there is no clear decision.
This mainly depends on which route can be the first to break through the Fire Nation's defense on the next battlefield.
This is a real war!
The situation was completely different from when Uto was just resurrected, when he only led a small force from Kirigakure Village to attack Konoha.
