Chapter 346 Master and Disciple

Like the Sand Ninja Village, the Kiri Ninja Village is facing many difficulties. After the truce treaty was signed, the battle between the various Ninja Villages shifted from a frontal war to a development aspect.

Clearly understand that in this ninja world, there will always be another war. Before that, the purpose of developing and growing is to usher in good results.

For the sake of profit, temporarily putting aside the hatred against Yu Ninja, Mist Ninja Village needs to let the new Mizukage take office as soon as possible, and then negotiate with the daimyo of the country of water to allocate funds, and let Mist Ninja Village develop as soon as possible.

Konoha Village.

Tsunade and Jiraiya also met in a tavern.

The tavern was very deserted at this time, with only the two of them sitting in the corner.

There were two bottles of wine on the table, and a bottle with more than half of the wine left on it stood. The exquisite and small white porcelain wine glasses were filled with wine and placed in front of Tsunade and Jiraiya.

Tsunade's face was flushed, she had probably drank a lot, and her whole body was exuding a slightly smoky smell of alcohol, which showed that the alcohol content she was drinking was not low.

She rested her hands on the table and stared blankly at the wine in the glass. A charming and mature face reflected in the clear liquid.

Jiraiya picked up the white porcelain cup, drank it silently, then refilled it for himself, then raised his head and looked at Tsunade.

"You are a master who always thinks about his disciples, isn't he?" Jiraiya suddenly said.

Tsunade looked stunned, fiddled with the wine glass, and said with a wry smile: "Are you trying to teach me a lesson?"

"No..." Jiraiya sighed softly and said, "I am trying to persuade you, but I also understand that no matter how much I say to you, it will be useless."

Having said this, Jiraiya sighed: "You are just like Orochimaru, once you make a decision, others cannot interfere at all."

"Jiraiya, I am different from Orochimaru, don't confuse me with him." Tsunade said solemnly.

Jiraiya smiled awkwardly, and then said seriously: "How about waiting a little longer?"

Tsunade shook her head.

Jiraiya said: "Tsunade, just wait until I fulfill my responsibilities as a master. Maybe it won't take long, just wait."

Tsunade remained silent.

Jiraiya whispered: "No matter what, as a master, you should have an explanation for Kushina."

Tsunade looked up at Jiraiya and sneered: "You are really worried about the village now."

Jiraiya touched his head in embarrassment and laughed, then said seriously: "I want to use all my strength to push Minato, and then watch him move forward. Sometimes, I seem to be able to understand the old man's mood, looking at the disciple It’s a good feeling to grow and surpass yourself.”

Tsunade snorted, and suddenly the smiling face of Kushina appeared in her mind, as well as the excitement of successfully learning something, and she acquiesced to Jiraiya's statement.

"Jiraiya, you have finally grown up." Tsunade said calmly.

Hearing Tsunade's mature words, Jiraiya's face suddenly darkened, covering up the rosiness on his face, and he said dissatisfied: "It sounds like you are a generation older than me."

Tsunade picked up the wine, drank it down, and laughed at herself: "Among the three of us, you are the only one who looks like this. Minato will indeed be a good Hokage."

Jiraiya was silent for a while after hearing this, thinking of Orochimaru and Ye Zi, so he sighed deeply in his heart.

"Tsunade, do you agree?" The jump in topic did not seem abrupt between the two of them.

Jiraiya could see that Tsunade seemed to be following his advice.

"I will stay in the village for a while, for myself and for Kushina." Tsunade raised her glass again and drank it down.

Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, a smile appeared on his face, and he quickly raised the bottle to fill it up for Tsunade.

Tsunade agreed to stay in the village for a while, and then he and Minato would return to Mt. Myoki to practice senjutsu. At about the same time, he would leave Mt. Myoki and let Minato practice alone.

Until then, he can follow Tsunade and ensure her safety.

"Is there no news from the Suna Ninja?" Tsunade suddenly asked.

Jiraiya shook his head and said, "Even if Sand Ninja Village wants to do anything now, it doesn't have the energy left."

The news from the Suna Ninja caused Hagura and others to leave Konoha directly, but the alliance's wishes remained.

Tsunade snorted coldly and said calmly: "The ambition of the Rain Ninja Village is obvious, what does the village mean?"

Jiraiya drank the wine in the glass and said in a deep voice: "On the surface, we will stand still, but secretly, we will do our best to collect information about the Rain Ninja Village. According to the information provided by the Suna Ninja, not only are those who can use Wood Release Not only Ye Zi, but also Ye Zi in the public eye!"

"Is it the one who chose to defect from the village to follow Ye Zi?" Tsunade's eyebrows became solemn. Only her grandfather could use the Wood Release, and now even a grass ninja village traitor can use it.

Jiraiya nodded and said in a deep voice: "That's right, the village used to carry out research for a period of time for wood escape. As a result, a lot of volunteers were lost. The research never made any progress, and then it could only be sealed. Now the other party He must have mastered the method, and maybe he has something to do with Orochimaru."

Tsunade stretched out her thumb and bit it gently in her mouth. For some reason, memories from the past emerged, which was when she and Orochimaru first met Ye Zi.

"The higher ups attach great importance to this." Jiraiya raised his index finger and pointed upward, sarcastically saying: "In order to obtain this method, of course we must focus on intelligence, so we will try to avoid direct conflicts. Of course, when necessary, we can get Crucial is the best.”

Tsunade's eyes flickered and she said calmly: "Do you want to use your hand for human experimentation?"

Jiraiya looked a little heavy, nodded, and said, "If we can't support it with intelligence alone, I'm afraid we can only go so far."

Tsunade said sarcastically: "That village drove a man away with his own hands."

Jiraiya knew what Tsunade was referring to and said, "Without Orochimaru, the only suitable candidates are you and...Kushina."

Tsunade's face suddenly turned cold, she looked at Jiraiya coldly and said nothing.

Do you want Kushina to get involved in that area?

Facing Tsunade's cold gaze, Jiraiya shrugged and said with a wry smile: "I can't interfere with the decision, but I am a ninja of Konoha, and everything will be considered for the benefit of the village."

When it comes to wood escape and deeper knowledge, it is something that the Corpse Collection Force, which uses corpses to obtain information, cannot do it. Those who can hold this position, Orochimaru ranks first, followed by Tsunade and Jiu. Sinai.

If it really gets to that point, there is a high possibility that Kushina will be able to complete all of this.

"I will still choose to stay in the village for a while, for Kushina's sake and for myself."

Tsunade's tone was slightly colder, and what she said this time obviously had a different meaning.

Jiraiya could only smile bitterly.

……………………

In the Kingdom of Wind, a desolate land full of yellow sand and building debris, a figure stood in front of a huge broken stone pillar. There was a thick layer of sand on his body and shoulders. He had been standing here for a long time.

This figure is Orochimaru.

The cold snake eyes reflected the mottled unknown fonts on the broken stone pillars, as well as the vague and unclear depictions.

"Here, it's almost done."

Speaking to himself in a cold tone, Orochimaru stretched out his hand and pressed it on the stone pillar. After a moment, the stone pillar turned into grains of sand and blended into the passing wind.

Orochimaru turned and left.

"Ye Zi, you will definitely be very interested in what I am pursuing now."

………………

"What a nostalgic place."

On the beach near the sea, a slender figure in a robe stood here, his eyes falling on a certain place, as if he had been there before.

Ye Zi looked at the slender figure, feeling a little uncomfortable, and said calmly: "Take a rest before setting off."

That figure was Scorpion. The two of them set off from the Country of Rain and arrived at the poor country of the Country of Waves.

"Do you want me to find another ship?" Xie turned around and looked at Ye Zi.

"unnecessary."

Ye Zi avoided Xie's gaze and said coldly: "I think you'd better find a suitable one as soon as possible to replace your current body."
