Chapter 50 Jiraiya Left

Hokage Building.

"Old man." Jiraiya turned in from the window.

The third generation put down the documents in his hands.

"How is Natsuki?"

Jiraiya said:

"Although I won, I felt he had something to hold on to."

Sandai took a puff of cigarette calmly: "What about you?"

Jiraiya shook his head: "I didn't use sage mode."

The third generation raised his eyebrows:

"Oh? Then he didn't use Susanoo?"

"It was used, but for a short time. It seems that Susanoo consumes a very large amount of chakra and cannot last long."

Sandai took a few steps back and forth and murmured: "It can't last, it can't last..."

"Well, thank you for your hard work. Jiraiya."

The Third Hokage showed a relaxed expression.

Jiraiya shook his head:

"After a competition between Natsuki and I, I don't think Natsuki is a careerist. Maybe he really just wants to guard Uchiha's territory."

"Really?" If you don't judge a person by his own feelings, the third generation will definitely curse him.

But Jiraiya is different. Jiraiya also practices in Miaomu Mountain and receives natural energy for a long time.

You can marvel at what a person's character tendencies are.

Therefore, Jiraiya's words are of great reference value.

Moreover, even the Third Hokage himself has not fully realized how powerful Jiraiya's Sage Mode is.

Now that Jiraiya said there was no problem, the third generation relaxed a lot.

After all, Uchiha Natsuki has always been an unstable factor, often making unexpected moves.

This time it ruined Jiraiya's reputation, and I have to say that it would suit Jiraiya very well.

After all, the Third Generation could no longer force Jiraiya to take over as Hokage.

Which village's shadow can be a voyeur?

Speaking of which, since Orochimaru is not the murderer who stole the baby, then...

"Old man, I'm ready to leave."

Jiraiya's voice interrupted the Third Hokage's thoughts.

Sandai frowned: "You are leaving in such a short time?"

Jiraiya spread his hands:

"There seems to be nothing wrong with staying in the village. You have disbanded the Roots, and the Uchiha have given back their rights. I tried Natsuki and he is not a careerist."

"Why should I keep it?"

The third generation looked at Jiraiya with doubtful eyes:

"You're afraid that you can't go to the bathhouse to peep, so you're leaving in a hurry, right?"

Jiraiya's head is full of black lines:

"This is absolutely not the case! I just received news from Orochimaru and wanted to check it out."

"Really!?" There was a different emotion in Sandai's voice.

But Jiraiya didn't hear it and just nodded seriously:

"It's true. I received clues that there are traces of Orochimaru in the northern Tian Country."

Sandai pondered for a moment:

"Then go ahead. There's no need to catch him back."

Jiraiya looked at the Third Hokage in surprise.

"What did you say, old man?"

The Third Hokage looked a little confused and picked up his pipe and took a puff.

After a long time, he sighed:

"It doesn't matter whether he comes back or not. Just help me bring this message to him."

"Old man?"

Jiraiya was quite moved, he knew what the third generation meant by this sentence.

It means that the third generation will not pursue the past things. Moreover, the third generation still regarded Orochimaru as his disciple.

The third generation waved his hands a little tiredly:

"Natsuki brought news that the kidnapping of the baby was Danzo's work, and Orochimaru was at best collaborating on experiments."

"Although I don't know where Xiamu got the news, there is no need for him to lie."

Jiraiya's eyes lit up. To be honest, his friendship with Orochimaru was not shallow.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been working hard all the time, talking about chasing Orochimaru, but actually he was just traveling outside.

If the kidnapping of the baby hadn't been so bad back then, Jiraiya wouldn't have taken this job.

Now it is actually said that the mastermind of the kidnapping case was Danzo.

Jiraiya suddenly felt relieved.

When it comes to the relationship between the Third Generation and Orochimaru, Jiraiya is also aware of it.

Orochimaru has been extremely good since he was a child, and he can learn all ninjutsu in one go.

He is also the proud disciple of his teacher, and his relationship must be very good.

It's just that Orochimaru is unruly, so the teacher chose Minato.

In fact, what Jiraiya didn't know was that the third generation originally intended Orochimaru to be the fourth Hokage.

But Danzo recommended Orochimaru, and the two cooperated deeply.

Orochimaru is too capable and extremely independent in his thinking, and he does not accept anyone's control at all.

Neither can the Third Hokage.

That's why the third generation finally chose Minato Namikaze, a civilian representative.

After all, Namikaze Minato doesn't have any backstage, so it's easier to control.

It’s just that Sandai didn’t expect it.

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru was too arrogant and couldn't stand being provoked, so he went directly into the darkness to pursue his truth.

In the end, a baby kidnapping case broke out, and Orochimaru never explained it from beginning to end.

Orochimaru's departure in the end was not so much because of his position as Hokage.

Rather, what he couldn't stand was the third generation's distrust of him.

And the so-called Konoha Collapse Plan that Orochimaru came up with in the end was just like a child showing off his achievements to adults.

Or maybe I don’t want the Third Hokage to finally rot here.

Even when he finally killed the Third Hokage, he shed tears himself.

Jiraiya had dealt with Natsuki, and although the process was not pleasant, Jiraiya also believed the information.

"Well, I'll pass the message to Orochimaru."

Jiraiya's casual expression also changed slightly.

The Third Hokage waved his hand.

"Go see Naruto before you go. The kid is now in the Ninja School."

Jiraiya nodded and disappeared in the office.

...

Jiraiya came out of the Hokage building and used the transformation technique to avoid commotion.

He became an ordinary Konoha ninja.

It was afternoon and the Ninja School was not over yet.

After Jiraiya greeted the Anbu who was watching Naruto nearby, he found a suitable position.

Jiraiya looked over and saw Naruto, with fluffy yellow hair and a few whiskers on his face, was training seriously on the playground.

They started with running, and they had to cross obstacles, jump pits, and cross ropes.

These were the most basic physical fitness and body coordination training.

Iruka led the team at the front. Iruka talked while running.

"After you graduate, you will encounter countless terrain obstacles when performing missions, so now you have to adapt to various terrains."

The fastest student at the back is Sasuke. He looks very serious and will not be careless about any training.

From jumping into the pit to crossing the rope, Sasuke's movements are very standard and natural. You can tell at a glance that he has received similar training at home.

The others behind are different. The children of the major ninja clans all run ahead.

The children of other civilian families are still a little helpless about this kind of training.

There are many who fall into the pit and cry loudly, and fall from the rope and can't get up for a long time.

Of course, there are also children from the major ninja clans who run slower, such as Akimichi Choji...

The most outstanding among the civilians is Naruto. Naruto is very serious about this kind of training. He always remembers the expectations of Senior Natsuki for him.

So, even if Naruto often falls into the pit or falls from the rope.

But he gets up quickly and tries to catch up with Sasuke and his group.

After the last three laps, only half of the students have completed it.

Naruto relied on his own perseverance to run to the end of the first echelon and won the ninth place.

Jiraiya, who was far away in the tree, was very pleased.

Naruto is really hardworking and sensible.

After the training, Teacher Iruka announced the rankings and dismissed the free activities.

Iruka came to Naruto: "Naruto, are you okay?"

Naruto just fought very hard, so he fell many times and had many scratches on his body.

Naruto looked up at Iruka and showed a big smile: "Teacher Iruka, I'm fine, just some minor injuries."

Iruka patted Naruto's shoulder with a gentle face: "Naruto, you performed well this time, but be careful next time, don't be so reckless."

Naruto gave a thumbs up: "Teacher Iruka, don't worry, I will definitely get first place in the next training!"

"Naruto! Come over and play games!" A voice came from a distance.

"Teacher Iruka, I'm going to play..." Iruka's next words were blocked in his throat.

Seeing that Naruto was indeed fine, Iruka could only shake his head helplessly.

"Let's play a game of catching bad guys!"

"Then I'll be the guard!"

"I want to be the guard too!"

"Then I can only be Jiraiya, you come and catch me!"

Jiraiya, who was standing on the tree, almost fell down.

He cursed Xia Mu in his heart and left the ninja school.

He couldn't stay in Konoha for even half a minute!
