Chapter 122 Lord Bai Ye
The questioning of the Third Hokage made Danzo fall into a brief silence.
Half a year ago, he did carry out espionage activities in the territory of the Rain Country, trying to use the conflict between the Akatsuki Organization and the Hidden Rain Village to plunge the Rain Country into chaos.
For this purpose, he invested in Bai Ye and let Bai Ye seize power and become the leader of the Akatsuki Organization.
But what he didn't expect was that Bai Ye's target was not limited to the leader of Akatsuki, but the entire Rain Country. Bai Ye had been hiding his strength for this reason. Later, he took advantage of Hanzo's absence and took over the Hidden Rain Village.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with saying that Bai Ye is Hanzo's disciple.
During the period when Bai Ye pretended to be captured, he was indeed accepted as a disciple by Hanzo. He was also present at the ceremony of accepting disciples at that time and witnessed it with a group of rain ninjas.
But these news cannot be shared with Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Once it is revealed that the root under his command has been seriously injured, the Third and Fourth Hokage will definitely take the opportunity to seize his power, and the root may be directly disbanded.
After a moment of silence, Danzo said, "I have had some conflicts with them, but they are all in the past. However, Bai Ye is really difficult to deal with. You must not take it lightly."
"Really?"
The Third Hokage showed a suspicious look.
Being stared at by the Third Hokage, Danzo felt a burst of anger in his heart, frowning and said:
"Why are you looking at me? Everything I do is for Konoha."
The Third Hokage was about to question him in the tone of a Hokage, but thought about it and decided not to.
Danzo's hesitant look must have concealed something. The matter is definitely not as simple as Danzo said, but now he has resigned as Hokage and cannot force Danzo to speak.
However, this does not prevent him from doubting Danzo.
After decades of getting along, he knows Danzo too well. Danzo's actions against the Hidden Rain Village must have caused a big mess, and it may even affect the interests of the village.
Utatane Koharu and Mitomon En are no longer surprised by this scene.
Is Danzo still himself if he doesn't confront Hiruzen? They all wondered if someone else was disguising themselves with the transformation technique.
Seeing the atmosphere in the advisory office becoming more and more depressing, the Third Hokage sighed and said, "Forget it, let's continue to watch Minato's performance. Minato is now the Hokage."
"I..."
Danzo didn't know what to say for a moment, and could only continue to look at the crystal ball.
After Minato Namikaze became the Fourth Hokage, the balance of power in the village was suddenly broken, and it has not returned to normal until now.
He actually thought of Hiruzen as the Hokage just now, but Hiruzen is now just an advisory elder.
...
Here at the Ninja School.
After visiting the Ninja School, Minato Namikaze took the exchange group to eat and rest on the spot. While sharing his experience in managing the Ninja School with Bai Ye, he talked about Jiraiya's interesting stories with Yahiko.
Jiraiya didn't get angry when he heard his own embarrassing stories, but just smiled and reminisced with Konan.
During the conversation, Jiraiya asked about Nagato, wondering why Nagato didn't come together, and Konan explained it seriously.
The Rain Country is still in chaos, and someone must stay in the village to take charge.
Jiraiya frowned, but also said that he could understand. He had been in the Land of Rain for three years and knew the difficulties faced by the Land of Rain.
The Land of Rain is different from Konoha. It is very difficult for ordinary people there to survive.
Looking at Bai Ye in the distance, Jiraiya said to Xiaonan with some doubts: "Xiaonan, how did you get to know him, and when did you create the Akatsuki organization?"
Xiaonan also looked at Bai Ye and said: "After Jiraiya left, we wandered in the Land of Rain for a few years, and finally met Bai Ye to establish the Akatsuki organization together."
"The Akatsuki organization was established based on the words you left behind, but Bai Ye added some new things to it..."
At this point, Xiaonan paused, hesitating whether to continue.
Hearing this, Jiraiya was stunned. The establishment of the Akatsuki organization has always been something he is proud of, but what did Bai Ye add?
This aroused his curiosity?
Facing Jiraiya's puzzled expression, Konan slowly said: "Bai Ye thinks Jiraiya and Yahiko are too naive. Some things cannot be achieved by negotiation and mutual understanding alone."
"However, the current Akatsuki organization has abandoned some fantasies and started to face reality."
Jiraiya fell into deep thought. He found that he couldn't understand what Konan said, and then he laughed dumbly and had to admit that he was old.
The three orphans who followed him back then have grown up and have their own careers.
And he seems to be still standing still, always pursuing the peace brought by the child of prophecy.
At this time, Bai Ye noticed Konan and Jiraiya on the side, walked over and said: "Hello, Master Jiraiya, you should be the teacher of Yahiko and the others."
Jiraiya was brought back to reality, nodded slightly and said: "You should be Bai Ye, I just learned about your situation, Yahiko and the others really thank you for your help."
"Of course, if I hadn't been here, the Akatsuki organization would have been destroyed long ago."
Bai Ye's words stunned Jiraiya, he just subconsciously boasted, but he didn't expect Bai Ye to be so immodest, his three disciples were so strong, how could they get into trouble so easily.
However, considering Bai Ye's age, Jiraiya did understand a little.
When he was a child, he was even crazier than Bai Ye, claiming to be the Toad Sage and the savior of the ninja world every day, but later he was hit by reality and his personality became stable and mature.
This kind of immature kid must accept the beating of society.
Thinking of this, Jiraiya stood up, stretched out his palm as big as a palm fan, and hugged Bai Ye in his arms:
"Then I must thank my disciples for saving my life. Bai Ye kid, when it's night, I will take you to eat the village's specialty Ichiraku Ramen."
Seeing this scene, Xiaonan's eyes flashed with a trace of panic.
Teacher Jiraiya is so familiar, could Bai Ye be thinking about him? And Bai Ye didn't lie, he really saved the Akatsuki organization, all of this is true.
Bai Ye broke free from Jiraiya's restraints and said seriously:
"I am not young. Secondly, my teacher Hanzo and the third generation Hokage are of the same age. According to this calculation, I am your peer. I call you Jiraiya-sama, and you should reply Bai Ye-sama."
Looking at Bai Ye who was serious, Jiraiya couldn't help laughing and said:
"Okay, okay, Lord Bai Ye, I formally invite Lord Bai Ye to attend an important event tonight, please be sure to arrive on time."
After hearing this, Bai Ye nodded and said, "I accept the invitation of Lord Jiraiya."
Seeing this scene, Xiao Nan on the side was relieved. She didn't want Bai Ye and Teacher Jiraiya to have a conflict. It was great to maintain the current situation.
However, Bai Ye has been pretending to be harmless since entering Konoha. What is he doing?
Although it is said that a fourteen-year-old boy should be like this, they are members of the Akatsuki organization.
