Chapter 2300 Sure

"Um."

In response to Jiraiya's unspeakable words and the uncontrollable look of shock on his face, the Third Hokage did not hide it anymore and nodded straightforwardly.

Although there is no verbal confirmation, just this nod is already a positive confirmation.

Taki Chiba is still alive.

"Yes...really?"

After hearing these words that were nothing short of absolute certainty, Jiraiya took a slight breath, and then said, "Is it what that child thinks again?"

"Um!"

In response, the Third Hokage nodded again in affirmation.

Hiding the fact that he was alive and taking advantage of the Nine-Tails Rebellion to announce his death was indeed the idea of ​​the child Chiba.

The purpose was to secretly track down Uchiha Nobuhiko.

Of course, there is also a hint of deterrence in this.

Yes, deterrence.

This is also to deter the other four major ninja villages, so as not to cause any restlessness in other ninja villages due to the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

After all, it is a bit unusual for Konoha to announce the death of a ninja of Chiba's level to the world at a time when his vitality was severely damaged by the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

From the perspective of other villages, after the death of the Fourth Hokage, the person who supported the village's intimidation was undoubtedly Takichi, the little monster of Konoha who became famous in the Third Ninja War and was as dazzling as the Fourth Hokage. Ye is the one.

Even if this little monster is really dead, it is impossible for him to die at the same time as the Fourth Hokage.

Doesn't this look like telling all other ninja villages that Konoha is now at its weakest period in history, with vitality severely damaged, a large number of ninjas dead, and even two of its mainstays broken, come and attack us What does it look like?

Then, coupled with the way Chiba can never guess what he wants to do in the eyes of Waimura, or what kind of backhand he has hidden, the appearance of winning by surprise is enough to create a kind of force that is different from that of force. psychological deterrence.

The other ninja villages were not sure what cards Konoha was going to play, or in other words, what kind of surprise this little monster from Konoha, who didn't know whether he was dead or not, would come up with a surprise, so that all the ninja villages did not dare to act rashly.

In fact, this is indeed the case. As soon as the news of the death was announced, all the secret operations in the Ninja Village suddenly stopped.

The ninja world entered the most peaceful period of the Third Ninja War, which also gave Konoha a lot of breathing space. Until Kumogakure came to make peace, other villages dared to move.

It was during that time that he had to make a difficult decision.

Compromise to Kumogakure.

Compromise to Kumogakure who kidnapped the heir of the Hyuga clan and even complained first.

Send the body of the leader of the Hyuga clan.

To be honest, even the Third Hokage, an old man who has been in the ninja world for so many years, broke two offices when he heard Kumogakure's excessive request. table.

However, a single move can affect the whole body.

At that time, the undercurrent of all the Ninja Villages began to surge. Taki Chiba was still not showing up, or in other words, disappeared as if he was really dead. All the Ninja Villages finally began to get ready to move.

Yunyin Village is undoubtedly a beginning.

At that time, he could definitely recall Chiba. As long as Chiba showed up, I am afraid that other ninja villages would be afraid to move. Even Kumogakure would probably not dare to mention this matter again.

However, if Chiba is recalled, Uchiha Nobuhiko's affairs may be greatly affected.

This Uchiha Nobuhiko, known as the second Uchiha Madara, has surpassed the threat to other ninja villages. Regarding his matter, the Third Hokage is very clear and must not ignore it, let alone underestimate it.

In other words, at that time, the Third Hokage was actually in a dilemma.

After thinking about it, in the end, the Third Hokage still felt that Uchiha Nobuhiko's affairs were much more important than the ending of the Ninja World War, Kumogakure's difficulties, etc.

Therefore, he did not recall.

Can only compromise.

Xiang Yunyin lowered his head.

but,

This time, he underestimated the child Chiba after all. Unexpectedly, this child seemed to predict the future, directly defeated the army that was threatened by Yunyu, and then reached Yunyu's headquarters as quickly as possible, killing The Fourth Raikage was seriously injured, and Kirabi, the famous perfect Jinchuuriki, almost died at the hands of Chiba.

At that time, when he received a secret tip from the secret ninja who was following up on Uchiha Nobuhiko's intelligence, he couldn't even describe what he felt at that time.

Especially after Kumogakure sent a peace treaty that was almost like a surrender and secretly returned the body of Hizashi who died in his brother's place, and said that he would keep Konoha's secrets secret and would never do anything evil again, Looking at the particularly humble envoy Yunyin, he didn't know what to say.

And Yunyin suddenly made peace, which also put an end to all thoughts of the Ninja Village, and everything was back on track.

until now.

At the same time, whether Chiba is still alive is still a mystery in the ninja world.

And Konoha naturally kept it a secret to the end.

As for why Jiraiya didn't know about this, it was his decision and he didn't let Jiraiya know about it.

It's not that he doesn't trust Jiraiya, but that Jiraiya has been out collecting information after all. Although he doesn't want to think so, as the Hokage, the Third Hokage must still be prepared for Jiraiya to sacrifice and the information to be obtained by other villages.

The other information is just that, there is nothing we can do if we find out.

Only Chiba's life and death cannot be known to the Ninja Village except Kumogakure.

This is what Qian Dingzhuwan told Qianye when he left.

The fact that he is still alive must not be allowed to be known to others. Even if someone already knows, it must be kept a secret. The fact that he is still alive must not be made public.

That's why he didn't tell Jiraiya.

Although this is a bit unkind, after all, Jiraiya can absolutely be trusted, but this is a world full of darkness, and the Third Hokage must do this.

Chiba has become a crucial figure, no matter what the situation, is the most crucial figure.

Even some information about him is top priority.

As for the fact that Chiba is still alive, apart from the secret ninjas who follow up on various secret information sent back from Chiba, and Kakashi, who has always had a good relationship with Chiba, only a handful of people know about it. .

Even those people who are Konoha's elder advisors don't know.

In other words, we don’t know for sure.

"That's it for now. Next, I'm going to prepare for the Chunin Exam."

And thinking of this, the Third Hokage said without saying anything more.

"Yes! Leave the matter of the Wooden Envoy and the opponent to me."

And when he heard this, Jiraiya also knew that it was good that he knew about this matter and couldn't make it public. He didn't talk nonsense at the moment and nodded in agreement.

"Before that, please don't forget this."

In this regard, the Third Hokage seemed to suddenly think of something and warned him like this.

"yes!"

Hearing this, Jiraiya seemed to know what the Third Hokage was referring to. He nodded immediately, responded, and disappeared into the room in a flash.

please.

Jiraiya!

While watching Jiraiya leave all the way, the Third Hokage couldn't help but have this thought flash in his mind.

Then, he slowly walked out of the room.

The Chuunin Exam, the third test, is about to begin!
