Konoha, July 2, 62
Naruto Building, Konoha, Land of Fire.
Naruto's office balcony
The sun is setting.
Jiraiya was sitting in the middle of all kinds of tall green plants.
It took him an hour and twenty-eight minutes to read all the documents given to him by Kakashi, who was too lazy to talk.
,
It took him another hour and forty-eight minutes to drink and daydream. And for the first time in his life, he was worried about Konoha.
In the era of three generations of sensei.
Konoha was paid to do missions.
Ninja's life was that simple. In the era of Four Generations.
Jiraiya couldn't figure out what Watergate wanted to do, but he knew that the people around him were the smartest people in Konoha. And now, Kakashi.
Was he really qualified to be the fifth generation leader, Naruto?
During the time he and Naruto were in Mount Myoboku,
In fact, there were two major events in Konoha. First, it was confirmed that Uchiha Belt Soil was the masked man. Second, it was confirmed that Orochimaru wasn't dead …
"Kakashi, you're too stingy about Uchiha Belt Soil. There's a lot of information you haven't gotten. "Jiraiya couldn't help but intervene in Kakashi's business.
One of Kakashi's known weaknesses was his arbitrariness.
Kakashi's eyes were still hurting, but he was still too lazy to talk, so he flipped through the minutes of the meeting where Orochimaru's bill was discussed.
Jiraiya saw that the three generations of sensei and Konoha's higher-ups spoke and left the meeting, so he continued to drink and daydream. He stayed until the sun had completely set, and the Anbu brought him and Kakashi dinner before he spoke again. "You're too stingy about Orochimaru.
It's been so long, and you still haven't solved it.
You're so indecisive … "
Kakashi tossed Konoha's financial report to Jiraiya as he ate.
Jiraiya compared Orochimaru's bill to see how much money Konoha had and how much he had spent.
He began to drink and daydream again. Until the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
Kakashi had already finished the last of his work that had to be done today.
After washing his face and brushing his teeth, he applied ointment on one eye and injected filler into the other eye socket.
"Where are you going to sleep tonight?" Kakashi asked Jiraiya for the first time today.
Jiraiya placed all the documents on the coffee table and left the spacious office with the empty flagon on his back. He then left the New Naruto Building under the moonlight.
He didn't return to his bedroom in Sarutobi Mansion. He felt that he couldn't go back at all. It turned out that Watergate's hostility towards the three generations of sensei was never unreasonable. If his sensei was really flawless during the night of the Nine Tails, he wouldn't have reacted so strongly when Watergate found out that Belt Soil was the masked man. It turned out that Kakashi wasn't being arbitrary, he was doing the right thing. If he didn't kill this Uchiha Belt Soil as soon as possible, who knew what kind of turmoil Konoha would experience. It turned out that Watergate's illness was also just right. Otherwise, how could Watergate face the three generations of Konoha's higher-ups?
It was just that Jiraiya couldn't go back to Hatake's house. Watergate asked him to help find the masked man, but the three generations of sensei said that there was no masked man at all. He didn't want to waste Konoha's resources, so he kept delaying the search. It turned out that Watergate wasn't crazy at that time, it was because of the masked man. It turned out that Watergate didn't really drive himself crazy until this time. It turned out that Jiraiya was really an irresponsible sensei.
Finally, after stabbing several locks in succession, Jiraiya kicked his dormitory door open. His dorm room was covered with a thick layer of dust. In fact, the whole building had been moved and was almost demolished, but Jiraiya didn't find out until today. But it was normal, he couldn't remember how many years it had been since he came back to sleep. Maybe it was after Orochimaru left Konoha. Orochimaru's dorm room was right next to his. Before Orochimaru devoted himself to the laboratory, they trained together every day, showered together, and met up with Tsunade for missions … He didn't know if Orochimaru knew that his dorm room in Konoha was about to be demolished.
Jiraiya lifted the sheets and lay down on the moldy mattress. Then he reached under his pillow.
The magazine with many beautiful women in swimsuits was still at the bottom. It was yellowed and faded, and the girls' faces were blurred. Tsunade always felt that Orochimaru was a decent person, while Jiraiya wasn't. But when Orochimaru was a teenager, he also accepted Jiraiya's invitation to read beautiful women's magazines in the dorm room next door.
Jiraiya quickly kicked open the door next door. Orochimaru left very suddenly. Who would've thought that the next day, Danzō and the third generation sensei would rush into the laboratory to arrest him?
But Orochimaru's dorm room was disappointing, only the standard wooden bed frame was left. "I don't know if it was raided after you left, or if it was because you came back to Konoha and asked Watergate to move it away bit by bit. You still have a lot of my books on your bookshelf. "
If it was raided, he really wanted to know the expressions of those people who saw the rows of beautiful women's magazines on Orochimaru's bookshelf. If it was Orochimaru who moved it away by himself. Jiraiya laughed dryly. He used to think that Orochimaru did something wrong and became a traitor, but now, is Orochimaru still a traitor? It's hard to figure out whether Orochimaru did something wrong or not. If Orochimaru isn't a traitor, then why did he attack Konoha during the Chunin Exam? If he's a traitor, then what the hell is the bill with Naruto's signature and fingerprint?
Also, if even a traitor like Orochimaru has been silently contributing to Konoha for so many years, then if he's not a traitor, then Jiraiya … Doesn't that mean he didn't do anything except receive a monthly pension from Konoha?
Again, if Konoha needs it, Jiraiya can really die for Konoha. But does Konoha need him to die?
Jiraiya was lying on the empty floor of Orochimaru's dormitory, looking at the dim light bulb and snoring loudly in the dark night. Jiraiya never sleeps, he never sleeps.
But other people in Konoha aren't as lucky as Jiraiya.
It's still Naruto's building, Naruto's office.
In the lounge, Kakashi was tossing and turning on his teacher's bed, just like every night when his teacher is in trouble. Orochimaru, Orochimaru, what should I do with that guy? Other than wanting to see what Konoha's traitor was up to, he was also waiting for Jiraiya to come back and let him deal with Orochimaru. During the meeting, everyone agreed that this was a good idea, but when Jiraiya came back, Kakashi didn't even say a word … With Jiraiya's ability, can he really help Konoha deal with Orochimaru?
"Fifth Sandaime, it's twelve o 'clock, you should sleep."
Hearing the stiff voice, Kakashi smiled. After sending off Jiraiya, the captain of Naruto's night shift that Sensei arranged for him came to report. This was an Anbu, one of Kakashi's own men, he was young and strong, strong and experienced, and most importantly, he was called Onijin Zaibutsu.
"Sir, can you stop smiling?" Zaibutsu felt that Kakashi's smile was reasonable, because he also couldn't understand Blondie's brain circuit. Just three years ago, he was still a traitor who relied on robbing to survive … It was already incredible that he suddenly became a Konoha Ninjas, and now Konoha's higher-ups. In Konoha, the captain of the Kage's Guard was indeed a high-level, and his confidentiality level was the same as that of the other department heads, and his salary was the same, and he had one vote in the high-level meetings. In the afternoon, he accompanied the Four Generations from Naruto to Hatake's house. Along the way, the Four Generations specifically instructed him.
Blondie was sick and retired, and even if he was crazy, he was still such a charming person. "Four Generations asked me to assist you. He said that although I failed to assassinate the Mizukage, according to the information at that time, I still have the strength to become the Mizukage. "
"Then you assist me." Kakashi was still giggling, he felt that it was ridiculous, from Sensei's illness to tonight, everything was so ridiculous that it seemed to be fake.
Zaibutsu sighed, "Orochimaru's matter is actually very easy to solve."
"Oh, what did Sensei say to you?" Kakashi narrowed his eyes, Sensei stayed in Naruto for an hour today, and also spent a short time alone with Eddy Phosphorus. Although Aromatic Phosphorus assured him that she didn't say a word to Sensei, and didn't mention anything about Orochimaru. But does Sensei really not know about Orochimaru's matter? "About Orochimaru."
"No, Four Generations didn't mention a word about Orochimaru." When Jiraiya was cramming documents, Zaibutsu was squatting in the Anbu's office to understand everything. Everything about Konoha was different from the sunshine and kindness he saw when he first entered Konoha. "He just asked me to be your security guard and your political adviser, it's easier for me to be an outsider. Four Generations felt that Asuma might not be enough for you. "
"…" Whether Sensei knew something or not, Kakashi understood that he disappointed Sensei. "Go on."
Zaibutsu continued, "I don't know what Four Generations thought at that time, but I know that he must have a solution."
"You're talking nonsense."
"My first suggestion for you is to ask the Fourth Generation if you need to."
Kakashi rolled his eyes.
Zaibutsu only made suggestions, he knew very well that he was different from Third Generation Naruto's second son or other people in Konoha. If Asuma said something wrong or did something wrong, he would be scolded, but he would be a target. "As for you, the matter can't be solved even after a month, because you can't judge whether Orochimaru is a friend or a foe. If he's a friend, what if he's a foe or a wolf into the house? If he's a foe, what if you push Orochimaru, who doesn't seem to be a threat to Konoha, to the opposite side? "
Kakashi finally straightened his eyes, he wanted to see what kind of shocking truth Sensei would say because he happened to be on duty at Naruto's building.
"I copied and recited all the Konoha laws the year I joined Konoha. In short, if I were you, I would directly announce to the world that Orochimaru is still alive, and that Orochimaru is still a Konoha Ninjas. "
"Orochimaru won't return to Konoha." This option actually existed from the beginning. Because Shimura Danzo, who opposed Orochimaru, was dead, and there was no victim in the human experiment that led to Orochimaru's defection. Orochimaru and Belt Soil's defection were completely different. "There are many things you don't know. If Orochimaru wants to come back, all he has to do is apologize to his Sensei, but he will never apologize."
"But will Orochimaru really stand up and refute that he's not a member of Konoha?" Zaibutsu still said slowly, "What he wants is money, because money and materials can support his research. So what good does it do him to refute Konoha? He's already a defected ninja, so why should Konoha pay him back? "
"…" Kakashi's mouth twitched.
"Of course, I'm afraid he won't admit that he's a member of Konoha. If he's a Konoha Ninjas, according to Konoha's laws, a dead ninja's property will be confiscated. He had died once before. The assets on the bill have been cleared. "
"…" Kakashi's thoughts were a bit confused, "What's the difference between that and not saying anything?"
"So Orochimaru won't object or admit it."
"Isn't that still dragging it out?"
"No, this way Konoha won't have to give him cash or materials." Zaibutsu's mouth twitched, "For example, Metke's base is full, and he wants to ask Konoha for some kind of policy to be self-sufficient, and Konoha will make it convenient for him."
"…" Are you sure you came up with this stupid idea yourself? Kakashi wanted to ask Zaibutsu, but he didn't open his mouth.
"…" Zaibutsu finished what he wanted to say and continued to stand guard for Kakashi. As for Konoha's Naruto, he put a defected ninja beside him when he slept. Whether he could fall asleep or not, he didn't care.
Kakashi really couldn't sleep this time. He felt that Zaibutsu was really born in the Water Country, and his brain was big enough to raise a whale, but he also felt that he should really ask Sensei about this. Although Sensei never took the initiative to inquire too much about the new Naruto's authority, but shouldn't he be more conscious. "Hey, wait, what about Nagato? The leader of the Akatsuki is still in Orochimaru's hands."
"Without the achievement of capturing the leader of the Akatsuki, what reason can Konoha use to announce Orochimaru's resurrection and return to Konoha?" Zaibutsu was suddenly not optimistic about Konoha's future, "The remaining defected ninjas have their own Shinobi Villages, okay? Except for Konoha, who would allow their own defected ninjas to get away with it? Even if someone wants to be biased, you can just release the information of the defected ninjas to other Shinobi Villages, and there will always be people who will roll up their sleeves to catch them. And don't forget that the purpose of the Akatsuki was to collect Bijuu, but he was killed as soon as he arrived in Konoha. "
"…" Zaibutsu, why is your tone more and more like my Sensei's?
"…" Zaibutsu slowly hid his figure. He also felt that his life was full of absurdities. From the time he killed all his classmates and became a Genin, to the time he gained the trust of his friends, to the time when a Ghostman who killed all his classmates gained the trust of his friends, to the time when his coup failed and he fled, to the time when Kakashi picked him up and brought him back to Konoha, to become the Konoha Anbu, to become Naruto's confidant? Sigh, it's just like a dream, I don't know if Haku will believe me when I go home tomorrow morning.
"In any case, I'll believe Mom's words."
Hatake Mansion, Bo Fung Watergate, at the time when he would usually be dead asleep.
Naruto yawned, feeling sleepy. He felt that today was just like a dream, but the pills floating in front of him told him that his mother was beside him, preparing to feed his father the pills. "Mom, don't worry about dad, just feed him."
"I knew that you and your son would definitely be on the same side." Watergate refused to take the pills. No matter how much his wife tried to explain to him, Eddy Phosphorus was trying to help him maintain his strength, it was impossible for her to not take the pills to help him recover immediately. "I felt uncomfortable after taking the pills, but now I'm not as weak as before, it's fine even if I don't take them. Naruto, you have to believe in dad. "
"Mom?" Even though his father was holding his and his mother's hands, Naruto couldn't hear or see them, but he found that he was quickly and intimately intimate with his mother without any hindrance. "Don't worry about dad, just do it."
And so, Kina pinched Watergate's face and forced him to open his mouth, then threw the pills in one by one, and nodded to Naruto.
Naruto nodded to the air, and cooperated by pouring the warm water in his hand into his father's mouth.
See, this is the tacit understanding between mother and son, connected by blood. Watergate had no choice but to take the pills that made him dizzy. Then, he let Naruto cover him with the quilt, and Kina rubbed his head. "Forget it, forget it, this is family."
"Then, Mom and Dad, good night, I'm going to sleep too." Naruto wanted to laugh out loud. Home, he had a complete home.
"Go, go. Your mom told you not to be greedy at night. Cover your stomach." The pills took effect quickly, and Watergate had no choice but to close his eyes.
"Okay, okay." If it was in the past, Naruto would have been worried about his father and come to watch at night, but since his mother was by his side … he could only hope that it wasn't a dream when he woke up tomorrow morning. "Good night, Teacher Yamato."
Yamato grabbed Naruto. "Just now, it was really the pills floating, right? The pills were floating!"
"Yes, my mom. Didn't you say hello to my mom at dinner?"
"But."
"Teacher Yamato, do you believe me?"
Yamato shook his head.
Naruto was a little embarrassed. "Then do you believe my dad?"
"Yes." Yamato reached out his hand to Naruto. He saw it. Naruto was pulled by Four Generations like this …
Naruto pushed Yamato's hand away and hummed a tune as he went to take a shower.
"Naruto?"
Naruto continued humming. It wasn't that he didn't want to help Teacher Yamato, but he was still dizzy. "Anyway, let's talk about it tomorrow. Yes, tomorrow."
Tomorrow was not impossible to predict.
