Gou in the ninja world

Chapter 56 Sannin Jiraiya

Another beautiful morning.

The early morning leaves are shrouded in a peaceful atmosphere, bathed in the warm sunshine, people start a new day.

Shops on the side of the road opened one after another, and with the breeze, the scent of dishes permeated the streets and alleys.

After all the shops opened, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually increased. The adults rushed to work, and the school-age children went to school in groups of two or three, while the younger children were running around in the crowd like a gust of wind. , and sometimes let out bursts of silver bell-like laughter. They don't have adults to control them, and they don't need to go to school, so they can play hard.

It seems that everything is so peaceful.

However, in this peaceful atmosphere, there will always be some unsocial voices, disrupting the peaceful atmosphere.

"Oh oh oh~ this is great!"

"That's not bad either!"

At this moment, on the roof of a building in Muye Village, squatting a white-haired adult man, wearing a red waistcoat, wearing a pair of wooden clogs, and holding a single barrel as thick as an arm in his hand. The binoculars, scanning back and forth on the street, seemed to be observing something.

While observing, he was still muttering, with a lewd smile on his face.

"That's great, as expected of Konoha..."

The white-haired wretched man smashed his mouth, sucking in his saliva and sighing.

"Simply heaven."

As the most powerful country in the ninja world, the Land of Fire has the best geographical location and living environment. The living standard of Muye Village is generally higher than other places. In addition, Feng Shui nourishes people, so there are many beautiful women. Protruding and warped, with fair skin and beautiful appearance, it is several grades higher than other villages.

Especially those young ninjas in miniskirts, fishnet stockings...

"Sure enough, you are doing these boring things again, Ziraiya."

Just as this person was dreaming about some kind of dream-like life, an abrupt voice suddenly came from behind him.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi stood behind him, looked at this familiar figure, and sighed helplessly.

It turned out that this pervert who peeked at the beautiful woman on the roof was Jiraiya, one of Konoha Sannin.

"This is collecting materials, old man, didn't you often do it with me before?"

Jilai also curled his lips when he heard the words, he didn't look panicked at all, instead he turned his body slightly, squinted at him with his eyes, and said disdainfully.

"Cough cough."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi blushed and couldn't help coughing a few times. Even he felt a little embarrassed that his black history was exposed in person.

Fortunately, there was no one around, and this kind of little secret would not be leaked out, so he was only slightly embarrassed for a while, and then his face calmed down again.

"All right."

After a pause, Hiruzaru Sarutobi said again: "I didn't invite you back to let you peek at other people's thighs."

"Ok."

Jiraiya slowly retracted the binoculars, stood up, leaned against the railing behind him, and looked back at him.

"Old man, why did you call me back this time?"

He asked word for word.

When talking about business, Zilai also withdrew his previous hippie smile, and his face gradually became a little serious.

He is very clear in his heart that Hiruza Sarutobi is not the kind of person who makes a big fuss, and Hiruza Sarutobi is also well aware of the importance of his work outside the home. If it is not something very urgent, then he will definitely not spend so much The price is to let myself give up everything at hand and return to Muye Village.

"When I was following Orochimaru recently, I stumbled upon a mysterious organization that was hidden deeply. I just found out some clues. I wanted to continue to inquire. If I hadn't received your summons..."

Jiraiya also said that he gave up very important clues for the news of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Um……"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded his head when he heard the words, speaking plainly, although the voice was not loud, it seemed as if a thunder had exploded in the flat ground.

"The organization you mentioned is called Akatsuki, right?"

He said every word.

"how do you know?"

Jiraiya frowned, he had just discovered something, and Konoha was actually faster than himself.

You know, in order to get this news, he has worked very hard. After several months of hard work and lurking, he finally got the name of this organization from a ninja in a small country, and only the name, they The number of members, their names, and their strength are still unclear.

This is confidential information that Jiraiya himself obtained at a considerable cost, and Sarutobi Hiruzen actually got the same information while sitting in his office, which really had to surprise Jiraiya.

Could it be that Anbu's intelligence capabilities are now so strong?
Jiraiya thought to himself, based on his understanding, the five major domestic intelligence networks have been maintained by Anbu and Gen for decades, while the intelligence networks of other small countries and local organizations outside of the five major countries have been maintained by Jiraiya within decades. Taking advantage of the opportunity of wandering around, it was established from scratch. Generally speaking, unless there is a change in the situation of the five major countries, the news about the small countries should be the most well-informed.

Akatsuki's matter itself does not belong to the scope of the Five Great Nations, so Jiraiya should be the first to get the news, but Hiruza Sarutobi learned about the situation at the same time as himself, or maybe one step earlier than himself. It shows that Anbu's tentacles are longer than I imagined.

It seems that after not coming back for a few years, the development of Konoha seems to be beyond my expectation.

"That's why I'm calling you back."

Hiruza Sarutobi looked at him and said, since the establishment of Yukimura, many secrets of the ninja world have been transparent to Konoha, so now Konoha Village has abundant information resources, and there is no need for another person who has High-level ninjas are engaged in intelligence work outside, and what they need now is a powerful fighter more than intelligence elements.

"In the past month, many things have happened in Muye Village..."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi spoke slowly with his pipe in his mouth.

"I've heard that..."

Zilai has also heard about what happened in Muye Village in the past month. He leaned on the railing behind him, supporting his body lazily, but said things that made people completely uneasy.

"I heard that the person who controlled Kyuubi was discovered, then Uncle Yan died, and then Danzo defected again. Although I don't know the inside story, everyone knows that Konoha can be said to have happened within a month. Earth-shaking changes, these news spread almost throughout the entire ninja world, even in the most remote places..."

Speaking of this, Jiraiya's face darkened slightly. Obviously, even for him who has experienced various big scenes, he was a little dazed in the face of these sudden shocking changes.

"so……"

He looked around, lowered his voice, and asked in a very serious tone.

"Old man, what happened in Muye Village?"

"Ugh……"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi sighed, did not answer, just said so.

"This matter is very complicated. If you really want to explain it, you won't be able to explain it in a short while. Before explaining, I want to ask you one thing..."

His eyes changed, and he said seriously.

"You said that you are tracking down that organization called Akatsuki recently, so how much do you know about the details of that organization?"

"Not much..." Jiraiya shook his head, and replied, "I was just monitoring Orochimaru at first, and you know, according to his habit, he will return to Konoha for revenge one day, so I've been on my guard against him since he left the village."

"En." Hiruzaru Sarutobi listened carefully, and couldn't help sighing again when he heard the name of Orochimaru, thinking of the disaster that happened in the future.

"It wasn't until this year that I accidentally discovered that he had joined an organization, because that organization was deeply hidden, and it seemed to only be active in some remote small countries in recent years, so it was very difficult to inquire about their news, and I spent a lot of money Only then did I find out that the name of their organization is 'Xiao', but I didn't expect that you already knew it..."

Speaking of this, Zilai also sighed helplessly, feeling that his hard work for several months seemed to be useless.

"About this, we have only recently learned."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi comforted him and said that he and others obtained the information by cheating, while Jiraiya obtained the information by his own means. Different methods, different difficulties, and naturally different efficiencies.

So of course we can’t underestimate Jiraiya’s role just because of this gap. After all, Jiraiya doesn’t have a cheat, and can rely on his own strength to discover potential enemies and dangers when almost everyone doesn’t know about Akatsuki. , is quite remarkable.

"So, do you have any clues about the mysterious person with a whirlpool mask in the Akatsuki organization?"

After asking about Akatsuki's general situation, Hiruza Sarutobi began to ask the most important question at present, because the situation of Obito has completely exceeded the development trend of the original work, and it is not something that Yukimura can understand, so he must seek information from the outside world , although he has sent people to Wuyin and Yuren villages to inquire about information, but he has not sent back any news. Now probably the only person who is most likely to know something about the situation is Jiraiya.
"The whirlpool mask?"

Ji Laiya was taken aback when he heard the words, and just thought about whether there was such a person in the Akatsuki organization he knew, and then he immediately reacted, and his face changed slightly.

"Isn't this..." He said with an ugly face, "Isn't that the mysterious person who controlled Nine-Tails in the report seven years ago?"

"Could it be that?"

Jiraiya's heart sank, so that person is also a member of the Akatsuki organization?

"That's right." Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded, and said in a deep voice, "That's him."

"It's actually like this..."

Jiraiya took a deep breath. If Hiruzaru Sarutobi hadn't brought it up, he wouldn't have known that there was this hidden story in it. When he discovered Akatsuki's existence, he only regarded them as a future threat, but he never expected that A long time ago, they had already attacked Muye Village.

"So, you know his identity?"

He hurriedly asked, since Muye Village was able to discover the truth seven years ago, he probably knew more than himself.

"Yes."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded again.

Regarding the identity of Uchiha Obito, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew it early on, the reason why he didn't point it out at that time was because it was at the time of Uchiha's rebellion, although Obito did not belong to the current Uchiha in principle The wave clan, but he is still surnamed Uchiha after all, and the blood of Uchiha flows from his body. If it is really necessary to split, it is not so easy to split.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi was afraid that the disclosure of this news would further cause conflicts and disputes between Uchiha and Konoha. If the operation was not done properly, it would even have a counterproductive effect and speed up the pace of the war.

Therefore, considering the situation at the time, he concealed this important information, only revealing the existence of Obito, but not his true identity.

But up to now, Uchiha’s coup plan has been blocked, and after several meetings and exchanges between the two parties, the relationship has also eased. Although it is still impossible to publicize Obito’s true identity at this time, Jiraiya is also Konoha Village. At the same time, he has no prejudice against the Uchiha clan, so it’s okay to reveal a thing or two to him.

"That's why I called you back."

He took a step forward, stood on the edge of the roof, looked at the people coming and going below, and said slowly.

"Everything has to start from a month ago..."
