Become the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Jiraiya was waiting for the best opportunity to take down Orochimaru.

As Orochimaru's eternal rival, he knew Orochimaru's strength very well. Orochimaru's strength was on par with his, but Orochimaru had mastered the Impure World Reincarnation Technique and could drive the First and Second Hokage to fight.

In the entire ninja world, the only ninja who could deal with the First and Second Hokage together was Bai Ye.

So he had to find a suitable opportunity to defeat Orochimaru quickly before he used the Impure World Reincarnation Technique to prevent the situation from getting worse.

The Konoha jonin team that came to support was a little confused when they saw this scene.

They didn't understand why Jiraiya was lurking here. It was obvious that Tsunade and Danzo had already joined forces to attack Orochimaru. They only needed to go to reinforce the two of them to have a chance to capture the traitor Orochimaru.

However, considering Jiraiya's identity as the acting Hokage, they didn't say anything in the end.

Although Orochimaru attacked the village and killed the Third Hokage, this is ultimately the "family affair" of the Hokage family, and outsiders like them cannot interfere.

Jiraiya noticed the gazes of several people and quickly explained what had just happened.

When they heard that Danzo attacked and controlled Uchiha Shisui, and might have participated in the plan to destroy Konoha, these senior ninjas all showed incredible eyes.

Aren't Danzo and Orochimaru both from your Hokage family? How can the internal struggle of the faction reach this point?

Nara Shikaku thought for a while, and then said: "Jiraiya-sama, do you have any witnesses and physical evidence about Danzo-sama's betrayal of the village?"

Jiraiya waved his hand, signaling the Anbu beside him to take off the mask and stick out his tongue.

When they saw Shisui's appearance, the scarlet Sharingan, and the clearly visible Tongue-Destroying Root Seal on his tongue, the senior ninjas instantly became more solemn.

The Tongue-killing Mark on Shisui's body is not fake, and Jiraiya cannot deceive them in this regard.

The most important thing is that, judging from Danzo's attitude towards Uchiha, it is really possible for Danzo to attack Shisui. After all, Uchiha Itachi, who personally exterminated the clan, has a close connection with Danzo.

After looking at each other, the jonins all looked at Jiraiya, and then looked at Tsunade and others in the distance.

They knew that it was time for them to take sides. It didn't matter whether what Jiraiya said was true or not, whether Danzo betrayed the village and colluded with Orochimaru to attack Uchiha Shisui.

What was important was their stance, whether they supported Jiraiya or the leader of the Root.

However, it was not difficult for them to choose this side. Whether from an emotional perspective or from an interest perspective, they all supported Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas.

Jiraiya is the disciple of the Third Hokage and a role model in the history of Konoha. He has completed the most S-level tasks in the entire Konoha and has made great contributions to Konoha.

Although Danzo has done a lot for the village, they are all shady tasks.

Most importantly, the ninjas that the Root Organization has to deal with are not only enemies, but also ninjas within the village. No one will like the Root Organization that will attack them.

Standing silently behind Jiraiya, they made their choice with practical actions.

On the battlefield.

After using the Wind Style Shuriken to force Orochimaru back, Danzo used several high-level Wind Style Ninjutsu in succession. The sharp Wind Style turned into an invisible blade, as if it could cut through space, making Orochimaru dare not get close.

Even Orochimaru, as a collaborator, had to sigh at Danzo's strength.

Danzo's Wind Style is already superb. It is probably difficult for the entire ninja world to find a ninja who is better than Danzo in Wind Style, even the Wind Style of the Sand Village cannot do it.

After retreating and keeping some distance, Orochimaru also began his own performance. He frowned and looked at Danzo, and said:

"Danzo, are you really going to stop me from taking Tsunade away?"

"Tsunade is your rival on the road to becoming Hokage. If you let me take her away, you might become the fifth Hokage."

Danzo had long noticed the Konoha ninjas ambushing behind him, and said righteously:

"I will not use such despicable means to become Hokage. Even if I save Tsunade, I can still defeat Tsunade head-on in the jonin vote."

Danzo spoke loudly, enough for everyone nearby to hear clearly.

After hearing Danzo's speech, Tsunade showed an incredible look. A dark person like Danzo could actually say such words.

However, she had just been saved by Danzo, so it was not easy to refute.

The Konoha ninjas in the dark also felt that Danzo was a bit hypocritical. This kind of thing was normal when it came from other Konoha ninjas, but it would always be weird when it came from Danzo.

Moreover, after listening to Jiraiya's explanation, they also felt more and more that Danzo had planned this action with Orochimaru, with the purpose of performing for him.

After all, if there was no preparation in advance, how could Danzo, who was always hiding his head and showing his tail, appear here first, and rescue Tsunade without hesitation and confront Orochimaru.

You know, whether it was the Nine-Tails Rebellion or the recent Konoha Collapse Plan, Danzo's roots were the last to arrive at the battlefield.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, it is not so easy to remove them.

After righteously rejecting Orochimaru, Danzo launched an attack on Orochimaru again, and at the same time did not forget to observe the woods behind him, waiting for support from Konoha Ninja Village.

A few minutes later, Danzo found that something was wrong.

Did the Konoha ninja hiding in the dark come under attack? Why didn't they come out to help him at this time? Could it be that Orochimaru has made other plans?

Thinking of this, Danzo looked at Orochimaru not far away and frowned.

In Danzo's opinion, the Konoha ninja did not support him, it could only be that Orochimaru had made some moves. Could it be that there was a problem with Shisui?

But he only asked Shisui to disguise himself as Orochimaru's subordinate to stop Jiraiya, and he could retreat in half a minute.

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Danzo could only continue to attack Orochimaru and continue his performance.

A few minutes later, the Konoha ninja hiding in the dark finally took action. They surrounded Orochimaru from different directions and even set up a sealing barrier.

Orochimaru's face changed slightly, and then he launched the Ten Thousand Snakes Formation to interfere.

Overwhelming venomous snakes appeared on the ground, biting the surrounding ninjas madly, trying to drown the Konoha ninjas.

Jiraiya did not hesitate and used Fire Escape.

With the help of the immortal technique, Jiraiya's Fire Escape was extremely terrifying, instantly destroying the Ten Thousand Snakes Formation and turning all the poisonous snakes into ashes.

Orochimaru's face became a little ugly, and he felt a little pained by the loss of so many poisonous snakes at once.

Looking up at Jiraiya not far away, Orochimaru said with a fake smile: "It's been a long time since I saw you, Jiraiya. I didn't expect that we would meet here."

"Why did you attack Tsunami?" Jiraiya asked.

Orochimaru said disapprovingly: "I need Tsunade's help for my experiment, but unfortunately she refused me, so I can only take her away by force..."

"I just didn't expect her hemophobia to be so serious that she was defeated in an instant."

Orochimaru's attitude made Jiraiya very angry, and he said with wide eyes: "Tsunade's rejection of you is her freedom, you have no right to force her, but I haven't settled accounts with you about the Third Hokage yet?"

"Old man?"

Orochimaru was stunned at first, then smiled: "You don't have to thank me for this. Let the teacher die as a hero of Konoha is my last gift as a disciple."

"You don't want the Third Hokage teacher to be old and die in a hospital bed."

"For a ninja, dying of old age is a torture. The ninja's belonging can only be on the battlefield, ending his life in a vigorous way."

What Orochimaru said makes some sense, but this is not a reason to be an enemy of the Third Hokage.

Jiraiya said loudly to Orochimaru:

"It may be the old man's wish to die in battle, but he would not like to see his favorite disciple and closest old friend plotting against him. This is not a glorious way to die. He died in a conspiracy."

"Jiraiya... I don't quite understand what you are saying?"

Orochimaru tilted his head and said with some doubt: "I left Konoha, so it is normal for the enemy of Konoha Ninja Village to use any means. You are still as naive as you were back then."

"I am naive?" Jiraiya snorted coldly, and then pounced on Orochimaru.

When Orochimaru saw Jiraiya pounced on him, he quickly raised the Kusanagi sword to resist. He felt that Jiraiya tonight was stronger than before, and his body was full of the breath of natural energy. Maybe he had turned on the Sage Mode.

The Sage Mode was an ability that he could not reach, and it was also the ultimate form of the curse seal.

If he did not deal with it carefully, he would most likely die in Jiraiya's hands tonight, unless he used the Impure World Reincarnation to summon the First and Second Generation Hokage.

But after using the first and second generation Hokage last time, Orochimaru decided not to use the Impure World Reincarnation Technique easily in the future, especially the Impure World First and Second Generation Hokage.

He felt that the First Generation Hokage could get rid of the shackles of the Command Spell at any time and become a free Impure World Body.

Once the Impure World First and Second Generation Hokage were out of control, he couldn't imagine how miserable his future life would be. He didn't want to be hunted down by these two Hokage for the rest of his life.

Looking at the Konoha ninjas who were walking towards him, Danzo felt that something was wrong.

Shouldn't these jonins go to support Jiraiya? Why were they walking towards him, and there was a hint of murderous intent in their eyes.

After getting rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind, Danzo said to the jonin in front of him:

"I am not injured and do not need your protection. You should go to support Jiraiya first. We must take down Orochimaru this time."

"Don't worry about Orochimaru's identity. After killing Hiruzen, he is no longer a Konoha ninja."

After hearing Danzo's words, the Konoha jonin did not react much. They looked at Danzo coldly. Their eyes had already explained their attitude. They did not trust Danzo.

"What are you going to do?"

Danzo was a little panicked, and his voice became more and more urgent. With strong anxiety and uneasiness, he said loudly:

"I am the advisory elder of Konoha. Do you want to betray the village? Or are you all spies planted in the village by Orochimaru?"

Faced with Danzo's questioning and accusations, the jonin class, who were already unhappy with Danzo, firmly stood on Jiraiya's side and looked at Danzo in unison.

Kakashi said straight to the point:

"Elder Danzo, your crime has been exposed. The conspiracy you secretly planned has been discovered by Lord Jiraiya. Now we are here to arrest you."

"You can choose to fight us, or you can continue to resist."

"But if you choose the latter, we won't let you continue to be decent. Considering your age, we really don't want you to suffer too much."

"What conspiracy? You, a bunch of Orochimaru's spies, are framing me."

Danzo said angrily, pointing at Kakashi and said, "Kakashi, you must have bewitched Jiraiya to take revenge on me!"

Kakashi said calmly:

"Really? I have always wanted to take revenge on Elder Danzo, but it should be you who gave the order to kill me to Tenzo."

"If it weren't for the Third Generation, I would have been killed by my Sharingan."

"You keep slandering me, I have never given such an order..."

Danzo's eyes were full of shock. He couldn't believe that Kakashi dared to tell what happened back then. What right did you, a small elite jonin, have to question yourself who holds the power of the root.

Thinking of this, Danzo suddenly looked at Jiraiya in the distance and understood many things immediately.

Kakashi didn't dare to expose what happened back then because he didn't have enough prestige and power in the village, but if he got Jiraiya's permission, the situation would be different.

Although Jiraiya didn't control a violent department like the Root Organization.

But with the identity of a disciple of the Hokage and a Sannin, he was able to attract a large number of ninjas to serve him. This is the capital that Jiraiya has accumulated over the years.

Jiraiya, Jiraiya, you are really hiding it.

On the surface, he recommended Tsunade to become the fifth generation Hokage, but in fact he wanted to become the Hokage himself, deliberately making Tsunade embarrassed in front of everyone to reduce her impression.

He also asked Kakashi to dig out his own black material in the past and let himself withdraw from the Hokage election.

In just a few steps, he defeated all the opponents and took the position of the fifth generation Hokage. He is worthy of being the Sannin who has stayed with Sarutobi Hiruzen the longest, and his mind is as insidious as Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen won the position of Hokage by pretending in front of Mr. Tobirama.

However, this method is like overthrowing me, but it is still a little lacking. Jiraiya should not think that he did not consider the unexpected situation when he made a plan with Orochimaru.

In order to prevent Orochimaru from changing sides at the last minute, he deployed a large number of Root ninjas nearby.

With just one order, the situation will be reversed in an instant if Kakashi, who was misleading people, is taken down. The other centrists will only stand by and watch, and will not take action against him.
