dog in ninja world

"prodigal son?"

After hearing what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, Koharu was stunned for two seconds before going to bed, and then suddenly realized.

"You mean Jiraiya?"

She asked, if there is anyone else in Konoha who has this kind of potential and can be called a prodigal, then it is only Jiraiya who has been traveling abroad.

"That's right."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and said, the person he was talking about was naturally Jiraiya.

As the apprentice of Hiruzen Sarutobi and one of the three ninjas, Jiraiya not only has the strength to compete with the Five Kage, but also has enough prestige in the ninja world. As a member of the second and third ninja world

The Sannin who made outstanding achievements in the war and is famous among the five major countries can be said to be famous. Not to mention that he also taught a more famous Yellow Flash. As the teacher of the Fourth Hokage, he also has powerful abilities.

Jiraiya's strength and extraordinary wisdom gave Jiraiya a very high prestige in the entire Fire Nation. If he hadn't been away all the time, I'm afraid the Uchiha clan wouldn't have made any plans to rebel.

If it were Jiraiya, it would be no problem for him to directly serve as Hokage with his ability, not to mention that he would definitely be able to handle it with ease if he was just a Hokage assistant.

"But..." Zhuan Qin Xiaochun frowned and hesitated.

She didn't doubt Jiraiya's ability, but there were other issues that needed to be considered.

There was a reason why Jiraiya kept traveling and never returned to the village over the years.

Although the apparent reason was to hunt down Orochimaru who had defected, well, there was nothing wrong with this reason. Jiraiya was indeed tracking Orochimaru, but the more reason was for other purposes.

In fact, Jiraiya is one of the intelligence agents dispatched by Konoha Village, and he is also the strongest one.

Although not as good as Sarutobi Hiruzen, Jiraiya is also an all-round ninja. He is also proficient in fire escape, water escape, wind escape, earth escape, sealing technique and other ninjutsu.

The various psychic beasts of the Kiyama Contractors have a wide range of interests. Among all the ninjas in Konoha Village, Jiraiya's development is one of the most comprehensive.

A variety of abilities, which means that he can cope with any occasion and various emergencies.

With the help of Toad, he can easily sneak into places that other ninjas cannot easily enter to obtain information. Whether it is sneaking into the enemy's hinterland or spying on enemy important personnel, for Jiraiya, it is as simple as picking out a bag, and with his

With his skill, he can escape unscathed even if he is discovered, and he can almost be regarded as the biggest intelligence leader in Konoha Village.

Over the years, Jiraiya has been one of the important sources of intelligence for Konoha Village. In the days after the death of the Fourth Hokage, it was Jiraiya who had been active outside and prevented other countries from launching attacks while Konoha was weak.

The possibility of war.

After going to bed, Koharu was worried that if he recalled Jiraiya, they would lose an important intelligence source.

For this reason, even on the eve of the Uchiha clan's coup, Konoha had no intention of calling Jiraiya back.

But it's different now. Koharu, who didn't know the inside story, didn't understand, but Hiruzen Sarutobi knew very well that compared to the future development, the importance of the information Jiraiya obtained outside had become less important to Konoha with Yukimura.

Hiruzen Sarutobi now knew a lot about the specific information about the Akatsuki organization that he was currently searching for, and there was no need for Jiraiya to conduct any further unnecessary pursuits.

Since Konoha 48, when Uchiha Madara's plan began, the situation in the ninja world has become more and more dangerous. At this time, what Konoha Village no longer needs is an intelligence officer, what they need is a powerful warrior.

Therefore, they must find Jiraiya back. For Jiraiya, Sarutobi Hiruzen valued not only his ability, but also the influence Jiraiya could have on Naruto.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who has watched the plot, knows what Jiraiya means to Naruto. He also understands the importance of Naruto to Konoha, or if he wants to ensure that Konoha can have a better future,

Then Naruto and Sasuke are the current reincarnations of Indra and Asura, the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths Otsutsuki Hagoromo. These two important characters must be captured.

Although it is not necessary to place all hopes on Naruto and Sasuke, hoping that they will play a role in saving the world like in the original work, but as the duo who save the world in the original work, there is not enough care for them.

Too much.

This is also one of the reasons why Sarutobi Hiruzen is willing to negotiate peacefully with the Uchiha clan. It's okay if he didn't know about it before. Now he clearly knows that Fugaku's son Sasuke is a key figure. Of course, he will not allow it to be possible because of some misunderstandings.

It was a stupid thing to push this key figure to the other side. Although Sasuke was persuaded by Naruto at the end of the original work, Sarutobi Hiruzen could not guarantee that the historical process would develop like the original work. In any case, an alien from another world

The butterfly in the world has fluttered its wings, and no one can tell where the storm will spread.

Regarding Sasuke, you can exert influence through Itachi and Fugaku. As long as the Uchiha clan is not destroyed, then Uchiha Sasuke will not do the rebellious things in the original work. Sarutobi Hiruzen is very confident about this, even if he doesn't care.

, Itachi, the older brother, guided Sasuke onto the right path.

So what Sarutobi Hiruzen needs to consider is Naruto's question, and Yukimura has already told him the answer to this question.

Since in the original work, Naruto embarked on the right path under the guidance of Jiraiya and became a respected Hokage, then just like the original work, it would be better to arrange for Jiraiya to teach Naruto, Sarutobi Hiruzen

I believe that if Naruto and Jiraiya live together for a longer time, his development will definitely be more significant than in the original work. After all, in the original work, Naruto only followed Jiraiya for three years and then grew into an excellent ninja. If

If he had been by Jiraiya's side since the ninja school days, his development would have been greater.

In terms of education, Sarutobi Hiruzen firmly believed in Jiraiya's ability.

So, with Sarutobi Hiruzen's resolute look on his face, Koharu compromised.

"What about Tsunade?"

She asked again, since Jiraiya among the three ninjas has been called back, then the last one, Tsunade, who is also called the princess, will naturally have to make arrangements.

"Of course." Sarutobi Hiruzen replied affirmatively: "In addition to Jiraiya, I will also find someone to find Tsunade. Now the ninja world is facing a huge crisis, so we need to gather all the forces that can be united.

"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at her and said decisively.

"In fact, I plan to make her the fifth Hokage."

"The Fifth Hokage?"

When she went to bed, Koharu's expression changed slightly. She did not expect that Hiruzen Sarutobi would resign at this time. Although she also admitted that with the passage of time, the aging Hiruzen Sarutobi no longer had enough energy to deal with the upcoming crisis.

, At this moment, Konoha Village really needs a young, strong leader who is worthy of everyone's trust.

She was just curious, why not Jiraiya? If we really wanted to compare, Jiraiya who had been conscientiously contributing to Konoha over the years was more suitable for that position than the decadent Tsunade.

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could answer, she got the answer herself in the next second.

"Is it because of the future? Because Tsunade in the future has become the fifth Hokage, right?"

After going to bed, Koharu asked eagerly, if anyone could convince Sarutobi Hiruzen to choose Tsunade instead of Jiraiya, then it would be that mysterious Uchiha brat.

"Hiruzen, do you plan to always follow the trajectory that Uchiha brat saw?"

A trace of worry appeared on her face. Although everything revealed by the ANBU named Bai Ze so far is indeed accurate, there is no guarantee that other information about the future will also be completely accurate. In addition, the other party

Born in the Uchiha clan, which had some quarrel with Konoha, Koharu was always a little wary when he went to bed.

After going to bed, Koharu was a little worried that Sarutobi Hiruzen would trust too much in the so-called future and fall into the trap of others.

"Koharu..." Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at her. He was certainly not the kind of fool who would just let others lead him. He naturally had his own reasons for making such a decision.

Unlike Koharu and others who only knew fragments, Hiruzen Sarutobi saw not just a few scenes from Yukimura, but the entire development process of Naruto.

After the spiritual exchange, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew more about Yukimura's background and future situation. In addition, the various intelligence gathered from the ANBU also made it easier for him to judge the authenticity of the information.

Therefore, in terms of information alone, Sarutobi Hiruzen has a much more comprehensive understanding than Koharu, and he is somewhat more convinced of the authenticity of the future.

In addition, Tsunade and Jiraiya are both Konoha ninjas. Although the two have differences in ability, there is no loyalty problem. No matter which one of them becomes Hokage, for Konoha

There will be no loss at all.

Since both plans can be implemented, why not follow the future development direction? After all, judging from the future scene, Tsunade, the Hokage, is also quite competent.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

He replied so firmly.

"Okay..." Koharu thought for a while before going to bed. Although he felt like he was following the path designed by others, one thing was certain, that is, no matter who became the Hokage between Tsunade and Jiraiya, he would have a greater influence on Konoha.

Basically, there is no harm in it, so I didn't object anymore: "So, how do you plan to persuade Tsunade to come back?"

Although it has been decided that Tsunade will be the fifth Hokage, it is still a big problem to get Tsunade to agree to this proposal.

Unlike Jiraiya, Tsunade did not go out because she had other tasks. She left Konoha entirely because of her own reasons. Therefore, if she can't find a suitable way to convince Tsunade, then even if she wants her to become Hokage

Neither is possible.

"I have already prepared for this."

Having said this, Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a knowing smile. He stood up from his chair and looked towards the door.

At the same time, the two heard brisk yet steady footsteps coming from the corridor outside the door.

The footsteps came from far to near, and finally stopped at the door. Immediately afterwards, a similar deep voice came from outside the door.

"Hokage-sama, the guests have arrived."

"coming."

The smile on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face suddenly bloomed. He quickly came out from behind the table, walked up in a few steps, opened the door with a confused expression on Koharu's bed, and said with a smile to the person outside the door.

.

"Welcome, Your Excellency Dayan."
