Konoha: Be cautious from Hinata

The war is over.

Just like the sudden war, the several-year war between Kumogakure and Konoha also ended quietly.

After showing his true potential and realizing that continuing would only hurt both sides, Kumogakure withdrew his troops in the Land of Fire and sent an envoy to express his wish for peace talks.

For Konoha today, the earlier the peace talks are carried out, the better. However, the location of the peace talks is chosen to be in Konoha, not Kumogakure.

The reason is also very simple. The second Hokage once died during the peace talks. This is a lesson learned from the past.

Today's Konoha can no longer afford to lose another Hokage.

And Kumogakure is also afraid of Konoha, so it's hard to say whether the Fourth Raikage will come.

Inside the Konoha Conference Room.

After dismissing the remaining advisors and elders, the third generation looked at his disciple, white-haired Jiraiya.

After learning that the war broke out, Jiraiya went directly to the front line of the war to assist his companions in the village. However, other than supporting his companions, Jiraiya did not intend to get close to him.

When looking at myself, there is always a slight estrangement, and I hesitate to speak.

Is it because he failed to save Minato, or is it because he occupies the position of Hokage?

But if you are not satisfied with your position as Hokage, you will take the position yourself and think about recovering Tsunade and Orochimaru all day long.

After pondering for a long time, Sandai took the initiative to break the silence, but all they talked about was the village and the mission.

"Jiraiya, how is the investigation on the masked man going?"

Jiraiya shook his head. He had traveled almost half of the ninja world, but he had not heard any news about the masked man. Instead of being accompanied by chaotic order, many mercenary organizations appeared.

He didn't pay much attention to those mercenary organizations composed of wandering ninjas.

He spent most of his time searching for Orochimaru and the child of prophecy, but he still couldn't find the child of destiny with sky-blue eyes who could save the world.

"Old man, is there no progress on your end?" Jiraiya asked as if he was remembering something.

The third generation nodded. There was indeed no progress on his side. On the contrary, Danzo's roots sent relevant information from time to time. The double-edged sword of the roots was quite easy to use.

"Kaleidoscope and Wood Release, Minato is really a pity."

Thinking of the masked man, Jiraiya sighed. He originally wanted to rush back that day, but discovered the whereabouts of Orochimaru, so he hurried over to investigate, wasting the opportunity by going back and forth.

When he came back, he heard the news of Minato and Kushina's death.

After a pause, the third generation slowly said: "Jiraiya, in fact, during Orochimaru's experiment, a child survived. His name is Yamato, who can also use Wood Release, but the scale of Wood Release is far less than what Minato described."

"Really..." Jiraiya did not regain his energy and walked towards the meeting room.

"Where are you going?" Sandai asked, looking at Jiraiya's back.

Jiraiya turned around and said, "I just want to see Minato and Kushina... Also, how are their children doing now?"

"Don't worry, Naruto's life is very good. I have sent ANBU to protect him secretly, and the living expenses have been paid to him on time. I can't do much else."

"That's good..." Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief. With the third generation taking care of him personally, he didn't have to worry too much.

Shortly after Jiraiya left, Sandai lit his pipe and smoked it vigorously.

Then he took out a medical report from the drawer. The confidentiality level of this report was S level. Only he had the authority to access it. There were only two names of ninjas on the medical report.

They are Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina. After three years, they still have no signs of waking up and rely on nutrient solution every day to survive.

According to the medical ninja, they have become vegetative and may sleep forever.

But the third generation clearly understood that the reason why they could not wake up was because of their souls. Because of the use of corpse ghost sealing, their souls fell into the hands of the God of Death. Their souls could not return, and their bodies naturally could not wake up.

However, facing this matter, he had no choice but to ensure their physical survival as much as possible.

However, the zombie seal that can seal the Nine Tails is a good technique.

Maybe it can be used to protect the village in the future. As Hokage, he has already had this awareness.

After ordering the ANBU to seal the top-secret report, Sandai began to think about the Kumogakure peace talks again. This peace talk, among other things, would strive for at least a twenty-year peace agreement.

At that time, new young leaves can grow into branches that support the wooden leaves.

After leaving the Hokage Building, Jiraiya immediately went to the nearby commercial street to buy commemorative flowers and sake. At this moment, he noticed a sake with a fox mark and stood there.

"It's Jiraiya-sama, do you need any help?"

The shop owner noticed this Sannin, came over and greeted him warmly.

"Is the mark on this the Nine-Tails?" Jiraiya probed cautiously. For the village residents, the night of the Nine-Tails was an unforgettable pain.

The shop owner smiled and nodded: "The one above is the Nine-tailed Demon Fox, a product of the Tailed Beast Chamber of Commerce. They call for drinking sake and smashing the bottle, which means that the Nine-tailed Demon Fox will be destroyed together."

"Tailed Beast Chamber of Commerce." Jiraiya was lost in thought. He seemed to have heard about it in nearby towns. It seemed that it was a chamber of commerce that had only emerged in recent years, and it seemed to have connections with the nobles of the Fire Country.

When Jiraiya was in a daze, the store owner did not stop selling and said, "Sir, would you like to buy a bottle? The taste is very strong and suitable for ninjas. The meaning is also very good. It is a hot seller recently."

"Then let's have a bottle..." Jiraiya couldn't bear the promotion, and then he seemed to remember something and asked: "Besides Kyuubi, are there other styles of sake? For example, One-tail and so on."

"Yes, yes," the shop owner continued, "Jiraiya-sama, do all of them have to come together?"

"Forget it, just take one." Jiraiya waved his hand. He was not short of money. He had performed many S-level missions and his net worth was measured in hundreds of millions.

Not long after, the shop owner wrapped it up and delivered it to Jiraiya, watching the latter leave with a flattering look.

Carrying a large bag of sake and looking at the various tailed beast marks on the bottle, Jiraiya couldn't help secretly thinking about the boldness and business acumen of the boss of the Chamber of Commerce.

The tailed beast that the ninjas talked about changed their color, and it actually became the label of their chamber of commerce.

If the tailed beasts find out, will those beasts become angry in shame?

After uncorking the bottle and taking a few sips, feeling the heat and sweetness in his mouth, Jiraiya staggered towards the Heroes' Cemetery.

When he is drunk, it is easier for him to speak his mind.

Speaking of which, it always feels a little strange for a master to pay homage to his disciples.
