Start with physical skills and conquer the world

On the contrary, the third generation is now the age with the richest experience and means. Different from being beaten by Orochimaru when he was seventy years old,

The current third generation, with his rich experience and huge accumulation of spells, and without completely degraded physical reactions, is enough for him to cope with any situation.

Later, when Orochimaru defected, the Third Generation was really betrayed.

Just as Orochimaru said later when Konoha collapsed the plan, if the third generation really faced him when he was young and developed into a complete body, there is a high probability that Orochimaru would not be a match.

Seeing Jiraiya he hesitated to speak, and seemed to want to persuade him,

Sandai became a little impatient and handed him an information scroll.

"Take a look, Jiraiya..."

Jiraiya reluctantly took the scroll and read the information carefully.

After a few quick glances, Jiraiya frowned.

"Has the cloud ninja made any move?"

What was clearly written on the intelligence scroll was that the Cloud Ninja had sent some elite teams to operate on the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Thunder, and even destroyed many military strongholds in Konoha.

He looks like he is ready to start a war with you,

"That's right..."

The third generation is also very solemn,

"The Kumo ninja has taken the initiative to attack our Konoha..."

"It's equivalent to declaring war..."

"It's just that we didn't send a large force to attack..."

Jiraiya shook his head and analyzed.

"The Kumo ninja will not attack on a large scale,"

He has experienced several large-scale wars and also has an unusual military vision.

"It's different from the impoverished and desperate Sand ninja, and the Kirist ninja who is isolated overseas..."

"Whether it's an Iwa ninja or a Kumo ninja, you have to guard against the other party stabbing you in the back..."

"They both have to be wary of each other..."

"Even if it's our Konoha, they won't use all their strength to invade,"

"At most, it's just adding insult to injury or watching the fire from the other side,"

The third generation nodded, he also held the same view as Jiraiya,

The Iwa Ninja and the Kumo Ninja are feuding. Once one side falls into the quagmire of war, the other side will not hesitate to crush it into pieces.

"So I plan to send you and Minato there..."

The third generation said this, the truth is like this, but Konoha cannot show weakness, otherwise once it shows its weak posture,

The old enemies Iwa Ninja and Kumo Ninja wouldn't mind joining forces to cut off a piece of flesh from Konoha.

"There is no need to confront them head-on,"

"Just shock and repel the cloud ninja,"

Jiraiya knew in his heart that this was the third generation trying to build momentum for Minato, so that Minato could defend the easier job of Kumo ninja.

With the strength of Minato and Jiraiya, unless the top brass of the Kumo ninjas come together, they can easily repel the elite troops of the Kumo ninjas that break into the Fire Country.

In this way, Namikaze Minato's reputation can be spread,

'Orochimaru...was given up...'

Jiraiya sighed in his heart,

If the third generation chose Orochimaru, then it should be Orochimaru who is sent to Kumo Ninja now.

Although he had expected it, when he really knew the news, Jiraiya could only sigh that things are different and people are different.

Apparently Konoha also noticed something was wrong with Orochimaru, and has been studying various taboo techniques since World War II.

Although with the support of Danzo, the senior officials turned a blind eye, seeing that Orochimaru's temperament was getting darker and he was becoming more and more fanatical about forbidden arts,

The senior officials knew that it was impossible for them to choose such a person to be Hokage, as this would lead Konoha astray.

Even if this person’s previous achievements were impeccable,

Jiraiya has always been like this, knowing that the situation is getting worse, but there is nothing he can do about it.

Sometimes it is not a question of strength, but more of a question of cultural attributes.

Jiraiya is also a civilian ninja, and he has the cultural attributes of the traditional Will of Fire.

Let him be inherently weak and compromising, although he does not lack the courage and belief to burn himself at critical moments.

But when things develop to the most critical point, it is often the accumulation of things that people ignore in daily life.

And whenever he encounters people and things around him, it is very easy for him to be subtly compromised.

"Over there with Orochimaru..."

In the end, Jiraiya's affection for his old friend prevailed. Although he knew that the third generation had already made a decision, he still wanted to speak for Orochimaru.

But how come the third generation also doesn’t understand this apprentice?

Before Jiraiya could finish speaking, he waved his hand,

"Orochimaru has his own mission..."

"Narazan is the better choice over Suna Ninja..."

Jiraiya fell silent,

In the third generation's view, although the Suna ninja who had been severely injured by Nara Dan would resist fiercely,

But once an unscrupulous, powerful and experienced ninja like Orochimaru takes action, the Sand Ninja will not be able to escape defeat.

When Orochimaru's reputation grows, this is not what the Third Generation wants to see.

Maybe it was in the past, but now the third generation has better choices.

That is Minato Namikaze, a young and powerful but humble ninja.

When he becomes the fourth generation, he is much easier to control than Orochimaru, who is becoming more and more self-aware.

As for Nara Dan, during the war, the Kingdom of Wind will be in ever-changing forms. If you give him a big pot, the merits and demerits will be equalized.

Coupled with Tsunade's bond, this new taijutsu ninja will naturally not become big.

After Jiraiya and the third generation had a detailed chat about the specific matters of the Kumo ninja,

Seeing that he could not achieve his goal, Jiraiya had no choice but to resign.

.....................

But what Jiraiya didn't know was that not long after he left,

Two people he cared about came to the Hokage's office,

"Third generation sir..."

"Old man..."

Nara Dan and Tsunade both looked at each other in surprise,

"Why are you here?"

Tsunade looked surprised, why did she see this annoying guy again?

Nara Suan shrugged upon seeing this. How did he know? Naturally, Sandai invited him over because he had something to do.

Then at the same time, the two of them looked at the third generation,

Obviously these were two people invited by Hiruzen Sarutobi at the same time. I don't know what they had in mind.

Sandai said with a smile on his face,

"I'll call you two over this time,"

"It was the elders who put forward an opinion..."

"After we discussed it, we came to a decision,"

"Think it's feasible."

The third generation paused and looked at Nara Dan and Tsunade.

"You two are the executors."

Nara raised his eyebrows, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in the third generation gourd.

Fortunately, there were people at the scene who were much more anxious than him.

"Old man!"

Tsunade was never polite to the third generation, so she slapped her hand on the table.

"What other crooked idea are you trying to make?!"

"Didn't we agree on it last time?"

"Except for war logistics,"

"Don't come to me for anything?!"

The third generation has long been accustomed to Tsunade's violent temper, or it doesn't matter that he is not used to it.

"Don't worry, Tsunade..."

"Listen to me."

The third generation paused and spoke out the so-called resolution of the elders group.

"Because of your and Duan's excellent performance in physical skills,"

"I decided to change my previous neglect of ninja taijutsu training,"

"We decided to make further investments in the popularization of taijutsu and research and development,"

"Establish a physical arts research and development department,"

"The main task is to develop and research taijutsu-related techniques and training methods,"

"Summarize a set of training rules for the ninja human body and popularize them in ninja schools."

"As well as the development of medicinal materials and drugs that have the potential to nourish and stimulate the human body,"

Sandaime said, pointing to Nara Dan,

"Dan, you are now the number one person in Konoha and even the ninja world in Taijutsu,"

"We have decided that you will serve as the director of the Taijutsu Research and Development Department,"

"Tsunade, you are also good at medical ninjutsu and human body knowledge,"

"But you are in a special situation now, so just feel aggrieved and serve as deputy minister,"

“This is the new resolution that the elders and I discussed,”

"I wonder if you have any comments or suggestions,"

The third generation said that he would listen to the opinions, but his eyes were only looking at Tsunade.

Because he knew that this department’s suggestion would be of no harm to Narazan, and Narazan would not refuse it.

Regardless of the actual interests of Nara Dan, including collecting various secret techniques of the ninja world in the name of developing and researching taijutsu,

Or they may collect some precious medicinal materials and materials under the guise of public benefit,

Even being more direct and directly embezzling Konoha's funds is not impossible.

After all, Konoha is a deformed centralized organization. There is no anti-corruption bureau. Those high-level officials are all full of money and full of oil.

I don't see anyone taking charge of it. After all, the village here is governed not by rules and regulations, but by the will of fire.

The only concern is that Tsunade's temperament is not stable right now, and she still has to use some means to get her to do things.

Just like the last time the Third Generation persuaded Tsunade to serve as logistics on the battlefield of the Kingdom of Wind, the Third Generation also used roundabout tactics.

Sure enough, before Narazan could express his opinion, Tsunade frowned and her voice was so hot that it almost caused the Hokage's office to collapse.

"What kind of broken department?"

"Why do you want me to be the deputy minister again?!"

"Whoever likes it should be..."

"It's not my fault anyway!"

Seeing Tsunade's clear resistance, the third generation was not in a hurry.

He only said one sentence,

"The funds for the Taishu Development and Research Department are the same as those of the Medical Department."

"Once there are any results, the funding can be increased..."

"Tsunade, what do you think?"

"..."

Tsunade fell silent for a moment. The anger she felt just now seemed to be non-existent. It was instantly extinguished by Sandai's words.

Although Tsunade is the princess of the Senju clan and one of the three ninjas, she should not be short of money.

But that’s according to common sense,

Who would have known that Tsunade had an unreasonable gambling hobby?

Considering Tsunade's obsession with gambling and her outrageous gambling luck, no amount of assets left by the Senju clan would be enough to defeat her.

As a ninja, the mission bounty was lost early.

Tsunade's current situation is indeed embarrassing. She needs to maintain her gambling and alcohol consumption, but at the same time she owes a lot of debt.

With Tsunade's gambling luck and irritable personality, basically no loan sharks are willing to lend her money.

Even if Jiraiya follows her behind and pays the debt, it will be a drop in the bucket.

The third generation's current intention is very obvious. As long as Tsunade is willing to serve as the deputy minister of this new department,

The funds of this department are at her disposal to a certain extent.
