"Nara-sensei has recognized you Kakashi..."

"Even if you are in another team, you are still Mr. Nara's student..."

"For Nara-sensei, this will never change..."

Hinata Naname said this in a more explicit way. Obviously she knew clearly that the three people present, including Ino Izaya,

They are all surrounded by Nara Dan,

So no matter what situation he is reduced to, Nara Dan will not stand idly by with his domineering character.

Kakashi nodded when he heard this, it was indeed the case, and most of the stones in his heart were relieved.

As long as Mr. Nara still recognizes him and is willing to teach him,

To him, it's the same everywhere.

"That's right!"

Ino Izaya also said the same,

"Kakashi, you don't have to worry about anything else,"

"You just need to worry about it after you leave."

"I will absorb the essence of the sun and the moon under Mr. Nara. I will surpass you immediately."

"cut..."

Hinata Naname looked at Ino Izaya with disdain,

"I want to surpass Kakashi..."

"You have to be able to beat me first!"

When Ino Rinya heard this, his expression froze and he stopped talking.

Although he has made rapid progress recently, Hinata Naname is not waiting for him at the same place.

With his advanced soft fist skills, Ino Izaya could only be abused most of the time.

...........

And on the other side,

Jiraiya has been in the village during this time, drinking with Tsunade.

Today is no exception,

But the exception is that Nara Dan is back today,

This gave the two people who usually had nothing to say a new topic of conversation.

"Have you heard the news about Nara Dan?"

Jiraiya took a sip of sake,

As for wine, although Jiraiya is not the best, he does not reject it either.

"What news are you referring to?"

Tsunade smiled with a blush from drinking, as if she didn't care at all,

"You mean he killed seven in and seven out of Sand Ninja?"

"Or did you die of serious injuries and have an arm chopped off by Chiyo?"

"...."

Jiraiya paused and said helplessly,

"You know what I'm talking about..."

Seeing that Tsunade was pretending to be confused again and obviously didn't want to get involved in anything related to Konoha,

The news that Jiraiya was referring to was naturally the news that Suna Ninja first spread.

Rather than the series of outrageous rumors that spread after Nara returned to the village.

This kind of trick is fine for deceiving the masses, but Jiraiya and Tsunade, who are at the core of Konoha or have been at the core of Konoha, can see through it at a glance.

"hehe...."

Tsunade had disdain on her face,

She is similar to Nara Sudan in her attitude towards politics.

It can exist, but it is not necessary,

The foundation of Konoha's foothold in the ninja world is the huge resources and the cohesion of the will of fire.

Rather than the so-called balancing act of politicians,

"It's just a trick used by Sand Ninja to flatter and kill..."

"But..."

"Those old guys just do this!"

"The one who knows you best is your enemy..."

"Instead of teammates...."

Tsunade poured herself another glass of wine, and there was something in her words,

Jiraiya could only smile bitterly after hearing this.

Tsunade's words were aimed at no one else but himself,

In fact, in terms of understanding Tsunade, Jiraiya is not as good as Nara Dan, who Tsunade has never dealt with.

No matter how superior her title or strength, Tsunade is ultimately a woman.

What she has always needed is emotional support and sustenance, not the idea that Konoha is king and the world is unified.

This can be seen from the importance she attaches to Kato Dan and her younger brother,

Jiraiya, on the other hand, believes that emotional happiness should not be what Konoha ninjas pursue, at least not what he should pursue.

What he pursues is world peace and the unity of the ninja world.

This is also the fundamental reason why Jiraiya cannot express his feelings to Tsunade, or in other words, the fundamental reason why Tsunade despises Jiraiya.

In other words, Jiraiya also knew about this, but there was no way to change it.

This is determined by each person’s cultural attributes and does not depend on one’s own consciousness.

"What do you think the news from the Sand Ninja..."

"How credible is it?"

Jiraiya laughed at Tsunade's remarks about Konoha's higher-ups.

This is not his focus,

Instead, I am more concerned about Nara Dan's strength.

Or in other words, the dangers of Nara Sudan,

"In Konoha, I have officially fought against him..."

Tsunade rolled her eyes at Jiraiya, looking like she didn't want to talk.

"You are the only one..."

"I am a loser..."

"How can I see..."

"Let's watch while drinking..."

Jiraiya was silent for a moment after hearing this. Tsunade was right. Whether the rumors were true or not, he already had his own score in mind.

But on the one hand, he wanted to get a more accurate judgment from Tsunade, on the other hand, he was unwilling to face this fact.

That means Nara Dan's strength has exceeded the conventional ninja ceiling.

Yes, in Jiraiya's estimation, based on his experience of fighting against Nara, the news spread by the Suna Ninja might be flattering.

But most of the achievements are most likely true.

'In my normal state...'

‘Perhaps we can design a battle plan against Narazan in advance...’

'Delaying him in a short period of time is not a problem...'

'But the most terrifying thing about Narazan is not his impeccable taijutsu training...'

'Or the bottomless physical strength...'

'The most terrifying thing is the kind of combat literacy that sees everything and controls everything in battle...'

'The kind based on a perfect understanding of the human body, skilled combat experience and an incredibly accurate sixth sense...'
