In Naruto's office, looking at Jiraiya's figure moving away through the window, Naruto couldn't help but sigh.

"What's the sigh?" Tsunade asked looking at him.

"Tsunade, do you think he can get Orochimaru back?" Natsuki retracted her gaze and turned to her side and asked without answering.

"So what if you chase it back, so what if you can't catch it back?" Tsunade shook her head and hugged her arm, creating a striking and stunning scenery. Even though it was already possessed by Natsuki, she still couldn't help but pay attention to the past.

Wanmeng's eyes were turned on by Natsuki with a look, Tsunade continued: "Orochimaru has been the best among the three of us since he was a child. Whether it is the speed of learning ninjutsu or the decisiveness of encountering problems on the battlefield, he has done better than Jiraiya and me."

"Don't belittle yourself. Your medical ninjutsu and Jiraiya's sage mode are also worthy of praise." Natsuki interrupted.

"This is natural." Tsunade nodded proudly but confidently, and said, "And only in terms of combat strength, Jiraiya, who has learned the Myoki Mountain Immortal Mode, has become stronger. Although Orochimaru has tried it and left a mark on his body, he did not get the recognition of the White Snake Immortal and failed. On the contrary, Jiraiya, who has always been inconspicuous, has accumulated strength, especially after learning the Immortal Mode, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds. He was usually the one who was responsible for the main attack on the battlefield."

"It's just that the strength has nothing to do with the current situation, right?" Natsuki heard the implicit sound from Tsunade's tone.

Tsunade raised her eyebrows, smiled at Natsuki who could understand her, and nodded, "Orochimaru's personality has always been radical. In a battle in the past, Jiraiya was seriously injured, and we were blocked in a cave by the enemy. The best way at that time was to abandon Jiraiya. I and Orchimaru looked for another chance, and this method was that Orchimaru had the first thought of it and planned to put it into practice."

"What is the final result?" Xia Shu asked curiously.

"Just while hesitating, the companions who came to support found us." Tsunade walked to the window, leaned her shoulder against the window, looked at the figure disappearing from a distance, and the light of memories flashed in her apricot eyes, sighed: "At that time, Orochimaru's expression was very interesting, shocked, regretful, and self-blame, intertwined in his eyes, but he could feel that he was very grateful to be relieved."

"Although he was already covered in cold breath when I came into contact with Orochimaru, I could probably imagine what the genius ninja who was highly anticipated by the third generation of the Meta." Natsuki sighed with regret: "If Minato did not emerge from the sky, Orochimaru might have become the fourth-generation Hokage of Konoha Village under various realistic factors. If he shouldered the heavy responsibility of protecting Konoha Village, he might not have become what he is today."

"Maybe, but it's just maybe." Tsunade shook her head, sighing and helpless.

"Indeed." Natsuki nodded.

Sarutobi Hinata abdicated that year was because he needed to be responsible for several defeats during the war and the trauma suffered by Konoha. In this way, his philosophy continued to lead the direction of Konoha Village.

Of course, Danzo also played a role in promoting public opinion. Although he could not become a Naruto when walking in the dark, Orochimaru, who colluded with him, was Masaomi and a highly popular candidate at the time.

However, at that time, Sarutobi Hinazun had already seen that Orochimaru had conflicts and conflicts with his warm ideas, so even if there was no Huo Feng Mizuno, there would inevitably be others, at least Jirai was a good choice.

Although Jiraiya refused to serve as the Naruto in the original work, if the request was made by Sarutobi Hinazo and forced him with responsibility, he would undoubtedly agree with his personality in the end.

"Okay, don't disturb my office here." Tsunade waved her hand, sat on the chair and continued to process the documents, and said casually: "By the way, remember to go home for dinner in the evening."

"Hmm? OK." Xia Shu was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It was not that he had thought of what happened after the meal, but that his ordinary but warm feeling made him feel very comfortable.

...

A few days later, Yumiao Ryuma completed the task and returned to Konoha Village. He was accompanied by an old man who looked ordinary.

In the root base, Natsuki was carrying a brush to reply to the root ninja who was in the Kingdom of Sichuan.

Just yesterday afternoon, the ninja village, which was barely formed by wandering ninjas, was suddenly attacked by Sand Ninjas. It is not difficult to imagine that the attack was premeditated.

However, as the buffer zone between the wind and fire, even if it is a truce and peace period, both sides have not stopped paying attention to the situation of the country of Sichuan. After all, the signs of war have always been to see the big ones from the small. If the enemy has actions and intentions, they only need to observe the surrounding trends to make inferences and predictions, which is convenient for preventing and responding at the fastest speed.

In fact, Konoha Village has also noticed the recent situation in Kawano Country, but he suppressed it. Therefore, he had already expected and arranged responses to the Sand Village attack on the ninja village that Kawano Country had just been established. At this moment, it was just starting those arrangements.

The Kingdom of Sichuan is just a small problem. The main reason for this is that it will take a long time to recover from the Sand Village. In contrast, Yun Hidden Village and Yan Hidden Village are the existences that need to be treated with caution.

The Genji Ninja who was obedient outside the door could send the secret letter away. Natsuki took out the map that he had been on the table recently. When he lifted up his brush and hung it above Yunxiu Village, the door was gently knocked.

"Say." Xia Shutou didn't raise his head.

The door was pushed open a gap, and a root ninja knelt on one knee and said respectfully: "Sir Natsuki, the oil girl Ryuma has returned from completing the mission."

"One person or two?" Xia Shu narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his head and looked at the crack in the door.

"Two." The root ninja answered truthfully.

"Okay, let him take people to wait for me." After saying that, Xia Shu's eyes fell, and chuckled and drew two strokes on Yunyin Village on the map to form a black fork.

The root ninja outside the door responded and left immediately.

"Has I caught it once? It was a bit beyond my expectations." Natsuki put down his brush, put the documents on the table, lifted up his coat and put it on his body, walked towards the door, and smiled as he walked, "But that's good. When Yun Yin takes action against the Hinaga clan in the future, I will be caught by me when I take the opportunity to attack Yun Yin, I can also have an insider in Yun Yin Village. With his disguise and infiltrating level, ordinary root ninjas are really not comparable to those."

Thinking of this, Xia Shu came to the place where the oil girl Longma was waiting and saw the old man he specially sent someone to look for.
