Chapter 27: 2
Chapter 172 Disagreement among the Three Ninjas
Uchiha Fugaku was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Water Country battlefield. The Uchiha clan directly sent out 100 ninjas, 50 guards, and 50 family ninjas. In addition to the Uchiha clan, the Hyuga clan also sent out a lot of people. After all, the Byakugan is the nemesis of the Kirigakure ninjas. Except
for a few powerful Kirigakure jonins who can use chakra to completely cover their bodies in the Kirigakure technique, other Kirigakure ninjas cannot do this; assassination techniques below the jonin level are completely useless in front of the Byakugan. Regarding
the Uchiha clan's strong request to go to war, the ninjas who did not see the doorway in it had a lot of good feelings for the Uchiha clan. They rushed to contribute to the village when the war came, which deserved their praise, although the guards' attitude of enforcing the law in the village was not very pleasing.
Although the Kirigakure harassed the border and the possibility of war was solved, it did not achieve Sarutobi Hiruzen's goal, which made his face a little deep.
After the meeting of the jonin ended, Jiraiya went straight to Orochimaru, put his arm around his shoulders and said with a smile: "Orochimaru, how about going out for a drink together? Does Tsunade want to come?"
Hearing about drinking, Tsunade licked her red lips, and then asked vigilantly: "You're the one who pays, Jiraiya!"
Jiraiya asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Aren't you the ones who paid to celebrate my victorious return?"
"Are you looking for a fight? Who among the three of us didn't return victorious? It's just that you came back the slowest, so this time it's decided that you will pay!"
Tsunade raised her fist to intimidate Jiraiya, and then put the affairs accumulated in the morning behind her, and directed Jiraiya and Orochimaru and said: "It's decided, let's go to the first izakaya."
This izakaya is Kahn's store. It has three floors and is luxuriously decorated. There are a wide variety of wines. In addition to the izakaya's own side dishes, there are many food houses around.
The consumption is very high. If Tsunade has such a big alcohol tolerance, even Jiraiya would feel a little sad if she drank it all at once. Although he planned to write a novel, he could not get out of the shadow of Kahn, and all the money was returned by the publisher.
Now his income depends entirely on the accumulation of mission fees, but Jiraiya often goes to izakayas and custom shops at his own expense to gather information, resulting in not much savings from mission fees.
"Then have a drink. There are other things to do in the afternoon. Don't drink too much,"
Jiraiya said with a heartache. He should wait until Tsunade is far away before calling Orochimaru.
After arriving at the izakaya, Jiraiya took over the job of taking orders. The prices here are not low. If Tsunade comes, his wallet will be thinner.
"This, this, and this, and two more bottles of shochu."
After seeing what Jiraiya ordered, Tsunade grabbed the menu and said dissatisfiedly: "Jiraiya, you are too stingy. This is to celebrate your victory and return. You are really too stingy."
Then Tsunade ordered a bunch of things. Judging from the quantity, it seems that she is going to solve the dinner problem at the same time. Jiraiya was heartbroken for a long time. He even thought of running away from the bill; but if he ran away from Tsunade's bill, he would definitely be hospitalized in the end. After weighing the pros and cons, Jiraiya could only bleed heavily once.
When the shochu and side dishes were served, Jiraiya and Tsunade clinked glasses for a few times, and then they felt that although the food here was a bit expensive, it was indeed better than the shochu in other places.
After Orochimaru drank two cups, he spoke directly to Jiraiya: "Jiraiya, don't beat around the bush. Just ask what you want to ask. You are the worst in terms of alcohol tolerance."
"That's because Tsunade and I never use chakra to drive away alcohol. If we really compete in alcohol tolerance, we are not sure who will win or lose."
Jiraiya looked indignant, and then he became a little more serious. There was really no need for them to beat around the bush.
"Orochimaru, you want to run for the fourth Hokage? Why? From what I know about you, you don't seem to care about the Hokage."
Orochimaru chuckled twice and said to Jiraiya: "Jiraiya, do you really know me well? Isn't the Hokage the goal of every Konoha ninja? And do you know the Hokage? Why can't I run for the Hokage?"
These questions startled Jiraiya. He was stunned with the wine glass in his hand, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
At this time, Tsunade heard what the two were saying and moved the side dishes and shochu to her side; anyway, she was not very interested in Hokage, and if Nawaki had not given up the Fourth Hokage himself, she might have participated.
"Hokage is the hope of the entire village. He should be willing to sacrifice for the village at critical moments. Orochimaru, you are an excellent ninja, but you lack the spirit to become a Hokage, whether you are the first or second generation."
Orochimaru interrupted Jiraiya and said, "I will eliminate the existence that threatens Konoha in advance. As long as there is no enemy, there is no need for the Hokage to sacrifice. Jiraiya, if the Hokage needs to sacrifice, it means you lack the ability. Tsunade, you don't have to glare at me. Even if you are angry, you can't change my mind."
"Prepare for a rainy day and strangle the crisis before it occurs, instead of waiting for the crisis to grow enough to threaten yourself before taking action. If there is only one ninja village or one country left, Konoha will not need a war. Of course, it is difficult for me to do this alone, but I can lay the foundation for Konoha in ten years, and it will be carried forward after Rope Tree takes over."
After hearing this, Tsunade said angrily with a flushed face, "Orochimaru, what ideas have you instilled in Rope Tree!"
"Tsunade, Nawaki has grown up. Compared to the Shodaime, he agrees more with the Second Hokage's philosophy."
Orochimaru's words made Tsunade pause, and then she realized that Nawaki is now an adult. After exerting all his strength in the battlefield of the Land of Hot Water, he is more powerful than her and is no longer the child who needs her care.
"This is a war! Orochimaru, Konoha has paid the efforts of generations of predecessors to maintain peace. You shouldn't..."
"Jiraiya, have you been brainwashed?" Orochimaru said impatiently. He remembered that Kahn had told him the word "brainwashing", which was the most suitable word for Jiraiya's current situation.
"Why are all your words right? And what I did was wrong? If that's the case, then there's nothing to say between us. Let's do it on our own."
After that, Orochimaru got up and left. Jiraiya also ignored him. He felt that Orochimaru not only lacked the spirit of a Hokage, but would also bring Konoha and the entire ninja world into a war.
Jiraiya was deeply influenced by the Third Hokage after graduation, and then trained in Myoboku Mountain for several years; Sarutobi Hiruzen and Myoboku Mountain both taught Jiraiya to gain strength. Jiraiya was the weakest person in the team and caught up with Tsunade and Orochimaru. Naturally, he was very grateful to them.
Therefore, he believed in the words of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Myoboku Mountain, and believed in the prophecy of Myoboku Mountain.
However, he failed to convince Orochimaru, so Jiraiya turned to Tsunade and asked directly: "Tsunade, do you also want to watch Konoha fall into war?"
Tsunade said unhappily: "Jiraiya, do you think I can convince Orochimaru?" Jiraiya
also persuaded unwillingly: "Then come to help me... No, come to help Minato, his character and ability are the best ninjas, I believe he is the most suitable ninja to become Hokage."
"I see you are really drunk, Nawaki also wants to be Hokage, I leave my brother alone to support Namikaze Minato, let's not talk about other things about Orochimaru, but you are really a fool!" Tsunade
also felt that Jiraiya was too stupid, saying some unrealistic words, so she called the waiter in the store, packed a bunch of side dishes and a few bottles of good shochu, and went home to drink directly. Seeing this, Jiraiya
was directly depressed. He spent money but still didn't achieve his goal. Just now, because of his anger, he forgot to ask for information from Orochimaru, and in the end, Tsunade took away so much expensive shochu.
"It seems like there is nothing to feel?"
Kushina watched Kahn fiddle with the new residence for a long time, and finally stood in the distance to give the answer after thinking for a while.
"No feeling? It stands to reason that no matter how strong or weak the ninja is, there should be an impact. Take off the magic accessories on your body and give them to me, and then feel it again."
Before Kahn finished speaking, he noticed the magic accessories on Kushina's body, and then asked her to take them off and feel the new home that was cast with the enhanced Muggle Repelling Spell again.
This time Kushina frowned slightly, and only after using the perception ninjutsu could she barely find the new home; then Kushina half-jumped in front of Kahn and said excitedly: "It's amazing that such a large yard can be made difficult to detect."
Kahn smiled and said: "This is nothing, when I set up magic in this area, even the perception ninja will find it difficult to detect the specific location."
Use alchemy to solidify the enhanced Muggle Repelling Spell on the magic items, and then bury them deep underground near the new home to let them affect each other, even the perception ninjutsu of the ninja will be affected.
After hearing this, Kushina smiled and said, "Then I will set up a barrier so that even the White Eyes can't see through it." However, Kushina blushed suddenly after she finished speaking. She thought of what Kahn said to her a few days ago, and she felt that she was anxious just now.
"By the way, can I bring other people with me in the future?"
Kushina knew that Kahn would be away for a while, but she didn't know what Kahn was going to do. She just wanted to invite friends like Mikoto to her home when Kahn was away.
"Of course, you, the hostess, can decide on this little thing by yourself; I will leave you a few more magic accessories that can ignore the Muggle Repelling Spell, and you can use them when the time comes."
Kahn's words immediately made Kushina feel good. She liked the word hostess; now the new home has been built for more than half, covering an area of more than 700 square meters, which is unique in Konoha.
In addition, the surrounding environment has been transformed. Kushina has already imagined the scene of training children nearby in the future.
Kushina hugged Kahn's arm, letting her plumpness be squeezed, and then suddenly thought: "By the way, Mikoto has been a little worried about her husband recently. Is the Water Country battlefield dangerous?"
"It should be fine, don't worry, Uchiha Fugaku is also an outstanding ninja."
After hearing Uchiha Fugaku, Kahn suddenly thought of Kakashi's Sharingan, which can evolve into Kamui. Among the many Mangekyo abilities, Kahn values Kamui the most.
If there is a chance, he will definitely get these eyes!
