Chapter 70 Konoha Mibuki
Jiraiya finally arrived and jumped off the toad's back, "Naruto, what's going on? Are you okay?" Jingzang complained, "Sir Jiraiya, why are you here now? Orochimaru and Sasuke both ran away." Jiraiya was a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, I've found the wrong direction." Jingzang complained, "I guess it must be a mistake to pick up girls!" Jiraiya hurriedly called, "How could that happen?" Naruto crawled on the ground, very sad, "I still couldn't stop him. I'm really... too weak!" Seeing Naruto who had always been strong, Jiraiya put his hand on Naruto's back, "Naruto!" Sakura said angrily, "No matter how much you cry, Sasuke won't come back. I'm here, Naruto! Let's become stronger together."
Sakura also burst into tears, feeling no less uncomfortable than Naruto. Jingzang said, "There are two dead knots to find Sasuke, one is Sasuke's wishes and the other is Orochimaru. If Sasuke is willing to come back, it will be easy. Also, only by using overwhelming strength to balance Orochimaru, can Sasuke be brought back." Jiraiya reminded, "Even if I join forces with Tsunade, I dare not say that I can completely defeat him. If you want to compete with him, there is still a long way to go." Jingzang said, "Yes, Orochimaru has another trick, which is the reincarnation of the Impure Land. If he brings all the five shadows to the Impure Land, we will have to fight."
Sai smiled, "It's almost half a year left. Four people will definitely be better than three. Please count my strength, I'm quite strong." Yamato smiled. The dark clouds dissipated and the sun shone down. Sakura said, "Thank you." Jiraiya lowered her head and picked up the first-generation necklace and hung it on Naruto's neckline again. "Don't be discouraged, Naruto. This is not like you, a big fool." Naruto was angry, "You are the big fool!" Everyone laughed, Akira pulled Naruto up, Yamato announced the end of the team, "This is just the beginning, it depends on the future."
On the way back, Jingzang went to find Youguimaru, but Youguimaru had already left and left a letter saying that he wanted to find a place to go, "a place that likes Tsubasa." Jingzang sighed, feeling quite regretful. Jiraiya claimed that he had something important, so he separated from everyone halfway. Of course, Naruto and Jingzang both believed that Jiraiya must have been going to peek at girls again, rather than having something important.
Yamato asked, "Jingzang, can you win if you want to face Sasuke alone?" Jingzang said, "I haven't finished this time, but I think it should be fine. Sasuke's ninjutsu may be very powerful, but I'm not easy to mess with. Many of my ninjutsu are useless either." Sai said, "So the key is Orochimaru." Jingzang was troubled, "Yes, Orochimaru is too powerful, and now I don't know what powerful forbidden techniques he has is useless."
Sakura was worried, "Orochimaru can hardly be killed, what should I do?" Jingzang said, "There is only one way to deal with such an enemy, that is, sealing." Naruto asked, "Is it enough as long as I learn the sealing technique? Then let the third generation grandfather teach me after I go back." Yamato said, "It's not that easy. Orchimaru himself is also a master who is proficient in sealing." Jingzang said, "Everyone works hard to become stronger first. As long as you suppress Orchimaru's power, you can save Sasuke."
The journey went smoothly, Yamato led four people back to Konoha safely. Summer was coming, and the trees and young people in the village were looking forward to the scorching wind. Naruto's office, Tsunade, Shizune listened to the report, and Tutu was still hiding in Shizune's arms. Tsunade sighed, "That's it...so what?" Naruto said, "We will never give up." Everyone's attitude was firm, Tsunade smiled, "Then assign the next task to you immediately. Before there is news, we will stand by at home." The four people agreed together, and then left Naruto's office, leaving only Yamato.
In Konoha Hospital, Kakashi was still staying in bed reading banned books, Jirai stood beside him. Kakashi was surprised, "What did you say? Naruto and the others and Sasuke... But their original mission was... the prophecy of the Aster witch was really accurate!" Jiraiya said, "Yes, their original mission was to capture the spy who was placed by Scorpion next to Orochimaru and bring back Konoha. It was also to obtain information from Orochimaru and Sasuke. But the spy who was placed by Scorpion was actually the pharmacist Dora. Orochimaru seemed to have unlocked the technique that Scorpion put on Scorpion, and it seemed that Orochimaru wanted to take the opportunity to kill Scorpion. Without knowing that the real Scorpion was dead, Naruto who was in contact with Orochimaru could not suppress his excitement and ran away... "
Jiraiya continued, "Naruto with four tails appeared and made a big fuss. Orochimaru, who was confronting Nine-tailed Naruto, had reached his limit, and then temporarily retreated with Yamato's suppression of Naruto. Yamato's wooden clone secretly followed them and found Orochimaru's nest. Yamato and others sneaked into the interior, met Sasuke there and fought."
Kakashi asked, "So, what's going on?" Jiraiya said, "Sasuke seems to have gained a very powerful force, and Naruto cannot compete with him at all. Except for Azuna, everyone else was also defeated. Azuna suppressed Sasuke with his years of hard practice. Later, Orochimaru and I arrived one after another, and the battle ended in vain."
Kakashi sighed, "That's it..." Jiraiya said, "Don't be so depressed? Naruto was unable to fully utilize his strength due to the damage of the Nine-tailed transformation. And..." Kakashi waved his hand, "I was not depressed. I also think Sasuke was better. Also, because I know the gap with Sasuke, I will work harder in my practice in the future. Yes?" Jiraiya snorted, "Yes!" Kakashi said, "It's great to be able to come back safely this time." A group of birds flew to the sky, and Jiraiya had more expectations.
On the elder's side, Mito Menyan said, "It's great that Naruto can return safely." Shun Gu said, "Although the mission is unforeseen, it's normal. But they never expected that they would meet Orochimaru. They wanted to keep Naruto in the village because they were afraid of encountering similar incidents." Menyan said, "That stubborn guy doesn't listen to our opinions. Sarutobi was not particularly persistent in this matter." When talking about Tsunade Hime of the Five Dynasties, both elders were very troubled.
When he walked outside, Naruto started to play, "Sakura, let's go on a date now." Sakura was dissatisfied, "Have you forgotten what Master Tsunade said?" Naruto was stunned, "Has she said anything else?" Jingzang said, "Besides staying at home before the next mission in Class 7." Naruto smiled, "It's okay to relax for a while." Sakura said intentionally, "You want to date, go alone." Naruto felt bitter, "What's the date alone!" Sai smiled, thinking that the relationship between Naruto and Sakura was quite interesting.
In the Naruto office, Tsunade asked about Sai's condition. Yamato began to report, "As Tsunade worried, Danzo gave him a special task." Tsunade said angrily, "What special task?" Shizune was embarrassed, "Sure..." Yamato said, "Sai, under Danzo's instructions, was carried out missions as the Antes, to conduct intelligence and assassination on dangerous people of Konoha. Sai joined the seventh squad, the number one person that Konoha paid the most attention to, Orochimaru, and killed Orochimaru's new body, Sasuke." Shizune screamed, Tsunade snorted, "I thought he would give up. The method was still as tough as a martial artist! But he was concerned about Konoha's mood."
Yamato said, "Does it mean Danzo?" Tsunade was stunned, "Of course yes!" Yamato sighed and handed the envelope to Tsunade, "After reading these, let's draw a conclusion." Tsunade took it, "What is this?" Yamato said, "In order to get in touch with Orochimaru, Danzo asked Sai to bring Orochimaru a gift." After reading the list of Anbu inside, Shizune was so shocked that she almost fell down. Tsunade was furious, "Bastard, damn it! How did that guy Danzo get this list from a confidential document?" Shizune was a little nervous, "That Master Tsunade, now..."
Tsunade had blue veins on his head and shouted, "Silent! Change the security permit of the confidential document library immediately and the interpretation of the code. Go now!!" Tsunade ran out of the office with his tyrant in his arms, frightened by the scare of the seven souls. Yamato wiped his sweat and laughed dryly. Tsunade said angrily, "Damn it, that old fox. He is always a guy who will not change his mind no matter when! Orochimaru, Akatsuki, now there is turmoil outside the village, and the village is full of dangers. So Sai's application just now had to be carefully considered." Yamato said, "There is no need for this matter." Tsunade was surprised.
At the base of the root base, Sai came to report to Danzo. Danzo was a little displeased, "The special mission failed, this is not like you!" Sai smiled, "I have a request, can I keep staying in the seventh squad?" Danzo was surprised, "This smile..." Danzo said, "Tsunade mentioned this matter to me. But do you understand, Sai? Feelings will breed hatred, and hatred will cause war." Sai remembered Sasuke's words and Naruto's mouth escape, "Maybe it is really the case. But..." Danzo did not reject this request, because Sai could also monitor Naruto for him if he stayed in the seventh squad.
The Sarutobi family is filled with a festive atmosphere. The wedding of Asma and Yuri Hong is about to be held. When Jingzang saw Sarutobi, he reported to Sarutobi the process of the operation. Sarutobi said, "It's so risky! At that time, you shouldn't chase after him without permission. Fortunately, Jiraiya arrived in time, otherwise you will be in danger." Jingzang said, "Orochimaru is indeed very powerful, especially his almost immortal body." Sarutobi said, "There is no completely immortal. Whether it is the technique of molting or the technique of connecting snakes, it will consume a lot of chakra. Even Orchimaru may use it without restrictions."
After the report, Jingzang went out to talk to Hanahuo and Ranmaru, and Kummaru and Akamon Scholar were also here to help. Sarutobi sighed, "Danzo is becoming more and more useless in doing things, and it seems that it is necessary to have a good talk with him." Sarutobi was not as strange as Tsunade when Danzo was able to get those secret lists. Danzo was deeply rooted in the Konoha tree, and it was not difficult to get these things.
Facing Sarutobi's severe accusations, Danzo said, "How can I deceive the cunning and suspicious Orochimaru without this list of Anbu? Sometimes, to do something, you must sacrifice something." Sarutobi was very dissatisfied, "We have argued about this issue for a lifetime, and I don't want to say much, because neither of us can convince each other. Fortunately, I have been chasing the list this time, but I hope there will be no next time, Danzo!" Danzo was silent for a while, "Okay, I will pay attention in the future, and I guarantee that similar things will not happen again." Sarutobi turned around and left, "Remember your words, Danzo Shimura! Don't force me to take the final action. Now with Tsunade and Jiraiya, I don't have as many concerns as before."
The next day, Sai was about to draw in the room, wanting to draw a painting of his brother's letter. Naruto's voice came, and Sai walked to the window. The people in the seventh squad were all under the big tree, and Naruto shouted, "Come and discuss the next task." Sai opened the door and walked out with a smile. Naruto urged, "Hurry up, don't be slow!" Sai smiled, "It's coming soon." Afterwards, Sai shone the sunlight, and the painting of the new seventh squad under the big tree was placed in the center of the room, with the painting name "Nakama" written below. Sai, who had regained feelings, began to draw. It was a painting with a title, with friends.
In the evening, Naruto returned to his room and saw the previous photo of Class 7. It was a photo taken by photographer Genzo for Class 7 three years ago. At that time, Kakashi said, "You need to take a photo, everyone cheer up!" Naruto shouted, "Why do I have to take a photo with Sasuke?" Sasuke said angrily, "This is my line, the tail of the crane!" Naruto said angrily, "What did you say?" Jingzang smoothed out, "Okay, okay, taking a photo together was decided before." Sakura smiled, "But I'm so happy! I can take a photo with Sasuke."
Naruto immediately said, "Me too, I am too. I am so happy to take photos with Sakura." Sakura was not happy, "Teacher, please don't take Naruto." Naruto almost collapsed, "How can this be done..." Sasuke laughed, "Idiot!" Naruto was angry, "Don't laugh!" Kakashi grabbed the two of them, "You two, stop at the right time!" Jingzang also said, "It's a headache for the photographer! Well, this is for memorial." Kakashi said, "Learn one together, laugh one."
