Konoha Hits The Soul

Chapter 259 New Leader

In the dead silence, Jiraiya stared at his teacher steadily, trying to see something from the face that had never been seen through.

But the result is the same every time.

He was silent for a moment, then said:

“Isn’t just Anbu not enough?”

“You heard it just now, it’s not enough. We must need roots, and need roots to quickly cultivate combat effectiveness. This cannot be achieved with Anbu alone…”

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at his disciple with a cold look, and said, “I need someone who can be trusted by me and who has such ability.

After all, the signs of war have become more and more obvious. If we do not prepare early, we can cultivate a team that can perform special tasks in depth.

After the war, Konoha is likely to be held back by people everywhere, and even the worst consequences that we don’t want to see happen, making the country of fire become a defeated country. ”

Faced with such radical words, Jiraiya fell silent again. After thinking for a while, he continued to ask: “Then Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, they are calm and experienced, so they can definitely… ”

“Two of them?”

Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted Jiraiya and said, “One is sensible but too conservative and tough, and the other is calm, but only advances and retreats with the other.

With these two controlling roots, do you want all my political views to be hindered and difficult to implement? ”

“…”

Jiraiya was silent again, and sighed softly after a long time: “What about Orochimaru? He should actually be more suitable for this kind of work, right?”

“Do you want to push him to the front this time?”

Sarutobi Hiruzen’s voice became completely indifferent, no longer the kindness of the past:

“Jiraiya, you often pretend that you are the fate of the protagonist in the novel and the guide of the son of destiny, but why do you have to avoid everything?

Whether it’s the past or the present, Orochimaru has already carried enough things for you. Do you still choose to avoid your own responsibilities until now?

What’s more, Orochimaru is now trying to get close to Uchiha, and even has a lot of his own properties in the village. Do you really think that he is suitable for becoming the leader of the roots? ”

After a long silence, standing still, Jiraiya shook his head and said, “Is there no other choice?”

“Other options? Ha ha, of course there are.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his eyes and smiled indifferently: “If Jiraiya you must refuse this responsibility and responsibility, as a teacher, I will certainly not embarrass you.

Moreover, considering the reasons why you might refuse, I prepared an alternative candidate very early.

Although he looks a little immature, his methods of doing things are very mature. The most important thing is that he is very obedient and has the consciousness to pay and sacrifice for the village.

If I made this request to him, he would definitely agree to it without hesitation. ”

On the other hand, when the teacher in front of him proposes such a “second plan”, Jiraiya will definitely relax. Then he laughed loudly, as before, smiling and asking his teacher who is the hapless one.

But now, Jiraiya not only didn’t have half joy on his face, but even looked inexplicably difficult, but in the end, a faint anger was born.

Unabashed anger.

“Old man, you know, I won’t let you touch him!”

Jiraiya looked grimly: “Minato is very likely to be the’son of prophecy’ in the prophecy of Toad Sage. He is very likely to be a person who wants to bring changes to the Ninja world. I cannot allow anything like this in his life. stain!

Old man, you should understand that the destiny of that child is to become Hokage! Not a shit successor! ”

“No stain?”

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed softly, “Who is it that I don’t understand, Jiraiya, after so many years, so many places, can’t you understand?

In this world, there is no absolutely perfect person. What’s more, the more you are in a high position, the more you will be involuntarily involuntarily. If you want to consider the overall situation, you must sacrifice some corners.

There is nothing perfect at all. The plot in your novel would never happen in reality. Even if Minato becomes Hokage someday, he must face these problems.

Unless he chooses to abdicate or die, even the Son of Destiny has no other way! ”

Hearing these words, Jiraiya was silent, but the anger in his heart seemed to become more and more substantial.

“My naive disciple, no matter the times are flourishing or chaotic, where the light is, the darkness will follow you like a shadow. The beautiful world in your novel is after all too ideal…”

Sighing and looking at his seemingly stubborn disciple who is his most satisfied, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and sighed: “What? Do you want to leave with anger as before and choose to escape reality?

Make a good decision, Jiraiya, this time, do you choose to take the initiative to take on all of this, or choose to bear the darkness for your own disciple and pave the way for his destiny? ”

“Do I still have a choice?”

Jiraiya looked cold and looked at his teacher: “From the beginning, you didn’t give me another choice, did you?”

“Relax.”

Facing the disciple’s questioning, Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled satisfied: “Although it is the root, it is not as unbearable as you think. Although you have to carry a lot of darkness, you are different from Danzo.

I believe that in your hands, I can definitely see a different root, a real root that can provide enough nutrients for the towering tree Konoha! ”

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Jiraiya expectantly:

“You won’t regret it, Jiraiya. From the moment you promised, Konoha has a brand new future.”

But Jiraiya just shook his head, “Old man, I’m really annoying now, so don’t use your will to fire to’baptize’ me. With time for this nonsense, it’s better to help my novels be published more and more. print.”

“As long as you become the leader of the roots, the mere Zengyin will naturally be a matter of course.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled, and the conversation turned: “However, before that, you should personally deal with the mess left by Danzo and the passages that Master uses to maintain his roots…”

“I will take office from now on?”

Jiraiya frowned, feeling a little headache inexplicably: “Danzo is still alive, can his smuggling channels still be used for me?”

“Of course, the important thing is never Danzo.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head: “It’s who can provide the supply. In this area, I am afraid that other families involved in this area will also want to participate in it. You must take over everything before them.

At the same time, there are two urgent tasks. ”

Sarutobi Hiruzen paused and said, “First, monitor the number one target mentioned just now, Shimura Danzō, and find out the details of his forces outside the village to prevent accidents.

second,……”

He stared into Jiraiya’s eyes and said, “Find the trace of Nine Tails Jinchūriki Uzumaki Kushina and bring her back alive.”
