Listen to Jiraiya's words.
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly, and then slowly relaxed it. It looked like he nodded in agreement, but in fact it was obvious that he didn't really listen.
"Old man!"
A mentor-disciple relationship for more than twenty years.
Sarutobi Hiruzen knows Jiraiya very well, but Jiraiya also knows Sarutobi Hiruzen very well.
He was familiar with his teacher's character.
At this moment, his eyes were fixed and he was about to continue saying something.
"Okay, I know the matters about Jiraiya and Danzo. The most important thing now is to focus on the matters of the Uchiha Clan and Orochimaru. The latter will be left to you. The top priority is to investigate the intention and destination of Orochimaru. The sooner we solve it, the better!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, blocking Jiraiya's words. Looking at the expression of his teacher Hokage, especially the firm look in his eyes, Jiraiya couldn't help but sigh, and then swallowed the words that came to his mouth again. It must be said that Jiraiya also felt that the older his teacher got, the more he lost his former grace. Originally, mature and prudent was a compliment.
It's a good attitude towards doing things.
But excessive caution is synonymous with conservatism and stubbornness.
Jiraiya knows what his teacher is worried about, but in Jiraiya's opinion, the more worried he is, the less he should do it. If he continues to indulge Danzo, it will only lead to more serious consequences. However, his teacher has obviously made up his mind, and Jiraiya himself is not the kind of person who talks too much.
"Well, I understand."
At this moment, all I can do is respond with a silent nod.
"Whoosh!"
Just straight up his figure.
He left Hokage Office Building directly and went to fulfill his 'responsibility'.
After all, Jiraiya is a rare naive idealist among Konohagakure, which is why he was able to teach Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan Because of 's style of disciples, if Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu didn't play tricks behind them, the three of them could really grow into what Jiraiya expected.
This is the style of Jiraiya and the charm of Jiraiya.
It is also the limitation of Jiraiya, because this Shinobi World is a cruel and dark world. It is often impossible for idealists to reach their own end and realize their goals. The life of Jiraiya in Original Work can be said to be magnificent, but it is really difficult to say that it is successful, because the people you love, the ideals you pursue, the people you respect and care about rarely have a happy ending!
Even he himself died at the hands of the disciple who once valued and respected him the most. It must be said that the life of this Konoha hero was full of all kinds of regrets.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at his disciple's leaving figure, with a complicated look in his turbid pupils, and sighed quietly. As Hokage and his master, how could he not see through the dissatisfaction hidden beneath the surface of his disciple.
But this Third Hokage still feels that his decision is the best way to meet Konoha's current interests. Konoha needs stability, Konoha needs time, and while Konoha is maintaining the 'warm family' created by 'Will of Fire', it also needs the cold and dark side of Danzo.
Only in this way can Konoha be able to move steadily in the right direction. This is the strategy Sarutobi Hiruzen set when he took the throne, and he has implemented it for thirty years. It is absolutely impossible for him to change this.
Because redefining the order and changing the status quo means denying the correctness of the past. This is something Sarutobi Hiruzen will never do. It is also the most stupid and failed part of this Third Hokage.
It's just that he never felt that way.
"Jiraiya, one day, you will understand my painstaking efforts."
After Sarutobi Hiruzen murmured in a low voice, he returned to immersing himself in dealing with the complicated government affairs on the desktop. In these troubled times, internal matters and external matters, as Hokage, he needed to pay attention to so many points that he could not spend too much time on a single thing.
Ups and downs Shinobi World.
The atmosphere became tense and subtle.
When Uchiha Clan chose to join Iwagakure, Shinobi World was filled with an extremely dangerous atmosphere.
Subconsciously strengthen border security.
When they saw Five Great Nations's various movements, those small country ninja villages who were worried about another war breaking out also had to strengthen their own defenses.
The past three times Shinobi World War have taught these small countries bloody lessons!
But these have nothing to do with Uchiha or even Iwagakure. At least they are not willing to pay attention to them.
Ōnoki just wants his village to be safe and accept Uchiha Clan back into the village. We will talk about the future later. After integrating Shinobi World's first wealthy and powerful family, they Iwagakure's strength will definitely double. By that time, the courage and confidence of Konoha that they once envied, such as one against two or even one against three, will reappear on their Iwagakure.
The same goes for the Uchiha Clan.
It's not just Shōji, Fugaku, Shisui and others at the top.
The Uchiha young and middle-aged people in the middle and lower classes also hope that the clan can be stabilized as soon as possible. Only those relatives who are ordinary members of the tribe can obtain a peaceful land for survival, and they can do what they want to do without any scruples - revenge Konoha!
It can be said that they have a high level of tacit understanding with each other on this matter.
Of course, this does not mean that there are no voices of dissent.
Uchiha Clan into Iwagakure.
This is the arbitrary behavior of Tsuchikage——Ōnoki.
Although like Sarutobi Hiruzen, Ōnoki has the highest prestige and power in the village as the shadow that has been in charge of Iwagakure for more than 30 years, but it does not mean that the people below will not raise any different opinions.
Especially the addition of the Uchiha Clan.
I didn't react before.
Moreover, it will take a period of time to react and digest, and they will need to communicate with each other to discuss. The arrival of such a large clan will definitely reorganize the village structure, which is a sight that those Iwagakure Ninja Clan don't want to see.
Even if you know that the probability of success in opposing is very low.
But these people still negotiated clearly.
He went to meet Ōnoki as Tsuchikage as soon as possible.
At this point in time, all members of the Uchiha Clan entered Land of Earth, and were only half way to Iwagakure.
"Lord Third, please think about it carefully. It may not be a good thing for the Uchiha Clan to join our village. Their family is the Ninja Clan who once founded Konoha, now all deviate from Konoha, there must be deep problems in it. If we don't understand this, it will easily become a time bomb for our Iwagakure!"
