Chapter 151 Why is Uchiha Giyu everywhere!!!
One hour ago,the Hokage's office.
[I regret it so much...]
Tsunade crumpled the official document she had just written into a ball with her hands and threw it towards the already overflowing trash can, there was another burden that she couldn't bear.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, the usually tough and resolute Hokage changed her normal attitude, picked up Tonton lying in the corner, and started the thought mode.
[If I hadn't let Shizune be the director of Konoha Hospital, she wouldn't have stayed there all day long.]
[If Shizune hadn't happened to be at the hospital that night, she wouldn't have personally treated Uchiha Shisui who had returned with a serious injury.]
[If Shizune didn't personally perform the operation on Uchiha Shisui, she would have no reason to go to the ward all day long to check his condition.]
[If she didn't go to check his condition, then the two people would not be in love with each other and have a good impression of each other.]
[If two people didn't have a good relationship, then they wouldn't get married, and Shizune wouldn't be pregnant now.]
[If Shizune wasn't pregnant, I wouldn't have to think so much now, and I would transfer her over as a matter of course to help me deal with these messy things!!! ]
These are the thoughts of the Fifth Hokage, who had processed 76 files all morning.
[It's such a boring and tedious job, and the old man was still reluctant to leave before he disappeared?]
She has reached the point where every time she reads a word, her brain goes black.
While Tsunade was in a trance, Tonton suddenly twisted its body and escaped from her arms, jumped behind the sofa in the office and hid.
Tsunade suddenly frowned: "Even this lazy guy also wants to avoid me?"
She was about to get up and chase after it, relaxing and stretching her muscles, when there was a knock on the office door.
"Hokage-sama, I am Kurosawa from the market research department. I am here to report on the general decline in the price of explosive tags in various countries. Can I come in? "
"And Lord Hokage, I'm here to ask about the modification of the details of Hokage Rock!"
"Hokage-sama, the Third Hokage grandson Sarutobi Konohamaru graffitied and attacked teachers in school again! "
"Hokage-sama, some publishers from Earth Kingdom are very dissatisfied with the list of books that can be sold that Elder Fugaku approved!"
"Hokage-sama, there are people from twelve debt collection companies crying in the reception hall of the Hokage Building and they can't be driven away. They must see you!"
[Here it comes again! I just finished processing one batch and another batch came!]
As soon as she heard these things, Tsunade felt a lack of interest.
However, she couldn't completely ignore her responsibilities.
Therefore, Tsunade did not answer immediately. Instead, she took out the gambling equipment from the drawer and took out the dice, then put the teacup on it and shook it vigorously on the desk for a while without using any cheating techniques.
Then she took three deep breaths and suddenly opened the teacup, and her eyes suddenly lit up. I even felt that the whole room was lit up - there were three 6s on the table! This is the maximum value that can be shaken under normal circumstances!
[Big success.]
Seemingly supported by fate, Tsunade confidently shouted to the people outside the door: "I'm very busy now! Go to Elder Fugaku or Elder Shikaku. If they can't handle it, come to me again! "
The people outside seemed to hesitate for more than ten seconds, and finally left muttering. I don't know what they were complaining about, but they definitely didn't suspect that the Hokage was gambling at work.
However, Tsunade behind the desk still Before she could relax, she heard joking laughter from the window: "Hahaha, I wonder if the old man would have regretted it if he had seen this scene just now? "
Tsunade was not surprised, because she was very familiar with this voice, and the owner of this voice was one of the people she trusted most in the world.
"This is the passage I left specially for the ANBU directly under me, Jiraiya. "
" I'm sorry, because I saw a lot of people queuing at the door before, so I decided to go through the window."
Jiraiya stepped in from the window sill and placed a drink with a golden fat sheep on Tsunade's desk. This is a must-have drink in many casinos and is said to have the effect of improving luck.
" I may have some precognitive abilities. When I passed by Danzhu Street this morning, I prepared an apology gift for you. Please don't blame me for such a trivial matter. "
Tsunade didn't say anything. She opened the mouth of the drink and sniffed it gently.
"Specially asked for the non-alcoholic version. "
Tsunade then poured the drink into the tea cup with confidence, took a sip, and then quickly glanced at Jirai: "How about this time? Did you find any useful clues? "
"No. I went to the places that the old man always loved to go to, and even went to the Country of Whirlpool, but I didn't find any traces. "
Jiraiya leaned on the bookcase and shook his head gently, "But I'm not surprised. After all, he is a person called 'Doctor of Ninjutsu'."
"Even Orochimaru can disappear without a trace. If the old man makes up his mind not to be discovered, unless I wake up Toad Sennin for divination, we can only wait for him to show up."
"Is that possible? It will be another possibility..." Tsunade lowered her brows slightly, as if she had many bad associations.
"I really like what the boy named Kyojuro said."
Jiraiya interrupted very confidently: "If there is no bad thing that actually happened, don't always fantasize about it."
"That old man is the one who taught Konoha Sannin, neither body nor spirit can withstand the abuse."
"Sanshouo no Hanzo has ruined the country like that and is still alive and well. Although the old man is not as good as the Second Hokage, he is still much better than that guy. It is impossible to think about it."
"..."
Tsunade After pondering for a while, she finally agreed with Jiraiya's opinion, "I hope I'm worrying too much."
The day she took office was the day Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly disappeared from the world.
I thought the old man was in a bad mood and went out to change his mood, but he never came back.
Starting about a year ago, Jiraiya would ask for news about the Third Hokage every time he went out, but this news...was too complete.
"Well, although there is no result in finding someone, I passed by the Valley of the End last night and happened to meet Yuhi Kurenai and the others investigating the earthquake. I eavesdropped for a while while I was taking a nap."
Jiraiya stepped forward, picked up a pen and drew a simple diagram on the back of an abandoned document: "Not only was Orochimaru resurrected, but he also used the Yamata no Jutsu he had stolen to fight with others, and at least seven of his heads were chopped off. His battle with the opponent created a small pit one kilometer wide, and the Valley of the End has now become a large lake."
"Destructive power on this scale..." Tsunade immediately thought of the first thing in her mind. What comes to mind is the person who has killed Orochimaru once: "Do Yuhi Kurenai and the others think that this is probably done by Uchiha Giyu?"
"That's what they think. But in recent years, there have been reports about Uchiha Giyu in various places. Uchiha Giyu's analysis of the battle traces mentioned traces of water attack and slicing."
Jiraiya obviously didn't think so either, "But considering the intensity and duration of the earthquake at that time, I don't think the pit should have been carved slowly, but was directly blown up by the powerful energy output instantly, otherwise there would not be such a big movement."
"You mean, tailed beast bomb?!"
When I think about the possibility of a wild tailed beast or a jinchuriki from another country, As they were operating within the Fire Nation, Tsunade's forehead tightened with worry.
"If it weren't for the tailed beast bomb, it would have been a super-super-large rasengan, but even I can't do a rasengan of this size." Jiraiya originally thought that telling a joke would make Tsunade relax, but the result was counterproductive.
"It's Orochimaru, tailed beasts and jinchūriki again, plus other messy things, the Fire Country is really going to be a mess."
Since there are only seven heads left in place, there is a high probability that Orochimaru is Successfully escaped.
After Tsunade complained angrily, she took out a document from the thick stack and handed it over, "This is a letter I received this morning from Uchiha Itachi, who is a civil servant in the Daimyo Palace. Please read it."
If Uchiha wants to be Hokage, he must have the endorsement of a daimyo, so they must send someone to stay in the Fire City to have a good relationship with the daimyo.
It happened that Uchiha Itachi didn't want to be a ninja, so Fugaku saw that the eldest son was getting angry at every turn, so he simply sent him over.
Now, Itachi has become a message relay between Konoha and the Daimyo - because although the Hokage and the Daimyo are relatives, they don't get along very well, so when the two parties contact each other, their words and sentences always highlight one's arrogance.
In order to reduce conflicts between each other, Uchiha Itachi often polishes the letters after receiving them, and only presents them to both parties after successfully reducing the offensive statements in them.
"Someone attacked four gold exchanges in the Land of Fire and took away the intelligence they had collected over the years."
Jiraiya quickly summarized the important content after taking it: "The attacker was masked in black robes, with a teenage build, and the weapon they used was a katana hanging on the waist, indestructible, and suspected to be the legendary Kusanagi sword. The attacker caused a melee by showing off the katana while fishing, and then found a reason to launch a counterattack…"
"Many veteran jounin faced an enemy with superb sword skills. Even So many Jonins were no match for one enemy. If the person who attacks the other party is a vicious ninja, the other party will kill them on the spot without mercy..." He glanced over it repeatedly, and finally said with uncertainty: "Although this letter was sent back by Itachi Uchiha, according to my understanding the only person who can meet these descriptions is Uchiha Giyu. "
Jiraiya once heard from Tsunade that although Uchiha Giyu's current sword is not a Kusanagi sword, it is probably not much weaker in terms of strength. It is normal for it to be considered a Kusanagi sword.
"It's not impossible, if you look at this, I also received it this morning..."
Tsunade gave Jiraiya a mission authorization letter with a speechless face. That is, an hour later, he showed it to Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura's share.
"That Gato shipping company? It's actually a big business..."
After Jiraiya made a noncommittal comment, he turned over the power of attorney and immediately saw the two portraits.
"I remember this mask. It seems that there is a similar style mask at Naruto's house...."
"This is a mask designed by Uchiha Giyu himself. It cannot be found anywhere else." Tsunade pointed to the two portraits, "And among the two masked persons, the shorter one also has a sword on their waist like Uchiha Giyu; the taller one seems to be as tall as Rengoku Kyojuro, whose clone was recently active in Land of Fire. "
"You mean..."
"The Valley of the End, the Money Exchange and the Country of Waves may all be the work of Uchiha Giyu."
"But I think about it carefully. As you said, the first one is more likely to be done by a jinchuriki. As for the second one, if Uchiha Giyu wants to do it, he probably won't use cunning methods like fishing; so Among them, the most likely one is related to him, which is the third one."
Tsunade handed Jiraiya a writing brush, "It just so happens that I have a letter delivery task to give to Kakashi. He only needs one person to do it. As for this mission to the Kingdom of Waves, it's up to you to take Naruto, Sasuke and Haruno Sakura there."
"I understand what you mean." Jiraiya's expression became rare and serious, "But even if you are worried Orochimaru or others will take action against Konoha..."
"Although I don't want to say it, the place around Rengoku Kyojuro and Uchiha Giyu is a safer place for Naruto than Konoha. Wait until I find out what happened in the other two places and then I will eliminate any potential threats. Then it won't be too late for you to bring them back."
Seeing what Jiraiya wanted to say, Tsunade directly played her identity card and said without any doubt: " This is the Hokage's order, carry it out."
"You said so..." Jiraiya scratched his head, "Now, I have no choice but to obey. But, can I ask you something? Of course, it has nothing to do with the mission."
"What?"
"I can guess the reason why you put Naruto and Sasuke into the same class. But this Haruno Sakura seems to have nothing to do with them..."
[In terms of potential, they are not on the same level either, this will fall apart sooner or later...]
"One reason is... Haruno Sakura is the fastest-growing member of the graduating medical ninja crash course and can supplement the team's shortcomings."
Tsunade gave an answer, but it was not complete.
After a moment of silence, she gave another reason: "In addition, she is the only one among the recent graduates who has a dual spirit."
"That's it." Jiraiya suddenly realized.
Dual spirit sounds useless to the ears of ordinary ninjas. It feels like the dual personality in a child's mouth, a bit silly.
But for those who practice the "Spiritual Art", dual spirit is as crucial as the Sharingan is to Uchiha Shurikenjutsu.
If Kato Dan had a dual spirit back then, he would be able to control his body with even a small part of his spirit remaining while part of his spirit was separated from his body, so as to avoid and cope with attacks and drag on the body. If you delay, maybe history will be rewritten.
"Don't worry! Tsunade! I know how important this child is to you."
Jiraiya patted his chest grandly, "Even if I can't finish my novel now, the protagonist can't lose weight and can only be a virgin, I will definitely take good care of these three brats!"
"The result of my lottery draw this morning is thank you for your patronage. I think you will be fine."
"Then I'll lend you some good luck." Jiraiya stepped out of the window with one leg and turned back to ask: "On the other side, about the money exchange..."
"I've already thought about it. Since the robbers are sword masters, I'd better send an expert to investigate. "
Tsunade raised the tea cup and took a sip of the drink: "It just so happens that Shizune hasn't reached the critical stage of pregnancy yet, so I'll let Uchiha Shisui be busy for a while longer. I can just take care of her myself."
