Chapter 170: The Walking Witch

“Is there still no news of Tsunade?”

Jiraiya asked.

“There are no clues. The Anbu who is looking for Senior Tsunade is almost running thin. The big and small casinos in the country of fire have been checked. Unfortunately, Senior Tsunade seems to have no intention of showing up. He has been playing guerrilla warfare with Anbu. ”

“That’s it!”

Jiraiya sighed slightly.

It seems that Tsunade has not shaken off the shadow of the past after all these years, and is reluctant to return to the village… Then forget it! Anyway, Mr. Chofeng seems to be quite old, but he should be able to persist in the last few years. Konoha’s new generation is also thriving. It is better for him to be a wanderer who has left the village not to point fingers at the things in the village. !

“A new generation?”



Toad Sage’s gaze flicked over Zongxuan’s body, and then to Itachi and Kimimaro. Looking at these young and excessive faces, Jiraiya deeply felt the fact that Konoha’s new generation had grown up, and Compared with these young people, they are real old things.

“Zongxian-kun, I heard that you met Orochimaru in Water Country?” Jiraiya didn’t plan to make any comments about Fifth Hokage, so he simply changed the subject and talked about another thing that he cared very much about.

He has been running around these years,

One is to find the Son of Destiny, which is a long task with no end in sight, and the other is to track Orochimaru’s whereabouts. He still has a heart for the betrayal of this former classmate and comrade.

“Yes.”

Zongxuan nodded, “But it was not me who met Orochimaru, but Shisui. He and Orochimaru had a fight. In the end, Shisui was injured and Orochimaru walked away alone. Kimimaro… was the white-haired kid. , The child who was deceived by Orochimaru’s brainwashing, was rescued by Shisui.”

“According to Shisui’s report, Orochimaru was easily repelled by him because he studied the Forbidden Technique of immortality, causing a defect in his soul.”

These pieces of information about Orochimaru were compiled into reports and submitted to the village.

With Jiraiya’s identity and status, these pieces of information must have been seen, and Zong Xian is repeating it now.

“Uchiha Shisui? Repelled Jinchūriki with your own strength. You Uchiha are really talented! You can make Orochimaru suffer… I really want to see that bastard looks embarrassed, and betrayed for immortality. Village, in the end, I studied Forbidden Technique and got my soul out of the problem!” Jiraiya seemed to be cursing and sighing. Even Kimimaro, who was standing not far away, could feel the complexity in the words. mood.

“The Land of Water…Let’s go and see if you have a chance!”

Jiraiya murmured.

Although Orochimaru is unlikely to remain in the Land of Water, who can say this kind of thing correctly, Orochimaru’s brain is different from ordinary people, and he can’t figure out Orochimaru’s thoughts according to common sense.

“If you go to the Water Country, there is no problem. We are now allies with Kiri Shinobu, but… I thought Jiraiya-senpai you would stay in the village to take care of Naruto!”

“I have become accustomed to wandering all over the world. Having stayed in the village for such a long time, I can hardly bear the heart of longing for traveling!”

Jiraiya smiled freely and freely, “As for Naruto, I originally thought that if it didn’t work, I would take him away from Konoha and travel with me, but now it seems that it’s better to let him stay in the village, compared to traveling with a bad old man. , Naruto needs friends of my peers…but I will come back to visit Naruto from time to time!”

learn from mistakes,

After being fooled by Mr. Sarutobi, Jiraiya obviously learned his lesson. His last words were a hidden threat, and there was always some worry in his heart. Uchiha’s approach to Naruto was the power of plotting Nine Tails.

“Don’t worry, Naruto is my sister’s friend, and also considered as my half-disciple. No matter what, his life will not be worse than when the Third Generation was in power.” Zong Xian laughed and ironed back. Before threatening others, he first saw the treatment Naruto suffered because of whose fault.

Hearing what Zong Xian said,

Jiraiya’s smile suddenly stiffened.

This is something he can’t let go of it now. Some of Sarutobi’s actions made him completely accept that he couldn’t, but Mr. Sarutobi is gone. No amount of dissatisfaction in his heart can only be held in his heart, and there is no way to vent it. It is so ridiculed and can only endure.

“Half a disciple? The secret art of drawing is Zongxian-kun you taught Naruto?”

Jiraiya, who was irrational and arrogant, had to change the subject.

“Super beasts pseudo-paintings, Yang escape secret art, very suitable for Naruto, he is not only Nine Tails Jinchūriki, but also inherited the blood of the Uzumaki clan, this type of Yang escape secret art can shine in his hands.” Xian didn’t chase him, and a satirical sentence was enough. If nothing happened, he continued to gossip with Jiraiya.

“Then why not just accept Naruto as a disciple?”

“One is to avoid suspicion.”

Zongxian replied frankly, “After all, our Uchiha clan has such a history. Strictly speaking, Shisui and I both have the power to manipulate tail beasts… If Naruto is accepted as a disciple, there will be many gossips in the village. It’s not conducive to the integration of our people into the village.””The second is that Naruto is not suitable to be my disciple. The Uchiha clan’s ability is basically in these eyes. I can teach Naruto not many things. I also learned the secret art of super beast pseudo-painting from Danzo. Even if it’s not me, Naruto can learn it from other channels in the village. Besides, there is Senior Jiraiya, you are here! I don’t have to go on my behalf.”

When the two talked, they walked towards the street outside the park.

Uchiha Itachi and Kimimaro followed closely behind.

“Jiraiya-senpai, if there is nothing else, I will say goodbye. I still need to report to Hokage-sama about what you didn’t intend to do with Fifth Generation.” When he walked to the side of the street, Zongxuan stopped and said goodbye to Jiraiya.

“Tell me the trouble to tell the wind-senior, I am really sorry for the delay for such a long time.”

Jiraiya said so.

Zong Xian smiled, and was about to get up and leave, but found unexpected people approaching. On this not-so-popular street, Anbu wearing a fox face mask knelt in front of him on one knee, “Zong Xian My lord, there is an emergency, please go to the Hokage building immediately.”

Emergency situations?

The sudden change made Zongxian a little confused. What happened to the war in the north, he thought in his heart, and said: “I know, this is over.”

“Master Jiraiya, if you have time, Master Hokage would also like to invite you to the Hokage building.”

“Huh? Is there still me?”

Jiraiya scratched his head, hesitating.

He is self-aware. He is a wanderer who is wandering outside, but he doesn’t have such a big face to mix up the big things in the village. This is the reason why he came back to the village but didn’t meet with Lord Hokage. Sooner or later, he had to set off again. of.

but,

Regarding the purpose of Fifth Generation, he was a little bit embarrassed to reply after so long, and it seems that something big has happened. If the situation is serious, you can’t really just sit idly by and think about the future of forbearance. At the same time, his love for the village has never been less.

“All right!”

After a short hesitation, Jiraiya agreed, and immediately looked at Zong Xian, “Zong Xian -kun, it seems that you don’t need to bother you to bring a word.”

“Senior Jiraiya, together?”

“Then go together.”



Zongxian and Jiraiya rushed towards the Hokage building. As for Uchiha Itachi and Kimimaro… continue to work. As newcomers to the police department, patrols are their daily tasks.

————

The Hokage building changed the owner’s office.

In Jiraiya’s memory, Mr. Sarutobi was sitting here. At that time, Mr. Sarutobi was very high-spirited, and he was the famous Ninja in the ninja world. The name of the strongest Hokage was of course an exaggeration, but Sarutobi Hiruzen at that time was a little bit more. They are all worthy of the courage of the name “Ninxiong”.

Later, due to a series of incidents during the Three Wars, Teacher Sarutobi abdicated. Jiraiya watched his favorite disciple enter the office. At that time, he firmly believed that his disciple, who was as warm as the sun in winter, would bring him to the village. A better future.

But who knows that the “yellow flash” really fades like a flash, Konoha’s Fourth Hokage died young, and the alive Third Generation has returned to the top position, and now the Third Generation looks disgraceful He stepped down, and was assassinated in prison by a Kirigakure traitor. This office has a new owner.

“Zongxian-kun, here you are! And…Jiraiya.”

Akamichi looked at Jiraiya who appeared with Zongxian and was a little surprised. Jiraiya’s choice that he has always been free from the outside world is not blind and invisible. After all, it is such a powerful combat power from such a valuable non-Uchiha clan.

“Finally, you are willing to come and see me!”

Akamichi is no stranger to Jiraiya. As a disciple of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the famous “Sannin” also fought under Akamichi when he was not growing up in the past.

“Master Hokage.”

Jiraiya didn’t sell it, and went straight forward and said, “I’m sorry for the delay, but please forgive me that I still can’t take over the seat of Fifth Hokage.”

“…Still refused?”

Akamichi froze for a while, but he was not surprised by this answer. After such a long delay, whether Jiraiya finally agreed or refused, he was prepared enough mentally, and now Jiraiya has chosen to refuse.

Only in this way, Fifth Hokage’s candidate becomes difficult again.

“My temperament is not suitable for Hokage.”

“That’s it! So… we can only make Anbu step up efforts to find Tsunade!” Fifth Generation’s agent Hokage sighed, seeming to have completely forgotten what Zongxian said a few days ago. He transfers the formal proposal directly from the agent.

“Master Hokage, I’ll talk about Fifth Hokage in a moment. Can you tell me what happened?” Zong Xian interrupted Master Hokage’s remarks about searching for Tsunade, and he set the goal for Sixth Generation. Hope to see the granddaughter of First Generation come back.

If Tsunade, who has a good face, comes back, with the granddaughter of First Hokage, the disciple of Third Hokage, the creator and perfector of the Konoha medical ninja system, and the dignified Konoha Sannin’s Xiaohong, it can be said that no one can interact with him. To compete for the position of Hokage, as long as she is interested in Hokage, even the yellow flash will not be her opponent.

And this is a woman with a strong and long life,

Even if Zong Xian is only fifteen or six years old now, but he doesn’t want to compete for the Sixth Generation program for the last ten or twenty years. Such a long waiting time is really torture.

“Ask Anbu to call me and Jiraiya-senpai over, is Cloud Shinobi making any big moves? Shisui and the others did not block Cloud Shinobi’s attack?” Zongxuan said while looking at the other three standing in the room. People, the Jōnin class leader, the head of the interrogation department, and the head of Anbu.

Nara Luhisa, the monitor of the Jōnin class, is an acquaintance, and the head of the interrogation department is a middle-aged woman with a cold and stiff face. Ryo Itoi, the life experience of the head of the Interrogation Department can be considered inspirational.

She has the most mundane background. Both parents are common people. Because of her little talent, Chakra entered the Ninja School, but she relied on her own efforts to sit on the position of Deputy Minister of Interrogation Department before the age of thirty. Even more so, thanks to the downfall of Third Hokage, he overthrew his immediate boss and removed the word “Vice” before he was thirty-five years old.

For this Deputy Minister Itoi, it’s not right. Now Minister Itoi, Zongxuan is no stranger. The police department and the interrogation department are also very cooperative. Although the Uchiha clan can use Sharingan to interrogate a lot of intelligence, it is due to various reasons. In fact, there is a lot of cooperation between the two departments.

As for the new minister of Anbu, codenamed “Matsuzo”.

Seeing the familiar Chakra breath, Zongxian recognized the identity of the man hidden behind the mask, the third in command of [Gen], second only to Shimura Danzō and Aburame Ryoma, and Yamanaka Masawa from the Yamanaka clan. The women who used the secret technique of the super beast pseudo-paintings worked together on Zong Xian, but Zong Xian was captured alive.

The deaths of Shimura Danzō and Aburame Ryoma do not mean the demise of the roots. To be precise, because of their deaths, the roots reintegrated into Anbu, and Yamanaka Masawa was taken by Akamichi to pick generals from the dwarf because of his family background. , Making him the new minister of Anbu, the former third-in-command of Reagan became one of Konoha’s genuine high-level officials.

The change of destiny is so wonderful and interesting!

Zong Xian looked at this interesting combination in front of him, and couldn’t help but guess what was going on on the front line. It was enough for Minister Anbu to be here. Why did the Minister of the Interrogation Department also appear here?

“Not Cloud Shinobi.”

Akamichi didn’t talk about Fifth Hokage anymore. Although this matter is quite anxious, there is another more urgent matter right now, “It’s Rock Shinobi.”



“Rock Shinobi?”

Jiraiya frowned.

Just coping with the northern Cloud Shinobi’s attack Konoha is already quite difficult. If Rock Shinobi has any changes at this time, wouldn’t Konoha have to fight in two lines again?”Did Rock Shinobi go south?” Zongxian asked without a look. Compared to Jiraiya, who had been wandering outside the village’s power center, he actively moved closer to the power center and successfully made himself a member of the center. He knew Rock Shinobi’s The change is just something that must happen. The only question is when will it happen?

“Rock Shinobi hasn’t moved south yet, but it’s almost the same. Our spy placed in Rock Shinobi sent back a secret report. Cloud Shinobi and Rock Shinobi have messengers with each other. Third Tsuchikage is ready to go south to attack us by himself.” It’s also a headache for Akamichi to take the wind.

Although this was anticipated long ago, it cannot change Konoha’s current shortage of troops. It is already hard enough to block Cloud Shinobi. At this time, there are not enough troops to fight Rock Shinobi, even though it was in three wars. Rock Shinobi also suffered heavy losses at the time, and should not be able to mobilize too many troops, but it is more than capable of fighting Konoha on the two fronts.

“Ohnoki? That old guy’s dust escape is quite tricky!”

Jiraiya couldn’t help showing a headache when he mentioned the old and hardened Third Tsuchikage. He had faced the dust of Third Generation in the past. The terrible destructive power he still remembers is still fresh. It is comparable to Tailed Beast Bomb.

“Is Rock Shinobi going south? The border defense forces in the northeast will definitely not be able to defend, but the village… can’t squeeze out more troops now, right?”

“The problem is not just that.”

Akamichi took the wind and sighed, and he waved his hand, “Lujiu, you can explain it!”

“not only that?”

Zong Xian raised his eyebrows suspiciously, and cast his gaze on Nara Lujiu, waiting for the wise man from Nara’s family to explain.

“The spy that we planted in Iwagakure was originally a member of the root.” Nara Shikahisa briefly said, and then threw a question to Zongxuan, “I don’t know Minister Uchiha, have you ever heard of the walking maiden?”

“Walking Miko? Are you talking about Konoha’s legendary spy? Is it possible that she is the spy lurking in Iwagakure?”

Before Zong Xian could answer, Jiraiya took a surprised mouth.

For a spy, being famous is not a good thing strictly speaking, it means that it will be subject to the focus of the enemy’s investigation, but if it can enjoy a great reputation while concealing its true identity, then this is undoubtedly a top-notch. Spy.

The walking witch,

It is the legend in the legend.

As a well-known legend Konoha, she had such a name at the end of the Second Ninja War, but the enemy tracers did not get any other names except for identifying her as a female. , Age, appearance are all a mystery.

Later, the witch was active in the intelligence community, wandering around Sunagakure, Iwagakure, Cloud Shinobi Village, and collected a lot of important information, which greatly helped the frontline war.Without the activeness of the spies represented by this maiden, even if Konoha could win World War II and World War III, he would have to pay a heavier price.

“That’s right, before Shimura Danzō was defeated, many spies, including the walking maiden, had already been sent to Iwagakure. This time the information was passed back by the maiden…” Here, Nara Luji paused for two seconds, and then said: “However, now, we suspect that perhaps the spy planted in Iwagakure in the village may have been exposed.”

“Exposed?”

Zong Xian was puzzled, “Did our legendary horse stumble?”

“No, there is a problem here in the village.” Nara Lujiu smiled helplessly, “Some time ago, the root organization disbanded and the process of merging with Anbu was not without waves. A considerable number of Danzo’s diehards made trouble. Little trouble, patriarch Uchiha should still have an impression, right?”

Zong Xian’s jaw gently.

Nara Lujiu continued: “The problem was at that time. At that time, the internal chaos gave many village spies the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Rock Shinobi’s spies took advantage of the chaos and stole a copy of the root organization that we had planted in each village. Spy List… If it weren’t for Director Itoi to interrogate this piece of information from a Rock Shinobi spy whose identity was discovered, we probably wouldn’t know the leaked list until now.”

“This kind of stuff can flow out? What does Anbu eat?”

Zongxian couldn’t help but interrupted Nara Shikahisa’s words.

The newly appointed Minister Anbu and Director Itoi of the Interrogation Department stood there as silent as a person.

“Clan Uchiha, Anbu was technically quite chaotic at the time.” Nara Lu said helplessly. The Fifth Generation agency Hokage did not succeed in accordance with the tradition, and it was not even the rush to the throne after the violent death of the first generation, but to overthrow it. The Third Generation seized power.

Even if it is a smooth succession, it is necessary to change the administrative team. The Akamichi who seizes power will naturally take over Anbu, the most important department of power, in the shortest time. The unavoidable cleansing has caused Anbu to fall into unavoidable chaos. ······

“······I see.”

Zong Xian was also quick to talk, and soon he remembered the situation at the time. Because of the chaos in Anbu, the police department really spent a lot of energy to maintain the order and stability of the village. Instead of looking into the past, he asked directly: “That said, the walking maiden may have been exposed under Rock Shinobi’s eyelids? It has been so many months?”


“It shouldn’t be there yet.”

Nara Shikahisa explained: “The witch who walked first can pass back information proving that she should have not been discovered by Rock Shinobi. The list that Rock Shinobi stolen is not complete. They are all single-line contacts, but that can’t be said to be truly safe… The walking Miko noticed that the wind was not in the right direction. The information passed back also said that she would choose to escape soon, hoping that the village could be on the border. Respond.”

“So, you want to send someone to meet this walking witch?”

“Yes.”

Anbu’s new minister nodded, “Even if you can’t save people alive, try to bring the body back. If you can’t even recover the body, you must ensure that the body is completely destroyed and not left to Rock Shinobi. .”

These words are quite ruthless.

However, it is not difficult to understand. Even Jiraiya frowned unhappy when he heard these words, but did not deny the correctness of these words. Not to mention being captured alive, even if it was just the corpse of a legendary spy, it was also an important secret. Intelligence, there are too many secrets in his mind, and they must never fall into Rock Shinobi’s hands.

“Save or kill?”

Zong Xian rubbed his eyebrows. He didn’t know much about the walking maiden. Even the memory of the previous life was only a brief mention, but he remembered that the maiden died because of Danzo’s methods. In the hands of Yakushi Kabuto, it led to the Blacken of Yakushi Kabuto, who was bewitched by Orochimaru and joined his subordinates, and became a small BOSS that Naruto will face in the future.

Now Shimura Danzō is finished, and the walking maiden is still alive. It doesn’t matter whether Yakushi Kabuto will be Blacken or not!

There is a Yakushi Kabuto,

What if you put it under Orochimaru? There is no fear in the face of Orochimaru himself, Zun Xuan.

“I probably understand what happened, but Master Hokage, are you looking for me because you want me to visit the land of the earth myself?” Zong Xian looked at the Fifth Generation who had been silent for a while sitting on the chair. Acting for Hokage, he doesn’t even want to do such small things.

If he has to do everything himself, why should he be the patriarch or minister?

“That’s not enough.”

Akamichi waved his hand for the wind, and quickly denied it.

“In response to the walking maidens, I want to form an elite team. For this reason, I want to ask Zongxian-kun for your opinion, and Rock Shinobi is going south. We should also raise our troops as soon as possible and decide who is the commander… ····” Akamichi couldn’t help but sighed while talking.

This force is really hard to raise!

The civilian ninjas can’t scrape anymore, and the Sarutobi, Shimura and other families are almost drained. If you continue, you can only allow the students of the ninja school to graduate early, or you can continue to scrape people from other families in the village, don’t Not to mention, Hyuga, Uchiha, Yuzu Tomb and Ino–Shika–Chō, these families can definitely mobilize another wave of troops.

at this point,

Akamichi knows best about it!

After all, he is from the Akamichi family.

“That’s the case, so that I want Jiraiya-senpai to come here in the hope that Jiraiya-senpai will be the commander in command of the battle against Rock Shinobi?” Zongxian understood why even Jiraiya was called over.
