Chapter 34 The Deadline Has Expired
I have to admit that Danzo is very good at training ninjas.
Even in the eyes of Yurobe Gentsuki, these Root ninjas are no worse than the elite ninjas of the Warring States Period, and they are even more cold-blooded and efficient.
It was their bad luck to run into me.
Any ninja below the level of Kage would have a hard time getting any good results in front of these two teams.
"It can be seen that this old sly guy Danzo should have issued an order to capture me, and the priority is very high."
Otherwise, with the discipline of the Root, these ninjas would never completely give up the task of monitoring the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and would do everything they can to capture me.
"Write this account down first."
Hagorbe Gentsuki secretly said this in his heart, looked at the direction of Tansho Street, and his figure flashed and disappeared in the night.
A minute later, Jiraiya appeared here.
Although the fighting between Yurobe Gentsuki and the Root ninjas was suppressed by the hustle and bustle in Tansho Street, it could not be concealed from the existence of the three ninjas.
Tsunade continued to drink, not interested in paying attention.
Only Jiraiya could come alone.
Looking at the eight corpses on the ground, Jiraiya was not in a good mood at the moment.
Although he did not like the style of Danzo and the Root, the Root Ninja was a member of Konoha after all.
In the Land of Fire, someone actually killed eight Konoha ninjas, and it was under his nose. It was an extreme provocation no matter how you look at it.
Jiraiya's face suddenly became serious:
"Is it Orochimaru?"
He thought of his old friend at the first time.
Although Tsunade did not say it, Jiraiya knew very well that before he and Naruto arrived, Tsunade and Orochimaru had met in Tansho Street and talked about something.
It was normal for the other party to linger nearby.
However, in the following time, Jiraiya carefully examined the wounds on the eight Root Ninjas and rejected this.
He was too familiar with Orochimaru's fighting style.
The way these Root Ninjas died did not seem to be done by Orochimaru.
"The other person? He was able to kill eight Root ninjas in a short time without any damage or traces. He must be an extremely difficult guy."
Jiraiya thought with a serious face.
This time, the mission of persuading Tsunade to return to be the fifth Hokage seemed to be much riskier than he thought.
"The little girl next to Tsunade must know something. We can't delay any longer. We must find out the truth as soon as possible." Jiraiya thought.
But before that, since they are from the same village, we must first deal with the bodies of these Root ninjas.
After the night of the destruction of the Root ninjas, everything returned to peace.
As if nothing had happened, Tsunade continued to live a life of gambling, drinking, and sleeping.
Naruto, who bet that he would master the Rasengan within seven days, continued to study this ninjutsu from morning to night.
Although because of Tsunade's order, he was unable to get the details of the transaction with Orochimaru from Shizune.
But Jiraiya, who had heard about the arrival of Hagoromo Gengetsu, besides drinking with Tsunade occasionally, spent more time searching and being alert to the hidden enemies near Tansho Street.
One Orochimaru was already difficult enough for him.
And then there came the legendary Hagoromo Gengetsu.
Jiraiya just felt a headache.
On the other side.
Hagoromo Gengetsu, who also gave Jiraiya a headache, was not in Tansho Street now, but resting in a nearby city.
Although the Impure World Body did not need to rest, a good environment could still make his spirit a lot more comfortable.
The previous series of sightseeing made Hagoromo Gengetsu not know enough about the current ninja world.
Taking advantage of this free time, he took a good look at the world that was very different from the Warring States period he was familiar with.
Seven days later.
Coming out of the cinema, Yuyi Xuanyue, who had just finished watching a movie in the Princess of Wind and Cloud series, said with emotion:
"I didn't expect that today's film technology has developed to this level. Compared with those flops I saw in my previous life, the movie just now is quite exciting."
Today's ninja world not only has rich and colorful ninjutsu, but also has various conveniences and advantages brought by technology.
Compared with the cold underworld, such a good world makes him want to stay more and more.
Yuyi Xuanyue looked up at the scorching sun and calculated the time. Today is the agreed day.
Orochimaru and Tsunade will be there soon, and of course he can't miss this event.
"It's time to leave."
A breeze blew by, and Yuyi Xuanyue's figure disappeared in front of the cinema.
Tansho Street.
It was still the alley where the giant snake broke the wall.
Last night, he deliberately drank with Jiraiya all night, and finally took advantage of his inattention to drug him, so that Tsunade, who had been sleeping, came to this alley alone and chose to meet Orochimaru.
Almost at the same time.
The two appeared on both sides of the alley.
As they approached each other, a hint of doubt flashed in Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils.
"Hagoromo Gengetsu didn't come?"
Coincidentally.
Tsunade, who seemed calm, also glanced around.
After not finding any trace of Hagoromo Gengetsu, her golden eyebrows slightly frowned.
‘Is it only Orochimaru? ’
Hagoromo Gengetsu, who was remembered by Orochimaru and Tsunade, did not come at this time.
After seeing the bet between Tsunade and Naruto, he clearly realized that Orochimaru's deal fell through.
Similarly, his own deal fell through.
He was not interested in getting entangled with the stubborn Tsunade, so he decisively set his target on Shizune.
As for how to do it.
He believed that with the threat of Orochimaru, Shizune would be eager to come to Tsunade's aid.
The Konoha ninjas under the influence of the will of fire all have the concept of not giving up their companions.
So, what kind of choice will they make for their companions?
Hagoromo Gengetsu was looking forward to it.
In order not to affect the meeting the next day, Shizune had been knocked unconscious by Tsunade and slept for a whole night.
If Naruto, who was supposed to sleep for two days, had not been injured while practicing the Rasengan, he would have woken up early due to his physical condition and woke up Shizune on the ground, and she would have been unconscious for even longer.
"Not good! Lady Tsunade!"
After learning the current time from Naruto, Shizune immediately got up and was about to chase her own Lady Tsunade.
At this time, Jiraiya, who was woken up by others and also felt something was wrong, rushed back. Seeing that Tsunade was missing, he said to Shizune with a serious face:
"Shizune, what did you say to Orochimaru? It's almost time to tell me now."
Shizune said gloomily: "I want to believe Lady Tsunade, so I haven't said it. But... There's no time! Please follow me, I'll talk while I run!"
After the voice fell, Shizune, who was in a hurry, ran out quickly.
Jiraiya and Naruto followed closely behind.
In the middle of the way, listening to Shizune telling the whole deal, Naruto took it for granted that the answer should be "NO".
Jiraiya's heart gradually sank.
"Rope Tree. Dan. Orochimaru is really well calculated. We must stop Tsunade as soon as possible, otherwise..."
Jiraiya has already made the worst plan.
But before he can take any action.
The sudden appearance of the uninvited guest in front of him made his face change suddenly.
