Now, qun893玖 is actually saying that the mastermind behind the kidnapping case was Danzo 64.
Jiraiya felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders.
Jiraiya was fully aware of the emotional entanglement between the Third Hokage and Orochimaru.
Orochimaru was exceptionally talented from a young age, mastering all kinds of ninjutsu with ease.
They were also the master's favorite students, so their relationship was naturally very good.
Orochimaru's arrogant personality is why his master chose Minato.
In fact, Jiraiya was unaware that the Third Hokage had initially intended for Orochimaru to become the Fourth Hokage.
However, Danzo recommended Orochimaru, and the two cooperated closely.
Orochimaru is too powerful and has an extremely independent mind, so he is not subject to anyone's control.
Even the Third Hokage was no exception.
Therefore, the third generation ultimately chose Minato Namikaze, a commoner with no connections...
After all, water gates are easier to control.
However, none of the three generations had anticipated this.
Orochimaru was too arrogant and couldn't handle stimulation, so he went straight into darkness to pursue his truth.
Finally, the baby kidnapping case broke out, and Orochimaru never explained it.
In the end, Orochimaru's departure was less about the position of Hokage and more about the loss of the position.
Rather, what he couldn't tolerate was the distrust of him by the three generations.
Orochimaru's so-called Konoha Crush plan was like a child showing off his achievements to an adult.
Or perhaps they didn't want to see the Third Hokage die a rotten death here.
Even after he finally killed the Third Hokage, he still shed tears.
Jiraiya had dealt with Kawasaki before, and although the encounter was unpleasant, Jiraiya believed this information.
"Alright then, I'll pass the message on to Orochimaru."
Jiraiya's nonchalant expression also changed slightly.
The Third Hokage waved his hand.
"Go see Naruto before you leave, that kid's in the Ninja Academy now."
Jiraiya nodded and disappeared from the office.
...
Jiraiya emerged from the Hokage Building and, to avoid causing chaos, deliberately used a transformation technique.
He became an ordinary Konoha ninja.
It was afternoon, and the ninja academy had not yet let out for the day.
After greeting the ANBU members monitoring Naruto, Jiraiya found a good spot.
Jiraiya looked over and saw Naruto, with his fluffy blond hair and a few whisker-like tattoos on his face, practicing intently on the training ground.
They started by running, then had to overcome obstacles, jump over pits, and walk across ropes.
These are the basic skills for developing physical strength and coordination.
Iruka was leading the way, explaining things to everyone as he ran.
"When you graduate and carry out missions in the future, you will encounter all kinds of terrain problems, so you need to adapt to all of this now."
Closely following behind was Sasuke, who ran incredibly fast, his face serious and meticulous in every aspect of training.
From jumping over the pit to walking on the rope, Sasuke's movements were standard and fluid, clearly showing that he had practiced at home.
The others were different; children from large ninja families were mostly at the forefront.
Children from ordinary families seemed somewhat overwhelmed by this kind of training.
Some fell into the pit and cried incessantly, while others fell off the rope and couldn't get up for a long time. Such situations were common.
Of course, some children from large ninja families are slow runners, like Choji Akimichi...
Among the ordinary people, Naruto stands out the most. He is particularly dedicated to training and always remembers the expectations his senior Kawasaki had for him.
Therefore, even though Naruto often falls into pits or slips off ropes.
He would also quickly get up and desperately chase after Sasuke and the others.
After three rounds, only half of the students had completed the task.
Naruto, with his strong will, squeezed into the bottom of the first tier, finishing ninth.
This made Jiraiya, who was hiding in the tree, very pleased.
Naruto is really hardworking and sensible.
After the training session, Coach Iruka announced the rankings and gave everyone free time.
Iruka walked over to Naruto and asked, "Naruto, are you alright?"
Naruto had just given it his all, falling and getting scrapes all over his body.
He looked up at Iruka and smiled: "Teacher Iruka, I'm fine, it's just some minor injuries."
Iruka gently patted Naruto's shoulder: "Naruto, you did very well this time, but be careful next time and don't push yourself too hard."
Naruto gave a thumbs-up and assured, "Don't worry, Iruka, I'll definitely get first place in the next training session!"
"Naruto, come play the game!"
Calls came from afar.
"Teacher Iruka, I'm going to play."
Naruto ran off before Iruka could finish speaking.
Seeing that Naruto was indeed alright, Iruka could only shake his head helplessly.
"Let's play a game of catching the bad guys!"
"Then I'll be a policeman!"
"I want to be a policeman too!"
"Then I'll just have to pretend to be Jiraiya. Come and get me!"
Jiraiya silently thanked Kawasaki while on the tree, and then left the ninja academy.
He didn't want to stay in Konoha for even a second longer!
...
With the dissolution of Root and Jiraiya's departure.
Konoha seemed to have returned to its former glory.
Even without the Uchiha's bodyguards, things remained well-organized under the Hyuga clan's management.
Many people didn't notice the Uchiha shops in Konoha's Eighth Street.
All the small restaurants have quietly closed down, preparing for renovations.
Meanwhile, news occasionally came from the Land of Water about the powerful clans there who possessed bloodline limits.
The Yuki clan, dissatisfied with the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, attempted to assassinate him.
After the assassination attempt failed, Yagura was seriously injured and retired, which was followed by a severe purge of the various bloodline families in the Land of Water.
Many Hidden Mist Village ninjas began to flee.
The Land of Water is remote, and news of it has become increasingly scarce since it closed itself off from the world.
What exactly happened in Zhongwu Village is not very clear to the outside world.
Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage of the Sand Village, was hastily appointed during the Third Shinobi World War, and his foundation was initially unstable.
After the war, he consolidated his position through his strength and devoted himself to developing the village's economy.
3. He used his Magnet Release: Gold Sand Bloodline Limit to pan for gold in the desert.
7 brought considerable income to Sunagakure Village, and the village entered a stage of stable development.
1. In Amegakure, located at the crossroads of several countries, Hanzo the Salamander, having lost his fighting spirit and indulged in pleasure, has been dealt with by Nagato!
7. From then on, Amegakure entered an era under Nagato's rule...
Chapter 53 Eternal Kaleidoscope! Contract Seal... Released!
9. Deidara, a genius boy from Iwagakure, became a rogue ninja after leaving the village due to his insubordination.
The village of Yiyan was depleted of talent, leaving only Onoki to shoulder the burden.
During this period, Kawasaki focused on supporting the Uchiha's business development.
9. Initially, when he asked the commoner Uchiha to change his business, he encountered a lot of resistance.
But Kawasaki showed off his culinary skills and hosted a banquet, where Chinese cuisine instantly won over everyone.
Unique ingredient handling techniques and explosive flavors made the Uchiha clan a die-hard fan of Chinese cuisine.
Kawasaki had planned this all along, having them renovate the store.
Kawasaki focused more on communicating with Orochimaru.
Through the Radiant Moon Summoning Beast, the two exchanged information daily, in addition to Itachi and Shisui's initial reports.
The rest of the discussion mainly involved Orochimaru and Kawasaki.
Kawasaki had high hopes for this top scientist in the ninja world.
Many of his plans require Orochimaru's support.
Kawasaki even told Orochimaru about some things that weren't part of the plan.
After learning that a major upheaval would occur in the ninja world in the future, Orochimaru became even more nervous.
With experiments conducted daily, there was no time left to manage the Sound Village.
