Chapter 436 Jiraiya's Purpose

Tsunade, her mortal enemy, actually invited her to live in her home?

Mei Terumi didn't expect Tsunade to say such a thing. After a moment of surprise, she smiled and said:

"Since the Fifth Hokage has invited me so warmly, it would seem petty of me if I don't accept. I also happen to be very curious about the Senju clan that was at its peak in the past, so I will not refuse."

Hearing what Mei Terumi said, Tsunade's face also broke into a bright smile.

But for some reason, Uchiha Qiushan felt some kind of malice directed towards him from Tsunade's smile, which made him shudder.

Mei Terumi and the others were guests after all, and after staying in the Hokage's office for a while, they followed Nara Shikaku away. Mei Terumi was led out by Shizune, probably taking her to Tsunade's residence.

For a moment, Uchiha Qiushan and Tsunade were the only two people left in the Hokage's office.

After everyone left, the smile on Tsunade's face gradually disappeared, and in the end, only a look of silence remained. She looked at Qiu Shanjun who stayed behind with a smile.

Uchiha Qiushan was also uneasy when he saw this. He faked a smile twice before continuing:

"Sister Tsunade, I have things to take care of, so I won't waste your time here."

Hearing Qiu Shanjun's words, Tsunade raised her eyebrows slightly, a smile flashed in her eyes, and then she continued:

"Mr. Qiu Shan, let me tell you something strange. I don't know what happened, but these past few days, the two old guys from the Elders suddenly submitted their resignations to me. Moreover, on the day they resigned, their families also gave up most of the resources they had occupied from Konoha Village. Don't you think it's a bit strange?"

Hearing what Sister Tsunade said, Uchiha Qiushan raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said nonchalantly:

"Maybe they have a change of heart. After all, they know that if they really make you angry, they will definitely settle accounts with them. When that time comes, it won't be as simple as resigning."

When Tsunade heard what Qiu Shanjun said, she glanced at him with a smile before continuing:

"But, according to the intelligence I received, before that, Shimura Danzo seemed to have led the remnants of the Root out of the Root base, but no one knew where he went. About half a day later, he returned to the Root base.

Not long after Shimura Danzo returned, the two old guys came to me and surrendered.

At this point, Tsunade's pretty face had already come close to Uchiha Qiushan, staring at him with a half-smile in her eyes, and she lightly tapped his chest with her bare hand, and said with a smile:

"Qiu Shanjun, you said there is no connection between them. You know, after that old fellow Shimura Danzo was subdued by you and the Root was disbanded, he stayed in the Root base all day and never came out."

Uchiha Qiushan also knew that Sister Tsunade had guessed something, so he reached out and gently tugged on Sister Tsunade's pretty face, then said with some heartache:

"Sister Tsunade, you guessed right. I sent Danzo Shimura out to deal with those two old guys. They took advantage of their age and made things difficult for me, Sister Tsunade. If I wasn't afraid of the bad influence, I would have sent them to see the Second Hokage and let him see these good disciples he taught."

After hearing what Qiu Shanjun said, Tsunade's eyes flashed with emotion, and she took the initiative to lie in his arms. After a long while, she said in a muffled voice:

"I can handle these old guys, but the relationship is too big, so I am a little restrained."

When Uchiha Qiushan heard what Sister Tsunade said, he did not refute it, but just reached out and patted her gently on the back.

After a long while, Sister Tsunade seemed to remember something, crawled out of Qiu Shanjun's arms, and continued:

"Qiu Shanjun, according to the information, Jiraiya may return to Konoha Village soon, but I don't know if his return this time has anything to do with Orochimaru."

Hearing Tsunade's words, Uchiha Qiushan was also slightly stunned, then nodded and said with a smile:

"Sister Tsunade, it seems that you three ninjas of Konoha will gather together in Konoha Village this time. Do you have any thoughts?"

Actually, since Orochimaru defected from Konoha Village, the three of them have basically not met each other again, although they had already had different paths to take, especially Tsunade, who inherited the position of Hokage several years earlier due to the intervention of Uchiha Ooyama.

But, after all, they were all members of the same team before, and they had experienced countless life and death together. This kind of feeling was the strongest and purest, and it was not something that could be given up just like that.

So, after hearing what Qiu Shanjun said, Tsunade's eyes also flashed with nostalgia, and then she continued:

"No matter what their purpose is in coming to Konoha Village this time, as long as they do something that is detrimental to Konoha Village and Qiu Shanjun, they are my enemy, and I will never agree to it."

After hearing what Sister Tsunade said, Qiu Shanjun's eyes flashed with emotion, and then he continued to comfort her:

"In fact, I know something about their purpose. Jiraiya's purpose should be very simple. He should have received some news and came to Konoha Village to look for the child of prophecy."

When Tsunade heard what Qiu Shanjun said, a flash of realization flashed across her eyes.

After so many years, Tsunade has also vaguely guessed what Jiraiya has done over the years. The reason why he has been wandering around the ninja world for so many years, in addition to his lively personality and unwillingness to be constrained, is another major reason, which is to find the child of prophecy according to the instructions of the toad sage in Myoboku Mountain.

It’s a bit funny to say that Jiraiya gave up everything for the so-called child of prophecy, and even stopped protecting his own village.

But in the end, it turned out that the son of prophecy came from his village and was the son of his favorite disciple.

As a master, he did not fulfill his responsibilities at all, and just let Naruto grow like a weed, malnourished.

To be honest, Jiraiya really felt a little sorry for his disciple, Minato Namikaze.

And to be honest, among all the Naruto ninjas, Naruto is the most qualified to turn evil, but in the end he became the son of prophecy who saves the world.

Tsunade had already known the identities of Naruto and Sasuke from Qiu Shanjun. After hearing Qiu Shanjun's words, she nodded and said:

"It seems that he did it for little Naruto. Oh, by the way, it seems that Naruto went to the Land of Waves to carry out a mission. He hasn't come back yet, right?"
