Chapter 111: Three Ninjas Reunited

Then we found Tsunade. It wasn't difficult.

Or it is not difficult for a top ninja like Jiraiya. But it is a bit difficult to bring Tsunade back.

Apart from anything else, when Jiraiya found Tsunade, she was killing everyone in the casino...well, being killed by everyone.

Tsunade's reaction to the death of the Third Generation was very cold. She had been disappointed with this village a long time ago.

He didn't have much affection for the Third Generation. Of course, the most critical problem for Jiraiya was that he had no money to pay Tsunade back.

Shizune fully supports Tsunade-sama returning to be Hokage. Unfortunately, her words are really useless.

After Tsunade had emptied Jiraiya's wallet, she sat in the tavern contentedly and began to drink.

Jiraiya sat in front of her again.

"Why, you haven't given up yet? Give up, I won't go back with you."

"Really? I just want to tell you some facts. Tsunade, Kamikawa Aoba is a very dangerous man. If he were to take control of Konoha, I don't know what would happen. He might start the Fourth Shinobi World War."

"Then let's fight. From what you said, he is a very powerful person, maybe he can unify the ninja world?"

"Tsunade, don't you understand? Once the Ninja World War is launched, how many innocent people will die in the war. What we should do is to ensure peace, not to start a war."

"Haha, Jiraiya, you are such an idiot. You still don't understand why Kamikawa Aoba asked me to be the Hokage. He just said a few words to stimulate you to carry out this mission. But you don't know what the root of the mission is."

Just like in the original plot, there was not much display of Karin and Sakura's talents. Tsunade's political ability was not shown much either.

But the reality is that Tsunade, who saw through the true nature of Konoha and left, has a political awareness many times stronger than Jiraiya.

Jiraiya, who has been troubled by a toad's prophecy for most of his life, is not comparable to Tsunade in this respect.

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that Konoha is in a state of disrepair right now. Whoever becomes Hokage at this time will have to face a lot of troubles.

When the current Hokage has resolved all the issues, he will be able to easily establish a stable Konoha. To put it bluntly, it is obvious that they are asking me to go back to deal with the mess.

You idiot, you actually want to convince me with reason. Jiraiya, no wonder you can't beat Kamikawa Aoba."

"......" Tsunade said this, Jiraiya suddenly felt that he was indeed an idiot. But the most uncomfortable thing was that even if he knew Kamikawa Aoba's real purpose, he still hoped that Tsunade would go back.

It's not just for Konoha, but also for his own selfish reasons. It can be said that Qingye's move is a complete conspiracy. Whether he sees through it or not, he has to continue to do it.

"Tsunade..." Jiraiya was about to say something when he suddenly looked towards the door. At the same time, Tsunade also turned her head and looked in the same direction.

I don't know when two people appeared at the door, Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi.

Jiraiya subconsciously began to be on guard. But Tsunade had no intention of taking action, but directly poured a glass of wine and pushed it in the direction of Orochimaru.

Tsunade has mixed feelings towards Orochimaru. It stands to reason that Orochimaru killed the Third Generation, so Tsunade should hate him. But in reality, that is not the case. Tsunade has no desire to avenge the Third Generation at all.

"Let's have a drink together. It's been a while since the three of us have sat together."

"Tsunade you..." Jiraiya felt a little incredible when he saw Tsunade's expression.

"He is the one who killed the teacher. How could you......"

"Really? Have you ever counted how many times we have saved each other in our ninja careers?"

Orochimaru ignored Jiraiya's murderous gaze and sat down next to Tsunade, but he didn't take the glass of wine.

Tsunade was observant and glanced at his hands.

"Injured? The old man still has some skills."

"It is a ninjutsu called Shiki Fuujin. I have never seen it before. No matter what method I use, I can't heal my hands. Tsunade, if there is anyone in this world who can heal me, it can only be you, Tsunade."

Orochimaru was the best in all kinds of strange research, but when it came to medical ninjutsu, he had to admit that Tsunade was the best in the world.

"Shiki Fuujin? Forget it. It can't be cured. It's not something that can be solved by medical ninjutsu."

Tsunade's words directly blocked Orochimaru's possibility. This made Orochimaru's body tremble slightly, and he almost couldn't control his emotions.

"Why, even you can't do it? Tsunade, your sealing technique and medical ninjutsu are equally advanced. Even you can't do it?"

"Haha, you know what? Orochimaru, originally there was someone in this world who could save you. But now there is no one."

Orochimaru thought for a moment, then spoke.

"The Whirlpool Clan?"

"That's right, the Uzumaki clan. The Demonic Seal itself is one of the highest achievements of the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique. We know the concepts involved, but we don't know why.

Therefore, in the current Konoha, although there are people who can use this ninjutsu, no one can successfully analyze it, let alone crack it. If the old man uses this trick, he will risk his life. If it can be cracked casually, it will not be the highest level of Konoha's forbidden technique. "

Orochimaru's face became completely gloomy. He didn't expect that Tsunade was also powerless to do anything about it.

He didn't think Tsunade would lie to him. Orochimaru knew Tsunade very well. She might not like him, but she would never lie when it came to her profession.

"That's such a shame."

Orochimaru finished speaking and stood up to leave. But at this time, Jiraiya blocked his way. Tsunade not taking action did not mean that Jiraiya would forgive Orochimaru.

"stop."

Facing the angry Jiraiya, Orochimaru regained that mocking smile on his face.

"Jiraiya, why are you going to kill me to avenge the old man?"

"Orochimaru, you betrayed the village and killed your teacher. Your crime is unforgivable. Come back to Konoha with me immediately to stand trial."

Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru angrily, as if he was going to fight him if they didn't agree. But in fact, Orochimaru didn't want to fight him.

Under normal circumstances, he would not be afraid of Jiraiya. But now, without his hands, he could not perform ninjutsu. Although he could let Kabuto perform most of the jutsu on his behalf.

But the cooperation between the two of them, whether in terms of speed or tacit understanding, could never be compared to the original version of himself. Moreover, Kabuto was not himself after all. The amount of chakra was a bit different.

If I really fight with Jiraiya, it won’t be so easy to get away.
