Chapter 97: The Glory of the Hokage

"You two." Jiraiya was shocked and looked at the two young Konoha ninjas in front of him with an incredible expression.

"What are you doing? Don't you see that Hokage-sama is in danger?"

"Actually, we saw it. Master Jiraiya. But how should I put it? The Hokage should be one of the strongest ninjas in a village. He exists to protect the village, right?

The Hokage is threatened and needs protection. So who will protect the millions of Konoha villagers who are threatened now?"

"......" Jiraiya opened his mouth, but found it difficult to refute this 'wrong idea' for a moment.

"Did you two betray Konoha?"

"Betraying Konoha. We both fought for Konoha from the beginning to the end. How did you know that we betrayed Konoha?"

"Your Hokage was attacked right there, and you two stood here and watched. Isn't that a betrayal of Konoha?"

"No, it's not. At best, this can only mean that we betrayed the Hokage. But it cannot be said that we betrayed Konoha. After all, the Hokage is only the guardian of Konoha and cannot represent all of Konoha. Don't you agree, Master Jiraiya?"

Jiraiya had not expected Aoba's mouth cannon to be so strong, even though he was also good at it. But when he saw that his teacher was isolated and having a hard time, he couldn't help but get angry.

"Behind you is Konoha's Sandaime Hokage, my teacher. I say again, you two get out of my way. I absolutely cannot watch my teacher die in front of me."

Jiraiya had already begun to gather his chakra and was ready to attack. The two ninjas in front of him were both very difficult to deal with. He was ready to go all out, even if it meant killing people.

However, Aoba seemed not to notice Jiraiya's murderous intent. He just stood there and talked to himself.

"Why not. Was it just hard for your teacher to watch him die?

Look at Kakashi next to you. When he was ten years old, he watched his father die.

On the first day Uzumaki Naruto was born, he watched his parents die in front of him.

Uchiha Sasuke was eight years old and watched his entire clan die in front of him.

When Neji Hyuga was seven years old, he watched his father die in front of him.

How come these young people, these children can accept it? But the famous toad sage Jiraiya can't accept that his teacher died in front of him?"

Kamikawa Aoba's voice was like a needle that pierced Jiraiya's heart. He opened his mouth but could only utter one word.

"you......"

Zai Lai was furious, but he couldn't refute it. At this time, he finally understood what happened. Why was there no helper around the Hokage?

The Ino-Shika-cho who was closest to the Hokage was gone, the Hyuga clan was gone, Kakashi, Kamikawa Aoba, these elite jonin were gone. Uchiha... Uchiha was gone.

Even for the Anbu, the number of people coming was far from enough.

Everything showed an extremely cruel fact. In the entire Konoha Village, too many people were waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen to die.

Jiraiya had not been in the village for many years, so he didn't know how things turned out like this. But he couldn't refute the examples Aoba had given just now.

The death of the Fourth Hokage and his wife might not be Sarutobi Hiruzen's fault, but he also heard about Naruto's childhood experiences. This is not what a Hokage should do.

There is also White Fang, Hizashi, and Uchiha. When you think about it, the old man actually made so many mistakes in Konoha.

For a moment, Jiraiya couldn't even believe that Sarutobi Hiruzen was once his teacher. He didn't know when he had become someone he didn't recognize.

"...Aoba, Kakashi. I have no way to defend myself against what you accuse me of. But I'm sorry, he's my teacher. No matter what, I won't stand here and watch. I'm sorry."

Jiraiya raised his hand to attack.

But at this time Qingye suddenly waved his hand and threw a document to him.

"Before you do anything, Master Jiraiya, please take a look at this."

Jiraiya took it and looked at it, and saw the Root and Hokage seals printed on it.

"This is......"

He opened the file with shaking hands. Inside were all kinds of inhumane human experiments. And the subjects of the experiments were actually the children in Konoha Orphanage.

There were even quite a few ninjas from the village. Jiraiya quickly flipped through the books and found that over the years, all the major ninja clans were forced to hand over some of their young people to Danzo. Most of them disappeared quietly.

Finally, there are the Uchiha.

Regarding the plan against Uchiha, it has the signatures of the Hokage and several advisors.

The content of the plan is that if things cannot be done, then no matter what means, an extreme blow will be dealt to Uchiha!!!

These are just a small part. Jiraiya even saw the data of Orochimaru's original human experiments.

Looking at the thick documents in his hand, Jiraiya felt a black screen before his eyes.

If these things were to get out, Sarutobi Hiruzen's reputation would be ruined for the rest of his life.

"What... are you planning to do?" Jiraiya gave up the idea of ​​attacking. The opponent was so well prepared that he almost gave up struggling.

"It's not what I want. Master Jiraiya, this is a choice. You can make the choice for Sarutobi Hiruzen now.

He can die as a Hokage, a ninja, in battle. Or I can publish all of this stuff. Let him lose everything in his old age."

Jiraiya couldn't describe his feelings at this moment. With his current strength, there were not many places in the entire ninja world that he couldn't go to. Not many people were qualified to fight him.

But facing Kamikawa Aoba, he didn't even have the courage to take action.

He looked up at Sarutobi Hiruzen in the distance.

The other party also noticed the situation here. Seeing Kamikawa Aoba and Kakashi stopping Jiraiya, he understood everything in his heart.

This is the time to atone for yourself.

He looked at Jiraiya from a distance and shook his head gently. Then, he turned around.

"Orochimaru, don't think you can do whatever you want with these forbidden techniques that desecrate the dead. Today I will let you know the meaning of the existence of Hokage."

Weihaisizi, Xumaosiwuyou.

The last chakra was split into three. Two shadow clones attacked, grabbed the two impure earth bodies, and directly devoured their souls into the stomach of the god of death.

Sarutobi Hiruzen himself rushed towards Orochimaru and pierced his chest with a kunai. But as a price, Sarutobi Hiruzen grabbed Orochimaru's hands.

This attack completely made Orochimaru lose his composure.

The Impure World Reincarnation lost contact. And I myself couldn't move.

"How is this possible? What kind of magic is this?"

"Don't think you're the only one who knows forbidden techniques, Orochimaru. Look carefully, this is the real forbidden technique, the last glory of the Hokage, the Demonic Fuujin!!"
