Chapter 421 Gap
Konoha Village
The current patrol officers are all members of the Sarutobi clan.
They were ANBU originally.
But now they have taken off their masks and no one else knows.
Sarutobi Asuma was very busy.
These people from the Sarutobi clan have never been in the police force at all.
Processing of things is also slow and disorganized.
As a result, Asma kept running around and was very tired every day.
I also smoked pack after pack of cigarettes.
Compared to being physically exhausted, his mind was more riddled with holes.
His father, Sarutobi Hiruzen, died suddenly.
Asuma didn't even understand the basic situation of the battle.
Asuma didn't know why Tsunade was there.
Dad will die.
Asuma wasn't sitting in an office, but patrolling the streets of Konoha.
There were also two members of the Sarutobi clan with him.
Although, Asuma hasn't seen them either.
A figure turned around the corner, it was Kurenai Yuhi.
She was holding a bento in her hand.
"I can't find you anywhere. You haven't eaten yet."
Asma crushed the cigarette butt:
"How did you come?"
"I can just eat whatever I want outside."
Asuma's tone was gentle. Although he looked tired, he still smiled after seeing Kurenai Yuhi.
"Hideki, Furukawa, you two go on patrol first, I will come find you later."
Sarutobi Hideki and Furukawa nodded and stopped being light bulbs here.
"Asuma-sama, let's go first."
Asuma followed Yuhi Kurenai to a bench on the street and opened her lunch box.
"Ah, it's my favorite sausage and yam cold noodles."
Asuma sighed.
"Thank you, Hong, for being so busy lately and still worrying about me."
Yuhi Hong shook her head slightly:
"Don't think so much. Godaime-sama will tell you after investigating."
"There's no use worrying now."
Asuma picked up a sausage with flowers cut into it and put it in his mouth.
The salty, sweet and caramel flavor spreads in your mouth.
Asuma's mood improved a lot.
"What I know is that Konohamaru's kid can't accept it."
Yuhi Hong consoled:
"Things have happened, and Konohamaru must accept it."
While the two were talking, a shadow blocked them.
Asuma looked up and saw that it was Tsunade. Tsunade smelled of alcohol and looked at Asuma with a frown.
Asuma stood up and said, "Tsunade-sama."
Tsunade glanced at Asuma and said nothing.
She thought of her brother, her boyfriend, and her people.
Just kill Asuma...
But he looked at Asuma who looked a bit confused but also looked respectful.
Then he looked at Yuhi Kurenai, and then his eyes returned to Asuma.
Tsunade just shook her fist and patted Asuma's shoulder.
"Fight Hong well."
Then he rubbed his temples and left.
Asuma didn't know that he was going through hell. He also wanted to ask his father how the Third Hokage died.
"Tsunade-da..."
A soft hand gently covered Asuma's mouth, and Kurenai whispered:
"Tsunade-sama is also in a bad mood."
Asuma was silent for a moment and nodded.
…
Tsunade walked all the way towards the Uchiha clan.
As soon as she left Konoha, she stood still.
"Come out."
Jiraiya looked embarrassed and jumped down from the nearby tree.
"What, are you afraid that I will kill Asuma?"
Tsunade was just upset and drank some wine, but she wasn't drunk.
She had long sensed Jiraiya's proximity.
Jiraiya is usually very thick-skinned.
There won't be any emotions after being exposed.
But this time it's different.
Jiraiya's usually free and easy face looked very embarrassed and embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Tsunade."
Tsunade covered her face with her hands and burped:
"I really want to kill Asuma."
"But I can't do it."
"You are so good at intelligence analysis, why don't you have any information about that old immortal?"
Jiraiya was speechless, he didn't know anything about Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Ever since he went to Mt. Miaomu, he either practiced in Mt. Miaomu or traveled.
From now on, he will only return to Konoha when there is a great war in the ninja world.
All his time and energy were spent on the predictions made by the Great Toad Immortal.
The prophecy said that he would travel to various places and write books, so he went to travel and write books.
The prophecy said that his apprentice would bring changes to the world, so he took the trouble to find several apprentices.
The prophecy said that he would be forced to make a major decision, and he had been waiting for this major decision.
He didn't stand out under Sarutobi Hiruzen's sect, but all his current skills were learned at Myoboku Mountain.
He also has deep feelings for Miaomu Mountain and firmly believes in the predictions made by the Great Toad Immortal.
But looking at it now, he lost a lot because of this prophecy.
I will spend most of my life on this prophecy.
He lost Yahiko, lost Minato, did not participate in Naruto's childhood, and did not realize the darkness of Sarutobi Hiruzen.
He had lost enough, and Tsunade's relationship with him had dropped to a freezing point.
But so far, he still hasn't found the son of prophecy.
Jiraiya was silent, he didn't know what to say to Tsunade.
Tsunade waved her hand: "That's it, don't come to see me."
During the battle that day, the moment Jiraiya blocked Tsunade, there was already a huge gap between them.
Jiraiya looked at Tsunade's walking figure.
It seems that nothing can go back.
…
The Country of Fire is very large and has extremely long borders.
There are always some sentinel points on these borders.
Usually, these sentry posts are occupied by ninjas who have been excluded or punished.
After all, if it weren't for wartime, these sentry posts would basically be of little use.
At the border post of the Kingdom of Fire adjacent to the Kingdom of Kawawa, the Sarutobi clan members who stayed behind suddenly discovered that Konoha's message bird was flying over.
"Strange, why is there a message bird at this time?"
Ryuunosuke Sarutobi curiously took off the scroll from the feet of the information bird.
"How's it going? Does the Third Hokage have any instructions?"
Several Sarutobi tribesmen gathered around.
There are 20 people in this outpost, all of whom are members of the Sarutobi clan.
There are no less than a hundred such posts along the border.
But the Fire Country is so big that evenly distributed, no one knows that these border posts are all members of the Sarutobi family.
It's said to be an outpost, but these Sarutobi tribesmen are just using Konoha's resources to practice.
After reading the information on Infobird, Sarutobi Ryuunosuke's face turned pale.
Others saw it and asked.
"Ryunosuke, what's wrong?"
"What news is coming?"
Ryunosuke swallowed his saliva: "The Third Hokage died in battle."
Many tribesmen were in an uproar. They didn't have to do any tasks, and the fact that they could practice peacefully here was all thanks to the Third Hokage.
"The Third Hokage asked us to wait for instructions from the Fifth Hokage."
Ryunosuke saw some of the key points mentioned in the letter and felt that the entire Sarutobi clan was in turmoil.
Now we can only look at the attitude of the Godaime Hokage towards the Sarutobi clan.
…
