Chapter 684 Whose handiwork

Konoha was suddenly exposed to so much darkness.

Let all the Ninja Village enjoy the melon.

There may be shadows in other ninja villages who lust for power, but they can do it for the sake of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

It's also the only one.

After all, the Senju Clan, which destroyed the clan that founded the village, persecuted many of the pillars of Konoha in succession.

It can be said that the Konoha F4 members with Sarutobi Hiruzen as the core are the main reason for the decline of Konoha Village.

News about such a big matter came out like a whirlwind, and Jiraiya naturally received the news.

He hurried back to Konoha.

No one informed him of the news in advance, and Orochimaru had not said before that he would take action against the Sarutobi clan.

Now when I suddenly received the news, I was completely shocked.

As Jiraiya, who has been collecting intelligence all year round, he can only know a little bit about the darkness of Konoha.

But he never got to the bottom of it.

The news exposed this time was unexpected by Jiraiya.

Danzo said it before and said it now, they are two different things.

Moreover, the matter of Hatake Sakumo and the matter of embezzling Kushina's property has changed over time, and even Jiraiya is not clear about it.

Jiraiya has already seen that Orochimaru has never trusted the Sarutobi clan from the beginning to the end.

The reason why the Sarutobi clan was reused before was entirely to lure out all the Sarutobi clan.

The question now is what Orochimaru plans to do with these Sarutobi tribesmen.

With Orochimaru's skills, Jiraiya was really worried that Orochimaru would kill all these people, or use them as materials for human experiments.

When Jiraiya rushed back to Konoha after a long journey, Konoha's security team.

Basically, most of the Sarutobi clan members were arrested or fired due to malfeasance and complaints.

Although the news of Jiraiya's return to Konoha reached the two Hokage immediately.

Jiraiya didn't come to the Hokage immediately, but went to the police station.

In the guard team, only a few were from the Sarutobi tribe, and the others were from the Hyuga tribe.

They were brought back urgently to maintain order in Konoha.

Except for the Hyuga clan, the three clans of Inar, Deer, and Butterflies each sent many of their clansmen back.

Prevent possible unrest.

The Sarutobi clan is also in chaos. The three elders have different thoughts. Sarutobi Asma went out and has not come back yet.

Sarutobi Daigo used to be in charge of the internal affairs of the Sarutobi clan, but now such a big thing has happened.

With his ability, he can only constantly warn his tribe members not to cause trouble, not to cause trouble.

Orochimaru is very scary. Now he is just investigating the Sarutobi clan. If any Sarutobi clan member dares to cause trouble, they will probably be exterminated.

Now everyone in the Sarutobi clan was like quail, cowering. Everyone didn't know what Orochimaru was planning to do, so they didn't dare to speak.

The Sarutobi tribesmen in the police force were also miserable.

Sarutobi Ryuunosuke is a relatively capable person of the younger generation. After entering the police force, he was immediately promoted to captain.

After all the Hyuga clan withdrew from the guard force, the guard force was managed by Ryunosuke.

Now Orochimaru suddenly attacked the Sarutobi clan without any warning.

Guard teams were brought in every day to investigate.

The people investigating the security team were the Anbu, directly affiliated with the Hokage, and Hiki Morino from the Interrogation Department.

Orochimaru's principle of employing people is to be loyal to him, not to principles.

And Morino Ida, whom Naruto and others brought back before, has become Morino Ihiki's weakness.

In fact, not all Sarutobi clan members were treacherous and evil people who were taken away for investigation.

As long as they haven't done anything bad, they will be released directly.

But the Sarutobi tribesmen who had been exiled before suddenly gained power, basically no one was clean.

Now in the police force, the place with the largest number of Sarutobi people is in the detention room.

The detention cells are almost full now.

All were punished for disciplinary violations.

What's even more serious is being thrown directly into prison.

While the number of people in the guard force was decreasing, people from the Hyuga clan and Ino Shikacho were constantly being added.

As a result, the Sarutobi tribesmen in the guard team were all panic-stricken.

When Jiraiya arrived at the guard station, this was what he saw.

"It's Jiraiya-sama!"

"It's Jiraiya-sama!"

"Jiraiya-sama is back!"

The Sarutobi tribe stood up one after another. They still knew that Jiraiya was also the apprentice of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Jiraiya is back and he can always talk.

"Isn't this Lord Jiraiya? What kind of wind brought you back?"

Hyuga Yuto was enthusiastic when he saw Jiraiya coming.

When Jiraiya saw the Hyuga Yuto in front of him, he felt that his blood pressure was about to rise. Why was it him again?

"Where is Hizashi? I want to see him?"

Yongto shook his head: "Currently the security team is conducting a thorough search for borers. Hizashi-sama is very busy. I don't know where Hizashi-sama has gone."

Jiraiya frowned slightly and just lowered his voice and said:

"How many Sarutobi clan members will be investigated?"

Yongto did not lower his voice at all and deliberately said loudly:

"Oh! Lord Jiraiya wants to know how many Sarutobi clan members will be investigated."

"All the Sarutobi clan members will be investigated! Of course! The two Hokages will not wrongly accuse the Sarutobi clan members."

"As long as the Sarutobi clan members have not committed any crime, they have been released."

Jiraiya frowned and looked at the Sarutobi tribe next to him, whose numbers had dropped sharply.

Next to him, Sarutobi Ryuunosuke immediately came up and said, "Jiraiya-sama."

Jiraiya waved to him: "Come with me."

He wanted to get a side view of the situation in the village.

Yuto seemed to know what Jiraiya meant, and smiled without saying anything.

Jiraiya took Ryunosuke to a secluded place outside and began to ask questions:

"What's going on? Why did Orochimaru suddenly attack you?"

Ryuzosuke looked bitter:

"I didn't know that in this high-level meeting, the Fifth Hokage dismissed all the elders in the clan."

"Not only must all the properties be returned, but every member of the police force must be investigated."

"In just a few days, our police force has been screened, and half of them have been imprisoned for violating laws and discipline."

"Some of those who have been complained are now in the detention room. The shortest period is one month."

"but……"

Ryunosuke hesitated for a moment: "The Sarutobi clan members in ANBU were not investigated, but all were sent back."

Jiraiya frowned and thought, "Did Orochimaru kill anyone?"

Ryunosuke shook his head: "The Fifth Hokage did not kill anyone, but the most serious thing now is the real estate problem."

"Two years ago, the Fifth Hokage began to sell a group of houses to us through loans. What he said at the time was that they would provide a place for us, the Sarutobi clan, to stay."

"Now it is suddenly discovered that the Third Hokage has embezzled the inheritance of the Fourth Hokage."

"The largest number of them are the properties above Xuzun, Hanlu, Omi, and Zaixi, which span five streets."

"These properties happen to be the ones sold to us by the Fifth Hokage before."

"Now we must return all the inheritance to the Fourth Hokage."

"Now that we have lost our house, we still owe the Fifth Hokage a large amount of money, and our lives are almost unbearable."

After hearing this, Jiraiya muttered to himself that this way of doing things seemed incompatible with Orochimaru's.

Whose handiwork is it?

In any case, it's a good thing that Orochimaru didn't kill people wantonly.

"I understand. You can work peacefully while I go check on the situation and wait for Asma to come back."

"Thank you, Jiraiya-sama!"
