Chapter 205 Support
The Country of Fire, Hidden Leaf Village, Hokage's highest representative hall.

In the inner hall, there is a square table of medium size. There are many documents neatly placed on the table, some thick or thin.

On each side of the square table is a round futon.

The three top managers, Jiraiya, Shimura Danzo, and Mito Monobu, were sitting on their sides, kneeling upright.

In contrast, another newly promoted consultant, Tsunade, just lazily held her head in her hands and looked bored as she attended the event.

At this time, regarding the current situation of the Kingdom of Wind, and the possible derivative impacts that may follow.

The four people present already understood it very clearly.

The decline of Sunagakure Ninja Village cannot be concealed.

Everyone knows this clearly.

However, there was a fierce dispute between several men about how to respond next.

As soon as this person opened his mouth, the gloomy atmosphere that enveloped him made the temperature in the room seem to drop several degrees.

Jiraiya glanced at everyone, but no one spoke, they were all silent.

"Under such a good situation, what on earth are you going to do?!"

"You haven't worked as hard as usual, why are you farting here now?"

"The last time, when the Sunagakure Ninja Village was disarmed, they teamed up with Orochimaru to launch the Konoha Collapse Plan."

Mito Katoyan became emotionally excited in a rare moment.

On the side, Tsunade couldn't help laughing, but she quickly stopped laughing and returned to her serious look again.

In his opinion, the current situation is very good and it is the best time to make a fortune silently.

"Isn't this a good thing? As the most powerful ninja village in Konoha Hidden Village, we just need to open our arms."

"In the past six days, do you know how much the number of mission requests in our Hidden Leaf Village has increased?"

Mito Menyan shook his head and said.

On the side, Shimura Danzo said.

Compared with the calm posture of sitting on the Diaoyutai with ease and ease in the previous years, Mito Kadoyan seemed extremely anxious at this time.

Perhaps it was Xiaochun's resignation that made him realize that his right to speak had declined significantly.

Faced with such a situation, Konoha Hidden Village certainly does not need to take any unnecessary actions.

"Once any of them succeeds, they will support and cultivate new puppet forces.

"When the time comes, the shinobi village that has absorbed Sunagakure's legacy will surely rise to become a new overlord, and it will also pose a huge challenge to the current status and status of Konoha."

On the side, Jiraiya, the fifth generation Hokage wearing a god robe, lazily mocked Danzo Shimura.

“Is supporting a puppet regime something that can be accomplished in one fell swoop?

"But what threat can there be to Sunagakure today? There is only a bunch of rabble left!"

But before he could finish speaking, Danzo Shimura forcefully interrupted his speech and continued:
"According to my intelligence, other ninja villages are already watching with eager eyes! As far as I know, some villages have already sent teams to assassinate the current leader of Sunagakure.

"Yan, you think too simplistically."

"Hmph! At that time, in the Sunagakure Ninja Village, the Fourth Kazekage was still alive, and the jinchūriki were also under their control.

Mito Menyan said sadly.

Mito Menyan said.

I miss my comrade Xiaochun very much in my heart.

"You must strike first!"

"Which faction in the Sunagakure Ninja Village are you closer to? Tell me!

"All the forces from the five major ninja villages are mixed in there. In this case, who do you want to send there?"

Amid everyone's discussion, Sunagakure Ninja Village is already a corpse carrying a rich legacy.

Shimura Danzo also shook his head and said:
"Once Sunagakure Ninja Village becomes difficult to maintain, a large number of ninjas will be displaced. In this process, the trend of ninja families and secret ninjutsu flowing to other countries is even more unavoidable."

"You also said that the current Sunagakure Ninja Village can be said to be a piece of fat that is coveted by all parties.

"Puch."

"at the moment."

“It has only been six short days since Gaara defected.

Mito Kaden took a deep breath, tapped his fingers on the table, and continued to say in a deep voice:
“Nowadays, almost all the new commissions generated by the daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind and related dignitaries and dignitaries have been taken over by our Hidden Leaf Village.

"The next step is for Sunagakure Ninja Village to further reduce its arms budget. By then, the scale of our missions can be stabilized at the current scale and quantity.

"Who will do it? Are you going to do it?"

I saw him slam the document in his hand on the square table in front of him and shouted:
“Four hundred and twenty-seven!
“On the original basis, it has skyrocketed by 40%!!
"It even includes an S-level mission!"

Danzo Shimura's face changed, and he was about to explode, but Jiraiya interrupted him rudely and continued:
"Obviously he knows everything.

Danzo Shimura suddenly raised his head, a sharp light shot out of his one eye, and said loudly:

Jiraiya sneered in his heart, paused, then with a smile, he leaned into Mito Kadobu's face and teased:
"In my opinion, we, the children of Konoha, will really feel at ease only if our seniors who have experienced the First Ninja War go there.

"I said, how about you, the second-generation guard team, come out again and perform this unparalleled feat for Konoha.

"When the time comes, I will carve a small Yanyan for all three of you so that future generations can sing your praises. What do you think?"

"Stop making such boring jokes."

Mito Kabuto frowned and kept hiding from Jiraiya's approaching face, saying in disgust.

"If Hokage-sama allows it"

On the other side, Shimura Danzo turned a blind eye to the farce, lowered his eyes and said:

"Old minister, I am willing to take root and organize a group of elites to go to the Sunagakure Village to eliminate this huge hidden danger for my Konoha Yinnin."

"Don't even think about taking anyone out!"

Jiraiya immediately put away his playful look, raised his voice suddenly, and said angrily:
"I, a descendant of Konoha, are not your personal bargaining chip, Danzo Shimura!"

Jiraiya put his hands on his knees, sat up straight, leaned his huge body forward, and shouted to Danzo:

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!
"When the time comes, you can just die in Sunagakure Ninja Village.

"If you are lucky enough to win there, I'm afraid Konoha's hidden dangers have just begun!

"If you still think you are a ninja, then go alone and I will never stop you!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

Beside, Tsunade laughed loudly again.

Seeing everyone looking at her with doubtful eyes, Tsunade waved her hands and smiled:
"I just think that Danzo-sama's excellent wind release ninjutsu is really suitable for Sunagakure.

"It seems like it was the promised land. Given Sunagakure's current situation, if Danzo-sama goes alone, he may not be able to win it."

Tsunade smiled and saw that everyone was at a loss and quickly made a "please" gesture. He said:
"Please ignore it and continue."

Maybe Tsunade just really found it interesting.

But to Danzo Shimura's ears, it was clear that the two disciples of Sarutobi Hiruzen were in harmony, constantly putting themselves in this situation.

Neither advancing nor retreating.

Danzo's face was red, and after holding it in for a long time, he could only suppress his anger and said:

"Then, I would like to hear Hokage-sama's opinion."

"Send envoys and negotiate peace."

Jiraiya said simply.

"So, what is the purpose of peace talks?"

Danzo Shimura asked.

"Provide shelter to the authorities of Sunagakure Ninja Village, send a clear signal to the outside world, stabilize the potential actions of other Ninja Villages, and ease the situation."

"So, what's the benefit?"

On the side, Mito Menyan asked curiously.

Upon hearing the question, Jiraiya swept his resolute eyes over everyone's faces one by one, took a deep breath, and said firmly:
"Peace."

"!"

On the side, after hearing this, Tsunade's expression suddenly changed drastically.

This answer was obviously completely beyond her expectation.

In such a tense atmosphere and in a political environment where everyone is calculating carefully.

This man with long white hair is still the same boy as he was decades ago.

Without caring about his own image, he spoke such sincere words like an idiot.

but
After fighting for so many years and wandering for so many years, isn't the thing that everyone has been thinking about in their hearts exactly "peace"?

Such a simple truth, I almost forgot about it.

Tsunade stared at Jiraiya's face, as if she had never known this man before.

"Hahahahaha
"Little Jiraiya, you really are." On the side, Mito Katoyan was so amused that he burst into laughter. He covered his head as if he had just heard a big joke.

On the other side, Danzo Shimura, who had a gloomy face, swept away the gloom on his face, lowered his head and laughed coldly.

"Hmph, you are really too naive.

"If it weren't for the value of that ninjutsu, there is really no need for you to sit in this position. It will not only make you uncomfortable, but also delay important events in the village."

"You bastard! Are you trying to rebel when you say such things?!"

On the other side, facing everyone's ridicule, Jiraiya didn't look embarrassed at all.

After hearing Danzo's rebellious words, he picked up the documents on the table and smashed them into the opponent's face.

"I, the fifth generation Hokage, was chosen by Konoha's advisory board and the Jonin group. At the same time, I was also recognized by the Daimyos of the Land of Fire.

"What position and identity do you have now to come here to discuss the legality of the Hokage position with everyone?!"

Jiraiya asked sharply.

Danzo was stunned by the sudden attack and found it difficult to deal with it for a moment.

Jiraiya's accusation was justified, and Danzo knew he had made a mistake, so he could only lower his head and stop talking.

"Then, let's end today's meeting here."

Seeing the atmosphere become like this again, Mito Kadoyan was already used to it.

Speak calmly at the right time.

Since we can't talk anymore, let's wait until next time.

Anyway, as long as you delay like this, it means that your idea has been implemented.

Thinking of this, Mito Menyan stood up and prepared to leave.

On the other side, Shimura Danzo also gently brushed the scattered documents on his body to the ground, and was also preparing to get up with a livid face.

"Wait a minute."

At this moment, Tsunade, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke again and stopped everyone.

“Time is of the essence and the situation is changing rapidly.

"Today we have to come up with a result and start voting based on the three recommendations that are currently being given."

As she spoke, Tsunade slowly raised her right hand under everyone's gaze.

What would she say?

Considering Tsunade's previous resistance, Jiraiya did not dare to further discuss political decisions with her in detail.

The biggest benefit of placing it here is to weaken the power of the centrists and further extend their right to speak.

However, Tsunade's sudden intervention at this moment made the incident once again confusing.

Jiraiya stared closely at the other party's behavior, and inevitably became highly nervous.

I saw Tsunade tidying up the light yellow hair on her forehead and returning to raising her hands again.

Her red lips parted slightly and she said solemnly:

"I, Advisor Tsunade, agree with what Hokage-sama is doing."

After saying that, Tsunade's calm eyes glanced at the three men in front of her.

Everyone looked stunned.

Jiraiya stared closely at her beautiful face, his heart heaving violently.

At this time, he had to mobilize all the chakra in his body to restrain himself.

In his heart, he had a strong urge to go up and kiss her directly.
-
Back in the office, there was a red toad squatting on the long Hokage desk, with his back to Jiraiya.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the toad turned around.

I saw a pair of goggles hanging around his neck, with symmetrical blue patterns on his eyes.

At this time, he looked tired and exhausted.

"Kousuke Toad?"

After seeing clearly that it was a contact frog, Jiraiya quickly and carefully closed the door tightly.

He walked quickly to the desk, leaned over and asked in a low voice:
"Is there news from Sasuke?
"Is he okay?"

"That's not good."

Kosuke Toad shook his head and replied:

"Kabuto Yakushi may have revealed Sasuke's identity."

Before Kosuke could finish speaking, Jiraiya's face changed in shock. He reached out and immediately grabbed the corner of the table, further lowered his body and asked repeatedly:
"So, is Sasuke Uchiha still alive?
"Is there a fight? That bastard Uchiha Itachi is watching over there. It shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

"It's not as bad as you think."

Kosuke Toad hid behind and said quickly:
"Sasuke is still fine now! He asked me to come here and sent two main pieces of information:
“First, Orochimaru went to the Land of Thunder, which may be directly related to Gaara Sunagata’s departure;
"Second, Kabuto Yakushi may have revealed Sasuke's identity and needs Konoha's help to get rid of him."

this.
Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Sasuke was okay.

But after hearing Orochimaru's movements, Jiraiya quickly felt worried.

The haze of war is getting heavier and heavier, and time is getting tighter.

Immediately afterwards, the second piece of information was revealed, which made Jiraiya even more confused.

"Need Konoha's help to get rid of Kabuto Yakushi"?
But, where is this Yakushi Kabuto now?
Do you mean to ask Konoha to immediately send troops to Orochimaru's base?

Before Jiraiya could ask, Kosuke Toad continued:

"Kabuto Yakushi has currently left Orochimaru base and is rushing to the place where he will contact Akatsuki organization personnel to conduct intelligence work. The specific address is unknown.

"Based on the information Sasuke has learned, we can now basically confirm that the member of the Akatsuki organization who came into contact with Yakushi Kabuto is named the Red Sand Scorpion.

"This Akatsuki member once used the control technique 'Subtle Brain Manipulation Sand' on Kabuto Yakushi. He believed that Kabuto Yakushi was an undercover agent he sent at Orochimaru.

“But in fact, Kabuto Yakushi’s technique has been unlocked by Orochimaru, and now, Kabuto Yakushi is a double undercover agent between the two.

"What Sasuke means is that with the help of this information and the power of the Red Sand Scorpions of the Akatsuki organization, Yakushi Kabuto can be eliminated directly."

After telling all this information in one breath, Kosuke Toad was obviously relieved.

Although, Liaison Frog is a very professional intelligence officer.

But it is indeed a bit difficult to write down so much information at once without making mistakes.

On the other side, Jiraiya's heart seemed very complicated.

On the one hand, under the rapid changes in many situations, he felt new hesitation and worry about Uchiha Sasuke's current situation.

But on the other hand, Sasuke's ability to collect intelligence, respond to situations, and choose strategies this time have far exceeded Jiraiya's original expectations.

The information on such a complex double agent must be very confidential.

But Sasuke not only heard it, but also conveyed the details back to himself so completely.

This is truly amazing.

I don’t know how much hardship this child endured in order to figure out this information.

In addition, Uchiha Sasuke's suggestion of "killing with a borrowed knife" also made Jiraiya very satisfied.

On the one hand, this approach can minimize Sasuke's own suspicion, which is very conducive to the continuation of undercover work;

On the other hand, for Konoha, if it can provoke a dispute between Orochimaru and the Akatsuki organization, it will be a great thing that kills two birds with one stone and benefits the fisherman.

After not seeing each other for more than ten days, that child has grown so quickly.

All of this made Jiraiya feel very proud.

However, I don't know if Orochimaru is good to him, and whether his undercover work has made him suffer all kinds of injustice.
"I understand."

Jiraiya felt pity in his heart, but pretended to be calm and said to Kosuke Toad:

"Just do what Sasuke said. Leave it to us!"

At this time, Kosuke Toad was obviously very tired.

After hearing this, he turned into a cloud of smoke and returned to Miaomu Mountain to recuperate.

"Xuanjian!"

Jiraiya immediately shouted loudly without any pause.

"exist!"

Outside the door, a ninja with a blue hat wrapped around his head and a thousand books in his mouth immediately opened the door and walked in.

"Go and ask Nara Shikaku to come and discuss matters."

Jiraiya ordered:

"be quick."

"Yes!"

The next second, Xuanjian disappeared.

In the Hokage's office, Jiraiya was left alone, facing the direction of the Yin Yin Village outside the window, silently in a daze.
