During this battle, Ye Xi almost thought that the main body had a self-awareness and came to attack Konoha.

"Excuse me for resting." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded to Yexi first, and then looked at Anbu who was standing aside.

"Let's explain the situation in detail."

"Yes."

Anbu took a deep breath and said in a heavy tone:

"I am a cow, looking for the executor of the Sannin mission.

"I followed Jiraiya-sama's trail and finally arrived at Daimyo Castle, where I lost my target.

"After a period of investigation, I learned that Master Jiraiya once fought against people there."

"Fight against each other?" Zhuanzhu Xiaochun questioned, "In the Country of Grass, is there anyone who can fight against Jiraiya?"

"Listen to him." Hiruzaru Sarutobi frowned, and then said to Anbu: "Go ahead, just get to the point."

Anbu nodded and talked about the conclusion.

"The result of the fight is unknown, there are no witnesses, and right after that, Jiraiya-sama disappeared completely.

"After questioning nearby residents, at that time, there was a tenant with red hair and red eyes in a hotel near the battle site.

"And the time is very close to the time when the Daimyo of the Country of Grass was attacked."

"Red hair and red eyes?" Mitomonyan pushed his glasses that were crooked, "Is it the heavy bottle? The heavy bottle attacked Jiraiya?"

"According to the survey results, it is likely to be the case, but it is not the worst.

"At the local casino, I learned that at the same time, Tsunade-sama also appeared there, and also disappeared after that."

Danzo's one-eyed eyes were very gloomy, "The worst result is that Jiraiya and Tsunade have been killed by Shigetaru, and Sannin no longer exists."

This is a huge blow to Konoha.

Once these two people died, the generation that Konoha was the pillar of at this time would completely lose its brilliance.

The only one who can entrust him is Kakashi who is under 20 years old.

Of course, there is also Yexi, but she is not considered a suitable candidate to become the fifth generation of Hokage.

Powerful, mysterious, and mentally abnormal, the latter two are pretty bad traits for a village shadow.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi sighed deeply, and messed up the documents on the table with his hands for unknown purpose.

"Yexi"

"Need me to track down Chong Zun and kill him?" Ye Xi asked.

She thought something happened, and that's it?

She thought that Konoha had already got the news.

"No, that's not the case." Hiruzaru Sarutobi pinched the bridge of his nose, "I'm not very happy to bring this up."

He sighed again, raised his head and looked at Ye Xi beggingly.

"You, your father used to work under Zhong Zun, did you leave any contact information with Zhong Zun?"

"Hiichi, what do you want to do!?" Danzo said in surprise.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi clasped his hands on his forehead, "Jiraiya and Tsunade are very important to Konoha, Shigetaru will not kill them directly, we can talk to him."

"Don't be naive, he once disguised himself as a white snake to work under my command, and his actions during missions have proved countless times that he is a merciless guy." Danzo said angrily.

Even a person like him who has no bottom line for profit can know how stupid it is to contact Shigeta at this time.

Lu Jiu hesitated for a moment, but still chose to speak:

"Hokage-sama, please forgive me, even if Shigetaru really accepts the deal, the price we need to pay will not be lower than losing Tsunade-sama and Jiraiya-sama."

He didn't remind Sarutobi Hiruzen that the fact of seeking a deal from Shigetaru is easy to be used, making Konoha pay the price.

Because he was sure that Hiruzaru Sarutobi had thought of this, and it was just a fluke in his heart.

"I know." Hiruzaru Sarutobi had a hopeful expression on his face, "Didn't he want Konoha's sealed book?"

The atmosphere in the office became a little cold the moment his voice fell.

Danzo thought he would laugh, but he didn't, and felt sad instead.

"Ri Zhan, are you ready to defect?"

Mito Menyan raised his hand to stop Zhuanshu Xiaochun who was about to ask questions, and said:

"Taking the sealed book as a trade item is not something you can decide on your own, even if you are Hokage."

"That's right." Hiruzaru Sarutobi forced a wry smile on his face, "Forgive the nonsense of an old man, they are my disciples after all, I watched them change from frizzy brats to three Tolerate."

For more than 40 years and less than 20 years, his affection for Sannin is far deeper than that of his son.

From three children who don't know the cruelty of the world, to a qualified ninja, and the Konoha hero who makes him proud.

The troubles, helplessness, gratification, and pride in it, even now I can recall the feelings at that time.

Lu Jiu sighed, "Master Hokage, it is not human beings who can always maintain rational judgment, but sophisticated instruments."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded, "I invite you to come here this time, I hope everyone can brainstorm and come up with a solution."

"In terms of negotiations, maybe we don't have to stick to one village, but rely on the Heavy Bottle Hunting Alliance?" Zhuanju Xiaochun thought.

After feeling the pain of her old friend, she also chose to soften her heart.

"No." Danzo resolutely vetoed, "It is either naive or stupid to let other villages know that Konoha has lost Jiraiya and Tsunade at this time."

As the hawk faction of the main battle, he can better understand the thoughts of the two people who are biased towards the main battle, Raikage and Tukage.

The threat of heavy bottles will never prevent them from obtaining the huge benefits at present.

"But we have Yexi," Mito Menyan frowned.

"But there is only one Yexi." On this matter, Nara Shikahisa and Danzo have the same opinion.

Konoha couldn't afford to gamble, but Konoha's weakness triggered the Fourth Ninja World War.

With Ye Xi alone, he could only defend Muye Village, but he couldn't defend the territory of the Fire Country.

And the looting of the territory means the punishment of the daimyo, the reduction of support funds, and the distrust of the common people.

This will be the harbinger of the big ninja village becoming a small ninja village.

"Then what should we do?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked at Shikahisa Nara.

This made Shikahisa Nara very stressed.

There are many ways, but a good way, unfortunately, he couldn't think of it.

Fortunately, Sarutobi Hiruzen is only looking for a feasible method, not a perfect method.

"That's waiting." Nara Shikahisa said in a deep voice.

"Wait?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi took a deep puff of his pipe.

Lu Jiu nodded his head with certainty, expressing his confidence.

"If Tsunade-sama and Jiraiya-sama are only restrained by Shigetaru, it means that they are useful to Shigetaru.

"We just need to wait quietly for Zhong Zun to contact us, or to attack again to expand its influence.

"The former is because Zhong Zun took the initiative to contact us, so it will not be used by those who want to.

"In the latter case, we need a reliable ally and rely on alliances and heavy negotiations.

"Allies can improve our right to speak in the alliance, and the impact of the heavy bottle attack will make other villages feel more threatened, thereby reducing the possibility of them taking the initiative to trouble us."

After thinking about it, Sarutobi Hiruza nodded approvingly.

He should have thought of this a long time ago, but if he cared about it, he would be confused, and as he was getting older, he became confused for a while.

"But what if Tsunade and Jiraiya are already dead?" Danzo said in a dark voice.

The corner of Lu Jiu's mouth dropped, "Before the safety of the two adults is confirmed, we need to make arrangements on the premise that the two adults are safe and sound, don't you think so?"

Danzo didn't make any more noise, Nara Shikahisa had indeed minimized the impact of exposing Konoha's weakness.

For Tsunade and Jiraiya, it was worth taking this level of risk.

"Then how should we choose the allies in the alliance?" Zhuanzhu Xiaochun asked.

As soon as these words came out, Lu Jiu suddenly showed embarrassment.

"But it doesn't matter." Hiruzaru Sarutobi immediately noticed his hesitation.

"I think it's Yuyin." Nara Shikahisa's voice was not low, but not confident, it was just very flat.

Chapter 310 Payne: My Spirit Walks Together

"Alliance with Yuyin?" Mito Menyan asked in surprise; "Why?"

In the long run, the Land of Rain is a threat that should be suppressed.

In the Five Kages Conference, although the contact between Hokage and the leader of Yuyin was not tit-for-tat, it could not be called friendly.

"The basis for the judgment is the information that Hokage-sama brought back." Shikajiu looked at Hiruzaru Sarutobi.

This is not a trivial matter, and it must be approved by Hokage before making a proposal.

Otherwise, if something happens later, the Nara family can't afford it.

"Just say it." Hiruzaru Sarutobi raised his hand.

After returning from the meeting with the Five Kages, he also asked someone to analyze it.

The result was not far from his original judgment.

If this still goes wrong, then you can only admit that you are unlucky.

"The reason why I chose Yuyin is because it is a small country with strong strength.

"From the information about Yuyin collected by Konoha, we can know that the leader of this country is ambitious and unwilling to be a small country."

Danzo nodded in approval, which is the fundamental reason why Yuyin is a threat.

"After such a country becomes the leader of the alliance, it will definitely not be willing to be a puppet. With the strength of the village, it has a certain right to speak.
