"The man who is most fond of playing tricks stumbles where he is most proud."

"However, the most admirable thing is your strategy, brother-in-law. The country of rain has been fighting with the country of fire, the country of wind, and the country of earth. There are corpses all over the ground. There will be no more Sarutobi Shinnosuke. No problem, no problem."

The more Naoki talked, the redder his face became.

Not because of alcohol like Tsunade, but because of excessive excitement.

"No, it just so happened that because of doing something in the Land of Rain, there was a flaw that I didn't even think of myself."

Xuan Che picked up the wine glass, took a sip, then glanced towards the door from the corner of his eyes, and said with a half-smile:

"And that flaw has already come."

"Jiraiya, come and eat something?"

When Xuan Che said this sentence.

Nakoki and Tsunade, who were already a little drunk, were more than half sober in an instant.

Looking towards the main entrance.

Jiraiya walked into the courtyard with complex expressions of shock, fear, anger, sadness, etc. on his face.

"Xuanche, as expected...you did it."

Zilai managed to squeeze out a word from between his teeth.

Xuan Toru's report to Sarutobi Hiruzen was that he set out with Sarutobi Shinnosuke in the country of Sichuan, and then met himself in the country of rain.

Afterwards, the three sneaked into the hidden sand village together to assassinate the second generation of Kazekage.

In the end, Sarutobi Shinnosuke died at the hands of the Second Kazekage.

But the truth that Jiraiya personally experienced is.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke did not participate in the assassination of Kazekage from the beginning to the end.

I even saw him from the very beginning.

Originally, I had guessed in my heart.

And just now, I heard Naoshu's words again.

The truth has been firmly presented in front of me.

"Ah~ To be honest, it is true that people are not as good as heaven, and who would have guessed that it is a coincidence that they will meet you in the Land of Rain?"

Xuan Che chuckled lightly, took out another pair of bowls and chopsticks from the side and said:

"Let's talk while eating."

Jiraiya is now in the mood of eating and drinking again.

Not to mention him, even Tsunade and Nawaki, the moment each other appeared.

Also tacitly put down the wine glass in his hand.

Facing the looming hostility emanating from the Qianshou siblings, Zilai also frowned, and even asked a little timidly in his heart:

"Tsunate, Nakoki, you... did you know it from the beginning?"

"I guessed it when he proposed to kill Kazekage with Sarutobi Shinnosuke."

Tsunade picked up the wine glass again with a grim expression, poured it into his mouth in one gulp, and said indifferently:

"But it's true, it's a coincidence that he will meet you."

"Senior Jiraiya, are you going to inform Hiruzaru Sarutobi?"

But Shengshu was even more impolite, and directly wrote the word "hostility" on his face.

Ever since the Senju Clan suffered a disaster last year, he never called Sarutobi Hiruzen "Hokage", at least not behind the scenes.

In his opinion, Hiruzaru Sarutobi did not deserve to have the same name as his two grandfathers.

"Rope tree, I..."

Ji Lai also didn't know how to answer for a while.

"You have been here all the way, you should have seen the current situation of the Qianshou clan, right?"

The hatred on Naoki's expression became more and more intense, and he said again:

"The men are almost dead. Compared with us, Hiruza Sarutobi is just a son who died, it can't be compared at all!"

I am also speechless.

Last year, the Thousand Hands Clan strayed into the enemy's trap due to a mistake in the intelligence provided by the Ministry of Intelligence, leading to their complete annihilation.

Including the parents of Tsunade and Nakoki.

The top person in charge of the intelligence department is the Shimura family.

Even at that time, Jiraiya was still teaching the future Akatsuki trio in the Land of Rain.

It can also be vaguely noticed that this matter is not that simple.

And Shengshu was more straightforward, and directly made the words clear——

This matter is the instruction of the high-level decision-making group!

Senju and Uchiha are the two most unconvinced two big clans who are the most unconvinced by Sarutobi Hiruzen as Hokage.

And Senju has already given birth to two Hokages.

The opposition was even more violent.

And after what happened last year.

Seeing the ending of Senju, Uchiha is also honest.

After all, Uchiha's situation is not much better than Senju's now, and it was even worse than Senju before Senju's disaster.

At least Senju still has a Tsunade.

However, Uchiha has yet to give birth to a shadow-level powerhouse.

A chain of hatred.

Looking at Naoki's eyes full of hatred, Jiraiya suddenly thought of what the big toad sage said in the past.

The Son of Prophecy will break the chain of hatred in this world and bring true peace of mutual understanding between people.

And myself, will become the leader of the Son of Prophecy.

Thinking of this, Jiraiya's expression became firmer.

As if he had made up his mind, he said "I'll go first" before turning around and leaving. .

Chapter 38

"Brother-in-law, Jiraiya-senpai is the only one who knows the truth, do you think he will..."

Looking at the back of Jiraiya leaving alone, Nakoki asked Xuanche with a worried face.

"will not."

Xuanche fished out a piece of beef from the stone pot, put one piece in his own bowl, and brought the other piece to Tsunade's mouth.

Tsunade was furious for a few seconds, and finally his red lips parted slightly, and he bit the meat into his mouth.

"Jiraiya is a very emotional person. This is why I don't dislike him, and it is also his biggest weakness."

Xuan Che said confidently.

Not to mention anything else, just in the future Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen will start a life-and-death battle, and he chooses to be neutral.

It is enough to explain many problems.

……

……

"What's the matter? Jiraiya, this despondent look doesn't suit you, an idiot~"

When Jiraiya left the land of the Thousand Hands, he happened to meet Orochimaru who led a small group of guards back to Konoha.

Seeing Jiraiya's deep complexion and frowning expression, Orochimaru couldn't help but tease.

"Orochimaru……"

Jilai also raised his eyes and stared at his best friend who had an increasingly gloomy demeanor in front of him, and asked after a few seconds:

"The incident between Xuanche and Shinnosuke...you know?"

"that matter?"

Orochimaru turned the snake eyes and thought for half a second, then suddenly said:

"Hey~ You mean that Xuanche gave Shinnosuke to—"

"Hey!!"

Before Orochimaru finished speaking, Jiraiya yelled back.

The other Konoha ninja Jiling around were startled.

In the next second, Jiraiya slammed Dashemaru's shoulders, pulled him to the other side, and lowered his voice as much as possible:

"You guy, are you crazy?! Talking about this kind of topic in public!"

Orochimaru shrugged and smiled, "What's the big deal? I'm not on Sarutobi's side, nor on Xuanche's side, I'm just neutral."

Neutral attitude?

Hearing these four words from Orochimaru's mouth, Jiraiya's expression changed again.

They are all Konoha ninjas, but have they split into several factions unknowingly?

"For me, they are all fragile creatures that will die at any time. I have no interest in the fight between these people."

Orochimaru maintained a faint smile from beginning to end, appearing indifferent to everything.

In his eyes, the eternal life of his best friend and infinite ninjutsu that he pursued was nothing more than that.

But for a person who can obtain eternal life.

A battle between outsiders, or people who will die sooner or later.

Meaningless.

"What about you? Jiraiya, which side are you on?"

But having said that, Orochimaru is concerned about which side can win if Xuantou and Sarutobi-sensei confront each other.

Still quite interested.

"What do you mean?"

Zilai also became more and more uneasy.

"You and I both know that Shinnosuke was killed by Xuanche. Although Mr. Sarutobi has no evidence, Xuanche must be blacklisted by the senior elders. Sooner or later, they will confront each other."

Orochimaru smiled and said, "Behind Xuanche are Tsunade, Nawaki, and Shirato, but Sarutobi-sensei is behind the elders and even the entire Konoha."

"It seems that Sarutobi-sensei has an overwhelming advantage, but due to the aging relationship between him and Danzo, the strength has inevitably begun to decline.

And Uchiha, Hyuga, Inokacho and other big families may not be so loyal to Sarutobi-sensei in my opinion. "

When it came to this, Orochimaru couldn't help laughing and said:

"Under such a situation, the choice of your shadow level is an important weight to determine the balance of this scale."

Jiraiya's eyebrows twitched violently twice.

Not waiting for him to answer the other party.

A masked Anbu suddenly appeared beside the two with a teleportation technique and said:

"Oshemaru-sama, Jiraiya-sama, Hokage-sama summoned you two."

"Ok?"

Jiraiya also noticed the conspicuous yellow hair behind the mask of Anbu in front of him.
