Konoha: From being adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 209

"Tsunade, it's the first time I've seen you have such a high opinion of a person."

Jiraiya's tone was emotional, and he joked, "Those who didn't know thought you were not talking about the apprentice, but the teacher."

"Hmph, how can the old man compare to him?"

Tsunade said without hesitation, "If you say it's my grandfather, it's almost the same."

Hearing this, he was even more surprised.

He knew the position of Senju Bashirama in Tsunade's mind.

It can be called unmatched.

In addition to strength, there are also emotional factors.

But she didn't expect Natsume to be compared with her.

Not easy.

Zilai also smiled heartily and said, "It seems that I will stay for a few more days to get to know him better."

"He won't disappoint you."

The corners of Tsunade's mouth twitched slightly, and said, "Although I'm not sure if the son of prophecy you mentioned is him, but he is indeed qualified to be the son of prophecy."

"Ah."

Jilai also nodded, among other things, he recognized Natsume's strength very much.

He has rich experience and has seen many tailed beasts.

Each one has destructive power and deterrent power that ordinary people can't match.

There are only a handful of people who can defeat them in the entire ninja world.

"Tsunade, I found that your temper has improved a lot."

Zilai also looked at her and said with a smile.

"is it?"

Tsunade raised his eyebrows and said, "No one bothers me, so naturally I won't lose my temper."

"Well, it seems that I am the one who bothers you."

Jiraiya's smile turned into a wry smile.

"You? I'm not bothered anymore."

Tsunade's mouth unconsciously overflowed with a smile, and said, "You see that Natsume is so good now, but she was actually quite naughty before."

Zilai was also slightly taken aback.

Tsunade's expression seemed too happy.

It reminded him of when Rope Tree was around.

Do you regard Natsume as a younger brother?

Zilai also suddenly felt in his heart.

No wonder the evaluation is so high, so high that it is distorted.

According to Tsunade, Natsume is not only powerful, but also exceptionally good at handling Konoha's government affairs.

It can be called all-round invincibility, it is simply an enhanced version of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Namikaze Minato.

"Tsunade, it seems that your retirement life is quite good."

Zilai also drank a glass of water and said, "I'm still a little envious, but unfortunately I can't retire yet."

Tsunade glanced at him and knew he was talking about Mt. Myogi.

Her perception of the Great Toad Immortal is actually quite average.

Because it intervenes in too many things, it is hard to say that it is a psychic beast, and it is more like a certain force.

At the same time, its contractors are undoubtedly the busiest.

Or rather, driven.

Tsunade himself, as the contractor of the Wetbone Forest, lived a very chic life.

The same is true for Orochimaru, except for using the snake in the Ryuchi Cave in battle, there are almost no restrictions on weekdays.

Only Zilai is busy all day.

"Do you want to stay for dinner?"

Tsunade put away his thoughts and said with a smile, "Natsume's cooking skills are very good, you can try it."

She knew the status of Mount Miaogi in Jiraiya's mind.

Therefore, she understood that whatever she said was useless.

If it was really useful, Sarutobi Hiruzen wouldn't let him get away with it.

As a ninja, he ran out every day regardless of Hokage's orders.

Fortunately, he is Hokage's apprentice, otherwise, he would have been regarded as a traitor.

"Need not."

I don't know why there is some resistance.

Maybe he noticed that Tsunade cared too much about Natsume.

It made him feel inexplicably lost.

But he is not qualified to say anything.

Because he was busy with the mission of Mount Miaomu, he owed Muye Village a little.

After all, he was not there in many crisis moments.

Like the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

If he was just a ninja from Konoha Village, he would naturally not be absent, and he would also have a chance to save his student Namikaze Minato.

"I'll come back another day and buy you a drink then."

Jiraiya stood up and said, "I'll be in Konoha all this time."

Tsunade nodded.

"Then, I'll leave first."

Jiraiya waved his hand, opened the gate, and stepped onto the street.

He let out a breath, and after thinking for a moment, he planned to determine whether Natsume was the legendary son of prophecy.

So Ji Lai also took a leap, and after a few ups and downs, he came to the clan land of the Sarutobi clan.

"Hey, old man, what about fishing? Can you catch it?"

"Why? When you came back, you made fun of me as a teacher?"

Holding a pipe in one hand and a fishing rod in the other, Hiruzaru Sarutobi asked.

"What's the matter?"

Zilai also sat next to him, glanced at the bucket, and couldn't help laughing, "Why isn't there any?"

"I just started!"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi glared at him, and said, "Keep your voice down, don't scare my fish."

"Go, go, go."

Jilai also lowered his voice and stopped talking.

Half an hour later, Hiruzaru Sarutobi still found nothing.

He threw the fishing rod and said, "It's all your fault, I didn't catch a single fish."

"...?"

Zilai also widened his eyes and said, "Old man, you are going too far, I didn't say a word."

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen used the method of changing the topic very skillfully.

"About Natsume."

Ji Lai also became serious, and asked, "Old man, what do you think of him?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi was stunned for a moment, apparently not expecting this problem.

He took a puff of cigarette and said with emotion: "It's a hopeless genius."

"It is true in terms of strength."

Jilai also nodded, and said, "What about character? For example, old man, you are best at the will of fire."

"Not bad."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi thought of something, got up and entered the room, and quickly got a bunch of materials.

"This is?"

Ji Lai also accepted it in doubt.

"Natsume's understanding of the will of fire during school, I was surprised by some parts."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi smiled and said, "No matter what his character is, so far, everything he has done is beneficial to Konoha."

"I'll take it back and have a look."

Jiraiya also put away the materials, and said, "I heard from Tsunade that he is very good at government affairs."

"Indeed."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi showed surprise on his face, and said, "Let's talk to you from the Konoha Police Department."

After listening to it, I have only one feeling.

This is definitely the legendary Son of Prophecy.

From Jiraiya's point of view, strength alone cannot become the son of prophecy, wisdom must be added.

After all, he is the one who wants to bring peace to the ninja world.

Peace alone cannot last for long.

You can find out by referring to Senshouzhujian.

"To what extent is Natsume's strength?"

Zilai also thought about it and asked.

Speaking of which, he still has a little bit of worry.

If Natsume was the one who destroyed Mt. Myogi, the joke would be big.

But yes and no, it's pretty easy to identify.

Just look at the strength.

"Very strong."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi pondered and said, "In terms of expressiveness, the Immortal mode Jia Mutun is only a little worse than the first-generation master."

His judgment is derived from various legends among the Thousand Hands Column.

For example, Uchiha Madara and Kurama never beat him.

In particular, he learned more details from the whirlpool account.

It can be said that Senshouzhujian has the absolute upper hand.

And the most powerful tailed beast, Jiu Lama, in his hands, is like a little chicken, without any threat.

In comparison, Natsume's attack on the crane is not so outrageous.

He even used the forbidden techniques of the Wooden Dungeon, the True Thousand Hands and the Top Hua Buddha.

If it were Senju Bashirama, absolutely no need.

"Can you compete with the Sage of the Six Paths?"

Jilai also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but just in case, he asked again.

Because according to Fukasaku Sage, only Sage of the Six Paths could destroy Mount Miaomu.

"That's naturally not comparable."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi was stunned, recalling the prophecy a long time ago, and asked, "Are you still looking for that ninja who might destroy Mt. Myogi?"

"Ah."

Jilai also sighed, and said, "But there is no trace."

"So you suspect Natsume?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi frowned, and asked, "He is Hokage now, as a ninja of Konoha Village, how can you guess like this?"

"Feel sorry."

Jiraiya smiled awkwardly, and said, "I'm just asking casually. Natsume doesn't have special eyes, so it can't be him."

"I still have to remind you, you are a ninja from Muye Village."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked at him, shook his head, but didn't say anything more.

"I see."

Zilai also said seriously.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner, the two of us haven't been together for a long time."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi stood up and smiled again.

"Old man, I have to go to the Uchiha clan."

Zilai also scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "I'll have dinner with you when I go back."

"Is it for the so-called prophecy again?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi waved his hand a little dissatisfied, and said, "Go, go."

Zilai also turned to leave.

It didn't take long to arrive at the residence of the Uchiha clan.

"Sorry, Master Ziraiya, for keeping you waiting."

Uchiha Mikoto took a deep breath, and after making sure that no one would see anything abnormal, she opened the door and entered.

She had fought fiercely with Natsume before, and she was resting, but when she heard the news of Jiraiya's visit, she was so frightened that she immediately woke up.

After a quick change of clothes, he hurried over.

It's too late to take a shower.

"It's ok."

Zilai also took a look at her.

His face was rosy and full of energy, and he had already stepped out of the shadow of extermination.

In this case, it would be convenient for him to ask.

"Meiqin, I'm here this time because I want to ask you something."

Ji Lai also thought about his words, and asked, "How did you escape that night, is it related to that mysterious Wooden Dungeon?"

Uchiha Mikoto suddenly remembered the various conditions that Natsume had agreed to before.

Some of them are quite excessive.

She sat on a chair and subconsciously folded her slender legs.

It always feels like something is about to leak out.

Uchiha Mikoto resisted the uneasiness in her heart, took a deep breath, and said: "This issue has been clearly stated in the information handed over to Konoha."

"Feel sorry."

Zilai also thought that she was a little dissatisfied because she mentioned sad things, so she explained, "There is indeed an explanation, but I want to know more details."

"what's the situation?"

Uchiha Mikoto forced a smile and asked.

Immediately felt a little guilty.

But for the sake of Mount Miaomu, I have to ask again.

"After he rescued you, did you realize his purpose?"

Jiraiya suppressed the emotions in his heart and asked.

"I feel like it's for the kaleidoscope Sharingan."

Uchiha Mikoto thought for a while and said, "Thinking about it now, he often uses some means to help us open our eyes."

"But hasn't he already obtained Shisui's Kaleidoscope Sharingan?"

Zilai also asked suspiciously.

"Perhaps on top of this, there are even more powerful eyes."

Uchiha Mikoto guessed.

Jiraiya's first reaction was disbelief.

Because he remembered that Uchiha Madara seemed to be Kaleidoscope Sharingan.

But if you think about it, it seems reasonable.

How could it be possible to destroy Mt. Miaomu with just the kaleidoscope Sharingan?

If there is a higher level of eyes, the power must be devastating.

"Of course, this is just my side of the story."

Uchiha Mikoto shook her head and said, "A few years later, he found that none of us have the talent to open the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, so he gave up on us."

"give up?"

Ji Lai also narrowed his eyes and said, "Although it's a bit presumptuous, I still want to ask, this person should not be a kind person, why didn't he kill you? Is it related to his identity?"

What he thought at this time was that this person might be from the Uchiha clan, otherwise, he wouldn't know Kaleidoscope Sharingan so well.

Uchiha Mikoto showed hesitation on his face.

Seeing this, Ji Lai also felt his heart move immediately, and quickly said: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about today's matter."

"He blew his name, but I don't think it's possible."

Uchiha Mikoto hesitated to speak, "He said he was called Uchiha Madara, and he was our ancestor, so he didn't kill us."

"Uchiha Madara?!"

Ji Lai also stood up suddenly, his face full of shock.

Although Uchiha Madara is not as good as Senju Zhujian, he is also a legend in the ninja world.

The important thing is that even if he didn't die, he should be nearly a hundred years old by now.

At such an age, he should have been lying in bed waiting to die.

How can he be so active like that mysterious strong man who can jump and jump?
And he didn't think anyone could survive in the hands of Senshou Zhujian.

Jiraiya frowned and sat down again.

But if Uchiha Madara is alive, it does meet the conditions.

Evil and powerful.

Has special eyes, comes from Konoha, but hates Konoha.

It seems reasonable to attack Mount Miaomu.

No matter what, the top priority is to find him.

Jilai also came back to his senses, and asked, "Meiqin, have you met other strangers besides him in these few years?"

"Stranger?"

Uchiha Mikoto had a thoughtful expression on her face.

There was no urging from Jilai, just waiting quietly.

Although he was quite anxious.

After all, you can't find someone else just by knowing a name.

Especially Uchiha Madara.

After a while, Uchiha Mikoto seemed to think of something, and said, "There is really a person, but I only met him once, so I don't have a deep impression."

"How do you look?"

Jiraiya's eyes lit up, and he asked hastily.

"It's a ninja wearing a black windbreaker embroidered with red clouds and a hat with wind chimes on its head."

Uchiha Mikoto paused, and then said, "He is a traitor, but I have no impression of that forehead, it is a downward arrow."

"Taki Hidden Village!"

Zilai was also suddenly a little excited.

Uchiha Mikoto hardly goes out because of her status as the patriarch's wife, so she doesn't know much about Xiaonin Village.

But he was different, as soon as he heard it, he knew it was Longyin Village.

And this is undoubtedly a very definite clue.

　Four thousand words.
