My older sister is Kushina

Back home, Uzumaki Hanamichi ate the breakfast that Tamako had prepared for him, and then used a shadow clone to take Tamako to the morning market.

The main body of Whirlpool Flower City quickly went to rest.

I guarded Orochimaru for about half an hour last night, but it wasn't too tiring. As a ninja, my mental and physical strength is much stronger than that of an ordinary person.

By the afternoon, Whirlpool Flower Path had rested enough.

Soon after, he went to the Dark Division building to learn about the Dark Division team and had a brief interaction with a few of the team members.

After dealing with the first Anbu squad, Uzumaki Hanamichi headed to the Hokage Building.

Before long, he arrived at the Hokage's office.

Uzumaki Hanamichi knocked on the door first, and after receiving a response, he pushed the door open and entered the Hokage's office.

However, as soon as he entered the Hokage's office, a look of surprise appeared on his face. There was a guest in the Hokage's office at that moment, and this guest's identity was rather special.

This special guest was none other than Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha.

Uzumaki Hanamichi is quite familiar with Jiraiya. Although they didn't have much contact before, Jiraiya has been a frequent visitor to his late-night diner lately.

In addition, Jiraiya also has a special identity—Minato Namikaze's teacher.

Jiraiya visited the Hokage's office half an hour ago, and today he unexpectedly learned some very surprising news, which was about Orochimaru.

Jiraiya was extremely surprised to learn about Orochimaru.

He hadn't expected Orochimaru to do such unforgivable things in secret. He only knew some general information and came to the Hokage's office to learn more about Orochimaru.

Jiraiya and Orochimaru were close friends with a deep bond. After graduating from the Ninja Academy, he, Orochimaru, and Tsunade became disciples of Hiruzen Sarutobi. The trio then went through many trials together, completing missions, training, and fighting side by side.

Although the two have very different personalities, they have developed a deep friendship through their long-term interactions. Now that Orochimaru is in trouble, he, as his close friend, will naturally not stand idly by.

When questioned by his teacher Jiraiya, Minato Namikaze did not hide anything and described the relevant situation to his teacher.

Although Jiraiya considered Orochimaru a close friend, he did not blindly side with Orochimaru. After learning the details from his disciple Minato Namikaze, he was furious. He had not expected Orochimaru to do such a thing.

Inside the Hokage's office, Minato Namikaze, upon seeing that the visitor was Hanamichi Uzumaki, immediately introduced him to his teacher, Jiraiya. Although Hanamichi Uzumaki had had many interactions with Jiraiya before, this was the first time he had come into such close face-to-face contact with Jiraiya as the captain of the first squad of the Anbu.

Minato Namikaze didn't tell Jiraiya about Uzumaki Hanamichi's identity as the captain of the first squad of the Anbu. It wasn't that he didn't trust Jiraiya, but he had promised Uzumaki Hanamichi that he would try not to reveal his identity unless necessary.

Jiraiya's gaze had already fallen on Uzumaki Hanamichi. Although this was the first time the two had been so close, he had a deep impression of Langya, the captain of the first squad of the Anbu. It was because of the ninjutsu exchange meeting between the two delegations from Kumogakure and Kirigakure and Konoha a few months ago. Langya's performance at the ninjutsu exchange meeting was very amazing. He first defeated Mei Terumi, a seeded player from Kirigakure, and finally defeated Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, representing Konoha to win the final victory.

Actually, he was also very curious about the true identity behind Wolf Fang.

Shortly after the ninjutsu exchange, Jiraiya asked his disciple Minato Namikaze about Wolf Fang's identity, but Minato did not tell him, citing his promise to keep Wolf Fang's identity a secret.

Uzumaki Hanamichi immediately greeted Jiraiya, "Lord Jiraiya!"

Jiraiya nodded: "Captain Wolf Fang, your strength was quite impressive during the exchange of ninjutsu between the two delegations from Kumogakure and Kirigakure and Konoha, especially the final battle against Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of Kumogakure. Based on the techniques you used, if I'm not mistaken, you should be a member of the Uzumaki clan."

Uzumaki Hanamichi did not deny it. In the battle against Killer Bee at the Ninja Exchange Conference, he used the Uzumaki clan's unique sealing technique. Those who knew him had obviously exposed his Uzumaki clan identity, so he had no need to hide it from Jiraiya.

He nodded to Jiraiya: "Yes, Lord Jiraiya."

Jiraiya sighed softly, "The Uzumaki clan should be proud to have someone of your strength. It's just a pity that Uzumaki was attacked back then, otherwise... I'm sorry!"

Jiraiya suddenly stopped speaking halfway through his sentence and apologized to Uzumaki Hanamichi.

Uzumaki Hanamichi shook his head: "Those things are in the past."

Jiraiya: "Hmm."

Minato Namikaze interjected, "Captain Wolf Fang, you've come at the right time. My teacher wants to see Orochimaru. Orochimaru's guards are your Anbu First Squad, so I'd like to ask you to take Jiraiya to see Orochimaru."

As expected, Jiraiya's bond with Orochimaru is exceptionally deep. The two, along with Tsunade, studied under Hiruzen Sarutobi and grew up together. They were also known as the Legendary Sannin of Konoha during the Second Shinobi World War, making them close friends. Now that Orochimaru is in trouble, Jiraiya's appearance is something he anticipated.

"no problem."

Uzumaki Hanamichi quickly gave Minato Namikaze a positive answer.

Jiraiya said politely, "Then I'll have to trouble Captain Wolf Fang."

Soon after, Uzumaki Hanamichi and Jiraiya left the Hokage's office together and headed towards the Anbu.

The two quickly arrived at the second floor of the underground secret chamber.

During the day, Kakashi Hatake and Shihei Aburame were responsible for guarding Orochimaru.

The two were somewhat surprised to see their captain arrive with Jiraiya.

Kakashi Hatake and Shihei Aburame immediately greeted Hanamichi Uzumaki and Jiraiya. As one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha, Jiraiya was respected by many Konoha ninja, including Kakashi Hatake and Shihei Aburame. Moreover, Kakashi Hatake and Jiraiya had a special relationship because Kakashi's teacher was Minato Namikaze, and Minato Namikaze's teacher was Jiraiya.

After a brief greeting, Uzumaki Hanamichi led Jiraiya toward Orochimaru's cell.

Orochimaru was somewhat surprised to see Uzumaki Hanamichi and Jiraiya arrive; to be precise, his surprise stemmed from Jiraiya.

After leading Jiraiya into Orochimaru's cell, Uzumaki Hanamichi said, "Lord Jiraiya, I won't disturb your visit any longer. Call me anytime if you need anything; I'll be over there."

Jiraiya nodded: "Thank you, Captain Wolf Fang."
