Chapter 203 Black Zetsu Begins His Operation

The weather was sunny and bright.

Jiraiya and the others, who had killed Danzo several times, walked out of the laboratory feeling refreshed.

"I really didn't expect that killing Danzo would have such an effect."

To be honest, Jiraiya has been under a lot of pressure since becoming the Fifth Hokage.

On one hand, given his personality, he originally didn't want to become Hokage; he was forced into it by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.

Not wanting to become Hokage?

Want to continue traveling outside the village?

Sure, declaring oneself a rogue ninja of Konoha would satisfy all the above requirements.

Having no other choice, Jiraiya, who didn't want to be seen as a rogue ninja, reluctantly became the Fifth Hokage of Konoha.

On the other hand, with the presence of the light screen and the supervision of the second generation, Jiraiya couldn't just coast along in this position.

Especially after he learned so much about the ninja world through the light screen, he could no longer afford to be complacent.

He didn't want to be the last Hokage of Konoha.

Under these circumstances, Jiraiya was under a lot of pressure.

His original intention in this operation to kill Danzo was simply to avenge Yahiko and the Konoha ninjas who had been killed by Danzo.

Unexpectedly, after defeating Danzo several times in various styles, his mood improved significantly, and he even felt much less stressed.

I felt as if my spirit had suddenly been elevated, and my body had regained its strength.

"After the suicide Danzo event, my back and legs no longer hurt, and I have more energy to walk. I can go up five floors in one go without any effort."

The Third Hokage spoke highly of the operation to kill Danzo.

He even went so far as to give Jiraiya and Orochimaru a suggestion that they should organize more events like this when they have free time.

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru and Jiraiya exchanged a glance, both feeling that their teacher seemed to be acting somewhat inhuman.

They were old friends with the Third Hokage for decades, and they never expected their teacher to be so ruthless.

However, since it didn't require much effort, Orochimaru and Jiraiya readily agreed.

Danzo: Please, have some decency.

o (╥﹏╥) o

Among those who participated in the campaign to defeat Danzo, Naruto Uzumaki was the most unique.

Logically speaking, most of the people present had some kind of grudge against Danzo.

Naruto and Danzo actually had a grudge against each other, but because of his personality, he couldn't bear to see Danzo being tortured and killed like that.

Even when Kushina was subjecting Danzo to the excruciating torture of being sliced ​​to death, Naruto pleaded for Danzo's life.

Kushina remained unmoved and continued to slowly torture Danzo, slicing him piece by piece.

By the end, Naruto almost threw up from watching the sword fight.

In fact, the couple had long noticed that Naruto's personality seemed to have some problems.

Even the cheerful and optimistic Minato Namikaze would never hesitate to kill on the battlefield when the time came.

But Naruto is different.

Even when facing an enemy with whom he was fighting to the death, he would subconsciously hold back and avoid killing if possible.

To put it nicely, this is kindness and compassion.

To put it bluntly, that's womanly compassion.

The reason why Minato and his wife were so enthusiastic about participating in this event was that they wanted to take the opportunity to teach Naruto a lesson.

Let him understand what a ninja really is.

This is a profession that involves killing!

Judging from Naruto's expression, Minato and his wife have a long way to go in educating him.

"Minato, you know the current situation in Konoha. After lunch, you and Naruto should head to the Land of Wind."

"No problem, Jiraiya-sensei. Naruto and I will go back and prepare now."

"Yes, the meeting place with Chiyo will be in the River Country, which is located between the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind. I will be waiting for your arrival in the capital of the River Country."

"Perverted sage, what if Granny Chiyo doesn't come?"

Upon hearing Naruto's question, both Jiraiya and Minato smiled.

"I don't believe Chiyo won't come if there's news about Sasori."

As Jiraiya had predicted, things turned out exactly as he had expected.

When Minato Namikaze and Naruto Uzumaki arrived at Sunagakure and revealed some information about Sasori, Chiyo agreed to go to the capital of the Land of Rivers to discuss the matter.

"Kankuro, Temari, Gaara is your younger brother. Please take good care of him while I'm away."

"Ebizo, I'll be troubling you these next few days."

After packing up briefly, Chiyo gave instructions to Kankuro, Temari, and her younger brother Ebizo before leaving Sunagakure with Minato and Naruto.

Before leaving, Naruto deliberately shed Gaara's hair and some dander from his body.

He also warned Gaara to be careful of Deidara's bombs.

Although Gaara didn't know why Naruto said that, he could still feel Naruto's concern for him.

"That's all for now, Gaara. Come visit Konoha sometime!"

"Yeah, I'll come visit you in Konoha when I have time."

Beside a sand dune not far from the entrance to Sunagakure Village.

Black Zetsu emerged from the shadows, grinning from ear to ear as he watched Chiyo leave with Minato and Naruto.

"It's like a pillow appearing just when you're about to fall asleep."

"I was just wondering how to get rid of old woman Chiyo, but she ran off with someone from Konoha."

"Even God is on my side; it's my destiny to succeed."

Black Zetsu wanted to get rid of Gaara silently, and Granny Chiyo was a link it had to avoid.

Now that Granny Chiyo has left, it's time for it to start taking action.

Actually, Black Zetsu's plan was very simple.

The ninja of Sunagakure are currently at their lowest quality in history.

To ensure the success rate of the mission, Kankuro and Temari also have to go on missions.

However, their tasks are usually short-distance missions that don't involve going abroad, and can be completed in about three days at most.

Knowing this, Black Zetsu's plan becomes clear.

It wanted to take advantage of the time difference when the two siblings were on a mission.

They threatened to kidnap the two siblings to lure Gaara out of the village to rescue them.

If it were Gaara before the Chunin Exams, Black Zetsu definitely wouldn't have done this.

Because Gaara during that period was truly ruthless and heartless.

However, during this period, Gaara, after being educated by Naruto, had recovered the emotions that a normal person should have.

Therefore, Black Zetsu believed that if Kankuro and Temari's lives were used to threaten Gaara, he would definitely come.

"Heh, Nagato, you forced me to do this."

"Get ready to receive this great gift: the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed Beast."

"Gaara, I'm sorry, I was hoping to have dinner with you, but a merchant suddenly came to our door and asked Kankuro and me to escort him to the capital of the Land of Wind. I'm afraid we won't be able to have dinner together."

"It's okay, go early and come back early."

"Don't worry, Temari and I will get back as quickly as possible."

Granny Chiyo left in the morning, and Kankuro and Temari received their mission in the afternoon to protect a merchant on his way to the capital of the Land of Wind.

No one noticed anything was wrong.

After all, it's perfectly normal for ninjas to go on missions.

It wasn't until that evening, when Iara returned home and saw the note on his desk, that he realized something was wrong.
