He waved his hand, summoned two Anbu to come forward, and then said to Lao Zi: "No matter what, it is a fact that you came to Konohagakure."
"A visitor from afar is a welcome one. I think you should know that Konoha will not do anything to you."
"As long as you cooperate, I will guarantee in the name of Hokage that you will return to the Land of Earth alive."
Sarutobi Hiruzen made this promise.
Of course, his guarantee only ensures that Lao Zi can return to the Land of Earth alive, but it is hard to say whether he will be missing any limbs.
"I probably don't have a choice."
Lao Zi also understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's plan and immediately showed a helpless expression, but he also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
As long as I can stay alive, that's enough.
As for the price to be paid, that is something the Third Tsuchikage needs to consider. What does it have to do with me?
He had always been at odds with the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki, and he was overjoyed to be able to cause some trouble for Ōnoki.
Moreover, if Ōnoki hadn't asked the Iwagakure to attack him secretly, he would have been in the arms of a beautiful woman right now.
Thinking of this, Lao Zi also smiled bitterly. What evil had he done? It was bad enough that he was beaten up by his own family, but when he woke up he found himself in the enemy's village again.
Lao Zi swore in his heart that if he could return to the Land of Earth alive this time, he would restrain himself and observe etiquette and become a pious wandering monk!
After asking the Anbu to take Lao Zi away and treat him well, Sarutobi Hiruzen then looked at Chiga and the other two.
Bringing back the Four-Tails Jinchuriki this time is a much greater contribution than before. Sarutobi Hiruzen will have to think carefully about what reward to give to Minato's team.
Just as he was thinking, Minato's expression suddenly changed, and then he spoke to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Third Hokage, Gamayu from Myoboku Mountain contacted me. It should be Jiraiya-sensei who passed on the message."
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "Summon him out and tell Jiraiya to come back as soon as possible. The Land of Hot Springs is not safe now."
Minato nodded and summoned Gamayu, but there was actually another toad following Gamayu.
The art of toad hiding!
As the toad opened its mouth, a hand stretched out from its mouth.
Jiraiya is similar to the one in the anime, except that he is much younger. He is tall, with a forehead protector with the word "oil" on it, long white hair draped down to his waist, and a red mark under his closed eyes.
When he was young, Jiraiya looked far from the decadent look of middle-aged people, and even looked a little handsome.
However, Chiga felt a little disgusted by the way Jiraiya appeared.
There is no difference between growing a person out of a toad's mouth and growing a person out of a snake's mouth.
No wonder Jiraiya and Orochimaru have been entangled for so many years. At least they have some consistency in some hobbies.
Just as Jiraiya came out of the toad's mouth, Chiga pulled Minato's sleeve and asked, "Have we completed this B-rank mission?"
Minato didn't say anything, just nodded.
Jiraiya came out and was immediately delighted when he saw that he was in the Hokage's office.
He ignored Minato and shouted to Sarutobi Hiruzen, "Old man, something terrible has happened. The Iwagakure ninja has gone crazy and sealed off the Land of Hot Springs!"
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen replied unhappily, "I sent someone to do it. How come it affects your ability to peek into the women's bath in Yu-no-Kuni?"
Jiraiya froze, originally thinking it was important information, so he hurriedly came back through reverse summoning.
I didn't expect that as soon as we met, Sarutobi Hiruzen would say something to me.
"Uh, old man, what have you done? They arrest anyone they see who is suspicious now."
Jiraiya asked with confusion.
Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Jiraiya and said, "In order to get you back, I tied up their Four-Tails Jinchuriki!"
"What?"
Jiraiya was shocked: "Old man, are you crazy? Do you want to start a war just to get me back?"
Seeing that Jiraiya believed it, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help rubbing his brows, and then said helplessly: "It was Minato and the others who accidentally got the information about the Iwagakure while searching for you, and found out..."
After learning the whole story from Sarutobi Hiruzen, Jiraiya complained to Minato.
"Minato, you are really something. If your disciple doesn't understand you, don't you know me?"
"The old pervert the Iwanin was talking about definitely wasn't me. I go to bathhouses and pubs just to get inspiration. I'm definitely not as playboy as the Four-Tails Jinchuriki."
Minato looked at his teacher silently, without refutation, but also without agreement.
Kakashi's filter for the Sannin was broken again and again. He couldn't help but ask Chiga: "This Jiraiya-sama is too thick-skinned. Is he really Minato-sensei's teacher?"
"Well, you can't be a pervert if you don't have thick skin! You'll get used to it."
Qian He replied.
"Who are you, kid? You sound like you know me well?"
Jiraiya also heard what Chiga said and leaned down to look at Chiga.
Chiga and Jiraiya stared at each other, thinking about what to say and collecting Jiraiya's negative emotions.
Compared to Tsunade, Chiga was not worried at all about what would happen if she offended Jiraiya.
After all, he still remembered what Kushina had said when she wanted to take him in as her apprentice.
Chapter 93 Evil Eyes
Kushina once told Chiga that in the entire Konoha Village, the person Chiga least needs to fear is Jiraiya.
Qianhe also trusts her teacher in this regard.
After thinking for a while, Qian He chuckled and said, "I should be someone you can't afford to offend!"
Jiraiya raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
I haven’t been back to the village for too long, and I was actually mocked by a little devil.
[Negative emotions from Jiraiya, emotion value +10! The first time you get Jiraiya's negative emotions, you will be rewarded with the natural energy absorption skill! ]
Qianhe was immediately delighted, as expected, the rewards from the three ninjas were all good things.
Natural energy, this thing can be combined with one's own chakra to create fairy chakra!
Immortal mode!
Chiga had wanted this for a long time.
All of a sudden, Chiga's gaze towards Jiraiya became much softer.
"Hmm? Old man, is the education in ninja schools so bad now?"
Jiraiya rolled up his sleeves, wanting to teach Chiga a lesson.
"Don't!" Minato immediately stopped him when he saw this.
Jiraiya was slightly stunned. Did he enter the wrong village? As a Sannin with such a noble status, he couldn't even afford to offend a child?
Minato continued, "Chiga he is Kushina's apprentice."
That is Minato, who, in order to save his teacher's face, quickly revealed Chiga's identity.
It was different for Sarutobi Hiruzen who was standing aside. A look of disappointment appeared on his face while he was watching the show.
He originally wanted to see the scene where Jiraiya was chased by Kushina after beating Chiga.
After hearing that Chiga was Kushina's disciple, Jiraiya was shocked.
Then he said to Qian He very seriously: "I'm sorry, I spoke a little loudly just now!"
Now, it was Chiga's turn to be stunned. Is Kushina so powerful?
Minato whispered in Chiga's ear, "That's normal. I don't know what leverage Jiraiya-sensei has on Kushina. Anyway, Jiraiya-sensei treats Kushina like a mouse seeing a cat."
Upon hearing this, Qianhe suddenly realized what was going on. No wonder Kushina could speak so confidently at the beginning.
It seems that this handle is quite big!
"Well, since Jiraiya is back, you two haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's go downstairs and catch up first. I still have a lot of things to deal with."
Sarutobi Hiruzen gave Minato a look, meaning that he hoped Minato would persuade Jiraiya not to fly around anymore.
Minato nodded calmly.
He also didn't want his teacher to go out again.
After all, the ninja world seems to be peaceful, but no one knows whether there will be an accident like the Four-Tails Jinchuriki Lao Zi.
Who knows, the next time Jiraiya will appear in the Tsuchikage's office will be when he wakes up.
Coming out of the Hokage's office, it was almost noon again.
After some discussion, everyone decided to go for barbecue, and Jiraiya would treat them.
Jiraiya did not object, he just looked around curiously and frowned, "What's going on? I haven't been back to the village for more than half a year. Why do I feel so much stranger here?"
Following Jiraiya's gaze, everyone saw the Root ninja patrolling back and forth on the roof in a hurry.
"Perhaps Lord Danzo has some important mission."
Minato was also confused about the actions of the Root ninjas.
Only Qianhe present knew the reason.
Danzo Shimura is really a vengeful guy. He still receives negative emotions from Danzo Shimura from time to time.
The four of them came to a barbecue restaurant, and Jiraiya ate barbecue while talking about his recent situation over the past six months.
"Haha, Minato, you would never have thought that in the past six months, I have traveled all over the country of soup and finally completed a masterpiece! It will definitely be popular in the ninja world. As my disciple, you can take a look at it!"
"Well, although you two are still young, this book is still a good enlightenment reading for you."
As he spoke, Jiraiya took out three books and gave them to Chiga and the other two.
The book has a pink cover and a naked girl on it.
Minato's eyes lit up when he heard that, and he was about to reach out to take it, but when he saw Chiga was still there, he suddenly became serious.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiraiya, I'm a serious person and I won't read books like this!"
"Ah, you weren't like this before!"
Jiraiya was stunned, this time remembering that Kushina's disciple Chiga was still here.
It seems that this boy is Kushina's inspector.
"Kushina is just too strict with you. In fact, you should show some manliness sometimes, otherwise your future life will be miserable!"
I have always felt sorry for their misfortune and angry at their lack of resistance.
He also knew that his apprentice had bronchitis.
But it was too outrageous that he was even afraid of Kushina's disciples.
Minato smiled slightly, indicating that he was just enjoying being restrained by Kushina.
You, a single dog, won’t understand!
Jiraiya suddenly felt like he was stabbed in the chest.
When Jiraiya thought that he hadn't even held Tsunade's hand yet, he suddenly lost interest in preaching.
He then looked at Chiga and Kakashi, hoping to get some appreciation for his book from them.
However, Chiga and Kakashi just glanced at it casually and threw it aside.
Jiraiya was slightly stunned. This was the love story he had worked so hard to write.
Can't even the little brat stand to see this thing?
Do I really have a talent for writing books?
Looking at Jiraiya who was doubting his life, Minato remembered the task that Sarutobi Hiruzen had told him with his eyes, and asked, "Teacher Jiraiya, now that you are back, you won't be going out to collect materials again in the short term, right?"
"That's hard to say!"
Jiraiya hesitated.
There are some things I don't know whether I should tell Minato.
"Teacher Jiraiya, there is actually a hot spring in Konoha Village. Why don't you collect materials in your own village?"
