Naruto the Strongest Hatake

Chapter 349 'Letter' Dog Parker
A word to wake up the dreamer.

Looking at Jiraiya with calm brows and a clear expression in front of him, Hiruzaru Sarutobi suddenly realized how narrow-minded he was who was entangled in the dilemma before.

"Just do as you say!"

Jiraiya's proposal, like a spring of ice, subdued Sarutobi Hiruzaru's fatigue and boredom for days.

The veined right hand picked up a pen and scribbled down the decision on the paper, and then handed it over to Anbu and asked Anbu to hand it over to the liaison team for them to be responsible for sending it to the front.

After doing all this, Hiruza Sarutobi looked at Jiraiya and said: "I am old, I thought I could work hard for a few more days, but now I find that I am not just exhausted physically and mentally. Jiraiya, Konoha's future, I I can only entrust it to you!"

Unexpectedly, Zilai, who didn't expect him to say it directly, was also taken aback, and couldn't help saying: "I'm not interested."

"It's not a matter of whether you are interested or not. Ninjas are dedicated to the village... as long as the village needs you, you must stand up for it."

"I am willing to dedicate everything to the village, even my life... But, I cannot fulfill your wish alone."

Ji Lai also refused very simply.

He thought of Shuo Mao, who was dead in the cold room in the winter night.

Shuo Mao's death made him realize that Ying is not only an existence of selfless dedication, but also an existence stained with the blood of his own people who will ignore the boundaries of good and evil when necessary.

Jiraiya does everything he wants in his life, so he can't do shadows that occasionally need to do things against his will.

Seeing that Jiraiya rejected him without hesitation, Hiruzaru Sarutobi seemed very helpless, "Why do you always refuse to respond to me? Among my three students, you are the most suitable person to sit in this position ah……"

"I'm not the most suitable," Ji Lai also smiled wryly, "The person who is most suitable to sit in this position was abandoned by you!"

After speaking, Zilai also strode away.

……

Hiruzaru Sarutobi sat stiffly on Hokage's office chair, the lingering smoke curled up from the pipe.

I don't know how long I sat there, but my whole body hunched as if I was exhausted, and said with a long sigh: "Suo Mao, maybe, I'm really sorry for you..."

On the eaves outside the window, an Anbu wearing a fox mask stood there silently.

After hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's emotional sound, his body trembled subconsciously, and the next moment, he left this place with teleportation.
-
The border of the country of rivers.

Orochimaru looked extremely gloomy looking at the instructions sent by Hiruzaru Sarutobi.

In the letter of challenge, he listed two options for Hiruza Sarutobi.One is to take the initiative to challenge the Land of Earth, and the other is to retreat directly.

He only wanted to see these two choices, and he also made relevant responses for these two choices.

It's just that I didn't expect that the old man was so old and cunning that he ignored the two choices he gave and gave him the third choice.

As for the third option, it is clear that he leads a large army to retreat, leaving only some elites here to disgust the country of rivers.

What is this!

He was a little annoyed that this third choice disrupted all his plans.

But this is Hokage's instruction after all, even if he doesn't want to, he can only hold his nose to carry it out.

Forget it, the future is long, let's go back and do experiments first!
After some deliberation, Namikaze Minato, Hatake Fuan, Gongchu, Yingu, Younv Zhiwei and some of the elites of the Yunv clan, some of the elites of Su Heng and the Ibli clan, and the medical ninja Tsunade down.

Others retreated to the Land of Fire through the Land of Rivers in batches.

"I also want to go back to recuperate..." Su Heng looked bitterly at the first batch of retreating ninjas, and complained to Fu An beside him: "My wife has finished giving birth at home, and I always feel uneasy when I am not by her side .”

"Just be patient for a while," Gong Chu who was behind him suddenly said, "You should think this way, when you go back after completing your mission, a pink and tender baby will chase you with arms like lotus roots Please give me a hug... that would be a real surprise!"

"I don't want surprises, I just want Xiaoyuan..."

"Don't be so family-loving, a man! Who doesn't have many relatives who are worried about..." A certain elderly oily girl suddenly put his hand on Su Heng's shoulder, and laughed: "Look out, we What you are doing now is to protect the people you care about!"

The person you care about?
Gong Chu couldn't help thinking of the two younger sisters in his family.

Namikaze Minato rang Kushina, who was still yelling that she had to come with her when she came...

But before Fu An's eyes, Kakashi's stubborn and awkward figure appeared.

Really, I don't know how that guy is doing now...

Thinking of this, he summoned Parker to see if there was any news about Kakashi.

Seeing that he still thought of such a trick, the people who stayed behind were all overjoyed, and begged Parker to help them contact their families.

"Small things..." Parker stretched out his front paw and licked it. After a long time, he continued, "It's just that some errand fees are needed!"

"We have money..."

"I don't want money."

"Then what do you want? As long as we can do it, we will try our best to satisfy you..."

"I want Baiqiwu's crispy bone sticks, lots and lots of crispy bone sticks!"

……

Since then, in Konoha Village, the busy little figure of Ninja Dog Parker has often been seen.

Because he ran back and forth to help everyone deliver letters, Parker the Ninja Dog has the nickname "Park the Letter Dog".

And at the back of every letter he sent home, there would be words like 'buy as many crispy bone sticks for Parker'.
-
One day, after delivering a letter from home to a certain family of the Younv clan, Parker ran towards the old house of Qimu with a crisp bone stick in his mouth.

But when passing through a deserted alley, he smelled a familiar atmosphere.

He looked left, right, front, back, up and down, and sniffed around again. After making sure that there was no special person nearby, he ran into the alley and walked to the innermost alley consciously.

There, stood a masked man in a black robe wearing a bamboo hat.

Parker consciously walked over and snuggled at his feet, looking around vigilantly and asked, "Although it is wartime, there are still many ninjas in the village. Are you not afraid of being discovered if you are active in the village at this time?"

"There are some things that must be done..."

"need my help?"

"I've already done those things..."

"Then why don't you go?"

"I think..." The man leaned against the wall and said with a helpless wry smile, "I want to see Kakashi more, so I stayed for a little longer."

"Really..." After swallowing the crisp bone stick, Parker, who was snuggling under his feet, licked his front paws and said, "Maybe it's time for you to show your face properly. It's really inconvenient to move alone. I'll see you soon." I will go to Kakashi, you follow me secretly, remember not to let others find out!"
