Konoha's Embrace of Shadows

Chapter 34 Situation

The Hokage Building, in the Hokage's office. .1kanshu

A ninja belonging to the Konoha Intelligence Team was reporting the latest news to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Currently at the junction of the Land of Fire and the Land of Land in the north, a team led by Jonin Namikaze Minato discovered a large number of Cloud Ninjas and even discovered a military base. We have reason to believe that the Kingdom of Thunder is preparing for Prepare to invade the Land of Fire.”

This is really bad news. Sarutobi Hiruzen's face darkened and he said coldly: "Tell the frontline headquarters that as long as the Kumo ninja crosses the border,"

He made a slashing gesture, and the intelligence ninja suddenly understood: "Understood, Hokage-sama!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of dry cigarette and then said: "Tell me about the defense line of Earth Kingdom!"

"As for the war between us and the Iwa Ninja, it's very strange. Half a month ago, our side was at a disadvantage in terms of military strength and had been invaded by the Iwa Ninja at the border of the Land of Fire. But suddenly the other side gave up the attack and turned to defense. , just constantly stabilizing the defense lines in the Country of Grass and the Country of Taki."

As small countries sandwiched between two big countries, the Country of Grass and the Country of Taki have no ability to resist at all, so the competition between the two big countries is basically between these two small countries.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was calm, but he was overjoyed in his heart. He knew that his fake defense deployment map had reached the Kingdom of Earth. He was not going to launch a large-scale attack now, but was just looking for a suitable opportunity.

"It seems our plan has been successful!"

The intelligence ninja was stunned when he heard this, and then said in surprise: "Hokage-sama, you mean"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and continued to ask: "Has there been any news from our intelligence ninjas in Earth Country?"

"Sorry, our intelligence ninja's status in the Earth Kingdom is not high, so we probably don't have access to this kind of confidential information."

Hearing that there was no news, Sarutobi Hiruzen was really relieved: "That's good. The deeper Onoki conceals it, the more he believes in the authenticity of this information! Well, don't worry about the soil for the time being. How is the situation here in the Kingdom of Wind?"

"This front was the calmest and nothing major happened."

According to the current policy of Konoha, it is to establish defense lines in the direction of the Kingdom of Thunder, the Kingdom of Earth, and the Kingdom of Wind. It does not require the small countries among them to have much military power, as long as they stabilize the defense lines on their own borders.

Currently, there are three lines of defense. The Kingdom of Thunder is trying to attack, and the Kingdom of Earth is also waiting for an opportunity to attack. As for the Kingdom of Wind, although it is calm, it is the most dangerous. As the saying goes, only dogs that don't bark will bite!

The whole situation is not optimistic.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was already considering whether he needed to send a powerful ninja to sit on the Wind Kingdom front line. After thinking about it, he said, "Is Jiraiya healed?"

"All right!"

"Oh? Then what has he been doing recently?"

The ninja who reported had a strange look on his face and hesitated: "Well, Jiraiya-sama has been with Tsunade-sama these days."

"Really!" Hiruzen Sarutobi heard this and muttered to himself: "That's fine, I hope he can change some of Tsunade's thoughts."

Tsunade was in something wrong. As her teacher, Sarutobi Hiruzen had already known it. It was just because he was too busy and couldn't spare the time to talk to Tsunade, not to mention that Tsunade didn't necessarily want to talk to him. .

It would undoubtedly be better for him to let Jiraiya go. The original idea of ​​letting Jiraiya go to the front line was temporarily extinguished.

The intelligence officer thought about it and decided that it was still necessary to tell Hiruzen Sarutobi some facts.

"Well, Hokage-sama, in fact, Jiraiya-sama was not looking for Tsunade-sama in the past."

"Ok?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned. It's not like he didn't know Jiraiya's feelings for Tsunade. Even though he was beaten half to death, he didn't say a bad word about Tsunade. If he didn't look for Tsunade at Tsunade's residence, he would still look for her. who.

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't believe it, the intelligence ninja continued:

"Since Tsunade-sama once said that we would not be allowed near her residence, what we saw is not very accurate, but Jiraiya-sama has been with Kushina's disciple Kamiya Genji, and we have seen him and him several times. Genji goes to various entertainment venues.”

"What did you say?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly stood up from his position and cursed angrily: "This bastard! He doesn't know how to do anything serious! Go over now and tell him to get out of here."

"Hi!"
