Konoha's Destiny Twins

Shisui left, and judging from the direction he left, he should be heading back to his old place at Training Ground No. 43.

Originally, Qing Shui also planned to continue to concentrate on his cultivation, but

He had a slight headache. This person who had been peeping nearby for a while, Shisui had been gone for a long time, and he didn't show up quickly.

Finally, Qingshui couldn't help it any longer, and reminded him: "Senior Jiraiya, I have discovered you."

Although the amount of chakra currently perceived by the opponent is not at its peak, the familiar feeling is something that Jiraiya can't be wrong about.

But there was no movement.

The other party thinks that Qing Shui is deceiving him.

"Jiraiya-senpai, stop making trouble, I'm too familiar with your chakra."

Qing Shui frowned slightly, this was no longer a joke.

Sensitive, he secretly placed his left hand on the hilt of the sword, then stepped closer to the bush where Jiraiya was, and said at the same time: "Senior, did you hear what I said?"

His answer was still silence.

So Qingshui slowly pulled out his long sword and said softly: "Senior Jiraiya, this joke is not very funny."

However, when he got closer, Qing Shui actually smelled a faint smell of blood, and alarm bells rang in his heart.

"Although this is Konoha, even though you have Jiraiya's aura"

Qing Shui, who was ready for battle, no longer hesitated. He stepped forward fiercely, broke through the bushes, and slashed down with his sharp sword instantly.

"Jiraiya-senpai" Qing Shui's eyes widened, somewhat unbelievable at the scene he saw in front of him.

Behind the bushes was the seriously injured Jiraiya.

It was seen that his whole body was severely burned, and there were several horrific blood holes on his body, including a near-fatal penetrating wound on his chest.

I'm afraid half of the lungs were destroyed.

What kind of battle did Jiraiya go through to suffer such heavy losses?

“What the hell happened?”

"Hey, Xiao Qingshui, you are still holding the sword." Jiraiya barely opened his right eye, he panted.

"I'm sorry, senior." Qing Shui immediately sheathed his sword. He was still digesting the scene he saw in front of him: Jiraiya, who had always been free and unrestrained, strong and confident in his impression, was actually dying at this time.

"Senior, I will take you to Konoha Hospital first."

"The people who hurt me are Madara and Fei," Jiraiya said with difficulty.

At present, only the Sandaime Hokage or Shimizu can know about this matter. If you want to see the Sandaime Hokage, you must pass through the heavy guards of the ANBU, which Jiraiya cannot do with his current seriously injured body.So he chose to come to the No. 43 training ground, which has always been Qingshui's exclusive training ground.

As expected, Qing Shui was really here.

Now I can finally feel at ease

"Then I'll go find Hokage-sama first."

"The news that Jiraiya is seriously injured must not be leaked," the Sandaime Hokage said solemnly to the seven people in front of him.

Here are the four-man ANBU team directly under the Third Generation Hokage, as well as two senior medical ninjas who have been personally taught medical ninjutsu by Tsunade, and the discoverer of this emergency, Shimizu.

"Yes" everyone replied in unison.

The Sandaime Hokage simply gave the remaining six instructions on their tasks, and at the same time settled Jiraiya, and then called out Shimizu alone.

"Qingshui, tell me everything you know, in detail, don't miss anything."

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Soon Qingshui informed the Sandaime Hokage of everything that happened not long ago.

After hearing Shimizu's detailed explanation, the Ninja frowned deeply and pondered for a while before he slowly said: "Jiraiya was attacked by Madara and Fei at the border of Takino Country."

"Yes, and instead of the old and frail Madara, he has become a middle-aged man."

"This is ridiculous." The Sandaime Hokage shook his head and said in disbelief, "How can he regain his youth?"

"But this is Jiraiya-senpai's own words." Qingshui continued, "I think Hokage-sama should have heard from Jiraiya-senpai that Madara has turned into a middle-aged man of about 50 years old."

"When you said that, I remembered it."

At that time, the Sandaime Hokage heard this impossible conjecture and instantly rejected it.

How can people break the law of time and rejuvenate themselves?

In the long history of ninjas, we have never heard of anyone who could master the secret of time.

Not even the Immortal of Six Paths can

If the Immortal of Six Paths could control time, he would not age or die.

"Maybe Jiraiya was under a genjutsu"

"Although Jiraiya's illusions are weak, it is impossible for him in the sage state to be able to distinguish the enemy's true form."

The Sandaime Hokage continued to guess: "And he was injured by Wood Release and Fire Release, which happen to be the techniques that Fei and Madara are good at respectively."

"Is that middle-aged man really Madara?" The Sandaime Hokage pondered.

After digesting this shocking fact, the Sandaime Hokage continued: "Qingshui, how big a threat do you think Madara poses to Konoha?"

Let Qingshui answer this question

that is of course

"In my opinion, the entire threat from Kumogakure is not as serious as Madara alone." After saying this, Shimizu stared closely at the reaction of the Sandaime Hokage.

But the other party just nodded slightly: "You continue."

"The conflict and war between Kumogakure and Konoha are all on the surface, and the competition between the two sides is also foreseeable."

"However, until now, even though we have been in contact with Madara several times, and Jiraiya-senpai has gone out many times to inquire, we have not gotten any information about Madara."

"And Madara, unknowingly, has gone from that dying old man to a strong man who can seriously injure one of the three ninjas."

"He is Uchiha Madara, a hero who once competed with the first generation Hokage, the God of Ninja. Underestimating him and despising him will sooner or later make us pay a heavy price."

Shimizu's words are not unreasonable. If a man with great ambitions like Uchiha Madara really regains his strength, how could he not cause a bloody storm in the ninja world?

Moreover, the other party has old and new grudges with Konoha.

In addition, Konoha is in the light and the enemy is in the dark.

With an enemy like this always watching, who can live a stable life?

"You have a point"

"The medical team said it will take some time for Jiraiya to recover. Please be patient and wait for him to recover."

The Sandaime Hokage's eyes were sharp, and he said coldly: "If necessary, I will take action personally on Madara's matter."

It seems that Jiraiya's serious injury this time has given the Sandaime Hokage a new assessment of Madara's threat.

Although Anbu had lost a lot of hands due to Madara, they had not suffered any injuries after all. The main enemy of the war was not individuals like Madara who were separated from the big forces.

Therefore, the Third Hokage maintains his attitude toward Madara, but will not invest too much manpower and material resources in him.

But this time, it was his disciple, Jirai, one of the three ninjas, who almost died.

If Jiraiya had an accident at this juncture, the impact on Konoha would be disastrous.

Konoha is already missing a Tsunade, and it must not be missing another Jiraiya.

So now that such a bad incident has occurred, if the Sandaime Hokage does not pay attention to it or express anything, it will be really abnormal.
