Konoha Steady King

Chapter 37 Escort Mission

The strategy of the Kingdom of Wind was not very clever, but it was seen through by Hiruzen Sarutobi at a glance, but it was so good that no one could refuse it.The wealthy Konoha will not refuse the land that comes to them, even if it may cause deeper hatred and a more tragic war.

These days, landlords don’t have any surplus food, so don’t give it up for free.

As a result, the content of the armistice treaty was successfully initially reached, and the next step was to select a signing location.Due to various considerations, the Third Kazekage requested to sign a treaty in Platycodon Castle, the largest city in Akihabara. However, the old fox Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen vetoed this proposal and unilaterally announced a signing ceremony at the border of the Land of Fire.Although he was very dissatisfied with Sarutobi Hiruzen's hooligan behavior, the Third Kazekage still agreed, and people had to bow their heads under the roof.

After all the preparations were arranged, Sarutobi Hiruzen began to consider selecting ninjas to escort the Fire Country daimyo and his party to sign the treaty.

In name only, the daimyo is the head of state, and the entire territory is under the jurisdiction of the daimyo, but that is only in name.In fact, the daimyo of the Land of Fire only have economic and administrative rights in the territory, and the most important military power is controlled by the Hokage.It is equivalent to a disguised thug-employer relationship.

The Fire Country daimyo provides Konoha with massive military expenses every year, while Konoha Village is responsible for protecting territorial security. The two are integrated and do not interfere with each other.Although the daimyo has the power to hold meetings to replace the Hokage, more than 40 years have passed, and no daimyo dares to do so.After all, the minds of violent groups cannot be shaken by ordinary people. Those who dare to challenge may be gone tomorrow.

As for the escort, Hiruzen Sarutobi would of course have to choose from his three apprentices. Could it be possible to give it to the red-eyed Uncle Yu in Uanfan Alley?It doesn't exist. This kind of advantage to bring the relationship closer is even Hinata's turn but not Uchiha's turn.

Among the three disciples, Tsunade was no longer on the same side as Sarutobi Hiruzen due to the incident with the Senju clan, so she was eliminated first; Orochimaru was strong and calm, but he was too cold and would scare the daimyo, so he was also eliminated; In the end, there is still one Jiraiya who is rough but somewhat lustful. It seems that there are many beauties in the capital. I wonder if it will cause trouble...

Sarutobi Hiruzen rubbed his brows in distress, frustration welling up in his heart.The successors you have trained since childhood are more and more outrageous. Is there anything worse than this?

After much deliberation, Hiruzen Sarutobi decided to send Jiraiya. Although Jiraiya was lustful, drunk, and carefree, he was the taller among the dwarfs, and he was the only one among the three ninjas that Hiruzen Sarutobi could do. dessert.

"Call Jiraiya." Sarutobi Hiruzen called to the empty office.

An ANBU emerged from the shadows and walked away after receiving the order.

All ANBU ninjas know that if you want to find Tsunade, go to the casino, because the money-lending boy must be gambling; if you want to find Orochimaru, go to his secret hut, but it's best not to go in, as it's easy to get into trouble; if you want to find Jiraiya, go to Fengqing Street or Fengqing Street or When it comes to bathhouses, make sure you find the right one.

Jiraiya, who had lipstick marks on his face, walked into the camp's temporary Hokage's office as if he were at his own home. He slapped himself on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked at the ground with dull eyes. His whole body instantly entered a state of resisting ideological education.

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "..."

If it weren't for the purpose of cultivating successors, labor and management would have to give you two big mouths.

"Jiraiya, don't go to those places with fireworks. Sex is like a bone-scraping steel knife. Young people should exercise restraint." Sarutobi Hiruzen said earnestly.

Jiraiya couldn't help but nodded, and Sanlian blurted out perfunctorily: "Yes, I understand, I will do it next time."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's blood pressure rose, he muttered "Don't be angry, it's all your own choice" and then returned to calm.

"Go and fetch the daimyo. The signing ceremony will be held next..."

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could finish speaking, Jiraiya stood up and turned to leave.Are you kidding me? After finally ending a large-scale war, it is a great time to search for flowers and materials, and pick up the name of a ghost. Even if the king of heaven is here today, I will never give in.

"I recently invented a telescope technique."

Just a few words made Jiraiya's legs unable to move any longer, and a tangled look flashed across his face. He had better become solemn and said solemnly: "As a member of Konoha, you should contribute to the village. This I accepted the mission."

No one can escape the law of true fragrance, and Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, is not worth mentioning in front of the law.

Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a proud smile and successfully captured the heart of a handsome man, making him feel extremely comfortable.

"But this task is difficult."

"Difficult tasks can reflect the resilience of Konoha ninjas, leave it to me and you can rest assured!" Jiraiya said.

"No, no, I think Orochimaru is more suitable for this task than you." Sarutobi Hiruzen said eagerly.

Jiraiya saw that the telescope technique was about to slip away from his hands, and said anxiously: "I was the one who came here first!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked: "Can you promise not to go to Fengqing Street?"

"can!"

"Can you promise not to drink alcohol or collect materials?"

Jiraiya gritted his teeth and said cruelly for the sake of future happiness: "Yes!"

After nodding with satisfaction, Sarutobi Hiruzen continued: "Take Minato Team with you. At the same time, I will send two teams of Anbu to guard secretly. By the way, what do you think of Baiyun Hazan in Minato Team?"

Jiraiya touched his hair in confusion and asked: "Isn't the Minato team always Inuzuka E, Akimichi Toto, and Shimura Shinji? Where did Baiyun Yeshan come from?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "..."

"Go away, go and perform the mission immediately!"

Jiraiya ran out of the office in embarrassment amidst the roar of his master. As soon as he went out, he straightened his waist and became serious, and walked away amidst the greetings of the ninjas he met.

After Hiruzen Sarutobi scolded the unreliable Jiraiya, he picked up a report placed in the drawer and read it carefully. His eyebrows furrowed from time to time showed his displeasure.

This second investigation report on Baiyun Hayama made Sarutobi Hiruzen slightly dissatisfied.Hatake Sakumo's influence in the camp obscured the authenticity of the root's first investigation. However, as Hayama's strength continued to improve, and he was in Konoha's sensitive star team, Sarutobi Hiruzen opened the second surveys.

In the report, the head of the investigation team, Sarutobi Hakata, wrote Hayama a comment that he had no will to fire. This made Sarutobi Hiruzen alert, and he was thinking about whether to bring Hayama out of the Minato team. However, he had no reasonable excuse and was afraid of being cold. heart, which made him very distressed.

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind, a ninja who does not support the concept of the Will of Fire is useless.

Although Konoha is small, there are many factions, and there is no meritocracy at all. Otherwise, how could the powerful Uchiha clan be promoted to the top.

The Will of Fire is very complicated to say, but there is only one core standard, which can be summarized as follows: listen to the shadow's command, have a good style, and be able to win the battle, among which listening to the shadow's command is the most important.

Although there is no record of disobedience in Hayama's report, you can feel free to accuse someone of it. Sometimes, it's not up to you to decide whether it's okay or not.If others say you can do it, you have to do it if you can't; if others say you can't do it, you have to do it if you can.

..........

The next day, the Minato team, led by Jiraiya, quietly disappeared into the camp to perform escort missions.

Hayama watched Jiraiya's tall body walking through the strongest side of the team, carefully thinking about the danger of the mission.

Obviously, the Third Hokage sent Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, to perform the mission not only to train successors, but also to prevent accidents.

From this perspective, it is clear where the potential danger comes from. Kirigakure, who is fighting fiercely with the Uchiha clan at the border, has sufficient reasons to take action.

The armistice between the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Fire has the greatest impact on the Kingdom of Water.Once Konoha frees up its hands to concentrate its forces against them, the consequences can be imagined.Due to emotions and reasons, Kirigakure would send ninjas to assassinate the daimyo to prevent the signing of the armistice treaty.

But the daimyo's special status in the country determined that Kirigakure did not dare to take action in the capital, even if they had ten courages.Assassinating the daimyo of the largest nation in the ninja world in the capital, the daimyo of the land of water must be the first to jump out and rebuke Kirigakure.

You know, in the final analysis, the daimyo is just an ordinary person with power and cannot compete with ninjas.Once Kirigakure sets a precedent of assassinating a daimyo in the capital, he will immediately become the target of crusade by the entire ninja world. Even the daimyo of the Land of Water will declare to reorganize the Ninja Village and completely abandon Kirigakure Village.

There is no way, as long as you have territory and property, you can have as many ninjas as you want. The entry barrier for this thing is not high, as long as you basically have the skills.

The lack of production of ninjas determines that they rely on the daimyo for their financial resources, and the safety and status of the daimyo are determined by the strength of the ninja village, forming a situation of mutual win-win and mutual assistance.

Therefore, Kirigakure's assassins would only attack after leaving the capital.Of course, the motives of other ninja villages to frame him and frame him cannot be completely ruled out.

The task of escorting the daimyo was destined to not be easy from the moment he left the capital and returned.

Two days later, the capital of the Country of Fire appeared in Hayama's sight.The capital of the Land of Fire is located in the center of the continent, with developed transportation and flat terrain. With this advantage, it has successfully developed into the largest city in the ninja world.

To be honest, Hayama, who has been accustomed to waiting in the shadows for many years, has entered the world of ordinary people for the first time.Hayama and Yamashiro Tatsu once discussed how to identify ninjas in the bustling streets, and finally came to the conclusion that those who like to walk in the shade and have their hands hanging motionless on their thighs must be ninjas.

At the entrance of the city gate, Jiraiya took out the official letter from the Hokage to the daimyo, and then followed the nodding and bowed young officer to Konoha's exclusive station to rest and wait for the daimyo's summons.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, Jiraiya, who was full of uprightness, patted Minato on the shoulder, said something about "walking around", and walked away in a flash.

Minato smiled bitterly. He naturally knew what his master was doing, but he couldn't say anything. After all, who doesn't have a personal preference?
