"It's back again!"

At the main entrance of Konoha, a white-haired traveler was carrying a bag and raising his neck to look at the tall door.

Under the scorching sun, that resolute face attracted everyone's attention.

The Chuunin on duty was extremely surprised and his eyes widened: "Jiraiya-sama!"

"It's me, you don't have to act like you've seen a ghost, right?"

"Uh, well... I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm a little excited."

"Work hard." Jiraiya waved his hand and strode inside.

"Yes!"

Encouraged by Lord Jiraiya, the gatekeeper became more energetic, and his sleepy state in the sun suddenly cheered up and became excited.

The sun shone on the street, illuminating Jiraiya's figure as he walked away.

Naruto Office.

The moment Sandai saw his beloved disciple, he was overjoyed and his face was full of smiles.

Jiraiya came straight to the long table, hesitated for a long time, but still did not tell the Toad Sage's prophecy. In the eyes of the third generation, the prophecy was illusory. Before, he went out to look for the "son of the prophecy" and was criticized for not doing his job properly.

Even if you say it, you probably won’t believe it, right?

Jiraiya thought, fearing that if he didn't get support, the news would leak out, causing huge panic.

This kind of thing still falls on one's own shoulders in the end.

He only reported on the search for Orochimaru and said he would stay in the village for a while.

The third generation said with relief: "You can stay here with peace of mind. Orochimaru's matter is not urgent. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to look back."

"I won't give up on him."

Jiraiya has a firm gaze. Even if his cherished friends go astray, he will personally save them!

Three generations sighed.

He understands the character of this idiot apprentice very well, so let him be.

"By the way, Yunyin's peace delegation is in the village recently. I'm not worried. I've sent several groups of people to take turns monitoring it. Don't be surprised."

"When I entered the village, I found many Kumo ninjas, all well behaved."

"The peace talks are progressing slowly, and they are tougher than expected." Sandai pressed his temples in despair.

Jiraiya discovered that the third generation was really old.

The once resolute and resolute Shinobu turned out to be dizzy due to the pull of negotiations.

Maybe he wasn't suitable to be Hokage from the beginning?

Maybe things would be a lot easier if Minato was still alive, or at least he could help share the worries.

These are just assumptions.

Jiraiya thought of his deceased disciple, feeling inexplicably sad in his heart, and his hearty voice became a little deeper: "I can't get involved in the peace talks, so I'm leaving now."

Near the door, an old voice came.

"At least stay a little longer this time so I can talk to you."

"Take care of yourself, eat more and sleep more, old man." Jiraiya closed the door, and the lock clicked loudly.

The third generation smiled helplessly.

If Minato Namikaze was the Hokage, his burden would be lighter, but it's a pity... When I think of Minato, I think of the mysterious man in the night of the Kyuubi, and then I think of Danzo, followed closely by the orphan Naruto, a series of troubles came to mind one after another.

"Well, we have to do things one by one."

Sandai took a long puff of cigarette, loosened his arms and legs a few times, and concentrated on reviewing the documents.

Jiraiya walked out of the Hokage building and strolled down the street.

When he comes back this time, he hopes to find the "man who shot down the moon" as Toad Immortal calls him, and then persuade him to change his ways and become a person who is beneficial to Konoha.

As a last resort, eliminate them.

Nipping disaster in the bud may change the prophecy.

However, in the vast sea of ​​people, it is extremely difficult to find someone who will commit crimes in the future.

If the wrong person is found, wouldn't it be unjust and manslaughter?

This is where Jiraiya is troubled.

Just as he was immersed in thought, a child with an excited face bumped into him head-on and knocked on his knee. His little face immediately wrinkled up, as if he was about to cry.

"Little Guitou, keep an eye on yourself as you walk."

Jiraiya frowned, picked up the child who had been knocked to the ground, pursed his lips, and looked at him curiously.

yellow hair?

The pure eyes seemed familiar.

The child who was about to shed tears did not cry like a storm. Instead, he held it back firmly. He covered his face with his little hands and whispered in pain.

Behind him was the shop owner who rushed to the street and looked around.

Jiraiya suddenly saw the plastic toy in the child's hand and probably understood the reason.

"Did you steal something?"

"No, they won't sell it to me." The child said aggrievedly and took out a few coins from his trouser pocket with his right hand.

Yes, you have money, but why do you do this?

Jiraiya felt some inexplicable affection for the child in front of him. It looked like the doll was only three or four years old. His clothes were not neat and tidy, and he seemed to lack human care.

"Okay, let me help you pay."

"Thank you, grandpa!"

"Master... Master?" Jiraiya held his breath, "I just have gray hair! Where are your family members?"

The child didn't answer, his eyes lowered.

Jiraiya suddenly understood that he might have asked about a pain point. There were many children in Konoha who lost their parents due to the war. Some of them were in orphanages, and some were raised by individuals or families.

The one in front of me may be one of them.

"Okay, okay, let's go. Be careful next time you walk."

Jiraiya didn't pay attention and helped give the money. When he turned around, he found two ninjas quietly following the child.

strange?

Secretly tracking or protecting?

Could it be that he is the child of a big family?

At this time, the boss muttered to himself: "How can I ask for Jiraiya-sama's money? You are so kind-hearted, and you even helped the demon fox give money..."

"Monster fox?"

"Yes, yes, it's true. I don't know what the higher-ups think, putting such dangerous things outside. We don't dare to sell things to him."

"Could it be that……"

A flash of lightning flashed across Jiraiya's mind, "What's his name?"

"It seems to be called Uzumaki Naruto." The boss rolled his eyes and thought hard.

"Uzumaki...Naruto!" Jiraiya felt like he was struck by lightning.

The protagonist of his first novel was named Naruto. At that time, Minato admired the character's perseverance and personality and joked that he would give this name to his own child.

So, this child is Minato's orphan?

Jiraiya had not been in Konoha for a long time, and every time he returned to the village, he only stayed for a short time and did not pay attention to this matter - Minato's child.

Normally, Konoha's orphans would be arranged in a centralized manner. It had already become a system. The son of the Fourth Hokage would naturally be properly protected and would not have a bad life no matter what. This was the Hokage's responsibility and he did not interfere.

When I saw it today, it seemed that the situation was different from what I imagined.

Demon fox?

Jiraiya knew that it was the Kyuubi that was sealed. He confirmed with the Third Generation at that time that Minato and Kushina both sacrificed themselves to seal the Kyuubi, and the Jinchuriki chosen turned out to be his son.

It's no wonder that he has the blood of the Uzumaki clan.

But did the top management allow the rumors of the demon fox to spread?

How could the son of a hero become like this!

Jiraiya was confused and followed Naruto.
