Flowing Water of Konoha

Jiraiya suppressed the anger in his eyes. Now is not the time to settle accounts with Orochimaru. Konoha's crisis has not yet been resolved.

After finishing the battle, the ninjas came to the roof to see the body of the Sandaime Hokage lying peacefully on the roof. Many ninjas collapsed and knelt down, covering their faces and crying... Only a few clan leaders stood with gloomy faces. It's hard to tell what they're thinking.

After Jiraiya left, Liu Shui followed other ninjas to fight in various battlefields in Konoha. Liu Shui also gained some fame with his outstanding "Water Dragon Bullet" and "Earth Dragon Bullet".

At night in the Sarutobi family home, Sarutobi Asuma knelt down in front of the funeral hall of Sarutobi Hiruzen, and his whole body was hit hard.He still couldn't believe the fact that his father was killed by Orochimaru.

Even Sarutobi Konohamaru, who used to be naughty and mischievous, has lost his former liveliness. He knows that he can no longer challenge his grandfather.The Sarutobi family became a little depressed today.

Jiraiya staggered into the Sarutobi family, and the Sarutobi people he saw on the road just nodded to show respect.

When he walked into the mourning hall and saw Sarutobi Asuma and Sarutobi Konohamaru kneeling, Jiraiya didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only kneel down next to Asma.

At Kamikawa's house, Liu Shui sat in the yard and looked at the moon in the night sky after finishing training as usual.

The only difference from the past was that Liu Shui truly saw the insignificance of life in the ninja world. Even the powerful Hiruzen Sarutobi did not die today.

Liu Shui took action this time because he didn't want to see his familiar neighbors and acquaintances die because of the so-called war.

Tonight the running water sat in the yard until early the next morning.

early morning.Keiko Kamikawa walked out of the room wearing a black kimono and looked worried at the flowing water sitting in the yard.

Kamikawa Keiko: "Ah Shui, are you okay?"

Kamikawa Ryushui: "Mom, I'm fine. I just think this ninja world is too bad!"

Kamikawa Keiko: What are you talking about? Isn't this always the case in the ninja world?

Liu Shui stood up and walked into the room. After washing, he opened the closet and took out a black kimono from the bottom. This was bought by Keiko Kamikawa when Liu Shui graduated from the ninja school.

After putting on her kimono, Liu Shui walked from the room to the dining room. The breakfast Keiko Kamikawa prepared today was very simple, only eggs and white porridge.

While eating breakfast, it started to drizzle in the sky, as if feeling sad for the ninja who died in this battle.

After walking out of their homes, Liu Shui and Kamikawa Keiko each held a black umbrella and joined the similarly dressed crowd in the street.

As the crowd walked slowly for about an hour, stone tombstones gradually appeared in their sight.

Finally, the crowd stopped in front of four tall tombstones, which are the places where the "shadows" of Konoha's past have rested after their deaths.

One of the tombstones was much newer than the other three, and it read "Grave of the Sandaime Hokage."

At the front of the crowd, Jiraiya and Asuma Sarutobi were dressed in black mourning clothes and bowed three times deeply to the "Grave of the Sandaime Hokage".

After they bowed, the crowd bowed deeply as a sign of respect to the Hokage.

The crowd then came to the tomb of Liu Shui's grandfather, Kamikawa Okora, together with Keiko Kamikawa.

Rishui and his mother left the cemetery after worshiping. Konoha today was shrouded in grief.

The information that the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was killed by the S-rebellious ninja Orochimaru during the chunin exams spread throughout the ninja world.

In a tavern, a woman with blond hair and a particularly broad mind heard that Sarutobi Hiruzen was killed by Orochimaru.She drank from morning until night, until a woman holding a pink pig took her away.

In Fuyin Village, an old lady was sitting by the pond with a sad look on her face. The news from Konoha was not only the death of Hiruzen Sarutobi, but also the death of the fourth Kazekage of Sand Ninja.

The death of the Fourth Kazekage had dealt a heavy blow to her, and it was already difficult for the Sand Ninja to find a ninja who could be the Kazekage.

In Tsuchigakure Village, a short old man couldn't help but sigh when he heard the news of Sarutobi Hiruzen's death. Konoha has lost a third generation Hokage and there are still candidates who can be fifth generation Hokage. It's not like he is still supporting Tsuchikage at this age. s position.

In the Hidden Water Village, a woman with a mop haircut sat in the water office and saw the information about the death of Sarutobi Hiruzen without showing any expression. They were here on an island far away from the mainland.

In Leiyin Village, a dark-skinned middle-aged man received the news that Sarutobi Hiruzen was dead. He punched the desk to pieces with joy. If not for the persuasion of his subordinates, he would have immediately invaded the Land of Fire.

Konoha Village, in the conference room of the Hokage Building.After the funeral of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Jiraiya immediately notified all jounin to attend the meeting.

Jiraiya sat in the first seat to the left of the Hokage's seat. He looked at the jonin and the two Hokage assistants attending the meeting.

Jiraiya: "The Third Hokage has passed away, and Konoha cannot live without Hokage for a day. I recommend... Tsunade Hime, one of the "Three Ninjas", to become the Fifth Hokage of Konoha!"

None of the jonin showed any surprise when they heard what Jiraiya said. They all knew that only Tsunade was qualified to become the Fifth Hokage.

The granddaughter of Tsunade Konoha's first Hokage Senju Hashirama, known as the "God of the Ninja World"...the granddaughter of the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama...the apprentice of the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen...one of the famous "Three Ninjas" in the ninja world ...The director of Konoha Hospital again... No one is more qualified to be the Fifth Hokage than her.

Koharu went to bed: "But...Tsunade has never been in the village. How can we find her?"

Mito Kabuto: "Yes, but I think you are also suitable to become the Fifth Hokage, Jiraiya."

When Mito Katoyan said these words, all the Jonin were a little moved. Regardless of his merits and strength, Jiraiya was suitable to become Hokage.

Jiraiya was a little helpless when he heard Mito Kabuto's words. He didn't want to sit in the office all day long and deal with countless documents.He had to get talent from everywhere to write "Intimate Paradise."

What's more important is that he wants to find Orochimaru, hammer him to the ground and ask why he killed Sarutobi-sensei...

Jiraiya: "I am not suitable to be Hokage. I still have important things to deal with. I will find Tsunade and convince her to become the Fifth Hokage."

The two Hokage assistants and the jounin didn't say anything more to persuade him. They could more or less see from Jiraiya's words that Jiraiya had no intention of becoming Hokage.

After the Jonin and the two Hokage assistants who attended the meeting left, Jiraiya called the ANBU to find out what happened in Konoha during this period and the situation of Uzumaki Naruto.

Through ANBU's explanation, Jiraiya learned about the existence of Kamikawa Ryushui and the letter of recommendation.After hearing Uzumaki Naruto's performance, Jiraiya finally smiled for the first time in two days.

Jiraiya plans to take Kamikawa Ryūshui and Uzumaki Naruto on a journey to find Tsunade.

After Jiraiya said a few words to the ANBU ninja, the ANBU ninja disappeared in an instant without knowing where to go.

In a house in Konoha, Uzumaki Naruto took out a relic given to his parents by Hiruzen Sarutobi, a three-pronged kunai with "Sword of Shinobi Love" written on it.

Uzumaki Naruto had been staring at this kunai since he came back from Sarutobi Hiruzen's funeral.

"Dong dong dong...dong dong...dong..." There was a knock on the door. Naruto put the "Sword of Ninja Love" under his pillow and jumped out of bed to open the door.

After the door opened, there was only a somewhat wretched middle-aged ninja uncle standing in front of his door. He had long white hair, the word "oil" written on his forehead protector, and was wearing a light green suit, a red mandarin jacket on the outside, and a fishnet on the inside. shaped lining.

Uzumaki Naruto: "Uncle! Who are you looking for?"

Jiraiya: "I am your father and master. I have been teaching you ninjutsu for a while now."

Uzumaki Naruto was pleasantly surprised when he heard that this was his parents' master, but that didn't mean that he knew who his parents were.
