"This will is really admirable!"

Even if he is an enemy, the Raikage has a deep respect for him.

"Yes, even though he was seriously injured, he still blocked our pursuit."

Kirabi couldn't help but feel a little moved when he looked at the Hokage's body that was still upright even though he was dead.

"A great ninja indeed!"

Hibiscus climbed up from the ground with difficulty. Even he felt his body was slightly numb due to the large amount of thunder and lightning that had just burst out from the inside.

"In this way, we will win this war!"

Even the Raikage could not hide his excitement at this time. For the first time since the founding of the village, Kumogakure defeated Konoha head-on on the battlefield.

After losing the third Hokage and facing a battle with Sunagakure and Iwagakure, Konoha was helpless.

"Then Bi and I will return to the village early tomorrow morning, and I'll leave the rest to you, Tutai."

The Raikage ordered Dodai to continue to garrison here. The Konoha troops without their commander will no longer be able to compete with Kumogakure in a short time. The defeated party has already appeared, and Konoha will most likely not launch a counterattack.

Konoha was defeated, and the Raikage did not dare to stay here to stimulate Konoha. The five villages were rivals and checks and balances on each other. If Kumogakure were to destroy Konoha, they would immediately become the target of public criticism, not to mention the biggest one. Maybe it was a fight to the death with Konoha. Raikage was already very satisfied with the outcome of the third Hokage's death.

He only needs to keep his troops here, cooperate with Sunagakure and Iwagakure, and put pressure on Konoha.

"Understood, Raikage-sama, we will wait here for Konoha to surrender."

Tudai understood and understood Raikage's intention.

"I will bring Naruto's body back."

The Raikage took out the scroll and placed Sarutobi Hiruzen's body inside. The corpse of a character like Naruto is of great significance, and experienced ninjas can learn many secrets of Konoha from it.

"Hibiscus, please follow me back to the village!"

After thinking about it, Raikage decided to bring Hibiscus back with him. Leaving the murderer of Naruto here would only irritate Konoha.

"Okay, big brother!" The two agreed simply.

Raikage looked satisfied. After experiencing another war, his foster brother had become much more mature.

……

After a night's rest, everyone's wounds were simply bandaged.

Early in the morning, the three of them set out on the return journey.

"Bi, we need to intensify training after we go back. Our cooperation is still not enough. This time we were easily separated by the people of Konoha!"

Raikage was very dissatisfied with the performance of the two of them this time. The power of the AB combination was not used at all.

Kirabi's figure suddenly froze.

"Huh?" Raikage asked in confusion.

"I'm sorry, brother, there is a rap star coming to perform in Iron Country, so..."

Kirabi smiled sheepishly and disappeared with a "bang", leaving a small piece of octopus tentacles in place.

"What? Bi!" Raikage made an incredulous voice.

"Oh, second brother ran away too?" Mu Jin's voice suddenly came.

'also? ’ Raikage fell into great confusion.

"I'm sorry, brother. I'll be out for a while. I'll be back soon. Don't worry about me..."

Hibiscus's body turned into electricity and dissipated in the air.

"You actually used your clone to trick me!" Raikage was furious.

On the other side, Mu Jin received the memory from the shadow clone.

‘I didn’t expect that I would bump into my second brother. It will be difficult to go back now! ’

Hibiscus was a little embarrassed. The two brothers went out to skip work together, and they had to peel off their skin after returning home.

‘Forget it, let’s talk about going back later. ’

Hibiscus comforted herself and ran towards the direction she had already set - the Hidden Mist Village.

-

The battlefield between Konoha and Sunagakure.

"Did the old man just leave like this..."

The white-haired Toad Immortal looked sad and a little at a loss.

'The fate of a ninja is to die in battle, but...'

Jiraiya had understood the fate of ninjas very early on, but when faced with the death of his master, it was still a little hard to accept.

They had just led their troops to repel a wave of attacks from Sunagakure, and then they received bad news.

"Don't tell anyone else this news yet."

Jiraiya reminded the messenger ninja that if news of Naruto's death were received at this time, the depressed morale would affect everyone, and the combat effectiveness of Konoha's troops would be significantly reduced.

The subordinate agreed, knowing that what Jiraiya said made sense.

"Jiraiya-sama, the higher-ups in the village want you to return to the village immediately!"

The ninja who conveyed the message showed an earnest look.

'Go back to the village...'

Jiraiya knew what it meant to return to the village at this time. He looked at the eager eyes of his subordinates and couldn't help but want to avoid them.

"Tell the village that I'm going to fight Sunagakure's troops here."

The subordinates accepted the order with some disappointment. At this time, what Konoha needed most was a new Hokage.

'Hokage...'

Jiraiya understood the village's plan, and his appointment as Hokage could inject calm into the panicked village.

But how can a wanderer become Hokage? Jiraiya knew what kind of person he was, and he was not suitable to be the Hokage of Konoha.

'When the war is over, go find Tsunade and come back. She is the only one suitable to become Hokage. ’ Jiraiya had a plan.

-

"Duanzo, why are you back?" Koharu was a little surprised when he went to bed.

"Don't worry, the war with Iwagakure has basically stabilized. It doesn't matter if I'm not here."

Upon hearing the news of the death of the Third Hokage, Shimura Danzo rushed back to Konoha overnight.

Today's Konoha F3 is being discussed.

"We have sent people to notify Jiraiya. As long as he comes back..." Mito Kadoyan said the two people's decision.

"It's impossible for Jiraiya to return. He has already rejected the position of Hokage several times. What's more, with his out-of-the-box personality, are you sure he is suitable to be Hokage?"

Danzo was sure that Jiraiya would not be his rival, but there was a hint of envy in his eyes. Why didn't anyone invite me to be Hokage?

"Then...we send people to find Tsunade?"

Thinking of Jiraiya's usual unreliable performance, Koharu and Men Yan also hesitated and put forward new suggestions.

"It's too late! Every extra day of delay will cause more losses to the village. I think we should directly apply to the Iron Country to convene the Five Shadows Conference."

Danzo put forward his own suggestion, and if the decision continues, it will be disrupted. This time Konoha is destined to cut off the flesh and stop the loss. Making an early decision can reduce the loss.

"But Hiruzen has just died, and the new Hokage hasn't been chosen yet." Koharu hesitated.

"I will go as the acting Hokage, there is no room for further delay!"

Danzo said there was no need to delay and he could only work hard on himself.

After much hesitation, the two agreed to Danzo's proposal.
