Naruto starts from live broadcasting to the ninja world

That night

Jiraiya arrived at the entrance of the village.

"Huh? When did so many hotels get built near the village? And these people..."

He soon figured out what was going on.

"There are so many people in the ninja world, and I must be the one who likes me the most."

"…Now that the Hokage is no longer an old man, it would be inappropriate to go through the window again."

Muttering, Jiraiya sneaked into Konoha Village.

not long

Hokage Building.

When Jiraiya walked to the door of the Hokage's office, he heard Fugaku's voice coming from inside.

"As long as it is beneficial to the village, what does it matter if a traitor's identity is cancelled? Orochimaru is involved in a very wide range of fields, far beyond the reach of ordinary people. This deal is a good deal for the village."

Then came the voices of the two counselors.

"Now the eyes of the entire ninja world are on Konoha. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at for doing this to win over a traitor?"

"What's the difference between doing this and the Great Ninja Village giving in to a rebellious ninja? The village can't afford to lose face like that!"

"Hiruzen, what do you have in mind?"

"Haha, what you said makes sense."

Fugaku sighed.

This crappy Hokage, I really don’t want to do it for a single day.

Jiraiya knocked on the door.

"Enter."

Seeing the person coming, Tsuneyasu Koharu's brows relaxed.

"Jiraiya? You finally decided to come back."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said happily: "I never thought I could see you again in my lifetime. This old man has no regrets in his death."

Jiraiya scratched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly: "Look at what you said, didn't you just come back not long ago?"

Fugaku breathed a sigh of relief.

Here comes the help.

"Senior Jiraiya, you should have received the message I asked Itachi to pass on to you."

"Yes, I know exactly what happened."

Jiraiya looked at the two advisors, his face serious.

"Although I have some personal motives, I still support Fugaku's idea. I think the development of the village is more important than its reputation."

Mizuto Menyan looked helpless.

"Jiraiya, we are not that stubborn about this matter. It's really..."

"If this can really help the village develop rapidly, it's fine for the village to give in. We are not unaware of how powerful Orochimaru is in certain areas. But do you think that Orochimaru is a guy who can be easily worried?"

Utatane Koharu agreed, "That's right. We did think about finding a suitable reason to revoke Orochimaru's traitorous status at the beginning. But what if he betrays the village again for some reason in the future? Who can guarantee that such a thing will not happen?"

Jiraiya fell silent.

Can he guarantee it?

He didn't know what to do.

Just then, Fugaku spoke.

"What I want, to be precise, is Orochimaru's experimental data. This will be of great help to the development of the village, and its value is far beyond what the village has paid."

"If Orochimaru can return to the village, I think it will be worth it no matter how much I pay."

Mito Kado En frowned and was about to speak when he heard Fugaku continue, "According to the information Itachi sent back, Orochimaru took Kabuto to the Ryuchi Cave. I don't need to say anything more about what they did."

"Is this happening?"

"Yes. If you decide to win over Orochimaru, you can just give this task to Itachi."

The two advisors were silent.

Ok……

I'm a little moved.

It’s a gamble…

If the bet wins, Konoha will get two top talents in many fields, one of whom is in perfect Sage Mode.

They had witnessed with their own eyes how powerful Kabuto was in Sage Mode.

The entire ninja world saw it.

Having such a strong man in the village can also have a deterrent effect on some people, just like Kai.

But if you lose the bet...

The village spent money, effort and face to invite Orochimaru back. If Orochimaru defected again one day in the future, the village would probably become the laughing stock of the entire ninja world.

Mitomon En finally spoke: "Let's wait a little longer, in case Kabuto fails in his Sage Mode training... and Orochimaru may not agree to return to the village."

Koharu Utatane no longer expressed her opinions.

Seeing that the advisory elder agreed, Fugaku immediately made the decision.

"Okay! Then it's settled. Once Kabuto Yakushi successfully practices Sage Mode, I will immediately send Itachi to win him over. If Orochimaru defected from the village in the future, I will bear all the responsibilities. I will then step down as Hokage."

As soon as these words came out, everyone stared at him.

Mitomon En: "You said that yourself."

Utane Koharu tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Menyan, don't say anything yet. If Fugaku abdicates, who will be the next Hokage?"

Mizuto Menyan was stunned.

Uh……

Yup!

This is not the case now.

The times have changed.

The live broadcast today showed that Naruto was the savior, and everyone in the ninja world focused their attention on Konoha.

Tomorrow we will allow Obito to perform the Infinite Tsukuyomi, allow Madara to unilaterally beat up the Allied Ninja Forces and the Five Kage, allow Grand Tsutsuki to descend upon the Ninja World... and allow the savior's own son to be killed.

Apart from Sasuke's biological father, who else would be willing to take on such great pressure to become Hokage?

Sarutobi Hiruzen was horrified: "Fugaku, calm down."

Jiraiya patted the old man beside him on the shoulder and said, "If Orochimaru defected, the old man and I would share the responsibility with you."

Sarutobi Hiruzen:...

"Oh, yes. I will bear the responsibility with you and this traitor."

Mitomon En looked uncomfortable.

"Um... Fugaku... if something goes wrong, we will all shoulder the responsibility together. How about you hold on for a few more years, and when Naruto grows up, pass the position of Hokage to him?"

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. We can discuss everything after Kabuto finishes practicing Sage Mode."

After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Jiraiya.

"Ever since he saw Boruto being killed by Kawaki, Naruto has lost his former liveliness. He only gets happier when the Akatsuki people come to the village to see him, but after they leave, he goes back to his old self."

"Even if Iruka and I went to comfort him and try to untie his knot, it was of no use."

Jiraiya patted his chest, looking confident: "Leave this matter to me."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.

This is indeed a very troublesome matter for them, but if it is handed over to Jiraiya, there should be no problem.

"Old man, I have something very important to ask you. Come with me."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was puzzled: "What is so shameful?"

"Come over here, and you'll know."

Sarutobi Hiruzen followed him to a corner.

"There's no one here, you can ask."

Jiraiya asked in a very low voice: "Old man, tell me quickly, what is the rank of Xian in my ninja file?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked strange: "Is this your very important matter?"

Jiraiya nodded solemnly.

"very curious."

Sarutobi Hiruzen gestured a number with his hands.

Jiraiya immediately gasped, "So high? Is that true? Are you kidding me?"

"Why would I lie to you? Your teacher is the Hokage, with such a powerful background, so what's wrong with writing a higher number when registering you?"

Jiraiya was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes.

"You are closer to me than my own teacher."

"Call your biological teacher when you have time so that this old man can get to know him."
