Not long after, four figures appeared not far from Orochimaru's team. The leader was a burly man with white hair and two narrow eye shadows under his eyes.
"Hey, Orochimaru, your team has also completed the bell grabbing." The white-haired leader smiled.
Behind him, the blonde and smiling Minato Namikaze was particularly eye-catching, making the other two look dull in comparison.
The visitors were naturally Jiraiya and the three-person team he led.
After the bell grabbing training and seeing Minato Namikaze's strength, Jiraiya was more certain that Minato Namikaze was the son of prophecy mentioned by the big toad immortal. As for the other two disciples, he just picked them randomly because he had a little liking for them.
"Naoki, I didn't expect to meet again so soon." Minato Namikaze looked at Naoki Asakawa and smiled.
"Yes." Naoki Asakawa was also a little emotional. He had guessed that Jiraiya would accept Minato Namikaze as his disciple, but he didn't guess that Orochimaru would accept him as his disciple.
"Your team also succeeded?" Orochimaru asked in surprise.
He was indeed a little careless about Asakawa Naoki's tactics just now, so the bell was caught by Rope Tree. Could it be that Jiraiya was as careless as himself?
"Of course! I tell you, this time I can be regarded as picking up a treasure!" Jiraiya smiled happily.
As long as he follows what the Great Toad Sage said and trains Minato with all his strength, he may be able to bring peace to the entire ninja world in the future.
"Hehe." Orochimaru smiled without saying anything. He naturally knew that Jiraiya still believed in the so-called prophecy.
Compared with the prophecy of saving the world in the vague prophecy, Orochimaru believed in himself more.
"Let's wait for Tsunade here. Compared with my disciples, Tsunade's disciples will probably take some time to complete the training of snatching bells." Jiraiya smiled.
It can be seen that he is really happy to receive Minato Namikaze as a disciple.
"Jiraiya, my disciples are no worse than yours!"
While Jiraiya was speaking, four slender figures slowly walked out of the jungle, and the one leading them was a familiar blonde beauty, Tsunade.
However, Asakawa Naoki's eyes did not stay on Tsunade, but passed through Tsunade and saw two familiar figures behind her.
"Kushina, Mikoto, you are here too?" Asakawa Naoki said with some joy.
"I didn't expect that Naoki's teacher and Tsunade's teacher are friends." Uchiha Mikoto chuckled.
"Yes, Tsunade's teacher is super awesome." Uzumaki Kushina said happily.
Because the seniority is a bit confusing, Kushina usually calls Tsunade sister, but she must not call her sister when working, she must call her teacher.
Although they failed to worship under the same instructor, if their instructors are friends, there will be more opportunities to perform tasks together in the future.
Asakawa Naoki didn't expect Tsunade to accept both of them as apprentices. Uzumaki Kushina was fine, after all, she was of the same clan as Tsunade's grandmother Uzumaki Mito, and there was a little blood relationship.
What made him strange was that Tsunade accepted Uchiha Mikoto as her apprentice, after all, Tsunade was from the Senju clan, and Mikoto was from the Uchiha clan.
Even if the two clans jointly established Konoha Village, the blood feud could not be so easily wiped out.
Not to mention, Tsunade's grandfather Senju Hashirama died young because of Uchiha Madara.
The fundamental reason why Tsunade accepted Uchiha Mikoto as her apprentice was what her teacher Sarutobi Hiruzen said.
"Tsunade, I hope you can accept Uchiha Mikoto as your apprentice."
Although Tsunade didn't know that Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to use Uchiha Mikoto and Asakawa Naoki to divide and merge the Uchiha clan, she finally chose to believe in her teacher.
This is the real reason why Tsunade accepted Uchiha Mikoto.
"Since everyone is here, let's go eat first!" Jiraiya said with a smile.
Since the training mission has been achieved, the three instructors don't need to rush, so they slowly walked towards Konoha.
Behind the three instructors, the nine students got to know each other better during the chat.
Asakawa Naoki also knew Tsunade's remaining female apprentice, Kisaragi Seirei, and the two male apprentices Jiraiya accepted were Kobayashi Oishi and Inoue Shigeru.
When they just arrived at a barbecue restaurant, a ANBU ninja wearing black clothes and a cat-faced mask appeared in front of Jiraiya and the other two.
"Lord Orochimaru! Lord Hokage has something important to discuss!"
"Is Lord Hokage back?" Tsunade said with a smile. Although the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was very serious, he cared a lot about them.
But the old man has been so busy recently that he didn't even have time to host the graduation ceremony of the Ninja School. I don't know why he asked them to do that.
The Anbu ninja hesitated for a moment, but finally said:
“The situation has changed a bit, pleaseLord Orochimaru, please go to the Hokage's office first!"
"Has the situation changed?" Tsunade tasted some meaning, looked at the Anbu ninja and asked: "Can Jiraiya and I go together?"
"Of course, it's better for Lord Tsunade and Lord Jiraiya to go together." The Anbu ninja nodded.
"It seems that there is indeed something wrong." Orochimaru looked at the nine disciples behind him, took out a stack of money and handed it to Naoki Asakawa and said:
"You can go eat by yourselves today, we may have a mission over there."
"If nothing goes wrong, gather here tomorrow morning, and we will take you to start the mission."
"Okay, teacher!" Everyone said in unison.
"Let's go first."
After Orochimaru finished speaking, the three of them and the Anbu ninja disappeared from the spot, and the next moment they appeared a hundred meters away.
"The instant body technique is still fast. "Asakawa Naoki sighed in his heart, wondering when he could get the scroll of the instant body technique.
"Okay, let's go eat first." Asakawa Naoki walked into the barbecue restaurant with the money given by Orochimaru.
Although there were three teachers missing, the atmosphere of the nine people's dinner was still quite harmonious.
On the other side, Tsunade and the other two had arrived at the Hokage's office.
Opening the door, it was Sarutobi Hiruzen who was sitting in the Hokage's seat with a tired face.
At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was in his prime, and he usually looked very energetic, but recently he was a little exhausted because of too many things to deal with, and he looked a little haggard from the outside.
"Teacher, is there anything important that you called us here for?" Orochimaru asked.
"Of course," Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and said, "To make a long story short, I need you to quickly go to the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain!"
"Hanzang that guy is moving again? "Orochimaru asked curiously.
Except for the five major countries in the ninja world, the Rain Country is the strongest.
But the geographical location of the Rain Country is very awkward, sandwiched between the three major countries, so it can only defeat the three major countries if it wants to become strong.
And the current leader of the Rain Country, Hanzo of the Salamander, is a powerful and strong-willed ninja who is unwilling to submit to the three major countries, resulting in frequent changes in the Rain Country.
"That's right, and this time it may be serious." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.
"I have sent more people to the Wind Country and the Lightning Country to guard against it. The place where the war is most likely to break out can only rely on you!"
"I know, Lord Hokage!" The three said in unison.
