The next day.

Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen flipped through Orochimaru's mission report and looked up at the person in front of him.

"Thank you for your hard work, Orochimaru. You have completed the mission well this time. The daimyo is very satisfied with your escort mission."

At this point, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but sigh secretly. A month ago, the daimyo of the Land of Fire didn't know if his brain was filled with water.

He suddenly wanted to make a secret visit?

He also said that he wanted to experience the suffering of the people and asked him to send some people to protect his safety?

When Sarutobi Hiruzen received this news, he was not feeling well.

Originally, he wrote a letter and asked someone to send it to the capital. Although the content of the letter was very long, the central idea was only one.

SB, why don't you stay in your daimyo's mansion and enjoy yourself? Why do you have to come out to die?

Originally, Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to dispel the daimyo's wild idea.

The result was that the purpose was not achieved, but the daimyo's rebellious psychology was aroused.

The current daimyo thinks that Sarutobi Hiruzen is the Hokage because he has only succeeded the daimyo for a few years and thinks he is young and easy to bully.

The daimyo didn't tolerate it either, and later wrote a letter to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and wrote a full 5 pages of letter paper.

But after summing it up, there is only one meaning.

That is.

Sarutobi old thief, I must go on this incognito visit, send someone to me quickly, give you three days, if I don't see the person, the military funds allocated to Konoha next year will be cut in half.

Obviously, this daimyo understands the Hokage and directly threatens with military funds.

Sarutobi Hiruzen thinks that this daimyo has no martial ethics.

But there is no way, for the sake of military funds, he can only admit defeat.

But the question is again, who should be sent?

Tsunade? She has to manage the hospital and has no time, pass.

Jiraiya? Too reckless, and also lustful, Sarutobi Hiruzen is afraid that he will anger the daimyo, and most importantly, he is not in Konoha, pass.

Very good, in the end, only Orochimaru is left.

But fortunately, Orochimaru is not like his two teammates, one is a gambler, the other is lustful and has no sense of responsibility.

Moreover, he is meticulous and attaches much more importance to the mission than his two teammates.

In addition, Orochimaru is strong enough. As long as he does not leave the Land of Fire, he can be said to have a sure success in protecting the Daimyo.

Then, he handed the escort mission to Orochimaru, and Orochimaru did not live up to his trust and completed the mission perfectly.

"This is what I should do."

Orochimaru nodded, and then changed the subject: "By the way, teacher, has Jiraiya not come back yet?"

Hearing Orochimaru mention Jiraiya, Sarutobi Hiruzen also had a headache. He didn't know what kind of magic potion Jiraiya, the disciple, was fed by the toad of Myoboku Mountain.

Half a year ago, he said he was going to find the child of destiny who would save the ninja world, and he would be away for another half a year.

If Jiraiya had not been his disciple, he would have been identified as a traitor long ago.

However, among the three disciples, Sarutobi Hiruzen still likes Jiraiya the most. Who makes Jiraiya like him?

"He should be back soon. It has been almost half a year since he left Konoha."

Orochimaru smiled contemptuously: "Hehe, Jiraiya is still so naive, and actually believes in that kind of illusory fate."

Sarutobi Hiruzen agrees with Orochimaru's statement. If there is really a child of destiny in this world, then when the war comes, do they just need to do nothing honestly and wait for the child of destiny to save them?

"Let him go. Anyway, the village doesn't need him for the time being. Let him go and look for it. In this way, he can give up as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Orochimaru felt a little indignant. This teacher is still like this. His doting on Jiraiya is really enviable.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru didn't have the heart to stay in this office any more.

"Teacher, I'm going back first."

"Well, you go back and rest first, you've worked hard on this mission,"

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't notice Orochimaru's subtle expression, waved his hand and agreed.

After leaving the Hokage Building, Orochimaru looked back.

There was a hint of inexplicable meaning in his eyes.

Then, after turning around, he left here.

…………

Ninja School, school gate.

Senju Nawaki called Uchiha Chiba: "Chiba, let's go, I'll go with you to find my sister."

"Don't worry, I'll go home first."

Uchiha Chiba shook his head.

Senju Nawaki couldn't figure out why Uchiha Chiba had to go home, he had clearly told him that he would go to the hospital today.

But he didn't think much about it. Anyway, he told Uchiha Chiba what Tsunade said, and he didn't care when Uchiha Chiba went."It's up to you, I'll go back first."

Hearing this, Uchiha Chiba nodded, then turned to look at Mikoto.

"Let's go, Sister Mikoto."

Walking on the way home, Uchiha Mikoto kept looking at Uchiha Chiba.

Uchiha Chiba had noticed this a long time ago: "Ask whatever you want to ask, don't keep looking at me."

"Then I'll ask." Uchiha Mikoto said carefully.

"Well, ask,"

Uchiha Chiba nodded indifferently.

Uchiha Mikoto thought for a while, then said: "Why did Nawaki ask you to go to the hospital, are you feeling unwell, Chiba?"

It's no wonder she thought too much, really who would go to the hospital if she was a good person, although her aunt Uchiha Genka worked in the hospital, but she didn't know that Uchiha Chiba often went to the hospital because he delivered lunch boxes to Uchiha Genka.

In her cognition, people only go to the hospital when they are sick.

Uchiha Chiba thought about it. Anyway, it won't be long before the whole Konoha will know that she went to Tsunade to learn.

And there is nothing to hide.

"No, I'm in good health. I went to the hospital to see Tsunade-sama."

Uchiha Chiba still concealed his brother-sister relationship with Tsunade.

Uchiha Mikoto is a Uchiha after all, and Uchiha Chiba's grandfather is the elder of the dove faction. If he knew about this.

He didn't know what would happen specifically, but he thought it would not be a good thing.

Once his grandfather knew about it, it would only be a matter of time before the whole Uchiha knew about it.

At that time, I don't know what stupid actions Uchiha Setsuna, the elder of the hawk faction, would do.

You should know that Uchiha Setsuna, the elder of the hawk faction, was a ruthless man who had staged a coup during the reign of the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama.

Although he was imprisoned after his failure, he was released for some unknown reason.

But Uchiha Chiba didn't want to cause any more trouble now.

Now his strength has not reached the level where he can ignore everyone, and he still needs time to develop.

Uchiha Mikoto was even more curious. If this cousin went to her aunt, she could understand it, but she couldn't figure out the reason for going to the hospital to find Tsunade.

"What do you want to do with Tsunade, Chiba?"

"To learn the Palm Fairy Technique, what else can it be for." Uchiha Chiba spread his hands and said as a matter of course.

"But doesn't Aunt Genka know it too? Why do you go to Tsunade instead of looking for it?"

Uchiha Chiba knew that someone would ask this question sooner or later, but he also thought of a reason.

"It's different. Although my mother knows it, she is not as good as Tsunade. And I said that Tsunade is the most powerful medical ninja in the Land of Fire. Do you have any objection?"

Uchiha Mikoto admitted this, and then thought about it. What Uchiha Chiba said made sense. Since he wanted to learn, he must find the most powerful person to learn.
