Undercurrent of Konoha

Hot spring pool.

Heiji was quietly soaking in the warm water, with a spotless pure white towel on his forehead and covering most of his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep.

Orochimaru...the reincarnation of the dirty land...Haku...installed an internal agent...

At this moment, Heiji's mind was spinning with countless thoughts.

He is analyzing, judging, weighing the pros and cons...

To this end, he has calculated no less than 200 options in his mind, as well as the possible consequences.

However, most of the consequences are not what Heiji wants to see.

Orochimaru is like an extremely venomous snake. The venom is valuable and coveted, but once it is accidentally contaminated, there is a huge risk of death from poisoning.

Next, Orochimaru should take action against the fourth generation Kazekage of Sunagakure Village...

The most important part of his plan to collapse Konoha is to collude with Sunagakure Village.

However, the fourth generation Kazekage never expected that Orochimaru would suddenly attack his partner.

Because, for Orochimaru, the fourth generation Kazekage's combat power is not as useful as his identity.

Only by killing the Kazekage and taking over the identity of the Kazekage and sitting next to the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen can Orochimaru complete the entire plan in a true sense.

"What is Orochimaru's deep-seated purpose in tempting me to be his spy..."

Heiji stroked the black ring on the little finger of his left hand, but felt that there was a fog in his mind, and he still couldn't figure it out, let alone a solution.

"Ah——! Old pervert——!"

"Get away—! Get out of here!"

Pfft-pass!

A huge water splash bloomed in front of Heiji, with water droplets splashing everywhere.

Heiji picked up the white towel on his forehead, bowed slightly, and then a pure smile appeared on his face.

"Haha! It's Heiji! You're also taking a bath here—"

She was wrapped in a light yellow bath towel, and her hedgehog-like white hair still stood proudly upward even though it was soaked in water.

Jiraiya touched the back of his head, his face slightly flushed. He didn't know whether it was from the hot springs or some other reason.

"Jiraiya-sama...I'm glad to see you again..."

The moment he saw Jiraiya, Heiji's mood suddenly brightened. With such a powerful figure guarding Konoha Village, many unexpected changes would occur during the Chunin Examination.

These changes are all reassuring and practical.

Orochimaru's plan to collapse Konoha will also be greatly hindered.

Boom-!

The door of the men's bathhouse was suddenly violently pushed open, and a large group of aggressive young women and mature women wrapped in bath towels came in, holding various weapons in their hands.

Broom... wooden stick... toilet scraper...

Of course, some came with bare hands.

Among these furious women, there are many highly skilled female ninjas.

Each of them looked fierce, as if they were going to eat alive any pervert who dared to spy on them.

"Heiji——Run away..."

Jiraiya grabbed Heiji, and the two of them ran away wrapped in bath towels.

Heiji was in a state of complete confusion from beginning to end. Speaking of which, he had not done any bad behavior of peeping, so why did he run away together...

But even if he doesn’t want to run away, he can’t!

Jiraiya's right hand is like an iron hoop, unable to be loosened at all, and there is no room for struggle...

"Am I right? Was it Heiji who escaped just now?"

"Boys... will always grow up..."

"The old man next to Heiji seems to be a habitual offender... Following such an old pervert, he will naturally be led astray..."

……

A group of women wrapped in bath towels chased Jiraiya and Heiji, an old man and a young man. The battle alarmed half of the Leaf Village.

Heiji's fair little face was already swollen red, and now, he could no longer defend himself.

The two of them ran all the way to the small river outside the village, and finally got rid of the group of women who were stunned by anger.

"Hehe... I finally got away... I just want to draw material for my novel, and inspire some inspiration... The women of Konoha Village... are really becoming more and more domineering - just like the evil Tsunade... It’s like the mother-in-law is possessed..."

Heiji blushed and put on his clothes one by one, complaining in his heart...

After such a farce just now, Heiji has been hurt badly by Jiraiya, and he doesn't know if he will have the courage to continue returning to the village later.

Jiraiya watched in surprise as Heiji slowly put on his clothes and then formed seals with his hands.

"Bam—!"

After a burst of smoke, Jiraiya's clothes were neatly dressed.

"Heiji, when you were running just now, your taijutsu was pretty good. Why do you still dress like a civilian? Just use the most basic ninjutsu..."

Putting on the last shoe on his feet, Heiji smiled awkwardly and said: "Jiraiya-sama, the chakra in my body will not react with the seals... Therefore, I only know taijutsu... "

"Is the seal invalid... This is a bit difficult..."

Jiraiya scratched the back of his head and frowned slightly, as if he was deep in thought.

After pondering for a moment, Jiraiya asked curiously: "You are so good at taijutsu, how do you control the flow of chakra?"

"Thoughts...as long as I have something in my mind...chakra will flow to the corresponding location in my body along with my thoughts."

Jiraiya clicked his tongue, looking as if he was surprised. After a moment of silence, he murmured to himself: "That ninjutsu... maybe let him try it..."

"Heiji, please wait here for a while... I will go back to the village to buy some things... and I will teach you a powerful ninjutsu when I come back..."

Jiraiya swayed and walked towards the village as if nothing had happened.

Heiji stood there, stunned.

By the way, I was chased for several streets by a group of women wearing a bath towel, and now I can return to the village as if nothing happened?

Jiraiya-sama's face...oh no...courage is really admirable...

Heiji walked to a big tree, leaned against the trunk and sat down slowly.

The clear river in front of us is flowing happily, and we can see many small fish and shrimps jumping happily in the water.

In such a quiet and beautiful environment, Heiji's mood could never calm down.

It wasn't because of the embarrassment that he had just been wronged and chased all over the street by a bunch of women.

He was really curious, what kind of ninjutsu would Jiraiya teach him, one that didn't require seals and was very powerful?

Unknowingly, the sun in the sky was gradually setting towards the west, but Jiraiya was still nowhere to be seen.

This Jiraiya-sama... is really unreliable...
