The man standing at the top of the ninja world

Hearing the knock on the door, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was calming down his inner excitement, paused for a moment, then opened his eyes, reached out and turned over the battle report on the table, and then said in a deep voice: "Please come in."

The door was gently pushed open, and three figures, three large and one small, walked into the Hokage's office.

"Orochimaru, it's you, you're back." Seeing Orochimaru walking at the front, Sarutobi Hiruzen was startled. The next second, he seemed to suddenly remember something, his eyes glanced back and forth, and finally His eyes were locked on the face of Nagato who walked in last.

"Hokage-sama, the mission was completed smoothly." The three ninjas lowered their heads slightly and said.

"Orochimaru." The Third Hokage looked at Nagato. Although he tried his best to suppress it, there was still an imperceptible tremor in his voice.

Orochimaru nodded knowingly and put his hand on Nagato's shoulder, "Lord Hokage, this child is the orphan of the Uzumaki clan I told you, Uzumaki Nagato."

As he spoke, he patted Nagato's shoulder and said, "Nagato-kun, pull the hair in front of your forehead a little."

"Pull your hair away, why?"

"Just do it, you will understand later."

"Oh."

Nagato obediently stretched out his hand and pulled away the bangs that were covering his eyes. He looked at the Third Hokage with a slightly confused look on his face.

This doubt was naturally faked by Nagato. Of course he would not understand why Orochimaru asked him to pull his hair away. This was to let the Third Hokage confirm his Samsara Eye.

But it stands to reason that Nagato, who is only seven years old, would never know that his eyes are reincarnation eyes, so he would ask questions knowingly to avoid making the Third Hokage and the Sannin suspicious of him.

The Third Hokage looked at Nagato's dark purple eyes with ripples, and felt that his breathing was a little heavier. He had repeatedly read a lot of information about the Rinnegan in the past few days, and he was already familiar with the appearance of the Rinnegan. It can be seen that Nagato's eyes are exactly the same as the eyes of the Six Paths Sage recorded in the books.

Although I had been mentally prepared for this before, after all, hearing is believing and seeing is believing. I saw with my own eyes that the Samsara Eye really exists, and its owner was brought back to Konoha, and will become Konoha's in the future. Ninja, the Third Hokage's emotions that had just calmed down were uncontrollably surging.

These are the eyes that only the legendary creation god Six Paths Immortal has.

Even if the Samsara Eye does not really have the power to create and destroy the world as in the legend, as long as it has half, no, as long as one-tenth, then absolutely no ninja can compete.

When this child grows up, he will become an invincible ninja like the first Hokage, and Konoha will also become the same overlord of the ninja world as when the first Hokage was alive. No country will dare to take the initiative to challenge Konoha like now. Ye started the war.

In just a few seconds, countless thoughts flashed through the mind of the Third Hokage. After he came back to his senses, he noticed the uneasiness on Nagato's face.

"Nagato, you don't have to be afraid." The Third Hokage showed a kind smile on his face and said gently: "Don't worry, the Kingdom of Whirlpool and Konoha have always been the closest allies. The wife of the first Hokage who founded Konoha is you. Princess Uzumaki of the Land of Uzumaki, Uzumaki Mito, Konoha will be your home from now on."

It has to be said that the Third Hokage's affinity is definitely at the top level. Although due to his age, his current image is not as amiable as when he was older, it is still difficult not to make people like and trust him.

Even if Nagato's real age is already in his 20s, this is no exception.

In comparison, Danzo is much worse. For ordinary children, let alone trusting him, it would be good if they are not scared to tears by him.

"Thank you, Hokage-sama, I understand." The uneasy look on Nagato's face disappeared, but his voice was still a little reserved.

The Third Hokage didn't take this seriously. It was normal for a child of a few years old to be a little nervous when he suddenly came to a completely unfamiliar country.

He stood up and walked to Nagato, touched Nagato's head, and asked: "Nagato, are you willing to go with me to see Mito-sama? Mito-sama, she also knows about you and treats you." This kin cares deeply."

Nagato nodded, "Yes."

The Third Hokage smiled, turned to look at the Sannin, thought for a few seconds, and said: "Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Tsunade, you three have worked hard this time, I will give you a week off, this one You don’t have to do any tasks during the week, just have a good rest for a few days.”

"Yes."

Nagato followed the Third Hokage out of the Hokage's office building and walked towards the Senju Clan's headquarters.

In order to take care of Nagato's speed, the Third Hokage walked slowly. Along the way, villagers from Konoha kept coming to greet him, and the Third Hokage responded one by one. He looked like an ordinary middle-aged uncle with a little bit of Hokage. There is no majesty.

Nagato looked at this scene and thought thoughtfully. This affinity for harmonious coexistence with the people may be one of the reasons why Senju Tobirama chose the Third Hokage in the first place. After all, this was the reason why even he and his brother Nothing they can do.

Konoha Village is called a village, but it is actually far more than a small village. There are tens of thousands of ninjas in Konoha alone, and the number of ordinary people is several times that of ninjas. It is actually a large City.

In terms of prosperity, even the capital of the Fire Country cannot compare to Konoha, and the Senju Clan's residence is on the fringes like the Uchiha Clan, so it took the two of them almost half an hour to reach their destination.

Two ninjas stood outside the gate of the Senju clan. Seeing the arrival of the Third Hokage, the two bowed their heads and said respectfully: "Hokage-sama."

The Third Hokage asked: "Is Mito-sama at home now?"

These two ninjas appear to be gatekeepers for the Senju clan. In fact, they are ANBU ninjas directly under the Third Hokage, responsible for protecting the safety of the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki Uzumaki Mito.

In addition to the two at the door, there are more than a dozen ANBU ninjas inside the station responsible for the security of various locations.

Although the strength of these ANBU ninjas, even if they are all combined, cannot compare to Uzumaki Mito who can freely use the power of the nine tails, Uzumaki Mito is old after all. In order to take care of her life and prevent accidents, someone must Just watch.

An ANBU replied: "Yes, Mito-sama didn't go out all day today."

"I understand." The Third Hokage lowered his head and looked at Nagato, "Nagato, let's go in."

"Ah."

The two of them had just entered the door, and before they had taken a few steps, they heard an anxious voice coming from the corner on the right.

"Oops, I'm going to be late."

Before the two of them could react, a young figure suddenly rushed out from the corner and bumped into Nagato with a clang.
