Naruto: Across Worlds

"Haha, Jiraiya, you kid didn't go see me as a teacher first when you came back."

Just as a hearty laugh sounded, Sarutobi's figure had already appeared in the courtyard of the Mito mansion. Jiraiya turned around and looked over, and found that Sarutobi was wearing the costume of the Third Hokage and walked in with a very majestic attitude. He looked like a tiger at his feet and felt very domineering.

"Sarutobi-sensei" Jiraiya stood up and said hello, and at the same time looked at Sarutobi seriously. After all, he hadn't seen this teacher for five years.

However, there is still some gap in his heart.

Seeing this, Sarutobi walked in quickly, saluted Mito first, then looked at Jiraiya and Tsunade, smiled and said: "Haha, if the ANBU people hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known about you kid. I'm back. You must have suffered outside for the past five years."

Hearing Sarutobi's kind question, Jiraiya also smiled, then shook his head and said: "It's nothing, five years is not a long time. Sarutobi-sensei seems to be more energetic. I must have spent these five years." Not bad”

After hearing this, the expression on Sarutobi's face did not change at all. Although he could hear the dissatisfaction in Jiraiya's words, as the third generation Hokage of Konoha, he thought that he still had this skill.

Sarutobi smiled, looked at Mito again and said: "Mito-sama, I don't know how you have considered the matter I told you last time. Nowadays, all the hidden villages are preparing to make moves. If you don't make a decision quickly, I'm afraid it will have a bad impact on the Uzushiogakure Village. Once Konoha is contained, I'm afraid there won't be time to take care of the Uzushiogakure Village."

Although Sarutobi's words didn't sound problematic at all, the people present were all elites among the ninjas and there were no fools, so they naturally understood the threat contained in these words.

Hearing this, Mito looked at Sarutobi, then looked at Jiraiya and smiled: "Sarutobi, I have given full authority to Jiraiya on this matter, as long as he agrees."

After the words fell, Jiraiya was surprised at first, but he quickly reacted and said: "Yes, Mr. Sarutobi, Grandma Mito is old and doesn't want to care about these things. Since she is willing to leave this matter to me, .Then I wonder what conditions Sarutobi-sensei offered."

Jiraiya said calmly, he knew very well that this was because Mito did not want to confront Sarutobi, which meant that the old man in front of him did not agree to the conditions.

Hearing this, Sarutobi was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted. He glanced at Mito who was sitting beside him, then turned to look at Jiraiya and said: "That's fine, this matter was still You mentioned it to me. Since Mito-sama has entrusted this matter to you, let’s just wait until you come to the Hokage’s office and we can talk about it.”

"It's his grandma's fault, this guy Sarutobi is cheating on me," Jiraiya said in his heart very unhappy.

Originally, only the two of them knew about this matter, but now Sarutobi actually said it in front of Mito and Tsunade. Isn't this sowing discord?

It's like saying: "Hey, Jiraiya, let's talk about this when the two of us are together. Anyway, we are all on the same front."

In an instant, Mito and Tsunade looked over, but their eyes indicated that you need to give us an explanation.

Seeing this, Sarutobi didn't realize anything at all. Instead, he looked at Mito with a smile and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave first. I'll wait until Jiraiya has rested and I'll talk to him."

With that said, he gave Jiraiya a smile and turned around to leave.

After Sarutobi left, Mito said in a deep voice: "Jiraiya, this matter has something to do with you."

Seeing Mito's somewhat unkind expression, he immediately understood that Sarutobi's plan to alienate him was successful.

I saw him smile bitterly, and then said with a smile: "Grandma Mito, please be patient, this is what happened.

"

With that said, Jiraiya told Mito and Tsunade about the introduction plan at that time, and the two of them understood it instantly, but they were a little bit critical of Sarutobi in their hearts.

"I understand, Jiraiya, I'd better leave this matter to you. I don't want the Uzumaki tribe to be controlled by others when they come here in the future."

"Don't worry, Grandma Mito, I have my own sense of discretion in this matter."

After comforting Mito, Jiraiya sneered in his heart. It seemed that in the past few years, his teacher Sarutobi's language skills had become more refined, and he could get himself into trouble with just two or three random sentences.

After the three of them stopped talking about these topics, the atmosphere became much more relaxed. After a while, Tsunade cooked a lot of sumptuous dishes herself, and the meal ended with everyone's laughter.

After eating, Jiraiya took Tsunade back to his hut. The two of them sat together and chatted very attached to each other. However, when Jiraiya looked at the Yin Seal diamond symbol on Tsunade's forehead, he smiled. : "Xiao Gang, it seems that you have worked very hard in the past five years, and you have even learned the Yin seal."

"Haha, there are still many things you don't know." Tsunade's silvery laughter rang out, which immediately stunned Jiraiya.

He couldn't help but hugged Tsunade and kissed her cherry red mouth. After a while, both of them were out of breath.

After the two of them sorted out their messed up clothes, Jiraiya got up and changed some clothes, then walked out and said with a smile: "Tsuna, I'll come back later and give you something. Now I'll go discuss it with Mr. Sarutobi." Let’s talk about the issue of Uzushio Hidden Village.”

"Well, you go ahead, I'll wait for you at home." Tsunade smiled softly.

Seeing this, Jiraiya hugged her, and then strode towards the Hokage Building.

The cold wind is howling, the snow is flying, and the goose feathers gradually fall down from the sky.

Walking in the snow, Jiraiya felt very emotional. Time is a great author. It not only changes many things, but also makes people's hearts more complicated.

Especially when he came back this time, he was deeply touched. Teacher Sarutobi, who had always been indecisive, would openly mess with him and leave as if nothing had happened, without any explanation.

My good friend Orochimaru has not seen each other for so long, so he must have completely stepped into that historical path.

Although he respected the outcome of the final incident, it inevitably made him feel a little empty.

Fortunately, only Tsunade missed him so much from beginning to end, giving him the last warmth in his cold heart.

"Love does not know its origin, but it goes deeper and deeper. The living can die, the dead can live, the living but not the dead, the dead but not resurrected, all this is not the end of love."

Looking up at the falling snow in the sky, Jiraiya unconsciously recited this poem.

He smiled bitterly, then shook his head and murmured to himself: "I hope this world will not let me down."

With that said, he strode towards the Hokage Building.

Not long after he left, a masked man walked out not far away. The man murmured to himself: "You don't know where love comes from, but it goes deeper. The living can die, the dead can live, and the living can live." Those who cannot die, and those who die and cannot be resurrected, are not the result of love."

After saying that, the man seemed to understand something, so he sneered and disappeared from the place with a teleportation technique.

Not long after, Jiraiya came to the Hokage Building, which he had not seen for a long time. Looking at the building that had not changed at all, he felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Just a few seconds after he stood, an ANBU ninja appeared directly in front of him and said respectfully: "Jiraiya-sama, the Third Hokage has been waiting for you for a long time, please come with me."
