Swing the knife from the leaves

As the night passed, dew flowed on the leaves.

After spending a lot of effort to persuade Teacher Ming, Yahiko breathed a sigh of relief. If you can fight in a group, don't lead him alone.

He raised his head and looked forward. Not far away was the location of Yunyin Village, where mountains gathered.

Standing on a high mountain, Yahiko squinted at the village opposite. Next to him was Ming, who had regained his composure, but those eyes made people look cold. Next to Ming, a fat man in elegant clothes was sleeping there. , Ming used his illusion killer move, reincarnation, on him.

"Let's go!"

A calm voice came out, and the Akatsuki captains behind them looked excited.

The leader jumped forward, and the followers behind him were like rain. Facing the Kumogakure Village at his feet, Yahiko shouted:

"The Akatsuki organization was invited to visit by the Fourth Raikage!"

In an instant, a wall of light blocked the visitor, and alarms rang out in Yunyin Village.

At this moment, no one knew about Akatsuki's attack on Kumo Ninja Village, and Namikaze Minato was still having cordial and friendly conversations with his fellow disciples.

In Konoha's Training Ground No. [-], Jiraiya looked at the bald forest in front of him and sighed.

"Well, I know that Minato is very dissatisfied with me joining Akatsuki. If I don't come, these two people won't be able to fight."

Even if he half-joined Akatsuki's actions, Minato found it difficult to accept that his mentor was betraying the village, but Minato had no choice. He also knew the teacher's ideals, and it was something that made Minato happy that the Land of Rain could be changed, but the teacher was gone. , so that he can feel good.

Minato knew about Orochimaru-senpai's problem, and although it was a pity, if he insisted on trying to persuade him to stay, it would be fruitless. After all, even his own teacher Jiraiya didn't persuade him to do so.But Jiraiya really made Minato a little angry. The third generation gave the teacher a task to investigate Akatsuki's situation. As a result, after investigating, his teacher joined Akatsuki, and the people sent to investigate disappeared.

Although Mr. Jiraiya said that whenever Konoha is in trouble, he will rush back as soon as possible, but Nagato next to him suddenly said that the teacher's business is Akatsuki's business. As long as Mr. Jiraiya comes, Akatsuki will definitely come back to help. .

This sentence directly frustrates Minato who still wants to talk properly. What is Jiraiya’s teacher’s business is Akatsuki’s business. Jiraiya’s business is the Sannin of Konoha and the disciple of the Third Hokage of Konoha. Gen Hong Miao Zheng's Konoha people, what do you know about our Konoha affairs?

In the middle of the conversation, the two people directly set the conditions. As long as the other party wins the remaining conditions, that party will take the initiative in the remaining areas and obtain maximum benefits.

So there was the current scene. The two were fighting, surrounded by Konoha's ANBU. Although they couldn't intervene, watching the fight at this level was of great benefit to them.

Jiraiya, who was in his prime, had reached the peak of his strength and was one of the few strong men in the ninja world. Only he and the Third Hokage could see the fighting situation in front of him.

"Jiraiya, you really created a problem for Minato, hahaha! But the level of your disciple is almost catching up with mine."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the equally divided battle between the two sides and smiled at Jiraiya beside him.

"Teacher, I'm sorry, I have put the village in trouble because of my identity."

After hearing these words, Hiruzen Sarutobi turned his pipe away and said to Jiraiya with a sigh on his face:

"Jiraiya, you don't have to be sorry for Akatsuki's situation. Now think about it, Akatsuki's appearance has been of great help to Konoha. Also, Jiraiya, the disciples you handed over are really good. , Minato has already done what I can’t do.”

Jiraiya's identity is the biggest buffer for mediation between Akatsuki and Konoha. He is the teacher of the fourth Hokage of Konoha and is also the teacher of the three leaders of Akatsuki. When there is no fundamental conflict of interest between Akatsuki and Konoha, he will only deal with Two large organizations have a role in promoting peace.

In terms of military status, the Kingdom of Rain can directly prevent the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Earth from attacking, and block the pressure from the two northwest countries for Konoha, just like the Uzumaki Village blocked the pressure from the Kirigakure Village.Will two countries with a basis for cooperation start a fight? The possibility is too low.

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen retreated, he still had a clear view of the situation in the ninja world, and he saw the situation of the ninja world not now, but decades later. The current ninja world has powerful power to suppress everything. , but in Sarutobi Hiruzen's experience, even those as powerful as the first generation, and the demonic Uchiha Madara could not withstand the erosion of time and disappeared into history.

No one will remain strong forever, so when the lifespan of that strong man is exhausted, or when his power no longer wants to be as powerful as it is now, then the disputes in the ninja world will come again.At that time, with Akatsuki as an ally, Konoha's situation will not be as passive as it is now.

Three battles at a time, taking turns with four great ninja villages. Such experiences made Sarutobi Hiruzen really uncomfortable. The situation in which the wolves of Konoha looked around had to change.

Jiraiya looked at the teacher's smile, feeling a little helpless in his heart. He could guess a lot of the teacher's thoughts, but the teacher didn't know Xiao, and he wouldn't know what he was going to do.The two of them were standing side by side and talking easily, but there seemed to be a barrier between them, dividing their thoughts on both sides.

The two people standing warmly on the ground seemed to be getting farther and farther away, while the two people fighting in the distance seemed to be getting closer and closer.

At the beginning of World War II, the Third Hokage seemed to be drifting away from Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade.

"Haha, Jiraiya, you don't have to say anything to me, an old man. I have handed over all the power to Minato. From now on, just listen to Minato. After all, you are still a member of Konoha. If there is If you have time, come and sit at my house, your wife has always cared about you."

"I see, teacher."

As the two of them talked, the battle in front of them was coming to an end.

Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique, coupled with the powerful Rasengan Technique, allowed him to easily take the initiative in the battle. His rich combat experience is indeed not comparable to Nagato.

But Nagato used the power of the Rinnegan. Although a lot of ninjutsu couldn't hit Minato, he had enough chakra to defend himself within five meters, which happened to be Minato's difficult opponent. .

There is no point in continuing the fight like this. The two simply communicate while fighting, which one is more distracted. The flaws exposed are big enough for the other party to directly determine the outcome of the battle in one fell swoop.

Therefore, the expressions of the two people changed quite wonderfully. Nagato gradually became excited, but Minato's expression gradually became complicated.

"call"

Minato was holding a kunai, and the sharp blade was placed across Nagato's neck. The outcome seemed to be obvious now.

"Brother Minato, you win."

Nagato smiled, losing the battle but looking like a winner, while Minato, with the kunai behind him, had a complicated look on his face.
