Naruto: The rope tree is cold, can you save it?

"Sarutobi-sensei, I, Konoha, obviously have the upper hand, how can you just hand over Loess? You are too weak!"

"Orochimaru, I am the Hokage!"

"Sarutobi-sensei, you will regret it!"

Bang!

Because Hiruzen Sarutobi had reached an agreement with Onoki privately, Iwagakure gave up his revenge on Konoha after handing over the loess.

……

Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and nothing happened in the ninja world or Konoha.

Without Danzo Shimura, the atmosphere in Konoha Village has become a lot more harmonious.

It's not that Orochimaru has a bottom line, the main reason is that he is not interested in power, but only uses it as one of his methods to get closer to the truth. Naturally, he will not be as extreme as Shimura Danzo.

Root base, in the laboratory.

Chiba and Orochimaru were concentrating on a new iteration of cell culture, when a child with a bare bottom suddenly rushed in, startling the two of them.

"Yamato, you didn't see that your Uncle Snake and I were busy, go out and play!"

"Oh……"

Chiba scolded him angrily, and the little guy curled his lips a little aggrievedly, left the laboratory obediently, and closed the door for the two of them.

"Hiss, Chiba-kun, you are the only one who can control this child. Speaking of which, why do you insist on naming him Yamato?"

"Ah this?"

Chiba pondered for a long time, not knowing how to explain to Orochimaru that he was called Yamato because Yamato was called Yamato.

In the original work, Yamato was used by Shimura Danzo as a tool to realize his ambitions since he was a child. He had no human emotions until he met Yukimi and Kakashi.

But now, because of Chiba's existence, Yamato has a happy childhood. He is as naughty as Obito and doesn't listen to anyone except Chiba, which makes Chiba very upset.

"Hiss, Chiba-kun, it won't take long before you and I can successfully transplant Senju Hashirama's cells."

Seeing that Chiba didn't reply, Orochimaru didn't take it seriously. He looked at the cell culture bottle in his hand, with a fanatical look on his face.

Absorbing the biological knowledge from Blue Star, and with the secret support of the entire root and Hiruzen Sarutobi, Orochimaru's research progress is extremely fast, I don't know how many times faster than in the original work.

"Yeah, I'm really looking forward to it."

Chiba licked the corners of his lips, and his eyes shone with admiration. He had been yearning for Hashirama's crotch-unbuttoning technique for a long time.

With the bloodline of Senju Uchiha, the heart of Wood Release, and a massive amount of chakra, it shouldn't be too much for him to master several large-scale Wood Release moves after transplanting Hashirama cells, right?

"Lord Orochimaru, Lord Chiba, according to the intelligence, Jiraiya is about to arrive in Konoha, and he is bringing three children with him."

Just as Orochimaru and Chiba were working hard, a report from the root ninja suddenly came from outside the door, and Chiba raised her head in surprise.

"Three children, could it be...?!"

Swish.

The next moment, Chiba's figure disappeared directly from the laboratory and appeared next to the Flying Thunder God-style paper hidden at the gate of Konoha.

Now as one of the powerful people in Konoha, Chiba uses forbidden techniques such as the Mutual Detonation Talisman and Flying Thunder God, and no longer has to carry anyone on his back.

"Hahahaha, Chiba, long time no see, do you miss me?"

Not long after, a familiar figure appeared in Chiba's field of vision. He gave Chiba a hug without any explanation and laughed heartily.

"What, you kid came here specially to greet me? Look, look who I brought back."

The person who came was none other than Jiraiya. He smiled and patted Chiba on the shoulder, then stepped aside, revealing the three little guys behind him.

"Brother Chiba, Xiaonan misses you so much!"

"Hello, Brother Chiba."

"Brother Qianye, I heard that you also worshiped the lustful immortal as your teacher. From now on, we will do our own thing. I will call you brother, and you can call me senior brother."

Chiba picked up the lively Konan, shy Nagato, and Yahiko who needed a beating. Chiba picked up the three excited little guys and spun them around twice in the air.

"We haven't seen each other for so long. You three have grown a lot... Yahiko, you brat is still so naughty!"

After putting down the three little ones, Chiba rubbed the heads of Konan and Nagato, and then gave Yahiko a slap on the head with his expectant eyes.

Chiba and Jiraiya accompanied the three little guys to the bustling area of ​​Konoha. The streets were very lively with people coming and going, which was in sharp contrast to the depression of the Land of Rain.

The three little guys curiously looked at the lively scene around them, looking here and there. Everything was so novel.

"Jiraiya-sama, why did you bring the three of them back?"

Chiba gave the three little guys some money and let them purchase freely, then looked at Jiraiya beside him and asked with mixed joy.

Needless to say, after bringing Nagato back to Konoha, there is a 100% chance that he will attract the gaze of an indescribable existence!

"Uchiha Madara has noticed me before, and now Nagato has drawn his attention to Konoha again. Maybe he will focus on me again." Chiba thought to himself.

"Haha, I went to the Country of Rain to accompany the little ones for a while. When I left, they shouted that they had to see you, otherwise they wouldn't let me leave."

Jiraiya smiled and said: "There is no other way, I just want to bring them over and let them stay with you for a while."

In the past, Jiraiya was unwilling to take the three people back to Konoha, firstly because the three of them had no good impression of Konoha, and secondly because there was Shimura Danzo in Konoha, and Nagato might be in danger.

But now that Shimura Danzo has been eliminated, the three of them have offered to come to Konoha to visit, so Jiraiya naturally has no reason to refuse.

"That's it."

Chiba nodded, and then asked casually: "Jiraiya-sama, do you mean that you are leaving soon, instead of staying in Konoha for a while?"

"Well, it's because I made a promise with someone before that I'm going to... ahem, I'm going to go to a certain place for an appointment. I don't want to break my promise."

Halfway through his words, Jiraiya suddenly coughed twice and spoke vaguely.

"Your eyes are wandering and your hands and feet are unnatural. Master Jiraiya, are you hiding something from me?"

"No, no, how is that possible, hahahaha!"

Chiba stared at the guilty Jiraiya suspiciously for a long time. After a while, a certain plot suddenly flashed through his mind.

"The scheming frog keeps touching your belly!"

As if being electrocuted, Chiba pushed up her non-existent glasses and said, "Jiraiya-sama, the place you want to go to is not Nadeshiko Village, right?!"

Jiraiya: (owo?)!

"Chiba, you, you have heard of Nadeshiko Village?" Jiraiya was shocked.

"Humph, now I am the leader of the group. How could I not have heard of this ninja village composed entirely of women?"

Qianye said proudly: "I heard that as long as you are targeted by a woman in the village, you must have a fight with the woman. No matter you win or lose, you can get a wife. Isn't this the bet you mentioned?"

"Jiraiya-sama, why did you suddenly become enlightened?"

"me……"

Faced with the teasing from his apprentice, Jiraiya blushed and hesitated for a long time, unable to speak.

"It's because of you, Chiba, because I have seen the hope of peace in the ninja world in you."

Looking at the snickering apprentice, Jiraiya thought silently in his mind.

Chiba has fulfilled almost all of his imaginations about the prophecy's son, so he no longer needs to run around for a "mission" like in the original work, and base his entire life on the prophecy of the Big Toad Immortal.

When he "parted ways" with Tsunade on the battlefield, he realized that he and Tsunade were not suitable, and let go of his childhood obsession.

Today, Jiraiya is in an extremely relaxed state, and when he freely travels around the ninja world, he meets a woman whose figure and appearance are not inferior to those of Tsunade, then he doesn't...

Jiraiya left as if running away, leaving the three little guys and the important task of saving the ninja world to Chiba, and rushed towards a new beginning alone.

"Seeing you happy makes me feel relieved."

Looking at Jiraiya's hurried away figure, Chiba's lips slightly raised, thinking sincerely.

"Brother Chiba, where should we stay for three nights?"

At this time, the three little guys ran back with large bags and small bags of things. They were used to Jiraiya suddenly leaving without saying goodbye, without even asking.

"Haha, that guy in the rope tree just bought a new house. You can live with me in his house during this period." Qianye said with a smile.

"Brother Chiba, let's play the werewolf game you taught us before you left last time tonight!" Xiaonan suggested.

"Well, then I may have to go back later. I just made an appointment with someone to practice martial arts tonight. It may take an hour..."

After Qianye thought for a while, he reluctantly said: "Forget it, about half an hour!"

Chiba took the three little guys to the new home of the rope tree.

"Hey, this is really troublesome. Why don't you take them to your home?"

Shengshu said he was disgusted, but his body was very honest and helped the three little ones clean up the room. He could hardly close his mouth with a smile.

He has always liked liveliness, but now that these three little guys are accompanying him, he can also have some fun when Qianye is away.

……

Half a month later, Chiba was urgently summoned to the Hokage's office.

As soon as he entered the door, Chiba made a prediction in advance and said tentatively: "Sandaime-sama, if you suddenly called me over, could it be that there is something strange happening at Kirigakure?"

"Oh?" Sarutobi Hiruzen's gloomy expression softened somewhat, and he looked at Chiba and said, "Have you received the news?"

"Ah this..."

Qianye's heart suddenly skipped a beat. If nothing else happened, this should be aimed at him, right?
