Zongman: The Infinite Journey Starting from Inuyasha

Jiraiya came to the Hokage's office and asked the third generation when he saw him:

"Third generation, what happened?"

The Sandaime smoked his pipe, "The Root is gone. Aside from Danzo, only those who were out on missions escaped. Everyone else is dead. The headquarters was wiped out."

"How is this possible?! Who did it?" Jiraiya asked in surprise.

Although he doesn't like Danzo and the people in the Root, they are all Konoha's people after all.

Moreover, he had only been drunk for one night, how could such a large group of people be wiped out? Even the base was wiped out.

"I don't know who did it, but Danzo sent people to capture Princess Ixuan of the Land of Waves, but she captured and killed them. Not long after the people dispersed, the Root was attacked, so it is basically certain that someone from the Land of Waves did it."

"…What is Danzo trying to do? Kidnapping a princess from another country. Is he trying to start a war?"

Jiraiya's anger was completely wiped out by Danzo's action.

He is used to plotting and scheming and has never been caught, so he has become rampant. He must be out of his mind to kidnap someone in her own home, and the person is a princess from another country.

The key point is that he has been caught now, which is embarrassing.

"And according to what you just said, you have no evidence to prove that it was done by the Wave Country."

Jiraiya wanted to laugh. It was almost certain that it was done by the Wave Country. There was no evidence at all. It was definitely useless.

That's Tsunade's child. I really want to go up and give him two big slaps.

"So what do you mean by calling me here, Third Generation?"

The Sandaime replied, "Danzo is useless, Tsunade and Orochimaru have joined the Land of Waves, I want you to stay in Konoha."

After Danzo left, he really needed someone to help him take charge of the situation. As for the people of the Ninja Clan, none of them was as worthy of his trust as Jiraiya.

Jiraiya was alone and he was his disciple, so he understood him much better than anyone else.

"Now in the entire Konoha, after I step down, you are the only one who is suitable to take over as Hokage."

"Hokage!"

Jiraiya chuckled. When he was young, he also dreamed of becoming a Hokage. It can be said that every young person dreams of becoming a Hokage when he grows up, but later he no longer wanted to do that.

Now that Orochimaru no longer pursues immortality like before, and Tsunade has found her own destination, he can put aside most of the things in his mind and go find the child of prophecy with peace of mind.

Jiraiya refused and said, "I won't stay. Hokage is not for me. Give the young people more opportunities."

In fact, he also felt guilty about the deaths of Minato and Kushina. If he had rushed back at that time...

He is also somewhat dissatisfied with the actions of the Third Generation before him. Since he passed the throne to Minato, he should not have continued to interfere in the affairs of Hokage. Even after the throne was passed on, he still had to stand up and make decisions. He hoped that this kind of thing would not happen again with the next generation.

He was still somewhat bothered by the deaths of Minato and Kushina, but it was difficult for him to investigate...

The Sandai stared at Jiraiya for a moment and sighed, "In that case, there is no need to hide some things from you.

During the Nine-Tails incident, Minato and Kushina's bodies were taken away from me and the others. We were all under an illusion and didn't even see them.

Moreover, the illusion was very strange, and everything we saw and felt was very real. If the illusion had not dissipated on its own, we would not even have noticed that we were under an illusion."

Thinking of the scene at that time, the Third Generation couldn't help but feel a chill on his back. Such people should not exist in the ninja world.

He had suspected the Uchiha clan, so he had no hesitation in exterminating the Uchiha clan.

But think about it, it shouldn't be them. Even if Uchiha's Sharingan has this ability, there is no such person yet, otherwise they would not have the opportunity to destroy Uchiha.

Jiraiya was shocked: "How is this possible!?"

He was well aware of the strength of the Third Generation. Even if Uchiha Madara was resurrected, it would not be the case that he was caught in an illusion without even seeing anyone, or even not realizing that he was caught in an illusion.

The Sandaime continued, “In addition to this incident, there was also the Uchiha clan extermination. All the bodies of their clan members disappeared. If it weren’t for the bloodstains left at the scene, one would have thought that their entire clan had defected.

And Uchiha Sasuke was also under the spell, which should be the same as mine. When we arrived, he still saw the corpses of his clansmen. I even suspected that Uchiha Itachi might have been under the spell as well."

The most recognized genjutsu bloodline limit in the ninja world is the Uchiha. They can be cast into genjutsu without anyone noticing. How strong must the person behind it be? It may even be that their entire village was cast into genjutsu. The third generation has always been upset about this matter.

"I now have some suspicions that it was Seshomaru. He showed up too suddenly, and I didn't really suspect him before, but now after meeting him, I feel that he is the most likely candidate."

Although he had not seen Seshomaru take action yet, the Third Hokage had a hunch.

If you think about it, you can guess something. He has a lot of people under him, and even Orochimaru is convinced by him. It can't be because of his good looks. His strength must be at least on the same level as Orochimaru.

But a teenager under his command is already close to the strength of the Kage. Under this standard, Sesshomaru can only be stronger, definitely surpassing the strength of the Kage. What about Six Paths?

Unfortunately, Orochimaru and Tsunade didn't tell him a word about Seshomaru.

Jiraiya frowned, thinking about what the Third Hokage had said.

He couldn't judge for the time being.

And he was very concerned about one thing, that the bodies of Minato and Kushina were taken away.

After a moment of silence, Jiraiya spoke:

"I'm going to go meet Naruto. I'll investigate these things later."

At least we need to recover the bodies of Minato and Kushina.

After leaving the Hokage Building, Jiraiya first came to the former site of the Root.

It was indeed completely destroyed. There are ninjutsu of this large scale, but few people can use them.

After stopping for a moment, Jiraiya arrived at Naruto's house.

"Hey! Who are you? Why are you barging into someone else's house?"

It was still morning and Naruto had just woken up. When he opened his eyes, he saw a creepy old man staring at him by the bed. He was so scared that he immediately jumped up from the bed, shrank into the corner, and pointed at Jiraiya in horror.

"Naruto, you've grown so big."

Jiraiya looked at Naruto with some emotion. So many years have passed.

Naruto was a thick-skinned man, and he immediately let down his guard when he heard Jiraiya calling his name: "How do you know my name? And who are you?"

Jiraiya looked around the room and said, "I know your father and mother. I was the one who gave you your name."

"Mom and Dad..."

Naruto was stunned. These two words were too far away from him. Since he could remember, no one had ever mentioned the meaning of these two words to him. He could only watch other families laughing and chatting in harmony and warmth in the corner.

If he is discovered, he will be treated as a fox demon and used as a negative example to be told to children, so that they will stay away from him.

But what is a fox demon?

Why is he a fox demon?

Why is he alone?

Why do others hate him?

Why do others have parents but he doesn’t?

Who are his parents?

Why don't they want me anymore?

Why……

"Naruto……"

Jiraiya felt a little uncomfortable looking at Naruto. He could guess something from Naruto's expression.

But he has no right to say anything about others.

Naruto asked, "Who are my parents?"

Jiraiya: "..."

Didn't the Third Hokage even tell Naruto this?

"Your parents are very powerful ninjas. They are heroes of Konoha. They love you very much..."

Naruto yelled, "If they are so powerful and heroes, why have I been the only one for all these years?"

Jiraiya: "..."

"Naruto, they love you very much... Come on, aren't you going to participate in the competition? I will teach you a powerful A-rank ninjutsu that your father invented."

Seeing that Naruto was unmoved, Jiraiya continued: "I'll wait for you at the training ground. If you don't come, I will leave Konoha tonight."

Jiraiya suddenly turned around and looked into the distance, only to see an Anbu from the Land of Waves standing on top of a telephone pole looking at this side. When he looked over, the man instantly left.

"Are the people from Wave Country targeting me or Naruto? Orochimaru, Tsunade, please don't do anything out of line."

"Let's go, remember to come over."

After Jiraiya left, Naruto slowly squatted in the corner...
