The decisive words reached his ears, and Jiraiya's lips trembled.

"Sarutobi-sensei!"

"Do you think I would betray Konoha?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Jiraiya's somewhat disappointed eyes, his heart twitched slightly, and his tone softened a little.

"Teacher, I believe you can't!"

"But that kid is different from you, he."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head slightly,

"I am his teacher and I know him!"

"It's like, you know me."

"Nagato will not take the initiative to do anything to harm Konoha, I promise!"

Jiraiya interrupted Sarutobi Hiruzen's words with a pleading tone.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't know that this plea was not for Nagato.

Jiraiya has always known how much malice that boy Nezuki held against the current high-level officials of Konoha.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Naoki is given a legitimate opportunity to take action, he will probably not let any of the older Konoha executives such as Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo off his hands.

Sarutobi Hiruzen heard a trace of disappointment in his eyes when he heard his disciple's plea.

He turned his back and stopped looking at Jiraiya.

"Jiraiya!"

"Maybe this is a difficult choice for you, but as a Hokage, the teacher cannot allow a genius ninja from an enemy country to grow up."

"If you don't want to hear that he died on the way back to the Land of Rain, then do your best to keep that child in Konoha!"

Jiraiya looked at the back of Sarutobi Hiruzen as if looking at a strange politician, and could no longer find a trace of the loving elder he had in the past.

Lowering his head a little disappointed, Jiraiya turned and walked towards the door.

"Teacher, I will talk to Nagato."

"Before this, I hope the teacher can promise me not to do any unnecessary actions behind my back."

"if you can."

Jiraiya paused.

"Please consider that Nagato and the others are my disciples and don't go too far."

"I am leaving."

Jiraiya took a deep look at Sarutobi Hiruzen's back, opened the door and walked out.

There was a dead silence in the Hokage's office.

After a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.

"Jiraiya, are you going to become farther and farther away from me like Orochimaru and Tsunade?"

"Everything the teacher does is for Konoha."

"Why? Why don't even you understand me?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned back to the Hokage's seat and sat down. He touched the Hokage's hat on the table with his hand, and his expression gradually became gloomy.

"Go find Danzo!"

The ANBU ninja who was responsible for protecting Naruto's safety outside the window agreed and followed the order.

"Since Jiraiya doesn't want to get involved in this matter, then I can't ruin the relationship with Jiraiya in vain."

"Leave this matter to Gen!"

The underground base of the roots.

Danzo searched Beiliu's laboratory inside and out, but could not find Beiliu, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Today's chuunin assessment has ended. Why hasn't Beiliu returned yet?"

Danzo returned to his office with a somewhat unkind expression and asked a Gennin responsible for monitoring Beiliuhu.

"Danzo-sama, this subordinate deserves to die!"

"Beiliuhu used his shadow clone to deceive his subordinates' surveillance and disappeared midway."

"My subordinates don't know where he went."

Danzo narrowed his eyes and was about to teach this stupid waste a lesson.

"Lord Danzo, the ninjas of Kumogakure Village are making trouble."

"It is said that their blood successor ninja who possesses Lan Dun disappeared in the medical class and is confronting the two ninjas in the medical class who are responsible for treatment today."

"The guardsmen have already passed."

A Gen nin hurriedly ran in from outside and knelt in front of Danzo to report.

Danzo's pupils shrank, and he immediately knew the reason for Beiliu's disappearance.

"This bastard, you have to choose this time, can't you wait until the people from Yunyin Village leave Konoha to do it?"

"If I'm exposed, how do I explain it to Hiruzen?"

"Hmph! You self-righteous fool!"

"Do you really think Mu Dun's experiment has to be done by you? Wait until you come back and see how I deal with you!"

Danzo touched his bandaged eye with his hand and waved his hand irritably.

"Ignore it!"

"With that girl Tsunade in the medical class, Kumogakure can't cause trouble!"

"Is there anything else you want to report?"

Gen Ren, who came to report the news, hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly:

"An ANBU ninja came over just now and said that Hokage-sama asked you to come over."

Danzo frowned, feeling a little guilty.

"How could it be such a coincidence? Has Hiruzen noticed the relationship between Beiliu and me?"

Danzo straightened his expression and asked:

"Then did the ANBU say that Hiruzen had something to do with me?"

The root ninja shook his head.

"My subordinates don't know. I just heard from the ANBU that Jiraiya had just left the Hokage Tower. The Hokage-sama looked very unhappy."

Danzo nodded thoughtfully.

"It doesn't seem to be related to Beiliuhu."

"Then let me go and see what kind of medicine Hiruzen sells in his gourd!"

Arriving at the Hokage's office, Danzo pushed open the door and entered.

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen was the only one in the office, Danzo finally let go of his worries.

"Hiruzhan, you suddenly called me here, what's the matter?"

"I just received news that a ninja is missing in Yunyin Village, and I am preparing to deal with it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen had not received news from the ANBU yet, so he looked at Danzo in surprise.

"The ninja from Hidden Cloud Village is missing? I haven't received a report from the ANBU yet."

"It's just a small matter. It won't be too late to deal with it later."

"I called you here this time because I want to give your root a task."

Danzo found a seat to sit down and asked doubtfully:

"What mission? Do you need to mobilize my roots?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up a piece of paper from the table, which recorded some information about Nagato's eyes that he had just compiled.

"Let's see!"

"The kid named Nagato who came from the Land of Rain to participate in the competition used two very powerful abilities during today's assessment."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen said this, he picked up his pipe and started smoking it leisurely.

Looking at the information in his hand, Danzo's one eye gradually showed a cold light.

"Purple corrugated pupils. It is suspected to be a brand new type of pupil technique called blood successor."

"No need for seals, strong gravitational and repulsive force?"

Danzo suddenly raised his head, the greed and murderous intent in his eyes undisguised.

"Such a powerful eye can only be in our hands!"

"Hiruzen, this brat named Nagato, we can't let him leave Konoha alive!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded expressionlessly, as if he suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, right!"

"That child seems to be one of the three disciples taught by Jiraiya in the Land of Rain."

Danzo was stunned for a moment, then a hint of sneer appeared on his face.

"Hmph!"

"Monkey, have you finally stopped playing your hypocritical tricks in front of me?"

"He is Jiraiya's disciple. Do you have the heart to attack your own disciple?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat up straight, took the pipe out of his mouth, and said seriously:

"While I am Jiraiya's teacher, I am first and foremost the Hokage of Konoha. Personal feelings are not worth mentioning in front of the village."

"It's all for Konoha!"

Danzo:.
