Naruto: Who made him a ninja?

"You're back?"

Inside Konoha Village, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Jiraiya and the others with a smile.

However, Jiraiya's face was full of awkward smiles, and his eyes were also a little evasive.

Returning to Konoha from Kirigakure didn't waste much time, if it wasn't for 'taking care of allies' and taking a boat across the sea together.

Shūzawa would have used Flying Thunder God to bring them back long ago!

Of course, even without the 'taking care of allies' matter, Jiraiya wanted to be an ostrich, because he knew too well what would happen when he returned to the village.

But no matter what he thought, they still leisurely returned to Konoha, but Jiraiya still made a decision.

"First, settle the Mizukage in the place where you previously kidnapped... invited the Fourth Raikage and that brat Huangtu as guests, let's meet Lord Hokage first!"

Jiraiya felt that this time when he went back to deal with the old men in the village, he had to take some measures and strategies.

For example, report the mission first, say the good things first, and then discuss the matter of Yagura Karatachi with him.

After all, with a lot of good news as a foundation, and then tell the fatal things at the end, his teacher should feel a little better, right?

"How was this operation? Did you cause any more trouble?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi knew his disciple too well, and he immediately became suspicious when he saw Jiraiya's appearance.

"Lord Hokage, this time we obtained sufficient information."

However, just when Hiruzen Sarutobi was planning to call the Anbu over to inquire about the situation, Shūzawa spoke up in time.

"Under the leadership of Captain Jiraiya, we carefully investigated the affairs of the Land of Water, and we can be sure of one thing, the Fourth Mizukage is controlled by Obito Uchiha!"

"Oh?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes widened instantly. A Kage was actually controlled by someone. This was unheard of in the entire ninja world!

Kirigakure, to what extent is this going to be embarrassing?

Touching his pipe, Hiruzen Sarutobi asked with a slightly solemn expression.

"Tell me in detail, what exactly is going on."

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

Shūzawa glared at Jiraiya, and found that this guy's eyes were still evasive, he knew that this guy was unreliable, so he could only speak himself.

"As we all know, Obito Uchiha's Mangekyō Sharingan seems to be able to control the tailed beasts, that's how the Nine-Tails incident happened back then.

And Yagura Karatachi, as the Three-Tails Jinchūriki, although he is not afraid of ordinary genjutsu, it is difficult for him to resist Obito Uchiha's direct control of the tailed beast in his body."

"You mean, after the tailed beast is controlled, he must deal with the tailed beast, that's why he was tricked?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi is after all a 'Ninja Professor', he is also very good at genjutsu, even compared to the Uchiha, he is still a little behind.

After all, without the blessing of Sharingan on genjutsu, it doesn't mean that his genjutsu is not good, and his theoretical knowledge is extremely rich!

If the tailed beast in the body is tricked, as a Jinchūriki, he can only find a way to suppress it, which makes him lose a lot of energy in vain.

And without the tailed beast assisting, it is really too difficult to deal with Mangekyō's genjutsu.

"That's probably it."

Shūzawa didn't actually know how Obito Uchiha operated it, after all, he wasn't an Uchiha, but guessing a rough idea was no problem, and he could also magnify things!

"Moreover, according to everything we have learned, Obito Uchiha used the identity of the Fourth Mizukage to carry out large-scale revenge in Kirigakure.

Including but not limited to the expansion of the Blood Mist Policy, the bloody persecution of family ninjas, and the blockade of the Land of Water, etc.

He relied on a series of policies to make the entire Kirigakure and the people of the Land of Water miserable, so I think his level of danger should need to be improved."

"That's right, he is indeed an extremely dangerous guy."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded, Obito Uchiha can be said to have really set a precedent!

Controlling the Kage of a great power ninja village, and using policies to cause such terrifying and huge damage to his village and country, is something that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

But Obito Uchiha not only did it, but also succeeded. If Minato Namikaze hadn't left the Flying Thunder God mark, allowing Shūzawa to detect the clues.

I'm afraid ordinary people would never have thought that this matter could have such an operation!

What's more, where there is one, there is two. With Obito's approach, it is difficult for the Kage not to be wary.

Because Obito Uchiha's approach is very likely to give those disobedient subordinates a reason for rebellion!

The ninja villages of great powers may be slightly better, but the situation in other places in the ninja world is not so good.

In addition, as a Kage, you really need to be careful. Yagura Karatachi was unlucky because he himself was a Jinchūriki.

If it weren't for the need to fight against the tailed beast, he wouldn't have been controlled so severely.

But just as Hiruzen Sarutobi thought, is Mangekyō's genjutsu so easy to deal with?

The answer is obviously no!

"It seems that this guy needs to be carefully considered."

Lighting his pipe, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath, and for a while, the Hokage's office was filled with smoke.

In addition to worrying about these issues, Hiruzen Sarutobi also needs to think about how other villages view the connection between Obito Uchiha and Konoha.

Even if this guy is already a missing-nin, he was after all cultivated by Konoha...

"In addition to this, we have also obtained relevant information about the Akatsuki organization."

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi thinking, Shūzawa glanced at Jiraiya before he said quietly.

Along the way, Jiraiya had been wanting to ask this question, but Yekura and the people from Sunagakure were there, so he could only forcibly hold back from asking more.

But he had always been extremely curious about what was going on, what exactly happened.

"Akatsuki organization?" Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded: "Tell me about it."

Because of Obito Uchiha, the Akatsuki organization was also kept in mind by Hiruzen Sarutobi, not to mention that Orochimaru was also in this organization!

"According to current intelligence, it is tentatively determined that there are seven people in the Akatsuki organization."

Shūzawa considered his words before speaking softly.

"Besides Kakuzu, Juzo Biwa, and Sasori, Orochimaru, Konan, Nagato, and Obito Uchiha are all connected to Konoha."

"Nagato? Konan?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned. The names were quite unfamiliar to him, but Jiraiya sighed.

"They were children I took in and cared for in the Land of Rain. Tsunade knows about this. I taught them for three years, but I never expected them to turn out like this."

"Is that so?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his eyebrows, secretly cursing that he hadn't been told about this, but Hideki interrupted them at this moment.

"According to the information I have, they originally had some goodwill towards Konoha.

Even though Konoha killed their entire family, they were still grateful because of Lord Jiraiya's teachings."

"."

Hiruzen Sarutobi pursed his lips, and Jiraiya's face twitched slightly. If you can't speak properly, then don't speak, okay?

What do you mean Konoha killed their entire family? It was clearly a problem of war, war!

"It's just that, later on, they seemed to have encountered some trouble."

Hideki glanced at Jiraiya, gave him a look, and then continued, saying.

"They always followed Lord Jiraiya's will, but later on, it seems someone joined forces with Hanzo to recruit them or did something.

One of the three was captured, and the other two were forced to kill each other. In the end, one of them died at the hands of their companion, and the one who killed their companion exploded.

Although I don't know who did this, the guy I fought specifically said that someone from Konoha was involved."

Konoha?

Hiruzen Sarutobi's face darkened. He seemed to instantly think of someone regarding this kind of messed up matter!

And at this moment, Jiraiya seemed to be possessed by a drama queen. He raised his head with a 'whoosh', looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi in astonishment.

"Teacher, I received information eight years ago that they were dead. I didn't expect it to be like this. Could it be . . ."

"Shut up, don't say it!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately interrupted Jiraiya. He quickly looked at Hideki, and seeing that Hideki was still calm and didn't seem to be thinking too much, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

It's just that Jiraiya also gave him a hint, eight years ago?

Wasn't that the year when Danzo's Root organization was destroyed?

And it was also eight years ago that the Rain Ninja suffered huge losses, and the demigod Hanzo went into seclusion.

Could it be—

Someone who originally had goodwill towards Konoha, but was completely ruined by Danzo, and this person was able to defeat Hanzo and eliminate Root all by himself?

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face was unsightly. How many things had that bastard Danzo done behind their backs!

You deserve to die, Danzo!

Hiruzen Sarutobi was roaring inwardly. He knew that Danzo had been doing many things in the dark, but it was undeniable that the things this guy did were beneficial to the village.

Therefore, even if he knew that Danzo would profit from certain things, he basically wouldn't interfere, because Danzo really had the ability and the capability.

But he never expected that Danzo would cause them such a big disaster?

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi's fists were hardening, Hideki suddenly blinked. At this moment, his system panel refreshed once again!

[Completed Mission: Investigate the Hidden Mist Village]

[Mission Evaluation: SS]

[Acquired Free Points: 12]

[Completed Hidden Mission: Reveal the Secrets of the Akatsuki (2)]

[Mission Evaluation: SS]

[Acquired Free Points: 12]

[Because of the high mission completion rate, and rescuing the Sand Village allies, causing huge damage to the Hidden Mist, forcing them to negotiate with Konoha, defeating the Akatsuki members, and revealing the secrets of the Akatsuki]

[Acquired Special Reward 1: Ninjutsu Scientist]

[Acquired Special Reward 2: Free Points Doubled]

[Current Free Points: 65]

Hideki originally had 5 Free Points, plus the hidden points given by Obito, and this time with the doubling, he directly obtained 65 Free Points!

Looking at the changes on the panel, he became excited. This was another big harvest!

As expected, only by making things bigger would his gains be greater . . .

"The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish!"

As for the [Ninja World Scientist], it's likely another new trait, but before Hideki could take a closer look, Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly spoke.

"This time the mission was completed well, take a good rest, but there are still some questions."

Hiruzen Sarutobi finally recovered from Danzo's troublesome matter. No one knows what he was thinking, but it could be seen that there was some anger hidden in his eyes.

But he still restrained himself very well and continued to ask about the mission.

"What's going on with those people from the Sand Village, and how did you explain the Fourth Mizukage's matter to the Hidden Mist?"

"The people from the Sand Village were unlucky. They were victims of Obito Uchiha controlling the Fourth Mizukage and Elder Yome to fight each other. Similarly, we were also dragged into it. As for the Mizukage . . ."

Hideki immediately came back to his senses and said in a low voice, while Jiraiya beside him had already straightened his body, and a painful expression appeared on his face.

"We made contact with Elder Yome, and he expressed his hope to talk to Konoha, deepen mutual understanding and cooperation, and try to put aside past conflicts . . ."

"Elder Yome? Talk to Konoha?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was a little surprised, but in an instant, he also straightened his body, because Hideki didn't mention the Fourth Mizukage's problem!

"What did you do? What about the Fourth Mizukage? How did you deal with them?"

"This, Lord Hokage, we didn't actually do anything. It's just that the Hidden Mist might need some 'minor' assistance from us to rebuild the village."

Hideki was also a little embarrassed at this moment. Looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi, whose eyes were wide open, he gave a dry laugh, and then immediately passed the buck.
