"You stay and let Minato Namikaze go when the time comes."
Orochimaru glanced at Jiraiya and said, "I'm afraid that if you go, not only will you not be able to take Tsunade with you, but you will also become a burden to her."
When Jiraiya heard this, he immediately became furious and shouted, "What are you so proud of, you stinking snake? Who was beaten so hard that he couldn't even lift his hand? I turned on the immortal mode and solved a person with the same skill in just a few clicks. Ninja in Thunder Chakra Mode!"
After saying that, he felt an extremely cold breath, which made him shake involuntarily, and then he saw Orochimaru's extremely dangerous eyes staring at him...
Gu…
After swallowing a sip of saliva, Jiraiya decisively closed his mouth.
"That's enough. As the legendary Sannin of Konoha, what do you two look like?!"
The Third Hokage was also annoyed and scolded directly.
With the teacher talking, and with Jiraiya cowering first, Orochimaru also lost the intention to argue with Jiraiya. He turned his head to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said, "I have a suggestion. When I came here, I heard from ANBU that the mysterious ninja named Jonathan Joestar who appeared during the previous battle with Dio seemed to be still in the Fire. Within the country, I hope to bring him to Konoha. His mysterious ninjutsu has a strong restraint effect on dark creatures and will be a big help in future battles."
"Let Jiraiya go. They have fought side by side and have a certain foundation of friendship." The Third Hokage nodded, agreeing with Orochimaru's proposal.
As for Jiraiya, who was assigned, his veins were bulging and he felt unhappy.
This Orochimaru always knows how to find things to do for himself all day long. He really deserves to be beaten by that Thunder Release master! ~
But even the teacher had agreed, so he no longer wanted to argue with Orochimaru. He sat on the chair and tilted his head, automatically blocking Orochimaru.
"Okay, let's get down to business." Seeing that everyone had finished speaking, Danzo coughed slightly, and then said, "The main reason we are gathering together this time is to hear if you have any suggestions for the Third Tsuchikage. what idea."
"Let's talk it over first. Koharu, Danzo, and I are all opposed to this proposal." Mito Kabuto reminded him.
"The strength of the Shichibukai cannot be underestimated, and their most mysterious leader has not yet appeared. If he can come, I think this exception can be broken."
The opinions of the Third Hokage were different from those of the three Hokage advisors. His statement was also expected by several people, so Danzo and the others set their sights on Minato, Orochimaru and Jiraiya, and even On Uchiha Fugaku.
They all know the hidden dangers of the Uchiha clan, but compared to the upcoming war, it is nothing.
After all, the Uchiha are still Konoha's Uchiha. No matter how dishonest they are, they just want to launch a coup, not defect. In the first three ninja wars, the Uchiha clan's military exploits for Konoha are unparalleled. In the minority.
Therefore, even if they hate Uchiha, they will not choose this time to attack.
Especially when Fugaku exposed his kaleidoscope...
"I don't think there is any problem." Jiraiya said, "I have dealt with the Shichibukai the most, and I know their strength very well."
Ignoring the extremely oppressive gazes of the two Hokage advisors and Danzo, Jiraiya said casually, "Although I don't know the purpose of the Shichibukai, what is certain is that they are an organization that has been around for thousands of years like the demons, and They have been guarding the demonic energy before, maybe they have some means to fight against the demons,"
"The teacher makes sense." Minato also agreed, "Even if the five major nations unite, they may not be able to forget the hatred of the past. If we cannot unite as one, then our power cannot be effectively used. This kind of Under the circumstances, the power of the Shichibukai is necessary."
"And... the Shichibukai have been hiding in secret for who knows how long, so will they choose to come out because of this change? I don't think so, especially when their leader is very powerful and has extremely high prestige. .”
"Are you going to base Konoha's interests on possible charity from other organizations? Minato Jounin?!" Danzo frowned and angrily yelled, "You have to know that there can't be anyone in this world who is willing to sink underground for thousands of years. Organization, if this organization is full of masters, that’s even more true!”
"However, in fact, they do have a long history, and they have not been born to be a powerful force."
"Okay, okay, there are eight of us here, so my opinion as the Hokage counts as two votes. Plus Jiraiya and Minato, there are already four votes supporting this proposal. Orochimaru and Fugaku, what do you two think? ?" The Third Hokage knocked on the table to stop Danzo who was about to speak, and then looked at Orochimaru and Uchiha Fugaku.
"Although I am very interested in those members of the Shichibukai, it is a pity that I do not want to formally meet them under such circumstances." Orochimaru sneered, and at the same time his eyes met Danzo, and he smiled slightly. He nodded to him.
Danzo returned a satisfied look. He knew that Orochimaru was currently working on a project that was tainted with taboos. Without him as a cover, Hiruzen, the old fox, would probably have discovered it in a short time. By then, Orochimaru would have only The only way left is to defect.
And even whether the defection can be successful depends on whether the Third Hokage wants to let him go. The Third Hokage at this period has not aged as much as it has for more than ten years. With his current strength, it is estimated that it will not be difficult to kill Orochimaru.
You must know that during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, the Third Hokage could even knock the complete Nine-Tails out of Konoha with one stick. This performance can be said to be very strong.
Seeing Orochimaru standing on the other side, Sarutobi Hiruzen was no exception. He also knew that his apprentice had always had a strong personality, and he had been very close to Danzo during this period, so it was not unexpected to support him. .
The two sides were tied four to four, and only the crucial vote was left for Fugaku. Therefore, the seven people present turned their attention to Fugaku, which made him feel a little overwhelmed as he had never experienced this formation.
However, no matter how much he said that he was Uchiha, the leader of the most powerful clan in Konoha, he naturally would not be frightened by such attention. After thinking about it, he said, "What Hokage-sama said is correct. Others don't care. But this mysterious leader of the Shichibukai must know a lot of information about the demons. In the battle between ninjas, information is crucial. We are in the light, and the demons are in the dark. In other words, our combat capabilities, Ninjutsu and blood succession limits are all within the other party's control, but we know nothing about the other party's abilities... "
"In this case, we will be at a huge disadvantage... Therefore, I agree with the Hokage's idea and support the Shichibukai to participate in the Five Shadows Conference!"
