Chapter 117: Sarutobi Hiruzen: This Old Man Is Not Happy At All
"Hahahaha! As expected of my man!"
Receiving the news, Tsunade held the message scroll and laughed joyfully.
Since Aoyama Ryūun was transferred from the Iwagakure battlefield, Tsunade didn't think anything bad would happen to him.
After all, that is the man she chose.
"As expected of Ryūun-kun!"
Orochimaru on the side also smiled faintly and said.
But unlike Tsunade, when Orochimaru said this, his eyes flickered.
Obviously, he was planning some other things.
...
"Lord Ryūun's strength has become stronger again!"
In the Konoha camp on the Kumogakure battlefield.
Hatake Sakumo, who also received the news, was gathering with the Ino-Shika-Cho trio.
"That guy is truly a monster!"
Hatake Sakumo smiled and sighed.
Nara Shikaku on the side, after hearing such words, smiled and said to Hatake Sakumo:
"If Lord Ryūun were here and heard this sentence, he would definitely beat you up!"
"Uh! Get lost, get lost, get lost!"
Stunned for a moment, Hatake Sakumo glared at the Ino-Shika-Cho trio grumpily.
He is the dignified Konoha's White Fang; doesn't he need face?
"Yo! Sakumo, Shikaku, Chōza, and Inoichi, you are all here!"
At this time, Jiraiya brought Namikaze Minato and walked over from not far away.
It had been some time since Jiraiya came to support the Kumogakure battlefield.
With Jiraiya, this top-tier combat power, although they couldn't defeat Kumogakure, they could resist them.
"Uh! Lord Jiraiya, have the Kumogakure people started attacking?"
The appearance of Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato made Hatake Sakumo and the Ino-Shika-Cho trio look at each other.
"No, no! It's news from the Iwagakure battlefield!"
Obviously, Jiraiya himself had also received the news.
"Really amazing, has Ryūun grown to this step?"
Jiraiya sighed somewhat.
Although he always knew Aoyama Ryūun's strength was great, he didn't expect him to be strong to this extent.
Aside, Namikaze Minato, who was following Jiraiya, had a complex expression.
Jealousy? Actually, there was some.
Namikaze Minato knew clearly that compared to him, a sinner of Konoha...
The current Aoyama Ryūun was the Hero of Konoha.
"Ma! Lord Ryūun's strength has always been very strong, otherwise, he wouldn't have thrashed Kumogakure into a second-rate ninja village!"
When speaking, Nara Shikaku looked sideways at Namikaze Minato.
Only a guy like this would think that Kumogakure was weak, not that Aoyama Ryūun's strength was too strong.
"Uh!"
Namikaze Minato wasn't stupid; how could he not see Nara Shikaku's meaning?
But!
He had absolutely no way to refute it.
"Ahahaha! It's all in the past. Next, we have to fight well!"
There was no helping it; after all, it was his disciple.
Jiraiya could only step forward to smooth things over for Namikaze Minato.
Fortunately, Hatake Sakumo and the Ino-Shika-Cho trio had no intention of dwelling on this issue.
After taking a final look at Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato, they prepared to leave.
"Lord Jiraiya, I have something to do, so I'll leave first!"
Saying this, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio turned and left directly.
"Just right, I'll also go see how Kakashi's swordsmanship training is going!"
Saying this, Hatake Sakumo also followed and left.
Originally, their relationship with Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato wasn't incredibly good, but it wasn't bad either.
But because of Namikaze Minato's battlefield error...
The current them, not cursing Namikaze Minato directly was already giving Jiraiya face.
"Hey! Let's chat, why leave so fast!"
Jiraiya intended to say something.
But Namikaze Minato on the side smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"No need to say more, Sensei Jiraiya. I deserve all of this!"
It wasn't that Namikaze Minato was open-minded.
Namikaze Minato could imagine long ago that there would be such a result.
"These people originally followed Lord Ryūun. I snatched Aoyama Ryūun's position as commander-in-chief..."
"And buried over a thousand Konoha ninjas..."
Even now, when talking about this matter, the humbleness in Namikaze Minato's eyes was hard to conceal.
"The fact that they didn't scold me directly is already good enough!"
The Konoha ninjas who survived the battlefield before...
During this time, they had been looking at Namikaze Minato with resentful eyes.
As if saying, why, why did you have to snatch Aoyama Ryūun's position?
Otherwise, they wouldn't have lost to Kumogakure at all!
"Minato!"
Seeing Namikaze Minato like this, even though Jiraiya wanted to persuade him, he didn't know what to say.
He could only sigh silently.
Namikaze Minato's current behavior, to put it harshly...
Was atonement, atoning for previous mistakes.
Jiraiya no longer expected Namikaze Minato to have a day to become Hokage.
He only hoped...
That after the war ended, when his disciple returned to Konoha, there wouldn't be so much abuse.
Even though he wasn't in Konoha now...
Jiraiya could imagine...
That bunch in Konoha must have already branded Namikaze Minato as a sinner of Konoha.
...
Regardless, the great victory on the Iwagakure battlefield...
Jiraiya and Namikaze Minato were not happy.
Except for the Konoha F4 on the Kirigakure battlefield...
It was believed that the entire Konoha ninja force was cheering for Aoyama Ryūun's strength.
"Aoyama Ryūun, as expected of the man known as the Strongest Creature!"
At this time, the one responsible for leading the Uchiha clan on the Kirigakure battlefield had become Uchiha Fugaku.
Perhaps the father was getting old, or maybe to help build momentum for Uchiha Fugaku...
So the current Uchiha Clan Head, Uchiha Fugaku's father...
Intended to let Uchiha Fugaku farm some prestige.
In the conference room, looking at this news, Uchiha Fugaku said with a tone full of admiration.
Fugaku didn't have so many petty thoughts right now.
He just lamented that Aoyama Ryūun was strong. Even facing the alliance of four ninja villages, Konoha could stand in an invincible position.
As for other thoughts, he had none.
However, what Uchiha Fugaku didn't notice was...
Such a sigh...
Made the faces of the Konoha F4, led by Sarutobi Hiruzen on the side, look somewhat ugly!
