Chapter 29, The Final Winner, It’S All A Scheme!
Inside Konoha Village.
After a series of battles, Senju Ryuuma successfully joined Konoha.
And in an unknown corner, the unknown game is still going on.
Outside Konoha, the Root base.
The two "troops" are in a solemn confrontation.
One side is led by a white-haired middle-aged man and a number of "toad" troops.
The other side is led by a gloomy one-eyed man and the "Root" ninjas.
The two sides have maintained this confrontation for a long time.
Finally, the "gloomy one-eyed man" Danzo couldn't stand it anymore and shouted at the "white-haired middle-aged man" opposite.
"Jiraiya! What on earth do you want to do?"
"Openly blocking the "Hokage Advisor", are you going to rebel?!"
"Get out of my way now! Otherwise, don't blame me for turning my face against you."
As Danzo's voice fell, Aburame Togen and Yamanaka Feng behind him stepped forward at the same time, giving Jiraiya a lot of pressure.
These two people possess the secret techniques of the Aburame family and the Yamanaka family, and are both powerful ninjas.
If they really want to fight, even if Jiraiya wants to deal with them, it will take some effort.
As a member of the "Konoha F4", Shimura Danzō also serves as the "Hokage Advisor" on the surface, which is also a symbol of his status within Konoha.
The status of the "Hokage Advisor" in Konoha is only below the Hokage.
Theoretically speaking, Jiraiya's behavior of obstructing Danzo can indeed be called "insubordination".
If they really want to fight, Jiraiya is still not right.
For a moment, Jiraiya's brows couldn't help but slightly frown.
No matter how unruly he is, he is still a Konoha Shinobi.
The hierarchy within the village must not be forgotten.
He was able to stop Danzo for such a long time, which was the result of his strength that made Danzo afraid.
Thinking of this, Jiraiya also felt a little helpless.
Even a strong "hero" like Jiraiya feels helpless when facing some situations.
But at this moment, a toad suddenly jumped to Jiraiya's ear and whispered something.
I don't know what the toad said, Jiraiya's face suddenly changed.
Then, he silently clenched his fists, released the Summoning technique, and sent back the "toad army" behind him.
These toads were originally summoned by him to "support the scene".
Sending them back now also symbolizes that everything is over.
At the same time.
Danzo on the opposite side of Jiraiya seemed to have received some news, and a trace of distortion flashed across his gloomy face.
Danzo glared at Jiraiya fiercely, and after leaving a harsh word, he turned around and returned to the root.
"Jiraiya, I'll remember what happened today!!"
"Let's go!!!"
At that moment, a group of root ninjas followed Danzo back to their nest.
Obviously.
At this moment, Jiraiya and Danzo each received news from Konoha through their own channels.
Since the matter has been settled, there is no need for the two to continue the confrontation.
..................
After the "Root" evacuated, Jiraiya was left alone standing there in silence.
It was not until a long time later that he muttered to himself with a dazed look on his face.
"Orochimaru, you guy."
"Do you really have to do this?"
"..............."
Suddenly, he recalled the letter he received from Orochimaru a few days ago.
In the letter.
Orochimaru clearly told Jiraiya about the "collapse of Konoha".
And he explained in the letter that the "collapse of Konoha" was jointly launched by him and Danzo, and Danzo would definitely take the opportunity to rebel.
At this point, the letter stopped abruptly.
Jiraiya knew that this was a "choice question" Orochimaru had given him.
Either, help Sarutobi Hiruzen deal with Orochimaru and let Danzo rebel.
Or, stop Danzo's rebellion and give Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen a chance to fight a fair duel.
In the end, no matter how complicated his mentality was.
But Jiraiya's choice was exactly what Orochimaru expected.
-- He chose to let Orochimaru fight the Third Generation and instead stop Danzo's rebellion.
This can actually be seen in the original work.
In the original work.
The reason why the "collapse of Konoha" was calmed down.
There are many reasons, but the most important ones are two aspects.
The first is of course because Orochimaru was severely injured by the Shikigami Fujin, and Konoha knew that he was no longer able to cause any more trouble.
Therefore, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu knew that the trouble had been eliminated, so they could live peacefully without panic.
The second is Jiraiya's timely return.
But Jiraiya's "return" itself is actually full of doubts.
After all, he didn't come back early or late.
Just as Orochimaru killed Sarutobi Hiruzen, he arrived in time.
This is too much of a coincidence.
Combined with the entire "Konoha Collapse", Danzo has been missing.
It is not difficult to guess what Jiraiya is doing.
Everything is Orochimaru's plan.
He first used Danzo's ambition to create an opportunity to attack Konoha.
Then he used Jiraiya to contain Danzo.
In the end, he achieved his goal of sending Sarutobi Hiruzen to his death and seizing Sasuke.
This is Orochimaru's "killing four birds with one stone" plan.
In the original work.
A "Konoha Collapse" can be said to have no winners.
The several forces involved can be said to be "all lost".
On the Sand Shinobi side, not to mention the death of the Kazekage, the whole process was White Hits, pure fun.
On the Oto-nin side, Orochimaru killed Sarutobi Hiruzen at a heavy price, laying the foundation for Sasuke's counterattack in the future.
On the Konoha side, Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen died in battle with a large number of ordinary ninjas.
On the Danzo side, Orochimaru plotted against him and his efforts were in vain.
And now, with the appearance of Senju Ryuuma.
There is only one and the final winner of this "Konoha collapse".
That is - Senju Ryuuma!
