Konoha’s Thief Hand

Konoha's golden glitter will soon become Fourth Hokage!

I don't know where the news came from, and it spread quickly to every corner of Konoha Village. As long as the topic is brought up, even widowed old ladies and naive children can talk a few words.

When he heard the news, Natsuki understood why Orochimaru hadn't come in these two days.

On the day after the news came, Jiraiya happened to return to Konoha Village.

"Hahaha! Congratulations this time, Minato, oh no, Lord Fourth Hokage, hahaha!" At Uzumaki Kushina's home, Jiraiya slapped Namikaze Minato on the shoulder and laughed.

"Hehe! Teacher Jiraiya, you have to prepare your gifts in advance!" Uzumaki Kushina grinned and said.

"Gifts are of course indispensable." Jiraiya patted his chest when he heard the words, and then his expression suddenly changed, pulling Minato aside, squinting his eyes and laughing like a idiot, "In addition to the gifts that should be present, my new work , I can also read it for you first!"

"New work?" Namikaze Minato hadn't noticed that it was wrong, and his eyes lit up and said: "That's a great honor. The "Perseverance" is already great. The new work must be even better. I can't wait! "

"Hey! The genre of the new work is slightly different from that of the one, and it will definitely become a best-selling masterpiece." Jiraiya said with a smirk.

"The teacher's work, I believe it will not be bad." Namikaze Minato did not doubt that he had him, and directly expressed his firm support.

"Then you look forward to it for a few more days. I will be the first to read it to you when I finish writing the hesitant ending." Jiraiya coughed twice and smirked slightly, but in the bottom of my heart, he was already expecting this to make him extremely satisfied. The disciple of him now looks like when he saw his new work.

Hahaha! It will definitely be very interesting!

"Ms. Jiraiya, can you go and see Master Orochimaru for me." Namikaze Minato said a little embarrassingly.

"No problem, I just want to find him too." Jiraiya thought for a moment and understood what Namikaze Minato meant, but he didn't think much about it. He smiled and said to Namikaze Minato, "Orochimaru is obsessed with ninjutsu, and he is obsessed with rights. I have never been enthusiastic, but I lost to my disciple. His proud character must be uncomfortable at the moment, um, it's decided! I'll go look for him now!"

"Mr. Jiraiya..." Namikaze Minato smiled bitterly, not being keen on power and losing in competition, they are totally different things.

Then Jiraiya didn't give him a chance to say more, and left immediately.

It was quiet outside Orochimaru's home. After hearing that Namikaze Minato was about to succeed the Fourth Hokage, Natsuki came to visit directly.

At this moment, he was about to knock on the door when a hurried and cheerful figure rushed over. There is only one Orochimaru family here, and obviously there will be no other goals.

"Yeah! It's you." Jiraiya saw a figure far away, got a little closer to recognize him, and waved hello.

"Uncle Jiraiya?" Xia Shu was startled slightly and asked, "Is the situation stable over there?"

"It's okay. The Cloud Shinobi troops have all retreated back to the Thunder Country, and the border troops have been rebuilt. The next day is peace." Jiraiya walked in and sighed: "I hope it will last longer this time. "

"It will definitely be longer than before." Xia Shu said, "The wastage caused by this war to all parties will not be restored for more than ten or two decades, especially Sand Shinobi in the Kingdom of Wind."

"Sand Shinobi? Haha!" Jiraiya was amused, and shook her head with a sneer, "Are you here for Orochimaru?"

He said and slapped the courtyard door, and shouted: "I'm back, Orochimaru, come out and open the door quickly, I'm not here to laugh at you, hahahahaha!"

The corners of Xia Shu's mouth twitched, and then he yelled a few words, otherwise he felt that Orochimaru might not come out and let the guests have a meal.

I don't know if Orochimaru really had such an idea. After a while, Orochimaru went from the ground to the ground, and then came out of the house to open the door for them.

"Hahaha! Orochimaru, I have beaten you this time." Jiraiya suddenly thrust his waist and laughed.

"Aren't you coming in?" Orochimaru asked Natsuki into the courtyard sideways, then stood in front of Jiraiya.

"Why are you blocking me..." Before Jiraiya's words were finished, the door was suddenly closed, and Jiraiya, who raised his foot forward, almost hit the door with his nose.

Of course, Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku would not be blocked by a mere door, so Jiraiya stepped over the wall before Orochimaru poured the tea.

"It's not ashamed to lose to my disciple, Orochimaru, who made his teacher good." Jiraiya forced a serious look, but when he said the last sentence, there was still an uncontrollable smile on his mouth.

"I can see Minato's excellence, but his teacher...tsk!" Orochimaru seemed to shook his head in disappointment.

"Huh! You are jealous of me." Jiraiya tilted his head, saying that he didn't know much about losers.

"Minato asked you to see me." Orochimaru said in a positive tone, with a casual expression on his face, which made Jiraiya secretly relieved, who was observing him.

"Don't I want to see you myself?" Jiraiya pouted.

"You? Hehe." Orochimaru sneered and said, "The woman in the bath is not good-looking?"

"Of course it looks good... No, I haven't even watched it yet. How can I know if it looks good?" Jiraiya patted his forehead, picked up the tea Orochimaru had just poured himself and drank it, then turned around and left impatiently, "No I wasted time with you. It’s almost evening now, and it’s almost time for the best scenery, hehehe!"

Jiraiya's figure disappeared from sight, Orochimaru shook his head lightly, looked at Natsuki who was quietly tasting tea, and chuckled, "Are you here to comfort me too, Natsuki-kun?"

"Master Orochimaru needs someone to comfort me?" Natsuki smiled. "If that's the case, it's my honor."

"Okay, don't talk about it." Orochimaru's mood was obviously not as indifferent as it was on the surface, and he turned to the subject directly: "Is there something wrong with the experimental body that came to me?"

"There is nothing wrong with the experiment, but it's time for the next step of the experiment." Xia Shu shook his head and said, "Although the researchers at the root have already made plans, I think you should have a better idea."

"There are some ideas, but they are not the best ideas. It needs to be confirmed." Orochimaru chuckled.

"Then confirm it now?" Xia Shu asked.

"Okay." Orochimaru groaned for a moment, then nodded.

So the two got up and went straight to the root base.
