Chapter 229: The Hidden Grass Village Attacks

After visiting the Ninja School, Jiraiya, led by Yahiko, went to visit the rest of Amegakure Village. Basically, he visited the entire Amegakure Village except for the Akatsuki organization base.

After returning to the Amegakure Building, Jiraiya felt very complicated.

He was very happy that Yahiko, Nagato and others had developed Amegakure Village so well and realized his dream, but Amegakure Village was not Konoha after all, and no one's status in his heart could be compared to that of Konoha Ninja Village.

The development of Amegakure Village is likely to threaten the village in the future, unless Konoha can follow the example of Amegakure Village and carry out a drastic reform.

However, how can reform be so easy?

With his character, even if he runs to become the fifth generation Hokage, he may not be able to fight against the opposition in the village. Even if he has been the third generation teacher of the Hokage for decades, he still has to compromise when it is time to compromise.

At this time, Jiraiya suddenly remembered something and asked Yahiko: "By the way, Yahiko, how is the demigod-sama doing recently? Why haven't you seen him in the village?"

"Hanzo-sama..." Yahiko and Konan looked at each other and then said, "Hanzo-sama has retired a long time ago and has not been involved in village affairs for a long time."

"So that's it. I also want to meet Hanzo-sama."

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya's expression changed slightly, his eyes filled with suspicion.

Jiraiya wondered if Yahiko and Konan were hiding something from him. Their path to power was definitely not as simple as they said.

Without knowing that Yahiko and others were his apprentices, Sanhohanzo might have carefully trained them, but after Yahiko visited Konoha, Sanhohanzo could more or less guess the identities of Yahiko and the others.

After learning of this situation, Sansho Hanzo had no reason to hand over his position as leader and let Yahiko and others take over the power of Amegakure Village.

Unless the real person in power in Amegakure Village is Byakuya, the heir that Hanzo really likes is also Byakuya. However, he has been in Amegakure Village for two days and has not yet met Byakuya, which makes him feel very strange.

However, this is not the first day that the ghost has appeared in the white night. He may have gone to another place again.

Retracting his thoughts that were gradually diverging, Jiraiya no longer dwelled on these irrelevant things. Now he just wanted to leave Yuyin Village as soon as possible and continue on the road to travel to various countries.

…

After spending another night in the Hidden Rain Village, Jiraiya said goodbye to Yahiko and others and left the Country of Rain.

Standing at the entrance of the village, looking at Jiraiya's leaving figure, Yahiko sighed softly, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

As the leader of a village, Yahiko has long developed the ability to observe words and emotions.

He could read Jiraiya's inner thoughts and knew that his mentor's mood was very complicated. He didn't know if it was because he mentioned Minato or for other reasons.

At this time, a figure appeared next to Yahiko, looking at the direction where Jiraiya left, and said lightly: "Boss Yahiko, how are you getting along with Brother Jiraiya these days?"

Hearing this, Yahiko looked at Bai Ye and said with a surprised look: "Bai Ye, why are you here? I haven't seen you in the past few days. I thought you went out for activities again."

Bai Ye shook his head, and then said: "I didn't leave the village. I didn't show up just so I wouldn't disturb the gathering of our master and disciples."

"However, you have taken Jiraiya to visit many places in the past few days..."

"When you open your hearts to Jiraiya like this, haven't you ever thought that Jiraiya might take the opportunity to collect information about the Hidden Rain Village and then report it to the Third Hokage?"

"Jiraiya-sensei is not that kind of person..."

Yahiko was about to explain, but then he asked with a strange look: "Byakuya, if you don't stop us from taking Jiraiya-sensei to visit these days, is there another conspiracy?"

Bai Ye's expression changed, and he quickly denied it: "How can the strategy be considered a conspiracy?"

After a pause, Bai Ye continued: "But I don't object to you imparting successful experience to Jiraiya. If Jiraiya is willing to imitate us, then let him do whatever he wants."

"However, the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain are different. I don't think Jiraiya can do anything."

Hearing this, Yahiko fell into deep thought for a short time.

What Byakuya said was very straightforward, but very reasonable. It would be difficult for Mr. Jiraiya to make a difference in the Konoha Ninja Village, even if he and Nagato shared their experience. .

The reforms they carried out in Yuyin Village had a prerequisite, which was force.

They relied on force to rise to power and were able to suppress all opposition and force the development of Yuyin Village.

But Jiraiya couldn't launch a rebellion to seize power, and he didn't even have the idea of ​​becoming Hokage, otherwise he wouldn't be traveling around the ninja world, looking like he had nothing to do.

Thinking of this, Yahiko sighed a few times and looked into the distance.

In his sight, Jiraiya's originally majestic back was now a bit more ordinary. Although his teacher Jiraiya proposed the idea of ​​mutual understanding between people, it was just an idea.

Teacher Jiraiya always talks about this, but the number of times he actually puts it into practice is pitiful.

After removing the filter of childhood, Mr. Jiraiya is just like himself, just a mortal living in the ninja world.

Retracting his thoughts that were gradually diverging, Yahiko said to Byakuya: "I believe Mr. Jiraiya can do it. Sooner or later, he will become our like-minded companion."

"Then I'm also looking forward to that day..." Bai Ye said following Yahiko's words.

At this time, a ANBU ninja suddenly appeared in front of Bai Ye. After seeing Yahiko, he squatted down and said, "Master Bai Ye, Master Yahiko, there is something important to report at the border."

"Is there a problem at the border?" Yahiko looked extremely solemn.

The ANBU ninja didn't waste any words and said directly, "Just a few hours ago, the ninjas of Kusagakure attacked the Land of Rain and hurt the people of the Land of Rain."

"Kusagakure? How dare they do that?"

Bai Ye was uncertain and said coldly, "Did we not pay enough for Kusagakure back then? They dared to come back! This time we must completely eliminate their high-ranking officials."

"Bai Ye, you are too extreme..."

Yahiko spoke habitually. Facing the provocation of the Land of Grass, he was also unbearable and could only add, "We still need to think about this matter in the long run."

As Bai Ye's face changed, he was also very confused. Why did the Kusagakure dare to attack the Land of Rain? Could it be that the Paradise Box of the Ghost Lantern City in the Land of Grass appeared in advance?

The ninjas of Kusagakure Village wanted to use the power of the Box of Bliss to expand their territory.

If this was true, he would have to leave the village temporarily and join forces with others to deal with the Box of Bliss. The Box of Bliss was a treasure from the Six Paths period, and the monsters inside it were as powerful as the Tailed Beasts.
