Chapter 52: Passing the Torch

"How could it be him?" Mizuki did feel a little puzzled, in the original book, it was the Moonlight Blaster who tracked and monitored the Medicine Master, and then was killed by Sand Ninja Maki, although he didn't have a deep friendship with Moonlight Blast, but as a comrade-in-arms who had been born and died, if possible, Mizuki still hoped that he could survive.

"What's the problem?" Kakashi asked, "Moonlight Blast is a special shinobi who is good at tracking and lurking, excellent swordsmanship, and good combat power, isn't it just right to investigate Yakushi?"

Mizuki nodded and didn't speak, there was no exact information, it seemed impossible to send a stronger ninja, so he couldn't let himself say that the sand ninja was going to rebel. Although it is true that there is intelligence that this ally, who has always been not convinced by Konoha has been acting abnormally recently, it is still too shocking to say that the Sand Ninja Association will join forces with Orochimaru to attack Konoha Village.

"I really can't help, Moonlight Wind, so I can only ask for more blessings. 』

Sakura Haruno, who was listening to Mizuki and Kakashi talking, suddenly interjected, "Kakashi-sensei, the moonlight blast you are talking about is the examiner of the Chunin exam, and Yakushidou is the candidate who took the exam together, right?"

"yes. Kakashi replied.

"But why are they all Konoha ninjas, Senior Dou is going to attack Sasuke, and the special shinobi of the village are going to investigate?"

Mizuki listened to Sakura's question, looked at Kakashi and said, "Didn't you tell your subordinates any information?"

Kakashi replied embarrassedly, "Didn't you forget this? Anyway, no one asked, I thought I knew." Sakura-chan, the senior in your mouth, is actually Orochimaru's subordinate and traitor. It is also ill-intentioned to approach you. ”

"How can this be?" For Sakura, who has rarely been in contact with the dark side of ninjas, Orochimaru's attack was very scary, and this time I actually heard that the senior who was close at hand was actually a spy with evil intentions, which was too much of a shock to Sakura's worldview.

"Sakura-chan, that's what the world of ninjas is all about, betrayal, injury, and even death are things to face. Mizuki said comfortingly.

"Is that so, and the teacher has had this experience too?" Sakura asked.

"Alas, Sakura-chan, there are some things that are too early for Shinobi, but it's time for you to know what is happening around you. Kakashi felt that he should fulfill his duty as a teacher, "Do you remember the mission of the country of waves, and the attack of Kazuhaku again?The time when both Naruto and Sasuke almost died?There are far more things behind the scenes than you think, and do you remember that Mizuki-sensei was seriously injured when you returned to the village? In fact, he and the instructors of your middle ninja exam, Moonlight Blast, and Morinoi Biki were all involved in the mission of the country of waves, and secretly the Konoha ninja blocked the attacks of the ninjas from other villages, so that we only had to face two people." ”

Kakashi sighed after speaking: "Sometimes the battle in the sun is not everything, the open and secret battle behind the scenes is also an extremely important thing, and the skills such as stealth and counter-espionage taught by the ninja school are not only for you to use for exams, but for you to actually use to protect yourself." ”

"Okay, Kakashi, now isn't the time to preach, don't you still have something to do?" Mizuki said to Kakashi as he said farther and farther away.

"Yes, then I'll go first. ”

Watching Kakashi leave, Mizuki turned to Sakura Haruno and said, "There are some things that Shinobi knows too much and it's not good, it will discourage your enthusiasm." ”

"Yes, Mizuki-sensei. ”

Looking at Sakura, who is serious about studying, Mizuki sincerely hopes that this smart girl will not think too much, and just drill the horns.

On a high roof in Konoha Village, Jiraiya leaned on the railing and watched the farce below with interest, the elite teacher Ebisu was teaching Naruto Uzumaki the technique of using chakra, but the impetuous Naruto always did not do well, he was scalded by the hot water of the hot spring, and he was soaking wet, and he was arguing with Ebisu. Since yesterday, Jirai has been observing this pair of living treasures carefully.,The open-minded Jiraiya is also amused by the funny Naruto from time to time.

At this moment, an uninvited figure appeared behind Jiraiya and walked over slowly.

"Hey, have you been discovered?"

"Isn't it normal for you to hide well and be discovered? "From time to time, someone else is the teacher of Jiraiya, the third generation of the Hokage Ape Flying Sun, "After so many years away from the village, is there something wrong with coming back this time?"

"What else can I do?" replied, "I'm quite a famous and popular writer." ”

"Well, whatever you want. The three generations also have a headache about the frank character of Zilai, "But it's just right to come back this time, the current situation of the village, you must have understood it after watching it for so many days." ”

"After so many days, who found out who told you?"

"Don't talk about those inconsequential things, you also know the news of Orochimaru's return, this time I will make up for the mistakes of the year. "I'm getting older, and no matter what the outcome is, I hope you can take my place." ”

"Old man, don't be kidding, I'm not interested in staying and being this thankless Hokage, you better find someone else, there are so many people who want to be. ”

Hearing Jiraiya's words, the third generation also said regretfully: "I know that you were dissatisfied with my approach back then, otherwise you and Tsunade would not have wandered outside for so many years and never returned, but as the head of the village, it is inevitable to weigh the pros and cons, and you can't accommodate a few people." ”

Sarutobi has been the Hokage for so many years, and the situation of the village is the clearest, but when the situation is unfavorable, sacrifice the interests of a few people, maintain the authority of the village, I don't know how many times I have done it over the years, some of them are ordered by themselves, some are Shimura Tunzang, and they acquiesce to it, the death of Hinata Ninji's father, Hinata Hinata Hinata, and the extermination of the Uchiha clan, are just two more famous.

"So I can't do this kind of thing, so I'd better leave it to someone more suitable. ”

"Alas," the third generation sighed, "then what do you want to do when you come back this time?

"Sort of, but this time I met an interesting guy. Jiraiya was noncommittal, looking at the funny Naruto Uzumaki below.

"Oh, what kind of prophecy is your child of fate?"

"Who knows? that is the Nine-Tails Pillar Force, and the sons of the fourth generation have also grown up healthy!"

"Well, I'm already an excellent ninja in Konoha and I'm quite like you back then. ”

"Time flies so fast, four generations have sacrificed more than ten years, and my sons are so old. As if he remembered something, he couldn't help but say, "Don't die, old man~"
