If you hadn't witnessed it with your own eyes, there was a strong bond between Jiraiya and Orochimaru, which didn't seem to be fake. Let Naruto take this as a basis, and think of the three generations of Hokage when looking at Orochimaru, it is very likely that there is also a very deep teacher-student relationship.

After all, in the original plot, it has already been mentioned that the three generations of Hokage, who has always put the interests of the village first, violated his heart and principles after discovering what Orochimaru had done. So much so that despite the conclusive evidence, he still never made up his mind to kill the disciple he once valued and loved the most. And then it became an important reason why Orochimaru was able to get out of the Konoha Ninja Village safely!

Moreover, in the memory transmitted back by the previous shadow clone, an inconspicuous episode added a weighty ironclad to this conjecture......

That is, after learning that Naruto's body had already encountered Orochimaru and even started a hand-to-hand battle, the three generations of Hokage watched the changes, and the anxious fire of Fugaku and Hizoku, showing an extremely stark contrast!

In this situation, can it be said that the three generations of Hokage, who spoil Naruto in every way on weekdays, are actually all acting on the spot, and they don't care about Naruto's life or death at all?

Apparently that cannot be said of this......

has reached the twilight of his life, which is enough to be regarded as the three generations of Hokage who dedicated his life to the Konoha Ninja Village, and was originally able to sit at home with peace of mind and enjoy a leisurely and relaxed retirement life......

But the fact is that not long after leaving office, even the pain and trauma that surfaced in my heart due to the loss of my beloved wife have not begun to heal and recover. Without hesitation, he dragged his old bones to be ordered to support the crumbling Konoha Ninja Village. And then like Lao Ji Fufang, he silently endured all the resistance he suffered, and led the Konoha Ninja Village to start a new round of recuperation. Re-shouldering the terrifying hardships and sorrows hidden under this seemingly radiant Hokage throne!

In this way, after experiencing the sacrifice of the second generation of the master Hokage, the successive departures of Tsunade and Orochimaru, who were disciples, the unexpected death of his beloved wife who had been with him all his life, and the sacrifice of the Mizuto couple...... The pain of losing an important person in an instant when you are caught off guard, who can understand it more thoroughly than the three generations of Hokage? Or, in terms of the determination to try to do something to make up for these past regrets, how many people can surpass the three generations of Hokage?

It's a pity that before trying to make amends and save it, the position of the three generations of Hokage was not an ordinary old man who could act as he wanted, but the leader of the three generations of Hokage, who represented the highest combat power and spiritual pillar of the Konoha Ninja Village! So much so that the weight of this responsibility has already completely suppressed all the impulsive emotions of this seemingly thin old man.

Every choice must be made in the interests of the village, and no emotions should be used.

Every step of the way must be taken to avoid threats to the safety of the village.

Under these many restrictions, when the three generations of Hokage are faced with a choice, even if they know in their hearts, this is to sacrifice the important person in their hearts, or even suffer a change of enmity...... As long as he can bring higher benefits to the village, the three generations of Hokage can only endure silently and clenched his teeth, and choose a path that is contrary to what he really wants in his heart.

Because of this, Orochimaru, who has long been defined as an S-level traitor in Konoha Ninja Village, is said from another perspective...... Undoubtedly, it is another victim of the three generations of Hokage who reluctantly adhered to the principle. So much so that he watched Orochimaru defect and escape, but he didn't grasp the opportunity to kill him on the spot, completely eradicating the possibility of Orochimaru posing a threat to Konoha Village, for the three generations of Hokage who always put Konoha Ninja Village first in his heart, it was already an extremely unintentionally determined choice!

And if the three generations of Hokage can share a little more of Orochimaru's mood when his mood changes. In order to use the identity of the person who came over, he cared about appeasing the emotions of his disciple. So much so that when Orochimaru is facing a turning point in his life, he will give the right guidance. Will Orochimaru still go all the way to the dark, and continue to rebel and flee the village obsessively? Or will you give up the obsessed study of forbidden ninjutsu and turn to running around for the benefit of the village, just like Jiraiya? That's one thing that no one can say.

It is precisely because of the existence of this almost empathetic speculation that Naruto, who is based on this, will follow his instinct to value the friendship of partners, love the house and the black, and include the Orochimaru in front of him as one of the candidates for the future whitewashing partner. And then he did not hesitate to risk his secret being leaked again, to take advantage of the opportunity that Orochimaru's heart had not yet completely fallen into blackening. Try to make some changes to the relationship between the master and apprentice duo who are gradually becoming strangers before Orochimaru becomes one of the many bosses that need to be faced in the future.

And this is the best choice Naruto can make right now......

After all, just as there is no regret medicine in the world. There is no such thing as an if...... So much so that Naruto, as a traverser, can only do the only thing to do is to try to rewrite the trajectory of events before everything is a foregone conclusion!

Well, in a sense......

This choice is somewhat similar to Orochimaru's discovery of the intimate relationship between Jiraiya and Naruto, and he immediately gave up all his thoughts of killing.

Of course, that's right......

But in advance, Naruto hadn't expected that it would all go so smoothly!

You must know that in Naruto's original vision, being able to successfully persuade Orochimaru to keep him away from the real "old" guy who has survived from ancient times to the present day can be regarded as achieving his basic goal - to repay Orochimaru's warning and trust, which is already a matter of good luck...... So much so that in this process, whether he can move the Great Snake Pill as he wishes and make him change his mind and turn back, he has no confidence at all.

In other words, the remarks that were hastily conceived intentionally or unintentionally and frequently mentioned the three generations of Hokage, in Naruto's own opinion, were full of loopholes and looked extremely vulnerable. In turn, it can shake Orochimaru's psychological defense, make it easier for Orochimaru to believe every word Naruto says, and slightly weaken the hatred and resentment in Orochimaru's heart. In Naruto's expected deduction, it can be regarded as an excellent development trend!

However, it was this kind of fragile remarks that achieved far more amazing results than Naruto expected.

After all, at the end of the day, it was the soul of an adult that Naruto controlled this young body from the moment he crossed over. And then the bystanders are clear, and the authorities are confused. Because in this life, I have never felt the warmth of family affection brought by the company of my parents. makes his heart already an adult, and has a complete original plot, Naruto, who is a weapon of "spoiler cheating", naturally reacts to the death of his parents and is naturally very calm and calm.

And on this basis, coupled with the fact that Naruto and the three generations of Hokage, although they get along harmoniously, if you study them carefully, it is not difficult to find that between Naruto and the three generations of Hokage, the time that they are honest with each other in the real sense is only from the moment when Naruto planned to kill Danzo, and now it is less than a year [because Naruto spent a year during this period, to follow Jiraiya for special training]. So much so that if you compare it seriously, you can even say that because the three generations of Hokage are too restrained in their own rational style, the time that the three generations of Hokage and Naruto get along with each other is not as good as Uchiha Fugaku, who treats Naruto as his own son, and spoils him!

In this way, Naruto naturally couldn't really imagine, and suddenly experienced the pain of the death of his parents, Orochimaru, in addition to the two partners Jiraiya and Tsunade, only the three generations of Hokage were by his side, taking care of the cultivation carefully. What a strong sense of dependence has been derived from the existence of this master and father. Not to mention that Naruto always subconsciously distorted the consciousness in the original book in the original book, abandoning the past mentor-apprentice kindness, and even being able to kill the master mercilessly as a reference template for Orochimaru, who has just joined the Jinxiao organization. As a result, when Naruto was thinking about it, he inevitably thought that Orochimaru, who had just joined the Shinxiao organization, was too dark and incurable.

Moreover, from beginning to end, the appearance of Orochimaru was a complete accident for Naruto. Because of this, Naruto racked his brains, and he couldn't imagine that the reason why Orochimaru appeared here was because of the "Danzang handwritten order" that he had imitated. It was absolutely unthinkable that just this secret order fabricated out of thin air, combined with Naruto's mistakes, seemed to be particularly logical and coordinated. It's enough for Orochimaru to make up so much of his own brain between the lightning and flint - for example, Orochimaru will see what will happen here as a group treasure...... In other words, it is one of the many calculations of the three generations of Hokage - the "truth behind the scenes"! So much so that in this vague sense, realizing what Naruto might say next. When Naruto persuaded Orochimaru, the resistance he faced was naturally far lower than Naruto's original expectation, more than one or two notches lower!

And this is another benefit hidden when smart people talk to smart people......

Fortunately, one of Naruto's many strengths is that he deliberately honed his ability to adapt on the spot in order to deal with the unknown events that are hidden under the influence of the inevitable butterfly effect when rewriting the fate of his partner......

At the beginning of the experience, because he witnessed Orochimaru's almost distorted madness when he heard that Kuro was extremely likely, the key to his coveted immortality. When he heard Naruto mention the third generation of Hokage, he used the speed of changing his face like a flipbook, and instantly stammered and spoke, looking lacking in confidence, and after being stunned for a moment, Naruto immediately realized that this was very likely a perfect opportunity for him to successfully transform the overly ridiculous and impossible rough plan he had conceived in a hurry into reality! Then he seized the opportunity of Orochimaru's heart to be pierced by words, causing his consciousness to still be in a state of confusion, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he spoke out with more and more confidence, breaking the short silence between the two.

"It's because it's the third generation of Hokage, so in the entire Konoha Ninja Village, there are only three generations of Grandpa Hokage, who can make the Uchiha clan, who have been suppressed everywhere, gladly choose to cooperate, isn't it?"

With the idea of striking while the iron is hot, Naruto's thoughts become clearer and more active. And the moment he spoke, even in Naruto's mind, he didn't know anything about the many misunderstandings that had surfaced under Orochimaru's cranky thoughts. It didn't prevent Naruto from responding naturally and explaining as usual.

"What's more, do you think that Grandpa Jiraiya has been traveling between countries for so many years, constantly looking for your whereabouts...... Grandpa Hokage, the third generation, really doesn't know anything about this? ”

“……”

Naruto's words were undoubtedly the Great Snake Pill that made his consciousness gradually wander out of the world, and he gradually recovered from his senses. Then, almost instinctively, he tilted his head a little, and followed the prestige towards Naruto at the same time. The reply to the words that came out of Naruto's mouth was speechless, and he couldn't say half a word in response. Then he had to move his eyebrows slightly, and cast a hesitant look at Naruto in disbelief.

Obviously, because of the social circle of the rulers of the Konoha Ninja Village, Orochimaru not only knows about the three generations of Hokage, but also has heard of the cold and arrogant temperament of the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku. And based on this, Naruto's words naturally added a lot of credibility. So that what remains in my heart now is only a little vigilance and precaution under the influence of that cautious style......

And these vigilances, which were almost dying, were so fearless compared to the sense of grievance and relief that Orochimaru suddenly surged into his heart. So much so that in a sense, Orochimaru is not so much still questioning the authenticity of Naruto's words, but rather waiting for Naruto to give a more reasonable explanation, so that he can let go of the resentment and hatred that have gradually intensified over the years.

"Over the years, why has Grandpa Jiraiya been able to wander around the village only by his own will, and he has never been bound by the rules of the village. Why did the grandfather of the three generations of Hokage willingly pull down his face and take the initiative to ask for help from the Uchiha clan. Even at the expense of some price, to seek the cooperation and help of Tuan Zang......"

Fortunately, Naruto, who was good at observing words and feelings, after seeing Orochimaru's obviously much more relaxed appearance, naturally nodded slightly with a smile full of planning, but did not let Orochimaru wait for even a second. Instead, he shook his head and continued to talk.

"You should have guessed the reason for all this, right? Orochimaru-sama ......"

The clock is still ticking......

But unlike the previous nervousness......

At this moment, Naruto's heart was already full of joy and confidence. is even quieter, the original, just to keep Orochimaru away from the goal of extinction, has been quietly changed to save the love bond of this awkward master and apprentice!

Because of this, unconsciously, it was originally just a whim, using white lies to give Orochimaru advice. Let Naruto inadvertently bury another foreshadowing that is enough to write the course of history!
