Chapter 245 Uchiha Fugaku
"In addition to the four of you Minato, I will also participate in this joint operation."
"no."
The meeting continued, and Jiraiya did not hesitate and immediately said that he would also participate in this operation.
But his decision was blocked by the Third Hokage.
"Old man, give me a reason."
Jiraiya looked at the Third Hokage with a calm face.
He also knew that the old man was doing it for his own good.
After all, this operation is also risky.
As the current Hokage, he really shouldn't take risks when someone is using it.
But for the sake of his former disciples, he also wanted to make a final effort.
At the very least, they must obtain the body cells of Nagato and Konan to prepare for future resurrection.
"You are the Hokage now. Your duty is to stay at the rear, formulate strategies to develop the village, and ensure the safety of the village, instead of charging into battle like you did back then."
Sure enough, the Third Hokage's words were similar to what Jiraiya thought, and they were all for his safety.
"Don't worry, old man. No matter what, Nagato is still my disciple, and even if I can't defeat him, can't I still run away?"
What Jiraiya said was reasonable, and the Third Hokage didn't know how to refute it for a while.
After learning about the five puppets of Pain's Six Paths, Jiraiya wanted to run away, but Nagato really couldn't catch him.
The same is true in the original work. After Jiraiya broke an arm, if he wanted to run, Pain couldn't stop him while he was still in sage mode.
It's just that he feels that Konoha will face off against Pain sooner or later. If he doesn't understand all of Pain's abilities, Konoha may suffer in the future.
That's why he didn't run away, but continued to fight Payne, hoping to obtain more information, and then died in the hands of Payne's Six Paths.
The fifth generation Jiraiya in the present world did not know this, but with the information of the five puppets, he felt that if he wanted to run away, Nagato would never be able to stop him.
"Okay, I can't tell you that. At worst, if you die, I'll have Orochimaru work overtime to resurrect you."
".It's better not to resurrect if you can."
Needless to say, the pain of death is something we all know because we are ninjas.
Just talking about the money that resurrection will cost, that’s a lot of money.
Some time ago, he talked about this topic with Orochimaru, and by the way, he checked the account books in Orochimaru's laboratory.
Unexpectedly, he was shocked when he saw it. At that time, Jiraiya realized that it would cost so much money to clone a serious clone.
No wonder Orochimaru wanted him to increase funding from time to time. He thought Orochimaru was filling his own pockets, but he didn't expect that he was dedicated to public service and spent all his money on experiments.
Looking at the long series of zeros on the ledger, Jiraiya felt distressed.
If you don't become a master, you don't know how expensive oil and rice are.
To develop a village, money is needed from the beginning.
Jiraiya immediately made a decision.
Fugaku and Mikoto are the last people to be resurrected for free.
No matter who wants to be resurrected in the future, they have to pay for it.
After all, the landlord’s family has no food left.
"Okay, since no one objects, then this matter will be settled."
"Hokage-sama, do you want to join us?"
"Work together? No, I just went to Yuyin Village secretly to talk to Nagato. If we can't reach an agreement, I will come back."
"I see."
Asma sat down and said she had no problem.
But Kakashi suddenly stood up and said, "Should Sasuke and his family participate in this operation?"
Three days ago, Orochimaru resurrected Sasuke's parents, Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto, as agreed.
During the crusade against the Akatsuki organization, their Konoha side would most likely encounter Itachi Uchiha.
Faced with this dangerous person who had mixed reputations and reputations, Kakashi felt that it would be better for them, the Uchiha, to deal with it themselves.
"Fugaku? Okay, after the meeting, you go to the Uchiha side and ask for their opinions."
"Okay, Hokage-sama."
After the main players were determined, the meeting went very smoothly.
As soon as the meeting ended, Kakashi ran to the Uchiha mansion and found Uchiha Fugaku basking in the sun in the courtyard.
"Chief Fugaku."
"Oh, it's Kakashi, what do you want from me?"
After being resurrected, Fugaku's personality also changed somewhat.
It is no longer as serious and boring as before, but has become calm and lazy.
When I have nothing to do, I will stay in my small courtyard to bask in the sun. I don't care about any decisions of the village, and I am completely at peace.
"Hokage-sama asked me to ask, will Chief Fugaku and Sasuke participate in this crusade against the Akatsuki organization?"
Kakashi didn't ask Uchiha Mikoto. It wasn't that Kakashi didn't respect her, but that she wasn't strong enough and would be a burden if she left.
Sasuke is actually a liability, but who calls him the "second male lead"? Coupled with his obsession with Itachi, if he is not called, he will definitely be annoyed to death in the future.
"I definitely have to participate, but there is a question about Itachi."
After all, Itachi was his son. If possible, Fugaku didn't want Itachi to die like this.
"You need to talk to Hokage personally about this."
".Okay, I will go find Hokage-sama tonight."
After receiving Fugaku's answer, Kakashi left and quickly returned to the Hokage Building to report the situation to Jiraiya.
"Thank you for your hard work Kakashi."
"It doesn't matter. If Hokage-sama is okay, then I will leave first."
"Well, you go first."
At night, Uchiha Fugaku brought Uchiha Sasuke to Jiraiya's house.
The two sides had an exchange about how to deal with Itachi.
Finally, after a long period of pulling and pulling, Jiraiya agreed to keep Itachi Uchiha alive.
At the same time, the village will mobilize public opinion to whitewash what Itachi did back then, so that he can return using the undercover clone planted by the village.
And all Fugaku and the others paid was to ensure that Itachi would not cause trouble in the future, and a large amount of money.
The Uchiha clan left behind a vast legacy.
A small part of it was confiscated by three generations of old men under various names when Sasuke was still young and used to develop the village.
Most of the remaining wealth is in Sasuke's hands.
Originally, the third generation old man thought very well.
With such a large Uchiha inheritance, every family in the village has thoughts about it.
When Sasuke can no longer hold on, he can come forward and ask Sasuke to entrust them to manage it in the name of the village.
Giving Sasuke a sum of money every month would be a good way to spend it.
In this way, the appearance of the third-generation old man will not be so ugly, and Sasuke will be able to get a large sum of money every month.
It's simply a win-win.
I just didn't expect that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes.
Whether in the original work or in this world, Orochimaru's plan to collapse Konoha failed the plan of the third generation old man.
Therefore, although the current Uchiha is just an empty shell, he is very rich.
