Vol 4 Chapter 51: be my apprentice
Jiraiya walked out of the Hokage Building, full of guilt and regret. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that a nameless flame was rising within him.
He accepted JOJO's gift, which gave him a younger body, but he couldn't even keep his wife.
When I walked back home, the lights were already turned off at this time—
In order to take care of JOJO's son, Jirai also specially hired a mediocre person. After all, he has always been clumsy and can't take care of babies at all.
He walked in quietly, then went back to the room and lay on the bed, unable to fall asleep with his eyes open no matter what.
"Back then, Mosquito Girl suddenly killed a royal demon... Does this mean that the demons are not united?"
At that time, because of the distance, he couldn't hear Mosquito Girl's words clearly, and he could only see Mosquito Girl suddenly turned around and pierced Tambali's heart with his palm.
"I couldn't figure out this kind of disunity at the time. It stands to reason that they could have been fighting for the plan of resurrecting the Holy Lord for thousands of years. Even if there are party divisions, they shouldn't suddenly do something to their own people at this time. But Now, if the demons are secretly led by a dragon king... then maybe all this can be explained clearly."
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't fall asleep. After tossing and turning, he simply sat up.
He took out the milk from the refrigerator, poured himself a glass, and began to scrutinize
"Because the ultimate purpose of the Dragon King is not to help the demons to unify the world, after all, he and the demons are nothing but mutual use. The dragons and the demons will inevitably have a confrontation in the future because of differences in races, so he must Don't let the power of the demons be too large..."
After drinking the milk in one gulp, he became more and more energetic, so he simply went out the door again, and in the cold wind of the night, he walked slowly on the street alone.
"So, the demons may not be invincible as imagined! As long as the relationship between them can be successfully provoked, no, maybe that dragon king has always been hidden in the demons, or someone else, but if the demons are not all If you are an idiot, you must know that it is impossible for you to get the inheritance of the dragon clan for no reason..."
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he even felt a sense of exhilaration: "If it is what I think, then, we may not lose this battle!"
But in an instant, he became a little lost, because he didn't believe this idea. Orochimaru and Sandai Hokage never thought of it. Compared to himself, their heads turned faster, and logically it should be more than he thought.
But they didn't see the slightest joy in their faces. Did they not expect it, or was there something wrong?
Unconsciously, he quickened his pace, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had actually walked into the forest of death,
The Forest of Death is a training ground for Konoha. It covers a large area, but it is very quiet now, and Konoha has just experienced a big battle, so no one is still exercising in it.
But there are still people. For example, Jiraiya discovered one.
"Yo, isn't this Shishui?"
He saw Shishui who was sitting on a tree, wondering what he was thinking.
Hearing his voice, Zhishui seemed to wake up from his thoughts, and then saw Jiraiya and jumped down in a hurry, "Lord Jiraiya, why are you here?"
As a famous Sannin for a long time, Jiraiya's seniority is much higher than Zhishui, so he can naturally be an adult.
He looked at Shishui, but instead of answering his question, he sighed, "Your eyesight... has already deteriorated."
Shishui's expression darkened, and he reluctantly said, "It's okay, it won't hinder the future battle."
"Don't push yourself too hard." Jiraiya also patted Shishui's shoulder, "You Uchiha finally created a kaleidoscope, so you should cherish yourself."
"Master Fuyue has always said that to me." Zhi Shui lowered his head and said in a low voice, "But now with the enemy, how could I delay the village because of my personal affairs."
Jiraiya shook his head, "If Konoha is reduced to the point where you children must contribute your own value to survive, then it must have reached the point where even if you sacrifice your life, it will be irreversible."
He suddenly stared at Zhi Shui's eyes and suggested, "Zhi Shui, be my apprentice!?"
This is purely his whim, but it may not be impossible to stop Shui as a disciple.
First of all, now Uchiha and the Hokage family are no longer incompatible. In the face of the enemy, any faction must unite. They are not in the mood to fight internally at this time.
This made Jiraiya also think, this may be a good opportunity to completely resolve the conflict between the village and Uchiha!
And he took Shui as his disciple, this is an opportunity, a wedge of the Hokage family to show favor to Uchiha!
"Ah? This...?" Hearing this question suddenly, Zhi Shui was taken aback. He never thought that Ji Lai would suddenly ask him this.
But as a Uchiha clan, he can't just agree so lightly, there is a clan behind him, there are countless Uchiha people He still has to listen to their opinions and see what the patriarch has to say Just do it.
There are many people who think that Shisui, like Itachi, is a ninja who betrayed the Uchiha clan with his heart to the village.
In fact, it is not. The reason why Shisui wanted to help the Hokage family to monitor Uchiha was mainly because he noticed the huge gap between the strengths of the Uchiha family and the Hokage family.
If Uchiha rebels, then there is only one way to go.
In order to leave a way for the clan to survive, he will always turn around between the Hokage clan and Uchiha. But if Konoha really wants to attack Uchiha one day, he will not let the village kill his own people.
When Itachi exterminated his family, he was even a little glad that Zhishui didn't see this scene, otherwise he would definitely stop himself.
It can be seen that although Zhishui has a heart for the Hokage family, he is not someone who disregards the righteousness of the family. While he loves the village, it does not prevent him from loving his own clan.
After all, how many people in this world can be ruthless and attack their relatives?
The indecisive Shishui can't be so unfeeling, can't be so ruthless, which is one of the reasons why Danzang must take away the **** of Zhishui.
"Of course." Zilai also smiled, "I will be looking forward to your answer until tomorrow afternoon."
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked you what are you doing here?" Zilai also changed the topic, "There was a lot of commotion in the village before, and you couldn't sleep?"
"It's not..." Zhi Shui shook his head, "We are guards. If we weren't summoned, we wouldn't be allowed to interfere in Anbu's operations at will."
