Chapter 268
After a short silence.
Everyone had no choice but to return to Konoha and went straight to the office of the Hokage building. Naruto pushed the door open and walked in.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was sitting on a small chair not far away, while Tsunade was sitting at the desk belonging to the Hokage.
After seeing Naruto coming, she breathed a sigh of relief, and asked with a slight shake of her chest, "Tell me all the details, Naruto."
Hearing this, Naruto didn't waste any words and directly told everything he knew, even the existence of Aguramaru.
He didn't cover it up.
But listening to this information.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was not far away, had an extremely ugly expression. After all, guaranteeing Sasuke's safety was his promise to Itachi, but now Sasuke left.
It means that he has spoken out of turn.
But Tsunade didn't care too much after hearing this, "Since Uchiha Sasuke betrayed the village, he will be classified as a C-level traitor."
Naruto wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end. After explaining the situation clearly, he pushed the door and left the office.
However, in the Hokage's office.
Tsunade, who was sitting on the table and flipping through the documents, suddenly said, "Old man, did you know that the Akatsuki organization in the ninja world is capturing Jinchūriki?"
In response to this question, Sarutobi Hiruzen directly replied, "The seven-tailed beast has been captured by the other party. Their goal is to collect all the tailed beasts.
But don't worry Naruto, they will only capture the nine-tailed beast at the end."
Hearing this information, Tsunade was stunned for a moment.
"How do you know so much?"
Faced with the inquiry, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not intend to hide it, but told all the truth of the year.
"That's because..."
At the same time.
Naruto, who walked out of the Hokage building, saw Jiraiya who had been waiting for a long time on the street, and he smiled and greeted him.
"Are you sad about your friend's defection? How about I treat you to ramen to relieve your mood?"
"I'm hungry too, so hurry up, lecherous sage." Naruto walked forward with a smile and followed Jiraiya on the street.
But suddenly, Jiraiya reminded him without looking back, "Give up that Uchiha brat, Naruto, he won't come back anymore."
This was also said to himself.
After all, he was just like Naruto, wanting to bring Orochimaru back to Konoha, but he never succeeded in his life.
He didn't want Naruto to follow his old path.
But what he got was Naruto's extremely confident answer, "I believe Sasuke will return to Konoha one day."
Turning his head to look at that determined gaze, Jiraiya's mouth corners slightly raised and said, "It seems that you believe in that Uchiha kid very much. I really can't do anything to you.
But we won't be in the village for the next three years. I plan to take you out for training next. You must be prepared."
"So sudden?"
Naruto was a little unresponsive. Three years in one go?
But he didn't resist too much.
Until the next morning, after saying goodbye to everyone, the two officially left Konoha and embarked on a new journey.
In the village, Tsunade also chose to accept Sakura as her apprentice.
Even Sasuke found Orochimaru and began to practice under his guidance.
Everything was going on in an orderly manner.
...
In a blink of an eye, it was already three years later.
The entrance of Konoha.
Two figures appeared. Jiraiya, who had not changed much, complained there, "It's been a long time since I came back to the village. Do you want to take a bath?"
And Naruto beside him replied with a smile.
"You lecherous sage, do you want to take a bath? I don't even want to tell you."
Looking for the voice.
At this moment, Naruto was 1.7 meters tall, with long golden hair to his neck, and bangs on his forehead on the side of his face.
His handsome face gave people a gentle feeling. He was wearing a black cloak with a black and white lining underneath, and a knife on his waist.
"What are you talking about? I was just collecting materials. But you, kid, don't know how many girls you will seduce now."
Jiraiya looked at Naruto in front of him and couldn't help teasing him. The more he looked, the more satisfied he was.
The two of them didn't talk too much nonsense and entered the village.
And Ajuromaru in the sword couldn't help but stretch. After three years of going out, Naruto's strength has now completely entered the ranks of Kage.
He has also learned all the ninjutsu left by Minato.
He is definitely an enhanced version of Minato Namikaze, and even mastered the spiral shuriken, but he didn't learn the fairy technique.
Ajuromaru didn't understand what Jiraiya was thinking.
Outside.
Walking on the streets of the village.
From time to time, there were passing girls looking at Naruto like a fangirl, which made Jiraiya shake his head and mutter in a low voicesaid.
"I'm handsome too, why don't you look at me?"
Naruto beside him pretended not to see anything.
The two went straight to the Hokage building, and as soon as they entered the office, they saw Tsunade who was busy, and when she saw the newcomers.
She was also a little surprised.
"Jiraiya? And Naruto! You are back, but Naruto, you have changed a lot, I almost didn't recognize you."
"Long time no see, Tsunade-san."
Naruto also responded with a smile.
Jiraiya beside him also said with a smile, "The three years of training are over, and I won't leave this time. Do you want to have a drink together tonight?"
"What are you waiting for tonight? Let's go now!"
Tsunade immediately stood up and hurriedly pulled the two out.
And Shizune, who was standing on the side behind, hurriedly reminded, "Tsunade-sama, the official business has not been handled yet!"
But no matter how they exchanged, they couldn't make Tsunade stop. It seemed that they were drinking and reminiscing about the past, but they actually wanted to avoid official business.
Naruto did not go to the tavern with the two of them, but returned home alone. However, it was not as dirty and messy as expected.
Instead, it was kept very clean.
Without paying too much attention, Naruto quickly took the blade from his waist, took out the whetstone, and began to grind it carefully.
"How is the strength?"
In response to the question, Ajuramaru also reminded, "A little higher, and use a little more force."
Now Naruto's knife-sharpening skills are not even inferior to Katsuzuka.
...
Time just keeps passing like this.
Naruto also met his former companions again, and everything was so peaceful.
Until a month later.
The entire Konoha Village began to take action, and even Naruto was summoned to the Hokage Building and appeared in the office with him.
There are also Sakura, Neji and Rock Lee.
Tsunade in front of them explained to them, "At present, the Undead Army has appeared in the Demon Country and is constantly ravaging various countries.
Your team leaders, Kakashi and Kai have already joined the attacking troops and rushed to the front line, and you have to implement another plan.
That is..."
