Naruto: Konoha Uzumaki Shirataki

Chapter 73 Jiraiya’s troubles and Orochimaru’s invitation (Ten weekly posts from the starting point,

Since I can’t see the weekly recommendations and collections of QQ Reading, I don’t count those from QQ Reading for now, only the starting point.

None of the above counts.

The gatekeeper ninja looked at Orochimaru in confusion, "Lord Orochimaru, where have you two been during this time?"

"We are performing a confidential mission." Orochimaru didn't say much. After a simple explanation, he patted the gatekeeper ninja on the shoulder and left.

Seeing Orochimaru walk away, the gatekeeper ninja continued to guard the gate meticulously. In fact, the reason why these ordinary ninjas are so gossipy is because Shirataki is currently very popular. For more than half a month, there was no news flowing between the camp and Konoha Village, and this also caused Shirataki's relevant information to be gradually uncovered.

The son of Uzumaki Ashina and the younger brother of Uzumaki Mito, he immediately became a Jonin when he first joined Konoha. Not only did he capture Shinyu, the top executive of Amegakure Village, alive, but he was also able to rival Amegakure's demigod Sanshouyu Hanzo, and these news Among them, some even said that Uzumaki Shirataki had sealed the Kyuubi with his own hands. The known information alone is enough to open everyone's eyes. At the same time, the strong curiosity also drives the ninjas to want to know more.

Logically speaking, the information related to Uzumaki Shirataki is confidential and should not be explored at will by unrelated people. But neither Mito Kadeni in the camp nor Sarutobi Hiruzen who was in charge of Konoha seemed to have any interest in stopping this evil trend, and even intended to condone it.

Most of the sources of these news came from the root. Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to take action as early as the first time, but the news spread too fast. Even Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was the Hokage, could not stop all the ninjas. Mouth. Shirataki was completely unaware of the twists and turns among Konoha's high-rise buildings. He was walking on the way back to the camp, intending to take a bath first and then have a good sleep.

Then, he met Jiraiya who was guarding his door and seemed to have been waiting there for a long time.

"What are you doing?"

Jiraiya was squatting on the ground in an imageless manner, with a notebook in his left hand and a pen in his right hand, as if he was writing something seriously, completely unaware of Shirataki's approach.

Even his expressions became all kinds of strange. Sometimes he was deep in thought, sometimes his eyes were filled with sadness, sometimes he was laughing loudly, and sometimes he was filled with deep anger. The richness of his emotions really made Bai Tong a little confused.

Shirataki's slightly abrupt question made Jiraiya suddenly come back to his senses. He stood up first and subconsciously scratched his head.

Then he seemed to feel something was wrong, so he pretended to be nonchalant and laughed at Shirataki and said, "Ha! Shirataki! You're back!" The laughter seemed a little embarrassing.

The atmosphere seemed to be suddenly silent for four or five seconds. Shirataki tilted his head and stared at Jiraiya for a while. When the latter's face gradually became a little confused, he said, "Are you writing a novel?"

Jiraiya moved his hands slightly and quietly stuffed the notebook and pen into his ninja bag. "No, no, I just kept a diary."

Looking at Jiraiya with a frown, Shirataki unconsciously touched his chin with his palm, "So, you're squatting at the door of my tent just to keep a diary? Do I have anything interesting here? Something worth recording?" "

Jiraiya smiled slightly stiffly and said, "Your place is densely populated and much more lively than our place."

"Okay, don't be pretentious. What's the matter?" Bai Taki waved his hand and made a gesture to walk into the tent.

Seeing this, Jiraiya quickly stopped Shirataki and hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Well, I was a little reckless and impulsive that night. Don't take it to heart."

Shirataki stopped and looked at Jiraiya in surprise, "Do you still remember that incident?" After that, without waiting for Jiraiya to answer, Shirataki said bluntly, "It was just a small friction, and it will be over after it is over." , I never thought about it.”

"Besides." Shirataki glanced at Jiraiya lightly and pointedly said, "There is nothing wrong with taking action for the woman you love."

When Jiraiya heard Shirataki say "beloved woman", his face turned red almost instantly. He stared at Shirataki dumbfounded, as if he couldn't figure out why the other party said such words so casually.

Jiraiya liked Tsunade, but he struggled to express it and was afraid of being rejected, so he never dared to express his feelings and just kept it silently in his heart. Unexpectedly, Bai Taki not only saw through his thoughts at a glance, but also directly announced it to the public in the camp where people were coming and going.

Although there are basically no people here. Jiraiya couldn't remember what Shirataki said after that. When he came back to his senses, he realized that Shirataki had left at some point.

Hurrying into the tent, Jiraiya saw Shirataki to his surprise. He was throwing the dirty white robe on the ground, which seemed to have been worn for ten thousand years.

"Huh?" Shirataki turned around and looked at Jiraiya in confusion, as if asking you what else you want to do?

"Uh..." Jiraiya considered his words and asked hesitantly, "Shirataki, how did you see that, um, I like Tsunade?"

Although Shirataki wanted to say that he knew it from watching anime in his previous life, his words eventually turned into "Anyone with eyesight can see it, right?"

"What? Is it so obvious?" Jiraiya felt as if he was struck by lightning. He stood motionless for a while, and words like "It's over. What should I do with Tsunade?" kept coming out of his mouth.

Shirataki observed Jiraiya's state for a while, and then continued, "Don't think too much, Tsunade must have known about your feelings for her for a long time, and now she is probably waiting for you to take the initiative to speak."

"As a big man, but you are so coy about relationships, I really don't know what to say to you." Shirataki said with a look of contempt.

In his previous life, Shirataki couldn't understand why Jiraiya, a determined man like him, didn't take the initiative when pursuing Tsunade, and in the end, they even separated themselves forever. If Jiraiya could devote half of his energy in writing novels to studying Tsunade, he would probably be a beauty by now.

Being lectured by Shirataki on the spot, Jiraiya was a little unconvinced, "Do you think this is easy? Tsunade is not an ordinary woman. It's not like you don't know her character."

"Ha." Bai Taki chuckled disdainfully.

Seeing Shirataki's disdainful expression, Jiraiya muttered, "Aren't you a bachelor yourself?"

Shirataki glanced sideways at Jiraiya and said calmly, "I don't have that thought at the moment, otherwise I would definitely have a group of wives and concubines, okay?"

Jiraiya complained angrily, "To be honest, with your weird personality, it's weird that a girl would like you!"

"Wait a minute." Suddenly, Shirataki seemed to sense something was wrong, and looked at Jiraiya blankly, "Why do you know I'm single?"

Jiraiya was also stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Don't you know?"

"what do you know?"

"Your personal information, name, family, address, relationships, these things are now in the public domain."

When Shirataki heard this sentence, his first reaction was "Someone is trying to get me", and then he came back to his senses, and figures quickly appeared in his mind, Shimura Danzo, Mito Kadoen, Sarutobi Hiruzen... ...The news spread so quickly. If there were no senior executives to promote it, Shirataki would not believe it.

The complete exposure of his identity is obviously detrimental to Sarutobi Hiruzen, so the person behind it should be Shimura Danzo? But what good would it do him?

Shirataki's face looked a little ugly, but Jiraiya didn't understand it. "Isn't it just that others know a little bit of personal privacy? What's the big deal? I want to be noticed by others, but they still don't pay attention to me!"

Jiraiya's comfort obviously couldn't make Shirataki feel relieved, but Shirataki also knew that the matter was at this point, and it was useless to say anything else. Perhaps, from the moment Orochimaru guessed his identity and informed Jiraiya, this day would come sooner or later, but Shirataki didn't expect it to come so soon.

Slowly rubbing his temples, Shirataki felt increasingly tired. "Okay, let's not bring up this topic. You didn't come here just to chat with me, right?"

Jiraiya slapped his forehead fiercely, and then he remembered that he had to do something serious, but it was Shirataki who kept interrupting him.

Jiraiya said worriedly, "Shirataki, Tsunade, something is not right lately. The main reason why I came to you this time is for Tsunade."

Bai Taki took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled it. The deep breath seemed to make him feel better.

Hearing Jiraiya's words, Shirataki couldn't help but wonder, "Tsunade? What happened to her?"

Seeing Jiraiya's gloomy look, Shirataki couldn't help but feel pity in his eyes, and thought to himself, "Will there really be any good results if you lick like this?"

"Hey, Shirataki." Jiraiya sighed deeply, and then looked at Shirataki with an extremely sincere expression, "You have a flexible mind, and you have such a good relationship with Tsunade. Can you help me think of a solution?"

Just when Shirataki was about to reject Jiraiya, a hoarse voice suddenly came from outside the door, "Shirataki, why is your place so busy?" Orochimaru opened the curtain and walked in.

"Ha, it turns out Jiraiya is here too." Orochimaru smiled at Jiraiya in a conspiratorial manner.

Orochimaru glanced at Jiraiya without any trace, then turned his head and said to Shirataki, who was lying on the bed at some point, "I just handed over the task to Tsunade, guess what Elder Men Yan said?"

"Why does he say it has anything to do with me?" Bai Taki rolled his eyes, pulled up the quilt to cover his body, and added, "I won't stop you two from staying here, but please keep quiet, I want to sleep. ”

After getting along with Orochimaru for a while, he realized that the other party was not really sleepy, and his attitude was just to see him off.

Orochimaru smiled, spread his hands and said: "Forget it, I'll just say it straight."

After pondering for a moment, Orochimaru's face became a little more serious and he directly stated his purpose, "Shirataki, I want to form a team with you."

Before Shirataki could say anything, Jiraiya on the side couldn't hold it in any longer, "Hey! Orochimaru! If you team up with Shirataki, what will Naoki do? Have you forgotten Tsunade's instructions at that time? "

A few seconds later, still with his back to Jiraiya, Orochimaru gave the reply, "It can be transferred to your team or Tsunade's team. You just need to free up a spot. I think Tsunade will be able to do something." "

Orochimaru's tone seemed a little careless. He seemed to be thinking about the rope tree, but the irritability that vaguely appeared in his expression was clearly visible to Shirataki.

"I also have my own pursuits. It's impossible to play ninja games with a group of children every day." Orochimaru continued, this time revealing a little bit of the truth. This mission performed with Shirataki made Orochimaru deeply aware of the fact that he was still very weak. Even though he didn't want to admit it, without Shirataki, Orochimaru estimated that he would have died at least twice, once at the hands of the sea snake, and once during the siege of the rain ninjas.

This cruel fact suddenly woke up Orochimaru, who had been addicted to the aura of genius all day long.
