Chapter 171 Ye Yu is a big liar
Chapter 171 Ye Yu is a big liar
Jiraiya frowned when he heard the two men wanting him to be the Fifth Hokage.
"My personality is not suited to be Hokage."
The two immediately said, "This isn't a question of whether you're suitable or not. Right now, the village needs a Hokage, a Hokage who can take charge of the overall situation. You are one of the Legendary Sannin, and you have enough experience, so you are the most suitable candidate."
Jiraiya thought for a moment and said, "Speaking of seniority, I think of someone."
The two Hokage advisors exchanged a glance.
They had thought of that too, but the two of them said, "But we can't find where she is."
Jiraiya laughed and said, "I can find her."
Both of them nodded. "If you can bring her back, then it would be very appropriate for her to succeed as the Fifth Hokage."
Don't be fooled by the fact that the two Hokage advisors seem to always be at odds with Tsunade.
However, when it comes to important village matters, they always stand firmly on the Hokage's side. They may have different opinions, but when it comes to making the final decision, they will definitely side with the Hokage.
As the granddaughter of the First Hokage and one of the Legendary Sannin, Tsunade is undoubtedly a very suitable candidate for Hokage.
Jiraiya continued, "I can find Tsunade and persuade her to come back as Hokage, but I have a condition."
The two asked, "What are the conditions?"
Jiraiya said, "I'm going to take Naruto with me."
The two of them frowned.
"You should know who he is."
Jiraiya nodded calmly. "I know. That's why I took him out."
After a moment of contemplation, the two nodded and said, "If you want to take him out, then take him, but we hope you can guarantee his safety."
As the village's only Jinchūriki, the two advisors hesitated about whether to let Jiraiya take him out, but after careful consideration, they still trusted Jiraiya's character.
After all, they were able to choose Raiya as Hokage, so naturally they trusted him a lot.
Jiraiya smiled and said, "What are your thoughts on the orders left by the Third Hokage before his death?"
Because when the Third Hokage left the order that day, many Anbu ninjas and Jonin were present.
So naturally, the two Hokage advisors also heard about it.
The two didn't seem to have any reservations about the issue, and simply said, "We'll do as the Third Generation says."
Jiraiya was somewhat surprised. "Don't you have any objections?"
The two shook their heads. "What objections could we possibly have? Since the Third Generation has made this arrangement, there must be a reason for it. We still trust the Third Generation's judgment."
It's easy to understand if you think about it: Yoru was considered a member of the Hokage lineage by the Third Hokage, and even if the two Hokage advisors had objections, they would still support him.
This is the stance of the two advisors: they will remain aligned with the Hokage.
Moreover, although they didn't know much about Yoru, they trusted the Third Generation's judgment.
Since the Third Hokage gave such an order before his death, it shows that he thought highly of Yoru.
Yoru's strength and talent have certainly been recognized by the Third Hokage.
They naturally wouldn't object.
Jiraiya didn't say anything more.
Meanwhile, at Konoha Hospital.
Naruto and Sasuke recovered after several days of treatment.
Sakura and Kakashi brought flowers to the hospital room to visit the two.
Sakura also told Sasuke, Kakashi, and Naruto about how the Nine-Tails appeared and defeated Shukaku that day.
Very few people actually knew about the appearance of the Nine-Tails on that day.
Because the battlefield was in a forest dozens of kilometers away from Konoha Village.
After Sakura finished speaking, Naruto said, "That day, Kurama suddenly said it wanted to control my body."
"When I saw that the tailed beasts of Sunagakure were about to use the Tailed Beast Ball, I had no choice but to trust Kurama."
"I never expected it would actually save the village."
Kakashi hadn't expected this to happen; he was guarding the Four Purple Sun Formation at the time.
They didn't notice the battle between the One-Tailed and the Nine-Tailed.
When Kakashi thought about the mission to the Land of Waves, Yoru seemed to have mentioned that he and Kurama had reached an agreement that Kurama would not go berserk on its own.
Naruto clutched his stomach, exclaiming, "Is this my Nine-Tails or his Nine-Tails?"
Hearing Sakura recount the words Kurama said when it left, Naruto felt a pang of sadness.
After all, the Nine-Tails sealed inside him wasn't fighting for him, but for Yoru.
Sasuke remained silent.
After a long pause, he finally said, "I'm still too weak. I don't know when I'll be able to catch up with him."
"He's far more powerful than I imagined. He even tamed a creature as powerful as the Nine-Tails. Just how powerful is he?"
"He never seemed to use his full strength."
"Can I really catch up with him? Is he just kidding me?"
Sasuke thought about it more and more and more, and he realized it was true.
He didn't necessarily want to catch up with Ye Yu's back, but Ye Yu had said that he could defeat him as long as he developed his Sharingan to the Mangekyou Sharingan stage.
Sasuke didn't completely believe Yoru's words; he felt that even after awakening his Mangekyou Sharingan, he still wouldn't be able to defeat Yoru.
But catching up with him shouldn't be a problem.
But now, hearing Sakura's words, he felt that he might not even be able to catch up with Yoru's back.
Sasuke shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That big liar, he actually lied to me and said I could surpass him."
Sasuke lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling with a bitter expression.
He knew how strong Shukaku was; after Gaara fully transformed into his tailed beast form, he was instantly killed by Shukaku.
Shukaku, who could have instantly killed him, was instantly killed by Kurama.
The Nine-Tails, which instantly killed Shukaku, was actually willing to protect the village of humans, the very creatures the tailed beasts hated most, for Yoru's sake.
This only proves that Ye Yu has tamed the Nine-Tails.
Only if Ye Yu's strength can suppress the Nine-Tails will the Nine-Tails submit to him.
How big is the gap between me and Ye Yu?
Sasuke felt he had been deceived by Yoru.
However, unlike before, he didn't go to extremes after discovering he had been scammed.
He now just thinks Ye Yu is a big liar, but he's doing it for his own good.
Ye Yu simply wanted to give herself a goal to strive for, something to strive for.
Of course, this was Sasuke's own imagination; Yoru didn't have such thoughts.
He didn't care whether Sasuke surpassed him.
I don't care whether he can surpass me or not; I just don't bother him.
Sasuke felt that Yoru was doing it for his own good because he trained according to Yoru's plan and indeed improved his strength from Chunin to Jonin in just a few months.
This improvement was greater than the improvement he achieved during his six years at the Ninja Academy.
That's why he felt that Ye Yu was lying to him for his own good.
Naruto smiled wryly and said, "That guy lied to me too. He said that once I mastered the Nine-Tails' power, I would surpass him."
"It made me so excited before, and I kept dreaming that if I mastered the Nine-Tails, I would surpass him."
It was only then that Naruto realized he had definitely been tricked by Yoru.
The idea that he surpasses him is utter nonsense.
He could even tame the Nine-Tails. Even if he mastered the Nine-Tails' power, how could he possibly surpass Yoru?
"This big liar, this big conman."
Of course, if Naruto fully masters the power of the Nine-Tails, that would be Kurama Mode. If he also receives the power from the Sage of Six Paths, then he would have Six Paths level strength.
At least for now, Yoru is definitely no match for him.
If Ye Yu were to unleash his full power now, even a Kage-level opponent would no longer be a match for him.
Moreover, Yoru's ninjutsu is too outrageous; it's completely unimaginable for ordinary ninjas.
With his Flying Thunder God Technique, as long as he has chakra, he can basically go wherever he wants within a radius of tens of kilometers, and moving is just a matter of a thought.
There is no need to mark the Flying Thunder God technique in advance.
With those powerful ninjutsu, he now possesses strength surpassing that of a Kage.
He simply felt that he only had the strength of an elite Jonin.
But he had already taken down several elite Jonin.
However, they did not realize that his strength might have already surpassed that of an elite Jonin.
After all, if he wanted to, even elite Jonin wouldn't have a chance to fight back.
