Chapter 117 Here I Come (Subscribe)
"Old man, you're looking for me?"

When Jiu Xing showed up in the Hokage's office, he immediately felt that Sarutobi Hiruzen was different.

Kagura's mind's eye combined with the Nine-Tailed Fox's ability to sense good and evil can almost achieve the effect of seeing into people's hearts.

He felt that the chakra of Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him was completely different from the iron-like strength of the past.

Now Sarutobi Hiruzen's chakra is like a piece of red-hot iron.

Extremely hot, extremely scorching.

Once you touch it, you will burn yourself instantly.

"Old man, are you okay?"

Jiu Xing looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him and spoke hesitantly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen finally woke up from his thoughts. He looked at Jiu Xing with burning eyes and said:

"Do you know the information about the battlefield in River Country?"

Jiu Xing nodded upon hearing this.

This was the first victory, and Sarutobi Hiruzen did not hide it. He directly informed the whole village to boost morale.

Of course, Xun’s brilliant performance was indispensable. Just like the original plot, the title of Golden Flash was given to this seventeen-year-old girl.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the young man in front of him who brought war and opportunities to Konoha.

"Jiu Xing, get ready."

These five simple words made Jiu Xing stunned and his face became serious.

Are you planning to let yourself take the stage?

How long has the war been going on?
Three days? Five days?
Is it too fast?

As if he could see through Kyuuki's doubts, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up, and an aura of intimidation instantly burst out from his seemingly thin body.

This is the aura that only belongs to those who have been in high positions and hold great power for many years.

No matter how powerful Jiu Xing is, as long as he does not touch this kind of power, he will never be able to possess this kind of momentum.

"The situation on the four battlefields is currently very good. That old fellow, Ohnoki, will never sit still and wait for death."

Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have noticed something was wrong with Kyuuki, and his tone softened, but his usually cloudy eyes were now unusually clear, and even revealed a hint of fire.

"The Iwagakure Village still has enough forces that have not been dispatched."

"Thousands of ninjas and two tailed beasts, but none of them took action."

"Now, with only 4,000 ninjas, we have already slowed down Konoha's pace."

"It's no exaggeration to call Iwagakure the number one ninja village under Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone was firm, even vaguely excited.

"so……"

Jiu Xing looked serious and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"So, the first to strike is the strongest, and the last to strike will suffer!"

"Since that old man Ohnoki wants to wait for others to get impatient first!"

"Then let's break that old guy's hand first!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen is not talking about me, he is talking about us!
This means that he is ready to take the stage himself!

With the situation so good, he didn't hesitate at all!

Be the first to break the deadlock!

Looking at the imposing Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him, Jiu Xing realized that the Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him, who was almost entering old age, was not just a so-called ninjutsu doctor.

When he was young, he was even called a ninja hero!
A heroic person is one who is strong!

"Old man, if you have this intention, then I can't just sit there and watch."

Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen who was laughing ferociously, Jiu Xing also laughed not to be outdone.

He has never been a law-abiding guy.

It has always been like this since I was a child.

However, Jiu Xing did not expect that Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was already in his fifties, still had such courage.

Is it because I gave him confidence?

But it’s better this way. It’s much better to chase after someone and beat them up than to fight back after being beaten up.

"Then when do we set off?"

Jiu Xing looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him and said:

Sarutobi Hiruzen took out his pipe slowly, lit it skillfully, took a deep breath, and the light blue smoke came out of his mouth, making it difficult for Jiu Xing to see his eyes clearly.

However, even without looking, Jiu Xing knew that those were a pair of eyes burning with fire. "Speed ​​is of the essence in war!"

"Right now!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said almost decisively.

"Okay, send someone to take care of Kakashi, we'll leave now."

Jiu Xing spoke immediately.

"Old man, do you need anything to prepare?"

"I'll leave a letter here. All village affairs will be handed over to Yan and Xiaochun during this period."

Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly finished the contents of the letter, and finally left six big words on the envelope: "From Hokage, To the Hokage".

After doing all this, the old and the young looked at each other and smiled, both revealing a smile that spoke for itself.

Hashirama Senju, who was inside the necklace, observed all this silently.

With his current strength, he can't stop this at all.

He felt that Monkey was now even more radical than Tobirama.

Grass Country Battlefield

Orochimaru was a little irritated now.

Naturally, he also received information about the battlefield in River Country, which was naturally a good thing for Konoha.

But Orochimaru has always been proud. He grew up with Tsunade and Jiraiya, and he is the best in everything he does.

Now that Tsunade has taken the lead, he naturally refuses to admit defeat.

With Orochimaru's vision, he naturally knew that the two sides were just testing each other and the real battle had not yet come.

But the pride in his heart made him unable to calm down.

However, Jiraiya outside the central army tent suddenly started shouting, which made his already irritable heart even more irritable.

"Jiraiya, shut up!"

Orochimaru couldn't help but curse.

"Orochimaru!"

"Look who's here!"

Jiraiya didn't care about Orochimaru's attitude towards him. In his opinion, this was commonplace.

Jiraiya appeared in front of Orochimaru, pulling a somewhat thin man.

Orochimaru couldn't help but open his mouth slightly when looking at that man.

"teacher……"

The person who appeared in front of him was none other than Sarutobi Hiruzen!

The Third Hokage of Konoha!

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen was wearing a black ninja uniform and an iron helmet on his head.

Does this mean that the teacher feels that the battle is not going well and plans to take part in the battle himself?
Orochimaru thought so subconsciously.

"Orochimaru, you have done a good job during this period."

The first thing Sarutobi Hiruzen said was to praise Orochimaru.

They were able to hold off the 4,000 men of the Iwagakure with only 3,000 men and maintain the front line without any retreat.

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's opinion, this is already excellent.

After all, the combined ninjutsu of the Iwagakure Village is second to none in the entire ninja world, especially in this kind of war between two armies.

Orochimaru's excellence is even more precious.

"teacher……"

Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen had no intention of blaming him, but instead praised him highly, Orochimaru was so moved that he didn't know what to say.

“But things are different now.”

"Instead of passively counterattacking, it is better to take the initiative."

Sarutobi Hiruzen gave a light laugh.

"So, here I am."

At this moment, Orochimaru seemed to see the invincible ninja again.

　I have finished posting the drafts. I was dragged out by my friends to drink yesterday and didn't sleep all night. I still worked overtime to finish these two chapters. I will see if I can write more tonight.
