Chapter 81, Open Cards

"You knew I would come here?"

Jiraiya was taken aback and looked at Fukasaku in surprise.

"Yes, the Toad Sage prophesied that a lost boy would come here, and this boy would gain great power here."

Fukasaku nodded and said to Jiraiya.

"Great power? Me?"

Jiraiya was taken aback, pointed at himself with a finger, and an unconscious smile of joy appeared on his face.

What does Jiraiya crave most now?

Of course, it's power.

As long as he has enough power, he can fight alongside Raijin and the others!

Thinking of this, Jiraiya's heart became hot.

"Yes."

Fukasaku slowly nodded.

"Now, Start practicing."

After a pause, Fukasaku continued to say to Jiraiya.

"Practice? Does it require a long time of practice?"

Jiraiya was taken aback and asked Fukasaku.

"Don't worry, I will send a frog to inform Konohagakure."

Fukasaku saw what Jiraiya was worried about at a glance and spoke to dispel Jiraiya's worries.

"Then let's start!"

Jiraiya said enthusiastically.

...

"Shadow clone..."

Muramasa looked at the few people in front of him who disappeared into smoke, and the veins on his forehead were faintly beating.

Until now, the bodies of Sarutobi Hiruzen and his party have not appeared, Muramasa can almost be sure that Sarutobi Hiruzen has now entered the territory of the Land of Moon.

Apart from this possibility, Muramasa really can't figure out what the purpose of Sarutobi Hiruzen and their action this time is.

It can't be just to play a joke on him, can it?

"Hoo~"

He let out a soft sigh, forcing himself to calm down.

Muramasa know that Sarutobi Hiruzen is targeting him.

So basically, there's no need to worry about Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others messing around on the battlefield.

After all, compared to helping Kumogakure deal with Purple Lightning, Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others would probably prefer to see Kumogakure and Purple Lightning both suffer.

So, what are they doing in the Land of Moon?

Are they trying to force me to reveal my flaws?

Muramasa pondered, so where would Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others go?

When this question appeared in Muramasa's heart, the answer also emerged.

The Land of Moon is, after all, the base of Purple Lightning, Muramasa dares not say how many ninjas in the country are clear.

But for a target as big as Uchiha, Muramasa couldn't possibly not know.

"Hu~"

Slowly exhaling a breath, Muramasa turned around and left with his people.

...

"Going to Uchiha's trading company is pretty good, but, can Purple Lightning really not guess that we will go to Uchiha's trading company?"

On the way, Tsunade asked Raijin with some hesitation.

"If they guessed it, what can they do? Rush in and kill me?"

Raijin laughed lightly and retorted to Tsunade.

"But Purple Lightning only needs to send people to keep an eye on us, and we can't do anything."

Tsunade pondered slightly and said to Raijin.

"So what can we do now?"

Raijin spread his hands and asked Tsunade.

"Do you have to ask me one question before you say one?"

Tsunade pursed her lips slightly, silently glanced at Raijin, and asked without answering.

"Sigh..."

Raijin silently glanced at Tsunade, sighed somewhat helplessly.

This Tsunade, oh, she's good-looking, she'll have a good figure in the future, her family background is good, she's smart, and she's very talented, the only flaw is this temper...

But where in this world is there a perfect person?

Some girls might have a good temper, but they definitely have all kinds of flaws.

After organizing his thought, Raijin explained to Tsunade.

"Even if we don't go to Uchiha's trading company, we definitely need to hide ourselves as much as possible in the Land of Moon, rather than being hunted down outside, it's better to play our cards right from the start.

Even if Purple Lightning knows that we are in Uchiha's trading company, what can they do?

As for sending people to keep an eye on us, how many people can they send?

On the one hand, Purple Lightning has to deal with the pressure of Kumogakure, on the other hand, it has to deal with the pressure of the other three hidden villages. During this period, wouldn't it be nice for us to have a cup of tea and soak in the warmth of Izumi?"

At this point, Raijin paused and continued to say to Tsunade.

"In fact, this mission didn't have any good tactics to apply from the beginning, Muramasa knows that our target is him, and even who is going to kill him he probably has enough psychological preparation. Such a target is really too difficult to kill, so, just wait for them to fight and both suffer, then we can enter the field. Even if we make the worst plan, this time Purple Lightning wins, Kumogakure changes hands, then, even if the mission fails, what can we do? It might be a better result for Konohagakure."

"Very unique insights."

As Raijin's words fell, Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke.

Obviously, Raijin has now completely jumped out of the identity of a ninja and is observing this matter as a bystander.

Perhaps, it can also be said that Raijin is thinking about the problem from the perspective of Hokage.

"Hmph! You're really smart!"

Feeling her intelligence insulted and thus becoming angry, Tsunade suddenly pounced on Raijin's back, her slender but very strong arms immediately wrapped around Raijin's neck.

A sense of suffocation flooded into his mind, and Raijin's body subconsciously leaned back.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Tsunade! Don't go too far!"

Raijin's two hands held Tsunade's legs, his head directly leaning on Tsunade's chest, in this position, the force on his neck became almost non-existent.

"What's wrong with me going too far? Hmm? Can't I?"

Tsunade leaned into Raijin's face, Raijin subconsciously dodged, and Tsunade continued to lean in.

"Tsunade, you were the one who chased after me back then."

Feeling the moist sensation on his cheek, Raijin didn't dodge anymore, partly because there wasn't enough space, and partly because this feeling was quite comfortable.

"So? Are you reminding me to enjoy you more? Hmm?"

Tsunade's eyes narrowed as she heard this, she leaned into Raijin's ear and asked softly.

"So, please be sure to treat me well, otherwise..."

Raijin's chin lifted slightly, the words behind were not finished, leaving Tsunade with plenty of room for imagination.

"Or what? Hmm?"

Tsunade's one hand was pulling at Raijin's shoulder, and the other hand was touching Raijin's face. With a gentle force, Tsunade turned Raijin's face towards her, speaking to Raijin while turning.

"Let me kiss you."

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Raijin immediately refused Tsunade's impolite request without any hesitation.

The two immediately entered a meaningless tug-of-war.

Actually, it doesn't matter whether they kiss or not, the main thing is to enjoy the process of this interaction, which is quite a happy thing for both of them.

Orochimaru and Sarutobi Hiruzen, who were hurrying on the road ahead, looked at each other, and then both turned their heads away somewhat helplessly.
