Jiraiya looked at the other person's back, feeling lost in his heart.
"Master Toad!"
"Lustful fairy!"
Jiraiya looked up and saw Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto, each holding a cake, coming over with a smile on their face and greeting him enthusiastically.
At this time, the wedding was coming to an end.
Everyone began to move around casually.
A row of tables were neatly arranged on the grass, with a variety of pastries on them for the guests to enjoy.
"Wow! You guys started eating so quickly!"
After seeing his disciple, Jiraiya returned to his normal self, smiling heartily.
"Hokage-sama, what you mentioned last time was about equipping Anbu with ninja dogs."
Inuzuka Kiba looked serious and was peeking from behind.
"Ah, ah, this, this, we are indeed in the process of serious investigation."
"How about you talk to my mother? She is over there."
Inuzuka Kiba squeezed in front of Jiraiya and pointed to the side and front.
"Hokage-sama."
Inuzuka Tsume, unlike his usual wild and straightforward appearance, was bowing politely.
"This"
Just when Jiraiya was hesitating.
Suddenly, Shiranui Genma and Tamashiri walked in quickly from outside the venue.
The two were still wearing the standard green multi-pocket vest jonin uniform, which was obviously different from most of the guests in the venue who were wearing formal attire.
"Lord Hokage!"
The two of them came straight to Jiraiya and stopped, bending down and cupping their hands, as if they had something important to report.
"But it doesn't matter."
Jiraiya looked at the people around him and nodded.
"This"
Shiranui Genma glanced at the surrounding environment, hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and said in as low a voice as possible:
"Hyuga Neji of the Hyuga clan defected and fled the village last night."
"!"
"!"
Suddenly, the surrounding voices became quiet.
Everyone gasped, shocked and speechless by the news.
Only, Uchiha Sasuke didn't react at all.
His face was like a lake, as if he didn't hear anything.
Still using the small spoon in his hand, he continued to eat the piece of cake on his plate.
However, the sweet cream tastes like chewing wax when you eat it in your mouth.
Many years later, looking back on this moment, the fate of many people was changed by this moment.
"In the late spring of Konoha 65, Hyuga Neji walked northward alone. He used his body as bait and asked Otoyin to join the crowd."
At that time, he was sixteen years old.
Chapter 167 Kill without mercy
After hearing the news, Jiraiya couldn't hide his shock and immediately looked at Uchiha Sasuke.
The people around him gradually recovered from their shock and let out various exclamations and sighs.
"Oh my god."
"how so."
"Are you kidding me?"
Haruno Sakura, Inuzuka Kiba, Uzumaki Naruto and others either covered their mouths or held their heads, expressing their disbelief.
"Hokage-sama, according to eyewitness information, the traitor Ninja Hyuuga Neji ran away at midnight last night. If we chase him now, we may still have enough time. You see."
Seeing that Jiraiya didn't make any statement, Shiranui Genma couldn't hide his anxiety and took a step forward.
He said in as low a voice as possible.
At this time, Jiraiya had recovered from the shock.
His tone was calm, his face was as usual, he nodded and said:
"This is not the place to talk. You go back to the Hokage Building first. I will be there later."
"Yes."
Hearing Jirai's words, Shiranui Genma and Tamashiri seemed to have found their backbone instantly, no longer panicked, and left.
Seeing the two leaving the venue, Jiraiya turned around again and comforted the remaining people present:
"It's not a big deal. You guys, please keep quiet and don't disturb other people's good lives."
After saying that, just as he was about to leave, Jiraiya thought of something else.
Stopping his movements, he specifically said to Uzumaki Naruto:
"If you really can't bear it, just find an excuse and leave."
At this time, Naruto was still in a state of disbelief and nodded blankly, as if he had not yet digested the sudden news.
Jiraiya turned and left, smiling and greeting the other guests at the wedding, and walked all the way to Tsunade, saying goodbye calmly:
"There are some emergencies that need to be dealt with, so I'll go back first."
"What's going on? Is it serious?"
Tsunade frowned, puzzled.
Today is Shizune's big day, and of course, it's also his own big day.
I thought that Jiraiya would accompany him until the end, but he didn't expect that he would leave without even bothering to eat lunch.
Of course, Tsunade was used to this.
She knew that in Jiraiya's heart, the village and peace had always been far more important than herself.
Therefore, disappointment is out of the question.
More importantly, he was worried about the "emergency situation" that Jiraiya called.
"Don't worry. Nothing can defeat me. I don't care about north, south, east or west. I am an invincible handsome man in the world~"
Jiraiya grinned, patted Tsunade's arm, and strode out.
However, after walking out of Tsunade's sight, Jiraiya, who was grinning foolishly, suddenly had a frosty expression on his face, and became solemn.
"Go back with me."
When passing by Sasuke, Jiraiya kept walking and said.
As if he had expected it, Uchiha Sasuke immediately put down the cake paper plate and followed him expressionlessly.
-
"Does Hyuga Neji's so-called defection have anything to do with you?"
Konoha, Hokage Building, in Hokage's office.
Jiraiya asked straight to the point, sitting behind his desk.
"There are relationships."
Uchiha Sasuke nodded and admitted frankly.
Sure enough, my guess was correct.
On weekdays, the two of them get along very closely.
Now, Sasuke just told him that he wanted to go undercover, and right after that, Neji followed him and defected. How could it be such a coincidence?
"So, Neji is your 'wiggle room'? Is this your plan??"
Seeing Sasuke admit it directly, Jiraiya felt that the anger in his heart was even more difficult to suppress.
"Yes, but not entirely."
Uchiha Sasuke, neither humble nor arrogant, continued to answer.
"Why didn't you discuss it with me in advance?!"
Jiraiya knocked on the table, very annoyed at Sasuke's unauthorized actions.
"I'm sorry, I'll discuss it with you now."
Sasuke's face was expressionless, and he bowed his head to admit his mistake very simply.
"Huh? Damn you."
Uchiha Sasuke's unreasonable answer made Jiraiya speechless for a moment.
I saw him laughing in anger, not knowing what to say for a moment, and this disciple immediately made him lose his temper.
"I originally wanted to tell you last night. But Sister Shizune's wedding is today, and I don't want to spoil the fun. But, I didn't expect Neji to act so quickly.
"Besides, you see, this matter is a big deal, and your reaction just now is indeed very real and credible. If you had known the situation in advance, you might not have such a realistic effect."
Seeing Jiraiya smile, Sasuke quickly struck while the iron was hot and comforted:
