Chapter 470 The ability to see the essence of things clearly (Added 45 for Grandmaster_sasori_!)
After a few days passed, the rumor that was deliberately released at that time has become more and more intense, and it seems that the direction of the wind is also developing in a good direction.
But Qingyu, who was in the storm, began to live in seclusion and would never show up easily.
No one knows better than him that going too far is never enough.
All the arrangements he had made in the past have yielded good results at this moment. Even if he doesn't show up, there will be people cheering for him, so the most important thing at this time is to keep a low profile!
The more you do, the more mistakes you make, and the more you do, the more mistakes you make.
At this juncture, what he could do has already been done, so as long as he doesn't make mistakes, he has a half chance of winning this war without gunpowder.
It wasn't that he was being modest, but that he really regarded Jiraiya as a powerful rival.
As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and a rotten ship still has three pounds of nails.
He was not so far gone that he looked down on Jiraiya.
What's more, his greatest advantage is not what he shows, but Jiraiya's 'non-dispute'!
Jiraiya, who has been silent and has no interest in the position of Hokage, is his biggest advantage!
In the political game, the best way to win is not to be strong, but to directly defeat your competitors.
Otherwise, everything is subject to eventuality, so how can anything be 100%?
But before he could find Jiraiya, Jiraiya came to the door first...
. . . . . . . . . .
After Xianglin was serving tea and water, someone drove her away with a look.
"Hmph~"
Little Loli may have become familiar with him recently and figured out his character, so that the timid and fearful side gradually disappeared, and she even became bolder and dared to show his face.
It’s really three days without a roof over my head!
While Qingyu motioned for Jiraiya to drink tea, he was thinking about how to teach this disobedient little loli a lesson.
He still remembers that when he was a child, he would be stripped of his pants and beaten...
After a cup of hot tea, the two of them looked at each other in silence.
Finally, Jiraiya couldn't help but said: "Actually, I have no interest in the position of Hokage. On the contrary, you make me very interested."
If anyone else had said these words, Qingyu would definitely spit in his face, but he believed what Jiraiya said!
However, before he knew the purpose of Jiraiya's visit, he still joked cautiously: "When Jiraiya-sama became famous in the ninja world, I didn't know whether he was born, so although I don't know Whatever aspect of me Jiraiya-sama is interested in, I can go out and brag about it to others."
"Haha, the Yinomiya Jounin is really good at joking. You are going to become Hokage, why bother bragging about this?"
"Listening to Jiraiya-sama's wishes, it seems that he has the intention to fulfill his wishes?"
Jiraiya was also unambiguous and nodded directly: "Originally, I came back this time to mourn Teacher Sarutobi, and then I was going to set off to hunt down Orochimaru. However, the two elders kept persuading me to stay. Being the Hokage was not my intention. .”
"But it is precisely because I stayed that I was able to witness the rise of a young talent."
"I heard your name many times when I was traveling. I thought the rumors were exaggerated. But after I came back, everyone who mentioned you in front of me was full of praise for you, so I I took the past few days to investigate your deeds and found that you are indeed as rumored."
"What are the rumors about?" Qingyu refilled a cup of tea for him, and then asked with a smile.
"He is extremely talented and works hard to make progress. Although he is often reckless, he is also a very passionate young man."
"Jiraiya-sama, are you praising me? I didn't know I had so many advantages." Qingyu said with a smile that he didn't care about.
"Praise? That's right, but I also discovered a lot of unusual things. Can you help me clear up my doubts?"
Qingyu directly made a gesture of invitation, and at the same time secretly became vigilant, wondering what Jiraiya had discovered.
"Does Danzo's disappearance have anything to do with you?"
"Danzo-sama? How could the disappearance of Danzo-sama be related to me? Jiraiya-sama can't throw such dirty water on me just because you and I are competitors."
Jiraiya has been watching Qingyu's expression. Although he has not found any flaws, his intuition tells him that Danzo's disappearance is likely to be related to him.
"Just asking casually, but as far as I know, Danzo seems to have targeted you again and again, and even sent assassins to harm the entire Mikawa class, but they were unsuccessful in the end. With your character, haven't you thought about revenge? ?”
It is not difficult at all for Jiraiya's position to know these things, not to mention that there are two old helpers who have been helping to find other 'weaknesses' of Qingyu behind the scenes.
But Qingyu is not worried about this at all, because Danzo's death really has nothing to do with him.
It was the Akatsuki organization that took action, what does it have to do with him?
So he couldn't help but show a hint of anger, "Now that Jiraiya-sama has mentioned this matter, I won't hide it anymore. I have indeed thought about it, but Danzo has a high position, and the Japanese Master Zhan has always been on the side, so in the end he had no choice but to settle the matter."
"Furthermore, I had been in the village when Danzo disappeared. I didn't know that Danzo had left Konoha until I went to Hiruzen-sama to ask for an explanation. Even if I really want to do something, I have to know where Danzo went. ? Besides, I was not even a Jonin at that time, and a few members of the Gen almost killed me, so Jiraiya-sama might have overestimated me."
"Is Lord Jiraiya satisfied with this explanation?"
Jiraiya nodded. This was what he couldn't figure out after realizing something was wrong, unless another group of powerful forces intervened...
This is even more impossible.
Maybe it's really a coincidence, after all, Danzo has so many enemies.
Jiraiya no longer dwelled on this matter, but asked about other things, "For Uchiha Itachi to become the leader of the Uchiha clan, you should be the one who was behind it, right?"
Qingyu was really shocked now. How long had this guy Jiraiya been back? How could he actually be seen in what happened so long ago?
Is this the ability to see the essence of things clearly or is it intuition? It's really scary.
But he would definitely not admit such a thing.
So he shook his head directly, "Itachi just asked me to do a small favor, not to mention giving advice."
But Jiraiya looked at him deeply, because Jiraiya was very suspicious that the two high-level consultants, Uchiha Fugaku and Hinata Hizashi, were the 'backstage' that this guy pushed up by leveraging Uchiha's influence!
All preparations are to become Hokage, this is his real plan.
Although Jiraiya didn't believe that a young man who was "reckless and causing trouble" could be so scheming and had laid out such a plan many years ago.
But the surprise that the meeting brought to him that day, and the more he learned about it afterwards, and the more he thought about it... the possibility he analyzed made it difficult for him to believe that the other party had shown him to be harmless to humans and animals!
So what is the truth?
Gradually, an uneasiness surrounded his heart, lingering, but he couldn't help but think about it.
That's why he took the initiative to come over and want to find out.
If it turns out that he thought too much, then it doesn't matter if he quits.
But if the other party really has a problem, then he must figure it out.
