Chapter 263: Hanzo Died 7-8 Years Ago!
Chapter 263: Hanzo Died 7-8 Years Ago!
Amegakure’s Make-Out Club Battle.
Jiraiya was a little tired.
After Jiraiya arrived at the Make-Out Club Battle store, he ordered a plump woman called the Tezuna. As a result, this woman had been praising Uehara since she came.
“If not for Uehara-sama, the village wouldn’t be like this. Ever since Uehara-sama came, more and more ninjas joined Amegakure. Only then did the village gradually become more and more prosperous!”
“… Oh.”
At this moment, the joys and sorrows of human beings were not interlinked. Jiraiya only felt that the girl pouring wine next to him was a little noisy. It was not like he did not know Uehara.
The plump woman saw Jiraiya’s sleepiness and chuckled, “Customer, what’s wrong? Are you sleepy?”
“I’m actually fine.”
Jiraiya swirled the wine glass in his hand and asked nonchalantly, “The leader of this village is called Hanzo, right? Does he trust Uehara that much?”
“What did you say?”
“I say, the leader of this village seems to be called Hanzo…”
“Shh!”
Tezuna suddenly raised a finger and said in a deep voice, “Customer, this name is not something that can be mentioned here. What if other people report it to Lady Angel…”
“Lady Angel?”
“That’s right, Lady Angel is Uehara-sama’s Sensei.”
Tesuna waved her hand in a hurry and said softly, “If you talk about that name here, when Lady Angel finds out, she will never let you go!”
“Oh, can’t you mention the name Hanzo…”
Jiraiya touched his chin and began to think again.
If he remembered correctly, Kakashi also vaguely mentioned that Uehara’s Sensei was Amegakure higher-ups, who were enough to affect Hanzo’s decision.
He really didn’t expect it.
Jiraiya lowered his head and frowned as he pondered. Amegakure had forbidden anyone from talking about Hanzo, and they were gradually worshipping a ninja called Angel and Uehara. It made people feel very strange. Was Hanzo too cautious?
“In fact, the so-called Hanzo was already dead.”
The plump woman called Tezuna suddenly approached Jiraiya, covered her lips and whispered, “My husband is a ninja of the village. I heard my husband mention that Hanzo was personally killed by Uehara-sama, and his corpse was hung on the high tower to show the public!”
“Pfft!”
Jiraiya, who was originally slowly drinking wine, suddenly spat out a mouthful of wine when he heard the words of this woman!
“What did you say? Do you already have a husband?”
After saying this, Jiraiya shook his head and said something more important, “Wait a minute… You just said that Uehara killed Hanzo? And Uehara hung his body up to show the public?”
Really?
I don’t believe it!
How was this possible?
What the hell was going on?
How could such a thing happen?
Uehara had always been the most loyal Ninja to Hanzo. He didn’t even hesitate to go against his own conscience. Every time, he would follow Hanzo’s orders with a solemn face. He even helped Hanzo search for a longevity treasure.
If Uehara really killed Hanzo, this news was as shocking as the death of Hokage in the hand of his direct disciple!
Moreover, Hanzo was a Ninja Demigod!
No, was it a genjutsu?
Jiraiya’s expression suddenly changed. He subconsciously raised his finger and slowly circulated the chakra in his body. This was the method to break genjutsu.
This was not a genjutsu. He had not heard wrongly earlier.
After letting out a sigh of relief, Jiraiya’s expression gradually became incomparably ugly. He never expected that after entering Amegakure, he would obtain such a world-shaking secret!
If not for the fact that he had infiltrated Amegakure today, Jiraiya wouldn’t even know how that Hanzo-sama was like.
Uehara, who had always been loyal and devoted to Hanzo, had actually killed Hanzo!
“When had this happened?”
Jiraiya’s expression gradually calmed down. He suppressed the shock in his heart. He wanted to continue to inquire about the information, hoping that Hanzo had only been murdered during this period of time.
Could it be…
Uehara felt that Hanzo’s rule was corrupted, which was why he killed him?
Or was it for the sake of seizing power?
That little guy Uehara doesn’t look like this kind of person at all. After all, Konoha has expressed their support for him to become the leader of Amegakure many times, but Uehara has never been tempted.
However, Tezuna shook her head, lowered her head and thought for a while, then said, “It seems to be seven or eight years ago, right? At that time, Amegakure was actually very strict. Every day was chaotic. It was when Uehara-sama killed Hanzo that brought the current peace!”
“…”
Bastard…
Seven or eight years ago…
Jiraiya’s palm trembled slightly.
At this moment, he had the urge to crush the wine cup.
Uehara had already killed Hanzo seven or eight years ago!
The bit of admiration Jiraiya had for Uehara instantly disappeared, and a conspiracy theory of Uehara spread all over Jiraiya’s body.
That little brat… really hid it well!
To be honest, Jiraiya was a little depressed.
At this moment, Jiraiya felt like his three views were about to collapse.
How did that fellow, Uehara, tell about his loyalty to Hanzo in front of them without changing his face, and even maintain it for so many years!
He killed Hanzo seven or eight years ago!
This meant that everything Uehara said was a lie!
In the past few years, Uehara usually acted in the name of Hanzo..
Once in the negotiation, Uehara would definitely open his mouth and say Hanzo’s name.
Tsunade had expressed her envy more than once that Hanzo had such a loyal and powerful genius Ninja, especially Uehara who was good at medical ninjutsu.
Damn…
This guy was too good at acting!
If the Icha Icha Paradise was made into a movie or TV series, Uehara could definitely act as the male lead!
Jiraiya could not help but think of Hanzo.
In the past few years, Tsunade had been cursing and swearing about Hanzo. Before he set off, Tsunade was still criticizing Hanzo for not caring about the big picture.
The things that Hanzo does was always unsatisfactory. In fact, everyone in Konoha thinks that it would be good if Uehara became Amegakure’s leader…
Now that he thinks about it…
I’m really f*cking sorry for Hanzo!
Amegakure was a scam, a scam hosted by Uehara. No wonder Amegakure’s messenger has always been Uehara. Was he worried that others will leak the information?
This was indeed shocking.
No, it should be said that it was really too shocking!
Jiraiya began to recall again, why had no one ever discovered that Hanzo had been killed?
Uehara had clearly mentioned it so many times, but he had not revealed any flaws. Was it the name of Ninja Demigod that made them think that this would never happen?
When this guy was still in the Chunin Exam, he innocently talked about how difficult the war between Amegakure and Akatsuki was, and with a solemn face, he said that he could not go against the order of his leader, Hanzo, no matter what!
Jiraiya remembered the scenes of Uehara in the past…
“I am someone that Hanzo-sama trusts very much!”
“I will never go against Hanzo-sama’s order!”
“Without this agreement, how can I face Hanzo-sama!”
“Our leader is the Ninja Demigod Hanzo-sama!”
“No one can defeat Hanzo-sama. He can defeat Akatsuki’s organization by himself and chase them out of Country of Rain!”
Now…
He really wanted to curse.
If Hanzo had been killed seven or eight years ago, everything that happened afterward, such as assassinating Third, snatching the land in the Country of Grass, attacking Akatsuki’s organization, and so on. All of Amegakure’s actions were actually made by Uehara and that angel.
A truly terrifying person that… Uehara Naraku!
Jiraiya slowly controlled the shock on his face, and a wave of admiration and shock arose in his heart. After all, during the most dangerous time of the battle, Uehara could still say with a straight face that he could not let Hanzo down
Uehara was really a talent.
The water in the ninja world was very deep.
Many secrets were hidden.
However, Uehara kept talking about Hanzo, but he did not reveal any flaws.
What an outstanding person he was…!
Others sneaked in to steal information or something in disguise, but that little brat actually stole information openly without anyone noticing.
However, Amegakure must have been invaded more than once in so many years. Why has no one discovered this secret?
Jiraiya began to ponder this question.
Was it because the other ninjas who sneaked into Amegakure were all killed?
If he left now, would he be the first person to successfully escape from Amegakure? If he did not leave, what danger would he encounter?
But he was already here…
Jiraiya faintly felt that if he continued to investigate, there would definitely be more gains. Uehara definitely hid more than this!
That little brat…
His plot must be very big.
After all, Amegakure had covered up the truth that Hanzo had died a long time ago. Moreover, he uses many methods to hide this secret.
“Tezuna, your husband has sent a message!”
The plump woman sitting next to Jiraiya could not help but frown when she heard someone shouting outside, “What? Has my husband sent a letter? Didn’t he say that he was going to patrol the lowest level of the village today?”
“…”
After Jiraiya heard Tezuna’s nagging, he left the store. The information he had gathered here was still too little. It was better to catch a ninja and interrogate him.
At the same time, he also needed to confirm if Tezuna was telling the truth.
In any case, the information provided by a woman from an Adult Entertainment Shop was too lacking. Should he catch a ninja to ask for more information?
Inside the tea room.
Uehara slowly drank his tea and watched Jiraiya walk out of the shop with an ugly expression. Jiraiya then quickly sneaked into Amegakure’s underground pipeline area.
“It seems that you know a part of the truth!”
Uehara smiled and put down the teacup in his hand. He said softly, “But how much truth do you know? Even if you think you have found a lot of information, you have only seen the tip of the iceberg…”
Uehara shook his head slowly and ordered loudly, “Write down today’s tea money and send the bill to Lady Angel’s office.”
“Yes, Uehara-sama.”
The waiter in the teahouse nodded hurriedly.
Most of Amegakure’s villagers were used to this matter, and all of Uehara’s expenses in the village would be paid by Lady Angel.
Uehara nodded and took an umbrella from the waiter. He walked into Amegakure and walked to the underground pipeline area.
Just as Uehara was walking on the street, a paper crane landed on his shoulder. Konan’s voice came out, “Uehara, can you confirm Jiraiya-sensei’s position?”
“Yes.”
Uehara nodded and said softly, “Jiraiya-sama just came out of the Adult Entertainment Shop in the village and is rushing to the underground pipeline area. There are no villagers there. We can get rid of him there.”
“…”
The Paper Crane was silent for a while.
A moment later, groups of paper cranes overlapped each other and flew over. They appeared next to Uehara and quickly formed the appearance of Konan.
Konan looked up at the signboard of the store. She frowned and hid under Uehara’s umbrella.
“Store like this in the village must be banned.”
“Uh…”
Uehara shook his head helplessly and leaned close to Konan’s shoulder to prevent the rain from wetting her. He whispered, “Let’s go see Jiraiya-sama first! Konan-sensei haven’t seen him for a long time, right?”
“Well…”
A trace of disappointment flashed across Konan’s face.
The three years he had studied under Jiraiya back then were actually very happy and relaxed because they didn’t have to worry about being starved or being in too much danger.
Moreover, Jiraiya was a very kind person to his student.
If not for the sake of keeping the secret of Amegakure and Akatsuki’s organization, Konan really didn’t want to fight against his own Sensei.
“Alright, let’s go!”
Uehara reached out his hand and wiped the water droplets off Konan’s hair. He chuckled and said, “It won’t be that easy to deal with Jiraiya-sama!”
Moreover, with him here, it would be even more difficult.
