Naruto: Are you worthy of being called Sage Mode?

Sarutobi Hiruzen has been concentrating on training in the newly built wooden house these days.

The speed of cultivation in the Qi Refining Stage is still very fast. In his previous life, he had been at the peak of Qi Refining for decades and already knew everything about the Qi Refining Stage.

The sufficient spiritual energy in the ninja world has allowed Hiruzen Sarutobi to reach the third level of Qi refining. After the ninth level of Qi refining, he can build the foundation.

The strength of the shadow level is almost similar to that of the foundation building stage, but it also depends on the level of the foundation building monk.

If you are a foundation-building monk with a heritage from a large sect, it is simple to deal with the shadow-level strong men.

For ordinary foundation-building monks, it depends on the specific situation.

After all, the lower limit of ninjas is relatively low, and some secret techniques involve the field of rules, which is very unreasonable.

But for immortal cultivators, the foundation building period has just begun, and the upper limit is countless times that of ninjas.

During this time, the entire village had forgotten about him as the third generation.

Perhaps in the hearts of most people, the best Sandaime Hokage is the dead Sandaime Hokage.

Jiraiya and Tsunade returned to the village together, and the two had constant friction along the way.

However, they still returned to the village smoothly. Even if Tsunade had hemophobia, they could still walk sideways in the entire ninja world with their strength.

When they were about to arrive at Konoha Village, they already saw the welcoming team. Standing at the front of the team was the Fifth Hokage Orochimaru.

I have to say that after putting on Hokage's clothes, Orochimaru's temperament changed.

It has been nearly half a month since he became Hokage. Orochimaru is used to it, and the village is also used to the new Hokage.

It was Nara Shikaku's opinion to welcome Jiraiya and Tsunade this time.

Orochimaru discussed many ideas with him, but these required Jiraiya and Tsunade to come back and the Sannin to gather before they could be implemented.

Konoha is neither big nor small, and not everyone is of the same mind.

Although Danzo is not strong, he still has the basic deterrence. If he directly starts drastic reforms, Orochimaru alone may not be able to stabilize the situation.

Seeing the team greeting him at the entrance of the village, Jiraiya couldn't help but want to make a splash.

"The Toad Immortal is back!"

He was about to say something more, but he was hit on the ground by Tsunade's strange punch.

Lying on the ground, Jiraiya felt the long-lost strange power punch. Although it hurt, he felt a little happy.

"Okay, you two are back, go directly to the meeting!"

Orochimaru is not planning to reminisce about the past today, but to announce something.

With Jiraiya and Tsunade taking sides, Konoha is now his one voice.

Although a little helpless, Jiraiya and Tsunade also knew that there must be a reason for Orochimaru to be so anxious.

The three ninjas reunited, and most of Konoha's ninja clan leaders and jounin were present.

Orochimaru sat in the main seat, with Jiraiya and Tsunade beside him.

Nara Shikaku stood not far away.

"Everyone, I want to announce a few things."

"First of all, cancel the Uchiha clan's responsibilities in the Konoha Police Department. The Uchiha clan can participate in ANBU and other positions in Konoha."

"Increase the construction of Ninja School..."

Orochimaru announced a series of orders, the most concerning of which was the cancellation of the Konoha Police Department.

After talking about some policy changes, Orochimaru's tone became serious.

"Next we will enter a wartime state. Jiraiya and Kakashi will lead the team to completely drive out the Kumo ninja and Iwa ninja."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the silent Uchiha Fugaku.

"The Uchiha clan also needs to send jounin to participate. Chief Fugaku, after the meeting is over, I have something to talk to you about."

No one objected, except for the Uchiha Police Department being abolished, everything else was what everyone wanted to see.

All the major ninja clans also knew that Orochimaru was not a conservative like the Sandaime, but a radical who was far better than Danzo.

Coupled with the return of Jiraiya and Tsunade, Konoha's external attitude will become even tougher.

The only thing that makes people think deeply is Orochimaru's attitude towards the Uchiha clan.

He abolished the Konoha Security Department but allowed the Uchiha clan to join the war, making his intentions unclear.

Neither Jiraiya nor Tsunade spoke. Now that Orochimaru has become Hokage, even if they are friends, they must listen to Orochimaru's command at this time and talk about it later.

Jiraiya and Tsunade suddenly had a sense of déjà vu that they were Mito Kabuto and Koharu who were sleeping together.

Uchiha Fugaku remained at the end.

Orochimaru's expression was still half-smiling, which made Uchiha Fugaku a little uneasy.

However, his son Itachi told him that Orochimaru would not target the Uchiha clan in the future. It was the Sandaime who said this.

For the Sandaime Hokage, Uchiha Fugaku, like most people in the village, both respected and loathed him.

The young Hiruzen Sarutobi led Konoha to strength, but the old Hiruzen Sarutobi only drew nutrients from Konoha.

"There is actually no need for the existence of the Security Department. It will only increase the conflict between Uchiha and the village."

This is true. The Security Department deals with trivial matters that offend people. Uchiha's character is very upright and he offends people too easily.

Uchiha Fugaku had long been aware of this problem, but the proud Uchiha were unwilling to give up their work in the security department.

"In the future, the village will be open to Uchiha, and Uchiha will also be encouraged to move out of the clan and live inside the village."

Then Orochimaru chatted with Uchiha Fugaku for a while and then let him leave.

"Orochimaru, I didn't expect you to be such a decent Hokage."

Jiraiya lamented that Orochimaru might really be more of a Hokage than him.

He has a restless character, and he doesn't have so many twists and turns in his mind to deal with things in the village.

Tsunade didn't feel anything. She had been watched by the second generation and the first generation since she was a child, so she was relatively familiar with these things.

She doesn't have a good impression of the Uchiha clan. After all, the two families are feuding families. However, it can be said that the village does not target the Uchiha clan. This can be said to be the most basic thing and there is nothing to object to.

"Tsunade, I'll leave the medical department to you. There may be a small-scale war with Kumogakure in the near future, and there will definitely be many wounded."

Tsunade nodded, this was certainly obligatory.

"Obviously we won, but we paid so much."

Jiraiya knew the situation in the village very clearly. Even though Konoha was the winner, he gave in step by step and sacrificed a lot.

"Where's the old man?"

Tsunade wanted to meet Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Why not hand over the village to young people sooner? Perhaps neither Rope Tree nor Broken will die.

"Let's go see him together later."

Speaking of Hiruzen Sarutobi, Orochimaru also looked strange. He had already received news from the ANBU that Hiruzen Sarutobi had become younger!

Orochimaru didn't understand why this happened, and Sarutobi Hiruzen had been living in seclusion in a small cabin on the edge of Konoha for the past few days, not knowing what he was doing.
