Hokage Office.
"Kakashi, you mean, the person who took Hyuga Taiga's Byakugan is Orochimaru?" Tsunade frowned.
"Yes, Taiga said it himself."
"Strange. Why did Orochimaru suddenly have an interest in Byakugan? Has he not been studying Sharingan before?"
The one who said that is Jiraiya who hadn't appeared for a long time.
At this time, his severed arm was already intact, and not only didn't he lose his combat power, he has become even stronger.
Because his new arm is not a normal arm. It is made Hashirama's cells.
Not only has he recovered his lost arms, his physique has also become stronger.
This technology is naturally brought back by Shisui.
After Tsunade's re-adjustment, the effect has become even more prominent.
"I don't know what Orochimaru is thinking about." The old voice came from Sandaime who is also on the side.
Previously, Sandaime had retired, and stop taking care of village's situation. But this time, the Fourth Shinobi World War was about to start, so Sandaime can only come out from his retirement early.
After all, Sandaime has experienced many wars and led Konoha to victory.
When it comes to experience, maybe only a few people in the Shinobi World can compare with him.
Althought, his strength is not as good as before at this time, the experience in his brain is still enough to play an important role in the Fourth Shinobi World War.
From this, it can also see how important the forthcoming Fourth Shinobi World War in the Shinobi World rld is.
"For the time being, we can't do anything about it. The Fourth Shinobi World War is about to begin, and Orochimaru is also participating in it. Sooner or later, we will see him on the battlefield. It will be clear at that time," Tsunade said.
Both Jiraiya and Sandaime nodded upon hearing this, and did not delve into it.
The time is tight now, so this kind of thing can only be postponed.
"The army of the other four Shinobi Villages has been assembled and is rushing to the border of the Land of Rain. We are also almost ready to go. Kakashi, you will lead the Anbu's members," Tsunade said.
Kakashi nodded and said: "I understand."
"Jiraiya, the regular troops will be handed over to you."
"Don't worry, it will be no problem."
"Old Man, you will go to the place where the Five Kage gathers with me." Tsunade said towards Sandaime.
"Well, I don't expect that in my lifetime, I will experience another war again." Sandaime said with a sigh.
What makes Sandaime most emotional is that one of the people who started the war is Orochimaru.
Orochimaru is his favorite student. If he knew something like this would happen, Sandaime may have already killed him.
But in this world, there are a lot of ifs.
Sandaime and Tsunade stayed in the Hokage Office to discuss the next thing.
As for Jiraiya and Kakashi, they left.
"Jiraiya-sama, then I will go first."
"Wait, Kakashi, there are some things I want to tell you." Jiraiya suddenly said.
Kakashi was a little confused when he heard this, but still said: "What is it?"
"Let's change places first."
After Jiraiya said that, he disappeared from that place. When Kakashi saw it, he followed after him.
The top of Hokage Rock.
"Jiraiya-sama, what is the thing that you wanted to talk about?" Kakashi asked in confusion.
Jiraiya stood on the top of Sandaime's statue and looked into the distance. The entire village of Konoha was in their view.
"Kakashi, you should know why Orochimaru is taking the Byakugan, right?" Jiraiya said suddenly. Kakashi was silent when he heard Jiraiya's words, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Sure enough, you had a deal with Orochimaru." Jiraiya said as he stretched out his left hand.
It is the left hand that had just been transplanted.
Kakashi remained silent and did not answer.
Facing Jiraiya, Kakashi subconsciously did not want to lie. Perhaps it is because he respects the white-haired man in front of him.
"The Hashirama's cells in this left hand are something provided by Shisui. And Shisui's left hand is also created from Hashirama's cells. Under such circumstances, the only place where he could get the Hashirama's cells was from Orochimaru. Am I right?"
After Jiraiya said that, he turned and looked at Kakashi.
"Jiraiya-sama, you are correct. Shisui's left arm was severed by Danzo and he also lost his right eye. I was a little dissatisfied Sandaime-sama's way of handling it. So I decided to let Shisui hide. And in order to let Shishui recover from his physical injury, I went to Orochimaru. I made this deal with him." Kakashi confessed.
Hearing this, there was a trace of anger in Jiraiya's eyes, but it turned into helplessness. After all, he knew the situation at that time.
He is also a little dissatisfied with the way Sandaime handling that matter. So it's no wonder that Kakashi will be upset.
"I understand your feelings, but Orochimaru is Konoha's traitor. Making a deal with him is very detrimental to Konoha's interests."
"Jiraiya-sama, please rest assured that the transaction at that time did not involve any of Konoha's interests," Kakashi said.
"What did you trade with him?"
"The information about the Kaguya Clan."
Kakashi then told Jiraiya about his transaction with Orochimaru. The more Jiraiya listened, the deeper his brows frowned.
"That means, the body used by Orochimaru right now is the body that Kaguya Clan's orphan?"
"Yeah. The body of the Kaguya Clan is extremely powerful, and it is not inferior to the Uzumaki Clan. When it comes to combat power, the Kaguya Clan is even stronger."
"Kakashi, you have helped our enemy to get stronger." Jiraiya whispered.
Kakashi sighed and said, "Jiraiya-sama, in truth, I didn't think too much at the time. However, I didn't expect that Orochimaru could actually use Shikotsumyaku to this extent. I knew that Orochimaru can't master Senjutsu. But, I also didn't expect that after getting Kimimaro's body, Orochimaru would be able to master Senjutsu perfectly."
"Forget it, it is useless to say that now. Then, do you know why does Orochimaru take the Byakugan?" Jiraiya said s he looked at Kakashi.
Kakashi hesitated for a moment and then said, "If I didn't guess wrong, Orochimaru is trying to get...Tenseigan."
"Tenseigan? What is that?" Jiraiya was puzzled.
"Legend says that the Sage of the Six Paths has a younger brother who has a pair of eyes that are comparable to Rinnegan, which called Tenseigan. Rinnegan is the evolution of Sharingan, and Tenseigan is the evolution of Byakugan. I also found out about it accidentally."
Jiraiya was very surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect there would be such a thing in this world.
"If that's the case, then it will be troublesome." Jiraiya muttered.
As Orochimaru's former companion, Jiraiya is well aware of how terrifying Orochimaru could be.
If Orochimaru really gets this so-called Tensigan, he felt that Orochimaru will become the most terrifying enemy.
"Kakashi, how sure are you to deal with Orochimaru?"
"It's only fifty percent," Kakashi said.
