At times like this, Hanyu had to secretly be thankful that he had remained vigilant. You know, ninjas are accustomed to sneak attacks and assassinations. No matter how strong a ninja is, if he is caught off guard, he can easily be killed by his peers - not to mention that Hanyu is not a very powerful ninja.
Under Hanyu's suppression, Tsunade and Jiraiya did not become agitated. They continued to eat hot pot and sing songs as if nothing had happened, looking like they were waiting to die happily.
It wasn't just a matter of prying eyes. At this time, Hanyu had already confirmed who the person who was staring at them was. He was at another stall not far across the street. The man's face was covered by a tall stand-up collar, but judging from his body shape, he should be a strong middle-aged man.
Hanyu was thinking about the other party's possible actions next. If he was just spying, that would be great. But he was afraid that the other party would take other actions... It was not difficult to judge this person's goal.
Is it Hanyu himself? Unlikely. His most famous period and the period of his greatest value have long passed. The news of the death of the Second Hokage and the Raikage has spread throughout the ninja world. For other villages, the general course of events has also been pieced together. So now Hanyu is just an unknown little Genin. Only those who have nothing better to do would try to deal with him.
As for Jiraiya, even though he was a disciple of the third generation, he was born into a commoner family. To put it bluntly, he had no right to be targeted.
Therefore, as Hanyu had thought before, only Tsunade's identity was the most worth writing about.
Hanyu is not afraid of fighting. It seems that there is only one enemy, but since the other party knows nothing about it, it is difficult for Hanyu to guarantee that he can protect Jiraiya and Tsunade... Fighting alone is completely different from fighting while protecting other objects. So far, Hanyu has not received any professional guard training, and he has no experience in this area.
As for who was planning this... Could it be the Uchiha? Although Hanyu had made such a guess beforehand, it was just a "small mind". Of course, it was possible that the Uchiha planned to kidnap the Senju Princess, but when it really happened, Hanyu didn't believe it - would the proud Uchiha really be so low as to kidnap a child?
Well, we can't think too highly of these people. It's not like they haven't bullied pregnant women and babies before.
So in the end, Hanyu still placed the greatest suspicion on Uchiha... Although he would also jokingly say that all the bad things in Konoha were due to Danzo, in fact, he couldn't really put all the blame on him. At least Danzo was a smart man. Attacking Tsunade? That would mean he broke with his identity as a second-generation disciple, which was a pure act of seeking death.
Forty years later, he would have to be extra careful when dealing with Tsunade, let alone now. Now he would not have such thoughts at all, and there is no reason to do such a thing.
If we judge by who benefits the most and who has the most motivation, it can only be the Uchiha. The problem is that once the Uchiha takes action against Tsunade, it will be equivalent to an all-out war with the village, and there will be no room for maneuver. Can the Uchiha be so determined? Either Konoha is screwed, or they are screwed. Do they really dare to make such a bet?
Hanyu thought that he didn't dare, so he was a little confused about the current situation.
"Should we work together to defeat each other?" Seeing that Hanyu fell silent, Jiraiya and Tsunade looked at each other and then said this in a code word.
These two guys didn't realize they were in crisis at all, but were eager to fight.
Damn, you two are really bold.
The young people are "indifferent to life and death, just fight if you don't agree", but Hanyu himself is "the older he gets, the less courageous he becomes". Looking at the two of them, he felt that he had wasted so many brain cells.
Hanyu had vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and it seemed that the Uchiha were not the only ones in Konoha's undercurrent, so he wanted to capture the person who was secretly spying on him alive as much as possible to clarify the current situation... If not, he should have found a way to ask other Konoha ninjas for help.
Hanyu couldn't alert the enemy. So he smiled and said, "Have you finished eating? Let's go. It's almost time to send you back."
Then he stood up, paid the bill with the stall owner, and left with Jiraiya and Tsunade.
"Wait, let's take a walk first. I have to make sure that the other party is really just one person... Believe me, if that person really wants to attack, he will definitely do it next. No one will give up such a great opportunity." Hanyu bent down, pretending to tidy up Tsunade and Jiraiya's clothes and wipe the oil stains from their mouths, and whispered in their ears.
Including the target Tsunade, there are only two children and a very young and unknown ninja here. If the enemy in the dark really has any intentions, he will definitely take advantage of the time when the strength here is so weak, so Hanyu still reminds the two not to be anxious.
Tsunade and Jiraiya were not yet familiar enough with Hanyu to have intimate physical contact, so when Hanyu came over to explain, they could only suppress their instinctive discomfort.
After that, Tsunade had to pretend to show a pure smile and said to Hanyu, "Thank you, big brother."
These soft and tender words made both parties sneer involuntarily.
"Yeah, I feel a little nauseous."
At this moment, she, he and his heart all thought so at the same time.
The three of them walked forward along the street , and Hanyu quickly said, "They're catching up. At the moment, there's only one person on the other side."
After walking forward for ten minutes, another person followed.
But that is not the enemy.
"Tsunade, Jiraiya, where have you been? Why didn't you wait for me?"
It was Orochimaru. He shouted as he ran to Tsunade and Jiraiya, and then whispered quickly, "Someone is following you, only one person."
Tsunade and Jiraiya did not discover things on their own, but Orochimaru discovered them easily, and this is the difference between them. It has nothing to do with being smart or not, Orochimaru is just more vigilant, precocious, and thoughtful.
He definitely wouldn't do something like calling Hanyu "big brother"...even if he dared to call Hanyu, he wouldn't dare to agree.
"As we move forward, there will be fewer and fewer people, and soon the other side won't be able to hold it in any longer," Hanyu said.
As night fell, the group had already left the commercial district. The closer they got to the residential area, the fewer pedestrians there were on the road, making it easier for the other party to take action.
The appearance of Orochimaru brought certain uncertainties to those hiding in the darkness, but it also urged the other party.
If he doesn't want more variables to arise, he will eventually not be able to help but take action.
