Chapter 83: Steamed Bun

Jiraiya left Konoha Village for two reasons. One was because of Orochimaru's desertion and the other because he really didn't want to get involved in Konoha Village's internal affairs.

He is a person who doesn't care about fame and fortune, and Jiraiya is very afraid of trouble. If the high officials of the village knew he would return, they would definitely argue with him for being away from the village for so long.

As for Danzo and Koharu, he would never meet them if he could avoid it.

After thinking about Danzo, Jiraiya's eyes darkened a bit. Although the main reason for Orochimaru's desertion was because he had taken an evil path, it was inseparable from that old Danzo's help.

Since Orochimaru's desertion, Jiraiya has almost abandoned the village by following in his footsteps, spying on Orochimaru's news. Through the various information collected in recent years, he also learned that Orochimaru and Danzo had been in secret contact for a long time when they were in Konoha Village.

Jiraiya doesn't know the specific content, but he probably knows that Danzo is inseparable from human experimentation, but unfortunately, he cannot obtain definitive evidence.

Sighing, Jiraiya was a little melancholic. Another reason he didn't want to show his face in public was because of Minato's death over ten years ago.

Konoha needs a new Hokage now, and he really isn't cut out for that position.

If he appears in front of his master, he will definitely talk to him about the Fifth Hokage. He is used to being free and lazy, and he has no interest at all in the Hokage seat.

There is still Danzo and his dirty tricks in the middle.

Jiraiya doesn't want to get involved in such troublesome things.

"Jiraiya-sama, Jiraiya-sama!"

"Huh?" Jiraiya suddenly heard Kakashi's voice, immediately woke up, looked at him a little confused and asked, "What's wrong?"

Kakashi looked at Jiraiya's confused eyes, raised his hands helplessly, and said, "I asked how I can help."

"The people from that organization are not weak, so don't act rashly." Jiraiya warned, "After finding those two people, you should secretly monitor them and then send someone to notify me."

Kakashi nodded and replied, "Alright."

In Konoha Village, Kakashi also has his own small intelligence network, which is why Jiraiya turned to him for help.

"It's not too late, let's part ways." Jiraiya stood up and when he turned to leave, he suddenly remembered a person: his apprentice's son.

He made a new pause, turned to look at Kakashi and asked, "How is Naruto, do you know where he lives?"

Jiraiya felt a little excited, he wanted to see how Naruto is doing now, he should be very similar to Minato, right?

Speaking of which, the boy's name still comes from one of his own novels! In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.

Jiraiya intends to secretly visit Naruto to see how he is doing.

After his parents died, Naruto's identity had to be kept secret for security reasons.

Konoha went through a crisis after the Kyubi attack, so no one would be surprised if the Kyubi's Jinchuriki was kidnapped or, worst case scenario, killed.

But these years, Jiraiya has never visited Minato's son.

His godson.

Kakashi has experienced the blows of his father's suicide, the death of his comrade, his own teammates, and the death of his most beloved teacher. Even if he didn't have such a darkened mindset, he would still be deeply affected.

During the few days he stayed in the village without going on missions, Kakashi went to buy pornographic books to pass the time, and then left the village as soon as he had missions.

During the early years, Kakashi was like this.

Later, when Naruto grew up and could live on his own, Kakashi's mood almost stabilized. Although he didn't need to paralyze himself with the reason for doing tasks, he really didn't know what to do after seeing the teacher's children. So, he simply postponed things like that and hadn't looked at it until now.

However, he still knows where Naruto lives.

Now that he heard Jiraiya mention Naruto, Kakashi felt guilty in his heart, nodded towards Jiraiya and said, "I know where he lives, let me guide you."

"Then let's go together."

Jiraiya turned his head and after using the Transformation Technique to change his appearance, he opened the door and the two of them walked out of Kakashi's apartment together.

Naruto walked alone down the street with his hands behind his head and a blade of grass between his teeth. After the holidays, he was even more bored.

As he looked at the different shops on both sides of the street, Naruto rolled his eyes. He was thinking whether to play a prank or go play with Choji and Shikamaru and Kiba.

They are the few in the village who are willing to accompany him to play.

"Gulu..."

Suddenly there was a growl in his stomach, Naruto stopped and rubbed his little stomach, he hadn't eaten since morning because he woke up too late to go back.

Naruto wanted to go to Ichiraku Ramen restaurant near his house to eat a bowl of ramen, he quickly took out his wallet from his pocket, opened it and saw the amount of money in it, his face immediately collapsed.

There are only 10 taels, even the cheapest Ichiraku ramen is not affordable.

Disappointed, he let out a long sigh, rubbed his stomach, looked towards the steamed bun shop not far away and planned to buy a steamed bun to satisfy his hunger.

After crossing the walkway, in front of the steamed bun shop, Naruto handed over the remaining 10 taels to the steamed bun vendor and said, "Boss, I'll buy a steamed bun!"

The boss, who was sitting and dozing off, heard someone wanting to buy buns and quickly opened his eyes.

When he saw that it was Naruto, his eyes filled with disgust. He raised his hand and pushed Naruto's hand away. He angrily said, "Demon, if you don't want to get beaten up, get out of here!"

Pushed by the boss, the 10 taels fell to the ground, Naruto's face turned blue with anger, he hid the disappointment in his eyes, made a grimace, stooped down to pick up the money and ran towards his home.

Naruto is used to it, there are very few people in the village who are willing to sell him anything, so he already plans to go straight home and eat instant noodles left by the old Hokage.

This scene fell into the eyes of Jiraiya and Kakashi. The two just happened to pass by, but unexpectedly saw that scene.

There was no emotion in Jiraiya's eyes. He approached the owner of the steamed bun shop and asked with some doubts, "Why did you treat that child like that? I think he just wanted to eat a steamed bun, not to mention he paid for it."
