A convenience store opened in Naruto

"He knew that with Konoha's current prestige, the other major ninja villages would not send anyone, but one person still came."

"He doesn't know whether the few ninjas from the Sand Village who came here are really here to take the exam, or if they have other intentions. But no matter what it is, the Third Generation has already made a plan."

"He plans to take someone down with him before he abdicates. The Sand Village has been caught in the crossfire. If they don't move, it will be fine. But if they move, the Sand Village will pay a heavy price."

"The third generation didn't tell anyone about his plan, because he didn't know whether the ominous premonition in his heart would actually come true, but he was prepared for it."

"It is also for this reason that he is afraid that he will not have much time left, so he wants to train the next generation. Look at their identities, which one of them does not have a background?"

"Either they are the next generation successor of the family, or they have great potential."

"It's not a first for them to take the exam early. After all, during the war, they would have gone to the battlefield at this age. It's nothing special that they're just taking the exam now. You were already a jonin at the age of twelve."

"The third generation agreed to let them take the exam because they felt it was relatively safe during the exam. Even if the enemy wanted to take action, they would not do so in the middle of the exam. That is when the village is most prepared. If they want to take action, it will be after the exam is over or in the later stages of the exam."

"It is more likely to happen in the later stages. As the exam draws to a close, the defense personnel will disperse and only a small number of people will remain in the exam room to maintain order. The top management will also inevitably appear in the exam room at this time to present awards to the victorious candidates."

"Once the exam is over, the top leaders won't gather together like this, so in the later stages of the exam, the enemy will definitely not miss this good opportunity to wipe out all of Konoha's top leaders in one fell swoop."

"Although those who can stay in the examination hall at this time are all Konoha's elites, this is what they want. Since they dare to take action at this time, they must have thought of a countermeasure. The Third Hokage's plan is to take advantage of the enemy's strategy and risk his life to lure out the enemy. He is still confident in his own strength. The title of 'Ninjutsu Professor' is not for nothing."

"So no matter what you say, the Third Generation will not be shaken. He will probably ask you not to publicize this matter to avoid alerting the enemy."

"Of course, the above are all my own guesses. I don't know what the third generation is thinking," Ye Feng flicked the ash from his cigarette and expressed his thoughts. "I guess the third generation feels that he has been in this position for too long and it is boring. He wants to abdicate, but he can't find a suitable candidate to take his place. Or maybe he already has a candidate, but that person doesn't agree, so he plans to use this method to force that person to inherit his position."

"If that person can arrive at this time, participate in the Konoha crisis, and make a contribution, then that person's position is justified."

"Who is that person?" Kakashi was puzzled. Aren't they talking about the third generation? How come there is another person?

From what Ye Feng said, that person also has the ability to resolve Konoha’s current crisis?

"Jiraiya!" Ye Feng said a name that made everyone feel both familiar and unfamiliar.

He is familiar because many of the Twelve Little Strongmen have heard of him, and he is unfamiliar because no one has ever seen him.

Not to mention them, even Kakashi and others had never met Jiraiya.

Jiraiya had been wandering outside for many years and had returned to the village only a handful of times in the past few decades. It was a coincidence that they met each other.

Ye Feng said: "Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, was the third ninja's favorite. Originally, the fourth ninja's position of Hokage belonged to him, but unfortunately Jiraiya didn't want to be bound by the position of Hokage, so he gave the position to his apprentice Namikaze Minato. After the fourth ninja's death, Jiraiya still refused to be the Hokage."

"The Third Hokage had no other choice but to come up with this move. He knew that he was old and it would be difficult for him to achieve anything if he continued to stay in his position. Perhaps it was because he was old and had figured out many things. He couldn't bring himself to kill Danzo, so he hoped that his successor could solve this problem of Danzo."

"He also took this opportunity, while he was still conscious and in a relatively peaceful time, to complete the handover of the Hokage position and demonstrate Konoha's strength to the outside world."

"You have to know that the previous Ninja World Wars were all caused directly or indirectly by the death of the Hokage. Although the death of the Fourth Hokage did not cause a major war, the decline in the village's strength was even more serious than in the previous wars."

"The third generation was also afraid that after his death, the village would suffer even greater losses, so he took this approach."

"Of course, this is also my own guess."

Although he said so, Ye Feng was 80% sure that his guess was correct.

Jiraiya was away from home all year round because he had accepted a mission and was looking for someone. The third generation probably knew part of the content of this mission, so he had an urgent idea. He wanted to hand over the position smoothly, and he didn't want this incident to cause a disagreement within the village when something happened.

No matter what time it is, even in peacetime, internal disagreement will lead to turmoil, not to mention wartime.

Although everyone will spontaneously unite when facing a major crisis, there are always a few bad apples that will spoil the whole barrel.

Some people are so stupid that they don't care about so many things. They only care about whether they benefit from it or not, and don't care about the life or death of others.

This is human nature and it cannot be changed!

Everyone in the living room fell into silence again. Those who didn't understand were still picking up their dishes, while those who could understand were thinking about what Ye Feng said.

The difference in intelligence made it impossible for them to verify whether what Ye Feng said was true or false. If they only judged what Ye Feng said, they would not be able to find any loopholes. All of Ye Feng's guesses were reasonable.

After a long silence, Kakashi finally spoke.

"That's not a reason for you not to take action."

He decided to go back to the beginning. The purpose of his coming to Ye Feng was to persuade Ye Feng and let Ye Feng take action. No matter what Ye Feng said, he didn't intend to pay attention to it. He only wanted the final answer.

"Ah~" Ye Feng felt extremely tired. "Why didn't you listen to me after talking for so long? I've already said that the Third Hokage has his own plans. It doesn't matter whether I take action or not. Besides, didn't I say that someone would take action? Jiraiya, one of the Three Ninjas, has already taken action. What are you afraid of?"

"Are you sure when Jiraiya will appear?" Kakashi asked a question that left Ye Feng speechless.

Ye Feng had no idea when Jiraiya would appear. Although Jiraiya arrived at the last moment, this was the real world after all. Since he came, the Naruto world became a real world.

Anything can happen in the real world. Novels are based on logic, but reality is not. If you copy them completely, it may kill people. Ye Feng cannot guarantee that the stories he reads can be matched one by one with things that have not happened.

What if? What if Jiraiya saw a beautiful woman bathing in the wild on his way back and stopped for a moment, which caused him to come back late and Orochimaru had already retreated, then...

Ye Feng didn't dare to guarantee this.

"I am not sure."

"That's it, isn't it?" Kakashi stared at Ye Feng intently and said, "We can't put our hopes on unknown things. Only if you take action, will there be no mistakes!"

There is another reason why Kakashi wants Ye Feng to take action. He is not sure how strong Jiraiya is, but he is sure how strong Ye Feng is.

Although Kakashi had not yet discovered Ye Feng's true strength, the strength that Ye Feng had already displayed was beyond Kakashi's understanding. In Kakashi's guess, in order to force out Ye Feng's full strength, he would probably have to be at the level of the Second Generation Hokage.

"You have to force me like this, right?" Ye Feng stared at Kakashi without showing any weakness, and said word by word, "I treat you as a friend, why do you have to force me like this? Can't you just let me be a small boss quietly?"

"'With great power comes great responsibility', that's what you said."

"Bullshit, when did I say that?" Ye Feng couldn't remember when he had said this famous quote from a movie in his previous world.

However, he couldn't remember when this sentence appeared in the Naruto world. Maybe there were similar words, but Ye Feng was sure he had never heard it word for word.

"Did I talk in my sleep?" Ye Feng thought, but that didn't make sense. He always slept alone, so even if he talked in his sleep, Kakashi wouldn't be able to hear it, right?

"When we were in Wave Country, you talked in your sleep."

Ye Feng only felt pain on his face, as if someone had slapped him twice in the face. He had forgotten that when he was in the Land of Waves, he did live in the same room with Kakashi.

Ye Feng asked with an unpleasant expression: "Did I say anything else?"

"No, I just heard this." Kakashi shook his head. He heard it in a daze at the time and thought it made sense, so he wrote it down. As for whether Ye Feng said anything else, he really didn't pay attention.

"That's good." Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that if he said too much, Kakashi would hear it and it would cause the latter's worldview to collapse.

In order to prevent Kakashi from talking about this again, Ye Feng quickly changed the subject: "Okay, you just want me to take action, I agree, but I have a condition."

"You tell me!" Kakashi was delighted. "As long as you are willing to help, I can agree to any conditions."

"Don't be so sure," Ye Feng said calmly, "My condition is very simple, one life for another. I can save the Third Hokage, but Danzo must die!"

"If the Third Hokage can't do it, I can! I dare to kill those who the Third Hokage doesn't dare to kill! I don't need your help to kill Danzo, you just need to tell me where he is."

"This..." Kakashi was a little hesitant. It's not that he was hesitant about killing Danzo. He also hoped that Danzo would die. What made him hesitant was that he couldn't guarantee that he could find out Danzo's hiding place in a short time.

If we were to say who is the most mysterious person in the village, it would definitely be Danzo. He is like a dragon that is hard to find all day long. He doesn't come out for ten days or half a month. Unless invited by the Third Hokage, Danzo will never participate in general activities. Where his base is is even more of a mystery.

"Why, is it difficult?" Ye Feng snorted, "Anyway, I have already told you the conditions. They are valid before Orochimaru's plan begins. But if Orochimaru's plan has already begun and you haven't told me, then you can't blame me."

"Okay!" Kakashi agreed. He also realized that this was Ye Feng's bottom line. Even if it was anything else, Ye Feng would not agree.

Just look for him. He believes that he still has some trustworthy friends in the village. The transaction with Ye Feng cannot be told to the third generation. The fewer people who know about it, the better, to avoid leaking the news.

To be conservative...

Kakashi glanced at the people around the coffee table and warned: "You guys, take the exam peacefully. This matter has nothing to do with you. Remember not to tell anyone. Remember, no one, including your parents!"

Everyone knew the seriousness of the matter and nodded hurriedly. They decided to keep the matter to themselves and would not talk about it even after it was over.

After all, murdering senior officials is a serious crime no matter where it happens. It would be fine if they had the endorsement of senior officials, but the key is that without the endorsement of senior officials, if the matter is leaked, they would not be able to explain it even if they had ten mouths. Others would not say anything on the surface, but they would inevitably be pointed out behind the scenes.

Not everyone has the ability to think independently. Most people are used to going with the flow. They only believe what they see without thinking about the truth behind it.

After the matter was said and done, Kakashi relaxed. There was no rush to investigate Danzo. He just wanted to fill his stomach first. If he was hungry, he would have no energy to do anything.

He was eating with great relish. However, the Twelve Little Warriors who had just met Ye Feng, except for Choji, had no appetite. It was not because Kakashi and the others had not come that they were already full. Well, that was partly due to their concerns, but Ye Feng was the main reason why they could not eat.

Probably because what Ye Feng said was beyond their imagination. When he told them how to pass the second exam, they thought Ye Feng knew someone in high-level positions. Or perhaps Ye Feng himself participated in the formulation of the exam rules, so he knew so much.

Although they felt pleasantly surprised, they were not that shocked. But what Ye Feng said afterwards, one thing after another, was completely beyond their understanding.

There are so many secrets that even the elders in their family may not know, especially those about Danzo.

Who is Danzo? In their impression, he is a high-ranking official in the village, second only to the Hokage. It is not an exaggeration to describe him as "powerful and influential". Although he rarely shows up, his power remains undiminished.

Whenever their family elders mentioned Danzo, they had an expression that they couldn't understand. They used to think that it was the family elders' awe of the powerful official, but now they understood that it was a sign of vigilance, and they probably knew some of the things Danzo had done.

But because of the third generation, the elders couldn't do anything to Danzo. Danzo himself, no matter his strength or influence, should not be underestimated.

Ye Feng said that he wanted to get rid of Danzo alone, which made them wonder whether Ye Feng had the ability to do so?

They have only known each other for a short time and they don’t know how strong Ye Feng is.

"You little brats, why are you staring at me?" Being stared at was not pleasant at all, especially when those people looked at him with suspicion. Ye Feng just felt uncomfortable all over. "What's wrong, do you doubt my strength?"
