I have always been quite critical of the little actions that the third generation did behind the scenes.

That's why he left Konoha and went out to look for the child of destiny.

This can also be said to be a way for him to escape.

But this time, facing Lin Shu, the unprecedented enemy who killed three generations, he returned to the village without hesitation.

We need justice for the old man.

Tsunade nodded silently.

The hot-tempered woman forced herself to suppress her anger and kept it in her heart.

Her heart was heavier than Jiraiya could have imagined.

I have always been free and unattached. I am a lone man and can come and go as I please.

But she is different, as there are still many members of the Senju clan left in Konoha.

After layers of war, the family's population has declined to a point that cannot be ignored.

As the granddaughter of the first Hokage, Tsunade was extremely angry about the forest trees that had domineeringly occupied Konoha.

This has touched her sore spot.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…”

Just then.

Suddenly, there were several light landing sounds in the distance.

Several Konoha ninjas quickly stopped and came to the two of them, greeting them respectfully: "Tsunade-sama, Jiraiya-sama... I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

"It's okay. Considering Konoha's current situation, it must be quite difficult for you guys to come out."

Jiraiya waved his hand and looked at the ninjas gently.

These people were his old subordinates whom he had finally managed to contact.

Lin Shu governs the entire Fire Nation in an ironclad manner, and he has spies everywhere.

Faced with increasingly close surveillance, he and Tsunade even had to hide their identities and hide in this secret place.

"Let's just follow our plan."

After some discussion, everyone quickly decided on a plan.

They want to form a suicide squad, sneak into Konoha, and assassinate Lin Shu.

As long as this topic person dies, all conspiracies and intrigues will disappear.

.......

That night.

The night wind is cold.

A silver hook hangs in the sky, and its bright light sprinkles on the earth, but it makes people inexplicably feel a chill.

After many years, I revisited my hometown.

The two of them were no longer in the same mood.

“The scene is still there, but the old friends are all gone.”

Jiraiya wore a conical hat to hide his conspicuous white hair.

Looking at the standard round fan exclusive to the Uchiha clan on the Hokage Rock at the end of the village, I felt very complicated.

"I came back with only one purpose, to kill that brat as soon as possible and avenge the old man. No need to be fussy."

Tsunade looked at the dark-skinned ninjas patrolling the streets, and her anger was about to explode.

Damn, when did Konoha become like this?

"You'd better control your temper."

Jiraiya shuddered and gave a wry smile.

Even after so many years, I still can't do anything about her temper.

"Children, from now on, everyone can learn S-level ninjutsu. There is no discrimination here."

"No matter who you are, as long as you have a desire to learn, you don't have to worry about tuition until you reach adulthood."

Just then.

A pleasant female voice attracted the attention of both of them.

Tsunade frowned.

When did ninja teaching begin to spread to ordinary people?

As the female voice, who was a teacher, continued to speak.

The expressions in their eyes also changed significantly.

From the initial surprise, to shock, and then fell into deep thought.

During the teaching of this female teacher, the two heard about Lin Shu’s current educational reform.

Any child before the age of 18 is free to study until adulthood.

There is no need to worry about tuition fees, and there is no concept of ninjutsu monopoly.

As long as you are willing to work hard, even if you are born into a common family, it is possible for you to master the unique ninjutsu that only children from aristocratic families can master.

"This... is simply incredible."

Jiraiya looked at the little kids in the classroom who were shaking their heads and reciting along with the teacher, and a serious look appeared on his face.

Break down barriers and show basic fairness.

It is easier said than done.

Why do conflicts arise between ninjas?

Jiraiya had been thinking about this question as he traveled around the world.

Wouldn't it be good to use the ninjutsu that was used for fighting with swords in scientific research, to change the environment, and to benefit the people?

The future that he had been thinking about so hard was actually realized by a young man from the Uchiha clan.

In Lin Shu's plan, in the future ninja world, people will begin to focus on the study of science.

Science is the primary technological productivity.

It is no longer a tool used by the major ninja nations to make profits.

Since the Fire Nation Daimyo was deposed, Lin Shu has begun drastic reforms.

His reforms spread like wildfire.

He took the lead in launching a subversive change in the Fire Nation.

First of all, Lin Shu turned his attention directly to the foundation of the ninja system - the reform of the task system.

In the past, the ninjas' "bounty-oriented" mission model was completely overturned.

It was replaced by a people's livelihood points list system.

Konoha's ninjas can accumulate points through tasks such as [Agricultural Technology Improvement], [Plague Prevention], [Infrastructure Construction], etc., and exchange them for scarce resources or promotion opportunities.

In the field of education, Lin Shu implemented an 18-year compulsory education system.

And established the "Integrated Academy of Ninjutsu and Science" in the center of the Land of Fire.

This academy breaks down barriers of bloodline.

Children of common people can attend classes together with descendants of big clans such as Uchiha and Hyuga, without any favoritism or bullying.

The curriculum not only includes basic three-body skills, but also new subjects such as physics, science, etc.

On the economic level, he promulgated the Land Equalization Act.

The territories occupied by the so-called aristocratic families were forcibly recovered.

Listening to this so-called new policy, Tsunade could not help but clench her fists silently, her nails almost digging into her palms.

She had to admit that when she saw these children of commoner origin, holding the free "Introduction to Medical Ninjutsu" and reading it with great interest.

What surged in my heart was no longer just anger.

Jiraiya silently withdrew his gaze, and suddenly felt confused.

Although such people are not good people, they cannot be said to be purely bad people either.

"Well, what do you two think of my new policy?"

The sudden sound made Tsunade and Jiraiya shudder and look up at the same time.

But they found that Lin Shu, wearing the Hokage robe, was standing quietly on the street corner with the ninjas who led the two of them to sneak into Konoha.

"Are you Lin Shu?"

Jiraiya's face darkened.

He looked warily at the calm-looking boy opposite him.

There is no need to think about the reason why he and Tsunade were able to sneak into Konoha so smoothly.

It was all because of the deliberate indulgence of the young man in front of me.

"That's right." Lin Shu nodded slightly.

"I have to admit that your new policy does have some merits."

Jiraiya was silent for a moment, unable to say anything against his will.

"But..." He changed the subject and looked at the boy seriously: "This does not justify your cruel act of killing innocent people and betraying Konoha."

"Failure is treason, success is revolution."

Lin Shu shook his head and looked at the two people opposite him: "Out of respect for you two, I can give you a chance."

"If you agree to my new policy, I can forgive you for sneaking into Konoha tonight and pretend nothing happened."

"Everyone, let's go to Ichiraku Ramen after get off work and eat ramen. It's my treat."
