The members of the Guard Team all had calm faces, and the leading captain even more so, said with a calm face, "Lord Jiraiya, don't joke around. Since it was done by you, then please come with us back to the Konoha Village Guard Headquarters and accept punishment according to the regulations of Konoha Village."
Jiraiya felt unhappy in his heart. They actually really wanted to punish him. He had clearly already begged for mercy.
He quickly finished the ramen in the bowl and took a big sip of the soup. He turned back and said with a smile, "Alright, I'll go with you."
How could he possibly agree to go with them? Once he left the Ichiraku Ramen shop, he immediately ran away.
And the Guard Team members didn't expect things to go so smoothly, Jiraiya actually chose to accept punishment. Maybe it was because the fame of their Uchiha Clan had scared this Legendary Sannin.
"Since Lord Jiraiya is willing to come with us, that's naturally a good thing, the punishment can still be lighter."
Jiraiya sneered in his heart, 'A light punishment, really? Don't joke.'
If he were thrown into prison, how could the Toad Sage still have any dignity?
He turned around and walked toward the door. And when the Guard Team members saw Jiraiya get up and walk out, they immediately followed as well.
Ichiraku's boss was a bit surprised. Could it be that the always-peeking and incorrigible Jiraiya was finally going to be punished by the law?
He naturally knew about Jiraiya's perverted tendencies. In the Land of Fire, he was even known by the nickname "Pervy Sage."
Suddenly, he remembered something. That guy hadn't paid the bill yet. Just as he was about to go outside to ask for payment, he heard a shout, "Uchiha Clan guys, bye-bye."
Ichiraku's boss hurried out the door and saw Jiraiya's figure disappearing into the distance.
He was a little surprised in his heart. Jiraiya actually ran away. Then what about his ramen money?
Forget it. It's rare for Jiraiya to come back. Just treat it like he treated them.
But Jiraiya probably wouldn't be able to run away that easily. Now the public security of Konoha Village was much better than before. Hopefully, he can fend for himself.
There were still people in the village who could deal with him. That person also often came to eat noodles at his shop.
The few Uchiha squad members present were dumbfounded, frozen in place.
They didn't expect Jiraiya to actually deceive them. As soon as he went out the door, he ran away.
One of the members asked angrily, "Captain, what should we do?"
The Guard Team squad captain had a cold face. "Of course, we chase him."
He was actually fooled. How could he still have any dignity in the future?
He immediately used the Body Flicker Technique to quickly chase in Jiraiya's direction.
The other members also followed right away. Their figures instantly disappeared from where they stood, all using the Body Flicker Technique.
After Jiraiya ran for a while, just as he was about to stop, he felt the people behind him.
He was a bit helpless in his heart. These few guys from the Uchiha Clan had caught up again. If it were the past, he would've definitely left them with a deep lesson. But today was not like the past. If he really knocked them down, it wouldn't be a small matter.
Looks like he could only ask Tsunade to settle it for him. He had originally wanted to visit the Senju Clan anyway.
But after thinking about it, something felt off. If Lady Tsunade found out he went to peek at the women's bathhouse, she might actually beat him to death.
But then again, Tsunade had become the Fifth Hokage, her temper should have calmed a bit, right? Based on their many years of friendship, she should help.
Jiraiya only thought for a moment before deciding to head to the Senju Clan's territory.
Because the Uchiha Guard Team behind him had already caught up, there wasn't much time left for him to think.
Soon, Jiraiya arrived inside the Senju Clan territory. Without any hesitation, he slipped inside.
Then, the Uchiha Clan's patrol team also arrived here, but they all stopped.
Because this was the Senju Clan's territory, the home of the Fifth Hokage Tsunade.
They already knew that Ryosuke and Tsunade had made a very important decision, and this decision was greatly beneficial for the clan.
Their Uchiha Clan had gained full respect in the village. Instead of their status falling, it had actually risen.
Because Fugaku had taken the position of Advisor Elder, he could be considered one of the village's top officials and had a voice in major village affairs.So they had no complaints.
One squad member asked, "Captain, should we go in and capture Jiraiya?"
Breaking into the Senju Clan territory was a bit rude, and it was also the home of the village's Fifth Hokage.
This made a few of them hesitate.
The squad captain thought for a while, then said, "Go in, of course we have to go in. When we see Lady Tsunade, be respectful and explain the reason. Lady Tsunade probably won't blame us."
After speaking, he stepped into the Senju Clan territory. The others quickly followed.
And Jiraiya, who had entered first, headed toward the building with lights.
He felt emotional in his heart. It had been a long time since he came to the Senju Clan territory.
He leisurely walked into the hall, only to see Tsunade hugging a young man, even burying her head into the man's chest.
Jiraiya's face instantly stiffened. 'How could this be?'
His heart felt hurt. He even saw Tsunade show a smile that came from deep within her heart.
He did not feel happy inside, instead, he felt cold. He had definitely seen this kind of smile before.
That was over ten years ago. When Tsunade was still with Dan Kato. That was the kind of sincere happiness she had. But after Dan died, Tsunade never showed this kind of smile again.
What she had was a wild smile, never a shy one like now. What did this mean?
He didn't even need to think.
It meant Tsunade had found a new man. And that man wasn't him.
At this time, Tsunade also lifted her head from Ryosuke's chest, because she felt someone had come.
She looked and was surprised to say, "Jiraiya, you rascal, you also returned to the village?"
Ryosuke also noticed Jiraiya's arrival.
In the original story, Jiraiya accepted Tsunade's request to go to the Hidden Rain Village to investigate the Akatsuki, and was killed by his former students, Konan and Nagato.
That "Deva Path Pain" was actually just a puppet body.
