Naruto: People are in Konoha, the system arrived 20 years earlier Chapter 174

Hayato didn’t mind it at all. He smiled and said, “It’s fine, I’ll just clean it up. It’s already great to have a place to stay.”

Anyway, if he felt uncomfortable staying there at night, he could just use Flying Thunder God to go home and lie down, Hayato thought to himself.

His main purpose for this trip was to get in touch with Akatsuki. Now that the opportunity presented itself, he certainly wouldn’t rush off to the battlefield to work.

His own matters were more important for now.

“Alright, then I won’t disturb you. You get some rest. If you need anything, just let me know,” Yahiko said gently, then left Hayato’s room.

After closing the door, Yahiko let out a breath.

“Well, consider it repaying Jiraiya-sensei’s care back then.”

After Yahiko had gone far, Hayato created two shadow clones and had them start cleaning.

Since he was going to stay here for a while, he couldn’t breathe in dust every day; that would be too unfriendly to his lungs.

Hayato first tidied up a chair, then plunked himself down on it.

“I imagine they can probably guess that I have some special purpose for wanting to come here,” Hayato murmured, resting his head on his hands.

But there was nothing he could do about it. To establish a connection with them, he couldn’t be too aloof and wait for them to come to him.

Fortunately, he had always been sincere, so even though they might be curious about him, they shouldn’t be overly wary.

Sincerity was the only ultimate move.

If he had come in, concealed his identity, and then deliberately approached them, they would definitely avoid him like the plague.

He could, however, leverage the fact that they were Jiraiya’s students, Hayato thought to himself, staring at the ceiling.

However, Jiraiya probably still thought they were dead at this point, and it was the toads from Mount Myōboku who brought him the intelligence.

What role did the toads from Mount Myōboku play in that?

But for now, Hayato decided to put these matters aside. He watched his shadow clones working hard, causing dust to fly everywhere in the room.

Hayato waved his hand casually, coughed lightly, then looked at Delby beside him.

“Let’s go home first. We’ll come back later.”

Without waiting for Delby to reply, Hayato brought him back to his own home in Konoha.

He lay directly on his bed, while Delby went to play in the courtyard.

Hayato first pulled out his communication device, then took out a scroll.

This was given to him by Hiruzen before he left the village, containing the contact information of the Three Sannin.

The original intention was for him to have a way to contact other battlefields and provide support.

Coincidentally, it came in handy again.

Hayato sent a message to Jiraiya, asking about his current situation.

“If the Iwagakure side hasn’t been dealt with yet, I can go there in a few days and mention Yahiko and the others to Jiraiya.”

Then he could have Jiraiya help him establish a deeper connection with Yahiko and the others.

After a short while, Jiraiya replied.

Hayato listened to Jiraiya’s message and was stunned.

“Iwagakure was dealt with so quickly?” Then he remembered Hiruzen saying that he had Minato’s Flying Thunder God kunai there.

It seemed Hiruzen had personally taken action again. As expected of the Shinobi God.

In that case, it seemed Hiruzen’s position as the Third Hokage would become more and more stable.

This war could be said to be a resounding success on all fronts. Who could impeach Hiruzen and make him step down?

And in this battle, to be honest, there weren’t any particularly outstanding Hokage candidates.

Actually, Hayato didn’t care who became Hokage.

Oh, as long as it wasn’t Danzō, that was fine.

Thinking of Danzō, calculating the time, wasn’t he about to go and plot with Hanzō?

This time, he certainly wouldn’t let him kill Yahiko, as that would raise the difficulty of his mission by several levels.

Perhaps he might even need Danzō to help him integrate the Akatsuki organization.

Soon, Jiraiya sent another message, asking if he was heading towards the Land of Lightning and stating that Orochimaru had been out of contact for a while.

Hayato shook his head at this. Jiraiya was still too naive.

In this world, who could live longer than Orochimaru? He was a man who could glitch with the God of Death.

Wait a minute, something seemed off. Had Orochimaru researched his immortality technique yet? If not, there might indeed be an accident.

After thinking for a while, Hayato simply replied that he was already on his way.

Tsunade was also heading towards the Land of Lightning. He wondered what the outcome of the last battlefield of this Great Ninja War would be.

However, he had already gained a lot of prestige in this war. In a few years, he might really be able to ask Fugaku to step down.

Lost in many beautiful fantasies about the future, Hayato fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Hayato returned to Akatsuki’s guest room. Seeing the room completely refreshed, Hayato nodded in satisfaction.

My shadow clone cleaning is pretty much the same as me cleaning myself.

Hayato left his guest room and walked out of the Akatsuki base according to his memory.

Today he was alone, without Delby.

Near the base, Hayato saw several ninjas performing missions today.

He had to admit, Akatsuki’s uniform was quite good. It was a pure black crew-neck trench coat, which suited his taste.

It wasn’t the version with red clouds from Nagato’s era; that version of the uniform was a guaranteed death sentence the moment you took it off.

But he only liked the uniform; it wasn’t like he was going to defect from Konoha.

Currently, the rain in the Land of Rain was normal rain, unlike later when rain could be used as a means of monitoring the surrounding situation.

After he had walked around for a bit, Yahiko reappeared beside him, presumably having been informed that he was wandering outside.

“Let me show you some hospitality,” Yahiko said with a smile, then led Hayato to a restaurant and treated him to a hearty lunch.

This restaurant was a very simple place, with nothing fancy.

“How is it? Does it taste good?” Yahiko asked with a smile after taking a small sip of rich soup.

Hayato nodded slightly and smiled in response, “It’s alright.”

After a simple meal, Yahiko took Hayato to their usual mission reception area within the organization.

From afar, Hayato saw Konan, looking bored, standing alone in the mission hall.

After the two entered the mission hall together, Yahiko began to explain their organization’s main mission reception procedures to Hayato.

Hayato was a little confused. Why would Yahiko suddenly take him to learn about their daily business operations today?
