When Hiruzen decided to retire, Orochimaru applied to replace him as Fourth Hokage.īecause of their skills, each of the Sannin have been considered for the position of Hokage at one time or another: However, that same battle was the last one the three fought together: Jiraiya afterwards decided to remain in Ame, to repent for his part in the war the horrors of the war badly affected Tsunade as well, prompting her to abandon the life of a ninja Tsunade had left Konoha by the time of Jiraiya's return to Konoha, and Orochimaru would eventually leave the village as well, a consequence of his criminal activities Jiraiya tried and failed to convince Orochimaru to return, and subsequently dedicated himself to monitoring Orochimaru's activities, a task that took him away from Konoha for long periods of time. As a reward for this, Hanzō dubbed them "Konoha's Legendary Sannin". During one battle with Amegakure's Hanzō, they were the only Konoha ninja to survive Hanzō's attacks. Once they became skilled ninja able to look after themselves, Hiruzen's team disbanded.ĭespite the official dissolution of their team, the three continued to work together during the Second Shinobi World War. Despite being a team and having accomplished great things together, the three members were always in constant disagreement with one another, which Tsunade referred to as a "three-way deadlock". During their time as Hiruzen's students, they all learned to use the Summoning Technique, which they perform with their left hands. For one of their earlier training exercises, Hiruzen gave them a bell test: Jiraiya failed to get a bell - he repeatedly fell for Hiruzen's traps - and was tied to a stump as punishment. As genin, the three were teamed together under the leadership of Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage.
