Yatsuragi's eyes narrowed, his response laced with bitterness "Don't talk as if you know anything, sensei"
He refused to accept any judgment or guidance from his former sensei. The bond that had once connected them now seemed severed, replaced by animosity and resentment.

The Hokage's mind flickered with painful memories, recalling a battle long ago.
He saw the image of a red-haired ninja with piercing golden eyes, a figure that was once his student, friend and comrade.
His heart ached as he remembered the tear that welled up in Yatsuragi's eyes before they turned cold and detached.
"Yatsuragi, don't" Jiraiya's voice echoed in the Hokage's thoughts, a lamentation uttered too late to prevent the tragic turn of events.
The memory unfolded before him—Yatsuragi vanishing, leaving a trail of destruction and death in his wake.

Soon after that Orochimaru was discovered to be conducting experiments with the help of Yatsuragi who remained hidden in the shadows.
Hiruzen's astonishment grew as he learned of Yatsuragi's collaboration with Orochimaru in conducting dark and forbidden experiments. The revelation struck him deeply, further tarnishing the bond he had once shared with his former student.
In the wake of this revelation, a realization dawned upon Hiruzen. There must be something that Yatsuragi desired, something that had driven him to align himself with Orochimaru and delve into such dangerous territories.
And thus at last following Yatsuragi's footsetps, Orochimaru's obsession towards the spell of immortality made him defect Konoha.
The Hokage's mind raced as he connected the dots, recognizing the immense power and knowledge that Orochimaru sought through his relentless pursuit of immortality.
It became apparent that Yatsuragi's involvement was driven by a shared obsession with the forbidden arts.
With a renewed sense of purpose, Hiruzen pledged to protect the village from the looming threat of Orochimaru's experiments and Yatsuragi's involvement. He would strive to ensure that their actions did not bring further harm to Konoha or its inhabitants.
