"That's right!" Koharu said, "If you only let Tsunade Ji master the ordinary wooden ninjutsu left by the original Hokage in the Senju clan of the Mori no Mori, it would be a waste of Tsunade-hime's talent!"

"Furthermore, for Konoha , it is not too much to have one more Tsunade Ji who only mastered the ordinary wooden ninjutsu left by the first Hokage in the Senju clan of the Mori no Hand clan, and one less Tsunade Ji who only mastered the ordinary Wood Dun ninjutsu left by the first Hokage in the Senju clan of the Mori no Hand clan is not too little!"

"Therefore, I agree to give Tsunade-hime a five-year transition period to master the wooden escape ninjutsu left by the original Hokage in the Senju clan of the Mori no Mori!"

As soon as Koharu finished speaking, Mito Menyan immediately spoke: "Hito, during this five-year transition period, the three of us have two things to do - first, to find a way to calm the undercurrent under the surface of Konoha water, and second, to create momentum for Tsunahime to serve as Hokage five years later!"

"Menyan, you should do both of the things you said!" said the third Hokage, "However, before I do the two things you said, I must first know from Tsunade how long she needs to transition!"

"You have to know how long she needs to transition from Tsunade Hime!?" Mito Menyan asked with a surprised expression, "Hito, didn't you just say that you had given Tsunade Hime five years of transition time, why did you say that you had to know how long she needed from Tsunade Hime first?"

"Menyan, about the five-year transition time, it was the two of you who misunderstood!" said the third Hokage, "However, it's not surprising that it will cause a misunderstanding between the two of you - after all, I just said something that Koharu interrupted!"

"Hito, then you can continue with what you were interrupted by Koharu!" Mito Menyan said.

"Okay!" said the third Hokage, "Menyan, Koharu, according to my idea, I originally planned to give Tsunade five years of transition time, but Tsunade wanted to decide the length of the transition time for himself!"

"And I saw that Tsunade had promised to inherit the Hokage's position from me, and considering that I couldn't cause Tsunade's backlash, I agreed to let Tsunade decide the length of the transition himself!"

"Hito, aren't you afraid that Tsunade-hime will deliberately delay?" asked Koharu.

"Koharu, I've told Tsunade not to make the transition too long!" said the third Hokage, "and Tsunade has promised me to inherit the Hokage's position from me while I'm still healthy!"

"For a person who will be at the age of sixtieth year next year, there is not much time left for him to be healthy, so the transition time decided by Tsunade should not be too long!"

"I hope so!" said Koharu.

"Hizari, when will Tsunade-hime give you an answer?" Mito Menyan asked.

"Menyan, in this or two days, Tsunade will give me an answer!" said the third Hokage.

Mito Menyan said: "Hito, in this or two days, Tsunade Ji will give you an answer, then we will wait for Tsunade Ji to give you an answer, and then start to do the two things I said before!"

"That's good!" said the third Hokage, "Menyan, Koharu, then we'll wait for Tsunade to give me an answer, and we'll meet again!"

"After we get together again, we'll start doing the two things that Menyan said before!"

——————————

The ninth day of the fourth month.

Tsunade's residence.

When Tsunade finished teaching Hinata Ichiro, he said to Hinata Ichiro, who was packing up his notes, "Ichiro, when you finish packing up your notes, you can stay for a while - I have something to discuss with you!"

(On the evening of the eighth day of the fourth month, Hinata Ichiro had already returned to the Hyuga family from the Temple of Fire.) ）

"Okay!" Hearing this, Hinata Ichiro agreed.

After a while.

"Tsunade-sensei, please speak!" Hinata Ichiro said after cleaning up.

"Ichiro, here's the thing!" Tsunade said, "Yesterday afternoon, I went to the old man's office, and the old man said to me......"

After some narration, Tsunade informed Hinata Ichiro about the three generations of Hokage convincing him to inherit the Hokage from him - of course, in the process of lobbying the three generations of Hokage, everything involved Hinata Ichiro, and Tsunade did not inform Hinata Ichiro.

Knowing that Tsunade promised to inherit the position of the Hokage from the three generations of Hokage, Hinata Ichiro's face appeared with joy, and he congratulated him: "Tsunade-sensei, congratulations on becoming the fifth Hokage!"

"Ichiro, do you think I should be the fifth Hokage?" asked Tsunade.

Hearing Tsunade ask himself like this, Hinata Ichiro was stunned, and after reacting, he said: "Tsunade-sensei, starting from the death of the fourth generation Hokage, in the next ten years, no one is more suitable to become the fifth generation Hokage than you and Jiraiya seniors!"

"However, for me, it is more beneficial for you to become the fifth Hokage than Jiraiya-senpai to become the fifth Hokage - after all, the relationship between me and you is better than the relationship between me and Jiraiya-senpai!"

"Ichiro, you're so honest!" Tsunade said.

"Tsunade-sensei, if I'm not honest with you, then who should I be honest with!" Hinata Ichiro said.

"Hehe!" Tsunade smiled, then asked, "Ichiro, if I don't want to be the fifth Hokage, will you be alienated from me?"

"How is this possible!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Tsunade-sensei, whether you are willing to become the fifth Hokage or not, I will not be estranged from you because of this!"

Speaking of this, Hinata Ichiro paused, looked at Tsunade, and continued: "Tsunade-sensei, if you are not willing to become the fifth Hokage, I guarantee that no one can force you to become the fifth Hokage!"

"Ichiro, is this what you mean?" asked Tsunade.

"Tsunade-sensei, of course this is what I mean!" Hinata Ichiro said.

"Ichiro, if I don't become the fifth Hokage, and you plan to compete with the disciples of the fifth Hokage for the position of the sixth Hokage in the future, then you will be at a competitive disadvantage!" Tsunade looked at Hinata Ichiro and asked, "You have no opinion on this?"

"Tsunade-sensei, when I compete with the disciples of the fifth Hokage for the position of the sixth Hokage, what if I am at a competitive disadvantage!" Hinata Ichiro said indifferently, "I believe that I myself will not lose to anyone!"

"Ichiro, you're so confident!" Tsunade said with a smile.

"Of course!" Hinata Ichiro replied with a proud face.

After responding, Hinata Ichiro continued: "Tsunade-sensei, if you don't want to become the fifth Hokage, then please don't take care of me and just refuse Hokage-sama!"

"Hehe!" Regarding Hinata's words that Ichiro let him directly reject the three generations of Hokage, Tsunade just smiled and did not respond.

Seeing Tsunade like this, Hinata Ichiro understood Tsunade's plan.

After thinking about it, Hinata Ichiro asked, "Tsunade-sensei, when is Hokage-sama going to hand over the Hokage's position to you?"

"Ichiro, although I will inherit the Hokage's position from the old man, I am not ready to become the fifth Hokage in the near future!" Tsunade said.

"Tsunade-sensei, when are you going to become the fifth Hokage?" asked Hinata Ichiro.

"Ichiro, before I can inherit the Hokage's position from the old man, I must first master the Wood Escape Ninjutsu that my grandfather left in the family!" Tsunade said.

"Tsunade-sensei, only by mastering the Wood Escape Ninjutsu left by the original Hokage in the Senju clan of the Mori no Hokage, can you inherit the Hokage's position from the Hokage-sama?" Hinata Ichiro asked with a frown.

"Ichiro, almost!" Tsunade said, "However, even if the old man didn't let me master the Mu Dun Ninjutsu that my grandfather left in the family, I also intended to practice the Mu Dun Ninjutsu that my grandfather left in the family—for the Senju clan of the Mori, Mu Dun is a very special existence!"

"Yes!" Hinata Ichiro nodded and agreed, "The original Hokage back then brought the Senju clan of the Mori to the pinnacle of glory with his unique Mu Dun Ninjutsu!"

Speaking of this, Hinata Ichiro asked, "Tsunade-sensei, how long did Hokage-sama give you time to cultivate the wooden ninjutsu that the original Hokage left behind in the Senju clan of the Mori no Mori?"

"Ichiro, it's up to me to decide the length of time you practice!" Tsunade said.

Hearing this, a gleam flashed in Hinata Ichiro's eyes and he asked, "Tsunade-sensei, regarding the length of cultivation time, is it as long as you want?"

"How is this possible!" Tsunade shook his head and said, "Ichiro, although the length of cultivation time is determined by me, it is not as long as I want to cultivate!"

Hearing Tsunade's words, Hinata Ichiro was slightly disappointed in his heart, but it didn't show it on his face.

Afterwards, Hinata Ichiro asked, "Tsunade-sensei, how long do you think it will take for you to master the wooden ninjutsu that the original Hokage left behind in the Senju clan of the Mori no Mori?"

"Ichiro, I don't know how long it will take me to master the Wood Escape Ninjutsu that Grandpa left in the family!" Tsunade said with some distress, "After all, there are some of the Wood Escape Ninjutsu that Grandpa left in the family, and some of the Wood Escape Secret Techniques are extremely difficult to master!"

"Tsunade-sensei, if you can't estimate the exact time, you can always estimate the approximate time!" Hinata Ichiro said.

"Ichiro, if the cultivation is relatively smooth, then the approximate time should be about three or four years!" Tsunade thought for a moment and said, "But if the cultivation is a little stumbling, then the approximate time should be about five or six years!"

"Tsunade-sensei, if you're not going well with the Wood Escape Ninjutsu, are you sure Hokage-sama will give you five or six years?" Hinata Ichiro asked.

"Ichiro, five to six years of cultivation time, the old man will still agree!" Tsunade said, "After all, the old man originally planned to give me five years of cultivation time, but because I wanted to decide the length of cultivation time for myself, I didn't agree!"

"Tsunade-sensei, since Hokage-sama will allow five to six years of cultivation time, is it possible for Hokage-sama to allow ten years of cultivation time?" Hinata Ichiro looked at Tsunade and asked quietly.

"Ichiro, ten years is too long, the old man probably won't agree!" Tsunade shook his head and said.

"Why?" Hinata asked, "Tsunade-sensei, it's just four more years, why didn't Hokage-sama agree?"

"Ichiro, if the old man is a few years younger, then he might agree!" Tsunade said, "but the old man is 59 years old now, so the chances of the old man agreeing are close to zero—after all, the old man will be 69 years old in ten years!"

"Tsunade-sensei, what if you show Hokage-sama that you need time to learn Yin-Yang Escape?" Hinata Ichiro thought for a moment and asked, "Then will Hokage-sama give you four more years of cultivation?"

"Ichiro, even if I tell the old man that I need time to learn Yin Yang Escape, I'm not sure that the old man will give me an extra four years of cultivation time!" Tsunade said, "As for the reasons for this, I think there are two reasons for this—one is that from the old man's words and deeds, I found that the old man hopes that I can inherit the Hokage's position from him as soon as possible, and second, the old man doesn't know much about Yin Yang Escape!"

"Tsunade-sensei, for the first reason, I can't do anything!" Hinata Ichiro said, "but for the second reason, I don't mind if Hokage-sama knows more about Yin and Yang Escape!"

"So, I hope that Tsunade-sensei can go to Hokage-sama and give it a try to see if I can buy ten years of cultivation time!"

"Ichiro, why do you want me to gain ten years of cultivation time?" asked Tsunade suspiciously.

Hinata Ichiro really didn't know how to reply to Tsunade's question for a moment - if the time wasn't right, Tsunade wouldn't believe it even if he said something himself.

"Ichiro, why don't you reply?" Seeing that Hinata Ichiro didn't speak, Tsunade asked.

"Tsunade-sensei, since Hokage-sama can't promise you ten years of cultivation, then let Hokage-sama promise to give you six years of cultivation time!" Hinata Ichiro avoided Tsunade's inquiry and said, "A little more time for cultivation will also help you consolidate the Mu Dun Ninjutsu you have mastered!"

Hearing Hinata Ichiro's last words, Tsunade thought that Hinata Ichiro let him buy ten years of cultivation time to consolidate the Mu Dun Ninjutsu he had mastered.

So, Tsunade said, "Ichiro, since you think that six years is the right time, then I will decide that the cultivation time is six years!"

"Tsunade-sensei, in the six years of cultivation, I believe that you will not only be able to master the Wood Escape Ninjutsu left by the first Hokage in the Mori no Senju clan, but also be able to use the Wood Escape Ninjutsu left by the first Hokage in the Mori no Senju clan as you like!" Hinata Ichiro said.

"Hehe!" Hearing Hinata Ichiro encourage himself, Tsunade smiled and said, "Ichiro, you have your self-confidence, and I also have mine - in the future, let's work together to improve our strength!"

"Of course!" Hinata Ichiro nodded and said.
