Chapter 1: Tsunade, Do You Crave Power?

Next Chapter

After the conclusion of the first Five Shadows Talks, comprehensive peace was achieved for the first time in this devastated land.

But this peace has a time limit.

That was the lifespan of the Senju Pillar of the First Hokage.

When the Thousand Hands Pillar, known as the god of the ninja world, died, the countries no longer had any scruples.

The First Shinobi War broke out.

Unwilling to be trapped on the peninsula, the Land of Thunder made a desperate gamble and threw more than a thousand ninjas into an invasion of Konoha.

The Konoha ninja, under the leadership of the second generation Hokage Senju, guarded the ninja village and brought victory to Konoha.

In the end, it ended with the defeat of Yun Ninja.

This is not because of the total defeat of Yun Ninja.

It's that Yunyin Village has failed to deal with domestic problems, and sustaining the war will only lead to domestic turmoil.

In order to ensure that the fruits of the revolution did not fall into the hands of the nobles, the second generation of Lei Ying proposed peace.

Konoha also suffered heavy casualties, so Thousand Hands agreed to the request of the second generation of Thunder Shadow.

Seven days ago, he personally led the peace team to Yunyin Village.

For this decision, Konoha naturally will not support all of them.

The sudden war has caused countless people to lose their loved ones.

How can such a deep hatred be easily let go?

Therefore, the martial arts faction led by the Uchiha of the three major ninja clans of Konoha has actually been dissatisfied with the decision of the Thousand Hands.

Of course, Senju Kazuma is one of the founders of Konoha after all.

Uzumaki Mito, the wife of the first Hokage, also took charge of the Hokage Building after leaving Senjukuma.

During Senjuma's absence, Uzumaki Mito was solely responsible for handling Konoha affairs.

Therefore, no matter how dissatisfied the opposition is, it can only hold it in their hearts.

But discontent will inevitably grow.

This is something that Uzumaki Mito can do nothing about.

She knew that Kazuma's decision was the right one, ruthless, but it wasn't as simple as just considering casualties.

It can even be said that the decision of Thousand Hands to go to Yunyin Village in person is precisely to strive for the greatest benefits.

But these things, Konoha ordinary ninjas are not clear.

The height at which they stand determines that they cannot understand this behavior.

Therefore they need to vent.

Vent this dissatisfaction in the depression of not being able to take revenge.

The sky of Konoha is cloudy, and lightning and thunder roar.

"If you want me to say, I shouldn't have let him be the Hokage in the first place!"

"That's right, I heard from the adults in the family that it was actually the Senju who forced our patriarch away in order to be the Hokage."

"If the patriarch is the Hokage, he will definitely lead us to Yunyin Village."

"Yes, it's all the fault of a thousand hands!"

Several children, led by Uchiha, were gathered together, venting their dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Three of them, because someone in the family died in the war, were still dressed in black.

At this moment, one of the children was suddenly startled, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

He pointed ahead, his fingertips trembling, and stammered:

"Outline...... Tsunade, it's Tsunade! โ€

The other children looked down their fingers and saw Tsunade in a pure black kimono standing there, his face hanging down and his fists clenched.

The Uchiha kid at the head widened his eyes and let out a hysterical sound:

"Run, everyone!"

But apparently it was too late.

As the rain poured from the sky, Tsunade, who was only a few years old, rushed up.

With a small fist, she beat the group of children to the ground.

It wasn't until the young Tsunade got tired that the child seized the opportunity to run away.

Before escaping, I didn't forget to put aside the cruel words:

"We've written down this vendetta, and we'll be back!"

It wasn't until they were far away that Tsunade, who was standing alone in the rainstorm, began to cry.

Tears mixed with rain fell.

"You don't understand anything!"

"Mom, she also died in this war!"

Tsunade wantonly vented the sadness in his heart.

But no one here could hear it at all.

In this war, it is not only their families who have been sacrificed!

She also lost her loving mother.

The thousand-handed family also wears filial piety.

Who is not a victim in this sudden war?

"But you don't understand anything!"

Tsunade clenched his fists, as if to vent the injustice of fate, and roared hoarsely.

The small body looked thin and helpless in the rain.

"The war is not over."

The sudden sound made Tsunade's thinking stagnate, and he couldn't even understand the meaning of this sentence for a while.

She stared intently.

I saw a dog standing not far away.

This dog has black and white fur, a pointed head, almond-shaped eyes, and looks very handsome, I don't know what breed it is.

Of course, Tsunade will never know that this breed of dog is called a husky, also known as Erha.

"Are you talking?" Tsunade said confusedly.

"That's right, I'm talking."

Erha nodded and said:

"Are you here to vent your emotions, have no strength, do nothing, so that the war can end?"

Tsunade reacted and refuted with what he thought was the strongest evidence:

"The war is over, and Thunder Shadow has made a request for a peace alliance!"

Erha shook his head, laughing at Tsunade's naivety.

"In Yunyin Village, the strongest ones are actually the Golden Horn and Silver Horn who killed your mother, they are the tough main battle faction, and it doesn't make sense for Thunder Shadow to propose a peace alliance, because Golden Horn and Silver Horn will not approve of such a result, and will inevitably continue to promote the war in the end by killing Thunder Shadow and Hokage."

"Open...... Are you kidding! Uncle and grandfather are the strongest ninja in Konoha and he will bring back victory for Konoha ! โ€

Tsunade's emotions suddenly became extremely excited, and he clenched his fists and was about to go up and beat the unashamed dog.

Even if she understands that she can't deal with this adult ninja dog at all.

However, things didn't happen to her.

When she punched it, the dog didn't resist at all, and flew out upside down, fell to the ground and convulsed a little and then didn't move.

Tsunade froze in place.

She didn't even think about killing the other party.

Even if the other party is just a dog.

"It's useless."

The voice sounded behind itself again, and Tsunade's hair suddenly stood on end, and he subconsciously threw a backhand punch.

When she turned around, she found the corpse of a dog on the ground.

Tsunade looked back tremblingly, and there was indeed an identical dog corpse lying there.

"It's ...... Stand-ins? Tsunade's eyes widened.

No, no, if it's a stand-in, it should reveal a stand-in item such as a wood when attacked.

At this time, that creepy feeling struck again.

Tsunade subconsciously threw kunai in the direction of the great terror.

Poofโ€”

The sound of kunai piercing into the flesh sounded.

Then there was a "pop" and the sound of flesh falling to the ground sounded.

Tsunade trembled and looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see another dog corpse under the wall.

This is already ...... The third one, exactly the same, the corpse of the same dog!

At this moment, a sigh came.

"You're going to give me a headache like that."

Tsunade jerked his head up, his face full of fear.

I saw that the dog, who must have died three times, was standing bored on the tree at the moment, looking at himself condescendingly.

Erha shook his head, jumped down from the tree, and said as he walked towards his corpse:

"Even though there are as many substitutes as there are, I would feel very troubled if I were killed meaninglessly like this."

"Hug ...... I'm sorry. โ€

Tsunade only felt that his mind was in a mess, and he didn't know what to say at this time.

"It's not that I need you to apologize, I just think it's too wasteful."

Erha shook his head and sighed, and in the frightened gaze of the pale Tsunade, he devoured his three corpses.

In the end, there was not even blood left, as if the three dog corpses on the ground just now were just an illusion.

Tsunade asked tremblingly, "What kind of monster are you?!" โ€

"I want to be a human being."

Erha took a full break, looked at Tsunade and said:

"If you still don't believe it, let you see it with your own eyes."

Saying this, Erha took out the dogtail grass and stroked his nose, and sneezed loudly.

The next moment, the white mist that the rain could not wash away was spreading.

Tsunade subconsciously took a step back.

The next moment, I suddenly found that I was already in a completely different environment.

The trees were burning, the earth was torn apart, and the roaring explosions rang out incessantly.

It was a battlefield filled with gunpowder.

Only then did Tsunade notice that he was standing on a cliff.

She looked intently and caught her uncle and grandfather on the battlefield.

"Second grandfather!" Tsunade cried out in surprise.

At this time, the Thousand Hands were more embarrassed than ever.

He gasped, blood and dust on his body, staring straight ahead, completely oblivious to Tsunade's call.

In front of the Thousand Hands were two monsters covered in dark red chakras and beast bones, each with six tails.

The next moment, one of the crimson monsters threw a house-sized boulder into the Thousand Hands.

Bang!

The boulder smashed to the ground, kicking up a huge amount of smoke and dust.

Tsunade's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he clenched his hands tightly.

For a while, I was so frightened that I couldn't make a sound.

The light flashed, and a thousand hands appeared unharmed not far away.

But before Tsunade's heart fell, a dark red chakra claw had already struck the Thousand Hands.

At the moment of the first shot of the thousand armies, the Thousand Hands once again used the Flying Thunder God Technique to shift their positions.

And this time, the moment it landed between the thousand hands, four dark red chakra claws rose from the ground to the sky, encircling the former.

"Water escape, water breaks!"

The ultra-high-pressure water jet spat out from the mouth of the thousand hands, cutting off the four chakra claws in an instant.

Once again, the enemy's attack was disintegrated, but the massive consumption of Chakra still made Thousand Hands dizzy.

At this moment, one of the monsters had already rushed in front of the Thousand Hands.

The huge claws made up of dark red chakras grabbed the thousand hands and threw them out.

Like a kite with a broken string, it slammed into the rock wall.

"Second grandfather!" Tsunade couldn't help but scream, tears pouring out of his eyes.

Erha came to Tsunade's side and reminded:

"It's just an illusion to recreate the scene, and he won't hear you shouting through your throat."

The smoke cleared, and the surroundings changed back to rainy streets again.

Tsunade couldn't help but ask:

"Second grandfather, he ......"

"Will die, although he is still alive for the time being, but the end of death is already doomed."

Erha shrugged his shoulders and explained in a flat and straightforward tone:

"After all, the Thousand Hands are already old, and it is expected that he can't deal with the gold and silver brothers, so he must have been prepared to die."

"How can this be ......"

Tsunade's eyes lose focus, filled with despair.

If Tsunade was sure that Thousand Hands would win before, then at this moment she has been shaken.

At least seven or eight points of faith.

After all, it's just a few years old, and even if the ninja's child is far more mature than ordinary people, it can't change the fact that he is inexperienced.

Erha looked at Tsunade calmly and said lightly:

"After all, this is the fate of a thousand hands, a fate and death that he alone cannot avoid.

However, if you are chosen by me, there must be a possibility to change this sad fate. โ€

"Really...... Are you sure? Tsunade looked at his trembling hands and looked at Erha in disbelief.

"Of course, so make a pact with me and become a surrogate!"

Tsunade stared at Erha in distraction and asked sluggishly:

"Second grandfather, is he really going to die?"

"Yes, if there is no miracle, this is his fate." Erha nodded affirmatively.

Tsunade clenched his fists, his gaze hardened.

"If that's the case, if there's anything I can do, please let me know! What can I do to save Second Grandpa? โ€

"The desire to save the Thousand Hands is not a problem if you wish, and even the resurrection of the dead can be done, but before I can do so, I must confirm one thing again with you."

"What's the matter?" Tsunade was slightly stunned.

Erha exhaled and asked in a solemn tone:

"Is this a wish worth your soul for you?"

Tsunade hesitated for a moment.

She actually couldn't quite understand the other party's words, but when she thought of the second grandfather, she finally became firm:

"In order to save the second grandfather's words, yes! I'm willing to pay any price! โ€

"Even if hell lies ahead?"

"That's right!"

"Very well, now put your hand here." Erha stretched out his right paw towards Tsuna.

Tsunade didn't hesitate to get on it.

Erha's grin:

"Then, the contract is established."

The voice fell.

Tsunade suddenly felt an itch in his chest.

It was as if something was in my mind.

It was a 50-year contract with the great being of the Void Realm, the end of reincarnation.

The content of the contract is: save the world and usher in the end of the story.

"You should feel it, the proof of the contract is in the part where you feel it." Erha reminded.

Tsunade lifted the placket directly, only to notice that a string of numbers appeared on the left side of his chest.

ใ€Œ106ใ€

Erha showed a slightly surprised expression and said:

"Yes, you're the best I've seen lately."

"What does this mean by numbers?"

Tsunade wiped the number on his chest in confusion.

Erha patiently explained:

"This is the total amount of numbers you hold right now, and you can assign them to your body or skills to strengthen them.

Of course, you can also exchange numbers for what you want, but one thing you must remember is that you must never let the unassigned numbers go to zero, and once the unassigned numbers are zeroed, something worse than death will happen. โ€

"Than death...... Still something terrible? โ€

The young Tsunade swallowed, and she recalled the image of the other person eating herself.

Erha nodded solemnly and said:

"You try to put your hands on the numbers and then close your eyes and feel with your heart."

Hearing this, Tsunade did so.

Then, she noticed a strange stream of information coming to her mind.

A "virtual screen" that I shouldn't recognize, but now I can understand strangely, appears in front of me.

Tsunade could see that on the virtual screen, there was a miniature version of himself, with various data displayed on the side.

Name: Senju Tsunade

Intrinsic Skills:

Immortal human body, five-star Lv.0 (?) /๏ผŸ ๏ผ‰

Skills:

Strange Power, Samsung Lv.0 (0/100)

Chakra Refining, 1 Star Lv.3 (0/5)

Transfiguration, Starless Lv.4 (0/1)

Stand-in, Starless Lv.1 (0/1)

Holding number: 106/0

"I've already mastered the strange power." Erha once again showed a surprised look.

Tsunade was stunned for a moment, but the extra information in her mind allowed her to understand what was in front of her.

"It's ...... What ninjutsu do I master? But what is this immortal body? โ€

Erha explained meaningfully:

"That's the ancestral chromosome of your Thousand Hands clan, I have something more powerful, but you can't bear it now, so I can't give it to you."

"Ancestral chromosomes?" Tsunade obviously didn't understand this, and his little face was full of confusion.

Erha shook his head and said:

"I don't have time to explain, I'll talk about this later, if you don't save the Thousand Hands, maybe it'll be too late."

Hearing this, Tsunade immediately panicked.

"So, what should I do?"

But she didn't feel that she had become stronger, how could she save her uncle and grandfather?

"Since you have signed a contract with me, I will naturally grant your wish."

As he spoke, a golden ripple suddenly appeared at his feet, and a pink gate appeared out of thin air.

"Basic Arbitrary Door, if you use this, you can instantly reach any place in the world within ten light years."

"Of course, the premise is that you have the map coordinates."

Erha put his paw on the doorknob and gently pulled the door open, and the four holes on the edge of the door frame spewed out a faint steam.

"I'll record the coordinates of the Land of Thunder, come in with me." Erha Chao Tsunade said.

When the pink gate opened, Tsunade was presented not with the familiar streets of Konoha, but with a gloomy forest.

On the other side of the door, there was a faint roaring explosion.

Erha, who walked into any door half-body, turned around and urged:

"If I hesitate any longer, even I won't be able to return to heaven at that time."

Hearing this, Tsunade gritted his teeth, forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, and resolutely walked into the arbitrary door.

Bang!

The pink gate closes again, and Erha and Tsunade disappear into the streets of Konoha out of thin air.

And as any door sank into the golden ripples, there was no trace of it anymore.

The rain washed everything away, as if the girl and the dog had never existed.

Moments later, two Konoha shadows wearing animal masks arrived at the scene.

Male Shadow: "Not here. โ€

Female Shadow: "I'll go back and report to Mito-sama, you can look elsewhere." โ€

The male nodded slightly, and then the figures of the two disappeared into the street.
