"I'm sorry, Naruto-kun, are you alright?" After Tsunade left, Shizune didn't leave with her immediately, but hurriedly helped Naruto up who fell to the ground.

"How can it be okay, it just hurts me to death." When Naruto stood up, he felt the pain coming from all over his body, especially his face, and couldn't help but complain.

In fact, Tsunade didn't use much strength, after all, Naruto was just a child in her eyes, and his actions didn't make Tsunade really angry, but the problem was that Naruto was planted face to the ground, and his whole body fell to the ground at the same time, although Naruto's physique was not injured, but the pain caused was still very strong, especially the face was the most serious, and his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and it looked really miserable from the visual effect alone.

But speaking of which, Naruto has been beaten much worse than this in the competition with Sakura since he was a child, and he still doesn't care, he will have such a big resentment now, and the bigger reason is that he is dissatisfied with what Tsunade said.

Naruto clenched his fists, remembering the contemptuous and even contemptuous look of Tsunade when he talked about the Hokage just now, his face was unhappy, he gritted his teeth and said: "This guy, how dare to insult the Hokage, and say that only a fool can be a Hokage, it's really hateful, it's just a villain like Orochimaru......"

"That's not the case, Tsunade is not a person like Orochimaru." Shizune suddenly interrupted Naruto loudly, and then she looked at Naruto, who was slightly stunned, and lowered her head, her expression darkened, but she still tried to defend Tsunade, "Sorry, my voice was too loud. ”

"It's just, Tsunade-sama, she'...... It's not usually like this, although she has been away from the village for more than ten years, but the status of the village in her heart has always been maintained, and it's only because she was stimulated by Orochimaru today that she said something like that, which was not actually her intention, I hope you can forgive her. ”

After saying that, she bowed to everyone, "I'm so sorry for the trouble I caused you, I'll go first, Tsunade-sama she drank so much, I have to follow her." ”

"What, the person who would say that the Hokage is stupid actually said that Konoha has a very high status in her heart, how is it possible." After Shizune left, Naruto looked disapproving, muttering quietly, apparently he didn't believe Shizune's words.

"In vain, I thought she was a good person just now, and I was still a little grateful to her, which is really blinding."

"Well, Naruto, I think you really should be grateful to her." Listening to Naruto's complaints, Sakura, who had been watching the whole process, shrugged her shoulders and said lightly.

"What? Thank her? Naruto pointed to his injured face and looked at Sakura incredulously, "Sakura, you're not kidding, are you?" Look at my face, she beat me like this, you still want me to thank her, how is this possible? ”

Sakura held out a finger and wiggled, "No, no, no, that's not how things work." ”

"Naruto, don't forget, you took the initiative to provoke others just now."

"Moreover, the other party has actually shown mercy."

"You know, the person who beat you is a ninja with the same name as your teacher Jiraiya and Orochimaru, who killed the three generations of Hokage, and is also qualified to succeed the Hokage, do you think that with her strength, if you really get serious, can you still stand here now?"

Sakura spread her hands and said, "I guess...... Even the corpse is already cold, right? ”

"This ......" Naruto scratched his head, after listening to Sakura's words, he thought about it carefully, and found that what Sakura said seemed to make a lot of sense, although he hadn't seen that woman make a move, but just based on the fact that the other party could be selected by Konoha as the fifth Hokage, it is estimated that the strength will far surpass him, right?

Naruto's dream is to become a Hokage, yes, but he is still very self-aware, at least he knows that with his current strength, there is still a big gap between becoming a Hokage.

But although Naruto admitted in his heart that Sakura was right, it didn't mean that he could forgive or even be grateful to Tsunade.

He turned his head and looked at Jiraiya angrily, "Lustful immortal, what kind of vision do you have with those senior advisors, is such a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death and does not dare to sacrifice for the village also deserve to be the fifth Hokage?" ”

Naruto said this, and suddenly remembered the way he saw Tsunade being grabbed by Orochimaru's hair when he first came here before, and quickly added, "And is that old woman's strength really enough?" Just now, I saw that she didn't even have the strength to fight back in front of Orochimaru. ”

Although Naruto didn't know Tsunade's exact age, since she was also a companion with Jirai, even if she looked young, she must be very old, so he naturally called Tsunade an old woman.

"Naruto." Jiraiya rolled his eyes and looked at him speechlessly, "Don't you think you're too lenient, since the elders have chosen to let Tsunade become the fifth Hokage, there must be their considerations, and it's not your turn to worry about a single shinobi." ”

"You just have to accept this result, I can tell you that Tsunade is already the most suitable person to succeed the Hokage at the moment, and there can't be a more suitable person than her."

"Why?"

"It's nerve-wracking." Jiraiya looked at Naruto's unconvinced look, and patted his forehead helplessly, "Forget it, since you want to know so much, then I'll give you this stupid science popularization." ”

Jiraiya's face showed a look of remembrance, and he said slowly, "Tsunade, she has made outstanding contributions to Konoha in the past. ”

"Naruto, you said she didn't have the strength to fight back in front of Orochimaru, but what you don't know is that compared to her medical skills, her combat power doesn't matter."

"At the beginning, when almost everyone, including me, was not optimistic, she relied on her own strength to support the medical ninja system, and finally had to let the three generations of Hokage give in, admitting that he had no vision."

Medical ninjas were first proposed by Tsunade.,There is no precedent before.,So it's unknown how the effect is.,But the training of medical ninjas requires huge resources.,And the combat effectiveness of general medical ninjas is very weak.,Like Tsunade, medical skills are strong and combat power is very rare.,That is to say, if you train a medical ninja,Konoha will lose about a quarter of its combat power.,And this is fatal for Konoha who is at war with multiple countries at the same time.。

So when Tsunade first proposed it, the three generations of Hokage and the advisors did not agree with it, although Kato Tsunade supported Tsunade, but the two of them alone were not enough to make the high-level people change their minds, after all, Kato Tsunade was just an ordinary shinobi, and if it was three ninja together, it would be about the same.

In the end, it was Tsunade who saved many ninjas who were bound to die on the battlefield with her own excellent medical skills, and let them recover their combat effectiveness, relying on her alone, so that the casualties of the Konoha ninja were reduced to only half of what they were before, and with Tsunade's medical skills, as long as it was not a mortal injury, it could basically be saved.

When the facts were in front of them, several high-level officials of Konoha had to admit that the effort was nothing compared to the gains that could be brought by establishing a medical ninja, and their attitude towards Tsunade changed from indifference to enthusiasm.

"Of all the current shinobi in Konoha, about seventy percent or more of them are people who have received the favor of Tsunade, and if Tsunade were to be the Hokage, they would definitely support her."

Naruto was silent, although he didn't know much about the specific situation of the medical ninja, but it was still very understandable to halve the casualties of the entire Konoha ninja, and he also knew how difficult it was, you must know that the total number of ninjas in Konoha was as high as tens of thousands, even if you excluded the type of dark department and ninja school teachers who would not go to the battlefield, there were more than 20,000, such a big credit, being the Hokage was indeed more than enough.

But Jiraiya didn't let him go, since he talked to Naruto, he simply said more.

"In addition to meritorious deeds, Tsunade's identity is unmatched in Konoha."

"You should have heard the conversation just now, Tsunade's grandfather is the founder of Konoha, that is, the first Hokage, and at the same time, the younger brother of the first Hokage is the second Hokage of Konoha, that is to say, Tsunade's two grandfathers are Hokage.

The granddaughters of the two Hokage, even if Naruto is stupid, knows what this means, not to mention anything else, there is such an example by his side, his younger brother Konohamaru is a little kid, and he has the guidance of the upper ninja every day, although Ebisu's strength is very watery, and it is only by relying on teaching experience that he is promoted to a special upper ninja......

Jiraiya gave Naruto a moment to digest the news, then looked at him and asked, "How about Naruto, do you still think the advisor's decision was wrong?" ”

Naruto didn't speak, shaking his head slightly.

"Very well, in that case, let's go find Tsunade quickly, while she hasn't gone far yet, I don't want to look for someone in this ghost place anymore." Jiraiya nodded and said.

Although Tsunade rejected him, Jiraiya didn't expect to convince Tsunade once, so he didn't care, but was ready to fight a protracted battle, and he would never give up until Tsunade agreed to go back.

"Boss, check out."

"Hello guest, the total cost is xxxx taels." An attendant walked over, took one look, and said.

Jiraiya exclaimed, "What? It's just these few dishes, how can there be so many? ”

"The cost of the meal is only a small part of it, because the little brother next to you just did something, he broke a lot of plates, and the fight in the store has caused very bad consequences, which will affect our future business, and ......" The waiter counted carefully with his fingers.

Jiraiya: "......"

......

"Tsunade-sama, let's go back, don't come to this kind of place again, okay?" Standing in front of a casino, he looked at Tsunade with a wry smile.

But Mute's words were completely ignored by Tsunade as she had been in front of the slot machine shop before, and she strode into the casino.

Orochimaru's words kept echoing in her ears, making Tsunade Ji feel very bad now, so she had to vent this bad mood.

And for her, is there a second best way to vent besides gambling?

Of course, the answer was no, so, after coming out of the tavern, Tsunade, who was already half-drunk, did not hesitate and went straight to the casino she had frequented most in the previous few days, even if she was dissuaded by the silence that came later, she still did not change her mind.

She's going to forget all the damn things and take a gamble.

"Huh? This big sister, you're here again, welcome, welcome. The casino owner, who was originally leaning on the counter and was drowsy, saw Tsunade walk in, and instantly perked up, with a bright smile on his face, and greeted Tsunade warmly.

As for why he is so enthusiastic about Tsunade, it is because Tsunade will lose every time he gambles, not even once he wins, and he is very bold in his shots, and he never defaults, in just a few days, he has made a lot of money from Tsunade, and now in his eyes, Tsunade is simply a moving banknote, and he came to give him money.

What this casino owner doesn't know is that he was lucky, and he happened to run into Tsunade when his funds were more sufficient, and many of his peers were not so lucky, Tsunade lost when he had no money, but he left directly, with her strength, no one could stop him if he wanted to run......

At the same time, many gamblers in the casino also focused their eyes on Tsunade after seeing Tsunade come in, and whispered to the people around him while watching.

"Look, the big fat sheep is here again." A gambler said to his companion.

His companion had a surprised look on his face, "What? Is that the stupid person you said before that you are going to lose every gamble is her? ”

In the short time that Tsunade stayed in Shortbook Street, her famous name as a big fat sheep spread rapidly and unscientifically in all the casinos in Shortbook Street, almost to the point where everyone knew about it.

Such a conversation resounded in all corners of the casino, and many gamblers who had heard her before but had never seen her looked at Tsunade with curious eyes.

"Okay, let's play with this." Tsunade sat down at a gaming table, she came to vent her bad emotions, and she was not in the mood to play something too complicated, so she chose the easiest guess of the size of the dice.

"Tsunade-sama, don't you want it, you're like this now, let's go back and rest." Shizune followed, and tried to convince Tsunade to pull back at the last minute.

Tsunade waved his hand and said indifferently, "It's okay, it's okay, haven't you seen it before, I've won so many times in one go, and now my luck is just right, it's impossible to lose." ”

Tsunade even rolled up the sleeves of her hands, she put on a posture of preparing to do a big job, and said confidently, "Mute, you can rest assured, today I must win back all the money I lost here before!" ”
