And as if sensing the chaos in Tsunade's heart, the scene where Rokudo Payne rushed towards Jiraiya suddenly switched to Konoha.

It was pouring rain outside the window, and a blonde woman stood in front of the window with her back to them, looking at the vast rain outside, without saying a word.

The place where she was was familiar to everyone - it was the Hokage's office in Konoha.

Jiraiya let out an "ah" and finally spoke: "It's the Tsunade of that world......"

Tsunade: "......"

The mute in the illusion said: "Don't worry about Jiraiya, he is not so easy to ......"

But Tsunade interrupted her and said, "He can't come back." ”

Shizune was taken aback by her assertion so firmly: "Huh? ”

Seeing Tsunade smiling reluctantly, he turned his head, as if to comfort her, and as if he was deceiving himself: "That's how I gambled...... I'm not going to lose every gamble? ”

Zilai has also vaguely realized that he may really die at the hands of "Payne". But as a party, he seemed to be very uncomfortable no matter how he behaved, so he had to pretend to be stupid as always, trying to make the atmosphere a little more relaxed and joking: "You are smiling so ugly, Tsunade." Are you so worried about me? ”

Tsunade ignored him.

After realizing that he might have to witness Jiraiya's death, Tsunade remained silent.

“…… Just pretend. At this time, he turned his head and continued to look at the other Tsunade who was raining outside the window, and said in a low voice: "When I come back, you can't be asked to pretend anymore if you want to......"

Hearing this, Zilai was stunned: "...... Hey? ”

He was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously reached out and wanted to pat the shoulder of the Tsunade next to him, and asked, "What does this mean?" ”

Tsunade opened his hand irritably, inexplicably uneasy and angry: "How would I know!" ”

And the next moment, Jiraiya was already in front of her eyes, and her throat was stabbed.

“……！！”

"Ah...... It's a bit miserable to look at it this way......" Jiraiya looked at his other self who fell in front of him, trying to alleviate the impact of his death with a gag, but when he turned his head to see Tsunade's expression, he couldn't smile anymore.

"Wait, wait, wait!" He rushed to Tsunade in a panic, trying to block his death, "Hey! Your hemophobia is just right, won't it recur again!! ”

“……”

Suddenly it was dark again, and they already understood that this was a signal for the transformation of space in the monthly reading. And when the surroundings lit up again, Tsunade had already reluctantly shown a smile: "...... Rest assured. I...... ...... for this kind of thing Already, very experienced. ”

Jiraiya looked at her, but couldn't say a word.

At this time, Akatsuki had already decided to attack the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails, so Payne Rokudo directly attacked Konoha.

However, as more and more people come into contact with it, secrets become less and less able to be called secrets.

Although they knew that the scene that Uchiha Itachi showed was to explain Payne's abilities to them, however, when a doppelganger exactly like Yahiko appeared next to the fifth Hokage Tsunade, everyone who was angry and helpless because of Danzang's actions suddenly tensed their nerves again.

- If they could, they would have risked everything to fight, but in this illusion, they are absolute spectators, and nothing can be done.

Payne stared at Tsunade, who was protected by the shadows, and said ruthlessly: "It's been a long time, Tsunade-sama, the former three ninjas, only you are left." ”

If it weren't for the fact that Tsunade and Orochimaru were still alive when they fought against Madara Uchiha later, I'm afraid everyone would have thought that Tsunade would have died here at this moment.

But even so, they couldn't help but tense their bodies, worried about something unexpected.

It wasn't until they saw Naruto go to Nagato's location, and after some conversation, Nagato risked his life and used the reincarnation innate technique, and died as a result, that everyone was silent and relaxed.

In the end, the picture is frozen in the scene where Xiao Nan hands out a large bouquet of paper flowers, and it is reduced to nothingness.

……

Seeing that I closed the writing wheel eyes out of breath, the thoughts of the three generations of Hokage seemed to be still indulging in the illusion just now, and after a while, he came back to his senses and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Itachi." ”

I shook my head and said, "The intel on Payne, the truth about Akatsuki, and the plans of the people behind the scenes...... Basically I've shown it all. It's not certain if the world will continue to develop like this, but just in case......"

I gasped: "I think it's necessary for us to reclaim those reincarnation eyes. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was silent for a while.

"It's true that the eye of reincarnation is the key thing, but ......," the third Hokage muttered, "If it is known that the eye of reincarnation is in Konoha, it will become a trend that I am in the light and the enemy is in the dark." It would be good if the Uchiha Dai came to the door in person, but I am afraid that she will secretly provoke other countries to make trouble against Konoha......"

"What do the three generations of Hokage-sama mean......" I paused, "If you want to recover the eye of reincarnation, you must not reveal the identity of the Konoha ninja?" ”

"That's right. Itachi, I want you to be the captain of this mission. Of course, I will send the Shadows to disguise myself as your subordinate and assist you in your mission. ”

Really...... A person who is strong and friendly to Konoha and will not betray at will......

If you can't reveal the identity of the Konoha ninja, there is no better place to be than "the person on the other side".

However, if this is a normal order, it is definitely an S-class mission, right?

Ah, damn it, my reward!

I thought for a moment and replied, "That's the case...... I have two requests. ”

The three generations of Hokage were slightly stunned and said, "What? ”

"First of all, please combine the reward of the S-class mission that the Uchiha Kite took back last time with the reward of the S-class mission this time...... Leave it to the Uchiha Kite. ”

The kite has never cared much about money and other things, so I should leave her with her for safekeeping, and it should not be a problem for me to take it from her when the time comes...... And it's safe.

"And the second request is about Orochimaru infiltrating the village. When it comes to the village's protection system, a thorough investigation must be a matter of course...... However, I hope that the information that will be found out will be delivered to me first. ”

The three generations of Hokage frowned: "...... What does that mean? ”

"It's really unreasonable, but I'm sorry, I have someone to protect. And I can also guarantee that that person will not do anything to harm Konoha in the future, and he will never be a vicious and dangerous person. So...... I hope that everything that the person did before can be written off. I'm going to destroy only the information about that person, and I'll hand over everything else. ”

"......" The three generations of Hokage were silent for a long time, and this kind of thing, Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Akane Hagi couldn't interfere with it.

Eventually, he nodded, "Okay." ”

The three Hokages stared at me seriously and said, "I trust you, Itachi. ”

"In that case," I softened slightly, "I'll be left alone with this task." ”

“…… Alone, is that okay? ”

"Don't forget...... 'The Man on the Other Side' is not just one person. I, with a lot of companions. ”

"That's it......" Thinking that there were still four generations of Hokage and himself among the people on the other side, as well as characters like the second generation Hokage, the third generation Hokage couldn't help but feel a little confident: "Then please." Weasel. ”

……

After Uchiha Itachi left, Akane Hagi also left.

"The Flower of Hope That Never Fades......"

The three generations of Hokage stood in front of the window, looking at the Hokage Rock outside the window, muttering to himself and repeating Xiao Nan's words, and couldn't help but smile with relief: "You have accepted a very good apprentice, Jiraiya." ”

"......" Jiraiya, who was standing behind the teacher, showed a strange expression, and the three generations of Hokage realized that Naruto Uzumaki did not exist in the world they were in.

"In that case...... the third Hokage muttered, "Sure enough, you might as well take Naruko as a disciple as soon as possible." Anyway, when you took the middle ninja exam, didn't you already teach her for a while? ”

......Hearing this, Jiraiya's expression became even stranger.

He frowned and was silent for a while before he finally made up his mind and said, "...... I know. ”

"And, Tsunade," the third Hokage turned to look at the blonde woman standing on the other side, "are you still holding on to it?" Judging from Itachi's monthly reading, you are undoubtedly a very good Hokage! ”

"......" Tsunade's gaze also stared at the Hokage Rock outside the window, and after a while, she whispered, "I'm still ...... I want to be the one who stands by the Hokage and assists him more than the Hokage......"

"Hey!" Speaking of this, Tsunade looked straight at Jiraiya, without the slightest hint of joking: "Become the Hokage, Jiraiya." ”

"......" sensed her absolute seriousness, and Zilai was silent for a moment, and then sighed long: "Alas, I really can't help it, I still want to continue writing books...... But...... If you're willing to stay with me and help me, I'll have no problem! ”

"Okay," Tsunade said.

Seeing that Zilai was stunned in place, she smiled: "Then it's decided." ”
