"If the fourth Hokage hadn't died, or if Sarutobi hadn't insisted on his succession, but instead elected the fifth Hokage, maybe everything would have been different."

On the way home, the two of them unconsciously slowed down their pace, and even took a long detour.

Artoria looked at the village with nostalgia and said with emotion, "Maybe the Uchiha can really take root in Konoha and merge into the will of fire that is ignited by leaves." ”

Although it has only been a few years, the village still leaves a lot of impressions on her.

As the first force to come into contact with after coming to this world, and living a stable life for a while, she has a lot of feelings.

The two of them turned a blind eye to the pedestrians, merchants, and villagers on both sides of the street.

"The Akatsuki organization will not watch the Uchiha merge into Konoha and make Konoha more and more powerful."

Itachi looked at every scene in the village from his vision, and unconsciously thought of the bits and pieces of his experience.

And after hearing Artoria's emotion, he shook his head and thought that this kind of thing could not happen, "And if the ape is not sacrificed, it will cause such a big mess, I think...... Tsunade would not be willing to take over Konoha. ”

"I can see that she has a lot of opinions about this village."

"Besides, the Uchiha and Konoha don't agree on the same philosophy."

"One hopes that all families can give up their surnames and bloodlines and take pride in their villages."

"A person who is keen to emphasize bloodline and family honor is the main thing, and they cannot understand each other."

It's not the first time Artoria has heard of such a disagreement, and Itachi has made similar arguments many years ago.

The two were ...... at the time

Her eyes were full of nostalgia, and before she knew it, so many years had passed.

The children who had a lot of immature ideas at the beginning were already the heads of the family.

"But you said that Tsunade has a lot of opinions about this village, why is that?"

But soon, Artoria grabbed the message from Itachi's words, "Tsunade should be a direct descendant of the founder of this village, and she has no reason not to like this village. ”

Looking at the people of the villagers, Itachi closed his mouth and turned to talk in a heartfelt manner under Artoria's puzzled gaze.

"I didn't say she didn't like the village."

"I mean, she can't get used to some people in this village, or maybe she's not happy with some of them, but she can't change them, so she has to leave."

"Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru are all disciples of Ape Fei Hi Chop, with their excellent resumes, there is no doubt that someone will take over the position of Sarufei Hi Chop more than ten years ago, but in fact, except for Orochimaru who retains some interest, the other two all refuse."

"They left the village and wandered around the Fire Nation in their own way, living."

"Even compared to Jiraiya, who occasionally has some contact with Konoha, Tsunade has no intersection with Konoha at all, and has never returned to the village to visit old friends and teachers."

Speaking of this, he paused, "And after returning to the village, she took an extremely tough attitude to force the Konoha higher-ups to grant rights directly, otherwise they would refuse to succeed the Hokage. ”

"And judging from some of the meetings held by Konoha from time to time during this time, she is very dissatisfied with many old people of Sarutobi's generation, or rather, she looks down on their thoughts and practices."

During this time, although the Uchiha was busy relocating and the matter of intelligence gathering was delayed a little, he was not completely ignorant.

After taking office, Tsunade first counted the high-ranking personnel in the village.

Among them, many people who are already considered old among ninjas have been directly retired by her, or removed from positions of real power.

In their place were some of the younger ninjas in the village, including ninjas who were not from their families.

It can be seen that in the area of cultivation and exercise, her ideas are very bold.

You must know that during the reign of Ape Fei Ri Slash, even Shangnin may not be able to get real power.

The positions that basically have real power are divided among the seniors, including the patriarchs of many ninja families, in addition to being the patriarchs of their own clans, they basically hold some positions in Konoha at the same time.

Perhaps among them, the ape flying sun slash also includes winning over all ethnic groups, changing family concepts, and reducing the error rate of affairs...... Some thoughts.

But there is no doubt that his approach is biased towards safety.

Tsunade is different, even if it's just a shinobi, she's willing to give them the opportunity to try and exercise.

But this audacity coincides with Itachi, who arranged for Hui and the two young men to go to the intelligence chain to negotiate matters.

Everything you do is risky, even if it's nurturing talent.

It's like I've never seen blood in peace.,Honestly spent six years in the ninja school and graduated from the lower ninja,

There is a big difference between being in a time of war and graduating from a ninja school early and being forced to step on the battlefield.

If it is because we are afraid that young people will make mistakes, so we put the practice in the hands of experienced and qualified people, then there will always be only a few people who can stand out like a wave of wind and water and overpower the older generation.

Is it only when people are forty or fifty years old that they can think calmly and wisely because of decades of experience?

"In fact, it is not uncommon for people who were talented and full of meridians when they were young to become dull and muddy when they are old."

Artoria also agrees with Tsunade's approach, "In the history of Britain, the old king has always left a lot of unbearable history, but when he was young, he had glorious political achievements. ”

"All in all, even if we leave, Konoha won't be so calm when he wants to."

Itachi turned around and looked at the already faint Hokage building in the center of Konoha in the distance with a frown, "Perhaps...... Koharu and Mito Menyan will abdicate soon, and Ken may not be sure, and I have this premonition in my heart. ”

Judging by the confrontation between the two in the office just now, as well as the information we have recently obtained.

"Don't think about it."

The thoughts in his heart stopped, and Itachi could feel two slightly rough but warm fingers gently against his furrowed brows, and at the same time, a serious but somewhat helpless voice came into his ears.

When his eyes were raised, a gentle and beautiful face appeared in his field of vision.

"It's time for you to relax and relax, remember the advice I gave you as a senior?"

"And we'll leave tomorrow, no matter what happens to Konoha, as long as it can become a shield of the Fire Country, it's none of our business."

"What we should be thinking about now is that we are about to leave Konoha, should we do something before we leave?"

With a little girlish delicacy in her cold voice, Itachi quietly listened to the words that came into her ears, watching Artoria speak, her nose unconsciously twitched, and she couldn't help but sniff the scent coming from her.

Not a special perfume smell, but a smell that belongs to her.

It smells good, at least for yourself, it's attractive.

"For example, why don't you go to the food court and eat everything you want?"

Itachi tried to control the pace of her breathing as she said the response she wanted to hear, unconsciously turning her head away from the fingers between her eyebrows.

"That's a good offer, Itachi."

Almost as soon as his response fell, Artoria took his hand in satisfaction and walked in the direction of the food court.
