Konoha seems to have become a little strange.

Tsunade never thought that the Hokage's duties would turn out to be like this.

If he doesn't succeed the fifth generation Hokage, the Hokage in the village will assist Akihara Kagura and be lawless and brazenly launch a new round of ninja war.

In the past, the Hokage in the village was dealing with dangers from the outside, and now the purpose of making himself the successor Hokage is actually to suppress the Hokage in the village?

"Are you kidding?"

The corners of Tsunade's mouth hooked into a mocking smile, and he looked at Jiraiya and said, "There's no need to tell such a lie, do you think I'll believe it?" Could it be that the rest of the village would follow his orders to start a ninja war? ”

"I'm not kidding."

Jiraiya shook his head and continued with a serious expression: "Tsunade, you should remember Danzo, right? Kagura inherited the roots of Danzo, and since he was a child, he was used as a tool to kill people by Danzo, acting decisively and toughly, and the old man and I taught him for several years, and it took a little bit to change his attitude, but it is still difficult to change his tough attitude towards the outside world..."

"One more thing..."

"Kagura's power is extremely powerful."

Jiraiya looked into Tsunade's eyes and continued to explain in a deep voice, "Since I was a child, Kagura has never lost once in the face of any enemy, which has also given him infinite confidence, and in the face of any enemy, he has a strong belief that he will be able to kill the enemy..."

"But war was an area he had never touched, and he was always curious about how far he could go in war..."

"This time, the Sand Hidden Village and the Fog Hidden Village have set off a riot in Konoha and it is a great opportunity for Kagura, even though the Fog Hidden Village and the Sand Hidden Village have proposed peace talks, Kagura still has no permission and is determined to take this opportunity to start a war, and the advice of the two Hokage advisors cannot shake his will at all..."

This is actually an extremely embarrassing place in Konoha politics.

If Akihara Kagura was the Hokage, perhaps the advice of the two Hokage's advisors should be respected, lest the Hokage have a reputation as an arbitrary;

However, Akihara Kagura is only the Hokage's assistant, not the supreme leader of Konoha, and nominally he only has the same or slightly higher status as the two Hokage advisors...

At this point in time, Akihara Kagura can be autocratic, but he doesn't need to bear the reputation of being autocratic, not to mention that Akihara Kagura shouldn't care about this.

“……”

Tsunade immediately sensed the trouble.

If he really succeeded the Hokage, the first thing he did was to engage in infighting, what would it mean for this Hokage to take over?

If he doesn't take over as Hokage, the once brutal ninja war is likely to come again, and I don't know how many people will have to die...

This Hokage's position...

It feels like a hot potato!

"Kagura isn't that kind of person!"

Naruto Uzumaki interrupted the exchange between them, very dissatisfied with Jiraiya's slander of Akihara Kagura: "Kagura doesn't want war or anything..."

"Shut up!"

Jiraiya glanced at Naruto Uzumaki coldly, and said in a deep voice, "You're just a shinobi, how can you understand high-level things!" ”

"Even if Kagura doesn't want to start a war, there is no one to settle the conflict between the village and other ninja villages yet, and the enemy country will definitely not let go of this opportunity to attack Konoha ..."

"I'll protect Konoha well!"

Naruto Uzumaki stretched out his palm and slapped it heavily on his chest: "I will try to become the Hokage, and then resolve the conflict between Konoha and the enemy country, so that there will be no more wars in the ninja world!" ”

“……”

There was a faint weirdness in Jiraiya's eyes.

This moment...

The words of the Great Toad Immortal echoed in his mind again!

But...

Now is not the time!

"You idiot!"

Jiraiya smashed a punch on Naruto Uzumaki's head, and scolded coldly: "Even if you want to become the Hokage, you have to wait until you grow up, and when you grow up to become the Hokage, the ninja war will have already broken out, maybe even you will have to go to the battlefield..."

When Jiraiya said this, his eyes looked at Tsunade again, and there was some unfinished meaning in his eyes: "Tsunade, if the war breaks out, you should also know the probability of surviving the war with this kind of imp who wants to be the Hokage, right?" ”

“……”

Tsunade's heart hurts.

Because her younger brother Rope Tree once wanted to become the Hokage, but in the end he was killed by the Detonator in the war, and even her lover Kato Kato died in the war...

"Then let him die."

Tsunade closed his eyes and pretended not to care: "Isn't this kind of imp who is full of just wants to be the Hokage die in the end?" ”

Tsunade closed his eyes, raised his head, and continued to himself: "Maybe they know how to retreat a little, and they can probably survive if they hide behind others during the war and don't rush to the front, right?" ”

"I'm not going to die!"

Naruto Uzumaki looked at Tsunade with anger on his face and declared loudly, "I won't die until I become Hokage!" I won't hide behind anyone else, I'll rush to the front to protect the village..."

"Absolutely!"

"Absolutely!"

"No back-down!"

“……”

Tsunade fell silent suddenly.

"Let's learn the technique called Spiral Pill first!"

Tsunade said coldly, took off a pendant from his neck, and suddenly threw it to Naruto Uzumaki: "Bet, if you can learn that technique in a week, I believe that you will become the Hokage, and I believe that you will not die..."

"Tsunade-sama!"

Shizune looked at Tsunade in some surprise.

"What..."

Naruto Uzumaki also looked at the pendant in his hand with some curiosity, and didn't seem to find anything magical, so he wanted to throw the pendant away.

"It's a treasure left behind by the first Hokage-sama."

Jiraiya looked at Naruto Uzumaki and said with a chuckle, "It is said to be a unique gem in this world, and the money from the sale can be exchanged for three mountains..."

“！！！”

Naruto Uzumaki opened his mouth wide in surprise.

“……”

Shizune looked at Naruto Uzumaki with some concern.

Tsunade didn't pay much attention to it, just turned away with a heavy heart, her eyes slightly open, and there were some moist tears in her eyes.

Just at that moment...

It reminded her of her brother Rope Tree.

Her younger brother Rope Tree will not flinch in order to protect Konoha so-called, and even rushed to the forefront in the war, only to die in the enemy's detonation charm trap...

If...

If you don't want to become a Hokage...

If you don't stop that Hokage assistant named Akihara Kagura...

That imp named Naruto Uzumaki will also die in the war, right?

And...

That jewelry...

Tsunade closed her eyes again, leaning against a wall, and lowered her head to remember the person she missed, the person she had given her jewelry.

"This jewelry..."

Shizune stared at the jewelry and continued, "This is the most important thing for Tsunade-sama, no matter what difficulties she faces, she never gives up..."

"That's right..."

Naruto Uzumaki frowned, but raised his fist again, "But, she has to bet with me, right?" ”

"I didn't mean to say that."

Shizune looked at Naruto Uzumaki wearing that jewelry, and couldn't help but want to tell him the truth: "It's a piece of jewelry with bad luck, Tsunade-sama once gave it to the people who are most important to her, but they all died without exception..."

Shizune told the story of the past: "Tsunade-sama's younger brother, like you, wanted to be the Hokage, and on his twelfth birthday, Tsunade-sama personally put this jewelry on him, hoping that he would realize his ideals, and as a result, Tsunade-sama's younger brother died in the Great Ninja War..."

"Tsunade-sama's lover Shinobu Kato..."

Shizune paused a little when he said this: "Shinobu Kato Kato also targeted the Hokage, and Tsunade-sama gave him this jewelry in the hope that he could also become the Hokage, and as a result, Kato Shinobu also died in the war..."

"It's a piece of hoodoo..."

"Tsunade-sama hoped that this jewelry would bless them with surviving and fulfilling their dream of becoming Hokage, but they still suffered bad luck and died in the war..."

"I see."

Naruto Uzumaki nodded, not in the slightest intimidated by Mute's words, and walked out of the town on his own: "Then I'll go to practice first." ”

"What?"

Shizune looked at Naruto Uzumaki with some bewilderment.

"I don't want to lose!"

Naruto Uzumaki showed a bright and confident smile and said seriously, "I will learn Spiral Maru, I will survive, and I will become Hokage!" ”

“！！！”

Shizune looked at Naruto Uzumaki with a shocked face, and a smile slowly appeared on his face as he watched the little guy run out of the city.

"Don't worry about Naruto's little ghost..."

Jiraiya watched Naruto Uzumaki's back as he left, and continued softly, "This little imp is more tenacious than anyone I've ever seen..."

"I need to worry more about it now..."

When Jiraiya said this, his eyes looked in the direction where Tsunade left: "It's still the situation in the village, if we go back too late..."

"Jiraiya-sama."

Shizune looked at Jiraiya and continued to ask with an ugly expression, "Is the situation in the village really as serious as you described?" The Hokage in the village, assisted by Lord Akihara Kagura, is he really going to start a ninja war? ”

"Actually..."

"It's a little more serious than I described."

Jiraiya glanced at Mute, and his eyes gradually became serious: "Didn't you meet Orochimaru?" Orochimaru wants to lure Tsunade into resurrecting the rope tree and the broken technique, called the Filthy Earth Reincarnation Technique, which is a technique that requires the sacrifice of life to use..."

"Hmm..."

Shizune nodded, a little puzzled.

"Kagura has mastered this technique, too."

Jiraiya stared at Shizun and continued, "The old man was worried that he would not be able to solve the Great Snake Pill before he died, so he asked Kagura to learn the Filthy Earth Reincarnation Technique in advance to fight against the Great Snake Pill..."

“……”

Shizune was scared by Jiraiya's words.

"The two Hokage advisors in the village are in favor of Akihara Kagura using the Filthy Earth Reincarnation Technique to resurrect the dead in the village, so that Konoha will not encounter a greater crisis in the future..."

Jiraiya's expression gradually calmed down, and he continued, "I hope that when Tsunade returns to the village, he will be able to prohibit Kagura from using the Dirt Reincarnation Technique, which is too evil and will make Kagura's already somewhat extreme ideas even darker..."

"Can't Jiraiya-sama stop it?"

Shizune asked curiously, "Isn't Jiraiya-sama his teacher?" You should be able to stop him, right? ”

"I can persuade Kagura."

Jiraiya nodded, shook his head again, and said, "But the two Hokage advisors in the village won't listen to me..."

"Forget it."

"There's still a little bit of time to do it, anyway."

Jiraiya feels that Tsunade has listened to his persuasion today, and may soon agree to succeed him as Hokage: "Take your time and wait for her to figure it out..."

"I'm going to tell Tsunade-sama about this."

Shizune remembered what happened to Orochimaru today, and continued, "If Tsunade-sama knew that there were also people in the village who had mastered the art of reincarnation in the soil, he probably wouldn't have reached a cooperation with Orochimaru..."

"Hey, hey, hey..."

Jiraiya was a little uneasy, and hurriedly followed the silence: "Don't let Tsunade think that Kagura will help her resurrect the broken and rope tree, in this case, it will be more troublesome..."

In fact.

Tsunade behaved rather calmly.

When Shizune told Tsunade that Akihara Kagura had mastered the reincarnation of the filthy earth, Tsunade was not moved at all, and just drank to himself.

"If Tsunade-sama really wants to see them..."

Shizune looked at Tsunade and continued, "We don't have to cooperate with Orochimaru, and the Hokage-assisted Akibara-sama Kagura in the village has also mastered the art of reincarnation in the soil..."

"I see."

Tsunade never wanted to work with Orochimaru.

Whether it is the conditions proposed by Orochimaru or the style of Orochimaru, Tsunade has never thought about cooperating with Orochimaru to resurrect Kato Broken and Rope Tree.

Because Orochimaru will continue to attack Konoha sooner or later, how can Tsunade reach a cooperation with him, and even Tsunade plans to take this opportunity to kill Orochimaru, Konoha is the village that her two grandfathers, younger brothers, and lovers have paid their lives to protect!

"Tsunade!"

Jiraiya looked at Tsunade with some hesitation and said softly, "If you want Kagura to use the Filthy Earth Reincarnation Technique, it may cause unpredictable consequences..."

"And the resurrected person of the Filthy Earth Reincarnation Technique is just a puppet of the caster, and this technique is also desecrating the soul of the dead..."

“……”

Tsunade didn't answer Jiraiya.

Tsunade put down the flask in his hand and commanded softly, "You don't have to worry about my business, let me be quiet alone..."

"Yes."

Shizune could only suppress his doubts and leave Tsunade's side.

“……”

Jiraiya could only leave Tsunade's side, and he glanced back at Tsunade's lonely figure and sighed faintly in his heart.

“……”

Tsunade still sat there calmly.

At this time, she had already decided in her heart that she had to succeed the Hokage, and she was just thinking about how she could take the opportunity to communicate with Orochimaru to kill Orochimaru here.

Outcome...

But he got the fact that Akibara Kagura also mastered the art of reincarnation in the dirt.

This kind of thing...

How not to make waves in her heart?

"In short, the Great Snake Pill is completely useless and harmful, let's kill the Great Snake Pill first..."

Tsunade raised his palm, and there were some worries in his heart: "If you can kill Orochimaru here, maybe there will be no reason for that little guy in the village to use the Filthy Earth Reincarnation Technique..."

First update!

Kagura is really a master of dreams!
