farewell , konoha

Chapter 94 Report!

Here, Shengshu stared into the distance, and he was not surprised by the outcome of this battle.

Although his original intention was to let Tsunade break through the anemia, the goal was achieved, even better, but the way was a little unexpected.

Tsunade's punch not only meant the elimination of bloodphobia, but also eliminated the last trace of love between Jiraiya and Konoha.

From now on, Tsunade also drew a clear line between herself and Konoha, not like before.

If he had taken action to kill Jiraiya, the effect would not be what it is now, but...

"I'm sorry, sister!"

Naoki spoke slowly, looking at Tsunade and Shizune who arrived, with apologetic eyes.

"I wanted to see if Jiraiya would really kill me, but obviously, it's a pity..."

Jiraiya finally made a killing move and didn't hold anything back.

"But it can help my sister get rid of his bloodphobia and get rid of Konoha. When I attack Konoha later, I won't make my sister difficult to make a choice."

Because Tsunade took action against Jiraiya, such an intelligence report would have a completely different meaning.

Tsunade naturally understood and didn't care very much: "Nasaki, there is no need to apologize. Even if this incident hadn't happened, I would never return to Konoha."

"What's more, what they did has already wiped away all my affection for Konoha."

Although it was her brother who set her up, Tsunade didn't mind, but it made her feel a little more guilty.

It was clear that he couldn't do anything to help his brother, but in the end he still let his brother take care of his own feelings.

"Let's go, take Shizune and I to the place where you are temporarily staying." Tsunade stood up, looked at the somewhat dazed rope tree, and couldn't help but reach out her hand to ravage it.

He chuckled and said: "Why, don't you want to learn medical ninjutsu and my strange power?"

Shengshu smiled and nodded: "Well, then I will take you there."

Raising his hand, the materialized chakra turned into a phoenix bird, its drooping wings turned into steps, and the rope tree invited the two of them.

He held their hands and led them to the back of the phoenix bird. The phoenix bird below spread its wings and flew towards the sky.

And this scene was also seen by two shadow clones approaching from a distance. They looked at each other and dispersed into smoke with a bang.

Kakashi and Yamato in another place felt their hearts sinking at the memory of receiving feedback.

Yamato said: "Senior Kakashi, the goal is indeed as Jiraiya-sama said in his last words, he is not dead."

Kakashi's eyes remained unchanged and he just nodded: "Report it truthfully!"

Yamato nodded, and the two figures began to retreat, heading towards Konoha.

…

Within the leaves.

After receiving Kakashi's report, the third generation held the scroll in his hand tightly, his body felt a little weak, and he leaned on the chair.

Jiraiya is dead!

Tsunade killed it.

The target is not dead yet...

The three pieces of news, each one a heavier blow, completely made him lose his bones and softened him.

This feeling of powerlessness and Jiraiya's death took away the last support in his heart. Even if he could die, Jiraiya would eventually be able to accept the position of Hokage.

But now, Jiraiya is dead, and the younger generation no longer has anyone who can take the lead.

Looking around, there is no one who has the reputation and strength to shoulder the burden of being a Hokage.

No, not at all!

Sandai showed a bitter smile, thinking of his unsatisfactory son, and shook his head, he was still far behind.

As for everyone else…

The three generations emerged one after another, and finally fell silent. No one is good enough to become Hokage. Who else can carry the main beam of Hokage?

"Hiruzen!"

As the knock on the door rang and Danzo's voice rang out, the decadent aura on Sandai's body was swept away and he returned to his normal appearance.

"Come in!"

Danzo opened the door and walked in. In just a moment, Danzo felt that the third generation had a different atmosphere than usual, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

What happened?

Sandai looked at him and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"

The calm voice seemed to be the same as usual, but unfortunately, as a good comrade who has been together for many years.

Danzo immediately sensed something unusual about the third generation. The third generation understood him, and he also understood the third generation, and he got closer step by step.

"The project is currently preparing to conduct the first batch of tests. This is the list. If it works, I will start."

Danzo, who was holding the roster in his hand, placed the thing in front of the third generation. With a glance from the corner of his eye, he saw a piece of the latest information being caught out of the folds.

Well, Danzo was slightly confused as to what kind of news could cause Hiruzen to lose his composure like this.

In doubt, Danzo took a few steps back and stood aside, waiting for Sandai's decision.

Picking up the roster, Sandai opened it and looked carefully at the familiar names on it.

They were all once the elites of Konoha, but due to various reasons, they finally retired with regret and lived peacefully in the village.

There was nothing wrong with Danzo's list, and the selection was quite conservative, which actually surprised the third generation.

However, there are also some who have suffered serious injuries, losing arms, legs, or both.

Their lives have been paid attention to for three generations, and their lives are not easy. Even for former ninjas, losing these is not convenient.

"Well, no problem."

The moment he said these words, Danzo's eyes flashed, without showing any emotion, he took back the approved list and said casually: "Do you have any information on [Rose Tree] recently?"

The third generation picked up the cigarette bag, took a puff slowly, and asked: "Don't you even have any news about the other party?"

Danzo shook his head: "I have been busy with this matter recently. There is no latest news about the [Rope Tree]. It seems to have disappeared."

Sandai exhaled the smoke and put the pipe away: "Since I leave this matter to you, don't let me down."

"The Konoha of today is not the Konoha of the past."

As the Third Generation sighed deeply, Danzo seemed to hear the helplessness, so he said: "Don't worry, even if Konoha is empty now, it cannot be defeated by the [Rope Tree]."

"We still have time!"

Sandai said: "Maybe!"

Danzo nodded: "Then I'll get to work first."

The Sandaime watched Danzo leave, and with a creak, the door closed. He closed his eyes and leaned on the chair, exhausted.

He murmured: "Jiraiya, do you really think we're going to get to that point?"

Although he sent the thing, he didn't want Jiraiya to use it, and now that Jiraiya has passed away, he failed to succeed.

This means that he must also face up to the [Rope Tree].

"It seems that we really need to find a way to solve this matter. When Kakashi and the others come back, we will know the details."

…

Under the Hokage Building, Danzo held the list in his hand and showed a smile.

Looking back at the brightly lit Hokage's office, he thought to himself: "Hiruzhan, it seems that you do have something on your mind. Otherwise, why didn't you find the problem on this list?"

A small test every time has already become a daily trick for Danzo.

And such small tricks will always be seen through by the third generation and contained, but they will not say it out, but this time...

Danzo opened the roster, and the name in question had not been crossed out.

Today, Hiruzen was indeed a little absent-minded. It seemed that he needed to investigate what the reason was.

Danzo and Gen's figures quietly disappeared into the night, and became active again in the night.

Danzo, who came to the roots of Konoha's underground, looked at the machine being built and thought about Hiruzen's anomaly today.

Soon, not long after, a root ninja came to Danzo and whispered.

For an instant, Danzo's eye widened a bit, and then returned to its original shape.

"I see!"

The root ninja left, Danzo clutched the crutch in his hand, his body trembling slightly.

"Jiraiya is dead!"

"This is really bad news!"

The emotions that Danzo couldn't suppress in his tone were all reflected on his body.

He was excited, uncontrollably excited. If the third generation were to retire now, no one would be able to compete with him for the position of Hokage.

Jiraiya is dead.

Tsunade killed it.

This news may be the biggest bad news for Konoha, but for him, it is indeed the biggest good news.

"Hiruzhan! Hiruzen, you have calculated countless things, but in the end you still can't figure out the future."

"Now, who else can you choose, who else can take on this important responsibility!"

Danzo's excitement gradually calmed down, and now no one can compete with him in terms of fame and strength.

"Sure enough, the position of Hokage will eventually fall into my hands."

"However, there is no rush, there are some things that still need to be resolved."

"Shengshu, you really gave me a good opportunity. Perhaps, I would like to thank you."

Looking up at the instrument, as a series of bubbles sounded, these would be his trump cards.

"Then use them to entertain you well when the time comes!"

…

Kusanagi Village, night.

Under the bright moonlight, a phoenix bird made of chakra circled down and landed on the grass ninja village building.

Such movement soon attracted Deidara and Izumi to the roof.

Looking up, Quan missed the rope tree for three days.

"Lord Nogeki!"

With a somewhat excited call, as the rope tree fell, his eyes were full of joy.

The next moment, Tsunade and Shizune appeared in her eyes, and her body suddenly stiffened a bit.

Especially the most obvious feature, it instantly crushed her without any room for resistance.

Tsunade looked around with some interest and asked, "I didn't expect that the Grass Ninja Village has been captured by you."

Shizune was also surprised, because as far as she knew, although Kusanagi was from a small country, it was actually not that bad, yet it was so easily controlled by the rope tree.

Shengshu said: "It's just a grass ninja village. My sister doesn't like it at all. I just have no choice."

Tsunade didn't care about Naoki's modesty. She looked down at the petite Izumi. There seemed to be some hostility in the other person's eyes, and she couldn't help but show amusement.

"Who is this……"

Before Shengshu could answer, Quan spoke first.

"Izumi, Uchiha Izumi!"

"Now you are in charge of the Kusanagi Village on behalf of Mr. Nogeki. Who are you?"

Tsunade smiled and came to her, condescending. When the pressure came closer, Izumi realized how huge it was.

Tsunade asked: "Hasn't the Uchiha clan been destroyed?"

Quan responded again: "On the night of the genocide, I was fortunate enough to be appreciated by Lord Noge Tree and saved one life, and I have been serving him till now."

Seeing this, Shengshu raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "About this matter, let's go into the house first and I will explain it slowly."

Xiao Di beside him was yawning, not paying much attention to these things.

Soon, everyone came to Kusanagi's office, and Naoki also formally introduced Tsunade's identity.

As soon as I heard that it was Tsunade Hime, one of the legendary three ninjas, Izumi's aura immediately disappeared, and his face even turned red.

What are you doing, to do this to Mr. Naoki's sister? It's really... shocking.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't expect you to be Lord Nawaki's sister, Lady Tsunade!"

Izumi bowed and apologized shamefully, while Tsunade waved her hand indifferently: "It's okay."

And here, Shengshu also mentioned the business: "By the way, sister, the person I want you to teach the strange power is not me, but the spring in front of you."

"Now Izumi has three Magatama Sharingan eyes and a physical technique, but he lacks effective means of defeating enemies."

"Because I'm good at physical arts, that's why I told you that I want to learn strange powers."

After hearing what Naoki said, Tsunade looked at Izumi's whole body again, and then asked, "What about the medical ninjutsu?"

At this time, the rope tree waved to the little transparent fragrant phosphorus. The latter looked around and finally determined that he was calling him and walked over this time.

Tsunade saw Xianglan's red hair and looked at the tree: "She is..."

Naoki nodded and confirmed: "I found the remnants of the Uzumaki clan in the Grass Ninja Village."

"And she inherited the special physique of her mother, the Uzumaki clan. By biting her skin, you can restore chakra and injuries."

"Because of this, her mother died after being drained of chakra by Kusanagi in order to survive."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade's eyes softened, and she felt a little pity for this child as the remaining Uzumaki clan.

Originally, the Senju clan and the Uzumaki clan were distant relatives, but the fall of the Uzumaki Kingdom was so sudden that Konoha was unable to react, which was a pity.

Tsunade nodded: "I know, leave these two children to me for training later!"

"But you can also learn from Rope Tree. It's not a bad thing for you."

Shengshu also nodded slightly: "I will."

He originally planned to cultivate himself during this period, but with the current consumption, he could not even maintain the ten-tailed phantom in his body.

What's more, the ninja world is now turbulent, and his goal has been achieved, and there is no need to show his face for a short time.

Besides, there are still many things in Tsunade worth learning and researching.

Moreover, Teacher Orochimaru also needs to make a trip. I don’t know when he plans to seize Itachi’s body and inquire about the whereabouts of the other tailed beasts.

Capturing the tailed beast's chakra is his first choice goal now, and the rest can only be considered secondary.

As for the Mist Ninja, it won't be long before another outbreak occurs, and those blood successor families will be eliminated by Obito.
