Naruto: The Strongest Sage

The dead body was buried, and the dead body was buried.

Like most people, Jiraiya did not sleep last night.

For most people in Konoha, the biggest problem yesterday was the death of a Hokage.

But for Jiraiya, it was not just the Hokage who died, but also the teacher, elders, and relatives.

However, the most painful thing for Jiraiya about this matter was that in the whole Konoha, except Jiraiya, no one seemed to care about the death of the Hokage.

The Hokage should have been the most powerful and respected existence in a ninja village. But I don’t know when, the third generation Hokage lost those halos.

He became different from before. Under his connivance, Konoha made too many mistakes. And all these mistakes eventually led to today’s situation.

For the first time, Jiraiya began to regret that he had been away from the village for too long.

There were footsteps behind him, and Jiraiya could sense that it was Kamikawa Aoba without turning back.

"Are you so impatient to settle accounts with the Hokage lineage?"

Jiraiya said with a hint of sarcasm. Logically, there was nothing wrong with Kamikawa Aoba's approach. But emotionally, this person was one of the murderers of the teacher. Jiraiya naturally wouldn't have a good attitude.

Aoba didn't care about Jiraiya's attitude.

The goodness or badness of a person is very complicated. Especially for people like the third generation who have two faces. For people like Kamikawa Aoba, Kakashi, and Uchiha, the third generation deserved to die.

But for Jiraiya, for the Sarutobi clan. He is a good person, a good Hokage.

It's a pity that I don't know when they became a minority.

"I came here because there is a mission that needs to be completed by Master Jiraiya, a mission that only you can complete."

"Hehe, I don't know what identity you are talking to me in now, Hokage?"

"No, not now. But if this mission cannot be completed, it may be."

"......"

Jiraiya was silent for a while, then spoke.

"You want me to find Tsunade and come back to be Hokage?"

"Yes. But it's not just that. You also saw the battle between the Hokage and Orochimaru before. Although Orochimaru escaped, he was seriously injured. If nothing unexpected happens, he should go to Tsunade for treatment."

"Tsunade can't treat him, he just killed Tsunade's teacher. How could it be possible..."

Jiraiya didn't believe that Tsunade would treat Orochimaru who killed Sarutobi Hiruzen. But Aoba knew that Orochimaru had too many cards in his hand.

"Hehe, we can discuss this issue a little bit. First of all, as a disciple of Sarutobi Hiruzen, what did Tsunade inherit from Sarutobi Hiruzen?"

Aoba did not directly state the reason for the Impure World Reincarnation. Instead, he asked Jiraiya from an angle that Jiraiya had not expected.

This made Jiraiya unable to answer for a while.

"She..."

Thinking carefully, Jiraiya realized that this question actually made him a little speechless. Because none of Tsunade's famous skills came from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

He is different from Jiraiya, although they both have their own systems now.

But in fact, both of them have all five attributes. When they became famous in their early years, they relied on the five elements of ninjutsu to conquer the world. Even now, Jiraiya and Orochimaru's five elements of ninjutsu are first-class.

These are naturally inherited from Sarutobi Hiruzen. After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen is famous for the five elements of ninjutsu. With the five escapes and the Great Link, he also dominated the ninja world back then.

But Tsunade... When Tsunade became famous, it was medical ninjutsu and super strength. And Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't know these two things...

Jiraiya vaguely guessed what Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to say. But he was unwilling to reveal this.

"What do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is that I taught Uchiha Sasuke the Lightning Release and swordsmanship because he has the same lightning attribute as me, and he has good talent and can inherit my Lightning Release.

I taught Naruto the Rasengan because... this is his ninjutsu. He uses shadow clones to fight him every day because he is the kind of ninja who needs to grow in actual combat.

I accepted Haruno Sakura as my disciple. It's because she is as rich in theory as me, has excellent chakra control, and can inherit my research work.

You see, the bond between the master and the disciple is essentially for a straightforward reason, inheritance. What does Sarutobi Hiruzen want Tsunade to pass on to him? You need to know

"... "Jiraiya found that he didn't want to talk to Kamikawa Aoba anymore. Because this guy always broke his defense with a few words, and he couldn't refute it. Aoba's meaning was very clear. Sarutobi Hiruzen accepted Tsunade as his disciple for ulterior motives. Jiraiya didn't want to admit it. Or he didn't want to blaspheme his dead teacher. But he couldn't refute Aoba's words. The most important thing is that Tsunade's attitude towards Sarutobi Hiruzen seems to explain something. Jiraiya didn't even dare to think about it. Because he felt that he couldn't accept that answer. In fact, Aoba was not sure whether his guess was correct. But it didn't matter. Sarutobi Hiruzen was dead anyway. He just needed to fool Jiraiya now. "You know what? If it were me, I might actually do the same as Sarutobi Hiruzen. The Senju clan was the founder of Konoha Village. Tsunade, as the princess of the Senju clan, naturally had an incomparable special status. This status is not even weaker than that of the Hokage.

Even because the Senju clan has been disbanded, Tsunade's status will become more special. After all, she is the last Senju in the open.

Therefore, except Tsunade, no matter who sits on the position of Hokage, they will inevitably face a problem. That is, there is another person in the village whose reputation and status are not weaker than his own. This is absolutely unacceptable for a person in power.

Fortunately, this problem is not unsolvable. The simplest way is to kill Tsunade. But anyone with a bottom line will not do this.

So another method can be used to make her a generation shorter. "

Combined with the original plot, when the first generation was in power, Tsunade had already followed him to gamble. After the first generation died, the second generation was in power for at least eight to ten years. Therefore, when the second generation died, Tsunade should have been about fifteen years old.

(There is a huge bug during this period. According to some memories, Tsunade became the disciple of the third generation when she was four or five years old. But in fact, according to the timeline above, Tsunade should have died at least fourteen or fifteen years old after Tobirama died.

This calculation is obviously unreasonable. Because as long as Tobirama is alive, Sarutobi has not become a master. Theoretically, it is impossible to accept disciples. And according to Tobirama's personality and talent, it is impossible for the little princess of the Senju clan to be the disciple of his disciple.

According to the concept of master-disciple inheritance of the Eastern school, Tsunade should be the younger sister of the third generation. But there is no way, there are too many bugs in Naruto. It is impossible to watch it if you look into it carefully. But this also has its advantages, giving the author more writing space.).
