A few days later, Konoha gate.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar place, Tsunade took a deep breath. This is the village that her grandfather built, the dream of her younger brother.
And today, the purpose of his return is to become Hokage and confront the bastard Natsuo.
'Konoha, I'm back!'
One of the Sannin, Konoha's Slug Princess Tsunade, had returned.
This news has undoubtedly calmed the growing undercurrents in Konoha. Some people are excited for her return and other people can only grit their teeth in hatred towards her.
Although Tsunade has miraculously brought a daughter. But the position of Hokage has never relied on a healthy personal life, but on real power and prestige that surpasses countless others.
And Tsunade is obviously the most advantageous competitor for the position of Hokage.
With the blood of the First Hokage and Second Hokage flowing in her, if she hadn't left Konoha on her own during the Fourth Hokage's election and had participated in the election instead. Then the position of the Fourth Hokage might not have fallen to Namikaze Minato.
From this perspective, the deaths of Nawaki and Dan have many questionable points. The Senju clan's background was too strong for a one-eyed old man who was going crazy wanting to be Hokage.
So after Tsunade arrived in Konoha, almost everyone supported her, pushing her towards the position of Hokage.
They talked to her about giving her daughter a bright future, hiring the best nanny in the Land of Fire full-time to take care of her. They also mentioned to her about how, after becoming Hokage, she could use the power of the village to better protect her daughter...
After a long series of words, Tsunade finally accepted the position of Hokage.
Or rather, she never intended to refuse in the first place - after all, this village was protected by the First Hokage and Second Hokage at the cost of their lives.
Now she was needed to set things right...
However, after a series of complex inauguration ceremonies, Tsunade did not immediately deal with the attacks from the Kumogakure and Sunagakure. Instead, without hesitation, he opened the intelligence database and began searching for the information about Natsuo.
Tsunade looked at report after report, after reading all the information about Natsuo, the anger she had been holding back erupted within her.
Without hesitation, she smashed open the window and headed straight to the Uchiha residence with determined steps.
[Bang!]
Tsunade kicked fiercely, breaking the door of the Uchiha clan residence into pieces.
Her eyes were filled with anger.
"Natsuo!!"
"Die, you bastard!"
...
The base of the root.
[Crash!]
Danzō, who was still recovering from his injuries, pushed away the teacup in front of him and cursed angrily.
"Since you left the village, you should never have come back! Why do you want to go back and fight for the Hokage seat with the old man?"
Now that both Tsunade and Orochimaru had left the village, and Jiraiya does not want to be Hokage, sooner or later the position would belong to him.
Unexpectedly, within a few days, Jiraiya brought her back. This shattered his Hokage dream again.
"Jiraiya..." In the dark room, Danzō's wailing like a ghost was heard.
...
Land of Rain.
Uchiha Itachi and Kisame have returned to Akatsuki's base.
When they saw the embarrassed appearance of the two, some of the members who stayed at the base all showed expressions of surprise.
"Katsu-katsu! Isn't this Itachi, a simple task and you ended up like this?"
Deidara is enjoying Itachi's misfortune a little. He disliked Uchiha Itachi's arrogant demeanor the most.
However, Itachi was unmoved: "I met a more troublesome opponent and suffered a loss."
"Is it from Konoha?"
An indifferent voice came, and everyone followed the voice and looked, it was Pain.
The purple Rinnegan stared at Uchiha Itachi. Pain was also curious.
In the existing information, it seems that the current Konoha has no one who can make them suffer. Something must have gone wrong.
"While gathering information about the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki, we encountered Uchiha Natsuo."
Itachi said softly.
Konan, who had been silent, also raised his head.
Pain's expression changed a little. "Uchiha Natsuo? According to Kakuzu's information he is strong, but he shouldn't be able to defeat both of them."
But Itachi gently shook his head: "He possesses the Mangekyō Sharingan, and apparently his illusions are more powerful than mine."
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked.
"Apparently he was hiding more than we thought, he is a master of several powerful ninjutsu and Forbidden Techniques, in addition to possessing the Mangekyō Sharingan." Itachi said the information, and everyone's eyes flickered.
"In Konoha, there is no shortage of geniuses at any time." Sasori's rough voice was heard among the group.
Pain also stopped considering Natsuo alone with an employer without any strength. But that's all. In his eyes, even the most talented ninja would not be the opponent of God.
The crowd dispersed, and Kisame returned to his room.
It's just that there is already a man in a vortex mask waiting for him.
Seeing this person, Kisame was not surprised at all, but his eyes became playful.
"Is what Uchiha Itachi said true?" The masked man, Obito, said in a low voice.
He suspected that Itachi had other purposes for returning to Konoha this time, but fortunately he had placed a spy beside Itachi.
Although he already knew that Natsuo was hiding his strength, but the news that he possesses the Mangekyō Sharingan made him a little worried. Only those who personally possess the Mangekyō Sharingan know what terrifying force it can bestow.
"Of course." Kisame grinned. "Itachi-sama and I were stopped by Copy Ninja Kakashi and another Konoha kunoichi as soon as we entered Konoha, and then that guy defeated us."
After speaking, Kisame carefully observed the only Sharingan that the mask revealed. And although they were small, he perceived changes.
Kisame began to laugh in his mind. Uchiha Obito, you make my job very easy to confirm some of the things that Natsuo told me.
