Chapter 23 Tsunade succeeds Hokage, and Jiraiya rescues Kakashi

On the road leading to Konoha, two figures were constantly jumping on the branches.

There was an anxious look on their face.

"Make it clear, how did that Uchiha monster from the Sengoku period suddenly wake up?"

Tsunade's face was full of shock and asked Jiraiya.

Just this morning, she was resting in the hotel with Shizune.

she was woken up by Jiraiya who came to the door suddenly.

Jiraiya, who always laughed at people, took her away with a serious face.

Only told her this terrible news on the road.

As a princess of the Senju family, she knows about Uchiha Shiro far beyond ordinary people.

The scary monster of the Sengoku period at that time!

For a time, the Senju clan was overwhelmed and unable to raise their heads.

Later, many families joined forces, almost uniting all the strong men in the Ninja World, and they sealed him away with great pains.

Now, Jiraiya actually said that such a monster has awakened?

How can she not be surprised?

"Because the Uchiha clan has been annihilated, without the support of sharingan power to keep the seal, it will certainly not be too difficult to break the seal with his strength."

There were no waves in Jiraiya's tone.

However, Tsunade was his former companion after all, and she still saw a trace of loneliness on his face.

She hurriedly asked, "What about Konoha? Is there any damage? Where did the monster go?"

Hearing Tsunade's questioning, Jiraiya fell silent immediately.

Just when Tsunade couldn't help but ask again, he spoke slowly.

"Konoha's strength dropped by half, the roots were completely wiped out, and many elite Jōnin died."

"Even Mr. Sarutobi… was killed!"

Tsunade's pupils shrank suddenly, and her heart felt an instant pain.

She and Jiraiya are both students of Sarutobi Hiruzen and were carefully taught by him when they were young.

The feelings between the master and the apprentice are deep.

"That old man is also dead!"

First Dan, then Nawaki, is even the old man dead now?

Tsunade stopped in an instant, as if the road ahead was full of terrifying behemoths.

Konoha carries too many sad memories, and she doesn't have the courage to face them now.

Jiraiya also stopped beside her, reaching out and patted her shoulder.

"Konoha now needs Senju's princess to preside over the overall situation. The old man is also waiting for us, Tsunade, now is not the time to shrink!"

Tsunade raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of his eye, and waved his hand to open Jiraiya's palm.

"It's boring, hurry up, I'm already missing Konoha's tavern."

Seeing Tsunade's renewed fighting spirit, Jiraiya's mouth also showed a smile.

He looked up at the blue sky and said in his heart.

"Sorry old man, I really don't want to become Hokage , but after all I returned with Tsunade back, now you don't have to worry!"

…

Konoha.

News of the return of Jiraiya and Tsunade spread throughout the village in an instant.

Konoha at this time is facing the most severe test.

With declining strength and insufficient manpower, the four major powers are eyeing each other and spying on the territory of the country of fire.

Uchiha Shiro doesn't know where he is, and may make a comeback at any time.

The return of the two of Sannin undoubtedly gave Konoha who was about to collapse a ray of hope.

The atmosphere of the whole village is alive again.

In the Konoha Cemetery.

Jiraiya placed a lit tobacco pipe in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen's tomb.

Sitting down cross-legged, I got a glass of sake for myself.

"Old man, I thought you could live long enough to witness my disciple change the world of Shinobi, but I didn't expect to die before me."

After drinking a pot of wine, a familiar figure appeared in his sight.

"Master Jiraiya, why are you here didn't you have a meeting in Hokage's office?"

Nara Shikaku held a pack of unopened cigarettes in his hand and set it aside in front of Asuma's tombstone and lit it.

Seeing a little drunk Jiraiya, he asked curiously.

"Well, those troubles, let Tsunade and the two consultants get a headache! Compared to that, it's better to have a drink with the old man."

There was a bohemian smile on Jiraiya's face, as if nothing would make him worry.

However, the distress in his heart can be seen from the empty wine bottle.

"By the way, when I came back this time, why didn't I see Kakashi? Is that guy also before…"

Kakashi is Namikaze Minato's disciple, so he will also naturally pay attention to him.

Nara Shikaku lit a cigarette for herself, and then spoke a moment later.

"He disappeared and never came back during a certain mission. The Anbu he led was also killed. It is said that only some traces of the Forbidden Technique were found on the scene."

Nara Shikaku frowned and thought for a moment, then spoke again.

"It seems to be a Forbidden Technique called the Chimera Technique, I don't understand this and i don't even know about it."

Jiraiya's expression instantly became extremely ugly.

A sharp look flashed in his eyes, and the wine glass in his hand was shattered!

"Chimera Technique? Are you sure?"

"Shikaku, Tsunade inherited Hokage's affairs, so you go take care of it. I'll bring back that guy Kakashi!"

….

On Mount Shumisen.

A grinning laugh resounded throughout the mountain range.

Hiroku's face was full of arrogant expressions .

"Why, seeing Orochimaru killed by me, are you afraid to do it?"

Orochimaru?

Killed?

Shiro almost laughed, Is it so easy to kill that sly snake.

This kind of naive enemy is rare.

The hands were sealed, and a large amount of Chakra instantly condensed in the mouth.

"Fire Style·Extinguish Flames !"

boom!

A large ball of fireball exploded in front of him in an instant.

The burning flame evaporates all the moisture in the air and turns it into mist.

Slowly drifting away with the wind.

The smile on Hiroku's face grew stronger, and he stretched out his hand to untie the bandage on his left hand.

A Two diamond-shaped mark appeared in the palm of his hand.

"Dark Style·Inhaling maw !"

The raging fire in the sky instantly transformed into the form of Chakra.

And In a blink of an eye, it was absorbed into his body.

"Hahaha… it's useless to use ninjutsu against me, I am the perfect ninja, and nobody is my opponent!"

At this moment, a pair of scarlet Mangekyō Sharingan appeared in front of him instantly.

The laughter stopped abruptly.

"So, what about illusion?"

"Tsukuyomi!"
