I teach kendo in the ninja world

Konoha Village, outside the Senju Mansion.

Masaki Kazamatsu, whose face was filled with an uncontrollable excited smile, came to this area alone.

As the third generation member born after the Senju clan moved out, he was already in the Fengji family when he was born, and he had never experienced the feeling of being a Senju clan member.

But his father was different. When he was a child, he would often talk to him about things that happened to the Senju family in the past, so that he could remember that he was also a ninja who inherited the blood and will of the first Hokage.

Therefore, after deciding to accept the Wooden Release Awakening Experiment hosted by Lord Hokage himself, Masaki Kazamatsu could not suppress his inner excitement and prepared to personally visit the place where his father was said to have lived a long time ago.

It would be better if he could be allowed to go in and pay homage to the First Hokage. Maybe the spirit of the First Hokage in heaven could bless him and make this experiment a complete success.

As a young Jonin of the new generation of Konoha, Masaki Kazamatsuri's popularity is actually not low. In addition, he is good friends with Shinnosuke Sarutobi, so the three generations, three ninjas, including the people around them, are very important to them. He is no stranger either.

No, just as he was standing outside the wall of Qianju Mansion with his hands clasped together and silently praying, a little lolita with black hair and black eyes poked her head out from the wall, tilted her head, and asked softly: "Exactly?" Brother Hui, what are you doing? Are you here to see Teacher Tsunade?"

"It's little Shizune~"

Feng Jie Masaki raised his head and smiled at the little loli on the wall, "Is Tsunade-sama at home?"

"The teacher is here."

Shizune nodded obediently.

"call--"

Kazematsu Masaki took a deep breath and said, "Sorry to trouble you, I want to pay a visit to Lady Tsunade."

"Good!"

Shizune slid down the high wall with a "squeak" and ran into the main house with her short legs. "Tsunade-sama, Tsunade-sama, Kazamatsu Masaki, brother wants to Come visit you!”

"Fengji Masaki? Why did he come to me?"

Although it is a branch that branched off from the Senju clan, by the generation of Masaki Kazamatsuri, it has basically completely separated from the Senju family.

Besides, Tsunade has been decadent for many years, and the mansion that used to be full of people has become uninterested.Except for a few friends and a few of Shizune's classmates, no one has visited here for a long time.

But no matter what, there is still a sense of love, and since they are here, Tsunade can't turn them away.

So, she straightened her clothes and said to Shizune: "Go and open the door."

In the huge Senju Mansion, the two of them were the only permanent residents. Fengji Masaki, led by Shizune, came to Tsunade.

"Master Tsunade!"

Feng Ji Zhenghui lowered his head and saluted.

"Ah."

Tsunade nodded and asked bluntly: "Why did you come to see me?"

Tsunade, who has been autistic for many years, has a hint of sadness that cannot be resolved between her brows.

Because she only spends most of her time indoors at home and in the hospital, her skin is slightly pale due to the lack of sunlight.

The whole thing looks like a piece of delicate and fragile porcelain.

Of course, Kazamatsu Masaki would not tell Tsunade that he was about to participate in the Wooden Release Awakening Experiment.

"That's it, Tsunade-sama. I want to pay homage to the first generation's soul."

"Pay homage to Grandpa?"

Tsunade frowned.

In the days immediately after the First Ninja War, many people would come to the Senju Mansion to pay homage to the first and second generation Hokages.

But as time goes by, there are fewer and fewer such people.

This sudden appearance of another one made her stunned, as if she had returned to ten years ago.

that time……

"you……"

Tsunade suddenly came back to her senses, her face suddenly became a little complicated, and she looked up and down at Masaki Kazamatsuri.

Another fool who wants to be Hokage?

That's all, what does this have to do with her?

Tsunade turned around suddenly, her golden twin ponytails drawing a beautiful arc in the air, "Shizune, take him to the shrine."

"Thank you, Tsunade-sama."

Because of his experience, Masaki Kazamatsu couldn't understand how complicated Tsunade's mood was. He just smiled slightly happily and said thank you.

Looking at the two people's retreating figures, Tsunade quietly tightened her grip on the emerald green pendant between her neck.

……

After Shizune led Fengji Masaki to the entrance of the ancestral hall, she did not enter with him, but stood outside and waited.

In the ancestral hall.

Looking at the neatly arranged spiritual tablets of the Thousand Hands tribe on the table in front of him, Fengji Zhenghui was inexplicably shocked.

He seemed to feel that the blood flowing in his body was boiling and stirring for the achievements of his ancestors.

"Sir, my name is Fengji Masaki. Although I no longer have the surname of Senju, the blood of the Senju clan still flows in my body."

He stretched out his right hand and covered his heart.

"Please, Lord First Generation, bless me with the spirit of heaven, so that I can successfully awaken the Wood Escape in tomorrow's experiment. It is my duty to rebuild the glory of Thousand Hands!"

After bowing deeply towards the spiritual throne, Masaki Fengji was about to turn around, but found that he had almost hit something.

After taking a step back, he saw clearly that Tsunade had arrived at the door of the ancestral hall at some point. She was looking at him with a cold face. Her long golden hair was dancing in the wind, like countless ferocious hair. Tentacle-like.

It was clear she was angry.

"Tsunade-sama," Kazamatsu Masaki stammered as he greeted her, "when did you come?"

"Just when you said you wanted to recast Thousand Hands of Glory!"

Tsunade's eyes were as sharp as swords, and her tone was as cold as a knife, "Tell me! What's going on with that Awakening Wood Release experiment you're talking about?"

"This...Tsunade-sama doesn't you know?"

Kazematsu Masaki was stunned. He originally thought that Tsunade was going to pursue what he considered to be the Senju clan, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Aren't I waiting for you to give me an answer?!"

Tsunade took a step forward, her momentum becoming more and more threatening.

"Well, then... you might as well ask Mr. Hokage. I just received the notification..."

Feng Jie Zhenghui laughed dryly and chose to throw the pot away.

His small body couldn't bear Tsunade's anger, so he had better let a taller person handle it.

"Hokage...Orochimaru?"

After hearing this, Tsunade turned around and left, walking hurriedly like wind and fire, looking like she was going to fight Orochimaru.

Feng Jie Zhenghui stared at her back blankly, suddenly feeling that coming here today seemed to be a wrong choice.

He turned his head and looked at Shizune, who was also hiding behind the pillar and did not dare to get close. The big one and the little one sighed at the same time.

"I hope Hokage-sama is okay."

……

Firehouse.

After discussing the reinforcements, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura had already left and returned to the clan to make personnel arrangements.

After all, their two clans were the main force in this wave of support.

Orochimaru stood with his hands behind his hands, standing in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window of the office, looking at the busy and prosperous Konoha villagers below, his eyes were a little wandering, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

boom!

Suddenly, there was a loud noise behind him, and the office door was pushed open suddenly, hitting the wall hard, accompanied by the noisy sounds of ANBU ninjas outside.

"Tsunade-sama, please don't be impulsive."

"Tsunade-sama, let us inform you first, please don't barge in!"

"Hokage-sama, Tsunade-sama asks to see you."

As soon as he turned around, he saw a woman in green clothes with flying blond hair rushing towards him with long strides.

"Orochimaru, look for a fight!"

Normally, Orochimaru wouldn't mind receiving this strange punch with his face. Anyway, his body has completed the software transformation, and he is not afraid of this pure blunt attack at all.

Punching Tsunade was no big deal anyway.

Both he and Jiraiya were used to it.

But today, unlike in the past, he is Hokage after all.

Now that he is wearing this god robe, he still needs to pay a little attention to the image of Hokage.

He stretched out his weak, boneless arm and gently placed it on Tsunade's fist. Starting from her wrist, he wrapped it around her back to her shoulder, locking her subsequent space for exerting force.

"You all get out, Tsunade and I have something to discuss. No one is allowed to interrupt without my order!"

After feeling that Tsunade's punch did not hold back at all, Orochimaru immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately gave instructions to the ANBU ninjas outside.

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

The ANBU retreated and the door was closed.

Orochimaru then let go of his arm, sideways dodged Tsunade's second punch, and asked: "If you have anything to say directly, do you have to punch me before you are willing to speak?"

"Let me ask you, what's going on with that Mudun awakening experiment?!"

Tsunade stopped and asked angrily.

"Oh? You knew it so quickly?"

Hearing this, Orochimaru narrowed his golden vertical pupils slightly, "It shouldn't be, who told you?"

Tsunade ignored Orochimaru's questions and waved her hand:

"You don't have to worry about this! You just need to answer me, does this happen?!"

"Hehe, yes."

"Orochimaru!"

Tsunade read out Orochimaru's name word by word, as if she wanted to chew every word alive.

"Go to hell!"

boom!

Tsunade punched the desk behind Orochimaru, causing the desk to shatter into pieces.

"Wait, there's a reason why I did this."

Orochimaru quickly explained after dodging a punch.

"No reason!"

Tsunade went on a rampage, punching Orochimaru one after another, and immediately reduced the Hokage's office to rubble.

Orochimaru jumped several times in succession, narrowly avoiding Tsunade's punches, and then asked:

"What if it's to save Jiraiya's life?!"

quiet!

Tsunade's fist suddenly stopped, and she looked at Orochimaru with an incredulous expression: "What did you say? What does this have to do with Jiraiya?"

"Hum..."

A small snake poked out of Orochimaru's sleeve, gently picked up a document from the ground, and delivered it to Tsunade.

"See for yourself. If that idiot hadn't been lucky this time and realized the immortal mode through a breakthrough before the battle, he would have died in the sea by now!"

Tsunade took the document in front of her with trembling arms and flipped through the pages. The more she read, the more scared she became.

After her younger brother Naoki and her lover Kato Dan died one after another, the two people who had the closest relationship with her in the whole village were Jiraiya and Orochimaru.

Compared to Orochimaru, who is cold and gloomy, the relationship between Jiraiya and Tsunade, who is hot-blooded, cheerful and occasionally guilty, is more harmonious.

Not to mention Jiraiya's little tricks that everyone knows.

Although Tsunade never agreed, the way she looked at Jiraiya was different from ordinary people.

It can be said that if Jiraiya really died, it would be another devastating psychological blow to Tsunade.

Holding the piece of information tightly, she took two steps back, sat down on the sofa, took a deep breath and asked, "Does Wood Release need to be used to save Jiraiya?"

"That's not true," Orochimaru shook his head, "If there is another way to suppress the opponent's ship-destroying tactics, that's fine."

Tsunade fell silent upon hearing this.

She also read the information. The method used by Kirigakure to destroy ships was not only self-exploding sharks, but there was also an incident where members of the Ghost Lantern tribe personally dug ships out of the water.

And who can guarantee that these are all the methods of Kirigakure Village?

After thinking a lot, Tsunade looked at Orochimaru with a calm face: "Did you destroy Grandpa's body?"

"No. All the experimental materials were left by the Second Hokage and handed over to me by Danzo."

Orochimaru answered very calmly.

Tsunade raised her head, looked at his golden snake pupils with bright brown eyes for a moment, and then nodded slightly: "I reluctantly believe what you said. Second question, why did you choose Feng Matsuri Masaki?"

"Oh, so he leaked the news to you?"

Orochimaru smiled lightly.

"I heard him when he came to my house to pay homage to my grandfather's soul and pray for him to be protected by the spirit of heaven." Tsunade explained casually.

"Because his bloodline is close enough to the First Hokage, his chakra attributes also happen to include water and earth. According to my research, such a person is most likely to awaken the Wood Release after being injected with the medicinal solution!"

Seeing that Tsunade no longer seemed to object strongly, Orochimaru's tone became much more relaxed.

"Are bloodline and chakra attributes the key..."

Tsunade lowered her eyes slightly and whispered these words in a low voice.

"Yes, after all, it is the ability of the first generation Hokage. The possibility of adapting to it is always greater than that of others."

Orochimaru spread his hands.

"if it is like this……"

Tsunade suddenly raised her head, her bright brown eyes flashing with moving luster: "There is another person more suitable than Masaki Kazamatsuri."

"Who?"

"I!"

"Tsunade, you..."

Orochimaru leaned back in shock as Tsunade continued.

"If Grandpa's Wood Release is destined to reappear in the world, then who else can be more suitable than me?"

The brilliance in her eyes became more and more dazzling, as if she wanted to sweep away the sorrow and staleness of the past ten years!

"I understand that this kind of experiment will definitely involve considerable risks and costs. So, if it must be done, then please start with me, the only remaining direct descendant of the Thousand Hands Clan!"
