[Hokage] Secrets of the Fathers [Fourth Generation Center]

Fire Country Konoha

It rained continuously from noon to late at night

It was obviously a cool weather that was perfect for sleeping, but the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, just couldn't sleep.He turned on the light, knelt on the floor and dug for a long time before taking out the round crystal ball.He raised his sleeve and wiped the dust away, but eventually pushed the ball back under the cabinet.This wise old man warned himself that everything was going well in Konoha now, so it was better not to cause trouble.Just like last time, he just let a pig fly and he was able to recruit the Minister of Intelligence. This time, if those sensitive ANBU on duty find out that the old man stayed up late at night and played with his crystal ball.

Hey, female disciples are troublesome, and they have to avoid suspicion when they get older.The teacher is worried that the students will not sleep well at night, and even if they want to cover them with quilts, they are afraid that others will see them.The old Hokage complained secretly, then put on his clothes, picked up his umbrella, and was blocked by the old housekeeper.

The old housekeeper didn't mean to stop him, he just sighed and silently handed over a cloak.

"It's summer now." Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head at the old man who ran to the door barefoot in his pajamas, "You must be confused by your sleep."

"Maybe." The old housekeeper took out his reading glasses from his trouser pocket and put them on, "I always feel like it's freezing and snowing outside recently."

"I think you should take your medical card and go to Konoha Hospital." Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the person opposite with some worry, "You have been really forgetful recently. Go and check carefully. You are sick." Treat early.”

"Okay." The old housekeeper sighed, opened the door for the old Hokage, and then suddenly became serious, "Although a servant shouldn't talk to the master in this tone, I still want to say something. If I can comfort him this time, If you meet Ms. Tsunade on the spiritual monument, don't freeze and speak first. That girl has been competitive since she was a child, so you have to give her a step down."

"I understand." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, "Don't wait for me. Get more sleep as you get older. Also, don't talk about master and servant in the future. Being a loyal person is not popular in Konoha now." Servant, didn't you hear what Konohamaru said at dinner that day? He wants to grow up quickly and become a Konoha ninja like his big brother Naruto. It doesn't matter whether he is strong or not. The main thing is that Konoha ninja is Konoha ninja. That way He will no longer be someone’s junior.”

"Young people today." The old housekeeper shook his head, "You can do as you please. I'll go see if young Master Konohamaru has kicked off the quilt. In the summer, the wind will blow and you will feel cold sometimes."

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his mouth, but finally put the cloak on his arm, opened the umbrella and went out.He walked slowly towards the memorial monument.Occasionally, the patrolling ANBU and security personnel would greet them patiently.Those were good teenagers, polite, orderly and capable.This reminded the old Hokage of the past unconsciously.He once had so many good children, especially his three disciples.

It's a pity that the smartest Orochimaru is so stupid, Jiraiya at the end of the crane has made some small achievements outside, and the beautiful and lively Princess Tsunade has turned into a troublesome old woman.Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart twitched whenever he thought of Tsunade in this state.They say he is a ninja professor, and the students he teaches are top notch.But are there any successful teachers like him in the world?

The more Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it, the more he felt angry in his heart. Orochimaru Jiraiya was fine, but if Tsunade continued to be so decadent, how could he have the nerve to face the first generation master and the second generation teacher if he went to hell one day?

"I can't coddle her anymore." So Sarutobi Hiruzen instantly decided not to go to the commemorative monument but to guard it. He turned towards the Jonin dormitory area.He was going to Shizune's dormitory to pull his female disciple off the bed, wrap her in a cloak and give her a good beating first.

So, 5 minutes later, Shizune, who had already fallen asleep, opened the door and found the energetic Sandaime Ichi.

"Shizune, where's Tsunade?" The Sandaime put his umbrella back and touched his goatee.

"Sleep in there." Shizune rubbed her eyes.

"Oh." The Sandaime staggered past Shizune and walked in, and then saw the pink piglet and Tsunade-hime lying on the bed in the back room with big letters, "It's really ugly to sleep. After all, she is the princess of the Senju family, please pay attention to your image." The old Hokage broke two beards.

"Zizzi purr."

"That Third Generation-sama." Shizune was suddenly frightened. "My Tsunade-sama gets confused after drinking. Usually if I wake her up, she will think it's a dream."

"Then try waking her up." The Third Hokage ordered.

Jonin Kato Shizune had no choice but to move the pig away, then cleared his throat and leaned into Tsunade's ear, "The debtor is here and if you don't pay back, they will splash paint on it."

As expected, Tsunade straightened up immediately and patted her chest, "It's okay, let them find Namikaze Minato. The medical fee he promised us has not been paid yet."

Then, he lay down again.

Shizune spread her hands and picked up the pig, showing that she was helpless.

The Sandaime was not as angry as Shizune imagined. He touched the piglet's head and waved to Shizune, "I'm sorry for disturbing your rest."

"It's okay, it's okay." Shizune bowed as usual.

"So." The old Hokage threw the cloak in Tsunade's body, and then grabbed the man with the cloak, "You can continue to rest."

Shizune just watched blankly as the Sandaime kicked open the window, grabbed the person and left.She looked at the little pig in her arms and said, "Dodo, Konoha is really an incredible place."

Dolphin nodded, then shook his head, "Dolphin~ Dolphin~~"

"Why are you worried about Tsunade-sensei's safety?" Shizune winked at Xiaozhu, "No, it's natural for a teacher to teach his disciples in Konoha."

Over there, Senju Tsunade, who was thrown directly by the teacher on the remote training ground, had completely woken up. She got up and punched her, "Old man, what are you crazy about?"

The Sandaime dodged away and said in a very calm tone, "Are you crazy enough? Don't think that the teacher doesn't remember that you are 20 years old because you are in your 50s. People who are 50 years old are all grandmothers."

Tsunade punched wildly without saying a word.

The Sandaime could only continue to hide, "I have been floating outside for 15 years. Can't 15 years still help you get over the pain?"

Tsunade was still crazy.

Sandai hid again, "I think we should sit down and talk. Since you left without a word, we have hardly seen each other. Old man, I am 70 years old this year, and people live for seventy years. I'm a ninja. So when you've vented enough, sit down and talk to me, but the talk is getting worse every day."

Tsunade still didn't speak, but her fists hitting the ground became less and less.

"Okay, it seems that you have calmed down." The third generation patted Tsunade on the shoulder, "I don't know what information Minato Namikaze has in your hands, and I don't want to know. So I came here today while Minato is on vacation. I am talking to you just for your sake, my disciple."

Tsunade finally sat on the ground, her head lowered, still silent.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and said, "Silly boy, who in this world can live without encountering some obstacles that are difficult to overcome? I know that you are very sad when the tree rope is dead and the rope is dead. But open your eyes and look at this huge tree. Konoha, to be honest, it’s hard to find even a few normal families of three. You are never alone. Every one of them has experienced the pain you have experienced. So, why can everyone come out of it? You can’t”

""

"Do you know how much manpower and material resources Konoha has spent on cultivating you? We have always had high hopes for you, but you have been gone for 15 years. Yes, your achievements are inseparable from your own talent and hard work , even teachers can see this. However, have you ever thought about where the countless resources invested in you come from? They are taken from others. There are only so many resources, and you have used them. Others will have none. Think about it, during the war years, people who did not have access to resources, what kind of ending was waiting for them."

""

"But those are all old things, so don't mention them. Now I just hope you can cheer up and live a life that a normal person should live." Sarutobi Hiruzen touched his face that was wet by the rain, and patted it again Tsunade's shoulder, "You kid looks strong on the outside, but you're actually too weak underneath."

""

"Okay, come on. Come home with me and take a hot shower. Everything will be over at dawn tomorrow." Sarutobi Hiruzen tried to pull Tsunade up.

"Bang" but only a white smoke rose.

p; "Old man. Even his mouth escape has regressed since he became Hokage." Senju Tsunade stood on a nearby branch and sneered at the Sandaime Hokage, "In short, I don't want to stay in Konoha."

The old Hokage remained calm, "Then you can't leave until the current Hokage comes back and allows you to leave."

"Otherwise, how can we announce that Senju Tsunade is a traitorous ninja just like Orochimaru?"

"Yes." The old Hokage said firmly.

"Then you declare it. Aren't you just rebelling? Who is afraid of who?" Tsunade waved her clenched fists.

"Don't be arrogant. If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about Shizune. A beautiful girl who is almost 30 years old, has a good family background, and must be capable. Why should I follow you around the streets as a slave? You When I took her away, I could say that I wanted to take good care of her for her uncle, Kato Dan. But now it's obviously you who has been dragging her down."

"You also said that you are not Minato boy's lobbyist." Tsunade remained unmoved, "How could she learn so many advanced medical ninjutsu if she didn't follow me? Besides, if Shizune followed me, at least she wouldn't have to worry about being stabbed in the back."

"Then tell me, who has stabbed you in the back. Don't make excuses." Sarutobi frowned, jumped up the tree and pulled Tsunade down, "You kid is a sharp-tongued kid."

"I didn't."

"Why did you come back to Konoha without you? Why did you let Ren Shizune go to the hospital to work? You don't know that if you take in a troublesome patient, you may not be able to get out for several years. Also, why do you do it when I pull you? Come down. Your teacher is 70 years old, so just do it and don't cause any trouble, okay?" Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, "I haven't asked you yet, why is it that the boss is running to the memorial monument in the middle of the night these days? It made your and the ANBU on duty have a nervous breakdown."

"That bad boy Minato said that he engraved Orochimaru and Danzo's names together." Tsunade frowned, "But I just can't find it."

"Minato has said something similar to me before, but I can't find it." Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed, "Forget it, leave him alone and come home with me."

"I knew there was not a single word of truth in that damn boy from Minato Namikaze." Tsunade Senju angrily grabbed the leaves of the tree, but after grabbing them, she took out a piece from her ninja bag that had not been damaged by the rain. Wet towel, "Hey, old man, wipe your head quickly. It doesn't matter if your clothes are wet. If your head is blown by the wind, you might have a stroke at your age. Really, look at which old man in the world is so awake at midnight. Running around."

"Okay." Although Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't think he really needed it, he happily took the towel and wiped his head.At this moment, he suddenly seemed to have regained the feeling he had before: his quiet disciple Orochimaru stood quietly like a sculpture, and his lively disciple Jiraiya was like a cricket in a jar, teasing him whenever he had nothing to do. A few words from Orochimaru.There is also his only female disciple, Tsunade-hime, who likes to fight whenever they disagree, but is sensible and strong.

Tsunade Senju looked at the teacher who was suddenly stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then approached.His teacher was much older than before, and seemed a little shorter. However, the medical ninja's intuition told him that this old guy was still the terrible ninja doctor. "Why don't you leave quickly? What are you thinking about?"

"Ouch, my old bones." Sarutobi Hiruzen dodged the female disciple's hand that slapped him and raised his beard, "Nothing big or small."

Outside Konoha

Hot Spring Hotel

The first night of Naruto's vacation.

Naruto Uzumaki hugged his father's arm, kicked his father's knees, stared at the photo of his mother on the bedside table, and couldn't sleep all night.Today, no, it was yesterday. Ever since his father used a trick to get rid of Kakashi yesterday morning, Naruto suddenly had an unreal feeling.There was no smell of Anbu's Heihei around him, no fresh ink smell of pending official documents, no Kakashi, Gaara, or anyone else, just him and his father, no, his father said, plus his mother. In the photo, we are a neat and quiet family of three.

This experience was so unfamiliar to Naruto.In a strange environment, meet strange people, and do things you have never done before.All these made Naruto feel stimulated and excited.For example, yesterday they visited Flower Street first, and dad told him a lot of things about boys and girls who are very shy during puberty.Then I came to this hot spring hotel that seemed to be called "Totsuyuya" with a "chirp" sound.After taking a short rest, they were greeted by the enthusiastic shopkeeper and had a sumptuous meal that was as sumptuous as their birthday last year.After that, he watched a sparkling song and dance performance, and then went to a hot spring with many small fishes. Naruto still felt warm all over when he remembered the feeling of having his feet pecked by fish.After that, his father took him back to this room. Naruto liked this room very much.The bed is bigger than the one at home, and more relaxed than the one at the king's place.Originally, Naruto and his father had agreed to read novels in bed together and fall asleep when they got sleepy.But who knew that the enthusiastic shop owner would insist on giving them a massage.

Naruto was not used to being served by older people, but he felt that his father, who sat in the office and complained about muscle pain all day long, needed it.As a result, his father quickly fell asleep comfortably.But after seeing off the shopkeeper, Naruto was no longer sleepy at all.

"Naruto woke up so early." Minato's father hugged his son's neck, "What are you thinking about."

"I'm thinking of buying a pendant for my father that can hold my mother's photo. It's small and can be hung on my body, so that my father doesn't have to carry a big photo frame every day." Naruto told the truth.

"What a good son." Minato's father tilted his head, as if he was going to sleep again, "But your mother doesn't have a photo of her in a small size, and my father is reluctant to use scissors on your mother."

"Forget it." Naruto was a little disappointed.

"Who said that's all? I can hang Naruto's photo." Minato scratched his son's little nose, "Good son, buy it for daddy."

"Well, I will definitely pick a good-looking one for you." Naruto rubbed his nose, picked it out from his father's arms, went to the toilet, brushed his teeth, and then, his stomach growled and he was hungry.

"Naruto is really growing up." Minato's father heard the sound and got up, poking his son's belly, "Obviously he stuffed so many delicious foods last night, where did all the food go?"

"It's all turned into chakra." Naruto sighed, "Dad, aren't you hungry? I saw you didn't eat much yesterday."

"Civilian ninjas don't need to eat so much." Minato's father grumbled, "And have you forgotten, the Yakushi Jounin only allows dad to eat 8 cents full per meal."

"Ah, haha." Of course Naruto remembered, but, "Dad, it's hard to find a lot of delicious food."

"Then you can eat it freely." Minato handed his salary card directly to Naruto, "Dad finally got a salary increase this year, and some industries in Konoha finally made profits and dividends. Naruto wants to eat in the future How many Ichiraku Ramen dads can support you."

"Ha" Naruto looked at his father who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, and he didn't seem to be lying.

"Hey, Naruto, you don't believe it, do you?"

"Dad, although our family has never had much money." Naruto was suspicious, "You won't really embezzle public funds, will you?"

"Does the Hokage need to embezzle public funds?" Minato's father drew a dark line on his face.

"But our family actually has an industry." Naruto scratched his head while holding his father's salary card, "Why have I never heard you talk about it before?"

"Isn't it strange that dad has property?" Minato's father felt aggrieved, "Even Kakashi has private family property. Forget it, as long as Naruto knows his father's salary card now, you can swipe it at will. In the future, you can also directly use it for household expenses. It’s ready, by the way, remember to ask Kakashi and Gaara for food expenses every month, you can’t just eat and drink every day.”

"But dad, we live at Kakashi's house now."

"Don't worry, Naruto, dad will definitely clean up the mold in our house." Minato's dad clenched his fists, "We can move back soon."

"Well, it's still early. Dad continues to sleep. I'll go find the shop owner and ask for some food." Naruto realized that his father might not have woken up yet. "Do you want some chocolate?"

"Yes." Minato's father had already sunk into the soft sheets.

Naruto sighed and opened the door. In an instant, he smelled the food in the owner's hands. At the same time, he also felt what Jiraiya once said, "Naruto, ninjas are not the only ones in this world." It’s worthy of respect.”
