A Journey to the Heavens Beginning with Pirates

Tsunade had just returned, so naturally it was impossible for her to take office immediately.

In the original work, the reason why Tsunade immediately took over the position of Hokage as soon as she returned to the village was because the third Hokage had passed away and there was no buffer time at all.

But now, because of Su Yu's disturbance, the third generation has not died, so Tsunade has enough time to get familiar with the situation of Konoha Village after a long absence.

Now, the first thing Tsunade has to do is go to the hospital to treat Rock Lee, who may lose the qualification to become a ninja.

Rock Lee's problem is very difficult. Even if Tsunade, a medical expert, is responsible for the operation, the success rate is very low, and the result of failure is death.

So, should you risk your life and gamble on the slim chance of success, or should you give up your future as a ninja, but live without worrying about it?

This is the dilemma before Locke Lee.

Locke Li still needs to make his own choice on this issue. Even Akai, who is like a teacher and a father, has no room to intervene.

but--

"Xiao Li, if you die due to failed surgery, I will die with you!"

After Akai finished speaking, he showed a signature smile that was radiant.

With such support from his mentor, Rock Lee finally had enough emotional support, and he resolutely chose to bet on the probability of success.

Xiao Li's choice also surprised Tsunade.

She originally thought that Xiao Li would give up, but... they turned out to be the same fools as Shengshu and Duan...

Fortunately, in the end, Tsunade found a lot of information and improved the success rate of the operation a lot. With the favor of the God of Luck, the operation went very smoothly.

After passing this incident, perhaps Tsunade herself didn't realize that she no longer had the strong resistance to taking over as Hokage as before.

......

In the secret base of the Akatsuki organization, several special figures appeared here.

The reason why they are special is that their bodies are not entities, but colorful phantoms, and only their eyes look real.

This is the ability of the Samsara Eye. The magic of the lantern body can achieve real-time holographic image communication, which can be said to be very convenient.

Several members of the Akatsuki organization formed groups of two, and the one occupying the top spot had eyes that were clearly Samsara Eyes!

This person with the Samsara Eye is naturally the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

Leader Akatsuki: "You all know, right? The mysterious man who suddenly appeared in Konoha."

Everyone remained silent, acquiescing that they all knew. After all, they all knew about Bai Jue being scared back before.

However, they felt from the bottom of their hearts that Bai Jue was too timid. If it had been them at that time, the person who was scared away would have been that mysterious man.

This is also a common problem among members of the Akatsuki organization. They are arrogant. After all, they are all unruly S-class rebellious ninjas. They think that I am the most powerful person in the world, so how can they take an inexplicable person seriously.

At this time, the leader said again: "Itachi, Kisame, I heard that you have just been to Konoha?"

Itachi hummed coldly, while Kisame smiled and said nothing, as if it was none of his business.

Leader: "How is it? Have you met that mysterious man?"

Itachi: "I've met him, but I haven't fought against him before."

Leader: "Oh? So what is your judgment on this person?"

Itachi was silent for a while and only said four words: "Unfathomable!"

Hearing this, everyone cast curious glances.

Obviously, Itachi's evaluation of this person aroused their curiosity.

They naturally recognized Uchiha Itachi, both in terms of strength and talent.

And he has such a high opinion of this mysterious man, so maybe this mysterious man is indeed very powerful?

These madmen suddenly became interested in this mysterious man.

After hearing Itachi's judgment, the leader was silent for a moment. It was unfathomable. It was a simple four words, but it was a bit heavy.

Although Itachi's strength was far inferior to his, he still trusted Itachi's judgment.

Since Itachi said so, it means that this person will indeed become a threat to the Akatsuki organization.

After all, from the information he learned, the relationship between this mysterious man and the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki was very good.

But for him, the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki is inevitable.

So there will definitely be a battle between them and this mysterious man in the future!

Although he feels that he already possesses the power of a god, even calling him the God of the Ninja World is okay. Generally speaking, he is a little too arrogant and thinks that he is invincible.

But after Bai Jue came back before, when describing what he saw and heard, he used exaggerated rhetoric as much as possible to vividly display his fear at the time.

According to Bai Zetsu's description, it seems that as long as the Akatsuki organization solves this problem, the ninja world will be smooth, and other problems will no longer be a problem!

This inevitably had some impact on Leader Xiao's mentality. Although he still felt that he was invincible, he was indeed obsessed with that mysterious man.

After all, when Bai Jue was monitoring the shadows of various countries, he had never been discovered, and he had never been frightened like this. Therefore, in the heart of the Akatsuki leader, the mysterious man was the strongest besides him as a god.

Therefore, Leader Xiao felt that it was necessary to test the opponent's strength again.

As for who to send...

"Hidan, Kakuzu, you guys go to Konoha!"

Hidan didn't matter, and Itachi's evaluation made him interested in this mysterious person. To be evaluated like this by Itachi, what kind of person is he...

Kakuzu and the leader had a deep and heated discussion on whether there was a reward for this mysterious man.

In the end, Kakuzu was a little dissatisfied when he learned that there was no money to be made on this trip, but he still agreed, because in the end the leader agreed that he would pay for this trip and give Kakuzu a large sum of money.

For Kakuzu, making money is the most important thing.

After the meeting, Kakuzu and Hidan were exposed to the Phantom Body Jutsu without saying much, and immediately set off from their location and rushed to Konoha.

These two ruthless people didn't feel any palpitations at all about going to carry out a terrorist attack in Konoha, which was undoubtedly the largest ninja village in the world. Instead, they were very excited.

After all, these two are called the Immortal Duo!

At this time, Konoha naturally calmed down again after holding the Chunin Examination.

Su Yu was still reading quietly at Naruto's house. At this time, the sound of a key being unlocked came from outside the door. Then the door opened and Naruto walked in from the outside.

Seeing this, Su Yu said casually: "Hey, the date is over!"

Upon hearing Su Yu's teasing, Naruto's originally relaxed expression instantly collapsed.

Looking at Naruto's bitter face, Su Yu smiled instead. He said, "Why do you have such an expression? If a girl takes the initiative to ask you out, you can just have fun!"

Naruto sighed, a wry smile appeared on his face, and said:

"But...I like Sakura...not Hinata..."

Yes, it was Hinata who just asked Naruto out.

In fact, Hinata had wanted to date Naruto before when the Chunin Examination was over.

After Hinata was injured by Neji and was hospitalized, Naruto went to see Hinata and promised to help him beat Ningji up, and in the end Naruto did it.

So Hinata thought about asking Naruto out, thanking him in person, and giving Naruto the snacks she made to try.

Of course, thanking her was just an excuse. Hinata just used this excuse to want to meet Naruto.

However, Hinata was too shy and never gathered enough courage to ask Naruto out.

Just like that, when she finally made up her mind after struggling at home for several days, she found that Naruto had gone on a mission, and it was said that it was a long-term mission, a few months.

Hinata was disappointed and secretly sighed that she didn't have one.

But unexpectedly, Naruto, who he thought he wouldn't see again for several months, would come back in less than a week.

It was a pleasant surprise.

This time, Hinata didn't dare to delay any longer and summoned up the courage to ask Naruto out.

And just now, Naruto went to keep an appointment.

If it were the previous Naruto, he might not understand Hinata's feelings.

But during the time when Su Yu lived in Naruto's house, the two often chatted at night, and it was subtle. Naruto understood a lot about emotional matters.

Therefore, when he saw Hinata's expression and behavior when facing him, he still didn't understand Hinata's feelings for him.

But this made Naruto a little troubled.

Because he likes Sakura, but he really doesn't want to hurt Hinata. He can't even imagine what this weak girl will look like when he rejects Hinata.

However, he doesn't like Hinata either. If he accepts just because he doesn't dare to refuse, then it will be unfair to both himself and Hinata!

This puts Naruto in a dilemma. It's neither rejection nor acceptance. He can only delay it... Hinata doesn't speak, so he just pretends that he doesn't know...

Su Yu shook his head and said, "Young man, do you really like Xiao Ying, or do you think you like Xiao Ying?"

Naruto was stunned and said subconsciously: "Of course it is true. Is this kind of thing still fake?"

Su Yu stretched out his index finger and shook it: "In fact, people who really understand their true inner thoughts are a minority among the minority. Since you said you like Xiaoying, what do you like about her?"

Naruto said without thinking: "It's so cute and beautiful!"

Su Yu: "What else?"

Naruto thought for a while and then said: "She's just cute and beautiful!"

Su Yu said: "Now, let me tell you this, you like Sakura because she is cute and beautiful. Then, isn't Hinata beautiful and cute? Then why don't you like Hinata?"

Naruto was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

He is not blind, of course he knows that Hinata is also cute and beautiful.

However, he always felt that there was something wrong with what Su Yu said, but he didn't know how to refute it...
