Konoha Tatsuno

The turmoil caused by Tatsuno's use of magic and celestial phenomena outside Konoha Village did not last long in the village.

In just a few days, the storm subsided.

After Tatsuno showed his strength enough to crush many forces in the village, all dissatisfaction seemed to disappear overnight.

Of all the people, Naruto and Sasuke were the most excited.

On the streets of Konoha, Tatsuno, Kakashi and Gai were walking side by side.

These days, Kai is the most frequent visitor.

What this guy likes to do most now is drag Tatsuno into a duel.

Two days ago, in a competition, this guy even directly opened the seventh gate.

After a brief confrontation, neither of them had a clear advantage.

Sa~

In front of the three of them, an ANBU ninja suddenly appeared.

"Jounin Akimichi Tatsuno, Hokage-sama invites you"

After the ANBU ninja appeared, he bowed respectfully to Tatsuno.

"Oh? Let's go!"

Hearing this, Tatsuno was slightly surprised. He nodded to Kakashi and Gai and then left with the ANBU ninja.

A few minutes later, Tatsuno arrived at the Hokage's office.

"Hokage-sama, why did you call me here?"

Tatsuno asked after bowing to the third generation.

For a long time after coming to the ninja world, Tatsuno always had a bad impression of the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen due to his preconceived and inherent prejudices.

In the original view of Tatsuno, Sarutobi Hiruzen was a politician who talked about balance and played tricks.

But in the past two years, Tatsuno's view of the third generation has gradually changed.

Because Tatsuno witnessed the changes of three generations with his own eyes.

With the influence of Tatsuno's rapid rise, the third generation's internal dealing style has undergone tremendous changes.

In the past two years or so, the third generation has strengthened its restraint on the roots, and its handling of the Uchiha clan has also tended to be more positive.

This is not the work of an aging, rotten politician.

In his previous life, those decisions he made might just be difficult choices made out of desperation at the time.

Therefore, Tatsuno still maintains due respect for the third generation.

"Tatsuno is here. It's no big deal to come here with you. I just have something to give to you." Sandai looked at Tatsuno and said with a smile.

Long Ye raised his eyebrows, looking puzzled.

Seeing this, the third generation picked up a voucher from the desk and handed it to Tatsuno: "I know you have always been interested in various ninjutsu materials in the village. This is a voucher representing the Hokage's identity. With it in the future, you can You can check any relevant ninjutsu information in the office building."

Tatsuno stretched out his hand to take the voucher. Hearing the words from Sandai's mouth, he immediately stopped for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Sandai in surprise.

"Long Ye, you don't have to be so surprised! Over the years, you have secretly made a lot of achievements for the village, but the village has never given you corresponding rewards.

Judging from the ninjutsu you performed a few days ago, no one in the village is at the same level as you now.

Moreover, your learning ability and creative ability have always been outstanding.

At this time, there is no point in detaining you anymore. Anyway, all these things in the village will belong to your younger generation, so it is no big deal to hand over this power to you in advance now."

Sandai said in a calm voice.

Tatsuno frowned and shook his head: "Hokage-sama, I think you have misunderstood. I have no intention of taking over the position of Hokage."

The Third Generation was a naked show of goodwill and wooing him, and the purpose was to tie him firmly to Konoha's chariot.

Tatsuno was not disgusted with this. On the contrary, he was also very interested in the many good things in the leaf village.

For example, the various forbidden techniques invented by the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama.

But if he wanted to push him to the position of Hokage because of this, Tatsuno would not agree.

Tatsuno, who is not an aboriginal, doesn't have the slightest bit of Hokage complex. If he can step aside as a hands-off shopkeeper, he won't waste time dealing with those numerous official duties.

As long as he is strong enough, he can enjoy his leisure while ensuring the peace of Konoha.

Hearing Tatsuno rejecting the hint in his words so decisively, the third generation couldn't help but have a flash of confusion and understanding in his eyes.

This lazy boy really doesn't want to bear any heavy burden.

Thinking about it, the third generation waved his hand and said: "I am not forcing you to take over the important task of Hokage. Regardless of whether you will be the fifth Hokage of Konoha Village in the future, you will still be a ninja of the Akimichi clan and Konoha Village. The village will never force you to do anything you don’t want to do again.”

Long Ye curled his lips when he heard this and secretly thought, "Have you done enough before?"

However, since the third generation talked about this, Tatsuno naturally no longer refused.

Tatsuno asked with a look of expectation on his face: "Hokage-sama, with this certificate, can I really check the information on all ninjutsu? Including forbidden jutsu?"

"It will be all right"

The third generation nodded.

"Great, thank you so much, Hokage-sama!"

After getting Sandai's affirmative reply, Tatsuno's face showed joy.

I didn't expect that after just showing one of my trump cards, I would be able to get such benefits.

After saying that, Tatsuno couldn't wait to say goodbye to the third generation, and then prepared to go to the library on the third floor of the Hokage Building to collect various ninjutsu scrolls.

Seeing Longye leaving in a hurry, Sandai also had a faint smile on his face.

In general, this kid has always been interested in Konoha. If he can be completely networked, it will be difficult for anyone to shake Konoha's position in the ninja world.

Thinking like this, Sandai's thoughts couldn't help but turn to Danzo's roots.

In Konoha, the one who had the deepest grudge against Tatsuno was Danzo and his subordinates.

This hidden danger must be eliminated!

Caoyin Village, in the chief's office.

Orochimaru was sitting at his desk, holding an information scroll in his hand and flipping through it carefully.

This information was sent from Kabuto Yakushi from Konoha, and it was related to Tatsuno and Hoten Shoji.

"I didn't expect Tatsuno-kun to have reached this point. It seems that this guy was hiding more than just that!"

After reading the information recorded on the intelligence scroll, Orochimaru's eyes flashed and he murmured in a low voice.

How many years has it been since he left Konoha?

Akimichi Tatsuno's strength has actually reached such a terrifying level.

Judging from the information recorded in Yakushi Kabuto's intelligence scroll, his strength is probably no less than that of the leader of the Akatsuki organization who possesses the Samsara Eye!

If there was no secret in this, Orochimaru would never believe it.

With his eyes flickering, Orochimaru fell into deep thought.

"Huh! It seems it's time to find a chance to meet Tatsuno-kun again."

After a moment, Orochimaru let out a breath, licked the corner of his mouth with his long tongue and whispered softly.

As he spoke, Orochimaru's eyes flashed with a strange light.
