Chapter 67 The Old Fox (Tsunade Chapter Begins)

Shortly after the death of the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato, his wife contracted a serious illness due to excessive grief and proposed to return to the Country of Whirlpool to live.

She gave her and the Fourth Hokage's only child to her sister, Uzumaki Kushina, to raise.

……

On this day, Danzo found Sarutobi Hiruzen, and the two old Yinbi who had not seen each other for a long time met again.

The two sat opposite each other, Danzo leisurely sipping the tea in the cup. Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen was doing the same and had no intention of speaking, he couldn't help but curse the old fox in his heart.

In desperation, he had to speak first: "Minato has been sacrificed for a while. Konoha cannot live without Hokage for a day. We must choose a new Hokage as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen also cursed the old fox in his heart. When Minato was alive, he called others a mud ghost, but now that he died, he started calling people Minato again. He really changed his face faster than flipping through a book.

In a sense, the two do have an extraordinary tacit understanding...

"You're right, it's time to elect a new Hokage." Hiruzen Sarutobi took a sip of tea and said calmly: "So do you have a suitable candidate?"

Danzo glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen, pretended to think about it, and said, "How is Hatake Kakashi?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Danzo in surprise when he heard this, and then calmly shook his head, "Kakashi is too young, and his strength and knowledge are still too shallow."

"What about Nara Shikaku? As Minato's former chief think tank, isn't his ability sufficient?" Danzo said again.

Sarutobi Hiruzen continued to shake his head: "Shikaku's ability to handle government affairs is indeed first-class, but his strength is not enough to deter other ninja villages."

"What about Uchiha Fugaku? He is an impeccable ninja in terms of strength and skills. He should be able to be the Hokage." Danzo asked again.

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and angrily said, "Danzo, have you forgotten Tobirama-sensei's instructions during his lifetime?"

"The Uchiha clan, no matter how outstanding they are, cannot be allowed to become Hokage!"

Seeing this, Danzo sneered disdainfully. At this moment, he remembered Teacher Tobirama's instructions?

"Then tell me, who else can be Hokage?" Danzo simply put on a "show off" attitude and let Sarutobi Hiruzen do the talking.

Hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi had a weird smile on his face, and he suddenly approached Danzo, staring at him closely: "In my opinion, the only people who can handle the important task of being Hokage are you and me!"

Danzo clenched his hands unconsciously, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on his back, but on the surface he still looked like he had lowered eyebrows and no desires.

"Stop joking Sarutobi."

"Hahahaha!" Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen laughed loudly and explained: "Well, don't mind, I just want to liven up the atmosphere, after all..."

"How can you be Hokage, right?"

Danzo was really murderous at this time, this old guy Sarutobi was obviously humiliating himself!

But the years of cultivating his qi still allowed him to endure it, and said seriously: "I still have a few candidates."

"Oh, then I'm all ears." Hiruzen Sarutobi took a puff of his cigarette and said.

"Your three apprentices, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Tsunade, and that boy Jingu Xiyue."

"Oh, how many of them..." Hiruzen Sarutobi stroked his white beard and thought seriously.

After a while, he blew out a thick smoke ring, and the smoke ring just hit Danzo in the face. Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have not seen it, and said to himself:

"Jiraiya's character is too out-of-touch. Orochimaru is obsessed with studying useless things every day. Xiyue also made it clear that he will not be Hokage. As for Tsunade..."

"As the granddaughter of the first and second generation adults, she is indeed suitable in terms of status and strength, but she has no fixed address. Even I, the master, don't know where she is now."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, his three apprentices were all good, but none of them had the goal of becoming Hokage. Should I say they were short-sighted, or indifferent to fame and fortune?

"If you don't know where, just look for her. Regardless of whether Tsunade becomes Hokage or not, she must return to Konoha. This time the Nine-Tails Rebellion made me see one thing clearly. A medical team must be set up."

"And Tsunade is the perfect candidate to be the captain of the medical team!" Danzo said firmly, with a tone that did not allow for criticism.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded in agreement. The Nine-Tails Rebellion had brought too many casualties to Konoha. At this time, the importance of medical ninjas was reflected.

As the most powerful medical ninja today, Tsunade must recall her to Konoha!

"But, we are short of manpower now, who should we send to find Tsunade?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

Just waiting for your words!

Danzo narrowed his eyes slightly, took a sip of tea, and then said slowly: "That boy Jingu Xiyue is pretty good."

"We all know his strength. Even the Shadow of a Village may not be able to do anything to him. It would be most appropriate for him to find Tsunade."

"Oh, Xiyue..." Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a moment, and then nodded in agreement, "Xiyue is indeed the most suitable candidate."

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen nod, Danzo chuckled, and he knew Sarutobi would agree, which would be beneficial to both parties.

With Jingu Xiyue's growing reputation in Konoha, it's okay that he doesn't want to be Hokage, but as long as he has the idea of ​​​​being Hokage, no one can compete with him.

In line with the principle of not being afraid of ten thousand, be afraid of the worst, it was a tacit consensus reached by both parties that Jingu Xiyue left the village. Only when he left could Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen have the opportunity to sit on the position of Hokage.

……

At this time, Shen Gong Xiyue was at home, receiving a young guest.

"Xihi Hong, right? Sit wherever you want. You don't have to follow any rules here." Shen Gong Xiyue said casually.

He just wanted to do something shy with Kaguya, but was interrupted by Kurenai Yuhi who suddenly came to the door.

But fortunately the foreplay hasn't started yet, otherwise he might have to walk hunched over.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiyue, I, I'm here to pay back the money this time." Xihihong said with some restraint.

"Repay the money, when did I lend you the money, why didn't I know?" Xiyue scratched her head, expressing that she knew nothing about the matter.

"Don't you remember..." Hong's eyes became a little lonely when she heard this. She thought that her appearance would leave some impression on Mr. Xiyue.

At this time, Kaguya brought the brewed tea, and while putting the tea, she quietly said to Jingu Xiyue: "Ichiraku Ramen."

After saying that, she came to Yuhi Hong, nodded to her, and handed her the tea.

After doing all this, Kaguya left directly and ran to the bathroom to wash herself.

Well, there will be a big battle later, so prepare yourself in advance.

Looking at Kaguya's retreating figure, Yuhi Hong felt mixed.

It turns out that Mr. Xiyue already has a girlfriend, and her girlfriend is so beautiful. Just looking at each other makes her feel ashamed.

Then shouldn't I bother Mr. Xiyue...
