Just when Tsunade was trapped in the meaningless assumption of "what if", Sakura in the tavern explained to Jiraiya how Naruto knew about his life experience.

"Is that so...you did the right thing, and I should learn to trust Naruto a little more."

Jiraiya smiled self-deprecatingly.

Yes, Jiraiya actually understands Naruto’s character. Even if he knew his life experience, he would definitely not betray Konoha.

Jiraiya's failure to tell Naruto about his life story was actually a subconscious way of avoiding the issue.

Jiraiya was unwilling to believe that his teacher would treat Minato and Kushina's orphans in this way.

It's not Naruto who really can't accept the truth, but himself.

After all, this is Naruto's own life, and he will have to face this problem sooner or later.

“Naruto, I know that Lady Tsunade said that the Hokage are all idiots and that made you feel insulted by the Yondaime.

However, everyone's situation is different. If you have experienced her situation, you may understand why she did this."

Sakura continued to patiently persuade Naruto, but of course, she wanted to say more to Tsunade who was most likely eavesdropping outside the door.

“Tsunade-sama’s younger brother, and a young man who, like you, wanted to become Hokage;

However, the desire to become Hokage made him eager to make achievements, and he eventually died on the battlefield.

Later, her lover became the same as her brother…”

Sakura briefly recounted Tsunade's life story, and Naruto, who was originally angry, calmed down after listening to Sakura's statement.

Naruto also didn't expect that Tsunade's experience would be so tragic.

"Naruto, if you were Tsunade, your family and lover all died on the road to the position of Hokage; your teacher began to become more and more unfamiliar after becoming Hokage; the junior you favored resolutely sacrificed for the village after becoming Hokage; even the defection of your best friend was inextricably linked to the Hokage...

In Tsunade's experience, except for her grandfather and second grandfather, all the relatives and friends who had anything to do with the position of Hokage all suffered misfortune; Naruto, if you were her, would you think that those who wanted to seek the position of Hokage were fools! "

After Sakura finished speaking, she looked at Naruto and saw that his eyes were indeed red, as if they would drop little pearls at any time.

In fact, Sakura is still not sure whether the reason why Orochimaru left the village was pushed by the Third Generation Group, but this does not prevent Sakura from using Orochimaru's deeds to increase her efforts to whitewash Tsunade.

Sakura felt that although there were many tragedies in the ninja world, Tsunade's experience was one of the most dramatic, if not the worst.

The eldest daughter of a prominent family has seen her family gradually fall into decline. Her beloved brother and her lover have passed away one after another, and her beloved teacher has also drifted away from her. She can only wander around the world with her lover's last relatives...

Isn’t this a typical heroine in a sad novel?

At this moment, Tsunade, who had been eavesdropping outside the tavern, felt a ripple in her heart after hearing what Sakura said, and her eyes became moist like Naruto's.

“She really understands me!”

Sakura's words touched her heart, and she didn't expect that this girl knew her so well.

Tsunade was unwilling to be Hokage on the one hand because she didn't want to argue with those old guys, and on the other hand she felt that the position of Hokage was cursed and that there would be no good ending if she got involved.

Tsunade even felt that this pink-haired girl, whom she had only met once, understood her better than Jiraiya.

But how did she know her life story?

It must have been that bastard Jiraiya who let it slip!

Damn old white-haired guy, he can't even control his mouth.

What Sakura didn't know was that while she was improving her favorability in Tsunade's heart, Tsunade also made a big note for Jiraiya in her little notebook.

At the same time, Jiraiya in the tavern drank the sake in his cup and lamented Tsunade's ill-fated fate:

I didn't expect Sakura to know Tsunade's life so well.

Did Kakashi tell her?

This little white-haired guy doesn't even know how to control his mouth.

"Sakura, I understand.

Grandma Tsunade's experience was very tragic, and it is understandable that she hated the position of Hokage.

I forgive her for speaking rudely to the Hokage."

Naruto rubbed his eyes and said solemnly.

Seeing Naruto like this, Jiraiya's eyes couldn't help but twitch:

I gave you a stick and you really took advantage of it!

Who is Tsunade? Does she need your forgiveness?

Sakura told you so much simply because she was afraid that you would go up there and die!

"Sakura, according to what you said, we can't persuade Tsunade?"

Jiraiya asked Sakura tentatively, wanting to test how much she knew about Tsunade.

"No, Lady Tsunade will definitely become the Fifth Hokage!"

Sakura shook her head, denying Jiraiya's statement.

"Eh?"

Naruto was the first to raise doubts.

Jiraiya also signaled Sakura to continue with his eyes.

"Although Lady Tsunade refused the request to become Hokage, she only hated the position of Hokage, not Konoha Village.

No matter what, Lady Tsunade is still the granddaughter of the first generation. It is impossible for her to just stand by and watch Konoha fall into trouble.

I can see that she still cares about Konoha in her heart."

Hearing what Sakura said, Jiraiya nodded in agreement.

Sakura's thoughts coincided with hers. Based on Jiraiya's understanding of Tsunade, he was sure that her feelings for Konoha would not be so easy to give up.

Tsunade, who was eavesdropping, was also startled when she heard Sakura say this, and began to examine her own heart:

Do I really think so?

Maybe so. Over the past few decades, I have seen Konoha Village gradually deviate from the Konoha that my grandfather imagined, and I could only watch it all happen with no way to change it.

And the enthusiasm to change Konoha gradually cooled down amid repeated disappointments.

"Oh?

So Sakura, how do you think we can persuade Tsunade to return to Konoha?"

Jiraiya looked at Sakura with great interest. He felt that since Sakura saw Tsunade so clearly, she must have had a specific plan in mind to persuade Tsunade to return to the village.

"This is easy. I believe that although Lady Tsunade has rejected our request, she will be stuck in a dilemma for a long time when she returns.

I believe that after careful consideration, he will definitely realize his true feelings and know that he still cannot let go of Konoha.

All we need to do is give her a way out.”

Sakura smiled and expressed her thoughts.

"Stairs? Tell me what you think exactly."

Jiraiya was aroused by Sakura's words.

"It's very simple. According to my observation, Lady Tsunade is addicted to gambling. If we grasp this point..."

Just like that, Sakura and Jiraiya began to loudly plot against Tsunade in front of her.
