Naruto: Start with the Nine-Tails and take the Seventh Hokage as his apprentice!

Back in Konoha,

Tsunade succeeded the position of Hokage.

Sitting in the Hokage's office,

Bai Li's figure instantly appeared in front of Tsunade!

"How were the follow-up matters handled?"

"Basically, it's done. Now that the external diplomatic relations have been completed, we need to hold a memorial service and reveal Uzumaki Naruto's identity within the village."

Tsunade took out a stack of materials and handed them to Bai Li.

Bai Li glanced at it lightly and placed it on the table.

"You should discuss this matter with the Uchiha clan. They can now serve as your right-hand men and it shouldn't be that difficult to handle things."

"Yes, sir.

Bai Li seemed to have thought of something and continued

"What does the Fire Nation say?"

"I haven't received any letters yet, but I think the Fire Country's top brass won't let go of Konoha Village easily."

"Anyone who dares to interfere will be killed without mercy!"

Bai Li slowly stood up, and a sharp breath came from his calm tone!

"Let Orochimaru guide you in this matter. You must keep the entire Konoha Village in your hands. The disobedient Daimyo can be replaced."

Tsunade listened to such crazy speech and nodded her head honestly.

"Yes. I will ensure that the high-ranking officials of the Land of Fire remain rational and will not let them interfere in the affairs of Konoha Village."

Bai Li turned his head slightly and looked at Tsunade calmly.

"Don't bring personal information to public"

"I see……"

Then a strong wind swept through the Hokage's office, and Bai Li's figure disappeared.

Tsunade patted her chest lightly and took a long breath.

There was a knock on the door outside the Hokage's office.

""Come in."

A person dressed as an Anbu came in with a stack of information.

This was the Anbu member that Bai Li had developed in the past - An!

"My Lord asked me to be your deputy."

Tsunade stared at An for a while, and finally nodded her head.

"I understand. Put the information here."

Yan nodded woodenly, put the information in his hand steadily on the Hokage's desk, and turned to leave.

Tsunade propped up her head with her arms.

Staring at the figure of An leaving, the light in her eyes kept flashing, and I don't know what she was thinking.

A few days later, the memorial service was held as scheduled.

Tsunade stood on the high platform and said loudly

"Today is a sad day! I believe everyone knows that the Third Hokage, my teacher, died in the battle to defend Konoha. We are heartbroken and should hold a memorial service for the Third Hokage and the villagers who died in this war!"Tsunade paused and looked at the emotions of the villagers below the stage.

Well, it was well grasped.

Then she said

"The responsibility of the Third Generation to lead by example is something we admire immensely! However, the instigator of this incident was the former traitorous ninja Orochimaru, so I decided to ban and hunt down Orochimaru to prove that we in Konoha are not easy to mess with!!"

Suddenly, the villagers raised their hands!

"Revenge for the three generations!"

"Revenge for the Third Generation!"

Tsunade glanced at the woman next to her and blinked her eyes.

But the woman curled her lips.

"I'm always the scapegoat...……"

Backstage at the memorial service, two elderly people sat together, muttering:

"Should we go up and expose this dark memorial service?"

The two people here are Utane Koharu and Mizutomon En.

Mizutomon En murmured.

"The die is cast. No matter how hard we try, we can't change the outcome. Tsunade's appointment is also a good thing for us. It will allow us to enjoy our old age."

"Oh... Sarutobi and Danzo……"

Utane Koharu sighed slightly and stood up.

Then the two of them went straight to their respective homes.

Bai Li sat on a room.

Holding an apple in his hand, he moved his ears back and forth and ate it in big mouthfuls.

He watched Utane Koharu and Mitomon En walk away.

"It is indeed a wise choice."

Then his figure came directly to the top of the Hokage Rock.

"The scenery here is still the best."

At the memorial service,

Tsunade finished her long eulogy.

"Moreover, the one who saved Konoha from collapse this time was Uzumaki Naruto."

Suddenly the crowd was in an uproar.

"How could it be? How could it be him?"

"That demon fox?! How could he save Konoha?"

"This is unlikely."

Tsunade slammed the podium hard and shouted

"Quiet!"

"You are all wrong. He is not a demon fox. He is the son of a hero, the son of the Fourth Generation. The Fourth Generation saved you, and now his son has saved you. Don’t you feel guilty for treating his son like this?!"

After Tsunade finished speaking, the whole crowd fell into a long silence.

Then the crowd began to whisper.

"That demon fox is the son of the Fourth Generation?"

"Really? I used to treat him like that.……"

Then, even louder discussions followed, all of which were doubts and regrets about Naruto.

"You don't have to feel sad and blame yourself, because Naruto still has a long time, and what we have to do later is to make up for it. Everyone should be more attentive to the son of the Fourth Generation than to your own son, because that is the continuation of the Will of Fire."

The villagers began to blame themselves for what they did.

Finally, Tsunade clapped her hands.

"Now we bid farewell to the deceased and send him to the Heroes' Cemetery in Konoha!"

After the memorial service, Tsunade slumped in her office chair.

The woman transformed by Orochimaru sat in front of him.

"As expected, blaming Orochimaru for everything is the best outcome. Alas...it seems like there's no way to wash it off!"

"What are you sighing about? If you don't say that, the people of Konoha will lose their morale, and the adults' plans will be disrupted. What's the point of being sad? Do you want to disrupt the adults' plans?"

Orochimaru listened to Tsunade's conclusion and widened his eyes.

"How is that possible? Why are you still as unreasonable as before? I completely agree with all your decisions."

"You are so funny, isn't this just a joke?"

Tsunade:╮(￣▽￣)╭

Orochimaru:▼_▼

A cloud of smoke appeared in front of the two.

Bai Li hugged his arms and said

"Konoha is now handed over to you two and the Uchiha clan. You just watch over me. I'm going to be out for a while."

"Yes! I promise to complete the adults' instructions."

In Uchiha Fugaku's study,

Bai Li appeared in front of Uchiha Fugaku in an instant. At this time, Uchiha Fugaku was no longer surprised.

He stood up honestly.

"Sir, do you have any mission?"

Bai Li poured himself a cup of tea with ease.

"There is one thing that really matters. What do you think of your youngest son, Uchiha Sasuke?"

"Well……"

"To be honest"

"Actually, I don't have any opinion. I just hope he grows up healthy and happy. After all, the Uchiha clan has me and his brother, who can provide him with a piece of sky for protection."

Now Uchiha Fugaku has also received the eye patch of Bai Li.

The pair of red eyes have also turned into the eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.

"The pattern is too small."
