And Xianglin.

It was the first time in so many years since her mother passed away that she felt maternal love from Tsunade.

However, for the benefit of the organization, she had to use Tsunade to spy on Konoha intelligence from the latter.

This made Xianglin suffer a lot in her heart. Under her seemingly optimistic and lively appearance, she actually lived in pain and self-disgust every day.

Therefore, death may not be a relief for Xianglin.

at this time.

When she saw Tsunade standing up to protect her without hesitation even though she knew she was a spy, Xianglin could no longer control herself, and tears burst into her eyes.

Then, her voice sounded behind Tsunade.

"Tsunade-sama, they are right, I am a spy of the Akatsuki organization. I have been lying to you all this time, I'm sorry."

Xianglin took the initiative to step forward, breaking the tense silence in the conference room, and then said to Kakashi and Itachi, "Two adults, Tsunade-sama has no idea about my identity from the beginning to the end. I hope you won't make it difficult. she."

Although Tsunade is determined to protect Xiang Rin.

But Xiang Rin didn't want to implicate Tsunade because of herself. This woman to her... was both a teacher and a mother.

"Xiang Lin, you..."

Tsunade grabbed her disciple's arm again and glared at the latter with an angry face, as if she was going to have an attack in the next second, but in the end——

She slowly let go of her hand.

Xiang Rin himself admitted his identity as a spy, and even Tsunade couldn't protect this disciple.

but.

Kakashi and Itachi did not immediately step forward to arrest them. Instead, after looking at each other, they each turned sideways and moved out of the way.

Immediately afterwards.

An invisible and huge pressure surged from outside the door like a tide, immediately filling the entire operating room, making people feel like they were under water a hundred meters deep.

Almost suffocated.

Before the person shows up, the aura arrives first.

Moreover, there was only one person in the entire Konoha who was even more powerful than Tsunade.

The Sixth Hokage Uchiha Dan.

A tall and majestic figure slowly walked into the operating room, like a ghost coming.

thump.

Xianglin fell to the ground on the spot, trembling all over, and her expression was filled with fear.

She couldn't even stand firm in front of the cross section.

Tsunade also looked pale.

The Sixth Generation Uchiha Dan was said privately by many to be the greatest Hokage in history, but also the laziest Hokage.

He never cared about the affairs of the village, big or small, and almost always left them to his subordinates to handle.

But at this moment.

Even this guy was present in person, which is enough to show the seriousness of the matter.

Xianglin is dead.

However.

What happened next was once again beyond everyone's expectations.

Duan's eyes swept across the operating room, and finally fell on Xianglin, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

After a moment of suffocating silence.

"You make your own choice, Uzumaki Kaoru."

Duan suddenly spoke and said something incomprehensible.

"Choose...what?" Xianglin looked up at this man who was as majestic as a god and spoke tremblingly.

"Whether you want to go or stay, it's up to you."

The statement was shocking and he promised Xiang Rin, "If you agree to cut off the connection with the Akatsuki organization, stay, and continue to stay with Tsunade, then you will treat it as if nothing has happened. However, if you want to leave, you can, no. Someone is stopping me."

After the words fell, everyone present widened their eyes.

Ignoring everyone who looked shocked, Duan walked to a chair aside and sat down, crossing his legs:

"I'll give you a minute to think about it."

After saying that, he crossed his arms and began to meditate with his eyes closed.

Then.

Swish, swish, swish.

Everyone's eyes fell on Xianglin, waiting for her to make a decision.

The conditions that Hokage-sama offered to Xiang Rin were extremely tolerant.

As long as she betrays the Akatsuki organization and joins Konoha, the crimes she has committed before will not be held accountable.

On the contrary, if she wanted to leave, she could escape without any punishment.

Time keeps passing.

Ten seconds, thirty seconds, fifty seconds.

This minute seemed short, but in Xianglin's heart it was extremely long.

Logically speaking, after hearing Suan's promise, she should not have any hesitation and could walk out of this room and leave Konoha on the spot.

after all.

In the beginning, it was Naruto and Teacher Konan who rescued Xiang Rin from the devil's cave in Cao Ninja Village and gave her a new life.

She couldn't help but repay the favor.

But when I think of Tsunade-sama, how she has cared for and cared for me over the past few years, and how she just wanted to protect herself at all costs...

Xianglin's heart fell into a fierce struggle for a while.

finally.

"Time is up."

Duan said calmly and opened his eyes again.

Xianglin clenched her fists, and after a fierce battle between heaven and man in her heart, she finally looked at Tsunade and said with all her courage:

"I'm sorry, Tsunade-sama."

then.

Without waiting for Tsunade to respond, Xiang Rin rushed to the window and jumped out.

"Xianglin..."

Tsunade murmured the name of her disciple, and she was obviously hit hard. She sat down on the stool, as if all the strength in her body had been taken away.

silence.

In the operating room, it was deathly quiet, no one spoke.

After a while.

"Take Sasuke to the ward to recuperate."

Shizune spoke first, letting Sasuke get on the cart and taking him to the ward.

Kakashi and Itachi looked at each other, then bowed to Dan and left with all the ANBU.

In the operating room, only Tsunade and Dan were left.

A long time passed.

"That child's personality is very similar to mine. It turns out that she is from the Uzumaki clan. No wonder she has a hot temper and is straightforward..."

Tsunade suddenly spoke, recalling Xianglin, and finally sighed, "I have always regarded her as my daughter."

Suan glanced at Tsunade with a puzzled expression:

"If you want a daughter so much, just give birth to one yourself. A biological child will not betray his mother."

"That's not necessarily true. Didn't the Six Paths Sage, the ancestor of your Uchiha clan, betray his mother and seal her into the moon?"

Tsunade sneered, as if she had found a punching bag for Suan, and said sarcastically, "And your daughter Marissa, I heard that she is very rebellious. She has always been against you as a father at a young age. When she grows up, From now on, I’m afraid I will betray you sooner or later.”

Duan heard the words and shook his head:

"No, it's just a game between our father and daughter. It's a kind of fun. You won't understand. You will know when you give birth to a daughter yourself."

"Born to whom?"

Tsunade rolled her eyes and asked angrily.

Duan was very enthusiastic and spread his hands towards Tsunade:

"To be honest, for the sake of our friendship for so many years, I can help you. It can also be regarded as helping others and continuing the incense of the Thousand Hands clan..."

"roll!"

Before Dan could finish speaking, Tsunade stood up and yelled angrily, interrupting his nonsense.

"OK."

The purpose of breaking was to distract Tsunade and make her feel better. Now that the purpose was achieved, she stood up and prepared to leave.

However, he had just reached the door.

"etc!"

Tsunade stopped her and said with some dejection, "Are you free? Come and have a drink with me."

Since quitting gambling.

When encountering such unhappy things, it seems that the only way left is to drink to drown the sorrows.

Duan thought for a while and said:

"I have a few bottles of good wine in my office. They were sent as tribute by wealthy businessmen from the Kingdom of Wind. I heard they are fifty years old."

"Walk."

Tsunade strode past Dank and was the first to walk out of the operating room.

Chapter 267, Samsara Eye and Marisa

Castle Tower, Hokage's Office.

The strong smell of alcohol filled the room. After several bottles of wine, Tsunade's face was red and she looked drunk.

If she didn't want to get drunk, no good wine would work, she would just have to use chakra to dispel the alcohol in her body.

This is an essential skill for female ninjas.

Unfortunately, the seemingly omnipotent chakra cannot dispel the sorrow in people's hearts.

And wine can.

So Tsunade accidentally drank too much and became completely drunk.

"My disciple... is actually a spy, haha... How ridiculous, Tsunade."

Tsunade murmured to herself, showing a self-deprecating look, then suddenly stared at Suan and asked intermittently:

"Let me ask you... why did you... let that guy Xianglin go? Damn it, how dare you play with me like this, I will never forgive her..."

"You are still being stubborn. If you didn't want to let Xianglin go, you would have taken action long ago. Is it my turn to come to the rescue?"

Suan glanced at Tsunade, put down the wine glass in his hand, and said calmly, "Those who forcefully keep Xianglin cannot keep her heart. So I let her go back and wait for her to wake up and cut off her relationship with the Akatsuki organization. After that, she will naturally return to Konoha. At that time, she will be your real daughter."

When Tsunade heard this, even in her drunken state, she was stunned for a moment.

This Lord the Sixth Hokage really has good intentions.
