Noon.
Tsunade finally woke up, rubbing her forehead, which was aching from the hangover. "Shizune, I seem to remember we won a lot of money last night… Did you go buy the wine?"
"I… I bought it… Lady Tsunade…" The special Jonin of the Konoha Medical Department replied with a trembling voice, her heart pounding.
First thing in the morning, Shizune had been shooed out by Tsunade to buy wine. When she returned to the inn, she saw the two heads from the Hokage Rock swaying in front of her…
Medical-nin generally have strong hearts.
It was just that these two particular reanimated individuals were not human…
No, they were not ordinary people.
When Tobirama Senju first saw his little grandniece sobbing in her sleep, a tender feeling had welled up in his iron heart. However, hearing her indulgence with his own ears now, he couldn't help but scold her, "What has become of you! Where is there even a hint of a princess's decorum!"
"…Tobirama, don't be angry!" Hashirama Senju forcefully held down his younger brother's shoulder, stood up, and went to Tsunade's side, patting her blonde hair. "Tsunade, you've had a hard life…"
"(#Д)!"
Tsunade subconsciously rubbed her eyes vigorously… She couldn't quite believe what was happening before her, and yet, it was also very reasonable!
These days, was there anything Orochimaru couldn't do?!
"So this is that Edo Tensei jutsu that desecrates the dead, summoning First Grand-uncle and Second Grand-uncle back from the Pure Land…" The old blonde woman's eyes regained their focus. She clenched her fists, fuming, "That guy Orochimaru, what a fine thing he's done!"
That fellow Orochimaru was truly no good. The two deceased people she yearned to meet, yet that old friend of hers had never thought of letting her see them.
Winning money last night was really not a good thing after all!
And the two people she feared seeing and respected the most had just appeared so abruptly before her. "First Grand-uncle and Second Grand-uncle, why are you here?"
"Ahahahaha… It seems it was that little kid named Orochimaru who summoned me back from the underworld. But as a result, he accidentally allowed me to possess my full-powered strength…"
After a loud laugh, Hashirama Senju held up a finger and pointed to the sky. "But his power was too weak. After a great battle last night, I broke free of his control…"
Compared to his rather magnanimous older brother, the great strategist Tobirama was too embarrassed to tell the truth. "My revival was an accident, and it has some connection to Orochimaru, but now I also have ample freedom…"
There wasn't much wrong with saying that. If Orochimaru hadn't messed up, he wouldn't have fallen into the crow's hands.
Painful memories gradually flooded the great strategist Tobirama's mind…
Back then, Orochimaru had attempted to kidnap Mikoto Uchiha in Konoha and was nearly killed on the spot by the crow.
Originally, Orochimaru had wanted to revive the Second Hokage on the spot, but he never expected that the Edo Tensei would be a common technique that even a bird could use. Instead, Kitahara snatched the materials and revived Tobirama.
Because that crow's strength was too great, it also led to a situation where Tobirama had no way of breaking free from the jutsu's control. The day he sat idly in the Uchiha clan head's house, watching Sasuke Uchiha and Kitahara bicker and fight, was the beginning of the great Second Hokage's humiliation!
Tsunade noticed that the great strategist Tobirama's expression was off and cautiously asked in a low voice, "Second Grand-uncle, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
"I'm fine, it's you who…"
Tobirama Senju turned around and resentfully poked Tsunade's head. "You are the granddaughter of Konoha's First Hokage, the princess of the Senju of the Forest. In your current state, how can you bear the heavy burden of protecting Konoha!"
Since her two elders had already witnessed her drunken disgrace, Tsunade could only put on a thick-skinned act. "The situation in the village is not bad. There's a kid named Itachi Uchiha who is already capable of taking on the responsibility of protecting Konoha. He also has great potential to become Hokage…"
"Is it that little fellow named Itachi Uchiha?"
The God of Shinobi rubbed his chin, thought for a moment, then nodded. "To become a Jonin at such a young age, he is indeed a genius in terms of strength. That little fellow already has a three-tomoe Sharingan, right?"
Tsunade shook her head. "No, First Grand-uncle. Itachi awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan three years ago!"
Hashirama Senju was suddenly choked. "Huh? Is that so? Why do I feel like he's a very sunny child!"
According to his understanding, after awakening the Sharingan and the Mangekyo Sharingan, the spiritual energy of an Uchiha should far exceed their physical energy, so their emotions would be more complex.
Such people generally had extremely stubborn personalities, and their emotions were very susceptible to being corrupted by darkness, like Madara Uchiha and Izuna Uchiha, who were somewhat obstinate and proud.
Or maybe tsundere.
Itachi Uchiha didn't seem like the type to have a Mangekyo.
"Hmph! That kid is not like an Uchiha at all!"
Tobirama Senju snorted coldly. "He almost never uses his Sharingan, is extremely skilled in sage arts, and possesses a Sage Mode nearly as powerful as my big brother's…"
"O(∩_∩)O Haha~ That's really a fateful coincidence!"
After a few laughs, Hashirama Senju nodded a little awkwardly. "Little Tsuna, is that little fellow the one you've decided will be the next Hokage?"
"That's right."
Tsunade raised an eyebrow, looked at the necklace on the First Hokage's head, and said softly, "The old man… the Third Hokage also greatly recognizes Itachi's wisdom and believes he can take over the position of Hokage in the future."
The prerequisite was… that no one tried to change the current structure of Konoha.
The entire Hidden Leaf Village was still rife with undercurrents. The conflict between the Uchiha clan and certain people in Konoha was still severe. In recent years, Danzo Shimura had frequently claimed to have been assassinated by the Uchiha, using it as a pretext to target the clan.
When she saw that necklace, she knew that her two grand-uncles had already met Itachi Uchiha. She couldn't be sure if a conflict had broken out between them, nor could she be sure if the two old men were willing to acknowledge a descendant of the Senju's enemy as the successor to the Hokage's position.
If the First and Second Hokage returned to the village, even if they were deceased, with their status, it would be very easy to cause turmoil in Konoha's current state…
"Hmph, that kid's character is not suited to be Hokage!"
No matter how many times it was said, Tobirama Senju would always hold a certain degree of opposition to this. Did Lord Tobirama need a reason to oppose an Uchiha?
"But Second Grand-uncle…" Tsunade hesitated, intending to analyze the situation in Konoha for them and, while she was at it, praise Itachi.
After voicing his opposition, Tobirama still rationally returned to reality. "But with the decline of talent in the village these years, we really can't find a more outstanding candidate than that kid…"
Tsunade: "…"
That's… a compliment, right?!
"Tsunade, I have something to tell you!"
The great strategist Tobirama said with great solemnity, "A few years ago, that crow and Kisame Hoshigaki founded an evil organization that endangers the ninja world. I have been infiltrating this organization to monitor them. In recent years, Itachi Uchiha joined this organization, colluding with Kisame Hoshigaki, and has often disrupted my plans…"
Tsunade's face was full of question marks. "Huh? Something like that happened?"
"…But from what I heard them say yesterday, I feel like it's a righteous organization!" Hashirama weakly raised his hand, peeking at his younger brother.
The God of Shinobi didn't need to use his brain most of the time, but it wasn't like he didn't have one!
Yesterday, Tobirama Senju had righteously proposed that they should, under the pretext of 'gathering extremely dangerous rogue ninjas,' attempt to occupy the Hidden Rain Village as a branch base for the organization. Hashirama had heard it loud and clear from the side!
From that imposing manner, if you didn't know better, you'd think Tobirama Senju was the leader of the organization!
