Naruto: I was reborn as Uchiha Sasuke

Chapter 27 Looking for Tsunade

On the afternoon of April 64, 4, with the official publication of the Fire Nation's official newspaper and the solemn announcement of the news by government officials, the entire Konoha was instantly filled with a buzz of discussion. After all, just yesterday, Konoha had just dealt with the difficult matters related to the Third Hokage and the ninjas who unfortunately died in this incident.

When Kakashi saw the news, especially the description of the death of the Third Hokage, his brows furrowed like two deep ravines. He couldn't help but take a breath and sighed in his heart: "I didn't expect Konoha to have fallen into such a situation. Where should it go in the future?" His eyes were full of confusion and worry. He clearly realized that the Fire Nation's perception of Konoha had reached its lowest point. At the same time, he was also deeply afraid of the darkness hidden in Konoha, and felt that the future development was even more bleak, as if he was in endless darkness and couldn't find a glimmer of light. He held his head in his hands and thought painfully, "Is Konoha really going to decline? How should I deal with it?"

At the same time, Danzo was furious when he heard the news. He gritted his teeth, his expression twisted to an almost ferocious state, and the resentment in his heart burned like a raging fire. "This great opportunity slipped away like this. How can Tsunade become the fifth Hokage!" When he heard what Hidenobu said later, he thought that Orochimaru had deliberately planned to take revenge on Sarutobi Hiruzen, so that even if Sarutobi Hiruzen survived, he could take the opportunity to become the Hokage. But he never expected that the daimyo would directly appoint Tsunade as the fifth Hokage. Danzo, who was blinded by anger, wanted to wave his hand and order his men to go and scare the daimyo, trying to change the situation. But when he learned that the Fire Nation government had successively sent Jonin guards to the Hidden Thunder Village, the Hidden Iwa Village and other places, he clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, and he trembled with anger. Knowing that this move was extremely risky, he had no choice but to give up, secretly regretting: "I really miscalculated this time. If I act impulsively again, the position of Hokage will really be out of my reach." This failure made him understand that as long as he made the slightest mistake and was discovered by ninjas from other countries, he would basically lose the right to inherit the Hokage completely. The unwillingness and resentment in his heart gnawed at his heart like a snake.

On the one hand, the two senior advisors, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado En, could not help but sigh that the Daimyo's idea coincided with theirs, and they all hoped that Tsunade would become the Fifth Hokage. However, on the other hand, they were full of worries. They were both gloomy-faced, like eggplants hit by frost, and they were worried. They were worried that if the information about the Wood Release experiment was revealed to the Daimyo, it would be a blessing or a curse for Konoha. In general, they were deeply worried about the future of Konoha, as if a heavy boulder was pressing on their hearts, and they could not let it go. They silently said in their hearts: "Konoha is now in a precarious situation, and the road ahead will not be easy."

Sasuke learned the news in advance. Qing originally wanted to thoroughly investigate the suicide of White Fang, but was persuaded by Sasuke not to do so. After all, Konoha's military strength is extremely strong, and the slightest mistake may anger the Konoha high-level officials. The issuance of the task of the Jonin escort to the Hidden Light Village and the Hidden Rock Village through the Fire Country government has made the Konoha high-level officials fearful. They know very well that if they act rashly at this time, it is likely to cause a series of unpredictable serious consequences. Qing hesitated in his heart: "Should we just let this opportunity go? But what Sasuke said makes sense, it is better to be cautious." His face was full of entanglement and struggle.

Utane Koharu and Mitokado En solemnly summoned Jiraiya to come over. They stretched out their hands, their faces full of seriousness and heaviness, and persuaded him earnestly: "Jiraiya, you are also aware of the latest news released by the Daimyo. Now, the Daimyo's trust in Konoha is almost zero. After careful consideration, we also agree with the Daimyo's opinion to let Tsunade become the fifth Hokage."

Jiraiya heard this, and although he couldn't help but complain about the darkness hidden in Konoha, "How could Konoha become like this? It's really disappointing." But he nodded and said, "I will go find Tsunade. But I want to take Naruto with me." His eyes were firm and persistent. Upon hearing this, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado En looked at each other, and after a little negotiation, they finally agreed to let Naruto and Jiraiya go together, thinking, "I hope this can bring a turnaround for Konoha."
