Promote the theory of threat to Konoha, why Kirigakure brings Hide

Chapter 140 The Lighthouse on the Sea - Kirigakure Village

Sarutobi Hiruzen's words made Tsunade filled with grief and anger. At the same time, she also understood that her teacher was no longer the same teacher as before.

Hiruzen Sarutobi before becoming Hokage and after becoming Hokage were two completely different people.

No, or in other words, I have never seen through the teacher.

Why has Danzo Shimura been the leader of the Roots for so many years? Although he has experienced many turmoils, he has always been safe. Who is the person behind him? Tsunade already has the answer at this time.

Thinking of her brother and her boyfriend's dream of becoming Hokage, and looking at the thoughtful teacher in front of her, Tsunade suddenly felt a wave of nausea in her heart.

In that case, just leave.

After losing her younger brother and boyfriend one after another, and losing all the familiar Senju clan members, Tsunade, the last legitimate daughter of the Senju clan who was full of disappointment in Konoha, finally made the decision to leave Konoha.

The roots of Konoha have rotted. Although it still looks like branches and leaves are flourishing, the smell of rot has spread upwards from the roots little by little. The day of collapse may not be far away.

If that's the case, then leave while the village founded by your grandfather is still prosperous!

In this case, the lush and prosperous Konoha will always live in her mind.

"...Tsunade, Konoha is your forever home. If you are tired of walking, you are welcome to come back and sit down at any time to see me, an old man, and your friends."

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen was still blocked on the grounds that he was not old enough to show Konoha's sincere attitude, so he had to take action in person after all.

Since they were secretly going to Kirigakure Village to seek help, their revealed plan for this trip was to start from Konoha, then pass through small countries such as Fire Country, Sho Country, and Whirlpool Country, and then head to Kirigakure Village from the sea.

So after preparing relevant gifts and planning relevant action plans, the group finally set foot on the road to the Hidden Mist Village in the Country of Water.

As for the specific details of the negotiations, Tsunade will definitely not be allowed to take action.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the stern face of Senju Tobirama in the distance, half explaining and half comforting himself.
-

Although Tsunade agreed to go to Kirigakure Village as an envoy, it is obvious that this kind of formal diplomatic activity between the two villages, especially Konoha, has something to ask for. The relevant procedures, gifts, rhetoric, plans, etc. must be carefully planned. Polished.

Originally, Nara Shikaku wanted his son Nara Shikaku to step in for him. The fourteen-year-old Nara Shikaku has obviously inherited the high IQ gene of the Nara clan. He has considerable experience in making plans, dealing with people, and dealing with others at a young age. , Nara Shikakhan really wanted to take this opportunity to push his son out to make some achievements.

Moreover, Sarutobi Hiruzen's main purpose in letting Tsunade go was to use her identity as the granddaughter of Senju Hashirama, firstly to express his importance to Kirigakure Village, and secondly, to use this identity to seek help from the Uzumaki clan.

"Teacher, don't worry! No matter what I do, I will protect the inheritance you left behind. I will use practical actions to prove to you that you were not wrong in choosing me to become Hokage!"

Along the way, Tsunade's face became more and more gloomy, and even Nara Shikamaru's face did not show the slightest smile.

boom!

Tsunade's response to Sarutobi Hiruzen's words was such a dull sound of the door closing.

Because they discovered that in the Land of Fire, even around the city, bandits were rampant and bandits were everywhere.

Regarding Tsunade's decision, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only answer like this after being silent for a long time.

Although these robbers were not worth mentioning in front of them, it obviously also meant one thing, that is, even the richest Fire Nation on the mainland could not survive the three-year war. It still brings unbearable suffering to the people at the bottom.

Besides, Tsunade is now suffering from hemophobia and is no longer able to perform normal tasks as a ninja. Even due to the hemophobia, even medical treatment has been unable to be completed recently. After the war is over, let her go out to relax. That's not bad.

In addition to the two envoys, Tsunade and Nara Shikhan, there are only two handyman ninjas who make up the numbers.

Even though the group of them stayed day and night out of the idea of ​​hiding, they encountered more than three waves of robbers in these short two days.

As long as Tsunade can be persuaded to send an envoy to Kirigakure Village, then all the price can be paid.

In fact, the person who served as the diplomatic lobbyist for this time was the leader of the Nara clan and the deputy envoy of the Konoha mission, Nara Shikhan.

When Tsunade actually saw this scene, she suddenly had a new understanding of why Sarutobi Hiruzen had to seek help from Kirigakure Village, and a new understanding of what he had done before.

But understanding is understanding, this does not mean that she can approve of Sarutobi Hiruzen's behavior. She is still full of disappointment in Konoha.

Because of this, Tsunade kept a gloomy expression along the way and had no desire to talk to Nara Shikamaru. Nara Shikakhan was obviously very clear about the responsibilities of Tsunade and himself, and he didn't say anything when he saw this. The two of them just performed their duties.

However, as time went by, Tsunade's face became more and more weird, because she found that as the road got closer and closer to Kirigakure Village, the quality of life of the people here was getting better and better, and there was even a hint of fire. The weather before the war.

"This is the Kingdom of Whirlpool, right? I didn't expect that a few years after the Uzumaki clan moved away, there would still be such a scene."

An accompanying ninja came to the port of the original country of whirlpool, and saw the bustling flow of people, merchant ships, shouts and shouts of workers, and his face was full of doubts.

It's not like they have never been to the Kingdom of Whirlpool. They often came here to perform tasks when Uzushio Village was still there. They are very familiar with the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

But now the scene of the country of whirlpool is strange to them. After the dissolution of whirlpool village, not only has the place not declined, but the prosperity has even surpassed that of the past. How can they not be curious again?

"Over there, another boat is coming!"

At this moment, there was a loud noise, and the four Tsunade people looked over there curiously, and saw a huge creature covered in iron sheets, with thick black smoke constantly coming out of it, driving in quietly. The port.

"Then...what is that?"

A ninja looked at the iron ship in shock, wondering why the ship could still sail after being covered in iron.

"Go, go, country people, don't hinder our transactions!"

When a group of businessmen saw the iron ship docking, they quickly crowded on board and shouted crazily:

"Here, here, the Kingdom of Thunder weighs twenty thousand kilograms!"

"Ten thousand pounds from the Kingdom of Wind!"

"Five thousand catties of tea country!"

……

Before the ship even docked, the port was crowded with merchants waiting to unload their cargo, as if they couldn't get the goods if they didn't.

"Where did this cargo ship come from? What kind of things are on the ship? It's so popular..."

Tsunade stared blankly at the beast-like ship over there and the bustling crowd below, and suddenly felt that she and the others seemed to be in a different era than them.

They had been fighting to the death on the battlefield of Rain Country for three years. Did the ninja world secretly evolve without telling them?

"...Ahem!"

At this moment, the thick black smoke from the iron ship was blown by the wind and suddenly hit the faces of Tsunade and others.

This smell they had never smelled before was unbearable for a while, and they all coughed.

"No, this smoke is poisonous!"

As a master of medical skills, Tsunade smelled out that the black smoke contained many harmful substances to the human body the moment she took the first puff of black smoke into her nose.

Tsunade thought that the identity of herself and others had been exposed, and her expression immediately changed, and she was ready to remind everyone to put them on alert to prevent the unknown enemy from sneak attacks.

But I didn't expect that at this moment, a person next to me actually took the initiative to sink into the black smoke, taking a big sip as if enjoying it, and sighing while inhaling.

"Ah, is this the wonderful smell of the Industrial Revolution?"

Tsunade:?
