Konoha: Starting from being adopted by Tsunade

He graduated in two and a half years just because Natsume was too good.

With the help of Ena Uzumaki and the Wood Release Potion, his current body is in great shape. In terms of chakra content alone, he is no worse than an average jounin.

His only shortcoming now is his lack of combat experience.

After arriving in this world, Natsume has never experienced a life-and-death struggle at all, so naturally he has no experience.

There is actually a big gap between experienced and inexperienced ninjas.

For example, Uchiha Itachi, after graduating last year, he formed a team with Orochimaru's other two apprentices, Mitarai Anko and Uzuki Yugan.

The three of them have maintained a 100% mission completion rate so far, and have even exceeded the completion limit for several A-level missions.

It is now known as the strongest genin team in Konoha and is quite famous.

Theoretically, Natsume could fight back and forth with Uchiha Itachi who had the Sharingan opened by relying on his Wooden Power, but in reality it would probably be difficult.

This is the advantage that comes with experience.

Unless the force is too great, the bricks will fly.

With Naruto Uzumaki's vast amount of chakra, under the same conditions and experience, he could be defeated with one move.

No matter what, although Natsume is a genin, his overall strength is no worse than that of a chuunin.

With further training, you can become a Jonin.

This kind of speed can only be matched by a few people such as Uchiha Itachi.

"Natsume, congratulations on your graduation."

Tsunade had been standing outside the assessment classroom. When she saw him coming out and wearing a genin forehead protector, she immediately smiled.

Although she knew that Natsume was bound to pass the exam, as an 'adoptive mother', she would still be worried.

"I'm one step closer to becoming a Hokage man."

Natsume raised his thumb, pointed at his forehead protector, and said enthusiastically.

He had already figured out Tsunade's character and knew that doing this would make her happy.

Like, really like it.

Tsunade recalled her appearance when she graduated from the Nezuki Ninja School. Her expression was similar to the one in front of her.

That time and that moment, exactly this moment.

"Today is your graduation day, and my sister will give you a gift."

"OK."

Natsume looked at her expectantly, he loved gifts the most.

Tsunade smiled and took off the original necklace, put it around his neck and put it on.

The necklace is not cold, but very warm.

Natsume felt a little chilled when she thought about the legend of the original necklace.

In the original work, anyone who wears it will die, including Uzumaki Naruto.

But he is the protagonist, dead and alive again.

"This is the necklace my grandfather left me. It contains his Wood Release Chakra, which is very good for you."

Tsunade touched his head and explained.

Natsume wanted to refuse, but she gave him too much.

He remembered that this necklace was able to suppress even the Nine-Tails Chakra in the early stages, indicating that the amount of Wooden Release Chakra inside was not a small amount.

For him who knows wood escape, it is undoubtedly a great power bank.

That curse of death, Natsume said I have a cheat, what should I be afraid of.

"Tsunade-sama."

An ANBU ninja suddenly appeared, "Hokage-sama, I want to see you and Natsume."

The warm moment was interrupted, Tsunade looked unhappy and asked coldly: "Old man, what's the matter?"

"Hokage-sama didn't tell me."

The ANBU ninja looked at her carefully and answered respectfully.

Tsunade waved her hand.

He immediately disappeared.

"Let's go."

Tsunade took Natsume's hand and said, "Go and see what this old man wants to do."

Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was startled by the sudden opening of the door. He quickly covered the crystal ball in front of him and at the same time patted the blush on his face.

"Tsunade."

He knocked on his pipe with a calm expression and asked, "When did you stop knocking on the door like Danzo?"

"Okay, I'm in a hurry. If you need anything, please tell me."

Tsunade sat on the sofa boldly, not looking gentle at all.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was used to her personality, looked at Natsume with a smile, and said, "Today is my disciple's graduation, so of course I want to meet her."

"Grandpa Hokage." Natsume greeted immediately.

"What a good boy." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction.

In the past two and a half years, Natsume has always received perfect scores in theory classes.

There is a very deep understanding of the Will of Fire.

In some places, even Hiruzen Sarutobi felt enlightened after seeing it, and he really should do this.

This made him have a good impression of Natsume.

When Itachi Uchiha graduated at the age of seven, Hiruzen Sarutobi commented that he could think from the perspective of Naruto.

If it was Natsume, he felt that he should be the perfect successor to the Will of Fire, with a very clear understanding of all aspects.

"Let's get down to business."

Tsunade glared at him dissatisfied.

"Okay, okay, okay, when you grow up, you start to dislike me as a teacher."

After Sarutobi Hiruzen pretended to sigh, he said, "Since Natsume has become a ninja, as usual, he will be assigned teammates and teachers to lead the team. I have a preliminary candidate..."

"Need not."

Tsunade interrupted him, "I will be the leader of the team, and my teammates are Shizune and Kabuto Yakushi."

"But your hemophobia?"

It was precisely because Sarutobi Hiruzen knew about her hemophobia that he planned to arrange a trusted Jonin for Natsume.

"It's ready."

Tsunade raised her head and made a cut with a kunai. Blood flowed out, but she didn't react at all.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was ecstatic.

A normal Tsunade will have a great impact on Konoha.

In the battle with Sunagakure Village, it was she who turned the tide and defeated Granny Chiyo, otherwise, it would not have been so easy.

From this we can see the importance of Tsunade.

In fact, just being the best medical ninja in the ninja world is enough.

Before, he couldn't go to the battlefield because of hemophobia, and he was mostly disabled.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone was somewhat reproachful, but more of a happy tone.

Konoha now looks a bit like it did in its heyday.

In the older generation, he and Shimura Danzo can still fight, Uchiha Fugaku, Hinata Hizashi, Aburame Shiwei, etc. are all there, and now the Sannin has officially returned to his full form.

The younger generation, Kakashi Hatake, Matt Kai, Shisui Uchiha, Itachi Uchiha, etc. are gradually taking the lead.

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt his pressure drop suddenly.

The situation is great.

"In that case, let you lead the team."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was happy, but he didn't care about Natsume's problem, "However, I have to remind you that as a ninja, you have to work outside. Shizune, Natsume and Yakushi Kabuto are all children with good talents. If you protect them, it will It’s delaying their future.”

"I know."

Although Tsunade was reluctant to give up, she also understood that what Sarutobi Hiruzen said was right.

If the Ninja World War breaks out again and Natsume and others join the battle without experience, it will be for nothing.

"The war between Konoha Village and Cloud Hidden Village is coming to an end. You can take them to see the world."

Sarutobi Hiruzen suggested again, "If you appear at the border, Kumogakure Village may negotiate peace in advance."

"The latter is your goal, old man."

Tsunade snorted, but did not refuse, saying, "I will make arrangements myself, you don't have to worry about it."
