Chapter 309: Inauguration as the Fifth Hokage
Tsunade finally returned to Konoha Village with Jiraiya, and returned to the wooden house she had been away from for a long time.
Apart from being a bit deserted, it still looks the same as before, and it seems someone still cleans it regularly.
Seeing the familiar environment and room furnishings, Tsunade was somewhat moved.
"Lady Tsunade... we have a guest!"
Shizune, who was standing by, reminded her weakly while holding the pig. Tsunade took a deep breath and caught a glimpse of the two people outside the yard from the corner of her eye.
"come in!"
After getting the consent, two people stepped in from the door. These two people were none other than Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu. They were the ones who handled the affairs of the village during the days when the position of Hokage was vacant.
Even so, they already have a lot of work piled up, and some important decisions still need to be made by the Hokage.
After all, they are all very old and just covet the benefits that come with this position, and dare not overstep their authority like Danzo did.
The purpose of the two people coming here is naturally self-evident. After they sat down, each other's voices were heard.
"Tsunade, welcome home!"
The two old guys came to visit in person and were quite respectful to Tsunade, after all, she was the granddaughter of the first and second generations.
Tsunade just nodded slightly to the two respected elders.
"Tsunade, now that you're back, we'll hold your inauguration ceremony in two days!"
Utane Koharu spoke first, saying that although it was exciting to be in charge, the complicated work was also a burden for them now, and they would rather come out and give orders occasionally.
After hearing this, Tsunade did not reply to them immediately, but instead asked about the current situation in the village.
"Danzo and his Root suffered the heaviest losses, and are almost dead in name only!"
They usually look down on each other's style of doing things, and even after working together for decades, they just feel a little sad about each other's misfortune.
And without him, Konoha might even have more power.
"In addition to the Root, the Anbu and other ninjas also suffered some losses..."
The two of them talked back and forth and talked about the current situation in Konoha in detail.
After half a day, Tsunade had a general understanding of the situation in the village, and she felt that Orochimaru's actions had saved her a lot of trouble.
"How did the major families behave at that time? What is their attitude now?"
Although she is qualified enough to serve as a or, she also has to find out the details of these families. If anyone dares to make a move, she doesn't mind killing the chicken to scare the monkey and ignite the first fire after taking office.
"Since the Uchiha incident, all the major families have been very peaceful, but they are still keeping a wait-and-see attitude..."
This was a decision made jointly by Danzo and the Third Hokage. Now that both of them are dead, they have nothing to hide.
This kind of thing is a secret in front of outsiders, but the Hokage has the right to know, otherwise it will be difficult to carry out his work!
The news of Tsunade's return gradually spread in the village, and among them there was a little kid who was particularly opposed to Tsunade becoming the fifth Hokage.
This person is Konohamaru. He is afraid that people will forget his grandfather, and he is also afraid of what changes Tsunade will make to the village after taking office.
So in the next few days, Tsunade was making trouble everywhere while she was still familiar with the business of Hokage.
However, Tsunade did not bother with him. On the one hand, the other party was a child, and on the other hand, no matter how much she said, it would be useless, and time would prove everything.
On the day when Tsunade took office as the fifth Hokage, Tsunade stood on top of the Hokage Building, wearing the Hokage hat and ancient blue clothes.
Standing behind her were Jiraiya, Mitokado En and Utane Koharu.
There were many ninjas from Konoha Village and members of various families standing under the Hokage Building. With a wave of her hand, the Hokage hat was taken off!
"From today on, I will be the one to govern Konoha. I am the Fifth Hokage!"
There was warm applause from below, and at this moment, a passionate piece of music began to play from the speakers outside the Hokage Building.
The music was very loud, spreading throughout the entire village. It was the popular music "Gradually Attracted by You" coming from the north.
The moving female voice matched the scene very well, and everyone present was attracted by the beautiful figure on the podium.
The enthusiastic gazes of the villagers and the expectant and envious eyes of the ninjas all show that this is a thriving scene, and the picture is frozen here!
When the music died down a little, Jiraiya and the two elders became confused.
"I didn't expect Tsunade to arrange music. It was our negligence!"
In fact, Tsunade was also a little confused and thought that it was arranged by Jiraiya and others.
The next thing is to set off fireworks and cannons, which is also introduced from the north and is usually set off at weddings or special occasions.
I don’t know how a place with only a club and private rooms can have so many things going on, but times have changed and they have to keep up with the times.
When they completed the ceremony and returned to the Hokage broadcasting room, they discovered a sneaky figure in the studio. It turned out to be the troublemaker Konohamaru.
Jiraiya immediately dragged him out when he saw it. Fortunately, he accidentally played a song that fit the occasion. If he had controlled the microphone, he would have ruined the day.
Everyone knew his little thoughts, so they didn't blame him and just left him to Naruto.
As soon as Tsunade came to power, she took action. The first thing she did was to appoint Jiraiya as the captain of the Anbu, and his adopted son Jiraiya was also among them.
The second was to appoint Nara Shikaku as the Hokage advisor, which was considered a promotion for the Nara family.
Finally, considering that the Third Hokage sacrificed himself for Konoha, Asuma was appointed as the captain of the Konoha Guard.
What remains is institutional reform, such as education and medical care.
While these are internal measures, there are also external actions, such as repairing relations with the Sand Village and trying to deepen commercial exchanges with the North.
While the big shots were taking action, Sasuke was also shocked by a piece of information.
On his way back to the Uchiha base, a kunai suddenly flew towards him from behind. He avoided the attack by slightly turning his body.
When he turned around, there was no one behind him. When he put his eyes back on the kunai, he found the note hanging on the kunai. The content on the note made his pupils dilate.
"Want to become stronger? Want power? Come to the Valley of the End alone on the night of the full moon!"
I guess only Orochimaru could say such vulgar and straightforward words. The only thing missing was a sentence like, "If you're my brother, come and chop me up."
Sasuke stepped forward and put the kunai away, then held the note tightly in his hand.
These days he could feel that his physical fitness was getting stronger and the amount of chakra was slowly increasing. The reason should be the injection of medicine given by Orochimaru that day.
Originally, he should have been satisfied with all these, but after seeing Naruto riding Gamakichi to fight against the One-Tail Shukaku, he suddenly felt that his progress was still not enough.
When returning to the village, I heard that Orochimaru had killed Kazekage Rasa, the Third Hokage and Danzo.
He was shocked by the strength displayed by the other party, and at the same time, he paid more attention to what Orochimaru said.
It can be said that he has been waiting for information from Orochimaru these days, feeling both expectant and nervous. He is looking forward to the other party's arrival, but is also afraid that his performance in the Chunin Exam will not impress the other party.
Now that he finally had accurate news, it gave him peace of mind.
"The full moon night, there is still a week left..."
But just as he was looking forward to the day, an uninvited guest came to his door first.
