Chapter 67 Self-reliance leads to abundance
Chapter 67 Self-reliance leads to abundance
Konoha Village, Hokage Building Office.
The top officials of Konoha gathered together.
The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was puffing on a pipe, and the smile on his face clearly showed that he was in a good mood.
Opposite him sat two Hokage advisors—
Koharu and Mitokado.
The two advisors were clearly not in the same good mood as the third generation.
Xiaochun, who was switching dorms, frowned and took the initiative to attack:
"Sarutobi, why did you suddenly postpone the operation against Kumogakure?"
Mito Menyan also looked grave.
"The ninja forces of Konoha have already been deployed. Changing the plan rashly will introduce many variables. Sarutobi, as the Hokage, you can't possibly be unaware of the consequences of retreating in the face of battle, can you?"
Despite his old friend's questioning, the three generations still smiled and gestured for the two to sit down.
"What's the rush? Sit down first, let's talk slowly."
Seeing the third generation's fearless demeanor, the two exchanged a glance, neither knowing what the third generation was up to.
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't keep anyone in suspense, and got straight to the point:
"Tsunade will be returning to Konoha soon."
"This is good news for the village," said Koharu Utatane, still puzzled.
"With Tsunade in Konoha, there's no need to worry about the Uchiha causing any trouble during the war. But Sarutobi, Tsunade's return is not a reason for you to change your decision."
Mitokado echoed:
"It's good that Tsunade is back. But she can only serve as a strategic deterrent; her condition prevents her from participating in the war against Kumogakure."
Hiruzen Sarutobi took down his pipe and said with a smile:
"The Uchiha have fully supported this war of aggression, proving their loyalty in every way. Let's not say anything like 'causing trouble' that is detrimental to unity anymore."
Mitokado frowned immediately:
"The ones who control the Nine-Tails are Uchiha people. Only they have this ability. Sarutobi, you can't possibly be completely unaware of this, can you?"
Xiaochun immediately followed after changing dorm rooms:
"It's just a war; it doesn't prove the Uchiha's loyalty. Sarutobi, we cannot let our guard down!"
Their attitude towards the Uchiha clan was remarkably similar to Danzo's, demonstrating that they had all grasped the essence of Tobirama Senju's teachings:
This clan's ambitions remain undiminished; they will surely become a great threat in the future!
The third generation smiled and shook their heads, not continuing to argue with them.
"I intend to appoint Tsunade as the frontline commander-in-chief of this war."
"Nani!"
"Sarutobi, are you getting senile? Have you forgotten Tsunade's hemophobia?"
Xiaochun, who had changed dorm rooms, shook her head in disappointment:
"Rashly exposing Tsunade's weaknesses to the enemy will only make them despise Konoha even more."
Mitokado Yan wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the sound of the door opening with a "bang".
Danzo, his body wrapped in bandages, made a powerful entrance.
"I support Hiruzen and appoint Tsunade as the commander-in-chief of the front lines."
"Konoha needs a victory to end the war completely!"
With this, the true Konoha F4 has been assembled.
The Fake Konoha F4:
Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Minato Namikaze.
The real Konoha F4:
Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, Koharu, and Mito Gate.
The two advisors were baffled and chose to wait and see.
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.
Danzo and the Third Hokage had been at odds their whole lives, and disagreements were the norm for them. It was extremely rare for them to be so in sync.
Danzo's words startled Hiruzen Sarutobi. He gave Danzo a deep look before saying:
"Now that everyone is here, I can make the announcement."
"Uchiha Kazuhiko has already managed to completely suppress Tsunade's hemophobia for the time being, so your concerns are not a problem."
"By fully supporting the foreign wars, healing and bringing Tsunade back, the Uchiha have proven their loyalty."
Koharu and Homura looked shocked.
Danzo Shimura's gaze changed.
If Tsunade's hemophobia can be completely suppressed, then the assassination operation...
The situation is worse than we imagined!
Uchiha Kazuhiko, very well, I'll remember you.
After the initial shock, the two Hokage advisors became completely excited.
"I found you, Sarutobi! So your top-secret mission has made some progress!"
"If Tsunade returns unharmed at this time, then we will surely win this war against Kumogakure!"
"Sending Uchiha Kazuhiko to treat Tsunade, Sarutobi, you certainly have a good eye for talent!"
"I agree to appoint Tsunade as the commander-in-chief of the front lines!"
……
[Hiruzen Sarutobi's affection level towards you has increased significantly to: Trust (Kazuhiko's loyalty is beyond question!)]
[Chance of drawing a movie-level keyword +1]
Danzo's favorability towards you has dropped significantly.
[Xiaochun's affection for you has increased significantly since she switched dorms]
Mitokado's affection for you has increased significantly.
The sudden appearance of the "deep blue" notification startled Kazuhiko, who was then thrown off balance by the powerful current of the waterfall and fell into the pool.
Tsunade, standing by the waterfall, looked displeased.
"With your strength, you shouldn't have only lasted this long. Being distracted while cultivating is not a good habit."
She is teaching Kazuhiko physical strength and superhuman abilities.
To hone his chakra concentration skills, Kazuhiko was shown resisting the impact of the waterfall.
"That's enough for today, it's time to hit the road."
Tsunade announced that morning training was over and that they were ready to set off.
Kazuhiko swam ashore from the bottom of the pool, lay on his back on the rocks, and gasped for breath.
Although it was just ordinary daily training, the training tasks assigned by Tsunade were not easy.
To master Tsunade's signature superhuman strength, one must first be able to gather a large amount of precisely controlled chakra in specific parts of the body.
Then, this portion of chakra is given some nature transformation, allowing the ninja to unleash super power far exceeding their own.
This is Tsunade's signature taijutsu.
She only demonstrated it once, and Kazuhiko had already mastered it.
With Sharingan that rivals the power of three tomoe, no taijutsu or ninjutsu holds any secret for Kazuhiko.
However, the actual effect of his superhuman strength is vastly different from that of Tsunade.
Tsunade can easily unleash ten or even a hundred times the strength with her superhuman strength.
Kazuhiko can only double the power of his punches for now, and he can't fully unleash the level that a B-rank physical technique like Super Strength should have.
Kazuhiko calmed his breathing, walked to the edge of the pool, and examined his body through the reflection.
His robust physique and the indirect boost from various attributes made his originally barren muscles fuller.
The pectoral muscles bulged high, and the full blood flow made the muscle lines on them incredibly clear.
His eight-pack abs are neatly arranged, and all the subcutaneous fat has disappeared, exposing all the full muscles.
Kazuhiko clenched his fist and raised his arm, looking at his visually stunning and perfect figure with great satisfaction.
Tsunade couldn't help but glance at her, her eyes sparkling with admiration.
After a while, He Yan slowly began to wipe his body.
"【Uchiha Konoha Fluid Technique】Permanently solidified, making my physique even more shapely."
"The changes on the panel are not significant, with only an increase of 0.15 chakra, but my physical strength has indeed increased as well."
"..."
"Judging from the hint just now, the third generation has acknowledged my loyalty."
"It's a pity Danzo wasn't up to par, otherwise I could have gotten a Kage-level ten-pull directly."
Kazuhiko looked at Tsunade on the shore, but she had already shifted her gaze to the distance.
"Only by doing it yourself can you have enough to eat and wear..."
