Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

Chapter 127 The "Wallflower"

Kakashi and Yamato left together.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door again.

Asuma Sarutobi, looking travel-worn, pushed open the door and walked in. He paused for a moment when he saw the little boy, Shirokumo Aoba, but didn't ask any questions.

He bowed to Tsunade.

"Tsunade... Lady Hokage!"

"Why don't you go and rest for a bit after you just got back?"

Sarutobi Asuma shook his head. "I heard that the Hokage had something important to discuss with me, so I came directly here."

Tsunade didn't mince words and said directly, "Could you please summon Enma? It has the information we need."

"Yes."

Sarutobi Asuma did not hesitate and walked to the spacious area in the center of the office.

"Spirit Spell!"

After a plume of smoke rose, the figure of the ape demon appeared before them.

"Ape Demon, I want to know about the old man's battle that day."

Tsunade looked serious and took out paper and pen from the table, placing them in front of Shirakumo Aoba, indicating that he should take notes.

The ape demon nodded and recounted the whole story.

"That day..."

"..."

Tsunade listened attentively, but as she listened, her feelings became complicated.

Is Wood Release now commonplace?

They popped up one after another.

Moreover, even the Uchiha clan has awakened, yet she, a legitimate member of the Senju clan and the granddaughter of the First Hokage, shows absolutely no signs of awakening.

This is unreasonable!

After recording all the information about Obito Uchiha and Black Zetsu, Enma disappeared.

Tsunade composed herself and looked at Sarutobi Asuma, who was still in a daze.

"Asuma, do you want to become a Hokage's bodyguard?"

This can be considered as her way of taking care of the old man.

Sarutobi Asuma was taken aback upon hearing this.

He quickly came to his senses and shook his head. "The mission of protecting the ninja is not yet complete. I will leave Konoha after the funeral."

Although he became a Guardian Ninja out of spite of the old man, and the old man is now gone, he should at least see it through to the end.

"Alright, I won't force you then."

Tsunade nodded. "If you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me."

"Thank you, Lord Hokage!"

Sarutobi Asuma thanked him and then said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go home and check on Konohamaru."

"Ah."

Tsunade nodded slightly.

After Sarutobi Asuma left.

She also picked up the information recorded by Shirokumo Aoba and started reading it.

"Although I've lost my hands and can't use ninjutsu, this eye technique is still quite troublesome."

"Make sure each ninja clan in the village has a copy of this information, and all members of the Anbu and ninjas on missions outside must also have a copy."

"Mm." Baiyun Qingye nodded.

Now, apart from his identity, Obito Uchiha has been completely stripped bare.

Tsunade put down the papers. "What have you thought about regarding the secretary and Hokage guards?"

Bai Yunqingye picked up another piece of paper and handed it over, saying, "This is my idea; it's up to you, teacher, to decide."

Tsunade took them. "Shikaku, Shizune, Mikoto?"

After a brief moment of thought, he nodded. "That works too."

She then looked at the list of Hokage's guards, "Kakashi, Uzuki Yugao, Yuhi Kurenai..."

Tsunade narrowed her eyes, looking at Shirakumo Aoba, "Are you trying to abuse your power for personal gain?"

"How is that possible!"

Shirokumo Aoba said with a serious expression, "I won't talk about Kakashi. Yugao-neechan's strength has long reached the level of Jonin, and Yuhi Kurenai's genjutsu level is also at the Jonin level, so I think they are very suitable."

Baiyun Qingye felt that this was already much stronger than the Hokage's guards in Tsunade's original work.

People like Genma Shiranui, Iwashi Tatsubo, and Raido Namiashi, who went from being Minato Namikaze's bodyguards to Tsunade's bodyguards.

Over the years, the highest level of strength achieved has only reached the level of Special Jonin, and Iwashi is still only a Chunin.

Can they be the Hokage's bodyguards? No, they don't have the ability, you know?

It's more like the Hokage is protecting them.

"Is that so?" Tsunade stroked her chin.

"So, teacher, do you want Uncle Kai to be your Hokage's bodyguard?" Shirakumo Aoba asked back.

"Uh……"

Tsunade's mind immediately conjured up the image of Might Guy's overly enthusiastic personality, and her lips twitched.

"Then forget it, let's do it your way, and add Yamato, that'll be enough for four people."

Just as the two were discussing the list, another knocking sound rang out.

It wasn't someone knocking on the door, but someone knocking on the window.

Tsunade and Shirakumo Aoba both looked towards the side window.

A middle-aged man with white hair, wearing a headband with the character "oil" on it, appeared at the window.

"Jiraiya?"

Tsunade was taken aback. "What are you doing outside the window?"

Jiraiya jumped in with a grin, "This is more convenient."

After observing Tsunade for a while, he suddenly became somewhat sentimental, "I never expected you to become Hokage."

He remembered Tsunade saying when she left Konoha, "Only a fool would want to become Hokage."

The boomerang hit him.

"Then how about you take the role?" Tsunade rolled her eyes at Jiraiya.

"Haha, heroes don't stay in one place for too long."

Jiraiya chuckled nonchalantly, "However, I have some rather important information here..."

Jiraiya suddenly stopped speaking, noticing Shirokumo Aoba beside him, his eyes filled with confusion.

Tsunade noticed Jiraiya's gaze and said, "This is my disciple whom I took in Konoha, Shirakumo Aoba."

"Uncle Jiraiya".

As soon as Tsunade finished speaking, Shirokumo Aoba nodded in greeting.

"You actually take on apprentices?"

Jiraiya looked Shirokumo Aoba up and down, then took out a yellow book from his pocket and handed it to Shirokumo Aoba with an apologetic expression.

"I didn't know beforehand and didn't have time to prepare, so I'll use this latest edition and a copy of 'Icha Icha Paradise' personally signed by the immortal as a greeting gift."

"You bastard!" Tsunade's forehead veins bulged, and she threw a punch.

After a loud "boom".

Jiraiya was thus embedded in the wall.

However, the book was left on the table.

Shirokumo Aoba originally intended to take it secretly, but Tsunade took it beforehand.

"This book is not suitable for your age. I'll put it away for you."

"..."

Baiyun Qingye remained silent. He just felt that this book must be quite valuable, and that some white-haired guy might be willing to spend a lot of money to buy it.

"Hi~"

Jiraiya pulled himself out of the wall. "Tsunade, your temper hasn't changed at all."

Tsunade glared coldly at this guy who wanted to corrupt her disciple, "Quickly, tell me the information!"

Jiraiya's expression became much more serious. "On my way back, I encountered a ninja squad that wanted to infiltrate Konoha."

"Which village is it?" Tsunade's expression also turned serious; she had expected this.

"They're Grass Ninja, but supposedly they were sent by Iwagakure and Sunagakure to test Konoha. I just threatened them a little, and they confessed everything..."

Jiraiya's expression was somewhat strange.

Grass Ninja Village?

Shirokumo Aoba's heart skipped a beat. Wasn't this the ninja village where Karin and her daughter lived?

"These fence-sitters..."

Tsunade's expression turned dangerous.

From their inception, Konoha and Kusagakure have been close allies and neighbors separated only by a narrow strip of water.

Although the enemy sided with Iwagakure during the Third Shinobi World War, they later formed an alliance again due to Hiruzen Sarutobi's compromise.

But this time, they've once again silently kicked someone when they were down, trying to become a traitor.

If Hiruzen Sarutobi were still the Hokage, then the situation would probably just pass by.

But the current Hokage is Tsunade.

If someone dares to attack Konoha, then he is no longer an ally; we must strike hard!
