Naruto: A parody of the entire ninja world, the opening scene infuriates the Kage.

Chapter 147 has truly caused this immortal great suffering!

Early in the morning, Jiraiya arrived at the Hokage Building for work.

Just as Jiraiya finished finishing in his office, the Third Hokage arrived.

The Third Hokage had his hands behind his back, with someone beside him—his secretary.

Jiraiya became Hokage, but he hasn't changed his secretary yet.

Then the Hokage's secretary was seen holding a thick stack of documents.

"We need to review and process all of this before noon; there's even more to deal with this afternoon," the Third Hokage told Jiraiya.

Under Jiraiya's blank gaze, a thick stack of documents was placed on the desk.

After all, Jiraiya was unwilling to relinquish power.

With the third generation having some free time, Yan and Xiaochun also had some free time.

As for Jiraiya, he was somewhat dumbfounded.

It seems like things have gone too far in a fit of pique.

Upon careful recollection, it's clear that the Third Hokage did indeed handle a considerable amount of paperwork every day during his time as Hokage.

Yan and Xiaochun also shared a lot of the burden with the third generation.

Even the Hokage's secretary can handle some less important documents.

Even so, the third generation sometimes has to work overtime or bring work home to do.

Now, Jiraiya has to handle all the work.

These tasks must be handled as soon as possible, otherwise they will pile up and affect the operation of the village.

What frustrated Jiraiya the most was that even though he worked himself to the bone to complete the work, he would only say that F3 had done it. Jiraiya worked so hard, but F3 got all the credit. It was so unfair!
As for Jiraiya, he seized all power.

But F3 has been operating for many years and is already deeply rooted in the market.

In the short term, Jiraiya will not be able to shake F3. Even Danzo, although he has defected, still has his subordinates in the village, just lying dormant.

It's hard to say how many people will secretly sabotage Jiraiya.

At this moment, Jiraiya hated the person who impersonated him.

"This has really caused me, the immortal, great suffering!" Jiraiya lamented inwardly.

As expected, being Hokage is not a comfortable thing.

The most important thing is that he has a weak foundation.

With Tsunade in charge, things are quite different.

After all, Tsunade is the granddaughter of the First Hokage.

Although the name "Thousand Hands Clan" no longer exists in the village, the name "Thousand Hands" remains deeply ingrained in people's minds.

Because the First Hokage was Tsunade's grandfather, Tsunade was able to gain the support of many people in the village based on this relationship.

In addition, the Second Hokage was also from the Senju clan, and was Tsunade's great-uncle.

Mito Uzumaki is Tsunade's grandmother.

Even the daimyo of the Land of Fire has a good relationship with Tsunade.

In addition, Tsunade herself is quite capable, possessing the strength of a standard Kage and being an excellent medical ninja.

Konoha's medical system can be said to have been built by Tsunade.

Other ninja villages all learned from Konoha.

Konoha had its Anbu, and other ninja villages learned from it.

Konoha had a ninja academy, and other ninja villages followed suit.

Once Konoha had a medical system, the other ninja villages followed suit.

In short, whatever good systems or structures Konoha has, other ninja villages will learn from them.

Even when Hashirama got the title of Hokage, the other four great ninja villages followed suit!

In the Land of Fire, Hashirama is the Hokage of Konoha. Therefore, in the Land of Wind, the leader of Sunagakure is the Kazekage.

Looking at the thick stack of documents on the table, Jiraiya already regretted it.

However, it's not a good time to back down now.

So Jiraiya had no choice but to bite the bullet and pick up a document to look at.

The villagers complained that the police department was abusing its power.

It's no secret that the police department has received numerous complaints from villagers.

Jiraiya had already heard about it.

Furthermore, villagers still complain about the police department every day, finding fault with this and that.

Many villagers believe that the police department is utterly useless, and that the village would be better off without it.

As he watched, Jiraiya's brows furrowed.

Although he knew that there were many complaints from the village against the police department, his previous understanding was still too one-sided.

Now, by looking at each document, I understand much more.

There are too many complaints against the police department; ignoring them is definitely not an option.

So, should we put the police department through a tough time?

Or perhaps we should make things difficult for the Uchiha?

The Uchiha clan is now very distant from the village, and a slight misstep could force them to rebel.

Fugaku's kaleidoscope has been exposed.

Because Fugaku possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan, he should think twice before taking action against the Uchiha clan.

Moreover, Jiraiya didn't have much prejudice against the Uchiha clan.

In Jiraiya's view, the Uchiha were also part of the village.

The Uchiha clan is just too prone to extremes.

Furthermore, the Uchiha clan's bloodline limit... is too emotional.

He was stimulated and awakened his Sharingan.

Get more stimulation, and you'll reach the Three-Tomoe or even the Kaleidoscope.

If it weren't for the fact that genjutsu can confuse the five senses, the Uchiha clan would be even more terrifying.

If you were to use genjutsu on all the members of the Uchiha clan, and they were subjected to a huge shock during the genjutsu, wouldn't they all develop Kaleidoscopes?
However, in reality, the stimulation received during genjutsu is useless for activating or upgrading the Sharingan.

With Madara Uchiha as an example, starting from the Second Hokage, there was a lack of trust in the Uchiha clan.

Only Uchiha Kagami is considered special.

It's hard to say that the Second Hokage didn't have ulterior motives in taking Uchiha Kagami as his disciple. Was it to give the Uchiha clan a glimmer of hope? To sow discord within the Uchiha clan? To obtain intelligence about the Uchiha clan?

We shouldn't assume too much malice towards the Second Hokage.

However, Jiraiya himself hesitated to lift the restrictions on the Uchiha clan, not to mention the resistance from the village's higher-ups.

However, the Uchiha clan is too tense; they should be given a break.

The power of the Uchiha clan should not be underestimated; it would be bad to create tensions with the village.

Normally, Jiraiya would also promote some ninjas to help him with his work.

But now it's being said publicly that F3 is helping the Hokage with his work, and the Hokage is still adapting and learning.

Therefore, Jiraiya had to do it himself.

After thinking for a moment, Jiraiya used the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.

However, while shadow clones are useful, they consume too much chakra.

Jiraiya's chakra reserves weren't small, but they couldn't compare to those of Uzumaki and Senju.

Even compared to the Uchiha and Hyuga clans, Jiraiya's chakra was not superior.

Of course, Fugaku and Hiashi were both Jiraiya's juniors, so comparing chakra with a junior is meaningless.

As for using Sage Mode, both the quality and quantity of chakra will be greatly improved, since it is no longer ordinary chakra, but Sage Chakra.

However, Jiraiya's Sage Mode couldn't be maintained for long, and it would put a considerable strain on his body after use.

After careful consideration, Jiraiya didn't dare to create too many shadow clones, so he created three shadow clones to help him share the burden.

With Jiraiya's main body plus his three shadow clones, that is, four Jiraiyas working together, the efficiency was indeed much faster.

More than an hour later, all the documents on the table were finally processed.

'Bang!' 'Bang!' 'Bang!'

Jiraiya's three shadow clones turned into smoke and dissipated.

Jiraiya himself looked exhausted.

After all, once the shadow clone is dispelled, what the shadow clone has learned will be added to the original body, but the fatigue of the shadow clone will also be added to the original body.

If the shadow clone is injured, the pain will also be transferred to the main body. By the time Jiraiya recovered, it was almost noon.

After lunch, the Hokage's secretary delivered another stack of documents, this time even more than the one from the morning.

Jiraiya:......

Being the Hokage is no easy task.

……

In the third generation, Yan and Xiaochun didn't need to work; they just drank tea and chatted.

Jiraiya processed the documents in the morning, and the Third Hokage and the others also briefly looked at some of them; they handled them fairly well.

After all, Jiraiya did have some abilities.

If Jiraiya gets serious, he can be a good Hokage.

"Jiraiya's attitude towards the Uchiha..." Koharu suddenly said to the Third Hokage, but didn't finish her sentence.

But the third generation also understood the unspoken meaning behind his friend's words.

The Uchiha are an inherently evil clan; they must be kept in check.

Danzo's defection has made dealing with the Uchiha clan even more complicated.

Jiraiya seemed to be loosening his restrictions on the Uchiha clan, which immediately alerted En and Koharu.

Jiraiya became Hokage, but he refused to relinquish power, which made F3 dissatisfied.

Of course, it was also clear that Jiraiya was somewhat sulking.

As for Jiraiya's attitude towards the Uchiha, that needs to be clarified.

"The Uchiha problem is very complicated and cannot be explained in a few words. Jiraiya also has his reasons. Let's wait and see!" the Third Hokage said.

In the Third Hokage's view, Jiraiya would relinquish power after a while.

So there's no rush. Let Jiraiya experience the hardships of being a Hokage.

……

Police Department, inside the Minister's office.

Fugaku fell into deep thought.

Today's work was similar to usual.

The divide between the clan and the village remains significant.

However, the village's higher-ups seem to have developed a slight goodwill towards the Uchiha.

After being suppressed for so long, even the smallest act of kindness is precious.

The fifth generation leader relinquished power, allowing F3 to take control, while Yan and Xiaochun followed the lead of the third generation leader.

So, it was the Third Hokage's goodwill towards the Uchiha clan?

Without Danzo, did the Third Hokage's attitude towards the Uchiha change only temporarily?

If the Uchiha clan performs well, will the village's higher-ups accept them?
Thinking about it this way, Fugaku felt a little excited.

Even before he became the head of the Uchiha clan, he was already worried about the relationship between the clan and the village.

When he became the clan chief, the growing rift between the clan and the village put him under immense pressure, making it hard for him to breathe.

On one hand, they hoped that Shisui and Itachi could serve as a bridge between the clan and the village. On the other hand, they wanted to stabilize the clan internally and strive to change the clan and make it better, so that the villagers would let go of their prejudice against the Uchiha and the village leaders would stop targeting the Uchiha.

However, a nine-tailed fox's rampage ruined the promising situation.

The Nine-Tails' rampage caused immense damage to Konoha, and the Uchiha clan struggled to prove their innocence.

Even if the Uchiha clan proved their innocence, the Uchiha clan was the mastermind behind the Nine-Tails' rampage!
A rogue ninja?

Regardless of whether they are rogue ninja or not, they all come from your Uchiha clan.

The masked man didn't die either.

It's hard to guarantee that such an existence won't appear in the Uchiha clan again in the future.

As for forcing the Uchiha to move from the central area of ​​the village to the edge, the village's higher-ups also took a rather tough stance.

Fugaku backed down.

However, his concession did not improve the Uchiha clan's situation; on the contrary, it made their situation even more difficult.

Because the Uchiha clan's territory was moved to the edge of the village and was being monitored by the Anbu, what would the villagers think?
During the Nine-Tails' rampage, everyone knew how big the Sharingan was in the Nine-Tails' eyes.

Furthermore, if there's nothing wrong with your Uchiha clan, why did you move to the edge of the village?

Therefore, when the village leaders showed the Uchiha a little bit of goodwill, Fugaku was so moved he wanted to cry.

It's not easy!
If Jiraiya knew, he would probably be furious. He loosened the restrictions on the Uchiha a little bit, which was a small act of goodwill towards the Uchiha. However, Fugaku thought it was the Third Hokage's goodwill towards the Uchiha and was grateful to the Third Hokage.

At this time, Fugaku had already planned to gather his clansmen at the Nanga Shrine that evening to share the good news with his family.

Let my family be happy too.

……

"Lady Tsunade, we're out of money."

Shizune looked miserable; Tsunade had gambled away her last bit of money.

Does Tsunade have absolutely no idea about her own luck in gambling?

He didn't have much money to begin with, but he lost it all in one go.

Tsunade, however, didn't care at all.

The legendary fat sheep is not a myth.

In fact, Tsunade started learning gambling as early as when the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, was still alive.

Hashirama's luck in gambling was also terrible.

Under Hashirama's tutelage, Tsunade also became addicted to gambling, but she had terrible luck.

However, the Senju clan is large and powerful, so Tsunade is only betting a small amount and is not afraid of losing.

But with the death of her younger brother and her lover, Tsunade left Konoha, a place of sorrow, and traveled around the ninja world, gambling ever higher and higher.

The money Tsunade lost is probably more than the Daimyo's allocation to Konoha over several years!
She went from being a rich woman to being penniless, and then became heavily in debt.

Shizune, who followed Tsunade, often went hungry and had to evade debt collectors.

Sometimes Tsunade even mortgaged Shizune.

The 'Death Necklace', Shizune, there's nothing Tsunade can't mortgage; she can mortgage even herself.

Because of Tsunade's strength and her experience as a seasoned veteran, she has never suffered any major losses.

It's fair to say that Tsunade is quite dashing.

But Shizune isn't as dashing as Tsunade.

"By the way, Lady Tsunade, I heard that Jiraiya has become the Fifth Hokage." Shizune told Tsunade the news she had heard not long ago.

Upon hearing what Shizune said, Tsunade was also surprised.

Did Jiraiya become the Fifth Hokage?

Tsunade understands Jiraiya.

Jiraiya didn't want to be Hokage anymore; instead, he wanted her to go back to being Hokage.

So, how did Jiraiya suddenly become Hokage?

For the village?

Has Konoha reached the point where Jiraiya has no choice but to become Hokage?

"What's the old man up to?" Tsunade frowned and muttered to herself.

After some consideration, Tsunade decided to take Shizune back to Konoha.

There's definitely more to Jiraiya becoming Hokage than meets the eye.

Something big might have happened in Konoha, and she would have to go back.

Although Tsunade said she didn't care about Konoha, she still cared about it a lot.

Besides, Jiraiya was, after all, her friend.

Even if nothing happens in Konoha, she will still go and offer her blessings for Jiraiya becoming Hokage, but she will not give him the 'Death Necklace'.

Her younger brother wanted to become Hokage, so she gave him the necklace, and then he died.

Her lover dreamed of becoming Hokage, so she gave him the necklace, but he died as a result.

This necklace is an ominous sign; I only acknowledge her.

Even though Jiraiya is already the Hokage, she was genuinely worried that he might die if she gave him this necklace.

"If Jiraiya becomes Hokage, it will be a good thing for Konoha." Tsunade thought to herself. She knew Jiraiya's abilities very well, and Jiraiya was actually quite reliable. With Jiraiya as Hokage, Konoha would get better and better, so she had nothing to worry about.
