Escape From Konoha

There were several knocks on the door.

"Please come in."

"excuse me."

With a faint voice, the person outside the door pushed the door and entered.

Tsunade also temporarily put down the signature pen in his hand, lightly pressed the somewhat stiff and sore neck with the palm of his hand, and then turned his eyes to the person who knocked on the door.

She has long cherry blossom-colored hair, a slightly wider forehead than ordinary girls, and fair skin. Overall, she is a pretty cute girl.

Haruno Sakura.

Tsunade immediately recognized the identity of the other party.

And it was only then that she remembered that it seemed that she had promised Lu Jiu before that at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, she set aside three minutes to give Haruno Sakura a chance to talk to herself.

"The Age of Rebirth"

In other words, is it already five o'clock in the afternoon?

Tsunade scratched his head helplessly, and another afternoon passed without knowing it.

However, the number of files to be processed is still not small.

"You are Haruno Sakura, right?"

Tsunade spoke first in a positive tone.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Sakura nodded, the expression on her face seemed to be a bit hesitant.

"Do you have anything to do with me? Although I really want to find a chance to have a serious talk with you, but now, time may not allow it. So, if you have something to say, just say it directly. If not If it is particularly embarrassing, I will consider it.”

Seeing Sakura's expression, Tsunade knew that the other party should ask for something from him, but because of his identity, it was a little hard to tell.

Therefore, after some hint of encouragement, Tsunade straightened his sitting posture and looked straight at Sakura.

"Yes, yes, that, I have a request, I hope Lord Hokage will agree."

Sakura stammered, her expression full of nervousness.

"Don't panic, I won't eat you again, just say whatever you want."

"Yes."

Sakura calmed down, and the look in her eyes slowly returned to firmness.

Then, under Tsunade's surprised gaze, she bent her waist.

"I know this is rude, but I hope Lord Hokage can guide me in my practice!"

This request was beyond Tsunade's expectations, and the palm on the table trembled slightly.

Then, Tsunade seemed to have reacquainted with the girl in front of him, and narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.

"I remember writing such a comment on your personal file... Although you are smart, you lack perseverance..."

Sakura, who heard Tsunade's words, trembled.

"Sorry, it's me..."

"No, I mean, cultivation is a very painful thing. And I hate people who give up halfway. Can you persevere?"

Tsunade interrupted Sakura's speech and looked at Sakura with a scrutiny attitude.

"Yes, I can do it!"

When the twists and turns turned, Xiao Ying raised her head sullenly, revealing the resolute look in her eyes, without any hesitation.

"But I'm only guiding you in your cultivation. Whether you can learn it depends on your ability... Tomorrow I will have someone send you a cultivation instruction manual. For the next six months, you must strictly follow the above requirements. Don't give up. After the new year, I will spare three hours a week to train you in person."

This is actually kind of a whim.

After all, she had already given up the idea of ​​continuing to teach students, and she didn't have much time to waste on it.

However, seeing Sakura's serious attitude, she decided to give her a chance.

As for the other party's ability to seize such an opportunity, it depends on how strong the other party's perseverance is.

...

"I didn't expect you to think about accepting apprentices now."

After Sakura left, a voice sounded from the window of the office.

Jiraiya was squatting on the window sill, apparently he heard all the conversations between Tsunade and Sakura just now.

"It's still unpredictable, and I don't think that little girl can hold on. Most likely, she will complain and give up halfway."

Tsunade leaned back against the seat, as if seeing some kind of ending.

Although reluctant to admit it, it is difficult for women to surpass men from innate. Under the same basic conditions, the strength of female ninjas is generally lower than that of male ninjas.

For this reason, female ninjas must work harder than men if they want to surpass male ninjas.

In the past, she has also walked all the way. In practice, she did not regard herself as a woman at all, but regarded herself as an animal. She was constantly tortured and tempered, and her head was suspended from the beam and the cones were pierced. This is why she has achieved today's achievements. .

"It's hard to say. These young people are very motivated, and when they have a goal, it's probably more difficult for them to accept it by giving up halfway."

Jiraiya jumped down from the window and talked eloquently.

"Hatake Kakashi... and Uchiha Zuosuke?"

Tsunade knew what Jiraiya was also referring to.

With the departure of these two people, the seventh class of this session has already existed in name only.

"It's already a traitor, are you still not ready to give up? The wanted order issued is not so simple to eliminate. Even if you come back one day, you will only be in prison for the rest of your life."

"That kid Naruto has my temperament. They are all the same idiots, and things that idiots think are generally difficult to change."

Zilai also boasted.

"Is this something to be proud of? Besides, it's not a question of being stupid or not at all, it's childish."

Tsunade was a little speechless.

"No, this is called not forgetting the original intention. However, I have come out of the loss of Orochimaru's betrayal, but Naruto seems to still care about it..."

Jiraiya said here, his face was a little dark.

After all, they are teachers and companions who have been born and died together. It is very cruel for Naruto to forget this relationship.

However, in the real ninja world, the causal relationship is so magical and magical.

Only time can heal this wound.

"Let's not talk about this for now, that kid went to Miaomu Mountain, did he learn immortal art?"

Tsunade asked the most crucial question.

"How can it be so fast, the boss of Shensuo said that he still needs basic training, and let me bring him back and start teaching from the basics. When the basics are laid, I will go to Miaomu Mountain to learn immortal arts."

Said reluctantly.

"What, I've been looking forward to it for a long time. It turned out to be an unreliable guy, completely different from Minato."

"This is something that can't be helped, just wait a little longer."

"I'm fine...but, do you want to be the guide for Jōnin?"

Tsunade suddenly remembered something.

"Guide Joinin?"

Zilai also blinked in confusion.

"The seventh class is short of two people, one of the team members and one captain each... It just so happens that you need to teach Naruto, how about assigning you to the seventh class to be your guide?"

Tsunade considers this matter.

"No, don't come to me for such troublesome things. There are so many jounin in the village, and there are many powerful ones. You can find a lot of them by just looking for them."

Jiraiya also vetoed and asked Tsunade to find someone else.

"That's what I said, but if you want to find a 'nanny' for Zhuli, it is not so easy to find. You need special skills, such as the ability to write round eyes."

"This thing is only owned by Danzo in the village now. However, there are no Sharinja ninjas in Anbu, but I don't remember there is a Joinin who can use Mudun?"

Suddenly he thought of something.

"In this way, it seems like... if there is no writing wheel eye, Mu Dun is also an option."

After Jiraiya reminded him like this, Tsunade also thought that in Anbu, there was a ninja using a wooden dungeon.

Moreover, in terms of function, Mu Dun seems to be more suitable for suppressing the tailed beast than the writing wheel eye.

"In this way, the matter of guiding Junin will be solved. However, you have to look for the third team member."

"Let's talk about it then, there is no need to dispatch Genin to perform the mission."

Tsunade nodded. She now has a general idea for the arrangement of the seventh class, but it will take some time to prepare for the specific implementation.

◎

Tsunade walked out of the Hokage Building when he got off work at eight o'clock in the evening, and fine snow began to fall in the night sky outside.

As the New Year is getting closer and closer, the popularity of Konoha Village that has been lost due to the twists and turns of the past few days has slowly recovered.

He stopped in front of an izakaya on the commercial street. Tsunade didn't bring anyone there. He stopped in front of the izakaya for a few seconds, then walked inside, found his pre-ordered private room, and walked in.

There was no one in the private room, and Tsunade didn't care, just let the waiter prepare drinks and meals, and sat there waiting quietly.

About five minutes later, the door of the private room was pushed open, and Masumi Asami, still wearing white overalls, walked in.

"Lord Hokage, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

"Where, I just arrived. But now there are only the two of us here, so you don't need to be so restrained."

Tsunade motioned for him to sit down.

"Then forgive me, Tsunade-sensei."

Asami Masumi did not reject Tsunade's kindness, and walked to the opposite side of Tsunade to sit down.

"Speaking of which, this is the first time we have been alone, right? We only met once at the graduation party before."

Tsunade remembered something and smiled at Masumi Asami.

"Yes, after all, at that time, we each had important jobs, and we couldn't leave without permission. However, I will always remember Mr. Tsunade's kindness in education."

This is not hypocrisy. Without Tsunade's education, she would have to take many detours in the field of medical ninjutsu.

It was only after she had grown to this state that she understood how lucky an elite medical ninja like Tsunade meant to them when they were young and fashionable.

It can be said that as long as the talent is qualified and you study hard in the Tsunade class, your achievements in the medical ninja will not be too low.

The medical ninjas who were at the same time as her are basically middle-level cadres in the medical sector.

One or two contemporaries, like her, were promoted to the top of the medical department.

Today, in Konoha's medical department, most of the management are either students of Tsunade, former colleagues of Tsunade, or her followers... Only a very small number of people are not too involved with Tsunade.

Tsunade's influence in Konoha's medical department can probably be described by his disciples and former officials all over the world.

Although the person is gone, the authority she represents still affects many things in the medical department at all times.

"Actually it's nothing, it's all the result of your own efforts. In your class, there are very few people who can reach your level. As a teacher, the happiest thing is to be accepted by your students. beyond."

Tsunade smiled.

I appreciate Masumi Asami even more.

"In this respect, I'm still far behind Tsunade-sensei."

Asami Masumi also smiled slightly.

In the entire ninja world, there is no medical ninja who dares to guarantee that his medical ninjutsu can surpass Tsunade.

Even she is far from the realm where Tsunade is, and she lacks a lot of standards.

Only the 'classmate' in the land of ghosts might be able to do it.

Soon, the waiter of the izakaya brought drinks and food over.

Looking at the sumptuous food and the mellow drinks, Tsunade smiled and said, "Okay, you are welcome to enjoy it. I invited this meal. Tonight, we are just teachers and students, not superiors and subordinates."

Masumi Asami nodded, poured herself a glass of wine, and drank it slowly.

After drinking a glass of wine, the fair skin was instantly dyed with a layer of attractive pink, giving people a rather cute temperament, like a shy girl.

"Masumi, if you're not used to drinking, you don't have to force yourself."

Tsunade could see that Masumi Asami is the type of person who is not good at drinking, and his usual routine is very regular. His most hobbies are walking and reading medical books. His amateur interests are really pitiful.

"Yes... I'm sorry, no matter how many times you drink alcohol, you will still feel uncomfortable. Tsunade-sensei will make you laugh."

After speaking, Masumi Asami coughed twice, and smiled helplessly at Tsunade.

"There's no such thing. Everyone has their own good and bad things... But you look cute after drinking."

For some unknown reason, Masumi Asami felt that the smile on Tsunade's face now resembled that of another Sannin, Jiraiya, full of obscenity.

She was obviously an old maid in her fifties. She groaned inwardly.

However, she did not dare to say such words, otherwise her end would be very miserable.

She didn't dare to master Tsunade's tyrannical power like a tyrannosaurus.

"No such thing, cute or something... Tsunade-sensei, I'm already a woman in my thirties."

He sighed at Tsunade, and Masumi Asami deliberately increased his tone on the word age.

"No, Masumi, you're really cute. But I heard you're still single, isn't there anyone chasing you?"

Tsunade was curious about this and brought up this topic intentionally or unintentionally.

"Pursuit... There have been some people, but they were rejected by me."

Masumi Asami replied calmly.

"Eh? Why refuse? Are those suitors who don't meet your mate selection criteria?"

"No, from the perspective of career, appearance, and ability, those men are excellent."

"If that's the case, then why refuse?"

Tsunade's face was full of weirdness.

For Tsunade's repeated ridicule, Masumi Asami also knew that Tsunade wanted to dig out more information about her.

And that information has completely disappeared from Konoha's file records under the direction of the three generations of Hokage.

It is also the most important 'emotional history' of her past.

No records are given in her file, so in her personal file, the resumes in many places are extraordinarily strange, intermittent and unable to undertake up and down.

"It's not too hard to tell... I actually had a boyfriend in the past, and then the relationship warmed up to the point where I was about to get engaged."

Speaking of this, Masumi Asami's tone softened, and there was some kind of special feeling in it.

"And then what? Are you married?"

Tsunade question.

Since it has come to the point of talking about marriage, why did it end without a hitch?

Moreover, why is her "partner" not recorded in Konoha's archives.

Names, past, future, all gone.

This strange scene made Tsunade feel that something must have happened in Konoha that she didn't know about during that period.

"No, he died."

Asami Masumi calmed down, with a touch of sadness.

"Feel sorry."

Tsunade sighed.

Died? Things are getting weirder and weirder.

If it is killed in the line of duty, it is impossible not to leave a message.

For what reason did her teacher, the three generations of Hokage Sarutobi Hiizan, remove the record of Masumi Asami's 'partner'?

There is absolutely no way it was a simple death in the line of duty.

"It doesn't matter, he's just not very lucky. After all, Tsunade-sensei should also know that in our era, such things often happened. I'm a medical ninja, so it's not a special situation, and I won't participate in those that are too dangerous. mission..."

Hearing Asami Masumi said that, Tsunade fell silent, and the drinking action also stopped.

For some unknown reason, Tsunade felt that this dinner was tasteless.

Yes, in that era of international turmoil, no one can guarantee that they will live to the end.

Secret mission? Tsunade knew that, unlike Sakumo who committed suicide, Masumi Asami's 'partner' was probably carrying out some important secret mission that could never be made public.

Only these confidential tasks are eligible to be cancelled by high-level officials.

Whether this classified mission is finally completed or not, there will not be many traces left.

Even the family members of the victims will not be disclosed.

Asami Masumi, as a ninja, understands this.

"Let you worry about it for so many years, that man must be very good, Masumi."

Tsunade said so.

"Yes, he is very good. He is the best man I think is the best."

Masumi Asami's tone was full of firmness, unquestionable firmness.

Hearing this, Tsunade felt bitterness in her heart for some unknown reason, and she felt the same sympathy with Masumi Asami.

Both fell into a mad love at a young age, and then the other half died in the mission, and they are single to this day.

For them, the love in their hearts died when the other half died, and they couldn't hold another man in their hearts.

break...

Tsunade recited the name silently in his heart.

◎

After walking out of the izakaya, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

After watching Masumi Asami leave, Tsunade walked to a nearby dark alley. In the shadows, a figure was waiting there for a long time.

"Lord Hokage."

The one who came out of the shadows was Shirohisa.

Tsunade gave a brief answer to the content of the conversation he had just had with Masumi Asami.

Lu Jiu listened quietly and didn't interrupt Tsunade's speech. He didn't say until Tsunade finished speaking, "In this way, the results of my investigation are similar."

"Oh? Did you find it there too?"

Tsunade asked.

"Well, I asked someone to find out about a retired squad leader from Anbu in the past. At that time, he was serving under the three generations of adults, and he was occasionally ordered by the upper management to deal with a piece of information that was not recorded in Konoha. Personal files in the system."

"That file is..."

Tsunade's mind moved.

"No accident, it should be Director Asami's boyfriend when she was a teenager. The man's name is Fujisaki Takeshi, who used to be Director Asami's neighbor and is five years older than Director Asami. It is said that when Director Asami was young, because of his family The reason is that she has been treated unfairly by some people, so her character has become autistic and dark... And that Fujisaki Takeshi was the one who helped her get out of that 'dark' childhood. Then Director Asami graduated from the ninja school a few years later, Falling in love with him..."

"And then that Fujisaki Takeshi died in the mission?"

Tsunade was thoughtful.

She suddenly remembered that Masumi Asami was not very good among the students she taught at the beginning, and her character was taciturn, her clothes were very sloppy, and her grades were only in the middle and low... I felt like I came in to mess around.

But then her grades skyrocketed, and she began to pay attention to her appearance, and she also began to ask her some professional questions... Until the sixth grade, she graduated with honors as a second-place student.

It seems that the person who inspired Masumi Asami to move forward and work hard for life is the Konoha ninja named "Fujisaki Takeshi".

Tsunade is sincerely grateful to the Konoha ninja named Takeshi Fujisaki. If it weren't for his inspiration, Konoha would probably lose an excellent medical ninja.

"Yes, the sub-commander of the specific task is not clear, but according to the few records at the time, he knows that the other party is carrying out a very important task, the risk is extremely high, and it is directly under the jurisdiction of the three generations of adults..."

This also means that, apart from the dead three generations of Hokage, I am afraid no one knows what kind of mission the Konoha ninja named Takeshi Fujisaki performed at that time and sacrificed heroically.

"What time was it?"

"After the Second Ninja World War."

"Is it really impossible to investigate?"

Tsunade was a little reluctant.

Perhaps it was her compassion, she hoped to give Masumi Asami a perfect explanation.

Moreover, such a hero cannot be wiped out of all records because of the "secret mission".

"I'm afraid it's difficult. The brief information of Takeshi Fujisaki can be extracted from the evidence of some people in the village. But about the tasks he performed at that time..."

Kakashi's expression was very troubled.

Unless it is to ask the three generations of Hokage himself, even Masumi Asami would not know the answer to this part. The official answer given to her at that time was only because of a secret mission and died heroically in battle.

"Then try your best to investigate. I don't believe that there is no clue."

Tsunade's attitude was exceptionally persistent.

"Yes."

Lu Jiu knew that the results of the investigation might not be too ideal. But when Tsunade ordered it, he could only try his best to arrange for someone to investigate.

◎

After coming out of the izakaya, Masumi Asami didn't wander the streets, and returned along the way home.

After a simple exchange with Tsunade, she knew that she was being targeted.

However, this kind of staring is not a bad thing in a sense.

But this is actually troublesome enough. She feels that her current height is just right. Get too close to the core and it becomes a little inconvenient to deal with things. She doesn't have the ability to be calm like Kakashi, and she dares to mess around under Hokage's eyelids.

While gaining power, gaining a certain degree of freedom is the best height for her.

Thinking like this, Masumi Asami walked to the door of her house, picked up the key to open the door, and turned on the light at the entrance.

Then he took off his shoes, put on indoor slippers, and threw the white coat on his body to the hanger next to him~www.readwn.com~ and hung it lightly on the hanger.

Generally speaking, as a woman living alone, the house in demand does not need to be too big. But in order to use her spare time to conduct simple experimental research even at home, the house she lives in is much larger than the usual four-room.

Except for the bedroom, kitchen, study, and living room, the rest of the space is filled with experimental tools and materials.

Maybe it was because she was too tired to communicate with Tsunade, Masumi Asami walked to the bedroom, took off her ninja suit, fell on the bed tiredly, and threw the glasses hanging on her chest to the edge of the bed, almost falling to the ground. .

She stared at the ceiling in a daze for about ten minutes. She slowly took out a delicate glass bottle, which was only about half the length of a finger.

Like a baby, he carefully covered it with his hands, quietly placed it on his heart, and his body curled up on the bed.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his face was full of sweetness, like a little girl who didn't grow up.

"You can't wait anymore, sorry for making you wait so long, it's clear that you will have a child after your mission is over. But please rest assured, my mission will end soon. Wait until it's safe to do so. local, I will let our child be born smoothly, Wu Jun..."
