After my triumphs and defeats, I created multiple aliases across countless worlds.

If what Bai Ye said is true.

She would do it herself when she got back, but if not, she would absolutely not help Bai Ye.

"Okay, let's go back then."

Give me the IOU and that necklace!

Tsunade stretched out her hand towards Byakuya, still resentful that her IOU and necklace were in Byakuya's possession.

"You'll have to pay me back the IOU when you have the money. Also, this necklace is a keepsake for me. Besides, I'd like to see if this necklace will bring bad luck to anyone!"

The necklace's current record is that, apart from Tsunade, everyone else who received it except for the Crown Prince has died.

Therefore, this directly led Tsunade to believe that whoever obtained the necklace would definitely die.

"You bastard, do you even know what this necklace means?!"

At this point, Tsunade actually became somewhat calm.

"know."

"You knew that, yet you still took it?"

Tsunade said irritably that she hadn't even decided whether to give it to him or not, and then Byakuya snatched it away.

"You can take it back after you defeat me!"

"..."

Tsunade gave Byakuya a deep look, but said nothing more.

She will take it back; it's clear from the current situation that Bai Ye isn't planning to hand it over to her.

Moreover, she needed to hurry back to see if it was really as Bai Ye had said.

After resolving some issues in Tanbata Street.

Tsunade packed her things, and the three of them quickly headed back to Konoha.

Konoha.

The Third Hokage also received advance notice after learning that Tsunade would be returning with him.

He was somewhat surprised.

I never expected that Tsunade would actually come back this time.

For Konoha... has it really gotten better?!

For a moment, he suddenly felt a little melancholy.

Chapter 80 - Old Deng dropped a gold coin! I want the Sealing Technique!

"It's been a long time, Tsunade."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed with emotion. He had tried to persuade Tsunade to return to Konoha, but all his efforts had failed.

Unexpectedly, I was invited back by the Uchiha clan this time.

"Heh, this old man never imagined that Konoha would be in this state after all these years of your mischief!"

Before returning, Tsunade had also learned about the situation in Konoha.

She was actually very angry about Hiruzen Sarutobi's inaction.

So many things happened because of Hiruzen Sarutobi's inaction.

As a result, things are still the same now, it feels like they haven't learned their lesson at all.

"I'm old now. The position of Hokage should have been given to Minato."

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a drag of his cigarette, a hint of guilt flashing in his eyes.

Konoha has indeed made a mess of itself over the years.

He couldn't bring himself to do it; he always felt guilty towards Danzo.

He knew that his old friend had always cared about the position of Hokage, and at the same time, he was thinking that if he had been a little faster back then, he might have been the Hokage.

Originally, the Third Hokage had planned to step down after the Third Shinobi World War.

"Tsunade, upon your return this time, become the Hokage in my place, the Fifth Hokage of Konoha!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his head and looked solemnly at Tsunade. Since she was willing to come back, it meant that Tsunade was willing to become Hokage.

Just as Bai Ye said, during the time Bai Wa Ye was away.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was constantly pondering whether he could stop the Uchiha clan.

It seems... there's simply no way out....

The Uchiha clan also seemed to be showing signs of going berserk, and he had been thinking that Shisui should mediate between them.

But the more they tried to reconcile, the more they discovered that the contradictions between the two sides were growing.

If things really come to this, a civil war might actually break out.

So that's when Bai Ye came back and proposed this plan.

Hiruzen Sarutobi agreed without even thinking.

"I'll wait a bit longer. I'm going back to check on things first."

Tsunade shook her head and did not immediately agree. She still had some things to sort out after returning this time.

"This..." The Third Hokage opened his mouth, but finally nodded helplessly in agreement: "Alright..."

Now that Tsunade has returned, there's no need for me to be in such a hurry. Perhaps if Tsunade walks around Konoha and thinks about her life there, she might finally understand.

"By the way, Hokage-sama, what about my mission reward?"

This is a secret mission; the reward is not specified.

However, Bai Ye already had a plan in mind.

"?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi turned his head and looked at Byakuya with an incredulous expression.

no! ?

You want a reward from me?

There's no reward for this task!

Generally speaking, if there's no reward listed, then no reward will be given. After all, what kind of mission is it to get a reward for going to find Tsunade?

Class D?

After all, there was no danger.

However, Tsunade's importance seems to warrant an S-rank.

Therefore, there's no way to give that; all we can do is offer some travel expenses and a small fee to get someone to make the trip.

The third generation of the group that went on the mission were all arranged in this way.

"I want sealing techniques, the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan!"

That old cunning bastard, the Third Generation, must have some kind of sealing technique from the Uzumaki clan.

Or rather, it will definitely be in the Book of Seals.

The Fourth Hokage was Minato Namikaze, and Kushina, being a member of the Uzumaki clan, taught Minato many sealing techniques, such as the Reaper Death Seal.

Didn't the next three generations also learn from the Book of Seals?

It's certain that this task wasn't in the Book of Seals before, and Mito Uzumaki wouldn't have written these secret techniques in it, even if her husband was Hashirama Senju.

The Scroll of Seals was mostly created by Tobirama, and most of the techniques were secret arts created by him.

Moreover... the Uzumaki clan wasn't wiped out back then, so how could Mito Uzumaki have written the Uzumaki clan's secret techniques in the Book of Seals?

By the time of Kushina, the Uzumaki clan had already been wiped out, so there wasn't much research to be done.

On one hand, her husband was a fourth-generation descendant, and on the other hand, the Uzumaki clan was wiped out, so the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques were most likely recorded in the Book of Sealing at that time.

"No?! I didn't agree!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was completely baffled by Byakuya.

I almost subconsciously thought I had agreed to this.

But...

I never agreed!

What are you thinking?

Hiruzen Sarutobi was eager to see what Byakuya was thinking.

"This is my reward. Since you came to me, you have to pay more. So many people failed before me, but I succeeded. Now Konoha is at least half at peace. It's not unreasonable for me to take a reward, is it? Have I asked you for a single extra penny from beginning to end?"

No?
