Naruto, your uncle is going to be Hokage!

Isn't this nonsense?

With her hemophobia not yet cured, how much of a role could Tsunade play even if she went to the battlefield?

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was feeling deeply resentful, the door to the Hokage's office was suddenly pushed open.

The scout ninja who entered placed a scroll on his table.

"Lord Hokage, this is the latest battle situation from the front lines. Please take a look."

"Ah."

After nodding, Hiruzen Sarutobi picked up the scroll, glanced at it, and seemed to age even more, his expression becoming increasingly complicated.

Won.

After Namikaze Mirai arrived on the battlefield, the Konoha troops seemed to have been given a cheat code, winning one victory after another.

This time, Kumogakure even dispatched two Jinchūriki.

However, they were still no match for Namikaze Mirai. Their Tailed Beast Balls were easily deflected, and the morale of the Cloud Ninja was shaken, forcing them to retreat.

Such a record is probably not as dazzling as Minato's back then.

In the past few days, the villagers of Konoha have heard news of the battlefield from somewhere, and discussions praising Namikaze's future have sprung up everywhere in the village.

He has been secretly trying to stop this trend.

With little success.

All these events made Hiruzen Sarutobi's face grow even paler.

This scene was witnessed by the ninja who was delivering the intelligence, and he muttered to himself.

"Konoha won, shouldn't the Hokage be happy?"

Why are you looking like that?

……

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was looking worried in the Hokage's office, in the Raikage's office of Kumogakure, the Fourth Raikage, A, was also looking at the intelligence coming from the front lines with a grim expression!

"Absurd! How ridiculous!"

"I've already sent Yukito and Bitu, how could this battle still end up like this? What on earth is Tutai doing?"

Ai Qi trembled all over.

If it weren't for the fact that Tsuchida was extremely senior in Kumogakure, having served as a minister since his father's time, his status would be equivalent to Danzo in Konoha.

He even considered replacing Tu Tai with someone else as the commander-in-chief of the war.

This battle was utterly absurd.

Even a Jinchūriki can lose when overpowered?

"Lord Raikage, things aren't that bad yet. Lord Tsuchida miscalculated in this battle and didn't unleash his full power."

"The two Jinchūriki were only able to transform into their Tailed Beast forms through the Wood Golem. The stronger one, Lord Bee, did not go all out. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Blue Flash alone to deflect two Tailed Beast Balls at the same time."

Listening to the scout's clear and concise explanation.

Ai Tieqing's expression gradually softened.

Once he calmed down, he naturally understood the reason behind it.

Among all the tailed beasts, the Two-Tails is only the weakest.

While Mirai Namikaze might be able to deflect the Two-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball, she might not be able to deflect the Eight-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball.

The Eight-Tails is the second strongest of all the tailed beasts.

Even his father, the strongest Raikage in history, could only shatter the Eight-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball with Hell Thrust, but could not deflect it.

With two tailed beasts forming an array, the advantage in this battle still lies with the Hidden Cloud Village.

Tu Tai's decision to retreat was not a defeat, but a rational choice made after careful consideration to preserve overall strength.

Thinking of this, Ai's anxious heart relaxed.

The scout beside him carefully considered his words.

"Lord Raikage, Lord Tsuchida emphasized in his reply the need to replace the standard equipment of the Cloud Ninja. Please take a look."

The scout handed him another letter.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Ai's face, which had just calmed down, turned ashen again, as if she had swallowed a toad whole.

"Such a large quantity will require a huge amount of money and manpower!"

The number of registered ninjas in Kumogakure exceeds 10,000, and more than 1,000 ninjas have been dispatched to the battlefield in the Land of Grass.

Even if each Cloud Ninja only replaces one bone ninja sword and one stone kunai, it would still be a huge sum of money.

However, Tutai used extremely strong language in this letter, and the writing was so messy and forceful that it pierced through the paper.

Ai could sense the resentment and humiliation that Tu Tai felt when writing this letter.

He took a deep breath.

His anger toward Namikaze's future rose to another level.

Gritting his teeth slightly.

"Following the requirements in this letter, find craftsmen as quickly as possible to complete it."

……

The sorrow of the Hokage's office and the Raikage's office did not dampen the jubilation of the Konoha camp.

After repelling two consecutive attacks from Kumogakure, the morale of the Konoha ninja has reached a whole new level.

Walking through the camp, you can see excited descriptions everywhere of the scene where Miki Namikaze deflected the Tailed Beast Ball.

The wording makes it seem as if Namikaze Mirai is already comparable to the Ninja God of yesteryear.

When passing by the Uchiha camp, one could hear maniacal laughter coming from inside.

The happiest people in this battle were the Uchiha.

When the clan patriarch unleashed his Mangekyou Sharingan, Susanoo powerfully knocked away the Two-Tails, and Mirai Namikaze easily deflected the Tailed Beast Ball, the combined effect nearly caused the Uchiha to burst into laughter and lose their breath.

This forced the ninjas passing by the Uchiha camp to hurry past.

He was afraid of being surrounded by a group of Uchiha who would put their arms around his shoulders and talk about his heroic deeds.

In this relaxed atmosphere, Mirai Namikaze rubbed her chin in the tent.

He had just learned that Tsunade was also at the camp.

Do you want……

Did he pull Tsunade into his room?

Chapter 76 Shizune is dumbfounded: Alive? Alive?!

"Lady Tsunade, please save him! Only you can save him now!"

The crying coming from outside the tent disturbed Tsunade's peace of mind. It felt like a huge rock was lodged in her chest, making it hard to breathe.

"Silence, let her go."

With a heavy and complicated expression, she felt terrible and spoke in a guilty tone.

"Lady Tsunade, I'm sorry, it's my fault that the news of your presence here was leaked."

Originally, she only intended to go out to find some clean water sources.

Unexpectedly, they encountered a medical ninja they knew on the way. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they chatted for a few minutes.

These few words of conversation revealed the location of Tsunade's camp.

When she returned with the collected water, there were already seriously injured ninjas being carried to Tsunade's tent.

Outside the tent.

A young female ninja knelt at the entrance of the camp, her eyes swollen and red from crying for a long time.

On the stretcher beside her was a young ninja, about sixteen or seventeen years old, whose chest bandages were stained red with blood, and whose pale face was devoid of color.

I have difficulty breathing; every breath seems to drain all my energy.

"You don't need to worry about me anymore... cough! cough cough..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a violent cough.

All that remained were painful coughs and wheezing.

"Taro!"

The female ninja gripped his cold hand tightly, her heart clenching as she watched his increasingly pained face.

Taro was wounded in the battle that had just passed.

His chest cavity was ripped open by a blade; if it weren't for the bandages, his lungs and internal organs would probably have been exposed.

The medical ninjas in the camp could only shake their heads at the sight of such injuries.
