Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

Chapter 327 Decisiveness, the True Power of the Hokage

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, casting a long, thin golden band of light on the floor of the Hokage's residence in Konoha.

The Fifth Hokage, Tsunade, sat on the edge of the bed, gazing somewhat unfocusedly out the window.

She had been sitting there for a long time, from the darkness before dawn until the sun rose.

Last night's experience felt like an overly vivid dream, leaving her still somewhat dazed.

She went to another world.

She met another Konoha.

Konoha, a place with wide, clean streets, smiling pedestrians, and children chasing and playing in the alleys.

She met another version of herself.

That version of myself, dressed in a white Konoha deputy kage robe, with composure and confidence in my eyes, accompanied by my lover and supported by my friends.

She even met Rope Tree from another world, her younger brother who should have died on the battlefield many years ago but was living a good life in that world.

Everything is true.

I never imagined that I would be doing so well in another world.

Tsunade lowered her head and looked at her hands.

These hands have signed countless files, clenched countless fists, treated countless wounded soldiers, and buried countless comrades.

She always believed that this was her destiny, the weight that the Hokage had to bear.

But when she saw herself in another world, she realized that she could also live such an easy and happy life.

"But why isn't it me?! Do I have the ability to change my own destiny?"

Tsunade murmured to herself, took a deep breath, stood up, walked to the mirror, and tidied her appearance.

Even though she hadn't slept all night, her mental state was surprisingly good due to the Thousand Hands bloodline, the Yin Seal, and the stimulation from a lot of information.

"And what about that kid? Did he just drop me off and then go back?"

Thinking of this boy who had completely changed her perception of him, a strange light flashed in Tsunade's amber eyes.

I pushed open the door and went out, and then I saw that figure sitting in the living room. My heart skipped a beat.

Uchiha Yao was sitting at the table with several paper bags in front of him, emitting the aroma of food.

He had obviously just returned from outside, taken a stroll around Konoha, and even bought breakfast.

Seeing Tsunade come out, he looked up and smiled slightly: "Good morning. I bought some breakfast, I don't know if it suits your taste."

Tsunade looked at him, a complex and indescribable emotion welling up inside her, vaguely feeling like she was looking at her brother-in-law.

The other version of myself in that world is much younger than me, so I guess I could say she's my younger sister.

But it looks exactly like me, and everything else is the same.

In this situation, having such a good relationship with the Uchiha brat in front of me, isn't that like the vague feeling of one of my twin sisters being married off?

Tsunade was somewhat dazed.

However, Tsunade still maintains a friendly relationship with Uchiha Yao.

After all, he is the shadow of another world, and his strength is greater than mine.

He also built another Konoha, the Konoha that also belonged to his grandfather, into an even better place.

Even Tsunade, a member of the Uchiha clan, had to admit that such an outstanding individual was far superior to those Konoha advisors who only knew how to fight for power and hinder her.

Tsunade still felt a sense of closeness towards Uchiha Yao.

So, I walked to the table, sat down, picked up a rice ball, took a bite, and then asked:

"You came into my world, what do you want? Do you want to conquer this world?"

Uchiha Yao smiled and shook his head.

He picked up his teacup, took a small sip, then put it down. He looked calmly at Tsunade, his voice gentle and sincere: "In my world, I call Tsunade 'older sister.' You're a little older than Tsunade, so I'll call you 'Big Sister Tsunade.'"

Upon hearing this, Tsunade thought to herself, "This Uchiha brat, what kind of 'older sister' is he? Am I that old?" But she didn't refute it; she simply nodded in acceptance.

Uchiha Yao continued, "Conquest is merely the most basic means of consolidating interests. There are actually many more ways to consolidate interests. Besides, to come to this world, I would need to use my eye techniques as the core, which would consume too much of my eye power. The best relationship will be one where we fully research the power of the Dragon Veins, completely open the mutual channels, and communicate and cooperate with each other—that kind of mutually beneficial relationship."

Tsunade paused for a moment, carefully considering her words. Then, a smile appeared on her face: "As expected of someone who has built Konoha into such a prosperous place in your world. These words, though seemingly simple, actually hit the nail on the head."

She paused, a hint of approval in her eyes: "Especially considering your strength, the fact that you can still think this way shows you don't have the arrogance of someone with power. You're so young, it's truly commendable that you can do this."

"I've just seen too much," Uchiha Yao explained simply. He didn't mention how many worlds he had seen in the Star Palace, or how many civilizations had risen and fallen. Those experiences were too distant and too heavy to mention at this moment.

What's this talk of conquest and rule? That's so outdated. It's much better to transform the world according to your own values, to create a world full of love and beauty. That way, your descendants can live better lives, and your own world's Mikoto, Kushina, and Tsunade can live better lives too.

After understanding Uchiha Yao's thoughts, Tsunade immediately made a decision. She took out a token from her bosom and handed it to Uchiha Yao: "From today onwards, you will be Konoha's special advisor. I hope you can become more deeply involved in Konoha's affairs in this world."

Uchiha Yao took the token, examined it, and a slight smile curved his lips: "Interesting. Well, this suits my ideas better."

He put away the token and nodded: "Then I shall accept it without hesitation."

We headed towards the Hokage Building.

Tsunade walked ahead, her face bare of makeup and her hair casually tied back. Despite the shock of the previous night, her overall appearance and spirits were remarkably good. Her steps were more steady than usual, her gaze sharper, and the aura emanating from her was more powerful than ever.

Behind her stood Uchiha Yao, who appeared calm and composed, his steps light and his gaze calmly sweeping over the surrounding street scene. He wore a simple white robe, his long black hair swaying gently in the morning breeze, and his handsome face was particularly striking in the sunlight.

Seeing Tsunade and the handsome, puppy-like Uchiha Yao following behind her, passersby on the street couldn't help but turn their heads, whispering and gossiping among themselves. The rumors spread like wildfire throughout the village.

As the two entered the Hokage Building, Shizune was walking down the corridor carrying a stack of files. She saw Tsunade and was about to greet her when she suddenly noticed Uchiha You behind Tsunade. She froze, nearly dropping the files. Her mouth gaped open, her eyes widened, and her face was filled with shock.

"Tsunade-sama... and who is this...?"

Tsunade waved her hand dismissively, saying, "The new advisor. You'll see later."

Shizune's mouth gaped even wider. An advisor? Such a young advisor? And why does Lady Tsunade's aura seem completely different today?

However, before Tsunade could even enter the office, two elderly figures blocked her way.

Mitokado Yan and Utatane Koharu.

The two Hokage advisors stood side by side, their faces grim, their eyes filled with undisguised anger and accusation. Mitokado Homura, leaning on his cane, spoke in a hoarse and stern voice: "Tsunade! As the Kage of a village, you have failed in your professional ethics! To openly walk with such a young man—what kind of conduct is this! You are utterly unfit to be the Kage of a village!"

Koharu Utatane chimed in, her voice shrill: "As advisors to the Hokage, we have a responsibility to supervise the Hokage's conduct! What you're doing is tarnishing Konoha's reputation!"

Their voices echoed down the corridor, attracting a crowd of staff who stopped to watch. They pointed and whispered among themselves, their eyes darting back and forth between Tsunade and Uchiha You.

Tsunade stopped in her tracks.

She didn't immediately retort, but simply stood there quietly, watching the two old men pointing fingers at her. Her gaze, initially calm, gradually turned cold. She thought of Konoha in another world—where advisors were assistants to the Hokage in handling government affairs, not shackles that rode on the Hokage's head and bossed him around. She thought of herself in another world—the self who could implement new policies without restraint, without having to consider anyone's opinion.

Why? Why should she endure all this?

She suddenly raised her foot and kicked the chair next to her! The chair flew out with a whoosh and smashed accurately into the door at the end of the corridor! "Bang—!" With a loud crash, a large hole was smashed in the door, and wood chips flew everywhere.

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone was stunned. Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu were so frightened by the sudden violence that they took a step back, their faces turning pale.


"From today onwards, Konoha will no longer have a Hokage advisor! And neither of you will have any right to interfere with the Hokage's decisions!"

Mitokado Homura's face was ashen, his finger trembling as he pointed at Tsunade: "You...you dare! This is a violation of ancestral rules!"

"Ancestral rules?" Tsunade sneered, her eyes filled with undisguised mockery. "Where were you when the Second Hokage died? What did you do when the Third Hokage was in power? Besides pointing fingers and fighting for power, what contributions have you made to Konoha?"

Her words were like sharp knives, precisely piercing their vital points. Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu were choked speechless, their faces flushed red, their chests heaving violently.

Tsunade stopped looking at them and turned to Might Guy, who was standing to the side, saying, "Guy! You are responsible for escorting these two 'former advisors' home. From today onwards, without my order, they are not allowed to set foot in the Hokage Building!"

Might Guy paused for a moment, then straightened his back and said in a loud voice, "Yes! Hokage-sama!" He strode forward and made a "please" gesture, "Please, both of you."

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu exchanged a glance, both seeing anger and resentment in each other's eyes. But faced with Tsunade's unquestionable gaze and Might Guy's towering figure, they ultimately dared not say anything more, and could only grit their teeth and turn away.

Tsunade stood in the middle of the corridor, her gaze sweeping over the onlookers. Her voice was cold and authoritative: "Pass down the order—everyone, obey the Hokage's orders. Anyone who disobeys will be treated as a traitor."

"Yes!" the crowd responded in unison and dispersed.

Kakashi, Might Guy, and the other Jonin witnessed the entire event. Seeing Tsunade's decisive actions and the unwavering resolve in her eyes, they all understood—Tsunade was about to reclaim all power.

Back in her office, Tsunade didn't rest for a moment and immediately began implementing the new policies.

She first revised the Ninja Academy's textbooks. The new textbooks incorporated historical accounts from the Warring States period and a series of events since the founding of Konoha. Most importantly, she provided a detailed account of the virtues and shortcomings of each Hokage, exposing the lies of the Third Hokage's decades-long propaganda about being the "strongest Hokage" and "bringing prosperity and strength to Konoha."

She wanted to use the truth to weaken the influence of the advisors left over from Hiruzen Sarutobi's era. She wanted to establish the true Will of Fire—the Will of Fire that sprouted from the unity of the Senju and Uchiha clans when they united most of Konoha's power, not the version distorted and altered by the Third Hokage and Danzo.

At the same time, she began to consolidate power in various departments, purging the old faction's personnel through ostensible promotions but demotions. Those who occupied high positions but did nothing, those incompetent people who climbed up through connections, and those parasites who secretly colluded with Danzo—she would not let any of them go.

Kakashi watched Tsunade's almost radical pace of reform with some concern. He stepped forward and whispered, "Lady Tsunade, the Akatsuki are watching us closely from the outside, and internal turmoil makes us vulnerable to external attacks. Shouldn't we slow down a bit...?"

Tsunade didn't even look up, coldly saying, "Kakashi, Article Seven of the Ninja Code states that no ninja may interfere with the Hokage's decisions for any reason. Do you intend to defy the Will of Fire?"

Kakashi fell silent. He opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing, simply stepping aside quietly.

Mitokado Yan's home.

The two former advisors sat facing each other, their faces so dark they seemed to drip water. Mitokado Homura slammed his fist on the table, his voice filled with barely suppressed rage: "That girl Tsunade! How dare she! How dare she!"

Koharu, her face also contorted with anger, cried out in a shrill voice, "She must have been bewitched by that unknown boy! We must find a way to control her!"

After a brief discussion, the two immediately began contacting various established families.

They believed the Hyuga clan was Tsunade's backer, so they planned to mobilize the Ino-Shika-Cho clan and the Sarutobi clan to jointly restrain Tsunade. At the same time, they urgently summoned Danzo, who was away from the village, back, hoping that his old partner could turn the tide.
