Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 454 Tsunade: Another one trying to scam funding, huh?

Looking at Yuya, whose expression seemed genuine, the middle-aged Sasuke opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately said nothing.

What could he say?

The Hokage in front of us is clearly possessed!

Although I had heard from my father that the Hokage was almost driven mad by the thought of the next Hokage, I never imagined it would actually come to this...

No, I'm from the future! From the future! Aren't you even a little bit surprised?!

Why is this the first question?!

Seeing that middle-aged Sasuke's expression was off, Yuya's own expression turned serious: "Could it be... that the person who took over after I died wasn't doing a good job?"

Yuya thought for a moment and continued to ask the middle-aged Sasuke, "Who exactly is it? If I suddenly die, there shouldn't be many people who can succeed me... Hiruzen Sarutobi? From all angles, he is indeed the most likely to take over, but he is really not very good at his job."

Or is it... Tsunade?

Hmm... Judging from her reputation throughout the village, Tsunade is indeed qualified for this position...

It was only then that the middle-aged Sasuke realized what was happening, and he hurriedly said to Yua, "No... it's not Lady Tsunade... well, let me just say it directly, after you died, Konoha Village fell into chaos, and there has been no Hokage since then."

Yuya frowned and looked at the middle-aged Sasuke: "What do you mean? What does it mean there's no Hokage?!"

At this stage, the position of Hokage represents a great deal of meaning.

Just because Konoha is the strongest ninja village in the entire ninja world doesn't mean it can act recklessly.

The only difference between the other villages and Konoha is that Konoha was able to destroy the entire ninja world, while the other villages would have to unite to destroy it.

In the end, the world is finished, so there's no difference.

However, this is based on a premise.

That is Konoha's army, meaning the military force they have can actually be used to fight.

In other words, the ninja army of Konoha needs someone to lead them and make good use of their high-tech weapons; it needs a high-intensity, high-capability command center.

Of course, the most important thing is...

There needs to be a stable and continuous logistical support system.

Everyone knows this without You Ya having to say it.

Therefore, if Yua's death would cause chaos, then the army would theoretically be the least affected.

Since Yuya does not allow the military to engage in business, the military must rely on funding and resources from Konoha Village to survive.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, as long as Konoha remains stable and nothing happens that could lead to an economic crisis, the military will be fine.

If the military is functioning properly, then naturally there shouldn't be any major problems.

but now……

This middle-aged Sasuke said that Konoha Village was in chaos...

Just as You Ya was about to ask further, the blond kid next to him let out a growl from his stomach.

"Um, sorry." The little rascal blushed shyly.

You Ya smiled and opened the door: "Come in, I'll cook you some noodles."

After letting the two of them in, You Ya went to the refrigerator and took out a pack of noodles.

"Isn't this too much...?" The middle-aged Sasuke didn't sit on the sofa, but went to the kitchen and said to Yuya.

You Ya: "It's okay, I want to eat some too. I can tell you have a lot to tell me."

The middle-aged Sasuke remained silent for a moment, then nodded.

Just then, a surprised voice rang out: "Where did this brat come from?"

Wearing her pajamas, Tsunade waited for several minutes but Yua didn't return, so she put her pajamas back on and went outside, where she saw middle-aged Sasuke and a little kid.

"Huh, Grandma Tsunade?!" The kid looked at Tsunade in shock.

Tsunade's forehead veins bulged: "I may be almost fifty, but I'm not exactly an old lady, am I?! You damn brat!"

The middle-aged Sasuke quickly stepped forward to stop him: "Lady Tsunade! Please forgive him! He's still young and doesn't know any better."

As he spoke, the middle-aged Sasuke introduced himself again.

"From the future?" Tsunade rolled her eyes dismissively, then looked at Yua and said, "Honey, are people who scam funding this brazen these days? Orochimaru, that bastard, brought my grandfathers here to ask for money, and here's this guy making up this nonsense?"

As You Ya cooked, he chuckled and said, "Who knows? Let's hear what they have to say for now."

Tsunade, seeing the smile on Yua's face, realized what was going on, and then said suspiciously, "Honey, you wouldn't... want to know who will succeed you as Hokage, would you?"

You Ya smiled slightly but did not say anything.

Tsunade slapped her forehead and then glared at the middle-aged Sasuke.

It's one thing to scam funding, but to target Yua's weaknesses to do so?!

Forget it, so be it.

Tsunade sat on the sofa, grabbed the blond kid, and rubbed his head to ease her mood.

As people get older, they do develop a natural affinity for children.

Before long, You Ya served noodles to the others.

Seeing that she was the only one with two heart-shaped fried eggs in her bowl, while everyone else only had one fried egg and they were all just casually fried, Tsunade smiled with satisfaction.

In any case, You Ya is experienced in pleasing his wife.

The middle-aged Sasuke looked at this differential treatment, took out a notebook from his pocket, and then wrote it down.

I've learned something! I'll see if I can find an opportunity to use it on Sakura when I get back.

After Yuya handed the chopsticks to the middle-aged Sasuke and the blond kid, he didn't touch them himself. Instead, he said, "Now, can we talk properly?"

The middle-aged Sasuke nodded, and then introduced himself, saying that he was Uchiha Sasuke from the future.

Tsunade was indeed somewhat surprised.

I only knew the name Uchiha Sasuke because of Kushina.

After all, Kushina and Mikoto Uchiha were best friends.

After glancing at the middle-aged Sasuke a few more times, Tsunade pursed her lips, feeling a little uneasy.

It can't be true...

Then, the middle-aged Sasuke said that during this year's graduation ceremony at the Ninja Academy, during the annual formality that Yua used to go through, a figure would appear.

The other party is a member of the Otsutsuki clan.

The opponent directly caused chaos in Konoha Village, so as the Hokage, Yua naturally had to deal with them.

However, that guy from the Otsutsuki clan was indeed very strong. After a battle with Yua, even though Yua used the Golden Buddha to destroy a large part of the opponent's body along with the entire northern part of Konoha, the opponent still tried to kill Yua by fighting to the death.

Fortunately, the other ninjas from Konoha rushed forward and desperately blocked the enemy.

The opponent's attack ultimately missed, but Yua was also seriously injured...
