Chapter 38 Arrival in Konoha Forty Years Later

The plan for a year is in spring, and the plan for a day is in the morning.

In the morning, Tobirama Senju and his six disciples gathered in the Hokage's office, all for the sake of a short time travel.

Akimichi Torifu, Mitokado Homura, and Utatane Koharu didn't actually need to come because they didn't have any time-travel slots.

However, they felt that if they didn't come, they would seem out of place.

They also wanted to witness how Tobirama and his companions traveled through time, and see if they could find any loopholes to allow them to travel through time as well.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Tobirama spoke up, "I checked Madara's grave yesterday and found that the coffin was empty, which proves that Madara is indeed not dead."

At this point, Tobirama glanced at his glasses and asked, "Kagami, have you made any progress over there?"

Jing shook her head and said, "One night is still too short; I need more time."

Tobirama did not make things difficult for Kagami.

He knew that a family like theirs, which had been passed down for hundreds of years, must have a vast collection of books.

It's really impossible to find the secret technique to fake Madara's death in just one night.

"Hiruzen, what about you? Is there anything bad happening with Orochimaru?"

Aside from the fact that Madara Uchiha was still alive, Tobirama was most concerned about Orochimaru.

This is a genius of the next generation in Konoha; we can't let him become a rogue ninja like what's shown on the screen.

Even though he eventually returned to Konoha, his betrayal of the village and the killing of his teacher, the Third Hokage, were stains on his record.

"I talked to Orochimaru for a long time last night. He's definitely showing some bad signs. He kept discussing topics like the meaning of life with me."

Hiruzen Sarutobi scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

As a teacher, he was completely outmatched in his conversation with Orochimaru.

He didn't know how to answer Orochimaru's question.

If Orochimaru asked him questions about escaping techniques, he could answer immediately without even thinking.

However, the question of life is too profound and complex, and answering it with his limited knowledge proved extremely difficult.

"If nothing goes wrong this time travel, bring Orochimaru to see me when you return."

"Okay, Tobirama-sensei."

Seeing that Hiruzen had agreed, Tobirama nodded and continued, "By the way, there's something I should have told you and Kagami last night, so you wouldn't forget after we came back from the other world. I'll tell you now."

Touching his chin, Tobirama mentally organized his thoughts before saying, "You all know that I recently sent members of the 'Ino-Shika-Cho' families to protect the various castle lords of the country, right?"

The six students replied in unison, "We know, Tobirama-sensei."

"Good to know. Each castle lord has members of the 'Ino-Shika-Cho' trio in charge, but the daimyo has a different idea. He wants Hiruzen and Kagami to go and protect him."

"Teacher, I'm fine."

Kagami had no objection to protecting the daimyo and quickly agreed.

Hiruzen, on the other hand, became hesitant.

"Hiruzen, what are your thoughts?"

Faced with Tobirama's question, Hiruzen asked sheepishly, "Sensei, how long will it take Kagami and me to get there?"

"I don't know. It could take anywhere from one or two months to one or two years."

"I see."

Hiruzen frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "Can I bring my three students with me?"

Hiruzen felt that if he didn't take Orochimaru with him, Orochimaru would probably be in Tobirama's shape by the time he returned.

He didn't want his talented disciple to be snatched away by someone else.

Even if this person is Tobirama-sensei, it won't work.

"The Daimyo will probably agree to let Tsunade go with them, but they definitely won't agree to let Orochimaru and Jiraiya go."

Tsunade and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire are related; the former calls the latter her maternal grandfather.

Otherwise, do you really think that Princess Tsunade is called that because she is Hashirama Senju's granddaughter?

The title of princess can only be held by direct relatives of the daimyo of each country.

If his own granddaughter were to come and protect him, the grandfather would probably be overjoyed and would never turn her away.

Jiraiya and Orochimaru are out of the question; they are outsiders and cannot get close to the daimyo.

"If I leave, what will happen to Orochimaru and the others?"

"It's okay, I'll take care of teaching them."

Tobirama spoke with absolute certainty.

Tobirama had always admired Orochimaru.

While Hiruzen was away protecting the daimyo, he could take him along and teach him properly.

Tsunade is Tobirama's granddaughter, so Tobirama naturally wouldn't refuse to teach her.

As for Jiraiya at the end.

Tobirama figured that anyone who could earn the title of one of the Legendary Sannin alongside Tsunade and Orochimaru in the Second Shinobi World War couldn't be too bad, so he decided to teach them all together.

"Do you have any other questions?"

Seeing that Tobirama-sensei had already arranged everything, Hiruzen had nothing more to say. He could only sigh and reply, "I'm fine."

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

"That's good."

At this moment, Danzo asked somewhat anxiously, "What about me, Sensei?"

His meaning was clear: Kagami and Hiruzen had gone to protect the daimyo, but what about him? Did he have other plans?

In response to Danzo's question, Tobirama replied directly, "You and the others should just stay in Konoha and rest easy."

"Is that so?"

Danzo's clenched fists showed that he was very unwilling to accept this situation.

He didn't really want to protect the daimyo or anyone else; he just didn't want to lose to Hiruzen.

Tobirama ignored Danzo's resentment. He checked the time and found that it would be 9:30 in a little over a minute.

He immediately took out four face masks from the drawer.

One of the cards was placed over his own face, while the other three were distributed to the three people who would be traveling through the area later.

Looking at the masks in their hands, the three asked in confusion, "Teacher, what's this?"

"In order not to cause any trouble for the village forty years from now, I should just conceal my identity a little and show the village's headband."

"I see."

Upon hearing Tobirama-sensei's reason, the three of them quickly began to put on their masks.

By the time they had put on their masks, it was exactly 9:30.

In an instant, a rotating circular formation appeared beneath the feet of the four of them.

Before they could even see the patterns on the array clearly, a flash of white light appeared, and the four of them disappeared from the office.

Akimichi Torifu, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura exchanged glances, said nothing, and tacitly stood outside the office door.

They will not allow anyone to enter until Tobirama Senju and the other three return.

Konoha Village in 61.

In a small alley not far from the village entrance, with a spatial fluctuation, Tobirama, wearing a mask, successfully arrived in Konoha forty years in the future.

"Where are Hiruzen and the others?"

Looking around, Tobirama did not see his three students.

He immediately realized that this time travel must have been a random trip where the four of them were scattered anywhere in Konoha.

"I wonder where the three of them are?"

After standing there for a moment, Tobirama decided not to go looking for them, but instead headed towards the management platform, which was where the Chunin Exams were being held on the light screen.

Meanwhile, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had appeared in the bathhouse, was being chased by a group of women.

Uchiha Kagami, who appeared on the outskirts of the village, asked a passerby for directions and then headed towards the Uchiha residence.

Danzo was very lucky; he appeared directly between the Third Hokage and the Fourth Kazekage.

This undoubtedly saved him travel time, allowing him to get there directly in one step, which is truly commendable!
