Naruto: They are all reborn.

Chapter 11 Even Becoming Hokage is Difficult

"How could this happen?!"

Tsunade's voice suddenly rose, and her anger gauge was filled almost instantly.

A girl's blush speaks louder than any words.

Furious and with nowhere to vent her anger, Tsunade glanced around and then punched a tree trunk, tearing the massive tree, which was as thick as two people could hug, in two.

"I clearly told the teacher to be careful!"

"Huh?" Shi Xu suddenly looked up.

Judging from Tsunade's words, it seems she had anticipated this all along? And she even warned the Hokage?

Shi Xu's voice brought Tsunade back to her senses, and she realized that she had let something slip. She immediately walked towards the door.

"Teacher, where are you going?"

"Go to the Hokage's office. You go and take a bath quietly. For dinner... I'll go out and buy some."

After giving her instructions, Tsunade left without looking back.

"Hey! Then... how am I supposed to get in?" Shi Xu couldn't hold back anymore and carried me into the bathroom before leaving.

"Never mind, I'll do it."

Kushina easily picked him up and carried him towards the bathroom: "Are you sure you can manage on your own?"

Shi Xu felt his body's condition. If it weren't for the unexpected situation at the dumpling shop, he could have taken off his clothes and lay down there by himself, but now...

"I think it should be possible," he replied hesitantly.

Kushina sighed softly, lowered her head slightly, and used her bangs to cover her burning cheeks.

"I'll do it."

"No need, Kushina-neechan, I can manage." Toki immediately refused.

Tsunade is one thing, she's an elder after all, but Kushina is different, she's a girl of his generation, so he has to be careful.

Kushina paused, her voice barely audible, "I... have experience..."

"what?"

This is the second time Shi Xu has uttered such strained interjections today.

What does it mean to be experienced?

Kushina pursed her lips tightly, and after a long while, she finally spoke: "When you used to faint... it was always... it was always me who helped you take off your clothes."

Ok? !

Shi Xu's eyes widened suddenly, and she subconsciously asked, "Isn't it Tsunade-sensei?"

"Tsunade is either brewing medicine or... doing something else; she's always busy."

Shi Xu couldn't help but complain, "She did it on purpose, didn't she?"

"Probably...".

Kushina couldn't explain the specifics either, but Tsunade always managed to find enough reasons to convince her.

"In that case, there's no need for Kushina-neechan to do this. I can manage on my own."

"Actually... I'm already used to it."

After saying that, Kushina couldn't help but cup her cheeks, feeling the heat from her palms.

Tsunade-sensei, you've done so many bad things!

Shi Xu's composure completely crumbled. He finally understood that Tsunade was clearly trying to match him up with Kushina. It was probably because he and Kushina were the only two descendants of the Uzumaki clan in the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

To be honest, Shi Xu asked himself honestly, he was by no means a saint, and greed and lust were his basic attributes.

Besides, having traveled through time, who wouldn't want to open a crystal palace?

But after actually transmigrating, I discovered that the prerequisite for indulging in lustful thoughts is having enough to eat and wear. Moreover, in this world with extraordinary powers, only if you are strong enough can you stop everyone who wants to stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at you.

Kushina raised her head slightly, only to find Toki staring blankly with a look of hesitation on her face, which immediately made her furious.

"Stop dawdling! I haven't even said anything, and you're already hesitating. You're just like that sissy!"

After gritting her teeth and saying those words, Kushina simply abandoned all thought and took action.

"Hey, wait a minute!"

Shio was powerless and was pinned to the ground by Kushina, making her look like a helpless little girl.

When will I finally stop training until I'm completely exhausted every day?!

……

On the other side, the Hokage Building.

Tsunade showed no respect to Hiruzen Sarutobi and kicked open the door to the Hokage's office.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"Teacher! Could you explain the matter of Sakumo Hatake to me?"

Still here.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed, waved his hand to signal the ANBU who had just appeared to leave, and instructed, "Close the door behind you."

Tsunade snorted coldly, waiting for the ANBU to leave before continuing her questioning: "I clearly told you this was to be kept secret, kept secret! Why is it all over the place now?"

Even before her rebirth, Hatake Sakumo had already carried out this failed mission.

However, it was wartime, and no one would hold Hatake Sakumo accountable. Every ninja in Konoha was working together to overcome the difficulties. Logically speaking, as long as the mission record was kept confidential, Hatake Sakumo could be punished privately after the war ended, and the matter would be perfectly resolved.

To Tsunade's surprise, just as the Second Shinobi World War was showing signs of ending, news of Sakumo Hatake suddenly leaked out, just like before her rebirth.

How could Tsunade not be furious!

This was clearly intentional!!

Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent, only lighting his pipe and taking a deep drag.

"call--"

"This is my responsibility. I will thoroughly investigate this matter and bring the person behind it to justice."

However, Tsunade wasn't buying it and bluntly exposed him: "The mission that Hatake Sakumo was carrying out was extremely confidential. There are only a handful of people in the entire Konoha who have access to this information. I'm afraid that even if you find out, you won't dare to take action."

"You're really going downhill as Hokage!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi narrowed his eyes slightly and slammed his hand on the table: "Where did you go back to?"

"I've come this far over the years, so don't spout nonsense with your eyes wide open. Being the Hokage is tough too."

"Yes, I acted on impulse." Tsunade's cold smile grew even more pronounced, her eyes filled with a hint of disappointment.

"The key now is not to thoroughly investigate this matter. Even if we find out, what then? Hatake Sakumo's mission information was leaked, not that he was framed, and besides..."

Tsunade paused, hesitating whether she should say what she was about to say.

Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a puff of white smoke and said, "Go ahead and speak."

Tsunade took a deep breath, suppressing her various emotions, and said seriously, "Sakumo abandoned the mission to save his comrades. If this matter is not handled properly, it will have a great impact on Konoha's Will of Fire, and may even shake the foundation of Konoha's existence."

"My grandfather founded Konoha to protect his comrades, and the essence of a ninja's existence is to carry out missions. If Sakumo Hatake's matter could be kept secret, this conflict would at least not be exposed, but now... ha! The mastermind behind it has given you a difficult problem."

"Holy Hokage, please take your time to think it over."

Tsunade snorted coldly and slammed the door shut as she left.
