From Hokage to Visionary

"Seeing you now, I feel really sick."

Tsunade put down the teacup and sneered, "Do you smell it? Hanzo, the rotten, dirty, and foul smell emanating from you."

boom! ! !

Suddenly, the whole room shook.

A huge amount of chakra was like a flood, carrying with it a terrifying murderous intent, blowing away the nearby tatami mats.

In a flash, there was only the sound of metal clashing, and suddenly an explosion occurred.

A visible impact wave spread out, and Uchiha Sogetsu reacted quickly, reaching out to embrace the light in his arms, and then leaped back more than ten meters.

Swish swish!

A large number of Rain Ninjas soon appeared from all directions, surrounding them with hostile looks on their faces.

In the center of the smoke, Hanzo and Tsunade faced each other with their fists, but both of them remained seated. The nearby ground could not withstand the impact and cracks were left on it like spider webs.

Uchiha Sogetsu, who was under observation, finally understood at this moment why the Third Hokage wanted Tsunade to accompany him.

This is just a test.

The situation in the ninja world is turbulent right now, and there is a trend of turbulence.

At this critical juncture, the strategically located Rain Village became Konoha's primary concern.

Konoha must figure out where Hanzo's stance lies and how much strength he actually has. This is the real purpose of the Third Hokage.

The so-called investigation into the history of seals in the Warring States Period is just an apparent "excuse".

December 12, heavy snow

I fell when I went out this morning, but luckily my hand was okay so I could continue typing. I bought a scratch ticket after get off work. I had such a bad day today, there’s no reason not to win!

Chapter 31 Hanzo: You Need to Pay More

"Withdraw."

Hanzo waved his hand and told the Rain Ninjas to disperse.

The Rain Ninjas hesitated for a moment, but as a cold gaze was cast upon them, they all bowed their heads and obeyed, and scattered like birds.

"It's better to put aside this boring little trick."

Hanzo regained his composure, reached out from the still intact tea table, picked up the teacup and put it to his lips: "The ninja world is not peaceful nowadays. Go back and tell Sarutobi Hiruzen that I hope this is the first and last time, otherwise he should understand the consequences."

The two of them had such a fierce collision just now, but they didn't damage the nearest tea table, and even the tea didn't spill.

From this we can see how terrifying the control of power is for a true Kage-level expert.

Uchiha Sogetsu silently compared himself in his heart and realized that he was still quite a distance away from these Kage-level powerhouses.

"I will report the truth to the teacher."

Tsunade put away her contempt, slowly stood up and said, "Regarding the sealing, notify us when you are ready."

Although it was only a brief fight, she was able to successfully understand the background of the demigod in front of her.

Although he is very old, he still has the might of a tiger.

"Walk."

Since her goal had been achieved, Tsunade did not stay any longer. She turned around and called Sotsuki and Hikari, then walked out of the room.

The way back was still led by the Rain Ninja.

After returning to the room, Tsunade seemed to be relieved. She sat down on the floor without any image and said reluctantly, "I am so tired. I should not have agreed to the old man. But, Hanzo, that old man, is not that simple."

"Tsunade-sama, your hand."

Uchiha Sogetsu's eyes fell on her right hand and frowned: "I didn't expect that the Salamander Hanzo's poisoning technique was so sophisticated. If it weren't for the Sharingan, I would have found it difficult to detect."

At the moment of the fight, Hanzo poisoned Tsunade in an imperceptible way.

"Oh, after so many years, there has been no improvement at all."

Tsunade glanced at her hand, then waved it away without much concern: "It's okay, I could have cured his poison a long time ago, it just takes some effort at most."

After Tsunade left, Hanzo was silent for a long time.

The hand hidden in the sleeve was slowly pulled out, the entire palm was distorted and trembling uncontrollably.

The pain of shattering bones beneath his flesh could not move this demigod of the ninja world. He stared expressionlessly for a while, and finally a deep helplessness emerged in his eyes.

No matter how hard you try, you can't hide one fact.

He is old.

The aging of the body means that the amount of chakra is decreasing, and energy and physical strength are also declining.

How long can it last?

There was a trace of confusion in Hanzo's eyes. He had worked hard all his life, but still could not change the status quo.

Looking around, the Rain Village was still under the control of the five major ninja villages, the people were still shrouded in the shadow of war, and he was forced to become a monster that even he himself felt sick of.

Tap tap tap.

The sound of footsteps brought Hanzo back to reality.

He put away all his weakness and helplessness, and turned once again into the sinister and vicious Hanzo of the Salamander who held power in the Rain Village.

"what's up?"

Hanzo's eyes were lowered, and no emotion could be heard in his tone.

"Lord Hanzo, [his] people are here." The Rain Ninja half-knelt and said respectfully.

"Hey, what day is today?"

Hanzo frowned slightly, clenched his fists, and his wrinkled face twitched. He sneered, "Even that stinky rat in the gutter can't help but test me?"

"Forget it, let him go to Room B."

He has more than one residence in this huge underground maze.

In order to prevent assassination, he would randomly change his residence every once in a while.

The Konoha Anbu wearing animal masks were taken to Room B by the Rain Ninja.

The room was furnished in the same way, with simple tatami mats, and no luxurious atmosphere. Hanzo sat with his back to him, facing the wall.

Even after hearing someone coming in, Hanzo didn't even turn his head: "What's the matter?"

Being looked down upon, the Konoha Anbu felt a little unhappy, but it was not easy to get angry, so he could only say stiffly: "My name is Terai, and Lord Danzo asked me to say hello to you and make a deal with you."

"trade?"

Hanzo's drooping eyelids slightly lifted up, revealing a gleam of light: "Interesting, go on."

"Tsunade and an Anbu who accompanied her should have arrived at the Rain Village by now." Terai lowered his voice and did not state the purpose directly, but mentioned Tsunade and her group with a deeper meaning.

Whoosh!

A cold light brushed against Terai's mask and was deeply nailed into the wall behind him.

With a snap, a crack appeared on the animal mask, Terai's pupils suddenly shrank, and the hairs on his body stood up.

"I don't have time to listen to your nonsense."

Hanzo's voice was cold, like a harsh winter wind: "If you do it again, I will chop off your head."

"Lord Danzo hopes that you can take action to capture the Anbu accompanying Tsunade." Feeling the vague murderous intent emanating from the old man facing the wall, Terai dared not keep it a secret and poured out everything he knew like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube.

Hanzo said he would take off his head, and even if Danzo came, it would be useless!

So after a brief pause, fearing that Hanzo might be unhappy, Terai immediately continued, "Danzo-sama also said that if it really doesn't work, we can also take away his Sharingan, which will also be considered as completing the commission."

"Sharingan" Hanzo pondered for a moment and asked, "What's so special about his Sharingan?"

"Forgive me. I have no comment."

Terai's face was stiff, and he lowered his head deeply: "This is the order of Danzo-sama, and I don't know the reason."

Hanzo was familiar with the Root, so he didn't make things difficult for him. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I can accept this commission, but the prerequisite is whether Danzo can afford the price."

"Ten tons of ore, ration pills, detonating talismans, herbs, and other war supplies."

Terai directly stated the conditions: "In addition, Lord Danzo also promised to send the elite of the Root to help you eradicate the rebellion in the Rain Village."

"not enough."

Hanzo raised his eyelids slightly and said in a tough tone: "If I take action, Tsunade will definitely find out. This is not enough to offend a Sannin head-on, so... I have to pay more!"

"This..." Terai gritted his teeth and said, "Danzo-sama can only give you a total of 100 tons of supplies. This is the limit. If you give more, the Third Hokage will find out!"

Hundred Tons of Supplies Hanzo finally nodded: "Okay, I, Hanzo, will accept this commission."

"I will go with you tomorrow."

Terai said respectfully, "I will do my best to distract Tsunade, and I'll leave the rest to you."

"Um"

Hanzo closed his eyes again and seemed to fall asleep.

Seeing this, Terai didn't want to stay any longer, so he slowly moved out of the room.

Shortly after Terai left, a tiny black insect, about the size of a grain of rice, suddenly emerged from the tatami where he had just sat, and quietly crawled towards the gap beside the door.

"Humph!"

A cold snort, like thunder.

The black bug was blown away by the air wave and hit the wall. It fluttered twice, as if it realized that it had been discovered.

Buzz buzz.

The black insect flapped its wings and flew out the door at an extremely fast speed.

A kunai was as fast as lightning, flashing a cold light across the room. The black bug had no time to dodge and was nailed directly to the door frame.

Hanzo, who was sitting facing the wall, turned around at some point and stared at the black bug on the door frame. A hint of coldness appeared in the depths of his cloudy eyes: "Bad bug, what a boring trick. No wonder Sarutobi Hiruzen always outshines you."

Chapter 32 Cicadas and the Girl

"Oh, it feels so good."

Tsunade, who had just finished taking a hot spring bath, sat in front of the boy in a loose kimono. "It's all because it rains here every day. I'm soaked all over and don't feel comfortable at all."

Her white and delicate skin is rosy, her long light golden hair is tied into a ponytail and hangs down. Her delicate face is still a little moist. Her slender fingers lift up the hair at her temples, exuding a hint of charm inadvertently, which makes her look more attractive as a mature woman.

The warm feeling made her unable to help but stretch comfortably.

The already loose cream-yellow kimono was slightly torn open due to the excessive movement, revealing a deep groove between the plump breasts.

A pair of round, plump, and slender legs are sitting on the tatami. Through the rather tight kimono, one can even see a bit of lace and the tightly wrapped snow-white scenery. Perhaps she has just taken a bath, and she exudes a special and rich body fragrance that smells extremely alluring.

This woman really has no self-awareness at all!

Uchiha Sogetsu, who was sitting right opposite, had his eyebrows twitching and was almost forced out of the audience state.

No wonder Tsunade has been able to hold the title of the Hokage King for several consecutive terms. It is truly something!

"Hey, kid, does it look good?"

At this time, Tsunade supported her elbows on the table, her head resting on her palms, her eyes seemed to be flowing with autumn water, full of charm.

"Tsunade-sama, could you please pay attention for a moment?"

Uchiha Sogetsu returned to the audience state and pushed his glasses expressionlessly.

Just kidding, he is a professional!

At this moment, Guang, who had just finished soaking in the hot spring, came in. Her long, smooth hair was draped behind her head. Her cheeks were slightly rosy on her pretty and lovely face. The girl's kimono was not long, revealing two long legs, as smooth as jade, slender and straight, especially her five toes, which were crystal clear and round like cardamom.

The only thing that is not perfect is that it is too peaceful.
