After traveling through time, I became friends with Tsunade

The atmosphere in the Hokage's office was somewhat solemn.

Sarutobi Hiruzen listened to Yusuke's words attentively and sighed slightly: "Yusuke, if the results of this investigation prove that it was indeed the work of the Hidden Cloud Village, I guess they will definitely not admit it. Besides, most people in the village don't want to go through another war at this time."

After saying this, Yusuke silently put down the teacup in his hand, crossed his arms, stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a sharp gaze, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "If that's the case, then what's the point of letting me go over and investigate?"

"Oh, by the way, Patriarch Fugaku, the matter about the security team that you asked Hokage to take care of some time ago has just been taken over by Master Qufeng. I will take you to Master Qufeng."

Nara Haruna looked at Uchiha Fugaku who was on pins and needles, and an idea came to her mind. Then she hurriedly said goodbye, "Hokage-sama, I will take Fugaku over first."

"Hokage-sama, I will take my leave now."

Uchiha Fugaku quickly stood up and followed Nara Haruna.

After the two of them closed the door and left, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned to look at Yusuke and explained earnestly: "Yusuke, when you hold power in your hands, you must not act on impulse in many cases. You must know that the military strength of the Hidden Cloud Village in the Land of Lightning is almost the same as that of Konoha.

Moreover, the whole ninja world knows that they are a group of reckless people. In the previous Second Ninja World War, their losses were not great, and they are fully capable of launching a war, and we cannot act rashly. "

However, Yusuke remained silent, but Sarutobi Hiruzen could clearly see the look of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed helplessly and continued, "As a person in power, many things are done for the people below to see. Several elite Anbu disappeared at the border for no reason. If we do not take any action, it will not only encourage the arrogance of the enemy country, but also chill the hearts of our followers. Asking you to investigate is just for them to see."

Upon hearing this, Yusuke immediately asked, "What if the Hidden Cloud Village is certain that we will not go to war with them, and thus becomes even more aggressive?"

"That won't work either." Sarutobi Hiruzen replied with a wry smile, "If they weren't truly reckless, they wouldn't act this way. We in Konoha advocate peace, but we also have our bottom line."

Hearing this, Yujie stopped talking and slowly walked to the window of the office, staring at the scenery outside. After a while, he said, "Teacher, when you are upset, you must like to watch here, right?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, walked to the window, and whispered: "Yes, as Hokage, everything we do every day is for the land outside the window and for the villagers here."

Yusuke then asked: "When you are looking here, do you see the scenery of the village? Or the many villagers? Or the Hokage Rock that symbolizes glory?"

Yusuke's eyes never looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, and Sarutobi Hiruzen did not respond to him, but just stared at Yusuke quietly.

After a moment of silence, Yusuke moved his gaze away from the window and stood in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Teacher, what you just said does make sense, but I think you are wrong about one thing." Yusuke's voice was firm and powerful.

"Cowardice is the original sin!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked directly at Yusuke, feeling a strange feeling in his heart.

"Yusuke!" His eyes became deeper.

"If the Hidden Cloud Village directly launches a war, Konoha will definitely take it. But if it's just a little friction, the best way is to resolve it peacefully through negotiation."

"I understand. I'll leave in two days."

Yusuke said, and walked towards the door decisively. Halfway through, he turned around and said, "Teacher, if my life or the life of my loved ones is threatened, can I kill the person who threatens my life?"

"Sure." Sarutobi Hiruzen answered without hesitation.

"Okay." Yusuke turned around again.

It's a pity that no matter how affirmative Sarutobi Hiruzen's answer was, Yusuke would always remember what happened to Hyuga Hiashi, although it was not him who died, but his younger brother Hizashi.

But his identity is the patriarch of the Hyuga clan, which is much higher than Yusuke's current status.

So, if Yusuke really did kill him, but the other party threatened Konoha to hand over the murderer or else they would start a war, would you do the same as you did to the Hyuga clan? Sarutobi-sensei.

When he returned to his office, Uchiha Fugaku was standing at the door waiting.

"Fugaku, go back and make some arrangements first, and notify your trusted aides. We'll meet at the usual place tonight."

"I understand." Uchiha Fugaku looked at Yusuke's serious expression, responded immediately, then turned and left.

Back in the office, Yusuke leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

He couldn't act against Sarutobi Hiruzen right now and could only depend on him for the time being. Therefore, he couldn't offend the Hidden Cloud Village unless his life was threatened.

They probably hadn't fought enough in the last war, and Konoha stopped the war too quickly, so they hated Konoha Village and began to stir up trouble on the border in an attempt to start another war.

Just as Yusuke was thinking, the office door slowly opened and a figure walked in quietly. Her steps were light, as if she was afraid of disturbing Yusuke.

Coming behind Yusuke, she gently stretched out her white hands, placed them softly on Yusuke's shoulders, and began to massage slowly and rhythmically.

The only one who would do such a service for him would definitely be Aburame Shiho.

Her fingers sometimes rubbed gently, sometimes pressed hard, as if playing a beautiful melody on Yusuke's shoulders. Each press was just right, allowing Yusuke's muscles to gradually relax. From time to time, she did not forget to tease Yusuke.

"Shiho, is Senior Nara Shikama in the Hokage Building?" After enjoying the massage service for a while without any response, Yusuke asked her.

"Yes, do you need me to ask him to come over?"

Aburame Shiho put her mouth close to Yusuke's ear and asked softly.

"Okay, go now. Then go inform Biao (Shimura Maki) and Yu (Hinata Hiroya) to cancel any surveillance on the Uchiha clan from today onwards. Let them have a day off tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, prepare to fill up your ninja tool bag and follow me to the border of the Land of Lightning."

"Yes!"

Yusuke stretched lazily, and Aburame Shiho retracted her delicate look, showing her decisive side and walked quickly towards the door.

It’s unclear whether Nara Shikama has other things to do right now, but Yusuke has already prepared the reception etiquette.
