After traveling through time, I became friends with Tsunade

Inside the Hokage's office.

Since Sarutobi Hiruzen succeeded as Hokage, these three people have quarreled in his office countless times, and he himself has often participated in them.

Mito Kadokando looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen anxiously, and raised his voice and said, "Hiruzen, the Daimyo is trying to divide our Konoha! Don't you want to think about taking some measures?"

Utane Koharu's eyes widened, her cheeks puffed with anger, and she angrily echoed, "Yes, Hiruzen, since the founding of Konoha, there has never been a Daimyo interfering in the ninja village! Aren't they afraid that Konoha will become alienated and distance themselves from their Daimyo's mansion?"

"I know, but if we attack the Daimyo, Konoha will become the laughing stock of the ninja world. Moreover, over the years, we have only used the Daimyo as a tool for appropriation, but have never tried to understand why the current Daimyo has the confidence to do such a thing."

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned tightly, holding his chin with his left hand, and fell into deep thought. After a while, he spoke: "Call Shikama."

Danzo Shimura quickly stopped him, crossed his arms, and said loudly: "No! Sarutobi, don't forget how deep the friendship between Shikama and Sakumo is."

"Perhaps, Sakumo is just a pawn of the Daimyo?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned to look at Shimura Danzo, his eyes revealing confusion.

Shimura Danzo took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and then said: "Even if he is a pawn, when he took over the so-called Hokage half-sleeve, did he ever take us seriously?

So, no matter whether Hatake Sakumo is loyal to Konoha now, Sarutobi, you have to be ruthless. Otherwise, with the support of the Daimyo behind him, he will become the fourth generation in a few years."

"Hmph, the current Hokage is still alive, why is there a need for the next generation to take over?" Utane Koharu folded her hands across her chest, glanced with disdain, then looked at Mito Kado En, and they both nodded at the same time.

"Hmph!" Danzo Shimura looked at the two simple-minded people, cursed in his heart, and then shook his head in disappointment.

"The Daimyo's methods are endless. Don't forget that the Hokage's status in the Land of Fire is lower than that of the Daimyo.

If a war broke out and the village was short of money and supplies, but the daimyo was slow to allocate funds, as soon as Hatake Sakumo took action, the daimyo would immediately prepare supplies.

What do you think the villagers will think? What will the ninjas under your command do? "

"War? Don't forget, World War II just ended not long ago. Apart from those reckless people in the Hidden Cloud Village, who else would be willing to start a war?"

As soon as Mito Kado En finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, "Indeed, it's time to be ruthless."

He raised his head, took a few puffs of his cigarette, and said slowly, "After all, it's easy for the daimyo to start a war."

......

When Yusuke and Tsunade were still on the way, Uchiha Fugaku and Yuhi Shinku appeared first, followed by Nara Shikama. So Yusuke took them back to the Senju clan.

"I never dreamed that one day I would enter here as a friend." Uchiha Fugaku stared at the Senju clan's land that had shrunk several times, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Don't waste time there, come in quickly."

Yusuke and the others had already strode into the gate. They turned around and looked at Uchiha Fugaku, who was still standing there, sighing, and said helplessly.

Uchiha Fugaku showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, quickly apologized, and hurriedly followed.

After entering the clan's territory, Youjie transformed himself into the host, sitting calmly on the main seat in the reception room, listening carefully to them telling what happened this afternoon.

"It seems that Senior Sakumo is in a very dangerous situation indeed." Yusuke couldn't help but feel sympathy for Hatake Sakumo's situation.

"We all know this, Yusuke, do you have any way to resolve it?"

Nara Shikama asked. He had been thinking hard all night but could not come up with a good plan to help Hatake Sakumo escape successfully. Even if he thought of a way, it would become impossible to implement due to Hatake Sakumo's own personality.

"I am helpless. Even if Sakumo-senpai swore that he would never become Hokage in his lifetime, it would be useless. Moreover, with his personality, he would never do that."

Yusuke shook his head helplessly and continued, "But I really can't figure out what the Daimyo's real intention is. Does he want the Konoha high-level officials to be afraid of Sakumo-senpai and force him to join the Daimyo's office and serve him? Or does he truly support Sakumo-senpai and fully support him to become Hokage?"

"There's more." Uchiha Fugaku looked at Tsunade's expression and carefully took out the gift given to him by the daimyo - a mysterious scroll.

He held the scroll tightly, an indignant look on his face, and said angrily, "It clearly records the shameful things that the Third Hokage and some high-ranking officials have done to the Uchiha clan over the years."

Nara Shikama took out the gift given to him by the daimyo without hesitation. Inside was the certificate of appointment as the Minister of the Daimyo Prefecture. As long as he signed on it, the certificate would take effect immediately.

Yusuke and Tsunade looked at each other, then took out their own boxes. The three of them looked at each other, with shock written all over their faces, "You guys have it too?"

"Yes, the daimyo suddenly found us at night and gave these to us."

Yusuke spoke slowly, then slowly took out a letter from the box. On the first page of the letter, the words "Recommendation letter from the Fourth Hokage" were clearly written in large letters.

Tsunade was looking at the box in her hand in shock. Yusuke came forward curiously. Wherever he looked, there were densely packed names. "Tsunade, what's yours?"

Tsunade took a deep breath, her eyes widened, her face full of disbelief, "Yusuke, these are the members of the Senju clan after they became civilians, which is their current name."

Yusuke was completely shocked by the Daimyo's move. He frowned and muttered to himself in confusion, "But Daimyo, why does he have these lists?"

"Maybe." At this time, Nara Shikama finally came back to his senses. He said thoughtfully, "This was given to the daimyo by your father, Tsunade. After all, your father served in the daimyo's mansion for a period of time before."

"My father?" Tsunade said doubtfully, "But my father passed away before all the members of the clan left the clan."

"Then it is very likely that the Second Hokage and your father had already considered the idea of ​​civilianizing the Senju clan. These lists may be pseudonyms thought up by the clan members who supported them at the time."

Nara Shikama said with certainty, "If not, it is really difficult to explain the origin of this clear and detailed list."

"But how did he know that I needed this?" Tsunade looked at Nara Shikama with a puzzled look on her face, but Yusuke took over the conversation, "There must be many people in Konoha who are spies of the Daimyo."

"Yeah." Nara Shikama agreed with Yusuke's point of view.
