Lurking in Konoha, part-time Hokage

It was already night when Hanekawa woke up again.

He was still in Tsunade's arms, his face pressed against her shoulder, and a faint fragrance lingered.

Hanekawa opened his eyes subconsciously, and what he saw was a bustling street, or Tanshu Street.

He turned his eyes to the left and could see Tsunade's snow-white neck and golden hair hanging down.

"Are we going back?"

Hanekawa moved his body and immediately felt the soft cushion on his body.

"What are you going back for?"

Tsunade raised her eyebrows and said with a smile on her face, "I won so much money today, so I have to celebrate it."

"Where will we sleep then?"

Hanekawa yawned and asked.

"Don't worry, there will definitely be a place to sleep."

Tsunade stopped.

In front of her was a gorgeously decorated izakaya.

"Welcome, two guests."

Seeing them stop, a young woman wearing a cheongsam immediately came forward to greet them.

"Bring me the best wine you have here!"

Tsunade said with great pride.

"yes!"

The young woman smiled and said, "You two, please come in."

"Come down."

Tsunade looked down at Hanekawa, bent down, and let go of him.

"Thank you, teacher."

Hanekawa secretly thought that it was a pity that there was no pillow.

Tsunade touched his head and walked into the izakaya.

She glanced around, seeing all the guests, and asked, "Is there a private room?"

"Yes, I just need more money."

The young woman replied immediately.

"That's okay."

Tsunade walked towards the private room.

"Teacher, drink less."

Hanekawa sat opposite her and warned.

"I have my own sense of proportion."

Tsunade flicked his forehead and emphasized, "How many times have I told you that it is the teacher who controls the students, not the other way around."

"It better be this way."

Hanekawa simply didn't believe that she could take care of herself.

Tsunade rolled her eyes at him. Just as the wine bottle was on the table, she didn't bother to argue with this brat.

An hour later, Hanekawa became very helpless.

"Come on, come on!"

Tsunade was drunk and her face was red. She hugged Hanekawa and said, "You...you drink with me!"

"We should go, teacher."

Hanekawa grabbed the wine glass and said.

"No... no rush!"

Tsunade shook her head and said, "One more...drink, one last...last drink!"

As she said that, she reached out to grab it.

Hanekawa refused, and was knocked down by her.

His vision went dark, and his whole body was buried in the burden of his crimes.

Fortunately, Tsunade grabbed the wine glass and stood up to let him go.

"teacher!"

Hanekawa couldn't help but yelled.

"Why are you so loud?"

Tsunade was shocked and sobered up.

"No more drinking!"

Hanekawa said with a cold face.

"If you don't drink, don't drink."

Tsunade and him looked at each other, defeated and said a little aggrievedly.

Hanekawa sighed.

Question the silence, understand the silence, become the silence.

Tsunade, someone really needs to look after her.

"Let's go check out."

Hanekawa got off the table and looked back to see Tsunade secretly picking up the wine glass again.

"One bite, just one bite."

Tsunade raised her index finger and said.

"no!"

Hanekawa stepped forward, grabbed her hand, and walked out.

"Damn you little devil!"

Tsunade cursed and said, "I'm your teacher!"

Hanekawa simply ignored it.

He paid the money and took Tsunade out of the izakaya.

Although another hour passed, the number of pedestrians on the street did not decrease at all.

The street lamps emit warm light, illuminating the street like daylight.

Tsunade glanced at Hanekawa, who had a sullen face, and suddenly smiled brightly.

"This is it."

Hanekawa looked around and saw that the hotel in front of him was the largest.

He went in and booked two rooms.

"teacher."

Hanekawa stopped at the door of the room, looked at the drunk Tsunade, and asked, "Are you okay?"

"Do you know how to care about your teacher now?"

Tsunade asked with a slight hum.

"I've always cared about teachers."

Hanekawa paused and said, "I'll ask the boss to prepare a bowl of hangover soup."

"Need not."

Tsunade flicked his forehead and said, "This little wine is nothing."

This is the truth.

For her, who possesses the Yin Seal, relieving her hangover is just a thought.

The reason why I don’t get hangover is because I enjoy the feeling.

"Stop flicking your forehead all the time."

Hanekawa complained, "It will affect my IQ."

"All right."

A smile appeared on Tsunade's face, she bent down, kissed him on the forehead, and said, "Good night."

She then opened the door and entered the room.

Hanekawa was stunned by her sudden attack, and it took him several seconds to react.

His first thought was not about taking advantage, but about danger!

Because in the original work, all the people who were kissed on the forehead by Tsunade died.

This has the same effect as the original necklace.

Now that he has gathered both, who can withstand this?

Hanekawa twitched the corner of his mouth.

He wanted to lay traps around the room to protect himself.

But forget it, he can hold on to his life.

After all, it has a unique entry system.

A new day.

After breakfast, Hanekawa and Tsunade returned to Konoha Village.

"We're going to the Hokage building to get the money."

Tsunade suddenly thought of something and said, "It's the reward for a B-level mission, so I can't refuse it."

"Um."

Hanekawa glanced at her.

She had already returned to her normal appearance, as if she had forgotten what happened last night.

Oh, scumbag!

Hokage's office.

The door suffered another old sin and endured Tsunade's kick firmly.

But it didn't crack, and it was indeed a hero among the sect.

"Old man...Hey, Sakumo is here too."

Tsunade walked into the Hokage's office, noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere, and asked, "What happened?"

"I...my mission failed..."

Hatake Sakumo changed his past calmness and became very decadent.

"Failed?"

Tsunade was a little surprised.

It is indeed rare for Hatake Sakumo to fail despite his strength.

"Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs. All you have to do is start over."

Tsunade thought for a moment and said comfortingly.

"Tsunade, it's not that simple."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and said, "This time it caused a lot of losses to the Fire Country. Even the Daimyo was alarmed."

Hanekawa was shocked when he heard this.

This is obviously the mission that led to Hatake Sakumo's suicide in the original work.

But he didn't expect to be met live.

If you think about it carefully, it's normal.

He is an unexpected butterfly, and any move may cause a butterfly effect.

Moreover, in the original work, Tsunade had long since left Konoha because of her fear of blood, let alone speaking out for Hatake Sakumo.

"Let me check the situation."

Tsunade stepped forward, picked up the mission scroll and read it over.

Hatake Sakumo writes in quite detail.

In addition to the high difficulty of the mission, there was another reason for the failure.

That was Hatake Sakumo who saved his companions at the critical moment of the mission.

"The matter has come to this, and we can only try our best to save it. I'll go talk to the Fire Country Daimyo."

Tsunade put down the scroll and said in a deep voice, "Old man, blaming won't solve the problem."

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but be stunned.

At this time, Tsunade looked more like Hokage.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

After he had just learned that Hatake Sakumo's mission had failed, his first thought was how to give an explanation to the Land of Fire and the Leaf Village.

He even thought about handing him over to the Fire Country Daimyo to calm down his anger.

In the world view of "Naruto", ninjas serve the daimyo.

The key to this matter is not in Konoha Village, but in the Country of Fire.

Tsunade's approach was the most correct.

Hatake Sakumo subconsciously raised his head.

He looked at Tsunade and seemed to see the will of fire burning.

"Then please make a trip."

Sarutobi Hiruzen calmed down and said, "Don't anger the daimyo, otherwise, the allocation for the next year will be affected."

"Don't worry, it's not a big problem."

Tsunade chuckled and said, "The daimyo still owes me several favors that he has yet to repay."

"That's true."

Sarutobi Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

As a medical ninja, Tsunade had treated the daimyo family from several serious illnesses and was life-saving.

"...?"

Hatake Sakumo was stunned for a moment.

Is it that simple to solve?

"Sakumo, you worked hard to escape death this time. Go back and rest for two days."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Hatake Sakumo and said.

Mistakes come with penalties.

But he never intended to kill him.

After all, Hatake Sakumo is very powerful, and without him, Konoha Village will suffer.

Missions inherently have the possibility of failure.

If every time a mission failed, one had to pay with one's life, Konoha Village would have been empty.

In terms of true danger, in the original work, Orochimaru's danger is more serious than Hatake Sakumo's failure in a mission.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen still relented and let him go.

"Uncle Sakumo."

Hanekawa caught up with Hatake Sakumo and said, "Kakashi has been worried about you."

"Kakashi?"

Hatake Sakumo felt warm in his heart and asked, "Where is he now?"

"Today is Sunday. He is at the teacher's house, training with Shisui and the others."

Hanekawa thought for a while and said.

"Thanks."

Hatake Sakumo said with emotion, "Kakashi is luckier than me to have a friend like you."

Don't make it sound like you're giving your last words!

Hanekawa rolled his eyes and said: "Not necessarily friends. Kakashi always wants to defeat me, but his sword skills are still a little behind."

"How dare you underestimate our swordsmanship?"

Hatake Sakumo was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "I'll give him special training when I get back. You have to be careful!"

"I'll wait."

Hanekawa nodded vigorously.

Hatake Sakumo walked a few steps and suddenly came back to his senses.

Hanekawa seemed to be deliberately trying to persuade him.

The relationship between the two of them is not particularly close. Is this because of Kakashi Hatake?

"Kakashi, you really made a great friend this time."

Hatake Sakumo couldn't help but said.

Hanekawa did not return to the Hokage's office, but stood at the door and waited.

After a while, Tsunade came out.

"How about it?"

Hanekawa asked.

"I got the money!"

Tsunade shook the bankbook in her hand and said.

"I'm talking about Uncle Sakumo, are you sure?"

Hanekawa corrected.

"Of course."

Tsunade put away the passbook and said casually, "You don't understand the daimyo. As long as you don't threaten his rule, this little loss is nothing."

Hekawa was slightly startled, then he understood.

In the current ninja world that is always in war, the daimyo of the Fire Country cannot do without Konoha Village.

As long as he doesn't rebel, it's not a problem.

"It just so happens that you can come with me."

Tsunade touched his head and said, "If you get the recognition of the daimyo, your path to becoming a Hokage will be much easier."

"Okay."

Hekawa was also quite curious about the prosperous metropolis of the Fire Country.

"Rest for a night and set off tomorrow."

Tsunade pondered for a moment and said, "Anyway, things are already like this, there's no point in rushing."

Hekawa was about to speak, but stopped again.

Now that there is no so-called public opinion, there is really no need to rush.

After all, no more than five people know that Hatake Sakumo's mission has failed.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded.

Hekawa raised his head and saw a middle-aged man with a gloomy face.

"Tsk."

Tsunade showed her disgust without hiding it, "Hekawa, let's go."

"Yes."

Hekawa followed Tsunade and left.

"Tsunade!"

Shimura Danzo snorted coldly, looking at Hanekawa, feeling very sorry.

He should have been tougher at the beginning and snatched him from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Now he can only watch Hanekawa's reputation as a genius become more and more famous.

His swordsmanship is not inferior to Hatake Kakashi, his illusion is not inferior to Uchiha, and his medical ninjutsu is the best among his peers.

Every time Shimura Danzo thought of Hanekawa, he felt so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.

He retracted his gaze, took a deep breath, and walked into the Hokage's office.

"Hiruzen."

Shimura Danzo said with a serious face, "Hatake Sakumo must be severely punished!"

"No need."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said.

"What do you mean by no need?"

Shimura Danzo frowned and asked, "Hiruzen, do you know how much damage he has caused?"

"I know."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said calmly, "Tsunade will explain to the daimyo."

"Tsunade? She is also making a fuss!"

Shimura Danzo's face darkened and asked, "How can you convince the public if you don't give Konoha Village and the Land of Fire an explanation for this matter?"

"This is the explanation, Danzo."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said lightly, "As long as the daimyo doesn't pursue it, it's over."

"What about Konoha?"

Shimura Danzo said confidently, "Hatake Sakumo violated the ninja code!"

"Rules are dead, people are alive."

Sarutobi Hiruzen paused slightly and asked back, "Do you remember how many ninja codes you have violated?"

"I'm different!"

Shimura Danzo immediately put on a righteous expression, "Everything I did was for Konoha!"

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was speechless for a while.

You can lie to yourself, but don't lie to your old friend.

Some things are indeed for Konoha, but some things are hard to say.

"Enough! I am the Hokage!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was too lazy to debate with him and ended the topic directly.

"You will regret it!"

Shimura Danzo said subconsciously.

"You'd better be more disciplined in this matter!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at him and said in a deep voice, "I'm not old yet!"

Shimura Danzo's face froze.

He knew Sarutobi Hiruzen was not joking.

Although it was uncomfortable, he could only do it.

This is the reason why he has been willful for decades. In key matters, Sarutobi Hiruzen still makes the decision.

Four thousand words.
