I teach in Naruto, and the system says I am Tsunade's student

Chapter 259 Tsunade: Old man, you should retire (Third and Fourth Updates)

After school, Kitazawa went home.

"You're only coming back now?"

Sitting on the sofa, Kurenai asked with a puzzled look, "Did you have meetings all day?"

"No, I went back to the ninja academy this afternoon."

Kitazawa sat down next to her.

"I see."

Kurenai Yuhi's face showed a look of realization, and she asked again, "Do your students miss you?"

"I originally intended to just see them briefly and then come back, but they were so enthusiastic that I decided to give them some new training."

Kitazawa replied.

"That sounds like you're repaying kindness with enmity."

Kurenai Yuhi paused for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh.

"How can this be considered repaying kindness with enmity?"

Kitazawa raised his hand and patted her fair thigh.

But Kurenai's words reminded him of a news story from his past life: as a reward for the students, a set of homework had been bought for them.

"Okay, I'm going to cook now. What do you want to eat tonight?"

Yuhi Kurenai raised her fair, delicate foot and kicked him, asking a question.

"I also can."

Kitazawa exclaimed, "After eating out for two and a half months, everything tastes delicious when I come home."

"Home is definitely better."

Kurenai Yuhi stood up, pressed her pink lips against Kitazawa's cheek, and then turned and went to the kitchen.

After dinner, Kitazawa took advantage of the free time to return to his room and continue modifying his limb regeneration medical ninjutsu.

After the war, Konoha Village had many wounded soldiers who were missing limbs.

If Kitazawa can heal them in time using his medical ninjutsu that allows limbs to regenerate.

That would expand his reputation and the influence of this S-rank medical ninjutsu.

His system task rewards might be even more generous then.

The night is getting darker.

Kitazawa suddenly heard light footsteps.

A moment later, he felt a soft touch on his back.

"Kitazawa".

Kurenai lay on top of him and said, "I've prepared hot water for you."

Kitazawa turned around and saw her looking completely infatuated.

He couldn't help but smile and asked, "Shall we shower together?"

"I'll wait for you."

Kurenai blushed slightly and spoke with demure composure.

"What's the point of saying this at this point?"

Kitazawa stood up and picked up her soft, fragrant body.

Kurenai exclaimed in surprise, but did not struggle or refuse.

The two people went to the bathroom.

Kitazawa entered the bathtub.

Hot water gushed in from all directions, causing him to exhale a sigh of relief.

Kurenai lifted her leg and stepped into the bathtub.

Before she could even sit properly, she saw Kitazawa snuggle into her arms.

Kurenai felt his face pressed against her heart.

She bit her lip, trying to relax, but she couldn't.

Kitazawa raised his hand and patted her buttocks.

Although he was gagged and unable to speak, Kurenai Yuhi still understood what he wanted to express.

She subconsciously straightened up and shifted her body slightly.

Kitazawa wrapped his arms around her waist.

He raised his head and looked at Kurenai.

Her eyes were half-closed, her face was rosy, and she exuded an indescribable sexiness and charm.

The first bath after returning home lasted two hours, and Kurenai eventually fell asleep from being so soaked that she felt dizzy.

a new day.

Kitazawa gets up relatively early.

Because I need to assist Tsunade with her work today.

Kitazawa glanced at Kurenai Yuhi, whose face was full of exhaustion.

He couldn't help but marvel at the extraordinary power of the Senju clan's bloodline.

Their recovery ability far surpasses that of ordinary ninjas.

Kitazawa got out of bed and changed his clothes.

Although he gets up early, it doesn't mean Tsunade will be on time.

After having breakfast, Kitazawa resumed his research on his medical ninjutsu for regenerating severed limbs.

nine in the morning.

There was a knock on the door.

"Is it finally here?"

Kitazawa stood up and went to the door.

The door opened, and Tsunade and Shizune were outside.

"Let's go."

Tsunade waved her hand and walked towards the Hokage Building.

Hiruzen Sarutobi arranged an office specifically for her.

When the three arrived, there were already people waiting in the office.

It's Nara Shikaku and Nara Suzaku.

The fact that two Nara clan Jonin were present was enough to demonstrate Hiruzen Sarutobi's high regard for them.

Suzaku Nara doesn't have many scenes in the original work.

He only appeared during the Fourth Shinobi World War.

"Tsunade-sama."

Nara Shikaku and Nara Suzaku stood up, bowed, and said...

"Ah."

Tsunade took the seat of honor without ceremony and asked, "What are the arrangements?"

"Tsunade-sama."

Nara Shikaku immediately began to explain his arrangements, or rather, his plans.

A total of four thousand ninjas participated in this war.

He divided the four thousand ninjas into three categories based on their merits.

The first type is the ninja who only completed the mission, who has the least merit and does not need to be given too much extra reward.

The second type, based on the first, involves outstanding ninjas who exceed expectations in completing their missions.

As for the third type, it consists of a very small number of ninjas with great achievements, such as Tsunade and Kitazawa.

Nara Shikaku's plan was to distribute the rewards to the first two types of ninjas first.

The third type of ninja will be introduced last.

Because they have made so many contributions, what they deserve must be discussed and approved by Hiruzen Sarutobi multiple times.

"very good."

After listening, Tsunade smiled and said, "Shikaku, you really are very easy to take care of."

"It's what I should do."

Nara Shikaku replied.

"Let's start dividing the work then."

Tsunade sat up, becoming unusually serious.

After all, finishing sooner means getting rid of it sooner.

Nara Shikaku took out the ninja data that had already been divided and gave it to Tsunade, Kitazawa, and Shizune.

Kitazawa casually flipped through the documents.

The above records the number of missions completed by the ninja in this war and the details of those missions.

Kitazawa's task is to evaluate the ninja's performance based on this information.

He was making a preliminary estimate; the final decision rested with Tsunade.

The time came in the afternoon.

There was a knock on the door.

"Tsunade-sama."

Itachi Uchiha stood at the door and did not enter the office.

"Kitazawa".

Tsunade called out and then got up and walked outside.

"Let's go out for a bit."

Kitazawa naturally knew why Itachi Uchiha was looking for Tsunade.

He said goodbye to Jingyin and the others and then left the office.

"Let's talk about it right here."

Tsunade stopped in the corridor.

"Our investigation has confirmed that he was indeed a Root ninja, codenamed Tiger. After Root disbanded, he joined the Anbu."

Itachi Uchiha took a deep breath and said, "But he has already died at the hands of the Hidden Mist Village ninjas."

"Intentionally seeking death?"

Tsunade frowned.

"Have you found the body?"

Kitazawa wasn't surprised at all.

Danzo Shimura wasn't stupid; he certainly wouldn't leave them any evidence.

"Found it, but the body has been damaged."

Uchiha Itachi replied, "The ninja from the analysis team said that most of the memories in his mind are no longer accessible."

"It's really troublesome."

Tsunade sighed and said.

Without sufficient evidence, she could not directly take action against Danzo Shimura.

After all, he is still a ninja of Konoha, and Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others will try to stop him.

"Is there anything else you need me to do?"

While secretly regretting it, Uchiha Itachi asked another question.

Putting Konoha aside, he desperately wanted to kill Shimura Danzo.

Because he wanted to avenge Uchiha Shisui.

Unfortunately, Danzo Shimura still managed to escape unscathed.

"That's all for now. Thank you for your hard work. You can go now."

Tsunade shook her head and said.

"Yes."

Uchiha Itachi bowed slightly and then turned to leave.

Although he failed to harm Danzo Shimura this time, he saw hope.

As long as Tsunade is around, Danzo Shimura will one day pay the price he deserves.

"Tsunade-sama."

After listening, Kitazawa said, "I think we can take the initiative."

"What do you mean?"

Tsunade turned to look at him and couldn't help but ask, "Do you intend to assassinate Shimura Danzo?"

"Lady Tsunade, this kind of thing is against the rules of Konoha Village."

Kitazawa blinked and said.

"If you have a solution, just say so!"

Tsunade glared at him.

"The reason why Shimura Danzo targeted you is because he was obsessed with the position of Hokage."

Kitazawa coughed lightly and said, "Once the Hokage selection process is initiated, he will definitely become restless and will make a move against you."

"You really want me to become Hokage?"

Tsunade laughed in anger.

"After Lady Tsunade becomes Hokage, I can cling to her coattails and then I can do whatever I want in Konoha."

Kitazawa stated the truth.

"..."

Tsunade was at a loss for words for a moment upon hearing this.

It seems like Kitazawa got all the benefits after she became Hokage.
"Lady Tsunade, this kind of fussing isn't like you," Kitazawa said with a smile.

Do I need you to teach me?

Tsunade lifted her leg and stomped on his foot, asking a question.

"Lady Tsunade will make her own decision."

Kitazawa said from the heart, "I'm just making a suggestion."

Tsunade looked at him and fell silent.

A moment later, he couldn't help but laugh at himself.

As Kitazawa said, when did she become so fussy and indecisive?

"Come with me to the Hokage's office."

Tsunade turned around, her tea-green jacket with the word "gamble" printed on it fluttering in the wind as she moved.

Kitazawa smiled upon seeing this.

Have we finally reached this final step?
Bang!
Tsunade kicked open the door to the Hokage's office.

"It's you."

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked calmly, "Is there some problem at work?"

"Old man."

Tsunade cut to the chase and asked, "When do you plan to retire?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was stunned.

If this question were asked to someone else, their first reaction would be, "Are you trying to rebel?"

But he couldn't quite figure out what Tsunade was thinking.

Why are you suddenly asking me this question?

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and said, "I am the Hokage. The prerequisite for a Hokage to retire is that the next Hokage has been chosen."

"If you want to retire, just start the Hokage selection process."

Tsunade said calmly.

"you mean……?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes widened, but he still couldn't quite believe it.

"I've already made myself very clear, and I don't want to repeat myself."

Tsunade's gaze drifted to the window, where she could vaguely see the Hokage Rock, and her feelings became incredibly complicated.

She never actually wanted to become Hokage.

Her lifelong wish has been for Nawaki to become Hokage.

But God did not fulfill people's wishes.

"it is good!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately stood up and said, "I'll send someone to inform the daimyo right now!"

The Hokage selection process has three stages.

The daimyo agreed, the Jonin voted, and the villagers voted.

Procedurally speaking, obtaining the name's consent is the first step.

Of course, the first actual step is the approval of the current Hokage.

Once the current Hokage decides who the next Hokage will be, the rest is just a simple procedure to follow.

"I'll go myself."

Tsunade snapped out of her reverie and said, "It's a perfect opportunity to invite the Daimyo to a victory celebration banquet after the war."

"That's a good idea."

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and said, "When the daimyo is happy, the funding next year might be much higher."

A small portion of Konoha Village's expenses comes from mission commissions, while the majority comes from funding from the Land of Fire.

This is why the Daimyo of the Five Great Nations hold a high position in the ninja world.

After all, they have money.

Of course, the main reason is that Hashirama Senju established the system of one village per country.

Over the years, the ninjas have long since become accustomed to it, and no one thinks about changing things or killing the daimyo and taking his place.

"When are you leaving?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi had considered everything very carefully. "I'll have Shikaku select some suitable ninjas to go with you."

"No need to bother."

Tsunade refused, saying, "Kitazawa and I will go."

"Just the two of you?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked, somewhat taken aback, "Isn't this a bit against the rules?"

"Daiming won't care."

Tsunade said calmly.

"Too."

Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly remembered that Tsunade had a good relationship with the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Of all the Hokage of Konoha, only Hashirama Senju could achieve this.

"I'll go on Friday."

Tsunade thought for a moment and said.

Since she had accepted the task of rewarding meritorious service, she would naturally not go back on her word.

Although time is tight, they can use shadow clones to speed up their work.

Friday?

Hiruzen Sarutobi thought for a moment and said, "Then I will change the funeral from Saturday to Sunday."

Tsunade and Kitazawa were key figures in winning this war.

It would be inappropriate for them not to attend the funeral.

"Ah."

Tsunade paused for a moment and then said, "The Jonin election and the village election will be held next week."

"no problem."

Hiruzen Sarutobi agreed without hesitation.

Once this process is completed, he will definitely be able to retire before next Sunday.

Having served as Hokage for decades, he is about to retire, and he still feels an eagerness to do so.

After all, being the Hokage means taking on a heavy responsibility, meaning that the villagers and ninjas of Konoha Village have to shoulder that burden.

He's getting old, it's time for him to step down and let the younger generation take over.

"Alright, I'll leave the rest to you. Let's go back to work."

Tsunade waved her hand and left the Hokage's office.

Although she had decided to become Hokage, old habits die hard, and she remained a carefree person who would slack off whenever possible.

"Does Lady Tsunade intend for Danzo Shimura to attack us on our way to the capital of the Land of Fire?"

Kitazawa caught up with her and asked.

"Ah."

Tsunade nodded.

"But is it just the two of us?"

Kitazawa coughed lightly and said, "I think we can bring Itachi along. In case something really goes wrong, he can help."

"how?"

Tsunade glanced at him and asked, "You don't have confidence in me?"

"Of course I'm confident, but I personally prefer to only do things when I'm sure of success."

Kitazawa said seriously, "Besides, we don't know how many people Shimura Danzo will bring."

"You have a point."

Tsunade pondered for a moment and said, "Then let Itachi lead a team of ANBU to secretly follow us."

"I'll inform him when the time comes."

Kitazawa nodded and said.

Hokage's office.

"clear."

After they left, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately shouted.

"Hokage-sama."

Qing pushed open the door and walked in.

"Send someone to inform the villagers and ninjas now that the Hokage selection process will begin next week and that they should prepare to vote."

Hiruzen Sarutobi gave the order directly.

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Qing couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

Are they changing the Hokage?

Who will be the next Hokage?
The name Tsunade immediately popped into Haru's mind.

Because she had just left the Hokage's office.

Moreover, no one in the entire Hidden Leaf Village is more qualified to become the next Hokage than her.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Qing snapped out of her daze and quickly replied.

Changing the Hokage is also a major event for the Anbu.

However, the darker areas will be less affected.

Generally, when a new Hokage takes office, he will select two or three ninjas from the Anbu for training.

For example, she herself was chosen by Hiruzen Sarutobi to become a bodyguard.

"and many more."

Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly remembered something and said, "While you're at it, call Danzo over."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Qing bowed slightly and then turned to leave.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat calmly in the Hokage's chair, waiting.

He knew that Danzo Shimura had never given up on the Hokage position.

But no matter how unwilling he is to give up, he is not qualified to become Hokage.

Now that Tsunade is about to become Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi plans to give Danzo Shimura a warning and tell him not to act recklessly.

After working together for so many years, he didn't want to see anything happen to Shimura Danzo.

"Hiruzen."

Not long after, Danzo Shimura, leaning on his cane, walked into the Hokage's office.

How have you been doing at home lately?

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked with a chuckle.

Danzo Shimura was taken aback.

As Hiruzen Sarutobi's longtime partner of several decades, he sensed the problem the moment he opened his mouth.

Why would he care about his life under normal circumstances?
"Fortunately."

Danzo Shimura said in a lukewarm tone.

"It seems you've adapted somewhat."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and said, "After I retire next week, we can visit each other more often."

"You're retired?"

Danzo Shimura's pupils suddenly contracted, and his heart felt as if it were being squeezed.

"Yes."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and said, "I'm getting old, it's time for me to retire. I'll leave Konoha to Tsunade."

"Hiruzen!"

Danzo Shimura said urgently, "This matter should be considered carefully!"

"Is there any ninja in Konoha Village more suitable to be Hokage than Tsunade?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi countered with a question.

"..."

Danzo Shimura hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

He wanted to say something to him, but he also knew that he was no match for Tsunade.

But... he was unwilling to accept it!

"Danzo, you're getting old. There are some things you should let go of."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said earnestly.

"You've gotten old, but I'm not!"

Danzo Shimura turned and left in a rage.

boom!
The door is closed.

Hiruzen Sarutobi fell silent.

He shook his head. He had said what he needed to say. If Shimura Danzo did anything foolish again, it was none of his business.

This should be handled by the next Hokage.
