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

Chapter 264 Tsunade's Kiss, The Fifth Hokage Succession Ceremony (Six Chapters Combined)
Kitazawa stepped forward and bowed slightly.

The two bunches of white chrysanthemums and the evening primroses he bought were offered to the war heroes at the recent funeral.

"Let's go."

After he finished bowing, Tsunade said, "It's almost time, let's go have lunch."

"Are you eating at home?"

Kitazawa looked at her and asked.

"want to drink."

Tsunade met his gaze and spoke.

"This is a difficult thing."

Bei Ze looked troubled and said, "Senior Sister Jingyin will definitely not agree, and you have to go to work this afternoon."

Tsunade didn't speak, she just looked at him.

"Then I'll go to work for you?"

Kitazawa blinked and asked.

"Very good, I was right about you."

Tsunade smiled slightly, raised her hand and patted his shoulder, saying.

The two arrived at the izakaya.

"Lady Tsunade, the first cup is for you."

Kitazawa raised his glass and said, "Congratulations on becoming the Fifth Hokage."

"There's nothing to congratulate about this."

Tsunade pursed her lips, clinked her wine glass with his, and then drank it all in one gulp.

"Lady Tsunade doesn't seem to be in a good mood."

Kitazawa put down his glass and asked, "Want to bet on drinks?"

"Come!"

Tsunade perked up and said, "I'm going to get you drunk today!"

Why did you get me drunk?

Kitazawa twitched the corner of his mouth and asked.

"I've never seen you drunk, and I'd like to know if you'll act crazy when you're drunk."

Tsunade, with a mischievous expression, said, "That would definitely be interesting."

"I always win when we gamble on drinking."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "I reckon you won't see the day I get drunk."

"hateful!"

Tsunade, looking furious, said, "What are you being so arrogant about? I'm going to beat you today!"

"Then let's get started."

Kitazawa stretched out his hands and played a rock-paper-scissors game with her.

Tsunade took a deep breath, bit her finger, and stretched out her hands very seriously.

But clearly, no matter how hard she tried, it wouldn't make a difference.

"Please drink, Lady Tsunade."

Kitazawa raised his hand and said.

"I refuse to believe it, let's try again!"

After drinking a glass of wine, Tsunade played a drinking game with Kitazawa again.

One cup after another.

Ten minutes later, Tsunade's face turned very red from drinking too much alcohol, and she looked quite drunk.

"Lady Tsunade, let's pause for a moment and have some food."

Kitazawa put down his glass and offered his suggestion.

"no!"

Tsunade bent down, grabbed his shoulder, and said with a reluctant tone, "Again!"

Kitazawa then felt a patch of fair skin swaying in front of him.

He shook his head and said, "Eat some vegetables first, then continue."

"Do you believe I'll throw you out right now?"

Tsunade's face hardened, and she asked.

"If you throw me out, who will gamble and drink with you? Who will cover your shifts?"

Kitazawa reluctantly looked away, then looked at her face and asked.

"you!"

Tsunade's expression froze. After a two-second stare, she sat back down and muttered, "Fine, I'll eat the vegetables!"

After saying that, he picked up his chopsticks and stuffed food into his mouth, quickly puffing out his cheeks.

Kitazawa couldn't help but smile.

Quite cute.

When does the Jonin election start next week?

Kitazawa picked up a piece of fried shrimp and asked.

He has classes next week.

Except for Mondays, there will be time conflicts.

"Zhou... Monday."

Tsunade answered while chewing, her voice sounding muffled.

"That's just right."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "I don't need to ask the school for leave."

As for the villagers' vote, that's none of his business.

“If you… if you’re too busy, you can… send your shadow clone to help.”

Tsunade licked her lips, her face flushed, and said.

"Of course, the person in charge should be present for such an important event."

Kitazawa said with a smile.

"Anyway, it's all just going through the motions."

Tsunade picked up her wine glass and said, "Pour me some wine!"

"I'll give you a congratulatory gift then."

Kitazawa poured her a glass of wine and said, "You'll definitely like it."

"Yes...really?"

Tsunade smiled brightly and said, "It's hard to make me like you."

After she finished speaking, she tilted her head back and downed a glass of wine.

Water droplets slid down the corners of her mouth and down her snow-white skin.

The originally cold drinks became warm again.

When is the Hokage succession ceremony?

Kitazawa withdrew his gaze and asked again.

"Saturday."

Tsunade put down her wine glass, her eyes somewhat unfocused, and said, "There are... more villagers and ninjas who are available."

"Indeed."

Kitazawa picked up a piece of fried fish and placed it in her bowl, saying...

Tsunade straightened up and shook her head.

As she moved, her clothes showed off their shapely elasticity.

Kitazawa was stunned.

"Let's continue our drinking game!"

With a bite of fried fish in her mouth, Tsunade said, "I'm going to beat you today!"

"How about we drink it another time?"

Kitazawa looked at her slightly trembling body and asked.

"What are you talking about?"

Tsunade glared at him and said, "Drinking is all about drinking to your heart's content!"

Kitazawa had no choice but to continue playing rock-paper-scissors with her.

In less than five minutes, Tsunade drank six more cups.

She slumped to the side and landed face down on the table, her clothes flattened by the weight of her body.

"Drink...keep drinking!"

Tsunade raised the wine glass to her lips.

But because she's lying face down, her posture is incorrect, making it difficult for her to drink the alcohol.

She simply stuck out her tongue, like a cat, and licked the wine.

Kitazawa subconsciously swallowed.

The scene before me was too impactful.

A mature and voluptuous woman, her face flushed and her eyes darting around, was licking her wine.

It is truly full of sexiness and allure.

"Lady Tsunade, let me take you back to rest."

Kitazawa composed himself and said.

"I...I don't need to rest!"

Tsunade straightened up again, shoved a glass of sake into Kitazawa's mouth, and said, "You drink too!"

The glass was half full because she had just licked it halfway.

"We'll drink again next time."

Kitazawa grabbed her wrist and said.

"Next time...we'll drink next time!"

Tsunade gave a light snort and said, "You...you're too weak!"

"You're the one who's drunk, yet you call me weak?"

Kitazawa took the glass from her, drank it, and said, "Let's go home now that we're out of drinks."

"No return!"

Tsunade leaned back in her chair and said.

Kitazawa glanced at her twice and then simply put away the wine on the table.

"Hey? Wait a minute!"

Tsunade quickly stood up, grabbed his hand, and said somewhat angrily, "Bring out the sake!"

But because she was drunk and couldn't stand steadily, she fell into his arms.

Four words came to Kitazawa's mind.

Charging someone with the ball.

"Let's go back and drink."

Kitazawa supported her waist and said.

"You...you're not lying to me!"

Tsunade leaned against him and asked in a nonchalant manner.

"Let's go."

Kitazawa smiled gently and said, "You'll know whether I lied to you or not when we get home."

"I...I'll trust you this once."

Tsunade poked him with her finger, released him, and walked outside, swaying slightly.

Kitazawa quickly followed her.

"Drinking with you is not bad, better than being on silent."

Tsunade went outside, and the wind made her a little more awake.

"Jingyin will be sad if she hears this."

Kitazawa couldn't help but laugh.

"It's because she never lets me enjoy my drink."

Tsunade said confidently.

"Senior Sister Jingyin is doing this for your own good,"

Kitazawa coughed lightly and said.

"Humph!"

Tsunade glanced at him, but didn't refute anything.

"Tsunade-sama."

Kitazawa suddenly remembered something and asked, "I'll be going to work for you this afternoon. Is there anything I should be aware of?"

"No...no."

Tsunade thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "If... there is one, then go find Shikaku."

The two chatted as they walked and soon arrived home.

"Kitazawa".

Tsunade stood in the doorway, leaning against it, watching him.

"what happened?"

Kitazawa met her gaze and asked, "Is there anything else?"

I have a gift for you.

Tsunade suddenly laughed and said, "This can increase your luck."

"Lucky?"

Kitazawa's lips twitched.

Do you have anything to do with luck?
Tsunade walked up to him and looked up at him.

She reached out her hand, beckoned, and said, "You're too tall, come down a little."

Kitazawa was slightly taken aback.

Suddenly it dawned on me.

Could this be the forehead kiss Tsunade gave in the original work?
With the first necklace and Tsunade's forehead kiss, he felt he had reached the absolute limit; he would have to consult an auspicious day before going out.

Kitazawa bent down.

Tsunade reached out and placed her hand on his shoulder.

She looked at Kitazawa, her eyes somewhat unfocused.

Tsunade bit her red and bright lips.

She suddenly remembered the beautiful dream Kitazawa had woven while treating her hemophobia and his warm embrace after the treatment ended.

Tsunade, as if possessed, kissed him.

Suddenly her eyes widened.

She froze on the spot, completely sober.

A kiss on the forehead and a kiss on the lips have completely different meanings.

Tsunade looked at Kitazawa and felt her heart pounding.

An unprecedented feeling welled up inside me.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, she pushed Kitazawa away, turned around, and went into the house.

She closed the door, leaned against it, and gasped for breath.

How could this be?
Tsunade held out her hand and put it to her mouth.

Kitazawa, standing outside the door, subconsciously let out a breath.

How did a forehead kiss turn into a full kiss?
Kitazawa hesitated for a moment, then decided not to go looking for Tsunade again.

He turned and walked towards the Hokage Building.

"This was a good deal; we even managed to break the Kiss of Death."

Kitazawa walked into the Hokage's office with a smile.

"Kitazawa? It's you? Where's Lady Tsunade?"

Upon seeing him, Jingyin immediately asked warily, "Did she go gambling again?"

"No."

Kitazawa immediately made up a reason, saying, "I asked Lady Tsunade to help me perfect the final step of the medical ninjutsu for limb regeneration."

"last step?"

Shizune paused for a moment, then exclaimed in amazement, "If it really succeeds, it will benefit all ninjas."

After all, any ninja is likely to experience intense battles, and may lose an arm or a leg.

If they had medical ninjutsu that could regenerate severed limbs, they would no longer have to worry.

"Lady Tsunade thinks so too."

Kitazawa said without changing his expression, "I will take her place at work this afternoon."

"Ah."

Jingyin nodded, no longer doubting, and said, "Then please sit down."

"It's not appropriate for me to sit in the Hokage's chair."

Kitazawa raised an eyebrow and said.

"Aren't you interested in the Hokage position?"

"Silence asked in return."

"Lady Tsunade hasn't even officially become Hokage yet, and we're already discussing this issue?"

Bei Ze stepped forward and teased, "Senior Sister Jingyin, you're up to no good."

"I believe you can become the Sixth Hokage."

Shizune smiled and said.

"It's too far off to talk about that."

Kitazawa glanced at the documents on the table and said, "Let's get to work."

Time passes slowly.

The afternoon passed quickly.

"Your work efficiency is quite good, better than Lady Tsunade's."

"Silent praises," she said.

"You and Lady Tsunade really do hurt each other."

Kitazawa paused slightly, then said.

He was thinking about Tsunade's evaluation of Shizune after the drinking session at noon.

What do you mean by "harming each other"?

Shizune let out a soft "hmm" and asked.

"nothing."

Kitazawa changed the subject, asking, "What are the plans for tonight? How about my place?"

"Okay."

After a moment's thought, Jingyin said, "Then I'll go buy groceries."

"I won't say any more polite words. I'll go home and wait for you."

Kitazawa stood up and said.

"Go see Lady Tsunade first when you get home."

Shizune clenched her fist and said, "If she's not here and has gone to the casino, I will not let her off easily!"

"You are indeed very suitable to be the Hokage's secretary."

Kitazawa couldn't help but smile and said, "See you later."

He left the Hokage's office.

After returning home, he went to the neighbor's house.

He hesitated for two seconds at the door before raising his hand to knock.

But after waiting for a while, Tsunade still didn't open the door.

"Did they really go to the casino?"

Kitazawa thought for a moment, took out his key, and opened the door.

He took off his shoes and went into the living room.

Kitazawa arrived at the door of Tsunade's room.

The door is not closed.

He spotted Tsunade lying on the bed at a glance.

She didn't take off her clothes and was sleeping sprawled out like that, looking completely unladylike.

Kitazawa glanced subconsciously at the clothes that rose and fell with her breath.

Four words popped into his mind again: lying down is the best.

Kitazawa withdrew his gaze and stood still, knocking on the door.

"Which bastard?"

Tsunade's dissatisfied voice rang out.

"It's my fault, you bastard."

Kitazawa said with a smile.

Tsunade opened her eyes immediately.

She sat up and rubbed her temples.

Memories from before I went to sleep flooded back into my mind.

Her face froze instantly, and she subconsciously bit her rosy lips.

"Lady Tsunade, Shizune-senpai went to buy groceries. We'll be having dinner at our house tonight."

Kitazawa spoke first.

"Ah."

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "You go back first, I'll be there in a bit."

"Don't stay up too late, lest Senior Sister Jingyin becomes suspicious."

Kitazawa offered a reminder, then turned and left.

"He really is shameless."

Tsunade looked at Kitazawa, who seemed completely unaffected, and couldn't help but let out a soft snort.

But she quickly regained her composure.

After all, she is Tsunade.

Night falls.

Kitazawa, Tsunade, Shizune, Kurenai Yuhi, and Karin and her mother had dinner together.

Just like usual, there's not much difference.

One night passes and a new week begins.

on Monday.

The Jonin were unusually lively.

Because today is the long-awaited Jonin election.

Since the founding of Konoha Village, there have only been four Jonin elections, and this is the fifth.

"If I had known, I should have applied for the Jonin Exam as soon as the war ended."

Kurenai said with a regretful expression.

She can't participate in the Jonin vote if she's not a Jonin.

"The outcome is already decided, so it makes no difference whether we participate or not."

Kitazawa said with a smile.

"There are still differences."

Kurenai rolled her eyes at him and said, "At least you can show your support for Lady Tsunade in front of her."

"If you really want to support her, you can become the first Jonin after she becomes Hokage."

Kitazawa thought for a moment and then said.

"That's a good suggestion!"

Kurenai's eyes lit up, and she said, "I'll apply next week. By then, I should have already learned Wind Release: Rasengan!"

"Then I wish you success in advance."

Kitazawa picked up the milk and said.

With Kurenai's current strength, becoming a Jonin wouldn't be difficult.

In addition to genjutsu, she also mastered sealing techniques, superhuman strength, and wind-style Rasengan.

His overall strength has reached the standard of a Jonin.

"Just don't forget our bet."

"Itsuki said with a smile."

"I haven't forgotten."

Kitazawa took a sip of milk and said, "But you've already lost. I can complete the medical ninjutsu of limb regeneration before next week."

"No one can say for sure until the very last moment!"

Kurenai's expression changed slightly, and she snorted softly.

"Then we'll see."

Kitazawa finished his breakfast and was about to speak when he heard a knock on the door.

"I'm going to wash the dishes."

Kurenai Yuhi offered, "Go and see who it is, then you can go to the Hokage Building to participate in the Jonin election."

"Ah."

Kitazawa arrived at the door.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Standing outside the door was Yakushi Kabuto.

Good morning, Dou.

Kitazawa nodded slightly.

He's been busy with the Anbu these past two days and hasn't seen Yakushi Kabuto and the others.

"Teacher Kitazawa, I'll go to the Hokage Building with you."

Yakushi Kabuto explained his purpose.

Even though he's a Jonin, he still has to participate in the Jonin election.

"Let's go then."

Kitazawa closed the door and walked with him toward the Hokage Building.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

As they walked, Kabuto asked, "When will our team have a new mission?"

"You're already looking to do missions again after only a week's rest?"

Kitazawa glanced at him and said, "You guys are even more diligent than me."

"We want to improve our strength as quickly as possible by doing tasks, so that we won't become a burden to Kitazawa-sensei."

Kabuto's answer remained perfectly watertight.

"I recently became the captain of the Dark Guard."

Kitazawa's heart stirred, and he said.

"The Chief of the Dark Guard?"

Surprised, Kabuto quickly said, "Congratulations, Kitazawa-sensei."

The Captain-Commander of the Anbu is a high-ranking member of Konoha Village and a trusted confidant of the Hokage, representing a bright future.

“You are a Jonin, and although Izumi and Torane are Chunin, their strength far surpasses that of Chunin. You are both qualified to join the Anbu.”

Kitazawa explained, "After joining the Dark Division, you will form a small team and can freely accept missions."

"Then let's listen to Kitazawa-sensei."

Kabuto agreed without hesitation.

It's all about completing tasks, so it doesn't matter where you are.

Moreover, the missions of the Dark Division are even more demanding.

Of course, the rewards will be even greater.

Kitazawa stroked his chin.

He had a task of cultivating four close confidants.

His initial idea was to select suitable candidates through recruitment, but he just realized that it didn't have to be that complicated.

Kurenai Yuhi, Kabuto Yakushi, Izumi Uchiha, and Torune Aburame make exactly four.

Moreover, they were already quite familiar with each other, which was much faster than training from scratch.

But I don't know how the system determines trusted confidants.

Is it about her level of loyalty to him? Or the amount of things she has done for him?

Kitazawa wasn't quite sure, but he'd train him first.

Of course, if there are other candidates, he can train them as well.

After all, the more trusted confidants the better.

There's no need to limit yourself to the four options provided by the system.

Kitazawa suddenly thought of Orochimaru.

He did have quite a few close confidants, such as Kaguya Kimimaro.

He thought the Corpse Bone Pulse bloodline limit was really cool in his previous life.

Unfortunately, Kaguya Kimimaro has most likely been abducted by Orochimaru.

"Kitazawa!"

Matt Kay's voice came from not far away.

Kitazawa looked up and saw him, Kakashi Hatake, and Asuma Sarutobi.
"Kitazawa".

As Might Guy approached, he asked, "I heard from Asuma that the Anbu is recruiting recently?"

"You want to join the Dark Side?"

Kitazawa asked with a strange look on his face.

"How about it? Can I do it?"

Might Guy gave a thumbs up and said, "I'd dedicate my youth to the Dark Side!"

Behind him, Sarutobi Asuma was desperately trying to wink at Kitazawa.

It's clear that he has already rejected Matt Kay.

In fact, in the original work, Might Guy applied to join the Anbu and Root, but neither Hiruzen Sarutobi nor Danzo Shimura agreed.

"You can register first."

Kitazawa said tactfully.

"Great!"

Matt Kay was very excited when he heard this.

"Kakashi, are you going back to the Anbu?"

Kitazawa changed the subject and asked.

"No, I'm fine being a teacher."

Kakashi Hatake looked at him, a sense of emotion welling up inside him.

Kitazawa becoming the captain of the Anbu was something Sarutobi Asuma just told them.

He never expected that Kitazawa, who was originally unremarkable, would have such an amazing status and strength in less than two years.

He was hailed as a genius, a rare talent in Konoha, at the age of six when he was a Chunin and at twelve when he was a Jonin.

But he felt that Kitazawa's progress in the past two years was even more terrifying.

Is being a teacher really that great?

Sarutobi Asuma said thoughtfully, "Speaking of which, my old man told me before that I should become a team leader in a few years."

"Is it bringing a new generation of Ino-Shika-Cho?

Kakashi Hatake suddenly thought of something and asked.

"you know too?"

Sarutobi Asuma raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Who doesn't know the relationship between your Sarutobi clan and the Ino-Shika-Cho trio?"

Kitazawa countered with a question.

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

Matt Kay scratched his head and asked, puzzled.

"It seems there are still some people who don't know."

Sarutobi Asuma smiled and gave Might Guy a brief explanation.

In short, the Sarutobi clan is a witness to the alliance between the Ino-Shika-Cho clans.

"We're here. Let's go inside and talk."

Kitazawa pushed open the door and walked into the conference room.

They arrived early, and the meeting room wasn't full; only about a third of the Jonin were there.

"Lord Kitazawa."

Many Jonin greeted him when they saw him.

Kitazawa's current status and identity are worthy of the title 'Master'. "Kitazawa".

Fugaku Uchiha, who was sitting in the first row, turned his head and looked at him.

"Chief Fugaku."

Kitazawa stepped forward and greeted him.

"Kitazawa, have you gotten the results of your secret service's recruitment?"

Fugaku Uchiha forced a kind smile and said, "There are quite a few Uchiha ninja who want to do their part for Konoha Village."

Don't do that, it's scary.

Kitazawa suppressed his inner complaints and said, "It's not over yet. Because there are a lot of people who signed up this time, it will take some time to conduct the assessment."

"a lot of?"

Fugaku Uchiha felt a chill run down his spine.

"Ah."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "All the major ninja clans have some."

He wasn't lying to Fugaku Uchiha about that.

If even the Uchiha and Hyuga clans are so enthusiastic, then the Ino-Shika-Cho clan and the Aburame clan are naturally not going to fall behind.

"That definitely needs to be thoroughly assessed."

Fugaku Uchiha felt a sense of irritation, something he hadn't experienced in a long time.

Why weren't these ninja clans so eager to join when Hiruzen Sarutobi was Hokage?

Now everyone is jumping out to compete with the Uchiha clan for the spots.

But Fugaku Uchiha was still confident.

After all, in terms of strength, the Uchiha clan is the number one ninja clan.

nine in the morning.

Apart from the Jonin who have missions, all the Jonin of Konoha Village have arrived.

Kitazawa, Kakashi Hatake, Might Guy, and Kabuto Yakushi sat in the third row.

In fact, given his status as the captain of the Anbu and the vice principal of the Ninja Academy, he was qualified to sit in the first row.

However, he didn't care; it didn't matter where he sat.

The door was pushed open.

Tsunade walked in.

Behind her were two Hokage advisors, Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane.

Tsunade glanced around the conference room, her gaze lingering on Kitazawa for an extra half second.

The image of that kiss involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

"Shikaku, begin voting."

Tsunade shook her head and said.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Nara Shikaku stood up and began distributing the special tickets.

"Will Lady Tsunade preside over this Jonin election?"

Kitazawa raised an eyebrow and asked.

Kakashi Hatake was taken aback by what he heard, and he also sensed something subtle.

Logically, the Jonin election is to elect the next Hokage, so it should be presided over by the previous Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

With Tsunade being one of the targets of the Jonin election, it felt like a given that she was in charge of the process.

Kitazawa quickly obtained the ticket and pen.

He picked up a pen and wrote Tsunade's name on it.

You can actually write other people's names, including your own.

According to Konoha Village's rules, Jonin can vote for anyone, and whoever receives more than half the votes will become Hokage.

After writing their ballots, they walked up one by one according to their seating order and placed their ballots in the ballot box.

Mitokado En and Utatane Koharu were in charge of counting the votes.

"I will now announce the results."

Nara Shikaku received the final total votes from Mitokado Homura and said, "Lady Tsunade received the most votes."

No surprises there.

No one was surprised at all.

"The villagers will vote tomorrow."

Tsunade stood up and said, "Shikaku will be in charge, and the Anbu and various ninja clans will send people to maintain order."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Everyone answered in unison.

"Meeting dismissed."

Tsunade waved her hand and left the meeting room without hesitation.

"Lady Tsunade really doesn't talk much."

Sarutobi Asuma said with a smile, "If it were my old man, he would talk all morning before the meeting could end."

"Aren't you afraid the Hokage will be angry if you talk about him like that?"

Kitazawa patted him on the shoulder and asked.

"He won't be Hokage anymore soon, it's okay."

Sarutobi Asuma said nonchalantly.

A loving father and a filial son.

Kitazawa chuckled to himself.

"I'm going back to school. Do as you please."

Kakashi Hatake stood up and said.

Although it's Monday and he doesn't have class today, he's already used to being at the ninja academy.

Furthermore, he also needs to study the Lightning Release: Kirin.

After such a long period of research, success is not far away.

"Kakashi, wanna have a youthful run?"

Might Guy's teeth flashed as he said, "It's a race to see who gets to the Ninja Academy first."

"Not interested in."

Kakashi Hatake shook his head and said.

"Asma."

Kitazawa introduced, "This is my student, Yakushi Kabuto."

"Asuma-senpai."

Kabuto immediately greeted him.

I've heard of you.

Sarutobi Asuma said with a smile, "An excellent medical ninja and wind-style ninja."

During the war between Konoha and Kirigakure, not only Kitazawa became famous, but also Kabuto Yakushi and Torune Aburame.

Although he is far less famous than Kitazawa, he is still much more famous than the average Jonin.

"Help my three students complete the formalities today and get them into the Dark Division."

Kitazawa revealed his purpose.

"no problem."

Sarutobi Asuma readily agreed.

The minimum requirement for joining the Anbu is being a Chunin.

Kabuto Yakushi, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha naturally meet the criteria.

Furthermore, given that he was Kitazawa's student, there was absolutely no reason for him to refuse.

"Kabuto, go and call Torune and Izumi here, then we'll go to the Anbu together to find Asuma."

Kitazawa gave the instructions.

"Yes, Kitazawa-sensei."

The pharmacist nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll be leaving now. See you next time."

After leaving the conference room, Kitazawa went to the Hokage's office.

"Come in."

Tsunade looked up when she heard the knocking.

Upon seeing that it was Kitazawa, a strange feeling welled up inside her, but it quickly disappeared.

"Kitazawa, what do you want?"

Tsunade said with a calm expression.

"Lady Tsunade, do you remember what I told you yesterday at noon?"

Kitazawa asked with a smile.

"forget!"

Tsunade paused, glared at him, and said, "Just say what you want to say!"

"This is my gift to you."

Kitazawa took out a scroll and handed it to her, saying...

"Medical ninjutsu that regenerates severed limbs?"

Tsunade opened the scroll, glanced at it, and said with some surprise, "You actually succeeded?"

"lucky."

Kitazawa said modestly.

"There's no such thing as luck when it comes to S-rank medical ninjutsu."

Tsunade examined it carefully.

"I have to thank Lady Tsunade for her help and guidance."

Kitazawa smiled and said.

"I didn't do anything; it's mainly thanks to you."

After reading it, Tsunade let out a breath and said, "With this medical ninjutsu, many ninjas can be reborn."

Her words were not an exaggeration at all.

For a ninja, losing an arm or a leg is tantamount to reducing their fighting power by more than half.

If both hands are severed, one loses the qualification to be a ninja.

"This kind of ninjutsu cannot be simply stored in a warehouse like other ninjutsu."

Tsunade pondered for a moment and said, "I think we should promote it and let medical ninjas and Jonin try to learn it."

"That's what I think too."

Kitazawa agreed.

The greater the impact of the ninjutsu of limb regeneration, the richer the system reward he will ultimately receive.

He became increasingly curious about what kind of reward he would receive.

"You are very generous."

Tsunade looked at Kitazawa, sensing her surprise.

Such a precious medical ninjutsu being handed over directly is extremely rare in Konoha's history.

"Since Lady Tsunade has become Hokage, I naturally have to send her a congratulatory gift."

Kitazawa said seriously.

"Have you already mastered the medical ninjutsu of limb regeneration?"

Tsunade looked away and asked.

"Ah."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "There shouldn't be any problems."

"After the Hokage succession ceremony, you should perform an operation at Konoha Hospital, and all the medical ninjas and Jonin should watch."

Tsunade thought for a moment and said.

She did this both to promote the medical ninjutsu of limb regeneration and to build momentum for Kitazawa.

"Thank you, Lady Tsunade."

Kitazawa's eyes lit up.

This is a great idea!

"I estimate that ninjas from other villages will come to us for help, such as Kirigakure."

Tsunade suddenly thought of something and said, "We can help treat their wounded and charge them for it."

In this war, Kirigakure suffered many wounded soldiers who lost limbs or arms.

"That's certainly possible."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "I believe they are willing to pay the corresponding price."

Who would you like to perform your first surgery on?

Tsunade put down the ninjutsu scroll and asked.

"Senior Kosuke."

Kitazawa replied.

"Your choice is excellent."

Tsunade thought for a moment and said, "He is famous enough and meets the requirements, so he can play a promotional role to the greatest extent."

"As expected of Lady Tsunade, she can think of so many things."

Kitazawa praised.

"Okay, stop praising everything."

Tsunade rolled her eyes at him and asked, "You've handed over such an important medical ninjutsu, what reward do you want?"

"do not know."

Kitazawa shook his head and said, "I'll owe you for now. I'll contact you again if I need anything."

"also."

Tsunade can understand Kitazawa.

He certainly doesn't lack anything.

It's actually similar to the old Sannin of Konoha; they had too many merits, and Konoha Village couldn't reciprocate them in kind.

However, you can keep it for your family or students to use later.

"Then I'll take my leave first."

Kitazawa bowed slightly, then turned and walked out.

"Kitazawa".

Tsunade watched his retreating figure, brushed a strand of golden hair behind her ear, and said, "I really like this gift, thank you."

"It seems Lady Tsunade remembers very well."

Kitazawa waved and said, "See you next time."

"..."

Tsunade's expression immediately became somewhat unnatural.

Kitazawa left the Hokage's office and didn't return to the Anbu, but went home instead.

With Sarutobi Asuma in charge of the Anbu, he doesn't need to worry about it for now.

Now that his medical ninjutsu of limb regeneration has come to an end, he must begin his journey of learning Wood Release.

Kitazawa arrived at the open space behind the house.

The first Wood Release ninjutsu he learned was Wood Release: Wood Barrier.

This is a defensive Wood Release ninjutsu.

Its effect is to summon a row of wooden stakes that bend to form an archway to protect itself.

The day's practice has ended.

on Tuesday.

Kitazawa welcomed back the long-awaited school day.

After having breakfast, he went to the ninja school.

"Welcome back, Kitazawa-sensei!"

All the students in the gifted class arrived at the playground half an hour early, and upon seeing him, they all shouted in unison.

Kitazawa was slightly taken aback, but also somewhat moved.

These students are really good.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Naruto ran up to him and asked curiously, "Is the Third Hokage retiring? I saw the villagers voting on the way."

Hinata Hyuga, Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame, and others also gathered around.

Since it wasn't time for class yet, and they were all very curious about the new Hokage.

"Ah."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "The Hokage is getting old, so he has decided to retire."

Who is the new Hokage?

Kiba Inuzuka couldn't help but ask.

"It must be Lady Tsunade!"

Yamanaka Ino exclaimed with admiration, "She's the first female Hokage!"

"She's also the first female ninja to become Hokage as a medical ninja!"

Sakura Haruno also seemed very excited.

"It is indeed Lady Tsunade."

Kitazawa smiled and said.

"Looks like I can only compete for the Sixth Hokage title!"

Naruto Uzumaki said with a face full of fighting spirit.

"Are you going to compete with Kitazawa-sensei for the Sixth Hokage position?"

Nara Shikamaru's lazy voice rang out.

"what?"

Naruto's expression froze, and his eyes widened.

Sasuke Uchiha, who was about to speak, shut his mouth in time.

"Considering his age, Kitazawa-sensei really should be the Sixth Hokage!"

Yamanaka Ino's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "Then I'll be the Hokage's student from now on!"

"What are you thinking about?"

Kitazawa tapped her forehead and said, "No one can predict the future."

With so many people giving their "poisonous" predictions, who can withstand that?
"The Seventh Hokage would also be acceptable!"

Naruto Uzumaki changed his tune.

His dream is to become Hokage, but he didn't say which generation.

"Alright, stop thinking about these things and get back to training."

Kitazawa paused for a moment, then said, "Kiba, come with me."

"Yes!"

Kiba Inuzuka immediately became excited.

Because last week, Kitazawa promised him that he would give him a new secret technique.

"Your Fang Over Fang and War Stomp are both offensive ninjutsu, but their power is not enough."

Kitazawa looked at Kiba Inuzuka and said, "I'll teach you a secret technique that can be used in conjunction with Cerberus, called Fang Bullet."

The design of the tooth bullet was inspired by the Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique.

Simply put, it involves having Kiba Inuzuka's hellhound form simultaneously unleash three chakra projectiles from its three heads.

Kiba Inuzuka's chakra nature is earth.

Kitazawa originally intended for him to spit out the dirt bomb.

However, he needed to practice Earth Release chakra nature transformation, so he decided to have him learn non-attribute chakra first.

"This is good!"

Kiba Inuzuka's eyes lit up as he spoke.

Just imagining three dog heads spitting out chakra bullets sounds incredibly cool.

"Then study hard."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "Adding chakra properties will further enhance the power of the Fang Bullet."

"Yes!"

Kiba Inuzuka replied earnestly.

Kitazawa taught him for half an hour, then let him practice on his own.

He looked around; the students in the three study groups he led had already begun their training.

After confirming that there were no problems, Kitazawa went to the artificial lake.

There are three people next to the artificial lake.

Kosuke Maruhoshi, Sakura Haruno and Shino Aburame.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Sakura Haruno, who was practicing Water Release techniques, took a moment to greet him.

"Senior Kosuke."

Kitazawa asked, "Are you free next Monday?"

"No."

Maruhoshi Kosuke asked in confusion, "Is there something you need me to do?"

"There is indeed one thing."

Kitazawa asked with a smile, "Do you want to have a healthy left leg?"

"What do you mean?"

Maruhoshi Kosuke frowned and asked.

"I have created a medical ninjutsu that allows severed limbs to regenerate."

Kitazawa explained.

"what?"

Maruhoshi Kosuke suddenly froze.

"How can this be?"

Sakura Haruno also showed a shocked expression.

She is now considered a semi-medical ninja, so she understands the significance of limb regeneration medical ninjutsu.

This is simply a revolution in medical ninjutsu!

"How about it? Want to try it?"

Kitazawa paused for a moment, then said, "If you'd like, come see me at Konoha Hospital on Monday."

"Of course I do!"

Maruboshi Kosuke snapped out of his daze, still very excited.

No disabled person doesn't want to regain their health, and he is no exception.

"Congratulations, Mr. Kosuke!"

Sakura Haruno quickly offered her blessings.

"I never imagined that one day I would become a fully-fledged ninja."

Maruhoshi Kosuke said with emotion, "Thank you, Kitazawa."

"nothing."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "This is what a medical ninja should do."

After reaching an agreement with Maruboshi Kosuke, Kitazawa found a secluded spot to practice Wood Release.

Kitazawa's life returned to normal.

Unlike before, in addition to attending classes, he also had to go to the Dark Division from time to time.

Saturday has arrived.

Konoha Village welcomed its most lively day yet.

Today is the Hokage succession ceremony.

As for the villagers' vote, the results were released yesterday.

Without any suspense, Tsunade won by an overwhelming majority of votes.

With that, she completed the three procedures and became the Fifth Hokage.

Early in the morning, the Konoha Police Department and the Anbu were already busy.

The Hokage succession ceremony is of utmost importance and absolutely cannot go wrong.

The Konoha Police Department is responsible for the security of Konoha, while the Anbu is responsible for the ninjas of other villages.

After all, today is a grand event.

In addition to the ninjas and villagers of Konoha, there were also the daimyo, nobles, and merchants of the Land of Fire.

It's a mixed bag, making it difficult for ninjas from other villages to infiltrate.

The secret service office.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Kabuto Yakushi walked in and said, "Lord Jiraiya has returned to the village and is currently in the Hokage's office."

"I understand, you can go and get back to work."

Kitazawa raised an eyebrow and said.

After Kabuto Yakushi left, he went to the Hokage's office.

"Tsunade, I'm very curious, what method did the old man use to get you to agree to become Hokage?"

Jiraiya knew Tsunade well.

I had always been very resistant to becoming Hokage.

Especially after developing hemophobia, he harbored a deep hatred for the Hokage.

Tsunade fell silent.

Her becoming Hokage has little to do with Hiruzen Sarutobi.

To be honest, Kitazawa bears the main responsibility.

Tsunade paused, suddenly realizing what she was thinking.

The Hokage's office door wasn't closed properly, and she saw Kitazawa through the crack.

"come in."

Tsunade spoke.

"Who?"

Jiraiya subconsciously turned his head.

"Tsunade-sama."

Kitazawa walked in. "Lord Jiraiya."

"So you were your student, Kitazawa."

Jiraiya exclaimed, "I've heard of you all over the Land of Earth. You already have the flair of Minato."

“He is different from Minato.”

Tsunade said instinctively.

I mean fame.

Jiraiya smiled, looked at her, and said, "In terms of recruiting students, you're almost catching up with me."

What are you doing in the Land of Earth?

Tsunade changed the subject and asked.

"To gather intelligence."

Jiraiya coughed twice and said, "You still haven't answered my previous question."

There is no answer.

Tsunade glanced at Kitazawa and said, "Take it if you want, don't take it if you don't."

"That's really like you."

Jiraiya praised you, saying, "But you are very suitable to be Hokage. Since you have become Hokage, then do a good job in this role."

He shared the same thought as Hiruzen Sarutobi, fearing that Tsunade would run away.

"You should have been the Hokage."

Tsunade paused, then said, "Konoha is now in a new phase. If you stay..."

"Feel sorry."

Jiraiya interrupted her, saying, "Konoha Village has enough of you. I have my own things to do."

He was referring to the search for the prophesied child.

Disappointment flashed in Tsunade's eyes, but she didn't say anything more.

She had already anticipated this answer.

But that’s okay.

The current Konoha Village doesn't actually need another Jiraiya.

Kitazawa's appearance filled the gap in Konoha Village's lack of high-level combat power.

"Old man!"

Jiraiya suddenly sensed something and turned around to call out.

"Do you even know how to come back?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with some dissatisfaction, "I haven't settled the score with you for leaving Konoha without saying goodbye last time."

He was referring to the last Chinese New Year.

"Now that Tsunade has become Hokage, I definitely have to come back."

Jiraiya smiled nonchalantly and said, "On such a fine day, it's not good for the old man to get angry."

"Forget it, I can't be bothered to argue with you."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said quite frankly, "Anyway, Tsunade is the Hokage now, so she'll have a headache."

"What's there to worry about?"

Tsunade casually said, "Just pretend he doesn't exist."

Jiraiya was startled, but not knowing what to say, he could only scratch his head.

He secretly reassured himself that, given Tsunade's personality, this was definitely a joke.

"The lord has arrived, let's go."

Hiruzen Sarutobi reminded him.

"Ah."

Tsunade stood up and put on the white divine robe that had been made for her.

The back is printed with the words "Fifth Hokage" and so on.

But instead of wearing the Hokage hat, she gave it to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The four people went to the rooftop.

The plaza in front of the Hokage Building was already packed with people.

Tsunade could hear the commotion even before she saw them.

She walked forward step by step.

Tsunade's gaze fell upon the Hokage Rock in the distance.

There have already been two Hokage from the Senju clan, and now it's her turn.

Tsunade walked to the very edge.

The crowd in the square immediately erupted in cheers.

Tsunade becoming Hokage was a popular and well-deserved decision.

It was difficult to find anyone in the entire Hidden Leaf Village who opposed her.

The only one who opposed her, Danzo Shimura, has already gone to the Pure Land.

"I hereby announce that the Fifth Hokage of Konoha Village is Tsunade."

The daimyo of the Land of Fire shouted loudly.

"I'm entrusting Konoha to you, Tsunade."

Hiruzen Sarutobi stepped forward, handed her the Hokage hat, and said...

"I will try my best, teacher."

Tsunade stopped calling him "old man" and started using the more formal title "teacher."

She took the Hokage hat and put it on her head, then looked at the crowd in the square.

"Say something."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.

Starting today, he is completely retired and no longer needs to work.

"I am Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage!"

Tsunade raised her hand, clenched her fist, and said.

The cheers erupted like a tidal wave.

Konoha Village has ushered in a new beginning.
