I am the new Hokage of Konoha.

It's time to deal with them now.

However, before that, we still need to properly resolve the last remaining issues from today's events.

In an instant, Yun Ting's figure disappeared again.

Back home, he went to Maki's bedroom and knocked on the door, saying, "Maki!"

A short while later, footsteps could be heard inside the room.

The door opened, and Maki, dressed in cute bear pajamas, yawned and rubbed her eyes, looking sleepily at Yunting. She lazily said:

"Father, is there something you need from me so late?"

'That's quite a convincing act!'

Looking at his mischievous daughter, Yun Ting chuckled and gave her a sharp rap on the forehead.

"what!"

Instantly, Maki's eyes welled up with tears, and she put on a pitiful expression, saying...

"Did Maki do something to upset Father? Please tell me, Father, and Maki will definitely change!"

Yun Ting chuckled and said irritably, "You had a good time at the Hokage Building tonight, didn't you?"

Boom!

A bolt from the blue struck Maki like a bolt from the blue.

The next second, her face froze, she covered her head with her hands, bent her knees, curled herself into a ball, and crouched down tremblingly.

Seeing this, Yun Ting stepped into the room and closed the door.

A conversation about fatherly love and filial piety between daughters began.

Chapter 337 Tsunade Returns

Yunting and Maki's father-daughter exchange lasted for most of the night, adhering to the friendly spirit of using words rather than fists.

The next day, Maki, who was usually full of energy, had dark circles under her eyes. After knocking on her grandfather's door, she had a long talk with him.

Ultimately, the agreement reached was that Maki could summon her family once a year using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

As for other applications of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, it should not be abused before adulthood unless it is a matter of life and death.

In Yun Ting's view, even if Maki is precocious now, she is not truly mature.

Only after he has fully developed his values ​​and beliefs can he confidently let the other person decide when and where to use the Impure World Reincarnation technique, which pulls the dead into the mortal world.

The rule to summon family members once a year was established with the consent of Hashirama Senju.

Not every dead person lingers in the mortal world; most hope to rest peacefully in the underworld.

However, Hashirama Senju was indeed very fond of Maki.

Since the person in question had agreed, Yun Ting did not object.

After that, Maki and Hashirama Senju continued to play together as always, occasionally joined by Tobirama Senju, whom they hadn't mentioned in a long time.

The latter has recently become obsessed with the path of science. While still alive, he has used his talent, which even Orochimaru has to admire, to overtake Konoha scientists who have accumulated decades of knowledge.

In the field of scientific research, especially in biology, he single-handedly elevated the industry to a new level.

Sometimes we have to admit that true geniuses are of such importance in all walks of life that even a large number of ordinary people cannot reach.

If we were to create a ranking of those who least wanted the first and second generations to leave,

Aside from Maki, the top-ranked group consists of Konoha scientists who already affectionately call Tobirama Senju "Teacher Senju".

However, no matter how unwilling these people were, everything proceeded according to plan.

A week later, after handing over the affairs of the Land of Wind to the new faction of Konoha, Tsunade, who led a group of Konoha ninja back to Konoha, finally met her grandfather after decades.

"grandfather!"

She was no longer the little brat she used to be, and with her own daughter watching the spectacle with amusement right beside her, Tsunade, though excited, didn't do anything rash.

Hashirama Senju didn't notice any of this.

When he first looked at Tsunade, he subconsciously pictured a little Tsunade with two pigtails, happily counting money with him in a gambling den.

"You've grown so much in the blink of an eye, Tsunade!" Hashirama Senju exclaimed, reaching out to pat Tsunade's shoulder excitedly.

Peng!Peng!Peng!

Finally experiencing the feeling of being patted on the shoulder, Tsunade gritted her teeth, forced a smile, and reached out to pat her grandfather's shoulder as well, without returning the favor:

“Grandpa, you look great to see you again! It seems you’re doing well in the underworld.”

As if he couldn't feel the immense force emanating from him, Hashirama Senju, mistaking it for Tsunade's enthusiastic greeting, tightened his grip even further.

"Haha! Not bad, not bad. Especially after taking the time to come back to the human world this time and now that I'm completely at ease with Konoha, my days of hibernation in the underworld will only be more comfortable."

"...Also, being able to see Tsunade grow up, marry a good husband, have a wonderful daughter, and live a happy life, has satisfied my last remaining wish."

After their conversation, Hashirama Senju finally stopped patting his granddaughter's shoulder and, just like when she was a child, opened his broad palm and gently patted her head. He was filled with relief.

Tsunade did not dodge.

Taking a moment to glare fiercely at Maki, who was snickering to herself, she felt a pang of emotion, though she wasn't used to expressing it. She wrung her aching shoulders, then flashed her signature bold smile and said:

"I'm doing well, Grandfather, don't worry. I heard you're going back to the underworld soon, so let's have a happy farewell ceremony while we have this time!"

Tsunade waved her hand.

Maki's eyes lit up as she instantly understood her mother's meaning.

Then, without any communication, the mother and daughter looked directly at Yun Ting in perfect unison.

Yun Ting naturally understood the deeper meaning in his eyes.

Ok.

Just like last time, I see through it but don't say anything.

After saying "I still have work to do," Yun Ting tactfully left first, handing the stage over to three generations of like-minded people.

Sure enough, not long after.

Throughout the gambling dens of Konoha, the familiar laughter of the Senju trio echoed.

"Haha! I wonder how much of the gambling skills I taught you, Tsunade, have you grasped so far?"

"Grandfather, open your eyes wide and see! I have long since surpassed you! Watch me unleash my carnage!"

"No! My dear mother, please have mercy!"

"..."

From that day forward, the legendary name of the "Big Fat Sheep" became increasingly well-known throughout the gambling world.

Even with the legendary "Great Demon King" fighting tirelessly, he couldn't make up for the loopholes created by the "Big Fat Sheep," ultimately resulting in the former returning empty-handed for the first time since venturing into the gambling world.

It's easy to imagine how envious the gamblers were of this big catch.

Later on, many gamblers even traveled thousands of miles to Konoha just to wait for the big fat sheep to transform into a bodhisattva and give them alms.

Regardless of Tsunade's feelings, it objectively boosted the development of Konoha's tourism industry.

Let's get back to the present.

After three generations of grandfather, grandfather, and grandson fought a bloody battle, leaving behind many memories.

Because I simply can't believe Tsunade's incredible, almost supernatural, gambling skills.

Even as the time for parting approached, Hashirama Senju, still looking somewhat dazed, took a deep look at Tsunade and finally understood why the Senju elders had entrusted the Senju assets to the former Yun Ting, rather than someone more qualified. He then joined Tobirama Senju in bidding farewell to those who came to see them off.

Finally, after patting Maki's head, Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju, under everyone's gaze, had their souls released from their impure bodies. They waved to everyone as they rose into the sky, returning to the underworld as their souls emitted dazzling light.

Seeing this, Maki tried to suppress her emotions, but her eyes reddened and she shed tears of reluctance.

Beside her, Tsunade patted Maki's head a few times to comfort her, unusually refraining from teasing her.

The First Hokage and the Second Hokage are ultimately just passersby in the current Konoha.

After a moment of reflection, Konoha, still needing to process the events of the five nations, returned to its busy schedule.

During this time, watching Konoha consolidate its enormous gains, the other nations of the ninja world were either resentful, dejected, or filled with sorrow...

But that's all there is to it.

All they can do now is enjoy these last moments.

The moment the lion of Konoha, having eaten its fill and rested, opens its eyes again, will be the end of everything.

Chapter 338 Orochimaru, that idiot!

The vast majority of people gave in, but there was always a small group who thought of resisting.

In the current ninja world, the only ones who dare to and have any ability to resist are Obito, Black Zetsu, and their small group of demons.

Inside a secret underground base in the Land of Bears, which has not yet been affected by Konoha.

After successfully capturing the Six-Tails in Kirigakure, Obito cautiously fled to this place, which Konoha could not yet reach, after leaving the Land of Water.

He now has a Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed, a Jinchūriki of the Six-Tailed, and a Jinchūriki of the Seven-Tailed.

In addition, the Gedo Mazo has already absorbed the Four-Tails and Five-Tails.

He has collected all the tailed beasts that are available from the outside world.

The rest, unless they force their way into Konoha and face Senju Kumotada's despairing figure, are almost impossible to obtain.

In that case, he was ready to settle down and, while Black Zetsu was out searching for Orochimaru, he and Kijo would perform a technique to allow the Gedo Mazo to absorb the tailed beast chakra from the Jinchuriki's body.

But soon, a series of bad news brought by Black Zetsu caused his expression to change drastically.

First, Kirigakure was attacked and conquered by Konoha just two days after I left.

The speed was faster than I expected.

But this was the inevitable outcome. Apart from the concern that Konoha Teng would likely take action and hunt down the Akatsuki remnants, it didn't have much of an impact.

However, after Black Zetsu revealed that Orochimaru had also been captured by Konoha, Obito could no longer contain himself and abruptly interrupted the Tailed Beast chakra process. His expression was grim as he questioned Black Zetsu:
