He knew nothing about it, yet he proudly equated his dream with his sister's.

Naruto's eyes gradually welled up with tears.

"Naruto, don't overthink it, Zero loves you very much."

Jiraiya comforted him.

In their view, Naruto had indeed become a constraint on Rei Amamiya.

But none of them are Rei Amamiya himself.

In Rei Amamiya's eyes, perhaps all of this is different.

"Ah."

Naruto answered sullenly.

"What will happen if Tsunade doesn't become Hokage?"

Suddenly, Muzan's voice came from inside the room.

Naruto: "Muzan, you weren't asleep either?"

"Ah."

Muzan's voice came.

Jiraiya then looked at Muzan and said nonchalantly, "Even if Tsunade quits, there's still Zero, isn't there?"

He never had any hope of persuading Tsunade to become Hokage.

"But didn't Granny Tsunade say that my sister didn't want to be Hokage?"

Naruto asked, puzzled.

Who said he didn't want to be one anymore?

He wants to be one!

Muzan shouted in his heart.

At this point, Jiraiya crossed his hands behind his head and looked at the ceiling: "Naruto, you don't understand. For Zero, Konoha has become an inescapable responsibility. Even if she doesn't become Hokage, she will protect Konoha just like a Hokage!"

Naruto pursed his lips. So, will his sister never be able to live the ordinary life she dreams of?

"Besides, Tsunade won't become Hokage."

Jiraiya said with certainty.

With Rei Amamiya around, Tsunade felt more at ease than anyone else.

"But my sister wants Granny Tsunade to become Hokage!"

Naruto remembered what Jiraiya had told Tsunade and immediately spoke up.

Jiraiya couldn't help but chuckle: "What Zero cares about is whether Tsunade returns to Konoha or not, not whether Tsunade becomes Hokage."

"What do you mean?"

Naruto asked curiously.

Why can't he understand?

Muzan stared at Jiraiya speechlessly.

What's wrong with this person?

Why do I need to analyze this randomly?

However, after careful consideration, Muzan realized that Jiraiya's words weren't entirely wrong.

If Tsunade returns to Konoha, it will be much easier to absorb her chakra.

"Tsunade is Zero's elder, and Zero misses Tsunade very much."

Jiraiya explained.

Even though Zero has grown into a powerful ninja who intimidates the ninja world, in Jiraiya and Tsunade's eyes, Zero is still the little girl who longed for family affection.

Therefore, for Zero, all she needs is for Tsunade to stay by her side.

Moreover, Konoha Village has three elders: Koharu Utatane, Homura Mitokado, and Danzo Shimura. Compared to these old foxes, Zero is too young and too weak.

Tsunade has to go back and help Zero.

Jiraiya knew that if he tried to persuade Tsunade in this way, she would soften her heart.

"I see."

Naruto said firmly.

He was attached to his sister because she was his family.

The older sister is attached to Granny Tsunade because Granny Tsunade is her family.

He will definitely bring Granny Tsunade back!

Jiraiya closed his eyes and hurriedly urged, "Go to sleep! We still need to go see Tsunade tomorrow!"

"Ok!"

Naruto immediately closed his eyes.

Soon after, Naruto's steady breathing could be heard from inside the room.

Naruto has a powerful skill: he can fall asleep in a second.

No matter the time or place, he can fall asleep anytime, anywhere, as long as he wants to.

After Naruto fell asleep, Jiraiya sensed that Muzan beside him was still awake.

Jiraiya, as if struck by a sudden thought, asked, "Muzan, now that you know about Zero's past, what are your thoughts?"

He hoped that Muzan could understand Zero better.

Muzan: "Suitable."

The two words, which seemed to have no beginning or end, left Jiraiya completely baffled.

Jiraiya wanted to ask more, but then another steady breath filled the room.

He could only suppress his doubts.

the next day.

The sun was shining brightly.

Sunlight filled the room.

Naruto's blanket fell to the ground, and he lay on the tatami mat, snoring softly.

He was awakened by Jiraiya's large hand.

Naruto let out a howl and jumped up from the tatami mat, his head almost hitting the ceiling.

By the time he realized what was happening, Muzan and the Perverted Sage were already fully dressed.

Thinking that he had something important to do today, Naruto rushed into the bathroom like a tornado.

Give me a minute!

One minute later, Muzan and his two companions arrived at the hotel lobby on time.

Muzan scrutinized Naruto's messy hair and eyes covered in boogers.

Naruto only went to the toilet for a minute, right?

"set off!"

Jiraiya waved his hand in front of him.

Naruto immediately rushed forward.

Muzan and Jiraiya followed leisurely behind him.

Where will Granny Tsunade be today?

Naruto suddenly turned back and asked Jiraiya.

Jiraiya uttered two words: "Gambling den".

Gambling den.

There wasn't a trace of Tsunade.

Muzan and Naruto looked at Jiraiya.

Jiraiya scratched his head and chuckled dryly, "Haha, looks like she's moved her base!"

"Let me sense her location."

Muzan didn't want to follow Jiraiya around like a headless fly anymore.

Jiraiya looked at Muzan with surprise in his eyes.

Muzan closed his eyes, pretended to search for a while, then opened them and said to Jiraiya, "Found it."

Naruto: "Muzan is still the best!"

Jiraiya: "..."

He followed behind Muzan and Naruto.

Jiraiya stared thoughtfully at Muzan's retreating figure.

As he entered the alley, Jiraiya's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly walked up to Muzan and Naruto.

The wall in the middle of the alley was violently destroyed, leaving it in ruins.

A deep groove appeared on the other side of the wall, with spiderweb-like cracks distributed around it.

"It's Tsunade!"

Jiraiya concluded.

"Her chakra is in that direction."

Muzan pointed to the grassy area beyond the ruins of the wall.

"besides……"

Muzan paused for a moment, then added, "Orochimaru's chakra."

Jiraiya's expression turned serious, and he immediately ran in the direction Muzan pointed.

Muzan and Naruto followed behind him.

"Orochimaru……"

Naruto seemed to realize something, turned to look at Muzan, and asked, "Is it Orochimaru who attacked Sasuke and killed the old man?"

Muzan nodded.

Chapter 455 I will return to Konoha!!!

Kabuto's hands were covered in blue light.

The sharp chakra scalpel had just cut open Tsunade's muscles.

Tsunade knelt on the ground, her body stiff. Her thighs and arms twitched uncontrollably, as if the muscles in her thighs and arms had been severed. She had no control over her body at all.

However, what truly rendered her completely immobile was the bloodstains on the ground.

Drop by drop...

The blood pooled in front of her, forming a glaring stain.

Her vision was suddenly filled with crimson.

I can't see anything.

Dizziness assaulted her brain.

She clenched her teeth tightly, and a strong taste of blood filled her mouth.

She looked up and saw Orochimaru standing not far away, behind Kabuto Yakushi, giving her a knowing smile.
