I just want to be lazy, I was forced to become Hokage

Has Tsunade awakened the blood inheritance limit of the Senju clan? !

Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately doubted his ears.

But before he could launch more detailed inquiries.

Tsunade, who seemed to have thrown away a heavy burden, waved directly to Nara Langui, and then left Hokage Yanyan without looking back.

For her, tonight's "explanation" is already over!

Tsunade had no interest in explaining to Hiruzen Sarutobi how her [Wood Release] came about.

At least she isn't interested at all now.

Seeing Tsunade's no-nonsense performance, Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his right hand and moved his lips a few times, but in the end he still didn't say a word.

After the exchange and conversation just now, how could Sarutobi Hiruzen not see that this disciple was now completely disappointed in him?

Even if he asked Tsunade what was going on with that wooden escape now, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to get a positive answer from the other party.

The other ninjas in Konoha didn't dare not give him face as the Third Hokage.

But the princess of the Senju clan doesn't need to care about the reputation of Hiruzen Sarutobi!

Extinguishing the thought of asking for trouble, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, gently twirling the goatee on his chin, and carefully thought about the impact that Tsunade's awakening of Wood Release would have on the current Konoha...

'wrong! The most urgent task is to confirm whether Tsunade has really awakened the power of wood escape! ’

Sarutobi Hiruzen almost broke several beards.

'Although it is unlikely that Tsunade is playing tricks on this issue,... there is still a Nara by her side after all! ’

It was not difficult for Hiruzen Sarutobi to confirm whether Tsunade had awakened Wood Release.

After all, Tsunade had just "reported" to him, and she had already fought with Orochimaru.

Considering what Tsunade just said...

The probability of her using Wood Release in the battle with Orochimaru is extremely high!

It is impossible for ninjas with the strength level of Tsunade and Orochimaru to fight around Konoha Village without causing any environmental impact.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately used the teleportation technique and quickly returned from Hokage Yanyan to the Hokage Building. He was planning to send ANBU to investigate the situation around Konoha Village.

At this moment, matters related to Orochimaru had been completely ignored by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Although Tsunade clearly pointed out just now that she cut off a pair of Orochimaru's arms during the battle...

Although cutting off a pair of arms is a devastating blow to any ninja...

Although Orochimaru will most likely be completely defeated after this battle...

But in Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart, he didn't have much trust in Orochimaru, his disciple.

As early as when he accepted Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade as his disciples, Sarutobi Hiruzen had already discovered something was wrong with Orochimaru.

He is obviously just a young child, but there is strong ambition in his eyes, and even... malice!

Especially in recent years, Sarutobi Hiruzen has increasingly felt that Orochimaru is drifting away from the growth path he expected.

One of his hands was broken by Tsunade. I hope Orochimaru can use this ordeal to eliminate the malice in his heart...

Sarutobi Hiruzen completely put Orochimaru-related questions behind him.

However, before the ANBU ninjas who received the mission set off from the Hokage Building.

The information sent from Platycodon City was sent to the Hokage's office first.

After confirming the location of the battle between Tsunade and Orochimaru, Sarutobi Hiruzen left the Hokage Building without stopping and rushed to the dense forest on the outskirts of Kikyo City in person.

The Third Hokage's battlefield insight is far beyond that of ordinary ninjas.

After arriving at the suburban forest of Platycodon City, Hiruzen Sarutobi stood in a messy jungle clearing, and his brain quickly simulated and restored the battle process that had happened here before.

Due to the complete asymmetry of information.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not consider the two words "Nara Langui" and "Wood Release" together, but closely linked Wood Release and Tsunade.

After a quick mental simulation, Sarutobi Hiruzen was completely convinced of Tsunade's "awakening" of Wood Release.

Especially after he witnessed with his own eyes the wooden dragon that was still stained with bright red blood and with dense wooden thorns blooming on its body, the impression of "Tsunade's Awakening of Wood Release" took root deeply in his heart.

"This is... the first-generation master's Wood Dragon Technique, and also mixed with some other wood escape form changes!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen watched the spiked wooden dragon that had shrunk a lot due to the loss of its caster at close range, with a strange color flashing in his eyes.

"Also...the first-generation master's wooden man technique, there are also traces of the activities of giant humanoid creatures here.

"Two S-level Wood Release secret ninjutsu, Tsunade's training in Wood Release is far more powerful than I imagined!

"The more important point is that Tsunade is no longer afraid of blood!"

The error in intelligence greatly deflected Sarutobi Hiruzen's assessment of Tsunade's strength.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had no idea about the battle process at all, raised Tsunade's overall strength to the best of his imagination.

"The hemophobia has been cured, and Tsunade's strength has returned to its peak level..."

"After awakening the Wood Release, Tsunade's overall level is stronger than before..."

He was already a famous Sannin, but now he has gained the Wood Release of the Senju Clan. This is simply a powerful addition to a tiger!

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly considered another issue at this moment.

When the idea of ​​"passing the throne" first appeared in his mind, Hiruzen Sarutobi was not thinking about anyone else, but Jiraiya.

Origin, strength, status, fame...

Even in the aspect of "lust", Jiraiya and Sarutobi Hiruzen can be said to be carved from the same mold.

It's just that Jiraiya is bright and cool, while Sarutobi Hiruzen is dark and mean.

But after some secret exchanges, Jiraiya completely rejected the invitation to become Hokage, and instead elected his disciple, Namikaze Minato.

To be honest.

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart, Namikaze Minato and Jiraiya, no matter who is the fourth generation Hokage, have almost the same effect.

And until Namikaze Minato became famous in the Third Ninja War, his majesty was even close to surpassing that of his master...

Only then did Sarutobi Hiruzen seriously consider letting Namikaze Minato serve as the new "Konoha Patriarch".

As for his two original disciples?

Orochimaru ignored it.

Tsunade, everything is fine, but the "phobia of blood" is too troublesome.

Konoha could accept a Hokage who always acted as the mascot in the Hokage building.

But I will never accept a Hokage who completely loses his power after seeing a little blood!

But now?

The situation seems to have changed a little unexpectedly.

Tsunade not only erased her psychological weakness, but also awakened the blood inheritance limit of the Senju clan!

What could be more in line with the identity of Hokage than Wood Release?

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally began to consider the possibility of Tsunade becoming the Fourth Hokage.

He did know that Tsunade-hime had been "active" recently.

Can you recommend that boy from Nara to become Hokage?

Even for a war hero like Namikaze Minato, if he wants to become Hokage, his age is a huge flaw.

Nara Langui wants to fuck Naruto?

Let’s let that kid continue to train for more than ten or twenty years...

But then again.

If Namikaze Minato is running for the fourth generation, age is a flaw that cannot be ignored.

So there is really no problem at all for Tsunade to run for the fourth generation.

The only thing that was somewhat lacking was the credit and prestige that Tsunade gained in the Third Ninja War.

But sitting in the rear and treating the wounded, isn't this a credit?

As for prestige, this kind of thing can also be "expanded" through some small publicity work...

After some consideration, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly discovered that no matter from every angle, Tsunade was a more suitable candidate for the fourth generation than Namikaze Minato.

"I always feel like I've overlooked something..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's brows furrowed tightly, and suddenly he remembered something, and his expression suddenly changed.

"That's right! Tsunade said she was going to deal with Danzo!"
