Tsunade finally escaped from the Uchiha clan's residence.

 

Not to mention the agreed gambling afterwards. Even the money from the initial 10 billion Ryō transaction, she didn't want it.

 

This made Natsuo very helpless. He really intended to honestly pay the money and make Tsunade happy.

 

Who could have expected... But it has to be said, Tsunade's body is really weak...

 

Ahem!

 

Although Tsunade really can't win money. But Natsuo still planned to send a subsidy of 12 billion Ryō.

 

This made Tsunade, who had escaped back to the Hokage Tower in Konoha, breathe a sigh of relief. Konoha is really in need of money, it's not bad at all. This helped her a lot.

 

"Just why is it 12 billion?" Tsunade was a bit confused.

 

10 billion can still be considered as the previous transaction between herself and Natsuo, so what about the remaining 2 billion? Is it because of what happened at the Uchiha clan residence?

 

Tsunade's expression suddenly turned unfriendly.

 

...

 

Land of Rain, Amegakure...

 

"The start of the Fourth Shinobi World War is inevitable, we just have to watch as all the shinobi villages attack each other. When they are exhausted, we will collect the nine Bijū." Obito took a deep breath. "This will make our actions much easier."

 

"Mm." Pain nodded slightly.

 

The ones who benefit the most from war are mercenaries like them, right?

 

In the original story of the Naruto Series, the main reason why the Fourth Shinobi World War did not start immediately was because of Orochimaru's manipulation. He decisively killed the Fourth Kazekage, leaving Sunagakure without a leader and unable to start a war.

 

Since they were unable to start a war, they had no choice but to submit to Konoha.

 

At that time, Tsunade, who had just taken office, was also decisive. Knowing that Konoha was weak, he did not take advantage of Sunagakure, preventing them from betraying them again. Instead, she loosened the noose around their necks and improved their political relationship.

 

Her actions turned the strained relationship between Konoha and Sunagakure during the Third Hokage era into a true alliance.

 

Although Konoha and Sunagakure suffered heavy losses in terms of combat power, after the two major nations formed an alliance, Iwagakure and Kumogakure did not dare to start a war even if they wanted to. Even if they united, it would be the same!

 

Kirigakure were still in a period of internal recovery and would not take the initiative to act.

 

This delayed the outbreak of the Fourth Shinobi World War until Obito and Nagato could no longer bear it, and Akatsuki took the initiative to start the war.

 

In reality, if they could watch their enemies wear each other down, who would be willing to strike first?

 

'But for now, the scale of the war is still small. Only Konoha, Sunagakure, and Kumogakure have taken action. Iwagakure and Kirigakure have not yet moved.' Obito squinted his eyes and thought to himself: 'Perhaps I should add some fuel to the fire!'

 

 

[Offspring +1, the comprehensive potential evaluation is 186, and you have gained Chakra +16. Kekkei Genkai: Wood Release.]

 

Uzumaki Yoko gave birth!

 

With the lineage of the Uzumaki clan and Natsuo's sage body, the baby's comprehensive potential has increased once again. This reward further complements Natsuo's potential, plus he can now use Wood Release at the same level as Hashirama.

 

If we don't count the accident with Tsunade, Yoko is probably the woman who has given Natsuo the greatest rewards among his wives.

 

Of course, Uzumaki Yoko is not the only one giving birth.

 

There are also many kunoichi giving birth, contributing to Natsuo's strength.

 

Furthermore during this time, with hard training and the help of the restorative potion 'Revival No. 1', Yakumo's body has finally recovered.

 

Although she is still far behind a Jōnin, she is no longer inferior to an average Chūnin.

 

Yakumo's face turned red, but there was a gleam of excitement in her eyes.

 

"Natsuo-sama, please be gentle..."

 

"Yes, leave it to me..."

 

Meanwhile, on the other side...

 

The Fourth Shinobi World War was in full swing.

 

Although Tsunade had stayed with Natsuo these past few days, she still issued some decrees and replenished the front line with a large amount of manpower.

 

And most of these reinforcements were sent in the direction of Kumogakure.

 

Don't be fooled by the fact that Sunagakure launched the first attack. After occupying a piece of land, they strangely began to build fortresses and improve their defenses, as if they were determined to defend it.

 

The territory they occupied was not very large and posed little threat. But Kumogakure was different.

 

Under the leadership of the Fourth Raikage, Kumogakure launched a fierce attack, with an extremely rapid offensive. Even elite shinobi like Kakashi, who were sent over, were seriously injured.

 

If it weren't for Might Guy unleashing the Seventh Gate in a battle and injuring the Fourth Raikage, their offensive might have been even greater!

 

However, Tsunade's actions have not provided much support to the front line.

 

After all, she has just taken office. On the one hand, she needs to familiarize herself with the functions of the Hokage, and on the other hand, she needs to control the manpower under the control of the previous Hokage so that she can easily mobilize the overall force of the village.

 

To defend against external threats, one must first ensure internal stability. Although this statement is somewhat biased, it is not without reason.

 

Whether it's Jiraiya or Natsuo, she tightly held onto these trump cards and didn't dare to play any of them.

 

After all, although Kumogakure is very aggressive, it is just the power of a single country. The front line can still hold on, and there is still a chance of victory. At least delaying time is still possible...

 

During this time, she used the funds provided by Natsuo to expand her own power while guiding the relationship between Konoha and the shinobi clans, gradually gaining control over the village.

 

However, as the situation deteriorates bit by bit, she will eventually play the card of a Kage-level expert.

 

Jiraiya also knows this, knowing that he may have to go to the battlefield at any time. So he takes advantage of this last moment of peace to take a good look at the new Konoha.

 

After all, it's been a long time since he last visited the village. Jiraiya takes out a copy of the Konoha News and reads its contents.

 

"An old man was taking a walk and accidentally fell into the nearby river, shouting for help! Two Root shinobi passed by, pretending not to see, and continued walking while chatting."

 

"The old man, in a desperate situation, shouted loudly, 'Overthrow Shimura Danzō!' The two Root shinobi, upon hearing this, were shocked and quickly jumped into the river, dragging the old man ashore and arresting him."

 

Jiraiya bursts into laughter, slapping his thigh.

 

"Hahaha! This newspaper is really interesting!"

 

"It's just like Danzō's style!"

 

Since the newspaper is out, there's no need to guess, it must be Natsuo's doing.

 

Of course, it's not just about satirizing Danzō, he didn't hold back when it came to the Third Hokage either.

 

Jiraiya looked at it and couldn't help but laugh and shake his head.

 

But the Third Hokage shamelessly changed the teaching materials and boasted that he was the strongest Hokage in history.

 

Before, the Third Hokage had some prestige, and more importantly, he held the power of the Hokage. And now, the esteemed Third Hokage was defeated by the Fourth Kazekage?

 

He instantly became known as the most useless Hokage.

 

There are several jokes, Jiraiya is almost laughing his head off.

 

"It seems that Konoha has really gained a lot of new and interesting things." Jiraiya wiped away the tears of laughter: "So this hermit should also gather some materials."

 

"I heard that the Uchiha clan's club has a great reputation, excellent service experience, and a proper attitude..."

 

"Well, I'll go criticize them first!"

 

Saying that, he walked towards the Uchiha clan's territory.

 

The Uchiha clan district is even more prosperous than before. People come and go in an endless stream.

 

Jiraiya headed straight for the entertainment street, where it was even more bustling. This is Jiraiya's main observation target.

 

"As a hermit who travels the world, I must thoroughly investigate how decadent these Uchiha have become, and whether they can still serve Konoha on the battlefield!" Jiraiya said with a righteous face.

 

Then he looked around and suddenly found that his eyes were not enough. The Uchiha club is undoubtedly the most famous, but there are also many similar places located in the Uchiha clan district.

 

At the entrance of each club, there are two attractive girls standing, charming and alluring. A mischievous smile, with endless charm.

 

Jiraiya silently swallowed his saliva, that swaying whiteness was too tempting!

 

And this is just an ordinary storefront, what kind of scene is the Uchiha club, which is regarded as a holy place by countless fans?

 

It's simply disgraceful, tarnishing the Uchiha clan's reputation!

 

"No, no, no, as a ninja, I can't make such a simple decision... Hmm, I need to go into the club and carefully investigate before making a judgment!"

 

Jiraiya found a reason for himself and forcibly averted his gaze, heading straight for the Uchiha club.

 

His time was limited, and he didn't know when Tsunade would call him to the battlefield.

 

If you want to criticize, you should start with the one with the biggest reputation. However, just as he was about to enter the door...

 

Suddenly, he made eye contact with a fellow fan who was also about to enter the door.

 

'Is this the Transformation Technique?' Jiraiya was taken aback. 'To visit a club, one must transform. Who is this person?'

 

Meanwhile...

 

Sasuke, with his transformed appearance, looked strangely at the white-haired old man next to him.

 

'I've never seen this face before, he must be a beginner... Are you staring at me to see how I do things and then imitating a seasoned veteran? Hmm, I understand.'

 

Sasuke thought about his own embarrassing state when he was brought in by Natsuo and couldn't help but smile.

 

He suddenly thought of his past self and felt a sense of camaraderie. He grabbed Jiraiya's hand and said: "Brother, don't worry, we're men, there's nothing to be shy about."

 

"Big brother will take you to experiment!"

 

Saying that, he pulled Jiraiya directly inside.

 

Jiraiya: "...?"
