"You are lying to me, right?"

Tsunade was not deceived by Jiraiya's pretending to be serious.

She looked at Jiraiya and asked word by word with a calm expression.

Jiraiya was stunned by the question. Obviously, he did not expect Tsunade to see through him directly, so he couldn't help but reveal some flaws.

"Ha, it turns out that's true, Jiraiya, you are really..."

Tsunade quickly captured the answer she wanted from Jiraiya's slightly panicked expression. As a happy enemy who grew up together, Tsunade was too familiar with Jiraiya.

"Tsunade... listen to my explanation...!"

Jiraiya looked at Tsunade who had clenched her fists and suddenly became nervous like a conditioned reflex.

Tsunade was already angry at Jiraiya's coaxing. She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, as if she wanted to teach Jiraiya a lesson.

However, because I just learned about the death of my teacher Sarutobi Hinako and his former partner Orochimaru, Tsunade was still more patient with Jiraiya, the only remaining old friend.

So Tsunade gave Jiraiya the opportunity to explain, which was absolutely impossible in the past. If she had been before, she would have already punched her in one punch.

"You'd better explain clearly, otherwise I won't spare you."

Tsunade put down her fist, picked up the bottle and took a few sips of the wine. At this time, all the wine and food were served.

Uchiha Sasuke, who was like an outsider, and Naruto Uzumaki, started to eat under the leadership of Miyun.

However, Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha were still paying attention to the progress of things and were eating very restrainedly.

On the contrary, after discovering that he didn't need to do anything by himself, Wei Yun began to eat and drink very easily, and his casualness immediately attracted Tsunade's attention.

"What are this kid doing with these two dolls?"

Tsunade interrupted Jiraiya who wanted to explain, and she asked Jiraiya in confusion.

"Forehead..."

Jiraiya, who was interrupted, had to reorganize his own language.

"I am a witness to the death of Orochimaru and the third-year-old Naruto Sarutobi Hinata."

While eating, Wei Yun made an answer by himself. As the person who watched the game in the VIP seat, he naturally had no problem saying this.

Although he gave the third-generation Hokage a pleasure in the end, in fact, he was more like standing on the side of the third-generation Hokage. After all, Orochimaru, who would not have been killed by the third-generation Hokage, was killed by Miyun.

His final attack on the third-generation Hokage was completely unnecessary. It was just that he was relieved quickly from his respect for the old man.

“…”

Tsunade was very puzzled by Wei Yun's answer, so she continued to ask:

"Are you there at the scene? Did you see everything with your own eyes?"

Faced with Tsunade's problem, Miyun, who was feasting, just nodded. He thought to himself, how could I see everything if I was not there?

"By the way, before dying, the third-generation Hokage shouted a sentence in a gradually weak voice. I could hear it very clearly. He shouted "Let Tsunade be the Hokage."

After nodding, Weiyun suddenly thought of what he had discussed with Jiraiya before, so he added an additional sentence.

But this sentence immediately made Tsunade lose interest in him.

"Haha, is this kid the witness you brought? You wouldn't say that the two little babies behind are also some bullshit "witnesses"?"

Since Tsunade has exposed Jiraiya's scam, she naturally will not believe the nonsense that Weiyun said.

Although Miyun's words did not help persuade Tsunade to return to Konoha to be a Hokage, Tsunade did not care about his identities and the two little guys behind him.

It can be said that Jiraiya helped him successfully divert Tsunade's attention back from the side.

"Of course not. Those two are my disciples, but this one did not lie..."

Jiraiya had to continue to defend himself, but as soon as he said that Tsunade's expression had begun to become impatient.

"Say the point."

Looking at Tsunade's impatient expression and the iron fist that had been clenched again, Jiraiya swallowed and decisively gave up the idea of ​​continuing to make a fuss about the "last words".

"Okay, I think you are the most suitable candidate."

Jiraiya gave up those fancy ideas and began to tell Tsunade the truth.

"I just knew..."

Tsunade sighed helplessly. Her understanding of Jiraiya was really not something she could say casually.

"Why do you think so?"

Sighing, Tsunade picked up the bottle and took another sip. Tsunade was very decadent, but he didn't feel that he was suitable for being a Naruto.

"Now Konoha Village needs someone who can unite the village, Tsunade, that person can only be you, I can't do it."

Jiraiya actually knew very well that the biggest reason why he was elected as the successor of Naruto by the villagers was that Tsunade was not there.

If Tsunade had not left the village, everyone would understand that Tsunade was the most suitable Naruto candidate.

“…”

Tsunade knew what Jiraiya meant, so she was silent for a moment.

"Have the village reached this point? People like me need to unite again..."

In terms of strength and prestige alone, Jirai is not worse than Tsunade, but in terms of identity and recognition by the village, Jirai cannot compare with Tsunade.

Because all the political legacy left by the disappeared surname was basically inherited from Tsunade. For Konoha, the title of Princess Tsunade is not just a saying.

"Yes, the death of Sarutobi, the exposure of the roots, and the death of Shimura Danzo put the dark side of the village on the table. Now we need a Naruto who can be trusted by everyone to reunite Konoha. That person is you."

Although the current situation in the village is not as unbearable as Jiraiya said, Jiraiya is not actually exaggerating.

Shimura Danzo and Rootou were taken to the public, which was a huge blow to the entire ninja village.

The things that Shimura Danzo did, his taboo experiments, his infiltration of Konoha's various families and organizations greatly destroyed the unity between the families and their trust in Konoha.

Jiraiya felt that although Konoha was still far from falling apart, internal contradictions still existed.

“…”

If Tsunade didn't go to pick up Jiraiya, she thought of her younger brother, who would have become Naruto if she was still alive now.

"This responsibility should not be taken on me..."

Tsunade murmured to herself that the person who wanted to be Naruto was her younger brother, but fate finally pushed her to that position.

Tsunade's mood fell to the bottom of the valley after touching the ancestral necklace hanging on her chest, the jewelry she called the "death necklace".

Her younger brother and her lover all wanted to be Naruto, but in the end she was the only one left.

"I refuse."

Tsunade didn't know whether she was angry or disgusted with the Naruto position. In short, she didn't want to hear anything related to Naruto anymore.

"Why?! Tsunade! You can't be immersed in the past all the time!"

Jiraiya instantly got angry. He didn't know if he was angry because Tsunade refused to be a Hokage, or because Tsunade was always obsessed with the dead and constantly tortured him.

"Don't say it anymore, Jiraiya, go back and look at me now. You should know that you will do better than me."

Tsunade was not angry because Jiraiya poked her sore spot because she knew Jiraiya too much, including Jiraiya's feelings for her.

Tsunade is not a fool, how could she not know Jiraiya’s love for her?

"Tsunade!"

Jiraiya was obviously a little confused. He needed to calm down. At this time, continuing to say too much would only hurt both of them, so Weiyun stopped him in time.

"So they have already said that, just shut up honestly. If they can't meet their requirements, how could they go back with you honestly?"

Weiyun wiped his mouth and decided not to continue watching. He continued to do this with Jiraiya. He would never catch up with Tsunade in this life. No, he took Tsunade back to be a Hokage.

"The two people you are thinking about are your younger brother Yoshiki and lover Kato, right? Do you want to see them? It's actually very simple. The ninjutsu left by your uncle, the second generation of Hokage Senju Tobirama, can resurrect them."

Why did Jiraiya really have a heart-to-heart talk with Tsunade until he went to Yu Hidden Village?

It is because he doesn't know how to prescribe the right medicine. Orochimaru obviously uses everything to do at this point, but it has to be said that the effect is indeed significant.

“…”

"Weiyun, do you know what you are talking about?!"

When Tsunade heard what Miyun said, Tsunade was stunned, while Jiraiya responded fiercely.

He questioned Wei Yun indignantly.

"Don't you know? Konoha's top ninjas should have reported to you, right? Orochimaru used this trick to force the third-generation Hokage to use corpse ghosts to seal them all, right?"

Since Miyun stood up and wanted to be the role of Orochimaru, he would naturally stick to it. So he ignored Jiraiya who was anxious and continued to speak:

"Orochimaru used the reincarnation of the filthy land to summon the first Hokage and the second Hokage. The two old men still reunited the old with the third Hokage Sarutobi Hinaru.

Judging from the effect of his ninjutsu, the resurrected people's thinking and memory are basically the same as before, but their bodies cannot ask for so much.

If you just want to see them and revive them, it's not a problem."

Wei Yun's words hit Tsunade's heart one by one, making her feel at a loss.
