The Legendary Sannin Should Retire That Title

The Hokage's Office.

Tsunade sat behind her desk with a gloomy expression, Shizune stood carefully to the side holding Tonton, Jiraiya sat on the windowsill pretending to look at the scenery.

At the desk.

Kakashi and Might Guy, two Jonin, stood at the very front.

Hinata and six other Chunin and Genin stood behind the two, trembling with fear, not daring to even breathe loudly.

Kakashi scratched his head, exuding an air of nonchalance, and chuckled, "Ah... that's about it for this mission."

After listening to Kakashi's rambling mission report, Tsunade's face turned extremely grim.

'Bang!'

A loud bang sent chills down the spines of all the newbie Genin.

Tsunade shouted angrily, "You lot are incredibly audacious! You actually dared to go to the Otogakure to investigate Orochimaru!"

"For your safety, I've sent four Jonin, including Jiraiya, to support you..."

"Do you know how many missions are delayed just by spending two days going back and forth?"

Hinata stuck out her tongue and chuckled sheepishly, "Big sister, calm down first. Getting angry not only causes wrinkles, but also little blisters on your forehead and around your mouth..."

"Besides... to be honest, the Pervy Sage and his gang were completely useless! By the time they arrived, we had already driven Orochimaru away!"

"And he calls himself one of the Legendary Sannin? Orochimaru is utterly useless."

"Including this time, I've defeated him twice now!"

Tsunade and Jiraiya's faces were ashen.

Hinata may despise Orochimaru, but she keeps mentioning the "Legendary Sannin" in her conversations, and she even includes the two of them in her comments.

Seeing Tsunade's expression, Hinata seemed to suddenly realize something and immediately added, "Orochimaru is a disgrace to the Legendary Sannin, he can't even beat a few Genin!"

Tsunade and Jiraiya's expressions turned even uglier.

Orochimaru was the strongest of the Legendary Sannin, and he had just killed the Fourth Kazekage and the Third Hokage not long ago, making him a force to be reckoned with in the Shinobi World.

If even Orochimaru can't beat a few Genin, then what are these two?

A disgrace upon a disgrace, not even as good as the students of the Ninja Academy?

Were the Fourth Kazekage and the Third Hokage both useless, even worse than Genin?

Shikamaru secretly tugged at Hinata's clothes, signaling Hinata to shut up.

Hinata rolled her eyes at Shikamaru.

What do you know? I'm just changing the subject!

My Otsutsuki Hinata is clever; how could she be so tactless?

Moreover, in another three or four years, you will know the true strength of Konoha Genin.

As for Konoha 'Chunin... Obito Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha were both Chunin, and they could also hold up a significant portion of Konoha 'Chunin.

Although Itachi Uchiha was Anbu leader, a position equivalent to Jonin, there was no official document to prove his promotion to Jonin.

So when he defected, he was actually still Chunin.

As for the Konoha Jonin...

With Otsutsuki Hinata, Might Guy, and Kakashi Hatake all around, the Jonin of Konoha are not to be trifled with.

But when it comes to Hokage...

Ahem! Apart from the First Hokage, all the Hokage so far have been... well, let's just say they're not exactly great.

Tsunade hadn't been in a good mood these past two days, and she had originally wanted to give Hinata and the others a good scolding to vent her anger.

But after Hinata said that, Tsunade could only suppress her anger.

Although Tsunade gave the order to pursue Sasuke, if you can't catch him, then just come back. Who gave you permission to investigate Otogakure?

Uh... it seems that now it's no longer as simple as investigating information about the Otogakure, but rather the complete destruction of the Otogakure.

Tsunade swears that it won't take more than three days for the accountability documents from Iwagakure and Kumogakure to reach Konoha.

They don't care whether the leader of the Otogakure is Orochimaru or not. Your Konoha is attacking other countries without authorization. Do you want to start a war?

Although Iwagakure and Kumogakure do not gain any substantial benefits.

But as the saying goes, seeing your enemy suffer makes you feel better.

Even if I don't gain any real benefit from causing trouble for Konoha... it makes me happy, so what's it to you?

"Cough cough!"

Jiraiya coughed lightly and tried to smooth things over, saying, "Alright! Now that everyone has returned safely and we've obtained so much information from the Otogakure, it's a happy ending for everyone."

"Tsunade, there's no need to get so angry!"

"These kids know what they're doing!"

Tsunade stared coldly at Jiraiya.

Do these kids know their place?

What's the point of this?

Do they have the sense to take down Orochimaru?

Even though Orochimaru is an enemy, he still bears the title of one of the Orochimaru Legendary Sannin.

Orochimaru was defeated by several Konoha Chunin and Genin, and now he is Chunin Hinata, a Chunin. Tsunade and Jiraiya felt extremely ashamed and didn't even want to mention the name of the "Legendary Sannin" again.

What a disgrace!

Hinata always brings up topics that are best left unsaid.

"I've done some research before. The title 'Legendary Sannin' should have been given to you by Hanzo of the Salamander, the leader of Amegakure, after you were Hanzo, right?"

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

"You Pervy Sage, really! You were so proud of calling yourself one of the 'Legendary Sannin' before, and you're still so happy after being defeated. I feel embarrassed for you!"

At this point, Hinata turned to Tsunade and said obsequiously, "Big sister, I think you shouldn't use the name 'Legendary Sannin' anymore. We can't afford to lose face like that."

"Let me think about it..."

"How about we call it..."

'Bang--'

Before Hinata could even come up with a new title for Tsunade, Hokage smashed the Tsunade's desk to pieces with a single punch.

Tsunade to the door and shouted angrily, "Get out of here!"

"OK!"

Hinata stood at attention obediently and quickly turned to walk out.

Before leaving, Hinata gave Shikamaru a 'V' sign.

Operation successful!

Anyway Hinata only despises Orochimaru and Jiraiya, and she didn't say anything bad about Tsunade, so she shouldn't hold a grudge, right?

I guess so...

Hinata fled the Hokage's Office as if her life depended on it. The moment she closed the door, she heard Tsunade's roar coming from inside...

"You bunch of bastards..."

I bet Shikamaru and the others are going to get a lot of flak!

Hinata strolled around the streets twice, but instead of rushing home, she bought a bunch of snacks and ran up to the Hokage Rock. While eating, she looked down on the entire Konoha with the mindset of a 'Hokage'.

"This is my village!"

"Such power and prosperity... it's all thanks to me..."

'Tap tap tap—'

A series of footsteps sounded.

"I've heard you really enjoy the scenery here. Hmm... is there anything interesting to see?"

Jiraiya sat down next to Hinata, casually picked up a skewer of grilled squid and stuffed it into his mouth, saying with a lewd grin, "There's nothing much to see here! We might as well go to the hot springs... cough cough!"

Hinata rolled her eyes at Jiraiya.

To be honest, it's hard to say whether Jiraiya or the Third Hokage had the better methods.

Although the Third's spying was more like that of a ninja... peeping through Crystal Ball is nothing compared to the thrill of being there in person.

Hinata used to think the Third Hokage was more skilled, but now she also thinks Jiraiya is amazing...

Of course, none of them can compare to Hinata.
