[Obito: This guy also has the Mangekyō, could he be from the Uchiha Clan?]

[Fugaku: That's unlikely. Judging from the scene, it's set more than ten years later. It's impossible that such a powerful clansman would suddenly appear without any records in the clan.]

[Ōnoki: So, it seems your Uchiha Clan died at the hands of your own people.]

[Fugaku: I've already said that the mysterious person is unlikely to be from the Uchiha Clan. It's possible someone stole the Uchiha Clan's eyes and did this.]

After this review, Fugaku also began to change his strategy.

The reason I had kept the Mangekyō hidden all along was to avoid arousing the village's suspicion, but now that I have almost broken Danzo, there is no need for me to show weakness anymore.

With just his two Mangekyō, the village would have to think twice before taking action against the Uchiha Clan, let alone now that there's another Obito Uchiha.

Obito was one of the few Uchiha who dreamed of Hokage, and he was also a disciple and grand-disciple of the Third Hokage.

He's from a respectable family, and if he makes some contributions in the future, even if he doesn't become Hokage Position, serving as a Hokage's assistant shouldn't be a big problem.

It's just that Fugaku doesn't trust Itachi anymore; otherwise, he would still want to push Itachi to the Hokage position.

Seeing that so many Kage Level shinobi have been listed, but most of them are from Konoha, is Konoha really that powerful?

Previously, there were the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha, who managed to defeat Great Shinobi Villages so badly that they couldn't even raise their heads.

It wasn't until the Second Hokage that things improved slightly, and other ninja villages also produced some genius Shinobi, so they weren't too far behind Konoha.

People like Kinkaku Ginkaku, the Third Raikage, and the Third Tsuchikage made their names during that period.

When the Third Hokage came along, everyone thought Konoha had fallen into decline. After all, the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, was notoriously indecisive. Who knew that the Konoha Sannin would emerge?

The new generation of geniuses in Konoha are all ridiculously talented; if you don't have Kage Level strength, you'd be embarrassed to even greet them.

When did Kage Level strength become the standard for judging a person? There are only a handful of Kage-level ninjas in the entire Shinobi World.

Meanwhile, Tsunade and Shizune had also returned to the Konoha. At this time, the gatekeepers of Konoha were not yet Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane.

Even Pain dared not walk through the main gate of Konoha when these two were around, which shows how powerful their title as the gatekeepers of Konoha was.

"Lady Tsunade." The Shinobi on duty nearby naturally recognized Princess Tsunade.

"See? I told you Konoha is still the same as always." Tsunade didn't want to pay any attention to them at this moment and went into Konoha on her own.

The Shinobi on duty naturally wouldn't stoop to Lady Tsunade, after all, everyone knew her personality to some extent.

As the granddaughter of the First Hokage, Tsunade is quite well-known in Konoha, and she was recognized by sharp-eyed villagers as soon as she entered the village.

"Lady Tsunade is back!"

Hearing this, the people on the street rushed to the village entrance. Tsunade had been gone from Konoha for some time, and the villagers still missed the legendary "One-Red" of the "Sannin."

Tsunade's suggestion to establish a medical unit clearly propelled her prestige in Konoha to new heights; when people think of a medical unit, the first person that comes to mind is undoubtedly this legendary Shinobi.

"What a hassle." Although Tsunade said it was a hassle, Shizune could sense that Lady Tsunade still had feelings for the village. It was just that since that incident, Lady Tsunade no longer easily expressed her feelings.

Meanwhile, the Third Hokage also learned of Tsunade's return to the village immediately through his Telescope Technique.

By this time, the Third Hokage had aged more than ten years due to the events unfolding before him. There was nothing he could do; his good friend Danzo was too much of a troublemaker, and he had to clean up his messes Tenten.

Some families in the village are now dissatisfied with their protection of Danzo.

Especially the Ino-Shika-Cho and Aburame Clans, at least half of the members of these families are Root these clans. Now that they're gone, it's hard for them to explain it to others.

Now that Tsunade is back, she can help relieve some of the pressure on the village.

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi was more or less considering stepping down. Historically, it was after the Third Shinobi World War that Hiruzen Sarutobi signed a peace treaty with Iwagakure on the premise that Konoha made concessions.

If I'm not mistaken, Konoha won by a narrow margin, but ironically, Konoha still had to pay compensation to Kumogakure.

This action directly caused the Third Hokage to lose the support of the people, and he was ultimately forced to abdicate.

The war is still ongoing, and if it weren't for Minato Namikaze's unexpected rise to prominence and outstanding performance on the battlefield, Konoha would probably still be at a disadvantage.

Meanwhile, Obito's team also heard the news of Tsunade's return to the village. Originally, Obito and Kakashi were not interested, but no one could stop a little girl who was chasing after a star.

"Obito, Kakashi, hurry up!" Rin excitedly called out to Obito.

Obito and Kakashi exchanged a glance, looking like two brothers in distress.

"I can't wait to see Lady Tsunade." At this moment, Rin was like a little girl chasing after a star.

After all, Tsunade is one of the strongest female Shinobi World, and she is treated like an idol in the hearts of these little girls.

This also shows Tsunade's status in Konoha. Whether it's her identity, position, contributions, or prestige, who else but Tsunade could be the Fourth Hokage?

Of course, this is on the premise of eliminating that lecherous, unrestrained person who loves beautiful women and enjoys peeping.

Jiraiya's contributions to Konoha were substantial, and after the Third Hokage's sacrifice, Jiraiya was undoubtedly the most popular choice at the time.

But with Jiraiya's personality, if you make him Hokage, wouldn't he just implement a policy of mixed-gender bathing from now on?

At that moment, Rin and the other two also spotted the dashing Lady Tsunade in the crowd.

"Wow, she's huge!" Obito's first impression of Tsunade was that she was huge, and not just any size.

It's not fair to blame Obito for thinking the wrong thing; after all, everyone's first impression of Tsunade is inevitably her voluptuous figure and large breasts.

Obito, who had never seen a girl this big before, blushed instantly.

Lin thought Obito was sick and asked Obito very considerately if he felt unwell.

Obito quickly changed the subject; it would be better if Rin knew what he was thinking.

Why doesn't Kakashi blush? Is it because he's wearing a mask? Looks like I'll have to wear my own mask next time.

Tsunade also noticed Obito at a glance.

"That kid wearing a mask must be Sakumo's child."

He and the girl next to him must be Minato's disciples, right? By the way, what's with that blushing Uchiha kid next to him?

"Don't let Lady Tsunade's young age fool you; it's because of Lady Tsunade unique Ninjutsu."

"Her real age might already be that of an aunt," Kakashi, with his greater knowledge, explained why Lady Tsunade so young.

However, as soon as he finished speaking Kakashi sensed a murderous aura, which frightened Kakashi so much that he quickly shut his mouth.

However, Obito to the side, was completely unaware of this and was instead preoccupied with Tsunade's age.

"What? She's so young, yet she's an auntie." At this moment, Obito ignored Kakashi's frantic winks and signals.

Just as Obito was speaking, a huge fist landed on his head with an Obito thud.

"Ouch, that hurts!" Obito quickly covered his head, jumping up and down in pain.

He turned around and found Tsunade right behind him, looking at him with a strange expression.

Obito was so frightened that he forgot the pain and couldn't utter a single word, stuttering.

"Tsunade... Tsunade, ah! No, Lady Tsunade." Startled, Obito instinctively blurted out the word "auntie."

Upon hearing the title "Auntie," Tsunade's face instantly darkened.

Startled, Shizune quickly stopped Lady Tsunade, preventing Tsunade from further disciplining the outspoken brat in front of her.

The end result was that Obito got another big bump on his head, which is no ordinary treatment. Apart from Nawaki, only Naruto has ever received such treatment.
