Now Teuchi I think about it carefully, it seems like the last time Nawaki came to eat ramen was with Tsunade Jiraiya, and Orochimaru. I heard that he was going to carry out a mission that time, but who would have thought.
"Okay, three servings of miso tonkotsu ramen." With that Teuchi, Teuchi stopped doing anything else and began preparing ramen for Obito and the others.
[Shinobi World Review: Top 13 Shinobi World -Kage Level Fighters – The Second Hokage Tobirama Senju]
[Developer of Forbidden Techniques in the Shinobi World]
[Second Mizukage]
[Water Release or Forbidden Technique]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: My teacher? But how can my teacher only be ranked 13th?]
[Danzo: I wonder if the teacher will regret it if he sees Konoha today.]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Enough, Danzo. Right and wrong, merit and demerit, cannot be judged by your own conjecture.]
Danzo also filled with hatred, hating his past self for not being braver back then, wondering if the outcome would have been different.
"Second Grandfather!" Nawaki exclaimed in surprise.
"What? They're listing the Second Hokage," Obito corrected him while eating ramen, realizing his little brother's brain wasn't quite working properly.
However, Nawaki didn't pay much attention to Obito's words. He was currently staring at the inventory screen with curiosity, wanting to see his great-uncle's inventory.
[In the scene, the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, and his elite guard are trapped in a forest.]
"Are we surrounded? There are 20 enemies. Judging from their tracking ability, they are from Kumogakure." Tobirama Senju his eyes closed.
The Shinobi who came to pursue them were no ordinary people, but elite Jonin under the command of Kinkaku Ginkaku. If they continued to run, they would soon be caught up.
"We only have seven people, including the Second Hokage, which makes it very difficult to handle," Mitokado Homura added from the side, clearly indicating that what followed would be a very tough battle.
"Homura, why are you so cowardly? Now we can take this opportunity to ambush and create a breakthrough," said Utatane Koharu next to him, with great dissatisfaction.
Koharu is not yet the incompetent duo she will become in Konoha; at this moment, she is still very decisive and brave.
"Useless Koharu, someone needs to act as bait to lure them away in this situation," an Uchiha Shinobi said.
[Ōnoki: Wasn't it said that the Second Hokage hated the Uchiha? How come there are Uchiha Clan members in the Hokage Guard Platoon?]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: The Second Hokage was only wary of people like Madara; he was relatively lenient towards the Uchiha Clan. Kagami was someone the Second Hokage acknowledged.]
"Damn it, are we going to have to bring up that matter again?!" Danzo angrily at the screen. Wasn't this just picking on him and giving him a piece of his mind?
[What Uchiha Kagami said in the scene is correct. If they were to ambush here, they would not be familiar with the terrain and would already be at a disadvantage compared to the Cloud Village ninjas who were born and raised here.]
Add to that the twenty-odd Elite Jonin, and then there are those two freakish beings, Kinkaku and Ginkaku. If those few stayed behind to ambush, they would be doomed.
"A bait? They'll definitely die." Torifu Akimichi poured cold water on their hopes at this moment.
At this moment, Tobirama Senju was also observing his disciples.
At this moment, Danzo hesitated greatly, wanting to say the words but not daring to.
"I'll go." Hiruzen's words broke Danzo's reverie and the silence of the others.
"Hiruzen, you!" the group exclaimed in confusion.
"Don't worry, don't let my appearance fool you, I'm the strongest among you!" Hiruzen Sarutobi reassured them, afraid they would worry about him.
As Hiruzen Sarutobi watched the footage being reviewed, he fell silent. He had made that choice without hesitation back then, but now, his teacher had entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, yet he had plunged Konoha into war time and time again.
This First Hokage went against the original intention of establishing the village and was not a qualified Hokage.
Undeniably, Hiruzen Sarutobi was driven by pure passion back then, but who knows how much of that passion remains today?
But Danzo was dumbfounded. He was about to say it when Hiruzen beat him to it.
Danzo clenched his fists in anger, but for some reason, he felt a sense of relief after Hiruzen said those words.
"Danzo, we're counting on you from now on," Hiruzen Sarutobi said, patting Danzo's arm.
"Shut up. I was going to raise my hand, but don't try to be cool all by yourself. I'll be the bait." Danzo pushed Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand away and said ungratefully.
Just as Danzo and Hiruzen were arguing Tobirama Senju suddenly interrupted.
"You are all young inheritors of the Fire Consciousness who will protect the village in the future."
"No way! You're the Hokage, there's no stronger Shinobi in the village than you!" Danzo stood up and said excitedly.
"Danzo, you're always competing with the Monkey, but what we need now is unity. Let's not let personal feelings get in the way."
"Hesitation is a fact. First, examine yourself and calmly understand yourself. If you continue like this, you will only put your comrades in danger," Tobirama Senju said to Danzo.
[Tsunade: I never expected the old man to be so brave when he was young!]
[Orochimaru: To my surprise, Danzo would say something like that.]
[Danzo: Orochimaru, humph!]
At this Danzo still remembered how Orochimaru had tricked him. If it weren't for all the bad luck he'd been having lately, Danzo would definitely have settled the score with Orochimaru.
[Nawaki: My second grandfather was so handsome when he was young!]
[Danzo: Whose child is this? How dare he claim kinship with anyone? This is our Second Hokage of Konoha!]
[Tsunade: What's Danzo? My brother Nawaki can't even call me Second Grandfather anymore.]
At that moment, Danzo realized that this guy really was Nawaki. Damn, Tsunade really saved up 100,000 gold coins! What a spendthrift woman! She spent 100,000 gold coins just like that. If someone married such a spendthrift woman, they would squander all their money.
All I can say is that Danzo has no ideals. If 100,000 gold coins could marry the woman with the biggest breasts in the entire Shinobi World, I wonder how many people would beg to give it to him.
At this point, Tobirama Senju continued.
"In Danzo Hiruzen, there's no need to rush at this age. That time will come eventually. Until then, just preserve your lives."
It's clear that Tobirama Senju never intended for his student to be used as bait; he initially just wanted to observe his disciple's attitude, and now he has the result.
"Monkey, protect those who admire the village and trust you, and then nurture them into people who can be entrusted to the next generation. From tomorrow onwards, you will be the Hokage, Monkey. Konoha is in your hands!" Tobirama Senju stood up and said.
These words shocked Hiruzen, Danzo was even more surprised that the Second Hokage would make such a choice. At this moment, Tobirama Senju looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with unwavering eyes, believing that this disciple could bring peace to Konoha.
[Jiraiya: Is this the spirit of sacrifice of the previous Hokage? It's truly admirable.]
[The Fourth Raikage: The Second Hokage was indeed a very formidable opponent; no one would doubt that.]
