Tsunade Take a relaxing and comfortable stroll in the woods.
She said she came out to look for traces of Hiruzen Sarutobi, but in fact she just came out for a walk.
"Isn't this old guy just like that idiot Jiraiya and went to the Custom Street to play?"
Tsunade was thinking while touching his chin while walking.
Hiruzen Sarutobi has been busy for most of his life. After leaving office, Hokage adheres to the principle of "I have been fighting all my life, can't I enjoy it?" It makes sense to go to Custom Street to relax...
Wrong!
Tsunade suddenly realized something.
She clearly told Third Hokage and Jiraiya about Shirozumi and asked them to find a way to get some information from Sasuke and Boruto in the future.
Even the unconventional Jiraiya no longer thinks about running out to have fun and seriously collects information.
How could Third Hokage, who cares more about the village, go to the custom street at this time?
"Huh?"
Tsunade felt like he had stepped on something that felt different.
When I looked down, I saw that there was a piece of blood that had solidified on a handful of grass.
Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief.
After these days of psychological adjustment while teaching Sakura and Ino Medical Ninjutsu, her anemia has gradually recovered.
"Why is there blood here?"
Tsunade frowned and followed the blood stains and walked forward.
While walking, Tsunade stopped and his legs began to tremble.
On a stone is where the last blood stain appeared.
A leg is exposed from behind the stone.
Tsunade took a deep breath and walked away Past. When he saw the thing blocked by the stone, his eyes instantly went dark and he fainted Past.
Evening.
Sakura and Ino, who were waiting for Master Tsunade in the medical department, did not wait for anyone, so they went to Hokage's office to look for someone, and only met Shizune.
After Shizune learned that Tsunade was also missing, he quickly took the two of them to the woods outside the village.
"First, Master Third Hokage disappeared, and then Lady Tsunade disappeared. Please don't..."
Shizune was running wildly in the woods, constantly looking left and right for traces, his face full of anxiety.
Fortunately, after a while, she saw Tsunade lying on the ground and ran Past in a hurry.
"Lady Tsunade!"
Shizune checked Tsunade's physical condition, and after confirming that his life was not in danger or even injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ah!!!"
"W-what is this?"
Sakura and Ino also followed, but the first thing they saw was another thing some distance away from Tsunade.
"That's..."
Shizune looked at Past and his pupils suddenly shrank.
She now understood why Tsunade fainted here.
Less than half a day after the hemophobia was cured, and even before he fully recovered, he encountered the tragic death of someone close to him.
The body of Third Hokage who died tragically was collected and buried, while Tsunade was sent to the medical department.
Since he was not injured, Tsunade quickly woke up under the treatment of Shizune.
Tsunade opened his eyes suddenly and sat up on the hospital bed. He didn't feel weak at all due to hemophobia.
"Who did it?"
Tsunade clenched his fists.
"Lady Tsunade, the medical team has examined and analyzed Master Third Hokage's body. Since there are traces of massive gnawing on the wounds, it can only be determined that the fatal injury was the heart being penetrated and destroyed. What exactly did the murderer use..."
"It must be Danzo!"
Shizune was reporting there, but Tsunade didn't listen to a word. After being distracted for a while, he suddenly became focused, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
"Hey! Lady Tsunade--"
Shizune watched in confusion as Tsunade left the medical department angrily, and hurriedly chased after him.
The entrance to Root's underground base.
"Lord Hokage, do you have anything to talk to Mr. Danzo? I'll call right away..."
"Heaven Kick of Pain!"
"Ah!"
Tsunade called in without saying a word.
Root is best at poison, which has no effect on her at all.
Shizune hurried over with Anbu, followed by Tsunade, and saw only the root members lying on the ground in a mess.
"Danzo, you bastard, you actually tried to murder Third Hokage!!!"
Tsunade kicked open the door to the room where Danzo was the root leader.
"?"
Danzo looked at the aggressive Tsunade and fell into confusion.
Which time does Tsunade refer to?
Was it the time when Yamato was sent to assassinate him, or the time when he conspired with Orochimaru?
If he brings out something from the past to make trouble, is this new Hokage planning to take advantage of him?
Danzo frowned. "Tsunade, if you don't have evidence, don't lie."
"Am I talking nonsense? Did you show up the day the old man asked me to be Hokage? Did you say to him "Hiruzen, you will regret it"!"
Tsunade smashed the table in front of Danzo with an angry punch, "Obviously there are no enemies in the village now, but the old man died in the woods not far outside the village. Who else could have done it besides our own people in the village?"
"..."
Danzo is speechless.
Isn't this a conversation they often have?
Can this be used as evidence?
"Wait a minute, you said Sarutobi is dead?!"
Danzo Countless emotions flashed through the only exposed eye.
Some are sad and sad, some are happy and happy, and some are regretful and ridiculed.
Danzo and Third Hokage are also a pair of fateful mandarin ducks who love and kill each other.
"Who killed him?"
Danzo asked coldly after calming down.
"Are you still pretending?"
Tsunade clenched his fists.
"If I want to be Hokage, I should kill you, Tsunade! What's the point of me killing Sarutobi who has retired!"
Danzo stared hard and retorted coldly.
"..."
Tsunade was speechless and took a step back.
Just then Shizune came with Anbu and supported Tsunade.
"That guy Sarutobi is also pathetic. If he died at the hands of Orochimaru and died together with Orochimaru, he would have died gloriously as a Konoha hero.
But what happens now? He was killed silently. Even the murderer didn't know who it was. His death was lighter than a monkey hair."
Danzo sneered, with mockery in his tone.
At the same time, there is also some resentment.
After all, if Hiruzen Sarutobi dies at the hands of Orochimaru, then he might have a chance to become Hokage.
As a result, Hiruzen Sarutobi was not dead, and was directly assigned to Tsunade. He didn't even have a chance to operate.
Tsunade left Gen's underground base in embarrassment.
"Lady Tsunade, if you suspect that Danzo did it, you can ask Interrogation Department to interrogate him."
Shizune supported Tsunade and gave suggestions.
"It's not him."
Tsunade looked fragile at this time, his body was limp, and he completely lost the aggressiveness he had just now.
In fact, of course she knew it was not Danzo who did it, but she just wanted to escape.
To escape from a conclusion that can be drawn even if the murderer is not known yet - if she had not told herself, then the teacher Sarutobi would definitely not have died.
If she didn't want to hide the news about the arrival of Sasuke and Boruto in the future, she wouldn't have let the teacher and Jiraiya investigate, and this wouldn't have happened.
Taking a step back, if she informed Shirozumi and Shirozumi was in Konoha, even if the teacher Sarutobi was passed through, as she learned from Sakura that Shirozumi removed Hanabi before leaving Konoha Caged Bird's method can restore it instantly.
That's it.
Tsunade, who had just regained his fighting spirit for a few days, fell into depravity again, staying at home and drinking and sleeping every day.
Fortunately, in order to be lazy before this, she had delegated the power of the film to others, so she had someone to help her handle official duties, and Konoha continued to operate as usual.
Third Hokage's death cannot be kept secret for long.
After the medical team found that no new information could be found, the family members were notified.
Konohamaru, who was in the village, was the first to know, but Asuma Sarutobi was not in the village, and was on a mission with Choji and Shikamaru.
We can only send someone to inform them again.
"Please, Lord Jiraiya."
Shizune handed over task Scroll to Jiraiya.
"Let's go, kiddos."
Jiraiya lost his cynical expression and looked back very seriously at the three-person team he led this time, Konohamaru, Naruto, and Boruto.
He got the chance to leave the village, but the price was the death of his teacher Hiruzen Sarutobi and the fall of his friend Tsunade.
