Tsunade Returns to the Village

Hiruzen Sarutobi was carried back to the Sarutobi Clan, and Sarutobi Aiki summoned the Sarutobi Clan's physician to treat Hiruzen Sarutobi.

A bearded doctor entered the Third Hokage's room, saw the Third Hokage's face was as red as a pig's liver, and quickly used the Mystical Palm Technique to treat Hiruzen Sarutobi.

As a large amount of positive Chakra was injected into the Third Hokage's body, Hiruzen Sarutobi's complexion improved slightly, but his face remained as withered as a dead tree, covered in wrinkles.

The bearded doctor said with a serious expression, "Third Hokage's health is due to overwork. There's also some blood stasis in his skull, likely caused by frequent bouts of anger. He shouldn't get angry so easily anymore. Take some special medicine, and then rest for a while, and he'll fully recover."

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a panicked expression, "So my body isn't seriously injured; it's just that I was angered by that Uchiha Clan."

Upon hearing this, the bearded doctor said with a serious expression, "There's really nothing seriously wrong. However, there is another issue: your prolonged lack of sleep has caused your brain to begin developing dementia."

Upon hearing this, the Third Hokage asked with a look of surprise, "What do you mean by dementia?"

The bearded doctor said with a serious expression, "It's Alzheimer's disease. You should rest well and take some of our Sarutobi Clan's secret medicine. The dementia will gradually stop."

Upon hearing these words, Hiruzen Sarutobi was flooded with memories: his disciples had all abandoned him, those he had trusted had turned their backs on him, and the village was in complete chaos again.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed again, his face filled with weariness, and said, "I will eventually have to face this. If I can get rid of this Evil Uchiha, the village should return to normal!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a resentful look, "It's all that Evil Uchiha's fault. If it weren't for him, I would still be the respected Third Hokage. It's all his fault. He even ruined my reputation and turned me into the Evil Hiruzen Sarutobi."

Seeing the Third Hokage's angry expression, Sarutobi Aiki immediately comforted him, "Uncle Third Hokage, Tsunade will be back soon, but she's currently pregnant and may not be able to fight the Uchiha Clan."

Upon hearing this, the Third Hokage's face lit up with joy, and he said with a smile, "This is wonderful! With Tsunade's pure Senju Bloodline, her child will surely possess extraordinary talent, and might even awaken the First Hokage's Wood Release. Our Konoha will rise again, it's just a pity I won't be able to see it."

Sarutobi Aiki looked at the Third Hokage, who was filled with emotion, and said, "I just don't know who the father of each child is. If the father's talent is mediocre, it will definitely affect the child's talent."

Upon hearing this, the Third Hokage nodded and said with a serious expression, "The child's father should be Jiraiya. It seems that after all these years, Tsunade has come to her senses and finally agreed to Jiraiya."

Meanwhile, along the border of the Land of Fire, a large group of Anbu Ninja followed Tsunade and Shizune, heading towards Konoha.

As Tsunade walked along, she said impatiently, "Is this how you treat a pregnant woman? You want me to go back and save the village, and you take me on a journey through the night without even preparing basic nutritional supplements. What's wrong with your brains? You're not smart at all."

Hearing Tsunade's furious outburst, an Anbu Captain immediately spoke up, "Lady Tsunade, please hold on a little longer. We'll be in Konoha soon. That Evil Uchiha is using the Third Hokage's name to commit all sorts of atrocities in the village, robbing villagers every day."

Another ANBU ninja wearing a lion mask said anxiously, "Lady Tsunade, the Uchiha Clan is now a cancer in Konoha. They send the Police Force to arrest people on the streets every day, even our Anbu Ninjas. If you don't go back, Uchiha Qingcheng might become the Fifth Hokage. Only you can stop Dan."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade said angrily, "What does it have to do with me that he becomes the Fifth Hokage? Anyway, I don't want to become Hokage. I just don't want to see the village that my grandfather founded turned into a mess. That old man, the Third Hokage, is simply not suitable to continue being Hokage."

The Anbu Ninjas looked embarrassed upon hearing Tsunade's words. The ANBU ninja with the lion mask then spoke up, "The Third Hokage wants you to succeed him as Hokage. He's been tarnished by the Uchiha Clan and is simply unsuitable to continue as Hokage."

Tsunade said with a look of disgust, "You bastards, leaving me with so much trouble, and you expect me to become Hokage and clean up that old man's mess? That's wishful thinking. I'm not going to be the Fifth Hokage!"

Shizune, seeing Tsunade's disgusted expression, spoke up again, "Lady Tsunade! The village needs you. If that Uchiha Clan, I'm afraid Konoha will become the weakest Kage village. If other ninja villages discover this, they might directly invade the Land of Fire."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade's expression softened slightly, and she said seriously, "Let's keep going! I haven't been back to the village in a long time, and I'm curious to know what Konoha is like now, and whether it's as dangerous as you all say."

A large group of Anbu Ninjas spoke up, saying, "Lady Tsunade, you don't know how dangerous Konoha is right now. That Evil Uchiha, using the Third Hokage's name, launched the Konoha Crush Plan, robbing everyone in the village. They even forced the powerful ninja clans to pay property management fees and garbage collection fees."

Another Anbu Ninja said with a panicked expression, "Those villagers don't know what happened, and they've turned their anger on the Third Hokage. They're cursing the Hokage Tenten in front of the Hokage Building, and now they've started parading long banners in protest."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade laughed again and said with a smile, "Who told this old senile man to like signing autographs randomly? Now he's been tricked, he deserves it. Let his bad reputation go to his grave!"

Upon hearing this, the group of Anbu Ninjas all looked helpless, speechless at Tsunade's audacity.

Shizune was also dumbfounded and said, "Lady Tsunade, I've only ever seen Danzo for the Third Hokage before, but now the Third Hokage is taking the blame for the Uchiha Clan, this is just too ridiculous!"

Tsunade said with great disdain, "These damn politicians, instead of thinking about how to develop the village, are Tenten plotting and scheming. They're all no good."

Tsunade's words were an insult to the Third Hokage, and by extension, to Shimura Danzō Uchiha Qingcheng.
