Orochimaru's death has benefited Konoha.
All research materials and findings were accepted by Konoha.
This was Shita Genichi's Puppet Clone carrying Kabuto, and all of it was packed up and sent back to Konoha.
Kabuto has also been recruited by Shita Genichi and is now working diligently at the Experimental Base.
Shita Genichi was naturally very concerned about the First and second Hokage, and had long been planning to Impure World Reincarnation technique.
Especially after Tsunade relented.
The First and the Second Hokage are different after all. The former is incredibly powerful. Even if Impure World Reincarnation, he could sweep away everyone in the current Ninja World except for himself and Uchiha Madara.
The Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, was far less powerful First, but he was an excellent support.
After all, it can carry people!
As for the others, Shita Genichi didn't care.
However, since Orochimaru had already done it, Shita Genichi couldn't be left out either, so he put the Second Tsuchikage and the Third Raikage, among other powerful figures, into the coffin.
Of course, some people deliberately omitted Shita Genichi.
For example, the One-Tail Jinchuriki, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Kinkaku Ginkaku brothers.
However, Shita Genichi the tree did not intend to tell Tsunade these things; some of his plans could not be revealed even to his closest confidants.
"I'm worried about other people."
Tsunade said, " Orochimaru revived the Second Tsuchikage and the others before."
Shita Genichi, "Don't worry, I've gathered the Second Tsuchikage and the others. Uchiha Madara won't have a chance."
"However, it's impossible for us to resurrect all the powerful figures who have died in the past using the Impure World Reincarnation."
"The other ninja villages won't thank us now, let them suffer a bit first!"
" Nagato was right about some things. How can one understand others without experiencing the same pain?"
Uzumaki Ina nodded in agreement, Tsunade, " Lady Tsunade, don't worry too much. Genichi the strongest. Uchiha Madara is no match for Genichi now, and he never will be."
"We have the Hokage from all the previous generations. Even if Uchiha Madara had other Impure World Reincarnation, they wouldn't be a match for him. The First Hokage was the God of Shinobi, far more powerful than Uchiha Madara before he Rinnegan."
"Other ninja villages won't care about our good intentions now; all we need to do is protect ourselves."
Tsunade's worries lessened considerably upon hearing this, and she said with a hint of helplessness, "You're too optimistic!"
Shizune whispered from the side, "I also think Genichi is the most powerful!"
Tsunade couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Right now, this little brat is definitely the strongest, but what about the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki?
This is what she's most worried about.
After dinner, Tsunade went home, Shita Genichi returned to his study to continue his research.
For him, the Rinnegan was a precious and immense treasure.
Even if absorbing this valuable wealth doesn't allow one to awaken the Rinnegan, one can still benefit from it.
After all, while the Rinnegan is also important, Shita Genichi currently values his own Mirror Eye and the Kekkei Mōra he is developing more.
Time passed by unnoticed, and it was already past midnight.
Shita Genichi stretched, tidied up the study, went to wash up, and came out to check. He saw that Uzumaki Ina and Shizune were both asleep.
Upon arriving at Tsunade's residence, Tsunade was frowning and deep in thought, staring at the scroll.
Shita Genichi remained silent, and upon looking down, he saw that it was Wood Release Scroll.
Tsunade suddenly woke up, saw Shita Genichi next to her, and said irritably, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Shita Genichi sat down under the tree and said with a smile, "We haven't handed in today's grain yet!"
Tsunade puzzled at first, then blushed, glared at Shita Genichi, and hesitated before saying, "Kabuto doesn't know all of Orochimaru's secrets. Should we Impure World Reincarnation him using Edo Tensei as well?"
Shita Genichi was taken aback at first, then smiled and asked, "Have you read Orochimaru's data on Human Body Modification?"
Tsunade: "I'm not interested in that. That bastard has made himself less than human."
Shita Genichi gently stroked Tsunade abdomen with one hand. " Orochimaru's previous state was actually similar to that of Tailed Beast."
" Tailed Beast?"
Tsunade was initially puzzled, then startled. "You mean something like Chakra life form?"
Shita Genichi nodded. "That's right. Although it hasn't reached the level of Tailed Beast, it can already freely switch between its physical body and Chakra."
"As you know, Orochimaru has basically studied all the forbidden techniques in the village, especially the Dead Demon Consuming Seal and the Impure World Reincarnation."
"I've looked at the information on the Impure World Reincarnation; it has been further improved and is safer and more reliable than the Second's."
"So, Orochimaru is dead now, but he's probably not completely dead yet."
"Let me study those documents first; I should be able to find a way to revive him."
He certainly didn't need to find other solutions, but Shita Genichi didn't want to release Orochimaru for the time being.
If needed, we can release him for collaborative research in the future.
Tsunade nodded and then asked, "What are your plans for Konan?"
Shita Genichi puzzled. "Isn't this something you, as the Hokage, should be doing?"
Tsunade sneered, "Don't you have your eye on her?"
Shita Genichi immediately protested his innocence. "Slander! Absolutely defamation!"
"I just thought she was talented and might be able to develop Paper Release, giving Konoha another Kekkei Genkai."
"It must be that Jiraiya Pervy Sage talking badly about me."
" Konan and the deceased Yahiko were childhood sweethearts, but he's long since given up on her."
He's not a stud who takes every woman he sees.
With so many beautiful women in the Ninja World, are you going to try and win them all over?
Shita Genichi simply felt that Konan was a promising talent, and it would be a pity if she died.
Tsunade looked suspicious; it wasn't that Jiraiya had actually complained.
It's a woman's instinct.
Besides, Shita Genichi is a lecherous brat.
Look at Uzumaki Ina, Shizune, and even Kurenai—they're all captivated.
However, thinking back to the time I saw those three children, having gone through life and death together, my feelings for them were indeed not easily shaken.
After thinking for a moment, Tsunade said, "Then let her come and be my assistant for now!"
Shita Genichi casually said, "It's up to you."
"However, you can show her the part about Wood Release fusion."
Tsunade nodded, then changed the subject. "Next, I plan to integrate Earth Release and Water Release nature transformations into Wood Release."
"Then there are other changes, but I'm afraid that's unlikely..."
Princess Shita Genichi picked him up from under the tree. "Don't worry, I'm here. You can definitely do it."
"Now we'll proceed with the secret transmission of Ninjutsu."
Tsunade scoffed, "I hope your method works and allows me to master the Wood Release Kekkei Tōta Limit" as soon as possible.
Seeing how eager Tsunade was to learn, Shita Genichi naturally shared all his insights into Wood Release with her.
Tsunade couldn't absorb so much knowledge at once; it exceeded her capacity to process it, and her knowledge overflowed.
late at night.
Tsunade had already fallen into a deep sleep, like a kitten.
Shita Genichi.
For reasons he couldn't quite explain, the mature Tsunade was more attractive to him than Shizune or Uzumaki Ina.
And so is Pakura.
Do you prefer older women?
How come I never noticed this before?
However, Ina and Pakura are about the same age.
Shita Genichi had to admit that he had very low resistance to Tsunade.
Of course, he absolutely denies having any such preconceived notions.
It's all the author's fault.
Gently Tsunade's belly, Shita Genichi fell into deep thought.
Immortality is a difficult problem.
Moreover, there were other people with him.
" The Ten-Tails God Tree...?"
Shita Genichi, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The next day.
Back home, as she washed up and prepared for her morning training, Uzumaki Ina quietly hugged Shita Genichi from behind and whispered, " Genichi, I want a child too!"
Shita Genichi. What should he do?
I can only impart all my knowledge to you.
In the morning, after breakfast, Konan, led by Jiraiya, arrived at the Hokage Building.
The ninjas here come and go in a hurry, appearing very busy, but full of vitality, completely different from the oppressive atmosphere of Amegakure.
Konan, constantly comparing herself to Amegakure.
Yesterday, Shita Genichi said that their management skills were poor, and she was unconvinced.
But looking at the scene, Konoha now appears devastated from yesterday's battle, and the Konoha ninjas seem to be in a great hurry, but the atmosphere is definitely different.
"If I lived in a place like this..."
Konan thought to herself, "This is what a great power is like. I wish small countries could be like this too."
Arriving outside the Hokage Office, Jiraiya pretended to knock on the door, and only entered after hearing a sound from inside.
Konan followed them in and immediately saw Tsunade with her head down, seemingly Tsunade in handling some business.
But what she didn't know was that Tsunade wasn't looking at a document, but rather Shita Genichi's Wood Release Scroll.
For documents, unimportant ones should be handled by the assistant team first.
The most important thing is to deal with Namikaze Minato first.
Namikaze Minato finished dealing with the matter and showed it to Tsunade.
As Hokage, Tsunade had 99% less work to do.
After shifting her gaze from Tsunade, Konan noticed two more desks in the spacious office, one on the left and one on the right.
The desk on the right was empty, while a young girl was sitting behind the desk on the left.
When Shizune saw Konan looking over, she smiled and nodded in greeting.
Konan wanted to respond with a smile, but she hadn't smiled in so long that she couldn't manage one, and in the end, she just nodded stiffly.
" Tsunade, I don't think I need to introduce her, right?"
Jiraiya laughed.
Tsunade looked up at Konan, and for a moment she was reminded of the girl who had given her paper flowers years ago.
"Mmm."
Tsunade responded to Jiraiya, then said to Konan, "You should still remember me, right?"
Konan nodded. "Yes, Lady Tsunade."
Tsunade pointed to the empty desk to his left. "That's your seat, is that alright?"
Konan nodded. "No problem, Lady Tsunade!"
Tsunade walked behind her desk and sat down, Tsunade turned and called out, " Shizune."
Shizune nodded, then got up and left.
Jiraiya, annoyed that no one was paying attention to him, said angrily, "Hey, Tsunade..."
Tsunade looked at Jiraiya with a puzzled expression. "You... is there anything else?"
He's really starting to resemble that guy Shita Genichi.
Jiraiya sighed inwardly, then said, "I'll go to Mount Myoboku."
Tsunade nodded, then looked down and continued reading the scroll.
Jiraiya's face immediately fell.
Konan, somewhat puzzled. " Jiraiya- sensei doesn't seem to be very popular?"
At this moment, Tsunade said, "Go and come back as soon as possible, or simply train at Mount Myoboku and avoid wandering around."
"What if I were to be killed by Orochimaru like that idiot Uchiha Madara..."
Tsunade looked up at Jiraiya: "You don't want to be Impure World Reincarnation either, do you?"
Jiraiya was immediately speechless.
Just then, Shizune entered with several Chunin and Genin assistants carrying a large stack of documents. Upon hearing Tsunade's words, she laughed and said, " Lord Jiraiya, Lady Tsunade is just joking!"
Tsunade scoffed, "I didn't."
" Uchiha Madara has mastered the Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu, and he will definitely resurrect some powerful individuals. In order to deal with this, I have no choice but to use the same method."
Jiraiya said dejectedly, "I'm not that idiot Orochimaru, who doesn't even know how to run away."
Tsunade casually. "Go on, don't disturb my training."
Cultivation?
Jiraiya and craned his neck to look, seeing a dense Jutsu Formula.
" Wood Release?"
Jiraiya asked, "Didn't you already master Wood Release?"
Konan, who was standing nearby, exclaimed in surprise, " Wood Release Kekkei Genkai?"
Tsunade casually said, "It's just Wood Release Kekkei Genkai; there's also Wood Release Kekkei Tōta and Wood Release Kekkei Mōra."
Jiraiya looked bewildered, not that he didn't know about Kekkei Tōta and Kekkei Mōra.
It's Wood Release... When did Wood Release come to have these two?
Seeing Jiraiya's expression, Tsunade smiled and said, " Jiraiya idiot, you're already behind the times!"
Jiraiya was frustrated, then said, "I just haven't had time to study it yet."
" Kekkei Genkai, is it even more difficult than Senjutsu?"
Jiraiya secretly decided that after returning from Mount Myoboku, he would study Kekkei Genkai more in addition to collecting materials.
Turning away from the Hokage Office, Jiraiya found an open space, bit his finger, and summoned Gamabunta by Hand Seals.
" Gamabunta, what exactly is the purpose of sending me to Mount Myoboku this time?"
Jiraiya asked.
Gamabunta raised his eyes and exhaled a puff of smoke, saying, "It's the Great Toad Sage who wants to see you!"
Jiraiya became serious upon hearing this. "Then please have me reverse- Summoning!"
"Knew!"
After saying that Gamabunta disappeared with a bang.
Jiraiya's figure fell from the sky, but before he even hit the ground, he vanished.
Mount Myoboku.
Jiraiya passed through a forest of Petrified Toad Forest and saw the Sage Fukasaku.
"Little Jiraiya, come here right now!"
The Sage Fukasaku waved his hand, then turned and walked inside.
Jiraiya quickly caught up and asked, "Did the Great Toad Sage have another dream?"
The Sage Fukasaku said, "Yes, the old man woke up earlier and said he wanted to see you."
"But you were fighting yesterday. By the way, how's the situation in Konoha?"
Jiraiya sighed, "The enemy was defeated, Nagato died while using the Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique to revive Uchiha Madara."
Sage Fukasaku asked, "That child who possesses the Rinnegan?"
Jiraiya nodded. "I never expected that Nagato's Rinnegan actually came from Uchiha Madara."
Sage Fukasaku was quite surprised. "Is that so?"
The two talked and answered questions along the way, and soon arrived at the core of Mount Myoboku, where they saw the Great Toad Sage, whose body was covered with the marks of time and whose eyes were closed.
"Master, Jiraiya has arrived!"
"Sage Fukasaku shouted."
But the Great Toad Sage remained motionless, so Sage Fukasaku called out twice more in frustration, and only then did the Great Toad Sage drowsily open his eyes.
Although there was only one gap.
"Ha, clasping hands in greeting, just pretending to have taken a nap."
The Great Toad Sage chuckled as he spoke, then his gaze fell on Jiraiya, before his mind momentarily went blank. "Um..."
Sage Fukasaku, helplessly reminded him, "It's Jiraiya."
The Great Toad Sage suddenly realized, and then slowly said, "Little Jiraiya, you dreamed about that boy you mentioned before!"
Jiraiya's heart pounded. " Genichi?"
"So, he is the Child of Prophecy?"
The Great Toad Sage calmly replied, "No, although he did bring about changes to the Ninja World, it's too early to say whether those changes are good or bad."
Jiraiya frowned.
The Great Toad Sage continued, "Fate is always so unpredictable; you'll get used to it."
"But there's some good news: I saw the eyes of the Child of Prophecy."
"That child possesses the Rinnegan."
Jiraiya exclaimed in surprise, " The Rinnegan?"
"A pair?"
"Could it be someone from the Uchiha Clan?"
The Great Toad Sage chuckled, "I don't know about that. It was because of that child that I saw the boy you mentioned."
"He always seems to be associated with the appearance of the Child of Prophecy!"
Jiraiya he listened.
The Great Toad Sage slowly closed his eyes. "Alright, that's all for this time..."
Jiraiya quickly shouted, "Hey, didn't you see what the Child of Prophecy looks like?"
Unfortunately, the Great Toad Sage did not respond.
Sage Fukasaku comforted him, saying, "Little Jiraiya, with so much information, it shouldn't be difficult to find it."
"All right!"
Jiraiya sighed, "Then I'll go back."
The Sage Fukasaku, urged, "Won't you have lunch before you leave?"
"His wife has already gone to prepare the ingredients."
Jiraiya's face turned green at the thought of those insects of various colors. Jiraiya quickly took his leave, dispelled the Summoning, and departed.
Back in Konoha, Jiraiya fell into deep thought.
Rinnegan?
Following beside Shita Genichi?
Which child from the Uchiha Clan?
And wouldn't it also require the transplantation of Hashirama Cells?
Jiraiya felt a headache coming on. Jiraiya thinking for a moment, he thought to himself, "I'll go do some research first, and then I'll just keep an eye on Genichi from now on."
It's winter now, so nobody's out swimming, but the Hot Spring House must be doing a blast.
Jiraiya immediately turned and headed towards the Hot Spring House. As for researching Kekkei Genkai, he'd do that after he'd done his research!
In the Hokage Office, Konan's desk was piled high with documents.
Konan stared in disbelief. Had she already started such intense work so soon after arriving?
Moreover, is it unnecessary to conduct an investigation over a period of time first?
Shizune smiled and explained, "These are all documents and information about Amegakure. We still need to maintain close, and even further, cooperation with Amegakure, so we need your involvement."
Konan asked, "Any plans?"
"For now, there's only one Purge Plan," said Shizune.
"The aim is to eliminate threats between and within both countries, in order to ensure smooth trade routes and increase exchanges between the two nations."
"This will not only boost the economy, but also provide more employment opportunities for both of us."
"Secondly, the Lord Hokage also submitted a proposal regarding business cooperation to the Daimyo Palace's office."
Konan was confused. "Business cooperation?"
Do ninjas go into business now?
Shizune smiled and explained, "Actually, I'm suggesting that the Daimyo Palace cooperate more with the Land of Rain to conduct commercial exchanges, which complements the Purge Plan."
At that moment, Tsunade's voice rang out. "Actually, this plan is also related to the Land of Rivers and the Land of Wind, but for now, it needs to be pushed forward little by little."
