Snagging Tsunade's Complete Legacy

Amid the ruins.

A breeze swept through.

Where Orochimaru had vanished, a trace of an indescribable stench still lingered.

Jiraiya pinched his nose, his entire face scrunched into a knot.

"That old poisonous snake had to leave behind a biochemical weapon before he went," Jiraiya muttered.

Chenshu Senju stood some distance away with one hand in his pocket.

For some reason, seeing Jiraiya's constipated expression made him feel that the sage-art laxative had been absolutely worth it.

Orochimaru probably would not want to eat anything green for the rest of his life.

"Kid."

A crisp voice rang out.

Tsunade took a deep breath.

She walked up to Chenshu Senju and looked the black-haired youth up and down.

Her heavy breathing made her impressive G-cups rise and fall, pale and dazzling.

Chenshu Senju's gaze drifted downward.

Purely physical shock absorption.

If it had been Tayuya, then with the fabric quality of that cheap maid outfit, the buttons would have long since turned into hidden weapons and shot straight at his face.

Calling that scale unfathomable would not have been an exaggeration.

"Where's the thing?" Chenshu Senju held out his hand.

"I keep my word."

Tsunade snorted coldly.

Without the slightest hesitation, she pulled open the collar of her loose kimono.

From between that bottomless cleavage, she pulled out a green scroll still warm from her body.

The movement was too large.

Chenshu Senju could even clearly see the deep ravine marked red by the pressure.

Smack.

Tsunade heavily slapped the scroll into Chenshu Senju's palm.

The scroll carried a faint milky fragrance.

Along with the mixed scent of some cheap sake.

Chenshu Senju calculated inwardly.

If he took this back and sold it in its original state, he wondered whether it could fetch a good price on the black market.

He slowly opened the scroll.

After only one glance.

A mechanical notification as heavenly as music rang out in his mind.

Ding.

"Detected that the host has obtained the First Hokage's core legacy scroll."

"Rating: SS-rank."

"Reward issued: Complete Senju Clan bloodline archive unlocked."

"Ultimate form of Medical Wood Release unlocked: Creation Rebirth Derivative Domain."

Boom.

In an instant.

An outrageously massive amount of knowledge and chakra was forcibly poured into Chenshu Senju's brain, limbs, and bones.

He felt the cells within his body dividing at a terrifying speed.

Reorganizing.

Strengthening.

Even the hidden mechanism behind physical healing that Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage, had never fully deciphered was crudely packaged by the system and shamelessly claimed by him as a passive skill.

Even the faint ache left behind by his previous overuse of Wood Release was completely erased by that green vitality.

And that was not all.

An exceptionally dazzling emerald glow spilled uncontrollably from his body.

Among the broken ruins on the ground.

Dead grass that had been corroded by the poisonous snake's venom actually sprouted fresh shoots again at a visible rate.

A hardcore revival.

It made no scientific sense whatsoever.

"Holy shit!"

Jiraiya's eyes widened as he took two steps back as though he had seen a ghost.

Tsunade's pupils contracted sharply as well.

He had learned it just like that?

He had merely looked at it once, without even forming hand seals.

And he had completely mastered Hashirama-level cellular vitality therapy?

What the hell had this brat's talent been fed on? Did the Sage of Six Paths secretly give him private lessons at night?

Chenshu Senju let out a long breath.

He had hit the jackpot.

This little trip out to farm monsters had been even better than stripping Danzo down to his underwear.

With this ultimate medical form.

He would not even need to watch his health bar in the future. He could just be shamelessly hard to kill with infinite endurance.

"What, did it leave you dumbfounded?" Tsunade could not help asking as she watched his pleased expression.

"Yeah."

"Stunned by my ultimate technique?"

"No." Chenshu Senju closed the scroll.

"Mostly because the scroll smelled so good. It fumigated me," he said with a perfectly serious expression.

The air fell silent for two seconds.

Jiraiya's mouth fell open.

Tsunade's lips twitched violently.

This brat was not only black-hearted as coal, he could even tease his elders without blushing in the slightest.

A downright lawless outlaw.

Yet for some reason.

Seeing Chenshu Senju's infuriating manner, the resistance in her heart toward returning to the village inexplicably faded quite a bit.

She even felt somewhat relaxed.

With such an unconventional anomaly around.

Perhaps the Hidden Leaf Village really would no longer be turned into such a mess by those rotten higher-ups.

Just then.

A rush of hurried footsteps broke the silence.

Shizune ran into the wreckage-strewn ruins, panting as she carried her pet pig.

"Lady Tsunade!"

Shizune was drenched in sweat from running, and she had even lost one of her wooden sandals.

"What is it?"

"Is your hair on fire?" Jiraiya teased.

Shizune swallowed.

She carefully took an emergency document bearing the Hidden Leaf Village's official seal from her robes.

Then she offered it over with both hands.

"It's... an appointment letter from the village higher-ups."

Tsunade froze.

She accepted the document and roughly tore off the seal.

After one glance.

Her slender brows drew tightly together.

Fifth Hokage.

Those two blood-red words struck her heart like a heavy hammer.

Those old geezers among the higher-ups had still stubbornly thrown this hot mess onto her shoulders.

"What does it say?" Jiraiya leaned over, letting out a long sigh of relief.

"Looks like we need to buy tickets for the trip back."

Tsunade remained silent.

She stared fixedly at the document, her gaze shifting unpredictably.

Should she accept it or not?

"Just sign it already."

With one hand in his pocket, Chenshu Senju slowly strolled over.

"The Hidden Leaf Village is broke as hell right now. If you don't go back and take charge, how am I supposed to find an excuse to ask the village for hardship relief?"

"Once you take office, I'll at least count as imperial family."

"I won't even have to pay when I go out to eat in the future."

Jiraiya's lips twitched violently.

What kind of bizarre construction did this brat's brain have?

She was agonizing over inheriting the Will of Fire, and his damn mind was full of exploiting family connections to freeload meals?

Tsunade was angered into laughter as well.

Her fingers clenched tightly around the document.

"Want to dine and dash?"

"Fine."

"Once I go back and become Hokage, you'll be the first one I drag in as free labor. I'll assign you S-rank missions every day and dock your pay!"

With a grand wave of her hand, Tsunade finally made up her mind.

Chenshu Senju curled his lip.

He glanced in the direction of the Hidden Leaf Village.

His gaze gradually turned cold, yet filled with anticipation.

Tsunade was taking office.

A new round of power reshuffling within the village was about to begin.

That old bastard Danzo was probably hiding in his underground base right now, smashing his cane in fury.

The grudge of having his home raided.

It was time to go back and settle the score.

When he returned to the village, if he did not strip Root clean and even peel Danzo down to his underwear.

Then his name, Chenshu Senju, would be written backward.
