Jigen's Formidable Strength

Konoha.

The area around Orochimaru's Laboratory was already a complete mess.

The ground was covered in damage from acid corrosion.

After dealing with Boro and Depa, the immediate danger had temporarily been lifted.

Natsuki had warned them long ago, so Tsunade naturally would not foolishly stay behind to see who had arrived.

Other than Natsuki and Minato, anyone capable
