In Konoha: Three Choices at the Start

Shock flashed across their faces again and again!

"I underestimated the Third Kazekage. I never thought he could fight Liuyun to this point!"

"Lord Sakumo! I've sensed the Chakra around the Sand Ninja. There are... there are fewer than twenty of them left!"

The Yamanaka Clan Ninja stared in disbelief. Even his body trembled as he spoke.

"What? Are you sure? Does that mean Liuyun wiped out the entire Sand Ninja army by himself?"

Jiraiya's eyes widened, his shock plain on his face.

"Lord Jiraiya! He's right! My Byakugan only sees the Chakra of a dozen or so people up ahead!"

The veins around the Hyuga Clan Ninja's eyes bulged. He sounded just as stunned.

"Hmph! What's there to be so shocked about? Sit down, all of you! It's no big deal! That's how my student ought to be!"

Tsunade had stopped worrying. She raised her pale neck like a proud rooster, looking thoroughly pleased with herself.

Everyone's mouths twitched. Come on, he was her student, not her...

Since when had Lady Tsunade learned to show off like this?

Was this what they meant when they said you became like the company you kept?

Then again, if they had a student that incredible, they might have bragged even more than Lady Tsunade!

Truthfully, everyone from Konoha was green with envy. They would gladly give up ten years of their lives for a student that outstanding!

Jiraiya was envious too, but for a different reason: Tsunade had given herself to that student.

He and Tsunade no longer had a chance. He regretted it now. If only he had taken Liuyun under his wing back then.

He would have gained a student capable of thrashing the Third Kazekage and still been able to pursue Tsunade.

He could have had it all. But
