"No need. Even if they discover it beforehand and are on guard, it won't make a difference, will it?"
Three years ago, Ziyun might have pretended.
But three years have passed, and his strength has long since reached the Super Kage Level, so there is no need to hide it too much.
Even if Konoha is prepared, what can they do? Can they stop them?
"Okay... as expected of you."
Tsunade looked at Ziyun with admiration. Although Ziyun had promised not to take action, his presence was a huge deterrent to Konoha.
This time, revenge is something I am determined to achieve.
Konoha, Hokage's office.
" The Fourth Raikage, Tsunade, and the Senju Clan have left Kumogakure."
About a day after Ziyun and Tsunade left Kumogakure and the Land of Lightning, Konoha received this information.
"What are your thoughts? What is Yeyue Ziyun's purpose in leaving the village this time, and where is he going?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the intelligence scroll in front of him and took a puff of his pipe.
Three years ago Ziyun left Kumogakure. He first inspected the land of Kumogakure, and then wandered around the border area between the Land of Fire, the Land of Grass, and the Land of Rain.
To this day, no one knows the purpose of Ziyun's trip out of the village.
But every time he leaves the village, it undoubtedly causes a stir in the Shinobi World and attracts widespread attention.
After all, he was a genius who could single-handedly take on an entire village three years ago. Now, three years later, who dares to say that his strength hasn't increased significantly?
"If it were just Yeyue Ziyun alone, it would be fine, but he's accompanied by the Senju Clan. They might be after Konoha."
Hiruzen Sarutobi analyzed with a furrowed brow.
In fact, he had already figured out that Danzo Root was behind Senju Nawaki's death and the Senju Clan Members's ruined reputation in Konoha.
It's possible that Yeyue Ziyun launched this attack to avenge the Senju Clan.
" Lord Hokage, do you really think that Yeyue Ziyun from the village this time is heading towards the Land of Fire?"
Hatake Sakumo stood to one side, his face full of worry.
He still remembered the monster legend that circulated on the border of Konoha Land of Fire three years ago.
The colossal object, measuring a kilometer in length, has caused widespread fear and unease among the residents of the Land of Fire, and most of the inhabitants of that area have already moved away.
After all, no one could feel at ease living near a monster like that.
That colossal creature, measuring a thousand meters in length, was a monster created by the Ninjutsu of the Fourth Raikage Yeyue Ziyun.
That was three years ago; who knows what amazing growth Yeyue Ziyun will have undergone in the past three years?
If he really is from the Land of Fire, then this is terrible.
It could potentially cause even greater damage than it did three years ago.
"They're most likely after Konoha, probably because of what certain people have done."
Hiruzen Sarutobi snorted coldly and gave Danzo a deep look.
If he hadn't insisted on causing Senju Nawaki's death, the Senju Clan wouldn't have been so angry, and they wouldn't have left Konoha to join Kumogakure.
However, he wasn't wrong to protect Shimura Danzō back then.
At least under his joint rule, Konoha has recovered its vitality in the past three years, and a number of geniuses have emerged.
Orochimaru and Jiraiya have already taken shape.
Once geniuses like Minato Namikaze Uchiha Fugaku have grown up, Konoha will have the resources to rival Kumogakure.
It has to be said that Hiruzen Sarutobi had a love-hate relationship with Danzo. In the original Danzo even forgave Hiruzen Sarutobi when he tried to assassinate him.
If Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't have a wife, son, and grandson, Ziyun would have suspected that these two cunning old men were actually fencing enthusiasts.
" Hiruzen, stop looking at me like that. What makes you think you are any better? You have no right to judge me."
Danzo was no longer afraid of Hiruzen Sarutobi; after killing Senju Nawaki, he had already discovered the secrets of the Senju Clan.
He is currently preparing to collaborate with Orochimaru to transplant Hashirama Cells.
This way, my strength will increase significantly, and I won't have to act according to Hiruzen Sarutobi's wishes.
He would no longer be easily slapped by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Upon hearing Danzo's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi also fell silent.
Having done plenty of despicable things himself, he certainly has no right to criticize Danzo.
"Anyway, let's be prepared for everything. If they really come to Konoha, we must have corresponding preventative measures."
Hiruzen Sarutobi the instructions.
Although it's unclear whether the other party is targeting Konoha, the only option is to move the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled to a safe place.
Just because the other party left the village, Konoha had to act like a timid, anxious wife. This feeling was too unpleasant.
But Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help it; he had done too many bad things, and now he felt like everyone was trying to harm him.
However, Hiruzen Sarutobi still harbored a sliver of hope.
If it were truly to avenge the Senju Clan Members, they probably wouldn't have made such a grand show of leaving the village; perhaps there's something else going on.
Hiruzen Sarutobi could only console himself with this thought.
Besides the Konoha High Command, the leaders of other major ninja villages were also closely monitoring Ziyun and his group's actions.
They were also afraid.
After all, these major ninja villages had contributed to the annihilation of the Senju Clan three years ago; if they were to come after them, it would be a huge problem.
As a result, as soon as Ziyun left the village, all the major ninja villages raised their security level to the highest level.
After nearly a week of trekking, Ziyun, Tsunade, and the others finally arrived at the entrance to Konoha.
"We didn't encounter any obstacles along the way, which is quite interesting."
Seeing the familiar Konoha Gate, Tsunade smiled.
She thought that entering the Land of Fire so openly would draw a lot of questions from Konoha Ninja, but to her surprise, she had no trouble at all.
Is this the power of Ziyun to intimidate?
"Didn't I tell you already? That old coward Hiruzen Sarutobi won't come out until he reaches the Konoha Gate."
Ziyun smiled knowingly.
"Are you the Fourth Lord Raikage of the Senju Clan Members? What brings you to Konoha?"
"We didn't receive any prior notification from Kumogakure."
Unsurprisingly, it was the unlucky fellow Hatake Sakumo who stood at the village entrance and shouted at Ziyun.
In order not to anger Ziyun, Hatake Sakumo spoke in a very kind tone and used polite language.
" Hatake Sakumo, this has nothing to do with you. I'm here to avenge the Senju Clan and Nawaki!"
"Go and summon Sarutobi, Shimura Danzō, and those two Konoha elders!"
Tsunade unleashed her full power, releasing the Chakra of Kage Level expert, shattering the ground.
Upon seeing this, Hatake Sakumo and the dozen or so Anbu behind him immediately changed color.
So they really came to avenge the Senju Clan Members? The Lord Hokage was right after all.
" Tsunade, you must be mistaken. How could Konoha harm the Senju Clan Members and Nawaki?"
Hatake Sakumo gave a wry smile with an apologetic expression.
" Hatake Sakumo, I'll say it again, this has nothing to do with you. If you want to protect those old guys, then I'll have no choice but to take action."
Tsunade a cold shout, extending her small fist, which, in addition to being filled with Chakra, also had a visible semi-transparent white halo.
That's the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
"Wait, I understand. I'll go inform the Lord Hokage right now."
Hatake Sakumo stared at Tsunade's fist, a sense of foreboding crept into his heart.
His combat instincts, honed over many years, told him that if Tsunade's punch had landed, it would have been very dangerous.
Its destructive power is absolutely enormous.
So he had no choice but to send the Anbu behind him to inform Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Before long, Hiruzen Sarutobi, with a solemn expression, led Orochimaru, Jiraiya, the Uchiha Clan Head, the Hyuga clan leader, and a large group of Konoha's elite ninjas to the Konoha Gate.
The fact that so many of Konoha's elites could gather together in such a short time clearly indicates that they had been prepared for this long time.
" Fourth Raikage, Tsunade, what brings you to Konoha?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a broad smile.
"Stop pretending, old man Sarutobi! Tell Shimura Danzō Sarutobi, Utatane Koharu, and Homura Mitokado to come out here."
"I will avenge the Senju Clan Members who died."
Tsunade couldn't contain her anger after seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was his great-uncle's most prized disciple, and it was his great-uncle who personally passed on the Hokage mantle to him.
Despite this, he still relentlessly pursued and exterminated the Senju Clan.
The most intense emotions have now turned into hatred.
" Tsunade, are you mistaken? The Senju Clan Members is the most honorable clan in Konoha, how could they have a grudge against Konoha?"
