"Kid! Now is really not the time to show off, retreat now!"

Even Fukasaku Sage can see how bad the current situation is. The enemy in front of him who can manipulate diamond powder is definitely not something Jiraiya can deal with now. And these vicious diamond powders, even if they get a little bit on them, may cause damage in the future. Time slowly eroded Jiraiya's body.

"I know, but...there is one more thing that must be confirmed!"

Trying his best to cover his mouth and nose with his sleeves, Jiraiya still felt that his eyes and respiratory tract began to hurt. Diamond powder will stick to all susceptible areas of the human body, which means that the eyes are also the most vulnerable place to erosion. . And if one considers that these powders are controlled by the chakra of the mercury lamp, then Jiraiya's ear canal is also unavoidable.

There is only one reason why Jiraiya sticks here, and that is the extremely subtle words Orochimaru said last time: She is also an alien who obtained immortality in a similar way like me.

When he first met Orochimaru, Mercury Lamp did despise the other party's immortal reincarnation, and implicitly expressed that he had a better way. And there is no doubt that Orochimaru informed Jiraiya at the same time about this news that he thought was very interesting. That is to say, what Jiraiya wants to confirm now is whether the powerful and fierce enemy in front of him is the real person at all. What about someone's stand-in? !

If it is true, then whose substitute will she be? !

"Haha, you are so stubborn. In that case, I will work harder and send you off in advance... eh?"

Mercury Lantern is obviously aware of Jiraiya's thoughts. After all, he has learned the secret of the Tree of Flesh and the information about his 'cooperation' with people within the Leaf Village. If it is used as intelligence collection, both of these are shocking enough. Yes. But the other party still stayed here regardless of the risk to his life, which meant that he wanted to get more valuable information.

However, just when she was about to go all out, she was suddenly interrupted by a piece of news in her mind. This technique was left by Bai Hina in Konoha Village in advance as a means for him to contact her urgently. After confirming the few lines of information transmitted from the other party's mind, even Mercury Lamp twitched the corner of her mouth subconsciously. She had to say that this was an unexpected incident that she had not expected. Moreover, this unexpected incident would obviously cause Extremely dramatic subsequent developments.

If this was the case, there would be absolutely no benefit in killing Jiraiya in this area now. After all, this Sannin's identity can control the situation many times.

"It seems that something big has happened in Konoha Village, Lord Jiraiya. Although I really want to kill you here, with all due respect, you'd better go back to Konoha Village now."

Mercury Lamp narrowed his eyes slightly, and then formed a seal neatly. Along with the smoke, three former ninja shadows were directly summoned to this area, and they were too lazy to talk to these three living dead who did not work hard. Mercury Lamp spoke bluntly: "Drive him away! Kill him if you can! Protect the holy tree and the village with all your strength!"

After saying that, Mercury Lamp left the area instantly. Now was not the time to play with Jiraiya. She had to return to Konoha at this time to deal with this unexpected incident that she had not expected.

That is...

The fifth generation Hokage, Tsunade Senju, was assassinated inside the Hokage's office, and now... her life or death is unknown.

——————————

The air in the entire Konoha Village seemed to be frozen, and there were patrolling ANBU ninjas with livid faces everywhere, because just this morning, almost the worst thing happened to the Konoha Village, because after checking for many times in a row. When the sleepy Shizune pushed the Hokage's office, she was shocked to find that the fifth generation Tsunade Hime had fallen into a pool of her own blood. This assassination incident made the entire Konoha Village feel a deep crisis.

Under this situation, Kurohina had to give up her plan to kill Jiraiya and hurriedly returned to the main body. When she arrived at the door of the hospital, she found that Mito Kabuto and Koharu who had transferred to the hospital were already waiting here. On fire.

"You came just in time, Hinata-hime. The situation is urgent now, and it would be best for you to wait here."

Mito Kadobu's tone was as emotionless as ever, which made Hinata frown slightly, but she still asked: "How is the Fifth Daime's situation?"

"Rescue operations are underway now. Although we have ordered the village to be under martial law, it is difficult for us to attack your area. You should look within yourself."

After returning to bed, Xiaochun also spoke on the side, and the old man's answer was undoubtedly quite tricky. For ambitious subordinates, the most stressful time is not when the leader is still alive, but when the leader calls "life or death unknown." , because this time is undoubtedly the most turbulent period of power transfer, and it is also the most difficult to grasp. If we take action, if the leader survives, then the subordinates who act excessively will be seeking death.

And if we stand still, if the leader has already become a companion of salted fish like a certain first emperor of the Chinese dynasty, it will undoubtedly be a missed opportunity.

Even though Hinata was not interested in Naruto's position now, she still felt a rather tricky feeling. Now it's okay to regard the sleeping Koharu and Mito Monen as Zhao Gao and Li Si, because no one can be sure whether the so-called 'Fifth Generation Hokage's fate' in their mouths is true or false, and it's not easy to do anything about it. Fall out. Even though Tsunade herself, the Hokage, has as little real sense of existence as a big fat sheep, she is the orthodox Hokage after all, and her lineage and identity symbolize the general trend of Konoha Village.

But...it doesn't matter. For Hinata, she can seek stability at this time, but for another person, it may not be so easy to sit still.

Nodding as if nothing had happened, Hinata also spoke: "I understand, the Hyuga family and the Hinata group will conduct internal investigations and searches, and we will also dedicate manpower to assist the village in strengthening its defense."

Seeing that Hinata was so 'aware', Koharu nodded with satisfaction when he went to bed, and then said cryptically: "By the way, because of the poor defense, Shizune, the Jonin next to Tsunade-hime, and a team of ANBU who defended the Hokage Tower that night They have all been detained and processed, and even the Hokage cannot protect them, so there is no need for them."

This sentence is undoubtedly another trap, because no one can be sure whether Shizune and those Anbu saw anything that night. If it was the person who did this, he would definitely want to get rid of these ninjas who had been taken into custody, and this would be the person attracted by this bait.

But of course Hinata didn't care. After all, she did not know about this matter. The blackmailing method of sleeping with Koharu only made her raise her eyebrows slightly.

At this moment, very suddenly, the sound of a cane tapping the ground was heard at the entrance of Konoha Hospital, and this made the three Konoha elders who stayed here suddenly raised their heads.

Danzo Shimura, one of the disciples of the Second Generation, the biggest competitor of the Third Generation, the leader of the Gennin, and the leader of Akihabara, appears.

(PS1: Ah~~Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone, there are guests at home today, so the first update is a little late~~I wish everyone a happy and healthy family reunion~!)

(PS2: That’s true, there is no need to kill people indiscriminately in order to force blackening, not to mention that Jiraiya is still useful~)

who is the murderer

There is no doubt that Danzo's arrival directly made the air at the door of the emergency room tense. Looking left and right, Hinata took a step back as if nothing had happened, leaving the matter of facing Danzo to Koharu who was sleeping. After all, these three old guys are at the same level as Mito Monobu, no matter they are the same disciples of the Second-generation Hokage, or they have a friendship as classmates who have been together through life and death. So whether the old guys are going to fight each other or brag about each other, as young people it's best to leave room for them.

"How is Tsunade-hime doing?"

Sure enough, Danzo didn't bother to reminisce about the past, and just opened his mouth and went straight to the topic, while Mito Kadoyan stretched out his hand to push up his glasses, and then said: "The life and death are unknown, and rescue is being carried out now."

"Life or death unknown? That means she basically won't be able to take up important positions in Konoha in a short time, right?"

Mito Kaden's trick is good against young people. Even Hinata cannot question confidently due to lack of qualifications, but it is useless in front of an old guy like Danzo. This trick is left over from everyone's tricks. Yes, no one should be polite to anyone.

"It's hard to say. Tsunade-hime is the best medical ninja after all. Her vitality will not be so weak."

Seeing Danzo's unreasonable straight shot, Koharu who was sleeping on the side had no choice but to speak, but the former was obviously not interested in arguing with the two of them anymore, but simply turned around: "No matter what, we all need to Think about it carefully. Even the Hokage was assassinated. You all know what this means. If you have no objections, I am going to submit my name and start the selection meeting for the Sixth Hokage."

Obviously, Tsunade was suddenly assassinated at this time. This was undoubtedly an extremely suitable thing for Danzo, who was thinking about how to usurp the throne. According to Danzo's wisdom, he could not have guessed that he was eager to convene a meeting at this time. The Sixth Hokage selection meeting may have been questioned, but his ambition for that position still made him knowingly and intentionally act.

Watching Danzo leave, Hinata shook her head slightly: This old guy was obviously sure that she would not run for the Sixth Hokage, so she expressed her personal position in the most direct manner. This was to tell her clearly. She shouldn't mind her own business.

"That's fine, Hinata-hime, you have to be mentally prepared. The so-called leader refers to someone who can take charge at critical moments."

However, Koharu's tone when she went to bed was obviously a bit ambiguous. After all, it was impossible for her and Mito Kadoto to become Hokage. However, Danzo's beliefs that are contrary to both of them will definitely make Danzo's becoming Hokage of no benefit to them. If it were in the original work, that would be it. After all, Kakashi's qualifications at that time could not compete with Danzo. But now, although Hinata is junior, she has a lot of cards in her hand. If coupled with the full recommendation of Koharu and Mito Kaden, she might be able to compete with Danzo.

In this way, if Hinata becomes the Sixth Hokage, firstly because of her young age, and secondly because of her junior qualifications, Koharu and Mito Katobu will still have room to play, and they will not be like Danzo after becoming Hokage. Kick them both out of the house.

After all, Hinata's various previous performances, whether she was forming the Hinata group or actively developing Konoha's economy, all showed that she had a strong ambition. Plus, how many young people don't love power? This gave Koharu and Mito Kaden the confidence to use the position of Hokage as a bait to get her to take the bait.

Unfortunately, for Hinata, one thing she always remembers is to never believe in a good thing that falls for nothing. Unless it is a prey that she has caught herself, she should never swallow it easily.

"Of course, I'm from Konoha."

But on the surface, of course Hinata would not refuse directly. Instead, she nodded politely and left the emergency room. Since Danzo had already appeared and settled the matter, there was no need for her to stay here any longer. .

Moreover, the most important thing now is nothing else but to find the true process of Tsunade's assassination. After all, this incident was beyond her expectation, and it didn't look like Danzo sent someone to do it. Although Hinata thought that this guy might really take action, at least it wouldn't be so soon.

The problem is that Tsunade was assassinated very strangely. As a well-known medical ninja in the ninja world, she has almost no enemies. After all, no one wants to make enemies with doctors. So if there are no accidents, it can be ruled out as a vendetta. Then, now is the peace stage, and Konoha's military strength has not been lost. Tsunade was assassinated at this time, which has more of a morale-boosting effect on Konoha, turning Konoha from its original docile state to The powder keg that may explode at any time will make other villages carefully suppress the internal war faction, so as not to accidentally attract Konoha's hatred value and be benefited by other villages in vain, so it is unlikely to cause a big war. scale of war.

Therefore, it can basically be ruled out that it was Pain or Black Zetsu.

So, who is going to kill this blatantly harmless big fat sheep in Hokage? It should be noted that although this fat sheep is harmless, its power to smash people into pulp with one punch is not vegetarian. In addition, the location where the crime was committed is the Hokage's office. Needless to say how tightly guarded that place is. There are only a few ninjas of this level in this ninja world who have the strength to bypass those Anbu who are keeping vigil and leave in a swaggering manner after killing Tsunade.

Hinata stopped, the veins on both sides of her eyes suddenly stretched, and her white eyes had opened, and the place she wanted to look at was none other than the Hokage Building in the distance. It can be seen that although there are many ANBU deployed around the area at the moment, the buildings of the Hokage Building are still intact and do not appear to have been destroyed by the battle.

This phenomenon is even more interesting, because it means that their battle did not even leave the Hokage's office. In other words, Tsunade did not even have the strength to fight back with a punch. Otherwise, according to the strange power punch that Tsunade is famous for, even if it is just It wouldn't be a problem to demolish a fifth of the Hokage Building with just one punch to the floor or wall.

There are only two possibilities for a shadow-level strongman to not even be able to fight back. First: the perpetrator did not use conventional attack methods, but powerful illusions or special abilities, but the illusion or special abilities in Tsunade's hand could be used. , it’s really not easy to find one for a while.

Second: This person was very familiar to Tsunade, or at least pretended to be someone very familiar to Tsunade, so Tsunade was accidentally attacked.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the fact that a strong man of Tsunade's level was knocked down without even making a single move.
