It was not until Orochimaru came closer out of concern and even couldn't suppress his murderous intent that Tsunade raised her head, revealing a tearful face.

When Orochimaru saw Tsunade's face, his heart skipped a beat.

This face is indeed Tsunade's, but this ninja is definitely not Tsunade. Tsunade definitely does not have such a mature and stable temperament, let alone such a fierce...

But before Orochimaru could attack, Tsunade jumped three feet high and poked her finger on Orochimaru's forehead, making him dizzy.

Answer Orochimaru's question?

Give me a shit answer!

Now it's Tsunade's turn to question Orochimaru, why is it the turn of this guy who made a big mistake to ask questions?

Tsunade put her left hand on her waist and pointed her right hand like a sword, pointing at Orochimaru and questioning, "Asshole Orochimaru, I handed my brother over to you, and this is how you protect him?"

Orochimaru was speechless: "I..."

Tsunade's eyes widened, and Orochimaru was immediately frightened and shut his mouth: "You still want to quibble?"

"My brother is the last direct descendant of my grandfather, the First Hokage, and the last direct descendant of the Senju clan. How dare you slack off in your protection of him while you're on the front lines of the war?"

"If I hadn't arrived in time, would Rope Tree have been nearly killed by the trap?"

"If I had come a little later, would Rope Tree have died in the trap?"

"Orochimaru! If Rope Tree dies, will you be worthy of me? Will you be worthy of Konoha Village?"

Each question was accompanied by a powerful poke of the finger, which made Orochimaru completely stunned.

Even though Orochimaru was relatively weak during the Second Shinobi World War, and was nowhere near as mature as he was in the next war, Tsunade's attacks were not fierce, and her speed was average, so she would definitely be able to dodge them if she dodged.

But Orochimaru, feeling guilty, did not hide. He even felt that being scolded and beaten by Tsunade would ease the pain in his heart a lot, and he would not feel that burning sensation so much.

Moreover, compared to the fingers driven by super strength, Orochimaru was more afraid of Tsunade's questioning, every question of which he was completely unable to answer.

The more Tsunade spoke, the more guilty Orochimaru felt, but strangely, he also felt relieved.

In particular, after Sheng Shu recovered, he hugged his sister's thighs, and while shedding tears of fear, he pretended to be strong to comfort his sister and help his teacher to defend himself.

"Sister, it's not Orochimaru-sensei's fault."

"I was too careless and carried away. I was wrong. If you want to hit me or scold me, go ahead!"

Tsunade's eyes glanced over, and the terrifying murderous aura made Nawaki's voice disappear immediately, and he stood there with his mouth open.

The woman with blond hair and twin ponytails exuded amazing charm and hellish rage. She said in the softest voice: "Nawoki, this is what you asked for."

Then there was a series of crackling sounds, and in a blink of an eye the rope tree turned into a pig's head, lying on the ground with its butt raised high. Its mouth and eyes were so swollen that it couldn't open them at all. It could only shed tears silently.

At this moment, Orochimaru's doubts about Tsunade's identity had long disappeared. Apart from Tsunade, who else could question him, Orochimaru, so confidently, and beat the rope tree so skillfully?

Look at where the fist lands, each time it accurately hits the most sensitive part of the rope tree. The power of each punch is just right to swell the skin without hurting the bones.

This must be a skill that can only be honed from childhood to adulthood.

Tsunade had finished beating Rope Tree, and her anger had mostly dissipated, but she hadn't finished her words yet.

"Orochimaru! You said that after seeing your parents' death, you had a profound understanding of the fragility of life. What a bullshit!"

"If you really care about your life, you will relax on the front line?"

"I know you feel wronged. Someone has figured out all your habits and taken advantage of you..."

"But so what?"

Tsunade stared at Orochimaru fiercely, making him tremble with fear, and then said word by word: "If it weren't for me! Rope Tree would have died right under your nose!"

“Dead!!”

The blood color on Orochimaru's face suddenly faded, his face became as pale as a dead person, and even emitted a blue deathly glow.

His entire body was trembling, but the murderous aura was so strong that it could not be dispelled.

At this time, Tsunade suddenly grabbed Rope Tree, pushed her brother to the side of Orochimaru, and said loudly: "Don't say I didn't give you a chance, Orochimaru, Rope Tree is your disciple, you must protect him!"

Orochimaru's pupils dilated, like a Chinese rural cat eating watermelon for the first time, and he stared at Tsunade blankly, but his hand immediately went to Nawaki's shoulder.

Although he didn't grab it hard, the veins on the back of his hand were bulging.

Tsunade saw Orochimaru's performance, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Don't let me down again, Orochimaru."

After saying that, she turned and left.

Orochimaru looked at her back and asked in a hoarse voice: "Tsunade, what are you going to do?"

Tsunade waved her hands, "I'm going to go after the guy who set the trap, I'm going to kill him!"

Orochimaru's eyes were dazed, but in the end he said nothing, nor did he catch up with Tsunade. Instead, he held tightly to Rope Tree who wanted to catch up.

"You just carelessly caused your sister to get hurt, are you going to be willful again?"

"Naoki, you still have a mission, you still have responsibilities, you are already a ninja, you are no longer qualified to be willful!"

"Now, follow me to complete the task, and then go back!"

Listening to Orochimaru scolding Nawaki from afar, Tsunade smiled. She actually believed very much in Orochimaru's ability and believed that he could protect Nawaki.

This time it was an accident, but it was more of a targeted conspiracy. Orochimaru and Nawaki were targeted.

Tsunade's eyes became sharp, she didn't just arrive.

Because Uchiha You specifically gave her a month's notice, she arrived at the scene fifteen days in advance and witnessed with her own eyes how the four ninjas who set the trap carefully designed and placed the trap.

Looking at the information about Orochimaru they brought out, Tsunade was shocked.

Someone actually managed to get such detailed information. They could even describe Orochimaru's observation habits and the flaws in his techniques for judging traps.

She even believed that if these ninjas chose Orochimaru as their target, they might be able to succeed, or at least injure Orochimaru.

The ninja without any identity symbol and without wearing a forehead protector is so powerful that he completely controls Orochimaru.

Tsunade did not take down these ninjas on the spot because her first goal was to protect Rope Tree's safety, not to take down these enemies.

But she also didn't want to let the enemy go, so she made some improvised powder and sprinkled it on them with the wind.

These powders are colorless, odorless, and have no harmful effects. They will only stimulate the human body's epidermal cells after a few days, causing the pores to secrete slightly more oil.

Then these oils will contain some special proteins, which will combine with human sweat and turn into a hidden smell, a gas that humans cannot smell.

But Tsunade has a way to use another spray potion to make the gas visible and thus track the whereabouts of these ninjas.

Now, she has saved Nawaki's life, and after being stimulated, Orochimaru has a clear understanding of Nawaki's condition, and his brother's safety is guaranteed.

It's time to track down those enemies, identify them, and make those who murdered my brother pay the price.

Among the three ninjas of Konoha, Tsunade has never been known for her strong fighting ability, but that is only because Orochimaru and Jiraiya are too strong, not because Tsunade is too weak.

Especially since the current Tsunade is from the 46th year of Konoha, her tactical system has long been complete and mature, and her physical condition is also at the peak of her prime. Her strength is not comparable to Orochimaru or Jiraiya from the 32nd year of Konoha.

Perhaps in the current Konoha Village, only the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and Hatake Sakumo can be slightly better than Tsunade, but in a life-and-death battle, Tsunade is also confident that she can kill two Kage-level ninjas.

After all, she has completed her final secret technique: Ninjutsu · Creation Regeneration · Hundred Healings Technique

With this technique, Tsunade can achieve the goal of "ninjas never die in battle", can use desperate tactics without restraint, and can die together with the enemy without any scruples.

Then the enemy died and she lived.

Tsunade followed the traces of the powder she had prepared, and she felt more and more disappointed as she walked, because the traces pointed directly to Konoha Village without any turning points.

Less than a hundred kilometers away from Konoha Village, Tsunade finally caught up with the group of ninjas.

They were resting, drinking water and eating ration pills, and their number had increased to eight.

These ninjas wore Konoha's standard smocks, forehead protectors engraved with the Konoha emblem, and masks with intricate patterns, revealing their identities without any concealment.

The Root Ninja that belongs exclusively to Shimura Danzo.

Tsunade's hands were shaking, and she had to clench her teeth as hard as she could to prevent herself from fighting out of anger.

The one who wanted to kill Nawaki was actually a Root ninja, Danzo Shimura. So how deeply was her teacher, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, involved in this?

As the Third Hokage, theoretically, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew everything about Konoha Village.

But he did not pursue Danzo Shimura's crimes later, at least he did not punish Danzo publicly and forcefully.

In other words, either Sarutobi Hiruzen is a loser who had no idea from the beginning to the end that Danzo Shimura was the murderer of Nawaki.

Either Sarutobi Hiruzen found out later, but let Shimura Danzo go for the sake of the "overall situation".

Or...

It was Sarutobi Hiruzen who gave the will to the village Danzo who did it!

For some reason, Tsunade imagined her teacher to be in the worst possible situation.

This cannot be blamed on Tsunade. It was Sarutobi Hiruzen who preached the spirit of fire every day and kept saying that those who hurt Konoha ninjas were traitors, but he did the exact opposite.

After all, the existing evidence proves that either he spared Danzo Shimura, who killed Rope Tree, or he ordered the killing of Rope Tree.

Tsunade shuddered at the thought of such a person, who spoke righteous words every day.

The more respect she had for Sarutobi Hiruzen in the past, the stronger her feeling of disgust towards him now, and the hatred that she could not suppress at all!

At this moment, Tsunade's emotions reached their peak, activating the mark on the back of her right hand. Countless runes unfolded from the back of her hand, almost covering her entire right arm.

At the same time, a voice sounded in Tsunade's mind:

[Emotional anger has reached the threshold, the Ninja Assist system is activated, and the system data is initialized. Please wait.]

Such a sudden change stunned Tsunade, and immediately calmed her emotions that were on the verge of exploding due to hatred, and also restored her angry brain's ability to think.

[Information initialization completed...]

【Data analysis completed...】

[Conclusion: Nawaki's death was definitely a conspiracy, and the probability that Shimura Danzo was the murderer is 99.7%. ]

[The probability that the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen knew about this is 100%. ]

[The probability of the murder being planned by the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen is 7.5%.]

[Host Tsunade, do you want to listen to the system's advice? ]

Tsunade was stunned. She was stunned for a long time before she asked carefully, "Are you the system? The system that Uchiha Yuu was talking about?"

【Yes.】

[This system was created by Uchiha Yuu, and is an auxiliary system specifically used for administration and human analysis. ]

"What can you do?"

[Assist the host to collect intelligence, analyze political and economic situations, and give advice. ]

Tsunade asked, "So what is your suggestion?"

【Collect evidence, then retreat.】

[After waiting for five years, resolve Kato Dan's death crisis, contact Hatake Sakumo through Kato Dan, and wait until the White Fang incident breaks out before officially launching the attack! ]

Tsunade was immediately tempted, but she still had a trace of rationality, so she said: "System, your suggestion is contrary to what Uchiha Yuu warned me not to interfere too much in the past and not to establish too close a relationship with people from the past."

[The principle of this system's suggestions is based on the host's wishes, rather than executing the will of the creator. ]

Tsunade was happy, this was good.

If the system suggested that she ignore the matter and prioritize successfully returning to the original time, she would probably be provoked to rebel.

Tsunade will probably take action immediately and capture these ninjas.

Then, regardless of anything, he took the captives and evidence and went straight to the Hokage Building of Konoha Village, demanding an explanation from the Third Hokage.

But the system's advice really suits her wishes: either don't do it, or do it to the extreme.

As long as we are patient for a few years, we can finally expose this matter to the light of day and get to the bottom of it. We can also truly understand the Third Hokage and whether he is an incompetent wimp or a black-hearted hypocrite.

Tsunade made a decision quickly. She asked, "System, what kind of evidence can you collect?"

[The evidence currently collected by the system is as follows:]

[The entire process of the Root Ninja setting the trap can be played in the form of a video. 】

[The dialogue between the Root Ninjas discussing the failed assassination attempt on Rope Tree can be played in video format. 】

[In the second piece of evidence, the Root Ninja clearly mentioned that they were acting on orders and that failure would disappoint Shimura Danzo.]

Tsunade nodded, lost in thought.

Until the Root Ninjas finished their rest and set out towards Konoha Village again, Tsunade just watched quietly and did not launch an attack.

Although she didn't say anything, her actions made her decision very clear.

[The host has made a decision and is destined to establish an effective connection with this time and space from now on. Therefore, you don’t have to hide in an uninhabited area for the next few years. You can contact the Senju clan as needed. ]

Tsunade was shocked by the system's additional suggestion and couldn't help asking, "Is it really okay? Is it really okay for me to do this kind of activity?"

[According to the data information of this system, the host saved the life of Sheng Shu, but it does not mean that Sheng Shu avoided the fate of death at the time of the host. ]

[Your behavior means that this space-time has become independent, and has severed its direct connection with the host's space-time, becoming two parallel space-times.]

[No matter what you do now, it will not have any adverse effects on yourself. ]

Tsunade understood, but she also heard something wrong, so she asked again: "It won't affect me, which means there is still an impact, could it be..."

[Yes, according to the existing data, the one who bears the consequences of your actions splitting the space-time is Uchiha Yu, the creator of this system. ]

Tsunade was stunned. This system actually betrayed its creator without hesitation. It was really... too trustworthy.

Whenever Tsunade thought of Uchiha You being in trouble and checking things in confusion but having no idea what he was doing, she couldn't help laughing.

When she laughed enough, all the negative emotions in her heart disappeared.

She said to herself, "In that case, I will first find a place, have a good drink, soak in a hot spring, wash myself clean, and then go find the old guys in the family."

"When Shengshu died, they all wilted like dry leaves. Now that Shengshu survived the attack, I believe the old guys will move."

…

The secret realm of Loulan is gone.

Just a few minutes ago, when Uchiha You was about to conduct another animal experiment, time ripples suddenly appeared at the World Gate.

In just a few seconds, the time ripples developed into earthquakes, followed by a loud explosion.

Just as Miwa Masayo was most worried about, the huge explosion was more powerful than the last time, and the explosion range exceeded the area of ​​the secret realm.

In the end, the huge power of the explosion tore apart the dome of the Loulan Secret Realm, and the power of time contained in the explosion eliminated the time dislocation that had increased to 15 seconds.

The secret realm of Loulan thus disappeared.

Fortunately, during these few months, the time dislocation in the Loulan Secret Realm increased from just over 7 seconds to a full 15 seconds, and the power of the explosion was mostly consumed.

The explosive storm that broke through the secret realm of Loulan no longer had much power. It only shattered the remaining glass in the ruins of Loulan, set off an instantaneous gale of level 12, and created a cloud of dust that spread for more than ten kilometers.

Fortunately, there are not many people in Loulan Kingdom now, so the impact of this storm is very small.

Only the Uchiha ninja who was recruited by Uchiha Yu to work on the project was startled by the sudden incident, and the children of the Snow Clan in the nearby Snow Village saw the dust.

But Uchiha Yu and Miwa Masayo were frightened. When the explosion happened, they teleported out of the secret realm respectively, but they could not escape the fate of being covered in dust.

After returning to Loulan, Miwa Masayo asked in shock: "You, what happened meow? Or did you do some dangerous experiment again meow?"

"Could you please not make surprise attacks next time? All my treasures have been destroyed."
