"Chaos? He needs time to create chaos!" At this point, Tian Qi also thought of Danzo's ending in the original work. That suicidal sealing was actually a good ending for him.
"What do you mean by that?" Tsunade looked puzzled again, completely not understanding what Tianqi meant.
"Danzo's position as Hokage will definitely not last long, no more than a month or two at most. He can't stay in this position for long either; this era is no longer suitable for him!"
"Well then... if that's the case, I'll just pretend and fulfill his wish!" After hearing Tianqi say that Danzo would only be in power for about a month, Tsunade thought about it and agreed.
"Thank you, Tsunade. I, Uchiha Tenchi, really owe you so much!" Looking at Tsunade, Tenchi felt guilty. He had a clear conscience towards everyone except his wife, Tsunade.
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to know this. I thought you were always coming and going and that I didn't have a place in your heart anymore!" Tsunade looked at Tianqi with a teasing expression.
"Although I came and went in a hurry, my heart was full of thoughts about you and the children. You will always hold the most important place in my heart!" Tianqi said, patting the two people dressed as secret agents beside him.
"Mother, Grandma, are you alright?" Chiyu and Itachi stepped forward and greeted them warmly.
"You are... you are Chiyu and... Itachi, right?" Tsunade knew Chiyu, but was a little unsure about the other person's identity.
“It’s my grandma!” Itachi said, gently lifting the mask on his face to reveal his appearance before quickly putting it down again.
"It really is my grandson who's back! It really is my grandson who's back! Good, good, good!" Tsunade was excited again when she saw Itachi's expression.
After Tsunade and her grandson and son calmed down, she finally remembered that Konoha was currently being invaded by enemies. She immediately asked, "What happened to Garuda? Did you deal with Pain?"
Faced with Pain's overwhelming strength, Tsunade placed all her hopes on Garuda and Naruto, as she couldn't rely on anyone else.
Faced with Tsunade's question, Garuda turned her gaze to Tianqi. She had just killed a puppet but was trapped and died. She didn't know what Pain's situation was now, so she could only ask Tianqi.
At this moment, Tianqi also stepped forward.
"Ahem, well, the Pain matter has been handed over to Naruto. I saw several puppets being dealt with earlier, and Naruto should be on his way to negotiate with the person controlling the puppets right now!"
"Yes, Lady Tsunade, Naruto is leading my little clones towards the mountains dozens of kilometers outside Konoha!" Slug was certain that what Tianqi said was true.
"I see. Naruto is definitely the one you can rely on in crucial moments, unlike someone who disappears at the most critical time!" Tsunade stared intently at Tianqi when she said "someone," clearly referring to him.
"Cough cough..." After being told that by Tsunade, Tianqi could only cough lightly to cover up his embarrassment.
Although the puppet Pain was defeated, Tsunade, thinking of the mastermind behind it all, murmured worriedly, "The person behind the scenes who can control such a powerful puppet as Pain must be incredibly strong. I wonder if Naruto can handle him..."
"Don't worry about that, I believe Naruto can handle the person behind it all!"
"Don't worry? I'd be worried if Naruto had your strength. What are you doing here like a big shot? Go protect Naruto, you unreliable jerk!"
"There's no need for protection. Some things can only be done by Naruto to achieve the desired effect. If I go, it might just be another tragedy!" Thinking of Nagato and Konan, Tianqi shook his head helplessly. They were all children persecuted by war, and no one could say who was right or wrong. You can't advise others to be kind if you haven't experienced their suffering.
"What do you mean by 'effects'? Naruto is Kushina's son, and her only one. If he dies because of your failure to provide timely reinforcements, Kushina will blame you for the rest of her life. You'll be living with deep guilt!"
"Hehe, let's talk about that when the time comes. I trust Naruto much more than you do. I have confidence in Naruto as a future Hokage candidate!"
"Reserve Hokage! How did you know about this?" Tsunade was somewhat surprised to see Tian Qi as Naruto being a reserve Hokage, as this was just her own idea and she hadn't told anyone else.
"You've given Naruto all sorts of preferential treatment; anyone with eyes can see how good you are to him. Don't tell me it's just because you're kind to him!"
“Naruto will definitely be the most suitable Hokage in the future. I am very relieved to entrust my grandfather’s most precious things to him. However, he still has a long way to go before that…” As she spoke, Tsunade’s image of her younger brother Nawaki overlapped with Naruto’s in her mind. Every time she saw Naruto, it was as if she saw her younger brother Nawaki. No one else could understand that kind of feeling.
"By the way, what's the situation in the village now? Are the casualties serious?"
"It's quite serious. The buildings are basically all destroyed, there are probably several hundred dead, and countless others are injured, both seriously and lightly. The losses are quite substantial!" Garuda said calmly, describing the situation.
When Tsunade heard about the situation in the village, her eyes widened in disbelief. "How could so many people have died? Weren't the slugs protecting them? What happened to the slugs?!"
"Lady Tsunade, I..."
Before the slug could finish speaking, Tianqi interrupted, "This can't be blamed on the slug. There are some people the slug can't protect, and the Nine-Tailed Fox went berserk for a while. The slug's abilities are limited. Besides, without you, the slug can exert even less power. It's already at its limit that it hasn't disappeared!"
"The Nine-Tails went berserk!!!" Tsunade was shocked to hear that the Nine-Tails had gone berserk.
"Yes, Lady Tsunade, it was thanks to your full power that I was able to save so many people from Pain's wide-range attacks. But later, the Nine-Tails' power became too violent, and my connection with you weakened. I really..." Slug said, lowering her head.
"This can't be blamed on you, Slug..." Tsunade thought of what Tianqi had just said and asked with a puzzled look, "By the way, what did you mean by 'some people'?"
"What else could it mean? It's just the literal meaning. There are some people that even a slug can't protect, like Kakashi and Shizune. But don't panic. I said before that only Naruto can achieve the best results. Just wait and see!" As he said this, Tianqi's lips curled into a strange, sly smile.
When Tsunade heard the first half of Tianqi's sentence, her heart jumped, but after hearing the second half and seeing Tianqi's inexplicable smile, she suddenly felt that there was still a chance to salvage the situation.
