RoU Chapter 138: The duties of the Hokage
🕑 Added 2023-12-17 05:51:29 +0000 UTCDue to the leak of information on the fronts against Kumogakure and Kirigakure, more pressure was placed on the already weak Konoha.
"This can't go on like this!" Tsunade saw it very clearly but could only curse Shimura Danzo and Natsuo for causing so much trouble.
Apart from that, she couldn't do much...
Because the manpower in the village is really tight! Now Konoha is outnumbered!
Although they still have the forces of ordinary ninjas, the problem is that they lack high-level ninjas who can go to the front.
At this time, Nara Shikaku and others once again suggested using Natsuo.
"Natsuo-sama was just blinded by anger, and his actions are understandable." Nara Shikaku advised earnestly. "I hope Hokage-sama can understand Uchiha's predicament and, considering Uchiha's contributions to Konoha, deal with him leniently and let him redeem himself."
Tsunade wanted to continue refusing. However, as the situation in the war changed, Tsunade has enough excuses for Natsuo to redeem himself for his foolishness without affecting Konoha's public opinion.
During dinner that day, Tsunade said to Natsuo: "Natsuo, now you realize how much trouble your actions caused."
Natsuo responded nonchalantly, "Yes, I realize that."
Hearing Natsuo's tone, Tsunade's expression changed, but she still said: "Since you recognize your mistake, I will forgive you this time. Go to the battlefield against Kirigakure and redeem yourself."
"Why should I redeem myself?" Natsuo looked at Tsunade indifferently. "Shimura Danzo deserved death and everyone knows it. As for killing the member of the Shimura clan, at most I can give them compensation, if they still insist on continuing to look for a culprit I will simply threaten them so that they will drop the matter."
Tsunade's heart skipped a beat. Not good!
The concept that a Konoha shinobi should serve Konoha was deeply ingrained in her heart, and she had never encountered someone like Natsuo who didn't care about Konoha.
But Tsunade recovered quickly, seeing that Natsuo didn't care about Konoha, she tried to offer him benefits. "What price do you want to go to the battlefield?" Tsunade's expression was solemn.
There are a limited number of Kage-level ninjas in Konoha. Unless Tsunade herself acts personally, the only person who can be mobilized is Natsuo.
"What do you think?" Natsuo chuckled, his eyes scanning Tsunade's body.
"You..." Tsunade immediately understood that Natsuo wanted her to have another child. Then she became angry and raised her fist.
Natsuo didn't mind, after defending against each attack, he just smiled and walked to the side. Don't be fooled by Tsunade's exaggerated reaction now, but given the current situation, she will compromise sooner or later.
Why should he sacrifice himself for the Land of Fire without receiving anything in return? Did Konoha cease to exist just because the other nations took territory from the Land of Fire? The only ones who benefit or harm from this war are the Daimyos.
Natsuo continued to stay calmly at Tsunade's house, without any rush. He could use this time to accompany Hikari.
Natsuo really doesn't need to be in a hurry to get involved in this war. All of his wives have already separated from the Konoha ninja combat system and now the Uchiha clan's business is not only limited to the Land of Fire, so this war will not affect his lifestyle. Plus all the people Natsuo cares about are in the Uchiha clan residence and Konoha will not be destroyed by this war. No matter how cruel the war is, it has nothing to do with him.
While Natsuo was in Konoha waiting for Tsunade's response, Ichikishimahime and Tagorihime also gave birth. So Natsuo went to Ryuchi Cave to pick up his children.
The two Snake Princesses gave birth to a total of seven children, of which two were highly talented and gave great reward.
[Offspring +1, the comprehensive potential evaluation is 195, you receive Chakra +17, Kekkei Genkai: Shizenchikara.]
[Offspring +1, the comprehensive potential evaluation is 191, you receive Chakra +17, Sage Art Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands.]
As Natsuo received the rewards he thought: 'The Ryuchi Cave is truly my sacred land, I directly obtained one of the most powerful Wood Release along with a very useful Kekkei Genkai.'
The Kekkei Genkai: Shizenchikara, is an instinctive ability that allows the user to absorb and make use of natural energy without any training in senjutsu. It is very similar to the Kekkei Genkai that Jugo's clan had, the only difference is that it does not have side effects, such as mental instability.
Combined with the Kekkei Genkai: Renshu no Kankei, Natsuo can now eventually allow his wives to also practice Senjutsu.
'Although the Snake Princesses are Kage level, apparently surpassing the potential of 200 is very difficult, and requires a lot of luck or a very powerful bloodline, as in the case of Tsunade.' Natsuo mused in his mind. 'At the moment I believe that my wives who do not possess a powerful bloodline or much power can begin to become stronger with the new abilities I gained before continuing to have children. I should also use this time for Yugao and my other wives who I taught Sun Breathing to develop their own Breathing Style.'
Natsuo decided to increase the 'physical bond' with his wives during this period in order to strengthen them as quickly as possible with the Renshu no Kankei. But I also can't stop working hard to revive the Uchiha clan. So Natsuo decided to take the time to visit Ryuchi Cave and inject 'vitality' into the Snake Princesses.
After all, when he got the Snake Princesses pregnant back then his power wasn't as strong as it is now.
Who knows, with all the rewards I got there will probably be some kids with a potential of over two hundred.
A few more days passed.
Tsunade made efforts to mobilize troops and sent reinforcements.
But the situation got even worse. The front against Kirigakure was on the verge of collapse.
Nara Shikaku and other high-ranking officials repeatedly asked Tsunade to send Natsuo to the battlefield. At first they try to persuade Tsunade, but as the situation on the battlefield became more unfavorable, they began to demand that Tsunade issue the mobilization order.
Tsunade was in a difficult position. It's not that she didn't want him to go, but he himself didn't want to go!
She couldn't even tell them that the condition Natsuo set to be able to go to the battlefield was that she had a child for him. Unless she wants Uchiha and Konoha to separate again.
"Damn it! It was Natsuo who caused this mess, why do I have to be so troubled?"
Tsunade became more and more angry the more she thought about it, and she felt more and more at a disadvantage the more she stepped back. In her anger, she wanted to go into battle directly, but was forcefully restrained by everyone.
Konoha now faces pressure from multiple fronts, unlike other ninja villages that only suffer pressure from one battlefield. If the Hokage appears on a battlefield, that battlefield naturally becomes stable. But what about the other places?
When they know that Konoha's last defense, the Hokage, is no longer in the village, the other ninja villages will definitely break loose and launch a full-scale attack!
Tsunade had several exchanges with Natsuo, but each time they ended on bad terms.
Even as they talked more and more, Natsuo's demands became even higher!
From the initial: Help me have a child...
To later: Help me have a few children...
This made Tsunade extremely angry, and every time they communicated, it ended with her losing her temper and resorting to violence.
But during this time, as Konoha retreated step by step, Iwagakure finally couldn't take it anymore and launched an attack on Konoha.
Tsunade finally had to compromise.
"Alright! You win!"
Tsunade was full of anger, her chest heaving, attracting Natsuo's gaze.
"If you can deal with Kirigakure, I will accept your conditions!"
"Are you satisfied now?"
Natsuo smiled faintly, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "Deal!"
