Chapter 323 The reason, the recognition from Tsunade
What a joke!
As a grandfather, once he becomes a disciple of Senju Hashirama, does this kid intend to ride on everyone's head?
What's more, if Senju Hashirama accepts a disciple, Tsunade completely believes in the entire ninja world. People who want to become Senju Hashirama's disciples can line up from the east to the west of Konoha, even if Konoha is not big enough.
The stupid-looking guy in front of me doesn't rank well no matter how he looks at it.
The reason why Uchiha Madara and the first Mizukage Righto accepted Uchiha Sasuke and Hyuga Neji was because of some special circumstances.
What is the relationship between Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Sasuke?
Now the Uchiha clan has been exterminated, leaving only Uchiha Sasuke.
It is obviously impossible to leave the only child of your entire family in the enemy's camp.
Compared with the original work, when Uchiha Sasuke defected to join Orochimaru, everyone in Konoha was not very emotional at this moment.
Even Hatake Kakashi, the instructing Jonin of Team 7, has no other major emotions compared to the original novel, except that he feels a little guilty for letting Uchiha Sasuke leave.
In Kakashi Hatake's opinion, Uchiha Sasuke's life may not be in danger if he follows Uchiha Madara, but that may not be the case if he follows Orochimaru.
What's more, when Senju Hashirama-sama and Uchiha Madara are resurrected at the same time.
Uchiha Sasuke still stays in Konoha Village, which is not a particularly wise choice in itself.
As for Hyuga Neji, his matter is a bit special.
Of course, it's not that special in nature.
A genin from the Leaf Village.
Especially for families like the Hyuga clan, most of the means of later growth can only rely on the ninjutsu and techniques developed by Byakugan.
Faced with such a disadvantage, Hinata Neji knew this better than anyone else.
But even under such circumstances, Hyuga Neji still chose another path filled with too many uncertainties.
This goes far beyond simple courage...
Even though Tsunade knew from the information collected afterwards that the first Mizukage Uto had met Neji during the Chunin Exams.
And for this reason alone, Tsunade did not believe that someone like Xiang Youdou would make the decision to accept Hyuga Neci as a disciple just because he saw Hyuga Neji's relatively good chuunin competition.
Most likely, it was just a casual compliment.
And just because of this dispensable compliment, Hyuga Neji dared to make a gamble between life and death!
Courage, perseverance, perseverance, etc. are all indispensable!
In Tsunade's opinion, Uchiha Sasuke is at best a relatively talented ninja.
But Hyuga Neji is a true genius, because he has everything a genius needs. The only shortcoming may be that he has not grown up yet.
Every time Tsunade saw the information about Hyuga Neji, she couldn't help but feel a trace of regret deep in her heart. Konoha and even the Hyuga clan had lost a true genius!
"I refuse, and you are too noisy."
Faced with Naruto's almost unreasonable request, Tsunade naturally had no nonsense and stretched out her fist to calm Naruto down first.
With Naruto's current strength, even if Tsunade's punch didn't contain any killing intent, it was still enough to keep Naruto in bed for ten days and a half.
"The speed is so fast, there is no way to avoid it!"
Although he could obviously see Tsunade's movements, Naruto found that he couldn't avoid it at all, and could only watch the fist slowly enlarge in his eyes.
Just when Naruto was about to be hit, a figure appeared in front of Naruto and at the same time reached out casually to block Tsunade's punch.
"grandfather!"
Seeing this figure suddenly appear, Tsunade was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but said with dissatisfaction.
"You are the Hokage now, so you can't be as willful as before."
Senju Hashirama retracted his palm with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
Tsunade pouted, retracted her wrist, and then stood there with her hands folded in front of her chest.
At this time, Naruto also reacted and looked at Senju Hashirama standing in front of him, with an excited look on his face.
"Senju Hashirama-sama, please accept me as your disciple!"
Naruto's eyes showed an expectant look and he shouted loudly.
Hearing Naruto's shouting, Tsunade's eyelids twitched slightly: "You brat, you really don't want to give up. How could grandpa..."
Just as she was speaking halfway, Tsunade saw Senju Hashirama touching his chin with one hand, with a thoughtful look on his face, as if he was somewhat moved.
"grandfather!!"
Tsunade hurriedly shouted to Senju Hashirama, fearing that Senju Hashirama would have a brain cramp and accept Naruto as a genin.
You know, if Senju Hashirama really accepts Naruto as his disciple, in terms of seniority, all the senior officials in Konoha will be obviously inferior to Naruto.
What's more, Naruto's own background is a bit special, and coupled with his status as a Jinchuriki, he is a bit too sensitive.
If Senju Hashirama accepted Naruto as his disciple, this would not be a good thing for Naruto himself.
Just when the whole atmosphere was a little awkward.
A gentle cough came from outside the window of the Hokage's office.
Jiraiya touched his head and jumped in from the window with some embarrassment.
Tsunade glanced at Jiraiya, with a vicious look in her eyes.
"Hi, little Jiraiya."
Senju Hashirama looked at Jiraiya who jumped in from the window, smiled and said hello.
"Sexy Sento!" Naruto looked at Jiraiya who suddenly appeared with wide eyes, and couldn't help but let out a soft cry.
Obviously, apart from Naruto, both Tsunade and Senju Hashirama had already discovered that Jiraiya was outside.
Bang!
Hitting Naruto's head with a fist, Jiraiya looked at Naruto who was covering his head with some dissatisfaction:
"You brat, it's Toad Immortal!"
Naruto covered his head and let out a cry of pain. It seemed that he couldn't help but burst into tears due to the excessive pain.
Jiraiya looked at Senju Hashirama and Tsunade who were watching him opposite, and let out an awkward laugh.
Jiraiya has always been paying attention to Naruto's affairs, especially because Naruto suddenly found Tsunade this time, Jiraiya is also aware of it.
Jiraiya's original plan was to stay outside and watch the show, wait until Tsunade rejected Naruto, then show up and accept Naruto as a disciple.
However, with the appearance of Lord Senju Hashirama, Jiraiya's original plan was suddenly disrupted.
Of course, the reason why Jiraiya jumped out was not because he was worried that Naruto would be accepted as a disciple by Senju Hashirama.
If this is the case, Jiraiya is actually very happy. Although Jiraiya thinks that his strength is pretty good, compared with Senju Hashirama-sama, he is obviously not qualified.
What Jiraiya was worried about was that Naruto's messy character would make things troublesome.
What happened next became much simpler with the appearance of Jiraiya.
Although Senju Hashirama didn't care whether he accepted Naruto as his disciple, Tsunade didn't want it to be the case.
Through the collected information, both the first generation Mizukage Righto and Uchiha Madara seem to be collecting tailed beasts.
As the jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails, even for safety reasons, Naruto cannot be allowed to become too conspicuous.
The final result was naturally that Jiraiya accepted Naruto as his disciple, and Senju Hashirama agreed that Naruto could teach him.
This result surprised both Tsunade and Jiraiya. It seemed that Lord Senju Hashirama was more optimistic about Naruto than the two of them.
Present life.
Tsunade and Jiraiya stood on the big tree, calmly watching Naruto who was training below.
"Really, I don't understand why grandpa would like such an idiot."
"Becoming Hokage cannot be achieved by hard work. If you are not careful, you will die."
Tsunade straightened up and suddenly spoke.
Jiraiya frowned slightly and wanted to say something, but for a moment he didn't know how.
On the other side, Tsunade withdrew her gaze from Naruto and turned around to leave. After all, as Hokage, she had too many things to do.
I was able to take some time out to observe Naruto, a genin, because of my grandfather's relationship.
boom!!
An explosion suddenly came from below.
Naruto panted and looked at the ball that exploded in his hand, with a look of surprise on his face.
"It's...successful!"
Naruto murmured, his face full of exhaustion, and he lay on his back on the ground.
On the big tree.
Jiraiya also straightened up, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes, and spoke softly to Tsunade who was about to turn around and leave:
"It only took one week to complete the three stages of the Rasengan. It's really amazing."
"It seems that Senju Hashirama-sama has a very accurate vision. He is also a genius."
Hearing the triumphant laughter from behind, Tsunade twitched the corner of her mouth slightly, turned around, and looked back in the direction of Naruto.
"maybe."
There was a hint of complexity in Tsunade's eyes, and as soon as she finished speaking, her whole person disappeared.
