Chapter 335: It Feels Like a Long Time Since We Met
In this way, more than half a year passed in a flash. Uchiha Mai bid farewell to Konoha in Kirigakure Village for 46 years.
This is also the only Spring Festival that he did not spend in Konoha.
In order to let the people of Kirigakure Village forget the pain of war, Uchiha Mai imitated Konoha's "Village Evening" and also held a village evening in Kirigakure Village.
And he personally went on stage and sang a song "Don't Fail the Sudden Rain".
As a popular manga, the animation of "Naruto" has actually changed many OPs, and the most famous one must be "Blue Bird".
"Don't Fail the Sudden Rain" is the opening song of episodes 527-552. It has a fast rhythm and is catchy, which is deeply loved by Uchiha Mai.
The reason why this song left a deep impression on Uchiha Mai is mainly because when "Don't Fail the Sudden Rain" was the OP, there was a flash of the opening animation, and the bangs of Mei Terumi were blown up.
It was less charming and more heroic, which was impressive.
The evening party of Kirigakure became colorful because of Uchiha Mai. Correspondingly, the evening party of Konoha Village without Uchiha Mai became dull.
There were only some performances that had been performed many times, and the performances were old wine in new bottles, which made people completely uninterested.
The people all missed Konoha's dance king and singing god.
Tsunade also missed Uchiha Mai.
With the addition of Kakuzu, the strength of Konoha's various fronts reached a certain balance. Under ideal conditions, it could hold back several major ninja villages and maintain it for at least another three years.
With strong logistical support capabilities, this Ninja World War was dragged to an end.
Kumogakure launched an attack on Konoha about four years ago, Iwagakure was about half a year later than Kumogakure, and Sandgakure was about a year later than Iwagakure.
These ninja villages are almost at their limit at this moment, because the long-term tug-of-war has exhausted the village strength.
Some time ago, because of Kakuzu's joining, several major ninja villages felt the crisis and launched a fierce attack. After a long time of attack, the offensive was weakened again, and the offensive was even weaker than before the fierce attack.
The major ninja villages can no longer afford it.
The daimyo of the major ninja countries is similar to the emperor of the book. The line will never change. They don't have a strong desire to expand their territory because they are originally a family.
Even if the four major ninja villages destroy Konoha, or Konoha unifies the ninja world, the daimyo will still eat and drink, and can still live a life of luxury.
The major ninja villages that are fighting have the support of the daimyo behind them. This support is not given by the daimyo, but asked by the ninja village to the daimyo.
The excessive demands for several consecutive years have made the sponsors of the major ninja villages tired of it.
There is no benefit if you win, and there is no benefit if you lose. If you continue to fight, I have to pay. What's the point of fighting?
The sponsors continue to reduce their financial support, and the major ninja villages are now fighting for their family assets, which have been accumulated over the past ten years.
As long as it takes another two years, the major ninja villages will stop fighting and retreat.
But Tsunade is not satisfied with this.
As a medical ninja, Tsunade is more sensitive to the casualties of ninjas. After taking office as the acting Hokage, she can also access more information.
Hundreds of dead and seriously injured ninjas every month are just numbers in the eyes of well-informed and indifferent politicians.
In Tsunade's eyes, they are living lives and families that have become broken.
Tsunade can't wait to end this protracted war and put an end to this third meat grinder in the ninja world.
"Ahhhh!!!!!!"
"It's so annoying, when will the war end!"
Tsunade spread her arms, stood in front of the French window of the Hokage's office, and shouted at the Hokage Rock to express her unhappiness.
Behind Tsunade, two Hokage advisors stood, with helpless expressions on their masks.
There is a saying that the appearance is determined by the heart, and to a certain extent, the heart is also determined by the appearance.
Tsunade, who has always maintained her youthful appearance and was forced to serve as the acting Hokage, is very reliable, but she still has a childish side in many cases.
"Hokage, when the war will end is not something we can decide.
The three major ninja villages of Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Sandgakure are still determined to destroy Konoha, and they are reluctant to retreat, so the war will naturally not end."
Utatane Koharu reminded her. Compared with half a year ago, she had a few more wrinkles on her face, and there was a bit of envy in her eyes when she looked at Tsunade's back.
Why can't I learn the Yin seal technique?
Tsunade turned her head and stared at Koharu Utatane, and corrected him: "Elder Koharu, please call me Acting Hokage.
If the old man hadn't forced me to act as Hokage, I wouldn't have taken on such a troublesome job as Hokage. It's really troublesome.
After the war is over, whoever is willing to take on the position, Orochimaru, Namikaze Minato, or Uchiha Mai, can take it.
Anyway, I will never be Hokage."
It is very important to add the word "acting" or not.
"Yes, Acting Hokage." Koharu Utatane repeated.
"In fact, it is not impossible to end the war immediately."
Mitomono En suddenly opened his mouth and threw out a topic, diverting the attention of the two people and resolving the awkwardness of the partners' oral language.
Tsunade narrowed her eyes and said: "You mean, Uchiha Mai?"
"Exactly."
Mitomono En nodded and said: "Before, our three fronts were in danger and could collapse at any time. The biggest problem is Uchiha Mai.
He ignored the safety of Konoha in order to cultivate his own power and wasted too much energy in the Hidden Mist Village.
Although he sent a strong man like Kakuzu to help the Sunagakure front and solved Konoha's urgent need, he did not solve the problem fundamentally.
Kakuzu's strength is still a bit different from Uchiha Mai.
Our current situation is that the strongest person is already in the formation, but he is not used well. As long as he returns, he will be no less powerful than a village shadow. "
Mitomon Yan's words still have the intention of excluding Uchiha Mai.
Du Yuesheng said that the club is the chamber pot of politics.
For the Hokage family, especially the second generation of disciples, such as Sarutobi Hiruzen, Mitomon Yan, Koharu, Danzo, etc., the Uchiha is also like this.
Use it when you need it, and kick it under the bed when you don't need it.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, a senior politician, is better. When he uses it, he will pretend to be good to you. The other three people use it while scolding.
Tsunade has high hopes for Uchiha Mai, and because of her long-term opposition, the authorities are confused and the bystanders are clear. Tsunade's vision is not limited by one village or one country.
In Tsunade's view, Uchiha Mai is the person who is most likely to correct the world and end this endless spiral of contradictions after the two heroes of the ninja world.
Therefore, Tsunade naturally does not want Uchiha Mai to be slandered, and she defends him by saying: "Mai cultivates the Hidden Mist Village, and naturally he has his considerations.
When he is free, he will naturally return to Konoha, fight back on the front line, and lead Konoha to counterattack the three major ninja villages.
Two elders, slandering others behind their backs is not a sign of magnanimity and cultivation, and you have done this more than once.
Some things, you can actually say to his face. Maybe he will respect you and then reflect on himself and make corrections? "
The corners of their mouths twitched. Tsunade, as a descendant of the Senju clan, was not on Konoha's side.
In addition, saying bad things about Uchiha Mai in front of him may have been okay before, but now they don't have the courage.
Ever since Uchiha Mai single-handedly broke through the Hidden Mist Village, killed two Mizukages in a row, and subdued Kakuzu, he has completely established the title of the strongest in the ninja world.
If it weren't for the fear of Uchiha Mai, the major ninja villages would not have suddenly launched a fierce attack before.
In the ninja world and Konoha, power may be important, but the most important thing is to be brave. What is important is always strength. If you have enough strength, you have the capital to overturn the table.
Even in terms of power, Uchiha Mai is above them.
The head of the first family in the ninja world, the five-star Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village, has a status comparable to the Kage of a village.
Although he is still the head of the Hollow Department of Konoha in name, he has jumped out of the chessboard of Konoha and become one of the few chess players in the ninja world.
Even if he kills the two Hokage advisors in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, whether Sarutobi Hiruzen is willing to turn against him is still unknown.
"I hope so."
The two Hokage advisors sighed and chose to follow their hearts.
"Dong, Dong, Dong..."
While the three were chatting, there was a sudden rapid knock on the door.
"Come in." Tsunade immediately tidied up her appearance and entered the state of acting Hokage.
Kakashi, one of the captains of the Hollow Department, the liaison between Konoha and Hidden Mist, and the acting Hokage's official lackey, pushed the door open and entered, looking quite excited.
"Acting Hokage, great joy, great joy! "
Kakashi skipped the two Hokage advisors and reported the good news to Tsunade.
In the original plot, Kakashi served as Hokage for a period of time after the Fourth War, and put Konoha, which was in a state of disrepair, in order. He definitely had political ability and sense.
Kakashi grew older and was often with the Hokage, and he also learned a lot of inside information.
Hatake Sakumo and Uchiha Mai were not on good terms with Danzo. Danzo was very close to the two Hokage advisors, who liked to intervene in everything but had no strength...
Kakashi looked down on these two advisors.
"What good news?
Could it be that your master's wife Kushina is pregnant?" Tsunade asked.
Minato had been away for four years, and it was indeed possible that Kushina was pregnant.
After all, Minato had the Flying Thunder God Technique, and he often returned to Konoha to report the situation on the front line to the Hokage.
The battle was not so intense recently. There were several times when Minato came back, and Tsunade approved him a few days of vacation so that he and Kushina could reunite.
"It's a big happy event. "
Kakashi said cheerfully: "The Minister has returned to Konoha, and the Ninja World War may soon be over."
Uchiha Mai said that one must be qualified when working.
Everyone knows the importance of Uchiha Mai to Konoha. No matter which front he joins, he will break the balance of that front.
"What?" The two Hokage advisors were a little surprised.
Why would Uchiha Mai come back at this time? He is already the true master of Kirigakure, and Konoha is not in danger of destruction.
It is more in his interest to stay in Kirigakure and watch the fight between the tigers. When Konoha and several major ninja villages have exhausted their assets and have to end the war, he can then take whatever he wants from Konoha.
Is he really concerned about Konoha?
No, he must have other plans!
"Haha..."
Tsunade laughed loudly, and the depression in her heart was swept away. I knew that this kid would definitely come back.
Tsunade glanced at the two Hokage advisors, raised her eyebrows with a smug expression, and asked Kakashi: "Where is the kid now? "
"I have returned to the village and am walking towards the Hokage's office. There are many people greeting and talking to the minister on the way.
When I heard the news, I ran to tell you."
Kakashi answered truthfully.
As the dance king of Konoha, the god of singing, the strongest ninja, the person in charge of appearance, and a kind personality, Uchiha Mai is very popular among the people of Konoha and is a well-deserved idol.
Now that he has returned to Konoha, the scene is not far from throwing fruits to fill the car.
As soon as Kakashi finished speaking, a familiar voice came from outside the door.
"Sister Tsunade, I haven't seen you for a long time. Do you miss me?
It feels like a long time since we met. I miss you so much."
It was Uchiha Mai. Tsunade looked up happily and saw a beautiful boy in a black robe with blood-red hair coming in.
In Uchiha Mai's hand, there were colorful bouquets, which were urgently bought and given to him by the people of Konoha after they learned that Uchiha Mai had returned.
Even after Uchiha Mai left, there were still an endless stream of people buying bouquets and sending them to the door of the Uchiha family, asking the Uchiha clan members to pass them on to Uchiha Mai.
The Yamanaka family's flower shop made a lot of money today, with a daily turnover equal to the previous month's.
"Smelly boy..."
Tsunade was about to say something with a smile, but she saw another beautiful young girl walking in behind Uchiha Mai, and her smile stopped abruptly.
Her long orange hair reached her waist, and some of the hair was a bit of a killer, which matched her already beautiful face and curvy figure, making the sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl have a bit of charm that can seduce everyone.
She is younger, coquettish, and prettier than me... No, not as pretty as me.
Tsunade looked at Mei Terumi, and then at Uchiha Mai, who was close to adulthood, and suddenly felt a little unhappy, even more unhappy than losing money.
Mei Terumi held dozens of kilograms of fruits given by the people of Konoha, and complained: "It's like a day without seeing you, not a day without seeing you.
By the way, do you really want me to hold these fruits for you? Can't I put them in the scroll? You really don't understand the respect lady at all..."
Mei Terumi raised her head, and her eyes just met Tsunade's, and her complaints stopped abruptly.
Better figure than me, prettier than me... No, not as pretty as me, nor as sexy as me.
But still a formidable enemy that cannot be underestimated.
Mei Terumi knew a long time ago that Uchiha Mai was a person who was obsessed with age, liked mature women with curvy figures and full of femininity, and had no feelings for lolita who only had faces but no figures and was still childish.
This is for sure.
Although Uchiha Mai was only seven or eight years old at the time, it was a bit weird for him to like mature women. But we have to consider that he is a time traveler and his thinking is that of a normal adult man.
It's even weirder to like lolita.
I remembered the oath I made at the beginning of the month, so I'd better update to 4k.
I have to do nucleic acid test again tomorrow, I'm tired
