Crossover Anime: Plundering the Heavens and Building a Dimensional Empire

Page 196

Yes, this method is one of the best approaches at present.

Since there is no other way, it is impossible for a single village to defeat us, so we must seek another way out.

"The Hidden Cloud Village is unstable, the Hidden Mist Village is completely closed off, and the Hidden Sand Village... well, Rasa is not a peaceful person." Despite Tsunade's seemingly indifferent attitude as Hokage, and her lack of involvement in administrative affairs, she still has a thorough understanding of the ninja world.

The Hidden Cloud Village is currently preoccupied with its own problems, the Hidden Mist Village remains closed off, and due to the Third Shinobi World War, the losses are considerable.

Currently, only Sunagakure is making a fuss, even though it has allied with Konoha and is considered a subordinate.

However, the Fourth Kazekage was restless and insisted on causing trouble.

I'm pretty sure this guy is hooking up with Onoki.

"That's a good analysis, that's the situation." Bai Mu affirmed Tsunade's analysis, and he certainly praised her.

It must be said that there is something there; it's not like there's nothing at all.

Of course, Eileen scoffed at this, coldly saying, "Who cares about all that? Whoever causes trouble, we'll beat them up. It's all about fists; nothing else matters."

"Forehead……"

Tsunade was speechless.

We can't be so violent. We want to unify the ninja world, but what are we talking about?

Long-term stability and peace, do you understand? But this can't be achieved solely through bloodshed and killing. After all, there are still more ordinary people than ninjas. Although there are a lot of troublemakers in Konoha, the villagers in other ninja villages are not so abstract. We need to find a balance. At least we need to make the common people in the ninja world more normal and no longer act like these troublemakers.

"The words may be rough, but the reasoning is sound; that's the situation." Regardless of Tsunade's expression, Bai Mu firmly supported what Eileen said.

Is there a problem with that?

I can say that this is not a big problem.

Tsunade, you need to control your emotions a little. Don't act so strangely. It's not very reasonable, you know?

"you sure?"

Upon hearing this, Tsunade couldn't help but roll her eyes and retort with a question.

You've made it sound so convincing, but are you really sure that's the case? I have serious doubts about it, I really doubt it's true.

"I'll say it again: troublemakers in Konoha are only a small minority. We need to use both kindness and severity to ensure everyone's development. If everyone has money and a secure life, how can they cause trouble?"

Tsunade believed that since Konoha had been tough on foreign powers and had plundered enough resources, especially the post-war settlement of the Third Shinobi World War, plus the resources obtained from the tough actions against Kusagakure and Iwagakure, Konoha had benefited greatly in all aspects and was reaping huge rewards. So shouldn't we contribute to the development of Konoha's people's livelihood?

I think we need to improve in this area; we can't just do nothing, right?

You can't just sit idly by; I'll say it again...

That's something that absolutely must be done; it can't be left undone.

"That's insightful. The way she says things is truly unique." Eileen smiled knowingly as she looked Tsunade up and down before speaking slowly.

Tsunade:"……"

What were they saying?

Isn't this just a perfectly reasonable statement?

What you're saying makes it sound like I'm doing something wrong. The thing is, I haven't done anything wrong, so you can't say I'm doing something wrong.

"Uh, cough cough, what are you saying? I don't have that many ulterior motives. Essentially, I'm just doing this for the good of Konoha, and besides, I'm the Fourth Hokage of Konoha..."

"Right? I'm just offering some suggestions, what's wrong with that? We can't lag behind in improving people's livelihoods, let's not always focus on military development. We're far ahead in that area, aren't we?"

Tsunade believes her explanation is perfectly reasonable and correct, and Irene shouldn't try to find fault with it, as it is unreasonable and incorrect.

I'm not interested, so forget it!

Eileen pouted and casually said, "Alright, stop talking nonsense, I don't want to hear it."

What's the point of telling me this? I'll say it again: go talk to Bai Mu. I don't care about these things, understand?

"Yes, yes, I know you don't like it." Tsunade understood and immediately agreed, "I definitely won't tell you, I'll have to ask Bai Mu about it."

Because the one who makes the decision is him, not someone else.

"Bai Mu, what do you think?" Tsunade asked directly, seeking Bai Mu's opinion.

In her view, this matter must be settled first, and the rest can be discussed later. People's livelihood cannot be ignored, as it is related to the stability of Konoha and its attractiveness to villagers from other ninja villages. Only when Konoha is in good condition will others be willing to join. Who doesn't want a better life and a stable environment, right?

The environment is very important, and stability is even more crucial. Without stability, how can there be a secure environment? This requires strict law enforcement and a good living environment. People need to have hope for the future; without hope, how can anything proceed?

Chapter 252 If that's the case, I can't rest easy!

Bai Mu: "..."

That's very inspiring, Tsunade! You're doing great!

As for Tsunade's approach, Bai Mu thought it was quite good. It's good to be able to achieve something, and it's not good to be unable to achieve anything. You're so motivated, I definitely like that.

"At least you're starting to look like a Hokage. Otherwise, I wouldn't know what you're good for. Do you even know what this means?"

"You're the Hokage, not some useless bum. You need to have some governing principles. It's good as it is now. You need to keep working hard to maintain this and continue to grow..."

Bai Mu praised it highly, expressing his satisfaction, which made Tsunade very uncomfortable.

She had to interrupt Bai Mu and quickly said, "Ahem, alright, alright, stop, stop. My position as Hokage is just that, it's not important to me. The key is how you see it. After all, Konoha is very arrogant both inside and outside the village right now. Because of the consecutive victories, they have gained huge benefits. All the major ninja clans are sharpening their knives, thinking about how to get a share of the pie from outsiders. They all want more."

I know you're praising me, but you're praising me so much I'm embarrassed. You can't just do it like that, right?

I'm not used to it at all, and I really don't know whether to be happy or worried.

"It's alright, this is a good thing. It means that not all of us in Konoha are sheep. Look at how Kumogakure acted before. In the ninja world, strength is paramount. If you're strong, you can do anything. But what's the situation with the two strongest ninja villages besides Konoha now? They're practically useless, just pure trash."

Bai Mu didn't care about this at all. It was a good thing that Konoha had ambitions to expand outwards. The worst thing would be if they were all sheep, which would be really bad. The current situation was actually a good thing.

Sometimes, you have to be ambitious. If you're not ambitious, how can you live up to this era of great competition?

"Alright, alright, now it's time to talk about what happened to Iwagakure this time. Let's leave aside Iwagakure, which is represented by Onoki, for now. What about the Akatsuki's intrusion and the Edo Tensei? What's going on?"

Tsunade is very concerned about this operation, especially since it involves the Akatsuki organization and the Edo Tensei technique. Does anyone in the Akatsuki organization know this technique?

Who?

Who is it?

She was very concerned, but also worried and afraid that things would spiral out of control and go beyond what was originally planned.

"What do you say?"

Bai Mu smiled and asked in return.

Tsunade: "Huh? Do I have to say it?"

Upon hearing Bai Mu say this, she was immediately taken aback. She really didn't expect that she would have to say it herself. But was this a consideration or just unreliable?

Okay, let me guess, could it be...?

"Leaving aside Nagato's trio in Akatsuki, the group that appeared this time is Kakuzu, Hiruko, and Sasori. They definitely don't know this technique. And the remaining member is... Black Zetsu!"

"It must be that old monster. My grandfather invented such a forbidden technique. There's no way that an old monster like him wouldn't be tempted. He probably already knows it."

After a thorough analysis, Tsunade immediately identified the suspect: Black Zetsu was the most suitable candidate, no one else would do. However, Madara Uchiha must know this; if he could undo the Impure World Reincarnation, then he definitely could…

However, if it didn't revive, then it can only be Black Zetsu.

Also, was Obito Uchiha also resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique?

"That's right, was Obito Uchiha resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique?"

She wasn't there, so it's difficult for her to judge the matter.

But Bai Mu should know whether or not.

Although the other party doesn't seem to have shown up.

But since there were obvious spatial fluctuations when Hiruko and the others were rescued, wasn't it Obito Uchiha who could have done that? That guy's eye technique—Kamui!

Furthermore, Esdeath's words are unlikely to be false, so we should believe her. In addition, considering the various clues we have, Tsunade believes that the possibility of Obito Uchiha has greatly increased.

Since Obito Uchiha was resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, Black Zetsu must have collected information on many powerful individuals, which likely includes…

Okay, this isn't good!

Because Tsunade had realized a possibility: if we're talking about the strongest among the strong, wouldn't her great-grandfather Hashirama Senju be one of them?

"Maybe."

This is Bai Mu's answer.

Because we really can't be completely sure, we can only say roughly!

"Sigh, this doesn't put my mind at ease!" Upon hearing this, Tsunade immediately stopped drinking and became very worried.

"You're still worried about that?"

When Eileen heard Tsunade's words, she didn't understand why and couldn't help but ask in return...

“Of course, I’m worried, because it means the enemy will stop at nothing, and Obito Uchiha is a troublesome character. His strength might be weakened after being resurrected with Edo Tensei, but the problem is his dual Kamui…”

This is what Tsunade was worried about. She was afraid of Obito Uchiha with the power of the double Kamui, which would be really troublesome and only a very few people could deal with him.

Upon hearing this, Eileen immediately showed a disdainful expression, and said with a cold laugh and contemptuous tone, "It's just a roadside thing, nothing at all."

Tsunade ignored him and instead looked at Bai Mu, saying softly, "I'm worried. My grandfather is one of his targets, so what should we do?"

"Your grandfather?"

Eileen was taken aback for a moment, but then she reacted and waved her hand, saying, "The weak don't need to worry."

Is it a threat?

No, not at all.

I can tell you with certainty that the threat is zero, absolutely none.

"Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore." Tsunade didn't want to get into a fight with Irene; it was better to make things clear with Bai Mu. Talking to you was tantamount to not being able to talk at all.

"Bai Mu, what's your take on this? You should know the situation better than I do."

Hearing Tsunade's words, Bai Mu seemed to be deep in thought. Given Black Zetsu's usual style, this kind of thing was definitely inevitable.

"Of course there is, so the simplest way is to resurrect them beforehand using the Impure World Reincarnation technique." 1.1
