On the other side of the battlefield, Tsunade sat on the canopy of a tree with her hands underneath her breasts, and while watching the battle between Naruto and Sasuke, she asked Jiraiya, "Is it really true?"
"What?" asked Jiraiya somewhat distracted.
"You know… about what you told Sensei… you plan on taking Uchiha Sasuke as your disciple, is it really true?" asked Tsunade.
Jiraiya nodded, "Yes." And explained, "From what Gamamaru-sama has told me. Uchiha Sasuke will play a major role in determining the future of the Shinobi World."
Tsunade was surprised, and asked, "Does that make Uchiha Sasuke the 'child of the prophecy' you have been searching for all your life?"
Jiraiya shrugged, "I don't know. What I know is that Uchiha Sasuke is important for the future of the Shinobi World. Since that's the case, it is my duty to make sure that I guide him on the right path. A duty that I failed to fulfill with Nagato."
"I see. Still, it's surprising that Gamamaru-sama would put such importance on someone from the Uchiha Clan." Said Tsunade, and added, "Since you have made your decision, you have to carefully explain to Hyuga Kuroto as well. That kid is smart and not someone you can deal with easily."
Jiraiya raised his eyebrow, and asked, "What makes you say this?"
Tsunade said lightly, "I heard that just after the Assessment of the forest of death, he had a dispute with the elders of the main family of the Hyuga Clan… the result of the dispute surprised me… Hyuga Kuroto incapacitated all the elders and walked out unscathed… What's more surprising is that this entire dispute happened in the middle of a major clan meeting where the Patriarch, as well as other clansmen, were also present, and not anyone dared to do a thing to him."
Jiraiya was stunned, "Such a thing happened within the Hyuga Clan?"
Incapacitating all the elders of the main family and still walking out unscathed is a big thing, therefore, Jiraiya is quite surprised upon hearing this news.
Tsunade nodded, and added, "Not only this, but I also heard that the Patriarch of the Hyuga Clan has forbidden the others from trying to punish him via the 'Caged Bird' Cursed Seal, so the main family has no effective method of punishing him, so they are a little bit wary of him."
"That's really something…" muttered Jiraiya impressed, and questioned, "Do you know what caused this dispute?"
Tsunade said, "I am not certain, but I did hear that the cause of the dispute was related to Hyuga Neji's performance in the assessment. The elders of the main family were dissatisfied with his disciple's performance and wanted to punish the child, however, Kuroto didn't allow such a thing to happen… hence the dispute."
Jiraiya folded his hands over his chest, and said, "This means he puts a lot of value on his disciple, otherwise, he won't go to such lengths for his disciple."
Tsunade nodded with a chuckle, "I guess… that's why I told you that you would have to explain it properly to him…"
Jiraiya sighed, "I understand what you are saying Tsunade." And added, "The very reason I took the kids to Mount Myoboku was upon his request, it was to reward him. Since Sasuke was selected instead of either of them, I thought that I would find another opportunity to reward him… the problem is… I don't know how to reward him."
Tsunade said with a smile, "You don't have to feel so troubled. Sensei told me about some of his plans yesterday. If the plan succeeds, then Kakashi will become the Godaime Hokage… and once Kakashi becomes the next Hokage, there will be a need for an Advisor Council for Kakashi. And Hyuga Kuroto can be made one of the Advisors."
Hearing Tsunade's words, Jiraiya frowned, "Make him a member of the Advisor Council?"
"I had the same expression as you when Sensei told me this… Huh… wouldn't that be interesting… a member of the branch family of the Hyuga Clan being a member of the Advisor Council?" said Tsunade with a smile.
Aware of the fact that Hyuga Kuroto is a member of the branch family of the Hyuga Clan, and seems to have developed a dispute with the main family, Sarutobi Hiruzen still plans to make Kuroto a member of the Advisor Council to support the next Hokage… this seems rather odd.
Sandaime's intention of restricting the main family of the Hyuga Clan by using a Hyuga shinobi is clearly visible. Thinking of this, Jiraiya couldn't help but ask, "Has Sensei finalized this?"
Tsunade shook her head, "He seems to have such intentions… as for what exactly he will do, that will depend on the situation at that time. What I can tell you is that Sensei is slowly paving the way for Kakashi to inherit the position of the next Hokage, of course, this is not a short-term process, it will take some time. Besides, at this time, Kakashi doesn't seem to be ready to become the Hokage either."
Thinking so, Tsunade looked in the direction of Kakashi.
Unlike the Cannon, although the current Kakashi is too different, he is not lost on the path of life, he has the determination to move forward, not only has he successfully mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, but he is also actively training Eight Inner Gates Formation, so his strength is nothing to be worried about.
The only problem with Kakashi at the moment is that he is too preoccupied with something in his mind, unless Kakashi manages to free his mind from that, he won't be ready for Hokage.
Jiraiya muttered, "He too has a lot going on in his life."
"Everybody has." Said Tsunade as she shook her head and added, "But he will be free very soon."
Jiraiya nodded, "Yes… he is Minato's disciple. Kakashi won't disappoint." Then he suddenly thought of something, and asked Tsunade, "So… who do you think will win the duel? Minato's son… or my disciple?"
Tsunade turned her attention to the battlefield and replied, "Uzumaki Naruto."

Back to the Battlefield
With his hands in his pocket, Sasuke looked at Naruto standing opposite him and said coldly, "Naruto… I admit that I had underestimated you… however… I don't intend to give up my position of number one to anyone… and you are no exception!"
Naruto with his hands folded behind his neck said with a chuckle, "What are you talking about Sasuke? Haven't I already taken your position!"
Sasuke was irked by Naruto's words, and said, "For a brief time yes… However, I am going to take back my spot! Don't get me wrong… you are strong all right. With your strength, it wouldn't be difficult to be number one in some other generation… but your luck is not good… I am also in this generation… and I won't allow anyone to surpass me!"
"Humph…!" Naruto snorted coldly, then he bit his finger and said while weaving the hand signs, "Then I am going to show you that I have surpassed you!" and shouted, 'Summoning Jutsu!'
Poof!
With a burst of white smoke, the figure of Garaga appeared on the battlefield. Standing on the head of Garaga, Naruto said to Sasuke, "Didn't you say that you have a powerful Summon as well? Bring it out…! I don't believe that your summon is stronger than Garaga!"
Sasuke's lips arched in a smile as he leisurely took out his hands from his pockets and while weaving the hand signs, he replied to Naruto, "Today I am going to show you your place!" then shouted, 'Summoning Jutsu!'

"Today I am going to show you your place!" said Sasuke and shouted, 'Summoning Jutsu!'
Poof!
Suddenly there was another burst of white smoke, and as the smoke cleared, a huge red toad appeared before everyone, and Sasuke was standing on the head of the said giant toad.
Garaga was previously seen by the children, so when Naruto summoned it again, although the children were amazed at the size of Garaga, they didn't appear to be so excited, however, when Gamabunta was summoned by Sasuke, everyone was shocked and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "So… So big…! I have never seen a toad this big in my life!"
"Amazing! Sasuke-Kun really has a powerful Summon!"
"Humph… that's to be expected of Sasuke-Kun… after all, he is the best!"
"Come on… Naruto… Sasuke… fight… show us your strength!"
"Yes… fight…! fight…! fight!"
The children were immediately looking forward to the battle between Sasuke and Naruto. In their opinion, size equals strength, since Garaga and the toad summoned by Sasuke are so big, that means they must be incredibly strong, and they were excited to be able to watch the fight between such strong creatures.
…
On the other side.
As soon as Kakashi saw Sasuke's summon, he was taken aback, and muttered doubtfully, "That… That's Gamabunta-sama… he is Jiraiya-sama's Summon… how come Uchiha Sasuke signed a summoning contract with him?"
Asuma's initial smirk disappeared as he saw Gamabunta, and with a stupefied expression, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Now way… Even Uchiha Sasuke…!"
Kurenai looked at Shisui on the side and said, "No wonder you are not worried about Uchiha Sasuke… he went to Mount Myoboku and signed a summoning contract with Gamabunta-sama?"
Shisui explained with a helpless smile, "Actually I did not know this either… so even I am surprised."
"Really?" asked Kurenai suspiciously, and added, "Why do I feel that that's not the case at all?"
Shisui shrugged lightly and Kurenai didn't pursue the matter.
On the other side, as Anko saw the appearance of Garaga and Gamabunta, she immediately became excited, "This is going to be a good show." Then said with a saddened smile, "If only I had a few Dango with me!"
"Here you go!" suddenly a voice came from her side and the smell of Dango wafted through Anko's nose.
Anko looked to the side and noted Kuroto–who had unknowingly appeared beside her–passing a few Dango sticks to her.
"Thank you so much Kuroto!" Anko cheered and quickly took the Dango sticks from Kuroto's hand as she got busy relishing her favorite flavor. She was least bothered about when and how Kuroto appeared beside her without her noticing. It happens a lot with her and she is used to it by now.
Unlike Anko, the others weren't the same. They were surprised by Kuroto's sudden arrival and greeted him, "Kuroto… what are you doing here?"
"Just to see what is Gamabunta capable of." Said Kuroto as he looked in the direction of Garaga and Gamabunta.
Itachi quickly apologized from the side, "Kuroto-san… I am really sorry about what happened at Mount Myoboku… I hope…"
Kuroto waved his hand at Itachi and said, "Don't worry about it Itachi… this matter had nothing to do with you or the Uchiha Clan… They selected Sasuke, it's not like I can blame them for making their choice."
Mount Myoboku has the right to choose their spokesperson, and Kuroto has no right to feel offended by them just because they chose Sasuke over Neji. Similarly, Uchiha Clan isn't at fault either, so he has no plans of retaliating against either of them. Of course, since Mount Myoboku made its choice, it will have to be responsible for its choice… In the future, if Mount Myoboku were to get attacked, Kuroto is also going to make his own choice of that time… after all, he can save only one person at a time just like they can only take one spokesperson at a time. As for whom to save… that's not for Kuroto to decide… it will be fate… decided by the wheel of destiny.
As Kuroto was thinking of this, suddenly, another figure appeared on the battlefield in the distance.
Everyone here was surprised upon noticing that figure, "Huh.. is that… Hyuga Neji? What is he doing there?"
"We have to save him… at this rate, he will die!" said Shisui, extremely worried.
Kuroto shook his head, "No… he has made his choice… now it's up to him…"
"Are you out of your mind Kuroto…? He is your disciple…! How can you say something so cruel… what if he loses his life?" scolded Kurenai, she couldn't believe that Kuroto would say this, despite knowing the disparity in strength between Neji and the two Summons.
Kuroto sighed, "Don't judge me so early." Then added, "I am not going to explain… Just wait and watch…"
Everyone was surprised at how casual Kuroto is about all this. Knowing Kuroto, they soon realized there must be a reason behind Kuroto's confidence and eagerly looked at the battlefield. Even if eager, they were also prepared to take action and save Neji should they feel the need. Kuroto paid no mind to them and looked at the battlefield, for he knew full well that there wasn't a reason for them to be so worried.
…
On the Battlefield
Standing on the head of Garaga and Gamabunta, Naruto and Sasuke spotted Neji's figure and shouted at him, "Neji… you are finally here… you almost missed the duel!"
"That means the fight has yet to start!?" asked Neji looking at Sasuke and Naruto.
Naruto nodded, "We are about to start." Then added, "You should stand with Shikamaru, Lee, and the others… here you will get injured."
Neji shook his head, "No… I am going to stay right where I am… for I am not here to watch the duel between you and Sasuke… I am here to fight!"
"Fight?" Sasuke was taken aback, and said lightly, "Neji… I and Naruto aren't going to hold back… that's why we have called our Summons… you… you don't have a Summon… you can't fight!"
"Yes… you should stand behind, or else you will get injured!" warned Naruto.
"Is that so?" muttered Neji with a chuckle, and said, "Then let me tell both of you… You are mistaken to think that I don't have a Summon… I do have a summon… and a very powerful one at that!"
"What are you talking about?" asked Sasuke doubtfully.
Neji didn't answer Sasuke's question… he felt that it was better to show them than explain them, so he quickly bit his finger started to weave the hand signs, and shouted, 'Summoning Jutsu!'
