Bab 218: Chapter 218: The Thoughts of Konoha's Clans
"Jiraiya, it's good that you understand," Tsunade said.
Hearing this, the Third Hokage frowned and looked at Jiraiya, asking, "Is it true what Tsunade said? That he didn't even use a third of his power?"
Jiraiya smiled bitterly and said to the Third Hokage, "Old man, those bombs he used to attack me, he just learned them from me. He only used two or three of his own techniques."
"Just using what he learned from me, he was able to render me completely powerless."
"If you say he used a third of his power, I wouldn't believe it."
Hearing Jiraiya's words, Kakashi and the other Konoha shinobi were stunned.
They clearly didn't expect that the bombardment technique the Flying Thunder God user had used was something he had just learned from Jiraiya.
If that's the case, his talent is terrifying.
Seeing that Jiraiya had recognized the gap between him and the Flying Thunder God user, Tsunade worried that Jiraiya might be too disheartened.
So she comforted him: "Jiraiya, don't feel bad. If he had gone all out, none of us combined could have stood a chance."
"So, this isn't your fault."
With that, Tsunade grabbed Shizune and left.
She wasn't sure if Shishou was waiting for them at home, so she needed to go back and check.
Watching Tsunade and Shizune leave, Kurenai Yuhi sighed and walked away, looking somewhat lost.
The Flying Thunder God user was no longer there, and she had no reason to stay either.
The other Konoha shinobi, like Choza Akimichi, Inoichi Yamanaka, Shikaku Nara, and Kakashi, were left speechless by Tsunade's words.
All of Konoha combined couldn't defeat him? That might be a bit exaggerated.
This place was full of Konoha's elite shinobi.
The Third Hokage and Jiraiya looked at each other, a bit skeptical and unwilling to believe it.
However, since Tsunade said it, they had to believe it.
Given Tsunade's character, if she said that the Flying Thunder God user had the power to destroy the Five Great Shinobi Villages, it was probably true.
"Let's go, old man," Jiraiya sighed. "From now on, you'll need to find a way to win over this Flying Thunder God user."
"If Mei Terumi from the Mist Village wins him over, you'll be in trouble."
The Third Hokage, leading the way back to Konoha, looked unhappy. "He's already taken Tsunade, what more does he want?"
Though the Flying Thunder God user was incredibly powerful, the Third Hokage was very displeased with his womanizing behavior.
Hearing the Third Hokage's words, Jiraiya's face twitched.
The other Konoha shinobi saw Jiraiya's expression and exchanged glances, unsure of what to say.
Everyone in Konoha knew about Jiraiya's pursuit of Tsunade.
However, now that Tsunade was with the Flying Thunder God user, it seemed Jiraiya had no chance.
"Hiashi, what's wrong? You look a bit pale," Inoichi Yamanaka asked, concerned.
"Cough, cough, I caught a cold recently, it's nothing," Hiashi Hyuga quickly explained with a smile as the others looked at him.
He wasn't sick; he had been shocked by the immense chakra he saw in the Flying Thunder God user with his Byakugan.
From Hiashi's perspective, all of the chakra in the room combined wouldn't amount to half, no, a third of his.
With that level of chakra, no wonder Tsunade said what she did.
No wonder Hyuga Rimei said they couldn't even beat his shadow clones.
Thinking of Hyuga Rimei, Hiashi felt a painful realization.
His wife, who had just divorced him today, would likely soon become part of the Flying Thunder God user's harem.
But after witnessing his power, Hiashi couldn't fault the clan elders for their arrangements.
Sacrificing personal interests for the clan's benefit was common for every shinobi clan.
However, Hyuga Rimei was his wife...
Turning his gaze away from Hiashi, Choza Akimichi was silent for a long time before asking Shikaku Nara, "Shikaku, do you think what Tsunade said is true?"
"Ah, Tsunade always stands by her words. If she said it, it's probably true," Shikaku sighed, contemplating how the Ino-Shika-Cho trio should respond.
With such a powerful individual in the shinobi world, they needed to find a way to befriend him.
"Ino has been visiting Tsunade a lot lately. Tsunade seems to be planning to teach her medical ninjutsu," Inoichi Yamanaka said.
Hearing this, Shikaku's eyes lit up, and he said to Inoichi, "Inoichi, you have a good daughter!"
With Ino's connection to Tsunade, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio was essentially secure.
Then Shikaku added seriously, "From now on, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio will follow Lady Tsunade."
"Of course," Choza and Inoichi nodded with a smile.
Shikaku, the old fox!
Other clan members from Kurama, Moonlight, Sarutobi, Yuhi, and other Konoha clans heard the Ino-Shika-Cho trio's discussion and quietly cursed before starting to think about how to get closer to Tsunade.
With the Flying Thunder God user supporting her, no one would dare challenge her position as the future Hokage.
They needed to show their loyalty early.
At the same time, this was also an opportunity to befriend the Flying Thunder God user.
Konoha.
At Tsunade's house.
Having returned from outside the village, Shishou was soaking in the bathtub, looking content.
Today, he not only expended chakra to help Mikoto and Kushina improve their skills but also went to the Land of Demons to see Priestess Miroku. Then he spent half a day searching for different dimensions with Hyuga Rimei and Hinata, and in the evening, he fought Jiraiya.
After all that, even with his physique, he felt a bit tired and needed a thorough relaxation.
Splash!
The wooden bathroom door slid open, and Tsunade, wrapped in a bathrobe, walked in with a flushed face. Shishou turned his head and grinned.
Having been aroused by the day's events, he hadn't forgotten his purpose in seeking out Tsunade and Shizune tonight.
"You pervert!"
Feeling Shishou's gaze, Tsunade blushed and spat, stepping into the bathtub and being gently embraced.
Splash!
The bathroom door opened again, and Shizune, her face bright red and looking like a steaming kettle, walked in.
