Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura shouted furiously, making one last desperate attempt to turn the tide.
Tsunade didn't even hesitate.
She jumped up, her right fist rocketing forward and slamming straight into both of their chests.
The two elders instinctively crossed their arms in front of them to block the blow.
But Tsunade suddenly shifted her fist into an open palm.
Gotta hold back a bit… If I kill them, who's going to pay back all that money? Show mercy. Just a little.
The moment her palms made contact—
BOOM! BOOM!
The Hokage Building trembled violently. Two explosive crashes echoed through the stone halls.
Outside, the guard who had earlier remarked on Tsunade's eerie smile made a move to rush in and investigate, but was stopped by the captain.
"Don't," the captain said, calm as ever. "With Lady Tsunade's strength, you think those two old fossils could land a sneak attack?"
"They're lucky if they're still alive."
"If you run in and interrupt her while she's pissed off…"
"I can't promise Konoha Hospital will cover your injuries under workman's comp."
The younger guard froze, thought about it, then nodded seriously.
The captain really is wise. Always thinking ahead.
Back inside the Hokage's office, Koharu and Homura had already been slammed into the wall.
They dropped to the ground, landing face-first. Blood trickled from the corners of their mouths.
Tsunade walked over slowly, her smirk openly mocking.
"I was going to deal with you later, but I didn't expect you two to be in such a rush to die."
"You think I begged to return and become Hokage?"
"Ino–Shika–Cho. Hyuga. Aburame. Inuzuka. Uchiha. They all asked me to take the seat."
"You think the opinions of your two clans matter?"
"I've got the Daimyo's full support. Your threats are laughable."
"From this moment forward, you are both relieved of your positions as Hokage advisors—and your repayment is going up by thirty percent."
She strode to the window and leaned out.
"Someone! Come drag these two dead dogs out of my office and dump them back at their homes!"
The captain of the guard heard her shout and bolted inside with three subordinates. They carried the bloodied advisors out on stretchers, both half-conscious and groaning.
On the way, the captain turned to the younger guard.
"See? If you'd gone in earlier, we'd be the ones carrying you to the hospital right now."
The guard shivered and broke out in cold sweat.
"Thank you, Captain. Please guide me well in the future."
The captain chuckled. "Hah. You've got potential, kid."
As for Mitokado Homura lying on the stretcher, well… surviving was already a blessing. Retirement might not be so bad.
At the same time, a new notice was quietly pinned to the bulletin board at the entrance of the Hokage Building.
Villagers began to gather, craning their necks and murmuring to each other.
At the edge of the crowd, an elderly couple watched anxiously.
The old man tried to squeeze forward, but his frail body couldn't push through the bustling crowd of younger villagers.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared near the front—Kakashi Hatake, standing at the side of the bulletin board.
With a calm, clear voice, he called out:
"Everyone, please stop crowding! I'll announce the news for all to hear!"
The crowd looked up and gasped.
"That's Hatake Kakashi! The Copy Ninja!"
"The genius who became a Jonin at age twelve!"
Cheers erupted.
Most people hadn't seen Kakashi in years—he'd disappeared into the ANBU long ago—but his name still echoed through Konoha like legend.
Now seeing him again, standing tall in his flak vest, their memories stirred with awe and admiration.
Kakashi stepped to the bulletin board and read aloud.
"The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, is retiring due to old age. He will step down in three days."
"The Fifth Hokage will be none other than the Slug Princess of the Legendary Sannin…"
"Lady Tsunade will ascend to the position of Hokage!"
Gasps spread through the villagers like wildfire.
Then came cheers. Shouts. Laughter. Tears.
"I knew it! I knew I saw her on the street the other day!"
"I told you it was Lady Tsunade! Hahaha! She's really the Fifth Hokage!"
"She's not just a powerful kunoichi—she's a healer! She saved countless shinobi during the last war!"
"Not just shinobi! She healed me! My leg was shattered in a mission—and thanks to her, I can walk again!"
Voices rose with joy and celebration. Even the shinobi perched on rooftops cracked smiles.
Some of them had taken part in the political pressure that pushed the Third Hokage to retire, backing their clan leaders blindly. But they hadn't known what came next—who would step up.
Now, they knew.
Tsunade's name had returned to the village, and with it, hope.
Female ninja especially stood prouder that day, inspired.
The five great villages had held power for over sixty years—nearly twenty Kage, all men.
But now, for the first time, a woman had taken the title of Hokage.
Tsunade.
Not only the first female Hokage of Konoha—she was the first in the entire ninja world.
To them, Tsunade was a legend. A woman who wielded power that could shatter mountains and still save lives with the gentlest touch.
Medical ninjutsu. Unmatched chakra control. Strength that rivaled the tailed beasts themselves.
A new era had begun.
Within three days, the news had spread like wildfire—not only throughout Konoha, but beyond.
Even spies embedded in the other hidden villages scrambled to report back.
Shockwaves hit the shinobi world.
In Sunagakure, Granny Chiyo's hand trembled so violently that the puppet she'd been constructing crumbled to pieces.
"Damn it!" she cursed, kicking the broken limbs across her workshop.
Tsunade… that woman actually became Hokage!
In every war the Sand had fought against Konoha, Chiyo had tried to gain the upper hand through poison.
But every time—every single time—Tsunade had countered it.
One a master of poisons. The other a goddess of medicine. It had made them natural enemies.
And to make matters worse?
Tsunade remained youthful, beautiful, even now. Still looking like a woman in her twenties, despite the decades gone by.
Chiyo grit her teeth. As a woman, the jealousy gnawed at her bones.
In Iwagakure, Ōnoki stared blankly, concern darkening his expression.
Tsunade becoming Hokage... he thought grimly. That damn Nawaki… if she ever finds out the truth about his death, things could get ugly between our villages.
And in Kirigakure…
Obito Uchiha appeared in the shadows behind Yagura, silent and watchful.
He leaned forward, whispered, and penned a new command into the scroll.
A new move had to be made.
The balance of power was shifting.
The Fifth Hokage had risen. And with her, the storm would follow.
