["Even though Rope Tree is dead, your threat remains significant."]
"It's not advisable to directly take action against the old man."
"That will inevitably be done through Danzo."
"Because Danzo's obsession was becoming Hokage, and besides the true-blue Senju and Nawaki, you were the only one left."
"The death of Rope Tree had a great impact on you."
"It should have been gradually devoured."
"But then you showed up again in a completely different way."
"Among the intelligence I've gathered."
"The model of having one medical ninja per team, which you pioneered back then, is still in use today."
"But when it was proposed, it encountered tremendous resistance."
Tsunade closed her eyes.
[She understood what Naruto meant when he told her to be bolder in her guesses.]
Yes, it's such a coincidence, everything is such a coincidence.
[It just happened to appear, it just happened to support it, it just happened to be like Rope Tree, it just happened to be...]
"Sever." Tsunade's tone was somewhat complicated.
[Mute: "???"]
Oh no, how did we get onto this topic?
[Silent heartbeat.]
His gaze involuntarily drifted towards Tsunade.
If Uncle Duan has a problem... then what about me?!
[The more she thought about it, the more terrified she became.]
What kind of nonsense is this?!
Then what am I?
[I'm at a loss for what to do now that I'm silent.]
[Her eyes were red-rimmed.]
"Lady Tsunade...I...I..."
[He didn't finish his sentence.]
[When I mute myself, large tears fall.]
Tsunade's expression darkened slightly.
Slowly close your eyes.
My head feels a little sore.
[A wave of intoxication washes over me.]
However, Tsunade still took a swig of sake.
Without turning his head, he waved his hand and said, "It's none of your business."
[Silent red lips trembled slightly.]
[And he didn't dare to make a sound.]
She looked at Naruto with a hint of helplessness.
Naruto nodded, signaling her to calm down.
[How can something that can be silenced be so easily calmed down?]
She is Kato Dan's niece.
That's why Tsunade took her away.
If Kato Dan has a problem, then that's equivalent to...
At this moment, silence felt as if it were being roasted over a fire.
Suddenly, Tsunade frowned. "Mute."
"Did you already foresee this outcome when you forbade him and you from using the surname Kato?"
[Silenced, forcing myself to calm down.]
[He nodded.]
There is indeed a problem.
Let's cut to the chase.
Naruto sighed softly.
I felt a little disgusting, but the thought quickly passed.
[Tell them the truth.]
[Let's take it down with a plan... one thing at a time.]
It seems Tsunade has recovered.
Let's continue then.
"In fact, both deaths share similarities."
Upon hearing this, Tsunade's delicate body trembled.
Then, as if recalling something.
The pupils continued to contract.
Her shoulders were trembling slightly.
She slowly lowered her head, a look of terror appearing on her face.
Clearly, the memory triggered her hemophobia.
This scene broke Tobirama Senju's heart.
He had no children.
Tsunade has been by Hashirama Senju's side since she was a child.
Naturally, Tobirama Senju poured all his love into Tsunade.
"Lady Tsunade!"
[Shizune immediately noticed that Tsunade's condition was not right and was about to step forward to interrupt Tsunade, who was lost in unpleasant memories.]
However, just as her little hand was about to touch Tsunade...
A large hand stopped her.
"Naruto-sama, Tsunade-sama, she..."
Before Shizune could finish speaking, Naruto shook his head.
Then she pulled Jingyin to sit beside her.
"This can't go on forever. Tsunade needs to overcome her hemophobia on her own."
"But..." Shizune hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"Don't worry," Naruto patted Shizune's hand.
Shizune took a breath, but the words caught in her throat when Naruto's bright eyes stopped her in her tracks.
["Hmm~"]
Under Naruto's gaze, Shizune lowered her eyes slightly and nodded softly in agreement.
Seeing that Shizune had regained her composure, Naruto turned to look at Tsunade.
[A swift and decisive action.]
"There are many suspicious points surrounding Rope Tree's death, but if you connect these suspicious points, the answer will naturally emerge."
"Before this, there was also the Senju clan, who had already merged into Konoha."
"The continuous fighting proves the incompetence of the higher-ups."
"The number of ninjas who were thrown into the war... was countless. Later on, even ninjas who had just graduated and become genin were sent to the battlefield."
"Without a doubt, many members of the Senju clan who were absorbed into Konoha... died here, far more than any other ninja clan."
"And the person with the ability to manipulate all of this... goes without saying."
Tsunade clutched her head, still trembling uncontrollably.
Naruto knew she had taken his advice to heart.
Or perhaps, she can only hear Naruto's voice now.
Tsunade slowly raised her head, her eyes bloodshot.
Naruto, however, continued.
"Moreover, such a situation couldn't possibly be kept secret from other senior executives."
"In other words, everyone has tacitly agreed."
"It cannot be ruled out that it was Shimura Danzo who did it, and then the old man tacitly approved it."
"After all, there are many benefits to the Senju clan dying."
["for example..."]
Naruto paused, then waved his hand, and a document appeared in his hand.
[Place it on the table and spread it out.]
[Shizune snapped out of her daze and looked down at her small hand, which was being tightly held by Naruto's large hand.]
[He gave a token twitch, then looked away, and subconsciously pushed it in a little further.]
That is...
[Upon seeing the title on the document, Shizune's eyes widened.]
[At Naruto's prompting glance, Tsunade looked over.]
[Research on the Thousand Hands and Wood Release techniques...]
"Found inside Root organization base."
[Naruto added a sentence.]
[State the source directly.]
Tsunade closed her eyes in pain.
[He clutched his arms, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.]
Clearly, hemophobia has returned.
Naruto extends his hand.
[Um? ]
It's a little tight.
Naruto turned around and looked back.
[Mute is still in shock.]
Naruto pulled his hand away, and Shizune, snapping out of her daze, quickly let go.
Naruto then placed his hands on Tsunade's shoulders.
[The moment she was touched, Tsunade's delicate body trembled slightly.]
"Listen."
"Shimura Danzo is the most likely person to have been responsible for Nawaki's death."
"The Second Hokage left behind a great legacy."
"They've also done a lot of research on Wood Release."
"It was originally sealed away, but Danzo likely picked it up again, and other high-ranking officials probably tacitly approved of it, which is why he's acting so blatantly."
"That's right, it's blatant, including the death of Nawaki!"
Tsunade's breathing became rapid.
But her eyes remained tightly closed.
"According to the information I've gathered... Rope Tree was killed because he charged too fast and was blown up by an explosive tag trap."
"But... Orochimaru was there at the time."
"Furthermore, Nawaki's teacher is Orochimaru."
"It's equivalent to doing it right under Orochimaru's nose!"
"Think about it carefully, doesn't Orochimaru seem like a completely different person after that?!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Tsunade suddenly opened her eyes.
A fierce hatred and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
But in an instant, her eyes filled with tears again.
"Napaki..." Tsunade murmured.
Vision became blurry.
In a daze, my presbyopia flared up again, and the tall boy in front of me seemed to have turned into Rope Tree.
[The next second.]
The aroma and scent of alcohol are irresistible.
Tsunade lunges at Naruto.
Naruto caught it easily and then locked it firmly.
"Nabaki's death...was horribly tragic."
"When they were found, all their internal organs had been removed."
"If someone is hit by an explosive tag trap... unless their head explodes, they shouldn't die instantly. It's more likely that while they were still conscious, their body was hollowed out."
