Chapter 11 Standing outside the world, watching everyone quietly
"Your Wood Release is different from your great grandfather's."
Senju Tsunade gave Li Zhongren a simple physical examination.
"Grandpa is more inclined towards water, and his Wood Style is full of vitality, but you are more inclined towards earth, so you have this petrifying attribute."
"As for other aspects, your body is a little weak, but it's not a big deal. With the awakening of Wood Release, your physical fitness and chakra reserves will improve rapidly and steadily. In the future, you will be able to perform ninjutsu of this range with your eyes closed."
"But it doesn't matter. You probably won't have the chance to go to the battlefield."
Senju Tsunade touched Li Zhongren's head, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in her eyes, perhaps she was thinking of her younger brother.
"How's it going? Are you happy?"
"I don't mind the battlefield. The thrill of being on the edge of a knife and licking blood is quite interesting."
Li Zhongren shrugged.
"But I also like a stable life. If my family was rich, I probably wouldn't have chosen to become a ninja."
"From now on, you will live the most affluent life you can imagine. The price is that you will take on the responsibility of reproducing the Senju clan. Do you accept this deal?"
"Ah this. I'm only eleven years old."
"Haha, that's not a small age. In the Warring States Period, a thirteen-year-old was already a father."
Senju Tsunade stood up.
"Get some rest."
"Yes, Princess Tsunade."
"From now on, you have to call me sister."
"elder sister.."
Li Zhongren's big toe dug into the ground for the third time. Tsunade was only 23 years old now, but he had already reached 40 years old after two lives.
"Captain Minato is alright?"
"His muscles were torn and his internal organs were severely damaged. Fortunately, I arrived in time and he didn't suffer any sequelae. Now the medical ninjas are giving him a second check. I think you two will be able to meet soon. Tomorrow, after we take over this base, I will take you two back to Konoha."
"Yes! I did, sister."
"Ah"
"I've finished the inspection."
In the woods outside the base, Jiraiya stood on top of tall roots, keeping an eye on his surroundings.
"Ah."
Senju Tsunade sighed.
"Fortunately, the two children did not suffer any sequelae."
"I have to go back to the front tomorrow. I'll leave everything else to you."
"rest assured."
The expression on Tsunade Senju's face once again became cold, even ferocious.
"I won't make it easy for him."
"Well, for the old man's sake, don't be too..."
"Just take care of yourself."
Senju Tsunade glanced at Jiraiya angrily.
“Hehe…Hehe”
"Do you have any impression of this child, Sanye?"
"No, but I knew you would be curious."
Jiraiya rubbed his nose.
"This is the information I asked Orochimaru to compile. He sent it to me using the summoning technique. You can read it for yourself."
As he said this, Jiraiya threw a scroll to Tsunade Senju.
"Humph!"
After taking the scroll, Tsunade Senju opened it immediately.
Age: 11 years old
Parents: His mother was an ordinary farmer, and his father's father was a member of the lower class of the Senju clan. He followed the orders of the first generation and spread the blood of the Senju clan to the entire Konoha.
Skills: Substitution Technique, Taijutsu.
Experience: According to the survey of the neighbors around him, this is a precocious child. He could speak at the age of one, and was no different from a six or seven-year-old child at the age of two. He joined the Ninja Academy at the age of four and preferred physical skills and substitution skills. He spent almost all his time on these two ninjutsu during school. It is speculated that his precocious personality made him know that these two ninjutsu are most useful for survival.
Character 1: Kind. Compared to most ninjas, he has higher moral standards. He never bullies ordinary people by relying on his ninja abilities, and he doesn't put on airs in front of ordinary people.
Personality 2: Iron-blooded. The first time he participated in a mission to encircle and suppress bandits, he felt almost no discomfort after killing people.
Character 3: Aloof, not in the sense of being unsociable, but in the sense of keeping a distance from everyone, even Konoha and the Land of Fire, as if he is standing outside the world, quietly watching everyone.
Summary: He has no attachment to Konoha or the Land of Fire. If greater interests attract him in the future, it is not impossible for him to leave Konoha and the Land of Fire. My suggestion is, Tsunade, make your own decision.
"Ah"
This summary column was obviously written by Orochimaru. Given his personality, even Senju Tsunade didn't need to guess to know what he wanted to express.
In short, this child's background and personality have determined that he is a person without any ties. He can stay when he wants to and leave when he wants to. Therefore, the best way is to not give him the opportunity to grow up and simply make him a stud pig.
This is common sense in the ninja world.
Ninja is a profession that attributes great power to oneself, and the stronger the person, the more so. Therefore, every country has its own restrictions on ninjas, and Konoha's favorite thing to use is bond, or concern, with teammates, wives, children, or other emotional involvements.
When people have something to worry about, they will naturally settle down.
Facts have proved that this set of psychological tactics developed by her second grandfather is very useful. Even Uchiha Madara was unable to take any clan members with him when he left Konoha. This is the reason.
"He's a good kid, grateful. He could have hidden away, but he chose to come out to help because Minato taught him the art of substitution. But it's precisely because of this that he doesn't seem like the kind of person who would have ties or concerns..."
On the roots, Jiraiya felt a little emotional.
"So, your unwillingness to inherit the position of Hokage is a very self-aware thing to do."
"what??"
"Crack~~"
Tsunade Senju casually threw the scroll into the air, stretched out a finger and flicked it lightly, and the scroll turned into a pile of dust.
"Remember the kid's reaction when Minato Namikaze mentioned that Konoha was full of factions and that being assigned to our team meant an opportunity?"
"It seems... there are no unexpected reactions."
Jiraiya scratched the tip of his nose.
"No reaction is the biggest reaction. Like Minato Namikaze, he has a keen sense of smell and a thorough vision in politics. The conclusion is that he may be a person without worries, but he must be a smart person."
"My goal is to restore the Senju clan."
Tsunade dusted off her hands.
"The stronger he is, the greater the chance that his offspring will awaken the bloodline of the Thousand Hands. Theoretically, there is no conflict of interest between him and me. Even if there is a conflict within the village in the future, I can mediate. And someone with such a political sense will not overturn the table at the slightest disagreement."
"You who play politics all have a hundred minds. If possible, I really don't want these children to walk into that vortex."
"Then why didn't you take him with you when you accepted Minato Namikaze as your apprentice?"
"Please forgive me."
Jiraiya smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Why, do you still believe in the prophecy of that giant toad? Or do you want to go looking for the child of prophecy?"
"Please don't say that about the Toad Immortal."
"I don't know what kind of drug it gave you."
Senju Tsunade curled her lips.
"You know, I don't agree. I will teach him myself. If I really can't spare the time, I will let him teach me."
"Hmph~~"
When Kato Dan was mentioned, Jiraiya also curled his lips.
He once had a crush on Tsunade and even confessed his love to her, but was rejected. He was not the kind of person who would pester her, and he never pestered Tsunade again after that. Instead, he spent the whole night getting drunk in various bathing centers.
But he just couldn't look down on that guy Kato Dan.
He always felt that the pretty boy was very scheming, taking advantage of Tsunade's low mood to take advantage of her. If he had come out of the bath center earlier, maybe this opportunity would have been his.
You can see it here~~
Please give me some recommendation votes, dear readers~
Take care of the seedlings~~~
