The Nara clan member at the head took the initiative to speak.
With the mention of the name Tsunade, the other members of the patrol team also subconsciously relaxed their vigilance.
They might not have seen Tsunade, but they knew the name; after all, she was one of the dignified Konoha Sannin.
More importantly...
With the rumors spread by Uchiha Jin, they were also very clear about the persecution of the Senju clan by the village higher-ups.
"Defecting to the Uchiha!"
"Go report it."
Tsunade crossed her arms, her tone very flat.
Hearing these words, the patrol team members' minds went blank.
What the hell?
Tsunade defecting to the Uchiha?
No one could believe such a thing, and even subconsciously thought it was a joke because Tsunade's identity was not simple!
However.
Everyone still didn't dare to neglect it. One of them went directly into the clan grounds.
The remaining two patrol members also respectfully welcomed Tsunade into the clan grounds.
A moment later.
Tsunade was invited into Jin's large courtyard and was arranged directly into the reception room.
"You are Uchiha Jin?"
"Yes, please sit."
Looking at Tsunade in front of him, Uchiha Jin's eyes were normal.
After Tsunade sat opposite him, Uchiha Jin also made her a cup of tea, and then said in a very curious tone: "I really didn't expect that you, Tsunade, would choose to defect to the Uchiha."
This was the truth!
This was the Fifth Hokage in the original story, a guy who also had no good feelings for the Uchiha.
There was no helping it.
How could the thousand-year hatred between the Senju and Uchiha be erased by just building a village?
Everyone said Senju Tobirama had opinions about the Uchiha, but in fact, this statement was actually wrong. It should be said that the entire Senju clan looked down on the Uchiha, and only Senju Hashirama truly treated the Uchiha as friends.
Tsunade was naturally no exception!
It was just because everyone was in the same village, she didn't target the Uchiha as much as the Konoha F4.
It was precisely because of this that Uchiha Jin was curious!
He felt that Tsunade would at most remain neutral, with a small probability of choosing to become the Fifth Hokage, and almost zero probability of choosing to join the Uchiha.
So.
Upon learning that Tsunade actually wanted to join the Uchiha, his first thought was disbelief, and his second thought was that this woman had gone crazy.
On the other side.
Tsunade's expression was very calm. Even though her eyes were vaguely uncomfortable when looking at Uchiha Jin, she finally picked up the tea handed over by Uchiha Jin.
"Tch, it's not wine!"
"Then I apologize. I don't like wine; it makes me lose my judgment."
Uchiha Jin shook his head. Of course, he was telling the truth.
He didn't like drinking in his previous life, and in this life, the pressure was too great, and his nerves were tense every day. He was even more afraid that if he drank, he would be killed by Root right after.
Even now, it was still the same.
Although the Uchiha situation seemed good, in essence, they had just reached the same level as the Konoha higher-ups. Only if this action could completely succeed could they be considered to have completely suppressed the Konoha higher-ups.
Yes!
Just suppression; there was still a long way to go before success.
"Don't want to drink?"
"Then your life is really boring. You have to know that even the Nara clan occasionally drinks to relax."
"You calculate every day like this; what fun is there in life?"
"But, forget it."
"Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. As for why I chose to defect to the Uchiha, just assume my brain was kicked by a donkey."
Tsunade drank the tea in one gulp, and her brain cleared up a bit.
Then.
She was stunned herself!
She defected to the Uchiha? Why did she do that just now?
Sobering up a little, she was stunned on the spot.
Although she hated Sarutobi Hiruzen and other Konoha higher-ups to death, she shouldn't have chosen to defect to the Uchiha, right?
Drinking really messes things up!
But since the deed was done, apart from a sigh, she actually didn't know what to say.
What to do?
She couldn't tell Uchiha Jin that she just drank some wine, then thought of the darkness of the village, and came to the Uchiha in a fit of anger, right?
However, on the other side.
Although Tsunade didn't tell the truth, Uchiha Jin still sensed her awkwardness. Coupled with the smell of alcohol on Tsunade now, he guessed most of it directly.
After pondering for a moment, he spoke slowly.
"Tsunade-sama's words are really like a well-fed man not knowing the hunger of a starving man!"
"If I didn't calculate, the Uchiha would have been exterminated long ago, and I would be a rogue ninja at best now."
"Under such great survival pressure, how can I have the mind to think about fun?"
"Of course."
"I have a rough understanding of Tsunade-sama's situation."
"The Uchiha come and go freely and will not force anyone."
"If you feel regretful, you can leave freely."
Uchiha Jin was very calm.
After sensing Tsunade's emotions, he gave a promise directly.
Yes!
Perhaps Tsunade's identity as a medical ninja and the last Senju clan member was a huge boost to the Uchiha, but he actually didn't care too much.
To put it bluntly.
In Uchiha Jin's plan, there was no place for Tsunade, so he naturally didn't care about her leaving.
He had enough confidence in himself to achieve all goals through righteous means!
In response to this.
Tsunade was stunned upon hearing this, looking astonished.
Although she seemed to have given up on herself every day, she had a clear understanding of herself. Even if she didn't inherit the Senju surname, the name Tsunade was still irreplaceable in Konoha.
Otherwise, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya wouldn't have gone crazy trying to bring her back.
But looking at the calm-faced Uchiha Jin in front of her, she couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in her heart.
"Oh, so generous?"
"Aren't you afraid that I will really become the Fifth Hokage? This will definitely have a profound impact on your plan, right?"
"You have to know that as long as I nod, those chaotic civilian ninjas and villagers outside, and even the Daimyo, will acknowledge my status 100%."
"Even those ninja clans you won over, I am confident I can win over some of them."
"Are you not afraid of these?"
Tsunade was very confident in her heart; she really had this assurance.
Of course, the premise was.
She couldn't liquidate Sarutobi and those ninja clans; otherwise, she would definitely face the hostility of all ninja clans.
After all, those guys played a disgraceful role in the destruction of the Senju clan back then. Even if they hated Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others in their hearts, they were more afraid that she, the Fifth Hokage, would liquidate them.
So.
As long as she gave up liquidating the Konoha higher-ups, she could definitely ascend to the position of the Fifth Hokage.
