Naruto The Thunder Calamity

Senju Tobirama nodded calmly and said to Raijin.

"Ha..."

Raijin gave a dry laugh. He didn't know how to respond to that.

"So, you really don't want to be Hokage?"

Senju Tobirama turned around and looked seriously into Raijin's eyes.

Handing over the position of Hokage to Raijin, letting the Uchiha clan have a Hokage too.

It's no big deal.

In this war, Raijin has shown enough wisdom, strength, courage, and has gained enough reputation.

All it takes is for me to step down as Hokage, and for Raijin to show a desire to be Hokage, then becoming Hokage would be a natural thing.

"I really don't want to."

Raijin looked up into Senju Tobirama's eyes.

I don't want to, I really don't want to.

If it weren't for Uchiha Madara and Otsutsuki Kaguya possibly causing trouble at any time...

After the war is over, Raijin doesn't even want to train anymore.

Raijin is already very satisfied with his current life.

He has money, a house, a background, a lover, and family. Raijin is very content now.

Although Suisei was taken away by Black Zetsu.

But Raijin knows that Suisei will definitely come back on her own.

After all, Black Zetsu taking Suisei away means that Suisei is now the one executing the Eye of the Moon plan.

All I need to do now is find a way to remove any possible curse marks on Suisei, and then deal with Black Zetsu, and I can truly retire.

As for any possible future Uchiha rebellion, Raijin is not worried at all.

For now, the Uchiha have no reason to rebel.

Even if that day comes, whether to help the Uchiha rebel or help the village suppress the Uchiha.

The initiative is in Raijin's hands, and there won't be any bloodshed.

So, being Hokage, forget it.

I'd rather spend that time figuring out how to make Tsunade less arrogant in the future.

Raijin has suffered from Tsunade for a long time...

But, if Raijin had seen Boruto in his previous life, he would have laughed at the idea of retirement...

...

"Alright."

Senju Tobirama nodded. Since Raijin doesn't want to, he won't force him to be Hokage.

Respecting Raijin's wishes is more important than making him Hokage.

Just like now, even though I'm Hokage and Raijin is just a special Jonin.

But when making certain decisions, I still need to consider Raijin's thoughts. So, whether Raijin becomes Hokage or not is not important. What's important is that Raijin's heart is still with the village.

However, we do need to find someone to be Hokage.

"Well... if Raijin really doesn't want to, I think I could be Hokage."

At this moment, Tsunade's voice quietly sounded.

As soon as she finished speaking, Senju Tobirama and Raijin almost simultaneously looked at Tsunade.

Raijin blinked in surprise. He didn't expect Tsunade to want to become Hokage on her own.

But thinking about it, it made sense. The current Tsunade wasn't the same as the one in the original timeline who had gone through many life-and-death separations and ended up numbing herself with alcohol and gambling.

Although Tsunade had also lost her parents, her grandparents, brother, and lover were still around.

So, wanting to become Hokage seemed natural, right? Senju Tobirama had more thoughts on this.

Could Tsunade be Hokage?

Actually, she could. Although in this war, Tsunade's reputation wasn't as high as Raijin's, her use of Slug Sage to reduce the death rate of Konohagakure ninjas in the Land of Thunder earned her quite a bit of recognition from the ninjas.

After all, Tsunade's relationship with Raijin was well known.

So, Tsunade becoming Hokage seemed like a good choice?

The only remaining issue was whether it was appropriate for the Senju family to hold the Hokage position for three consecutive terms...

But as long as the Uchiha didn't say anything, it didn't matter what others said.

As for whether Tsunade could win people's support...

Senju Tobirama wasn't worried about that. Although he had retired, he wasn't completely out of Konohagakure's affairs.

With him around, Tsunade didn't need to worry about politics.

And with Raijin around, Tsunade didn't need to worry about strength.

So, looking at it this way, Tsunade becoming Hokage seemed like a pretty good idea?

It would also keep Raijin busy.

The more Senju Tobirama thought about it, the more he felt it was a reliable idea.

Compared to Senju Tobirama's considerations, Tsunade's thoughts were much simpler.

Tsunade just wanted to surpass her grandfather.

Whether it was developing Wood Release, becoming Hokage, or practicing Sage Mode, it was all to surpass her grandfather—Senju Hashirama! This was... her father's wish.

And becoming Hokage would also make Konohagakure better.

This was... her mother's wish.

"Let's see how you perform."

Senju Tobirama raised an eyebrow and said to Tsunade.

Although he thought Tsunade becoming Hokage was a good idea, he couldn't let her think it was that easy.

"Tch! Do I need your approval to become Hokage?"

Tsunade's face fell, and she looked at Senju Tobirama with disdain.

"Well... if I agree, you might not become Hokage, but if I disagree, you definitely won't become Hokage."

Senju Tobirama snorted coldly, looking down at Tsunade.

"Then I'll let Grandma scold you!"

Tsunade, not willing to back down, said to Senju Tobirama.

"Heh... Think about it, in this matter, will your grandma listen to you or to me?"

Senju Tobirama sneered coldly at Tsunade.

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance. Tomorrow afternoon, give me a work plan for after you become Hokage. If it's good, I might consider letting you be Hokage."

Seeing Tsunade's face turn red with anger, Senju Tobirama smiled smugly, turned around, and waved his hand as he walked away.

Turning around, Tsunade looked at Senju Tobirama bathed in sunlight, biting her teeth hard. As Senju Tobirama's words fell, Tsunade shouted through gritted teeth.

"Got it!"

"Heh... Can't handle you?"

Senju Tobirama chuckled lightly and instantly disappeared in front of Tsunade.

Clenching her fists tightly, Tsunade stood for a long time before coming to Raijin's side.

"Assassinate him! Tonight! I can't take it anymore!"

Tsunade hugged Raijin's waist with both hands, repeatedly hitting Raijin's chest with her head.

"Ah, this..."

Raijin's mouth twitched slightly, looking at Tsunade in his arms with a helpless smile.

"Isn't this a bit too much?"

Is this the usual style before getting familiar? Oh my, a second war, and it took so long to write...
