"What a rat in the gutter, meow!"
At this moment, Tachibana Jiro had obviously seen the giant spewing magma approaching him in the distance. Considering Obito's behavior, he guessed that Obito must have chickened out.
"Since it's a mouse, then Tachibana Jiro will definitely be able to catch it someday!"
Panting, Uchiha Izumi picked up Tachibana Jiro and looked at the numerous injuries on his body with some heartache. If it weren't for Tachibana Jiro blocking Obito, Uchiha Izumi believed that she would never have been a match for Obito.
"Of course, meow!"
"I'm really good at catching mice!"
Tachibana Jiro shifted its position in Izumi's arms; though injured, it refused to back down.
While Uchiha Izumi and Tachibana Jiro were chatting, Uchiha Ike Izumi also came to the side of the man and the cat.
"Was it Obito who attacked you?"
Uchiha Ikezumi looked at the two injured people, a rare glint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.
In Tang San's words, Obito Uchiha had already found a way to die!
Unfortunately, Konan and Nagato were not very helpful. Even though he had already told them about Obito Uchiha, instead of dealing with Obito, they turned around and attacked him!
"Yes, meow!"
"His space-time eye technique is just too overpowered, meow!"
"If it weren't for that weird space-time eye technique, Obito's strength would be just so-so, meow!"
Tachibana Jiro nodded repeatedly, enduring several minutes under Obito Uchiha's attacks. Although he was mostly on the receiving end of beatings, he had done a remarkable job surviving against Obito.
"Space-Time Eye Technique —"
Uchiha Ikezumi nodded. He knew Obito's Kamui well and knew that it wouldn't be too difficult to break it using a clumsy method.
However, if you want to be able to catch Obito anytime, anywhere, the Flying Thunder God Technique might be more suitable.
"Once I get back to Konoha, I'll ask to see the scroll of the Flying Thunder God Technique. If I learn it, catching Obito should be much easier!"
Uchiha Ikezumi spoke up, it seemed that he hadn't applied to learn any of Konoha's forbidden techniques in all these years.
Uchiha Ikezumi had already made a name for himself during the Third Shinobi World War, but at that time the Uchiha clan had enough ninjutsu for him to learn, and Uchiha Ikezumi used Lava Release more often, so he didn't have much need for other ninjutsu.
But given his past achievements, it wouldn't be difficult for him to apply for one or two forbidden techniques.
"After returning to Konoha this time, will Lady Tsunade become the Hokage?"
When Konoha was mentioned, a glint appeared in Uchiha Izumi's eyes. This was actually the first time Uchiha Izumi had left Konoha for the Land of Water. After being away for so long, she missed Konoha.
"Tsunade-sama must be elected Hokage!"
As Uchiha Izumi summoned a slug to heal Tachibana Jiro's injuries, the little slug finally spoke.
Indeed, this is true. Even in Konoha today, whether they are Jonin or civilians, they are more inclined to make Tsunade the next Hokage, since medical ninjas have truly saved countless lives.
In addition to Tsunade's status as the granddaughter of the first and second Hokage, her status as a disciple of the third Hokage, and her nominal status as the Princess of the Land of Fire, if Tsunade were to say that she wants to become Hokage, the situation would turn into a question: Who is Hiruzen Sarutobi anyway?
"Tsunade's popularity in the village is growing louder and louder —"
"I'm afraid that once Uchiha Izumi returns and the Jonin election begins, Tsunade will become Hokage—"
At the ninja academy, Jiraiya looked at the students and couldn't help but sigh.
He remembered that Tsunade had once said that she would never become Hokage, and that Nawaki's death would always be a thorn in Tsunade's side.
Jiraiya never expected that, because of her absolute justice, Tsunade would actually start running for the Hokage position.
"The position of Hokage is not important; what matters is the chosen one of destiny as prophesied!"
"No matter what Uchiha Izumi and Tsunade did, in the face of the chosen one in language, they are just like the difference between the moon and a firefly."
Standing on Jiraiya's shoulder, Shima spoke softly. As an elder toad of Mount Myōboku, she deeply believed in the Great Toad Sage's prophecy.
"But the Child of Prophecy is far too wary of Jiraiya!"
"Jiraiya, I'm telling you, why don't you change those bad habits of yours?"
"Now, when the Child of Prophecy sees you constantly referring to the 'Perverted Sage,' the unsuspecting villagers of Konoha might think that all the contractors trained by Mount Myōboku are like this!"
Fukasaku spoke earnestly, showing that he had high hopes for Jiraiya, the contractor of Mount Myōboku.
The only downside is that Jiraiya's reputation is really not good, which in turn damages the reputation of Mount Myōboku.
"I've already changed it—"
"Furthermore, all the bushes outside the women's bathhouse in Konoha have been cleared, and security has been increased."
"Even if I wanted to do something, there's simply no way I could!"
Speaking of this, Jiraiya was both resentful and angry.
He just couldn't understand what the women's bathhouse meant, and why it had to be fixed now that he, Jiraiya, was planning to stay in the village for a while.
Isn't this bullying honest people?
Thinking that he hadn't done any research in a very long time, Jiraiya's eyes revealed a look of utter despair.
He vowed that once he had brought the Child of Prophecy back on track, he would definitely leave Konoha. The ninja world was so vast, and he believed that those women's bathhouses and izakayas would still love him!
Meanwhile, at the Hokage's office building.
"You hired someone to attack Uchiha Ikezumi?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Koharu Utatane in front of him, his tone questioning yet certain.
How did you know?
Koharu Utatane instinctively asked a question, but looking at the solemn-looking Hiruzen Sarutobi in front of her, Koharu Utatane had a momentary illusion that the other party was still the same ninja hero he once was.
"Go back to prison!"
"Uchiha Izumi is coming back!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi closed his eyes. He was genuinely disappointed in Koharu Utatane. Although he thought Izumi Uchiha's actions were indeed extreme, Izumi Uchiha was still a Konoha ninja and a powerful force in the village.
He was already worried that Uchiha Ikezumi would stay in Kirigakure in the Land of Water. If Utatane Koharu found out about these arrangements, Hiruzen Sarutobi feared that Uchiha Ikezumi would really not want to come back.
"Hiruzen, you're becoming increasingly weak!"
"Your Hokage position is about to be taken over by Tsunade, even Homura has chosen to support Tsunade, and I, as your staunchest supporter, actually want my lord to go back to prison by himself?"
