Chapter 322: The Desperate Goal of the Frontline Commander

~6 min read 1,159 words

"Go and see what's going on outside? Why is there so much noise..."

Inside the tent, just as Hatake Sakumo and a group of elite jonin were worrying about which people to dispatch to search for Fujiwara Tetsuya and Uchiha Mikoto.

The Konoha camp suddenly became lively...Even from a distance, Hatake Sakumo and others could still hear the deafening, yin-yang shouting.

"Sakumo-sama, it's Tetsuya-sama who is here..."

The people who went to investigate left quickly and came back quickly.

The sudden good news made Hatake Sakumo breathe a sigh of relief.

At least, things didn't develop in the direction he guessed.

Encircled by the crowd, Fujiwara Tetsuya and Uchiha Mikoto entered Hatake Sakumo's tent one after another.

"Senior Sakumo, sorry to have kept you waiting..."

Looking at Hatake Sakumo in front of him, and the dozens of elite jonin on both sides, Fujiwara Tetsuya paused... and bowed slightly.

He and Hatake Sakumo have fought and taught each other countless times...

In the Kawanin Village incident before, he was also Hatake Sakumo's subordinate... and received Hatake Sakumo's instructions.

To a certain extent, his relationship with Hatake Sakumo is closer than that with Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade...

"Huh~ I'm glad you're here. Didn't anything unexpected happen along the way?"

...

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked Fujiwara Tetsuya to come here, of course, not just to let Fujiwara Tetsuya be a simple thug.

Before leaving, Sarutobi Hiruzen sent someone to send Fujiwara Tetsuya a new appointment, becoming the new commander under Hatake Sakumo.

However...as for which aspect he was responsible for, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not intervene too much, but taught the final decision to Hatake Sakumo.

As a mature Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew very well what the consequences would be if he randomly interfered with the command of the front line.

It was two hours later when Fujiwara Tetsuya came out of the tent meeting.

During this period, in addition to understanding the latest developments of the current Kawa no Kuni and the strength of the main force of Sand Village... defense line, Fujiwara Tetsuya also confirmed the new appointment.

He and several other elite jonin, as commanders of the main offensive force, were responsible for the main offensive force.

"Tetsuya... it's you"

Just as Fujiwara Tetsuya stretched his waist and planned to pull Uchiha Mikoto to find a place to stay... a familiar voice came.

When Fujiwara Tetsuya turned his head to look, Senju Seito and several people from the Senju clan appeared at the edge of Hatake Sakumo's tent at some point.

"Seito!"

"Long time no see, you... you've become stronger again."

Looking at the long time he hadn't seen, Fujiwara Tetsuya also had a gentle smile on his face.

As he spoke, he slapped Senju Seito on the shoulder. Although he didn't use as much force as he could... the heavy force also made Senju Seito gasp.

"... Tetsuya, I should say this to you..."

"When did you become so strong?"

Rubbing Sheng Teng's shoulders, Senju Seito complained helplessly... but the joy in his eyes did not diminish at all.

"Are you Fujiwara Tetsuya?"

"Humph~ I heard my sister mention you, saying that you are a hateful... arrogant guy!"

"Fujiwara Tetsuya, I want to challenge you, I will definitely surpass you and become the most powerful ninja of the new generation of Konoha."

Just when Fujiwara Tetsuya and Senju Seito were reminiscing about the past.

Senju Nawaki next to him couldn't hold back his restlessness, and jumped in front of Fujiwara Tetsuya in the headache eyes of Senju Seito.

"Nawaki...you, don't be rude to Master Tetsuya."

Looking at the nervous appearance of Senju Nawaki, the faces of several Senju clan ninjas behind him turned green.

Without saying a word, they quickly rushed to Senju Nawaki and pulled him back.

"Hey~ Tetsuya, Nawaki is Master Tsunade's younger brother..."

"This guy's brain circuit is like this. Although he is hot-blooded and impulsive...but he is not bad in nature. Don't take it to heart."

"I know...Speaking of which, I have met this kid once."

"Besides..."

As he said, Fujiwara Tetsuya slowly walked towards Senju Nawaki. The invisible sense of oppression also made Senju Nawaki slowly calm down.

"Besides, before I came to Kawagoe, Senior Tsunade once told me to take care of Nawaki as much as possible, so that he wouldn't get too excited and become glorious too early..."

"Glory? Humph~ You arrogant guy, you are the one who is glorious."

"Young Master Nawaki will definitely surpass you... and become the new Hokage!"

Looking at the claws stretched out by Fujiwara Tetsuya, Senju Nawaki quickly retreated... and hid behind a Senju clan ninja, making faces at Fujiwara Tetsuya in dissatisfaction.

"Become Hokage?"

"It's a good dream?"

"But, little Nawaki... becoming a Hokage is far from as simple as you think!"

"Once you really decide to embark on this path, then... your teacher, Senior Orochimaru,There is also Jiraiya-senpai... Tsunade-senpai, they will all be your potential competitors. "

"To become Hokage, becoming strong enough to defeat them is just the most basic thing."

"You also need to learn politics, economics, balance... The most important thing is that you have to get the recognition of the vast majority of people in Konoha... and even the officialdom of the Land of Fire. "

"Only when you reach that level, you will barely have the qualifications to become a Hokage…"

According to the records of the original plot, Senju Nawaki died on the battlefield between Konoha and Sand Village when he was about twelve years old.

Calculating the time, it will probably be next year…

Although he has a good relationship with Tsunade now, it is limited to Tsunade, not including Senju Nawaki.

If it is convenient, he doesn't mind saving Senju Nawaki's life, but…if it is too much trouble, then forget it.

After all…he has now experienced the baptism of a man and become a mature adult.

"Uh~Becoming a Hokage is so troublesome…"

After hearing Fujiwara Tetsuya's story, not only Senju Nawaki fell into a dazed state, but even Senju Seito and others…felt that wanting to become a Hokage was simply beyond imagination.

"That's natural, otherwise…why do you think the leaders of the major ninja villages…are honored as "shadows"? "

Looking at the changing expression of Senju Nawaki, a hint of amusement flashed in Fujiwara Tetsuya's eyes.

"However, compared to becoming Hokage..."

"In the future... what will make you more desperate is the first thing you just mentioned."

"The first thing? What thing?"

Facing the "opponents" standing on the road to Hokage, Senju Nawaki was obviously hit.

The already slow thinking reaction became even slower.

"That is to surpass me... become the strongest of the new generation of Konoha."

"Kid... my goal is not to become Hokage, but to become the strongest person in the ninja world... surpassing your grandfather, the first generation Senju Hashirama."

"If you can do it, then chase me with all your might! "

"I look forward to the day when you challenge me…"
