The Sword of the Thunder God?
It rings a bell.
Natsume instinctively glanced at Tsunade.
His first thought was of the Thunder God who possessed the technique Blade of No Thought.
Well, this technique would suit Tsunade quite well.
"The Sword of the Thunder God is a ninja tool that my great-uncle, Tobirama Senju, used," Tsunade explained, thinking Natsume was confused. "It has two special features. First, it has an innate thunder attribute. Second, the more chakra you input, the stronger it becomes."
Natsume suddenly understood.
No wonder it seemed familiar.
There's a story about the Sword of the Thunder God.
Aoi Rokusho incited Ikeno Mori to steal it, and then he fled to the Rain Ninja Village and became a rogue ninja.
It wasn't until he encountered our main characters and was defeated by Team 7 that he became an easy prey for gaining experience.
The Sword of the Thunder God was struck by Sasuke Uchiha's Chidori and Naruto Uzumaki's Rasengan in succession and cracked right away.
Such a great sword, just broke with a snap!
Actually, it wasn't that the Sword of the Thunder God was no good; it was Aoi Rokusho who was lousy.
He didn't input enough chakra, so it wasn't hard enough to withstand the combined attacks of Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki.
"This sword is a relic of my teacher and has been kept by Konoha Village. It's okay to give it to you, but with your current merit, it's not enough," Hiruzen Sarutobi continued. "Natsume, you know, as the Hokage, the two most important words are fairness. I can't give you an excessive reward just because you're my grand - disciple."
Come on, can you explain what 'fairness' really means?
Natsume really admired his ability to say that with a straight face.
No wonder he'd been the Hokage for so many years and earned the title of the Strongest Hokage.
"Old man, give my share of the reward to him," Tsunade said. "Anyway, I don't need any rewards."
Her strength had reached a bottleneck, or rather, the peak of what a medical ninja could achieve.
Ninjutsu or ninja tools meant nothing to her.
"You really dote on your apprentice," Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a helpless look at her. "Since you insist, take the sword."
Actually, in theory, all the Senju clan's inheritances should have been received by Tsunade.
For example, this Sword of the Thunder God also theoretically belonged to her.
But because of her hemophobia, she left and didn't bother to care. All the inheritances were taken care of by Konoha.
After all these years, it's all tangled up.
Putting that aside, with Tsunade's merit, she deserved any reward.
Now that she's passing the reward to Natsume, Hiruzen Sarutobi thinks it's even better.
After all, if he rewarded her more, the only option left would be to make her the Hokage.
"Thank you, Grandpa Hokage," Natsume quickly thanked him and gave Tsunade a look, indicating that he'd thank her properly later.
"Shisui, go and fetch the Sword of the Thunder God," Hiruzen Sarutobi ordered.
"Yes," came the voice, but Shisui himself wasn't visible.
"Has Shisui joined the Anbu?" Tsunade asked upon seeing this.
"Yes," Hiruzen Sarutobi showed a satisfied smile. "Shisui has inherited the will of Kagami, He has both strength and fame and is now the squad leader of the Anbu."
"Shisui is really good."
Tsunade recalled his battle with the Fourth Raikage. It was hard to tell who would win in a short time, which was difficult for an ordinary Jonin to achieve.
A few minutes later, Shisui Uchiha flashed into the Hokage's office and handed a sword hilt to Natsume.
At the same time, he whispered, "I'll come to see you tomorrow."
Natsume looked at him in confusion, but he didn't offer an explanation and soon vanished.
He fixed his gaze on the Sword of the Thunder God and infused it with chakra. The blade appeared.
Seeing it with his own eyes, Natsume thought it was more like a lightsaber.
Great! From today on, he was a Jedi Knight.
[Due to your actions, the destiny of Aoi Rokusho has changed. You have gained 39 destiny values.]
[Due to your actions, the destiny of Ikeno Mori has changed. You have gained 28 destiny values.]
Not bad.
After all, they were just two supporting characters with few scenes.
"Tsunade, soon, Kumogakure will send envoys for peace talks. How about you representing Konoha to negotiate with them?"
"No way."
Tsunade rejected Hiruzen Sarutobi's proposal without hesitation.
"Let's go."
She rose to her feet, waved her hand, and led Natsume and the others away, leaving no trace behind.
Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed.
He had his eye on Tsunade to become the Fifth Hokage.
But apparently, she wasn't interested.
Except for her apprentices, she didn't even bother to care about other things.
With such a personality, how could she govern Konoha well?
"It seems that this old man has to hold on to power for a while longer."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said with emotion.
As for Jiraiya, it's better not to bring him up.
He was tricked by an old frog and was scouring the world for the so - called Child of the Prophecy.
Hiruzen Sarutobi had long noticed that although Jiraiya heeded his words, he always prioritized Mount Myoboku.
This made him dissatisfied.
Are you a Konoha ninja or a Mount Myoboku ninja?
On the way, Kabuto Yakushi detoured to the Konoha orphanage.
He was going to see Nonou Yakushi.
Tsunade, Shizune, and Natsume returned to Hashirama Senju's former residence.
"After going out, Shizune realized her strength was lacking, so she decided to redouble her efforts."
"Thank you, Sister."
When only the two of them remained, Natsume reverted to the affectionate address.
"You're welcome."
Tsunade rubbed his head, and her sweet voice sounded, "If you keep being a good boy, sister will give you more rewards."
This chapter isn't over yet!

What kind of rewards?
Are there any adult-style rewards?
Natsume hugged her right arm and leaned his head against her side. He said, "I'll work hard!"
Tsunade immediately showed a satisfied smile. Looking at his childish behavior, she reached out and pinched his cheek.
It felt great.
She couldn't help but pinch it again.
"Sister, I have a gift for you."
Natsume let go of her arm. Under her curious gaze, he took out a necklace.
In comparison, the First Hokage's necklace suddenly appeared rather plain.
Tsunade was also a woman. When she saw this beautiful necklace, her eyes lit up immediately.
"Sister is such a great beauty. How could she do without a necklace to set her off?"
Natsume said with a smile. "It's sort of like we've swapped necklaces."
If other men said this, Tsunade would surely think they had ill intentions.
But this nine-year-old boy was looking at her with sincere eyes.
She felt a bit unable to handle it.
After gazing at him for a moment, Tsunade happily stroked his head and broke into a smile as warm as a spring flower in bloom.
"Help me put it on."
She consciously turned around and squatted in front of him.
Natsume lifted her twin tails, looped the necklace around her delicate neck, and finally fastened it.
"How do I look wearing it?"
Tsunade examined the necklace and asked.
So big. Oh no, so fair. Cough.
Natsume nodded and said, "It looks really nice."
"You're just being sweet-mouthed."
Tsunade poked his forehead with her index finger, but the smile on her face betrayed her.
How do you know it's sweet? You have to taste it before you can say so.
Natsume criticized her lack of rigor in his heart, but said aloud, "I'm telling the truth."
"I believe you."
Tsunade yawned and said, "I used quite a bit of Chakra to release the Yin Seal earlier, so I've been feeling a bit worn-out these past two days."
"I'll give you a massage."
Natsume sat on the sofa, patted his thigh, and said, "Sister, lie down."
Tsunade hesitated for a few seconds.
Although she didn't want to be indulgent, she just couldn't refuse in this situation.
It's okay. It's just a massage.
After fighting for so long, can't she enjoy herself?
