So-called war is the brutal, destructive action taken by opposing parties when their fundamental contradictions and conflicts reach a breaking point!
Where there are people, there will be conflict, and since the emergence of humanity, it has never ceased!
War is a violent political tool used to force an enemy into submission!
After the Fourth Hokage paid the ultimate price to seal the Nine-Tailed Fox, the village of Konoha was thrown into crisis. A leaderless state was unsustainable, so the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, resumed his duties.
After two months, the village had recovered its former calm, but the villagers were still mired in grief over the loss of the Fourth Hokage.
Many villagers were slaughtered during the attack, and numerous Jonin were tragically killed.
Konoha was severely wounded!
The surrounding small villages suffered a continuous string of even more horrific tragedies. Thus, with the support of the Fire Daimyo, the Third Hokage took in many homeless and miserable villagers.
In the refugee camp set aside for those villagers in Konoha, a man looked up to the sky and let out a triumphant cry: "Finally, I've infiltrated Konoha!" There was no one around, so he wasn't afraid of being overheard.
"Lord Kamikaze, what should we do now?" The young boy beside him asked in a low, vigilant voice.
The man pondered, "For now, we'll stay put. We'll decide what's next once we've settled in." Lin Feng smiled wickedly in his heart. Now that he was in Konoha, his 'romantic conquest' plan could begin!
However, considering his original name might cause confusion or suspicion, he had specifically given himself the name "Kamikaze" (神风, divine wind).
Thinking of the three women inside the cabin, Lin Feng said: "I'm going out for a walk. You watch things here." It had been several months since they left the Land of Water, and Haku and her mother hadn't spoken much. Lin Feng knew he should give them some time.
Relying on his memory, Lin Feng vaguely knew the layout of Konoha's streets; although not perfectly accurate, it was enough!
However, he knew that an ANBU unit must be monitoring incoming refugees, even if Lin Feng's current strength couldn't detect them.
"This place is truly amazing!" Lin Feng was delighted. Konoha—he had thought about it countless times! His thoughts drifted to the many beautiful women, both great and small, within Konoha, and he couldn't wait to act!
Meanwhile, inside the Hokage's Office.
The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, looked at the woman before him with a kind, fatherly expression: "I already told you, I haven't seen that orphan! Six months ago, Minato and Kushina did bring back an orphan, but after the Nine-Tails attack... he disappeared along with Kushina. I don't know where they went!"
"H-how can this be!" The woman's face was crestfallen, yet she knew this wasn't her sensei's fault.
Sensei? That was right; the Third Hokage before her was her teacher!
Thus, the identity of this woman was now evident!
She was dressed in a dark green garment, similar to a kimono, with a large character for "Gamble" (賭) written on her back! This woman was none other than one of the Legendary Sannin who had been absent from Konoha: Tsunade Senju!
"Lady Tsunade, I think the Hokage is telling the truth. Perhaps we should continue searching?" Shizune quickly tried to calm Tsunade, who was about to lose her temper.
"Fine!"
Sarutobi was very curious about his disciple's sudden return: "Did you only come back to ask about that child?"
Tsunade trembled, her expression shifting dramatically. However, she offered no explanation, merely turning away: "Since you don't know anything either, I'll go look myself!"
"Are you leaving already?" The Third Hokage found Tsunade's behavior very strange. His female disciple, who had been missing for years, had returned to Konoha!
What made him even more curious was that she only asked about the child Minato had brought back!
What exactly was their relationship?
Tsunade, however, had no intention of telling her sensei: "It's nothing important! That's it, I'm going! Take care of yourself!" Although she didn't say much, Tsunade genuinely respected her teacher.
"Lady Tsunade, let's search the nearby villages!" Shizune walked beside Tsunade, feeling uneasy seeing her mentor so sad.
"Mhm! Let's go now!" Tsunade nodded slightly.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng was walking casually down Konoha's streets when he saw two women approaching him!
As they drew closer, Lin Feng's pupils dramatically constricted!
The King of Flowers, dazzling above all! What a gorgeous peony!
This was Lin Feng's first impression!
Of the two women walking toward him, one had blonde hair. Although her attire was somewhat unconventional, it did nothing to conceal her extraordinary aura!
The wisdom and arrogance of a superior figure, elegant yet sensual!
Especially those snowy peaks that absolutely dwarfed all competition!
Any man would find it impossible to look away from them!
With every movement the woman made, her twin peaks jiggled, looking as if they might burst out at any moment!
The woman wasn't very tall, perhaps only about 165 cm, but her towering bosom did not disrupt her exquisite curves; instead, it added a unique layer of mature female charm.
Dignified and enchanting, elegant and noble, possessing the beauty of color, fragrance, and allure—she was captivating!
Tsunade was also frozen! She stared blankly at the tall young man before her, her heart instantly overwhelmed by a huge wave! Who... is he? Why do I feel a sense of familiarity?
"Lady Tsunade?" Shizune didn't understand why Tsunade had suddenly stopped.
Lin Feng snapped out of his trance first. The woman before him had a monumental impact!
Not only was the stunning Tsunade there, but Shizune next to her was also a rare beauty!
She was slightly taller than Tsunade, but her 'assets' couldn't compare.
However, her quiet demeanor, gentle and meticulous, created a feeling of warmth.
"You... are you... Tsunade?" Lin Feng stared blankly at the two beauties. One was mature and dazzling, the other pure and charming—he was completely captivated!
Seeing the stunned look on the young man's face, Shizune thought Tsunade would suddenly erupt in anger!
After all, she wasn't in a good mood!
But to Shizune's astonishment, Tsunade was not angry. Instead, she stuttered: "I... I am." She, too, stared at Lin Feng in disbelief, at a loss for words.
The two stood there in silence for a moment.
"Lady Tsunade!" Finally, Shizune spoke up, reminding her.
Tsunade came to as if waking from a dream!
