Chapter 3: The Bowing Hokage Advisors
Hokage Office.
Two ANBU stood at the entrance. When they saw Tsunade enter, they said nothing. However, when Hikari tried to follow, they blocked his path immediately.
"By order of the Elders, unauthorized personnel are not permitted inside!"
Hikari took a step back, signaling that he meant no harm.
[Elders... aren't they just those two old dogs, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu!?]
[Damn, I almost forgot about that old schemer, Shimura Danzō. I'll let them have their way for now, but if they dare cross me, I'll make sure to kill them all later.]
Upon hearing Kamizuki Hikari's inner thoughts about killing the Elders, Tsunade's first instinct wasn't to stop him but rather to consider how to minimize the impact of their deaths.
As soon as she entered the Hokage Office, she saw Nara Shikaku reviewing documents. Meanwhile, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu sat there sipping tea, looking extremely pleased with themselves.
'These two geezers probably aren't even Jōnin-level anymore.'
After evaluating their threat level, Tsunade scoffed internally.
These old fossils had the audacity to live off the achievements of her grandfather's student during the wars, monopolizing credit while sitting comfortably. They brought nothing but disgrace to the Senju name.
