Chapter 19 Hinata Jing 1 sets foot in the ancestral home for the first time

"hehe......"

Five hundred thousand taels.

Orochimaru didn't know where Tsunade got so much confidence to dare to ask for such a commission.

So he took the scroll, opened it and started reading.

"Hinata Shizuka, the disciple you brought with you? I remember that he suffered from blood degeneration."

Orochimaru has a good memory and when he saw the signature he thought of Shizuichi.

"What disciple? I have never accepted one. I just took him with me when I had time. But this kid is so talented that he is far beyond my expectations."

Speaking of Jingyi, Tsunade couldn't help but feel a little proud.

Although there is no clear master-disciple relationship, Jingyi is still someone brought up by Princess Tsunade.

He can barely be considered her disciple, and is someone she recognizes, so he is worth showing off.

"He needs a lot of animal carcasses. Is it for experiments?"

When Orochimaru saw the content of the mission, he thought he had found a confidant.

Tsunade shook her head and said, "No, this kid has been fascinated by puppets recently. He said he was a weak medical ninja and suffered from blood disease, so he needed to make some puppets to protect himself."

"The corpses of these animals are all materials for making puppets. Compared to the corpses of ninjas and those expensive parts, animal corpses are more suitable."

puppet?

This was a little beyond Orochimaru's expectations.

"What level do you need?" Orochimaru put the scroll away and held it in his arms.

Tsunade was right, Orochimaru was one of the more suitable candidates to carry out this task.

It's quick and easy, and you can make some money. Even if you give Tsunade a lot of commission, you can still make a lot. It's a very cost-effective deal.

It’s much easier than running out to perform high-level missions.

In the dense forests of the Land of Fire, there are many strange and powerful creatures.

Tsunade said: "The stronger the better, and the species should not be too single, don't bring a bunch of messy snakes here."

"it is good."

Orochimaru agreed and held up two fingers to Tsunade.

"Two hundred thousand?"

Tsunade said unhappily: "Orochimaru, don't go too far, is there anyone who bargains like you?"

"Then I'll go find Sarutobi-sensei and take the mission directly from the Hokage's office."

Half a million?

Impossible. At most I can give you 200,000 so you can satisfy your desire. If you are not willing, I will go directly to the Hokage's office and bypass you.

"you........"

Tsunade was so angry that she wanted to hit someone.

"Okay, two hundred thousand taels, pay me right away."

Two hundred thousand taels to buy a long-term cooperation mission is a huge profit for Orochimaru.

He didn't know how much money Shizuka had, but the salary he earned from Shizuka's hard work at the Konoha Hospital was enough to cover the cost of this mission, provided Orochimaru could take it easy.

If he exerts too much force, Jingyi's income will definitely not be enough.

Orochimaru understood the principle of slow and steady growth. It didn't matter if he owed money first, he could just pay it back slowly. As long as the person who owed the money was not Tsunade, everything would be fine.

Making money is secondary, Orochimaru also wants to get to know Shizuka.

Who knows, maybe they could become like-minded people.

As long as Jingyi still wants to cure his blood disease, he will inevitably embark on the path of conducting experiments and research, and then his chance will come.

It’s not easy to find a good experimental subject.

The blood disease of the Hyuga clan must be very interesting.

It was time to get off work, and the patients to be admitted had been arranged, so Shizue and Tsunade left the hospital together.

Compared to the depressing Hyuga clan's territory and the bustling Uchiha clan's territory, the Senju ancestral home is very deserted and depressed.

In order to prevent the civilians from gathering together, the ruthless Senju Tobirama directly dispersed all the civilians and scattered them to various areas of the village.

The area around the Senju ancestral home also became one of Konoha's most heavily guarded areas, directly cutting off the idea of ​​some people rising again.

If the scattered clansmen want to restore the glory of the Senju clan, they must be led by the ancestral lineage. But now, the two sides are completely isolated, and with the complete demise of the diehard faction, this has put an end to the popularization of the Senju clan.

“It’s quite quiet.”

Seeing Jingyi looking around curiously, Tsunade sighed:

"In order to prevent the Hokage from becoming the exclusive right of the family, Second Grandfather was forced to break up the family and popularize it, leaving only the ancestral house line, and abandoning the Senju family name."

"There is no one living around now, only a few people from the main vein are left."

"The Nidaime is a man of courage."

Although Jingyi also felt that Senju Tobirama was too cruel to his own people, he had to admit that Senju Tobirama was a man of courage.

In the entire Konoha, he is the only one who can do this.

"Second Grandfather also has his own difficulties. Grandma said that if we don't do this, the succession of Hokage will lose fairness. At that time, the village will be dominated by the Senju family, which goes against Grandpa's will."

"When the family became a civilian, there was a lot of opposition, but Second Grandfather still did it."

When Tsunade was a child, she didn't understand these things. She only knew that the second grandfather who looked old-fashioned and serious actually doted on her and loved her very much. He always let her act up, even if he was very impatient.

At that time, Tsunade also felt that her second grandfather was going a bit too far.

When I grew up, I realized that Senju Tobirama was right.

The Senju clan has reached its peak. If things don't change soon, the entire Konoha Village will become an exclusive village for the Senju clan.

All civilians and ninja families will become affiliated families of the Senju clan.

It may even lead to some terrible disasters.

The Senju clan, which was at its peak, naturally wanted the village to become a place where the family had the final say, and all the poor people and ninja families became subordinates of the Senju clan.

It’s okay for civilians, but will those ninja families agree?

We all worked together to build a ninja village and a home for equality, but you, the Senju clan, want us to be your servants?

Some small families may not be able to resist, but large families such as Hyuga, Uchiha, Sarutobi, Shimura, and Ino-Shika-cho are definitely unwilling to do so.

So Senju Tobirama faced a difficult choice.

Either break up the clan and wipe out the Senju clan at its peak using special methods, or allow the Senju clan to continue to grow and eventually force all other ninja clans to unite in resistance.

In the end, Senju Tobirama chose to civilianize his family.

Given the situation at the time, it would have been better if the Second Hokage was from another family, as he could have suppressed the arrogance of the Senju clan. But unfortunately, the First and Second Hokage were both from the Senju clan.

It was inevitable that the Senju clan's ambitions began to expand.

When Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju were around, they could suppress the clan members, but once they were gone, there would definitely be chaos.

It is even a question whether Sarutobi Hiruzen can become the Third Hokage.

"Grandma, I'm back."

As they walked into the door of the house, Tsunade called out first, and Shizue followed Tsunade into the yard.

The eyes of the Anbu ninjas who were responsible for protecting the Senju ancestral home widened.

Is this Hinata Shizuka?

Why did he come to Qianshou’s ancestral home?

"Go and report to the Hokage-sama."

Even if he can be considered half of their own, Jingyi ultimately belongs to the Hyuga clan. His arrival at the Senju ancestral home will definitely attract the attention of the Hokage's office.

"came back."

Uzumaki Mito, who was sitting in the yard, responded with a smile, then began to look at Shizuichi who was standing next to Tsunade.

"Mito-sama, I'm Hyuga Shizuichi, and it's a pleasure to meet you."

Jingyi still admires Uzumaki Mito very much.

This is a respectable old man.

"You're good-looking, no wonder Tsunade and Kushina are willing to be close to you." Uzumaki Mito joked with a smile.
