What was Tsunade thinking in Chapter 284?
Originally, Tsunade wanted to include Honyataka as a candidate because she was a descendant of the Senju clan.
However, considering that the Ye family is a business family and would not be of any help to Ye Yu, and even conflict with Ye Yu's profession, they did not consider it.
In fact, Tsunade had high hopes for Honya Tadako. The grown-up Honya Tadako was even more beautiful than she was three years ago, and she was already showing signs of becoming the most beautiful woman in Konoha. However, her strength was indeed too weak.
For over three years, she's only at the Genin level, and because she's so bad at it, she's stopped being a ninja altogether.
He went home to inherit the family business.
Therefore, Honya Tadako is no longer a ninja; she's just an ordinary person.
However, she was still very popular in Konoha Village and was the goddess in the hearts of many Konoha ninjas.
Three years ago, the Ino-Shika-Cho family had already openly sided with Yoru.
In the eyes of the common people and ordinary ninjas of Konoha Village, Yoru seemed to have no strength that made him stronger than others, except for his medical ninjutsu.
Of course, Yoru is a Jonin himself, so no one would think that Yoru's strength is lacking.
However, in the eyes of ordinary ninjas, Yoru's strength is only at the level of a normal Jonin, and since Yoru has never fought in front of ordinary people, no one would think he is that strong.
Even excluding now, the older generation of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio had witnessed Yoru using ninjutsu three years ago, following the Third Hokage.
At that time, Yoru's strength was already at the Kage level.
It even surpasses the level of a movie star.
Despite Yoru's apparent status as a commoner ninja, few in Konoha knew of his true strength.
In reality, all the ninjas in Konoha who belonged to the Hokage lineage knew that Yoru would become the Sixth Hokage; it was just a matter of time.
Therefore, the Konoha forces standing behind Yoru include the Ino-Shika-Cho clan, the Sarutobi clan, the Hokage, two Hokage advisors, and even the Jonin of Kakashi's generation, who are all on Yoru's side.
It's safe to say that even if Tsunade were to announce her abdication now and hand over the reins to Yoru, no one in Konoha would object except Danzo; on the contrary, many would consider it perfectly reasonable.
This is Yoru's status in Konoha.
However, this position was kept hidden until Ye Yu made a statement.
Tsunade naturally hoped that Yoru would take over as soon as possible, but Yoru's attitude during this period made Tsunade realize that he intended to recommend Sasuke as the Sixth Hokage.
Tsunade had no choice but to agree.
Of course, Sasuke is certainly qualified to be the Sixth Hokage, and Tsunade agrees with that.
She had no ill will towards the Uchiha clan. Although she was a member of the Senju clan, she never actually showed any prejudice against the Uchiha clan.
On the contrary, she greatly admired Sasuke. In fact, even in the original story, before Sasuke defected, Tsunade had no prejudice against him and even cared for him quite a bit.
Now, because of Sakura's relationship with Sasuke, Sasuke is essentially her apprentice's boyfriend, so naturally she is undoubtedly on her side.
She naturally wouldn't object to anything, but if Yoru was willing, she would still prefer that Yoru become the Sixth Hokage.
Compared to Ino, Temari is practically uncompetitive.
Of course, everything depends on Ye Yu's ideas.
If Yoru's strength were merely that of an ordinary Kage, or even someone like Sasuke who was at the beginner Super Kage level, then he would definitely take Tsunade's opinion seriously.
But Ye Yu's current strength means he doesn't need to care about these things at all.
Of course, Yoru will still consider Tsunade's thoughts, but he has no plans to find a partner right now.
When his strength had just improved, all sorts of outstanding girls approached him, and he had indeed thought about this issue.
He was thinking about who he should choose, but right now he had no such thought at all.
They had even forgotten that such a thing existed.
Even though he had seen Shion in the Land of Demons, and Shion was very beautiful, and most importantly, had a great figure, when Yoru held her, he had absolutely no thoughts about her.
Not to mention that Yoru knew that Temari and Shikamaru were the most suitable, so naturally he never had any other thoughts about her.
After leaving the Land of Demons, Yoru spent a long time wandering around the ninja world, and even stayed with the Three-Tails for a while.
In Konoha Village, Tsunade sat in the Hokage's office, resting her chin on her hand and sighing, "Sigh, why hasn't that kid come back yet? What if something happens to him?"
Just as Tsunade finished speaking, Shizune, who was handling official business for Tsunade, looked up and smiled, "Lady Tsunade, who could possibly be his match? You're overthinking it."
Tsunade naturally knew that she was just a little unaccustomed to Yoru's long absence.
Although Ye Yu would occasionally leave the village to carry out missions, it would never last more than two days.
More than a month has passed since Ye Yu went to the Land of Demons, and he has not returned yet.
Tsunade really wasn't used to it.
"That guy didn't even send me a message. Doesn't he know we're worried about him?" Tsunade said with concern.
Jingyin smiled and said, "After all, he hasn't been out for a long time, and children his age are at the age where they crave freedom. He should come back when he gets tired of playing."
Tsunade nodded. She had been at Yoru's age once, so she naturally understood what people of that age were thinking.
"He's been out for so long, and Inoichi almost thought I did something to him. He's worrying too much. Who can do anything to Yoru now?" Tsunade said, somewhat speechless.
Shizune recalled how Yamanaka Inoichi had come to the Hokage's office to question Tsunade, and covered her mouth with a smile, saying, "The Yamanaka clan head was indeed too concerned, but he was also worried about Yoru's safety. After all, the Yamanaka clan head considered him his future son-in-law, so he would definitely worry if something happened to him."
Although Yoru hasn't married Ino yet, he hasn't even expressed his feelings to her.
However, Ino and Yoru are indeed very close, and Yoru has been taken to Ino's house to meet her parents several times.
However, Yoru did not refuse, so Yamanaka Inoichi assumed that Yoru had agreed.
Ino also considers herself Yoru's girlfriend, but she thinks Yoru is too shy to confess to her.
As Shizune spoke, she seemed to remember something and said, "Lady Tsunade, Temari from Sunagakure has been coming to Konoha quite often lately, and she's been inquiring about Yoru's whereabouts. Could they be up to something?"
Tsunade thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "That's impossible. If there were something between them, Yoru would definitely tell me. He has no reason to hide it."
"However, what we do know is that Temari, or rather Gaara, intends to matchmake Yoru and Temari."
“The situation in Sunagakure is not good right now, and Yoru is so strong. If Temari and Yoru were together, it would be of great benefit to Sunagakure.”
Shizune looked at Tsunade and tentatively asked, "So, what does Lady Tsunade think?"
