Crossover Anime: Plundering the Heavens and Building a Dimensional Empire

Are you not satisfied?

Okay, then let's eat something else.

Esdeath frowned slightly, clearly dissatisfied, but what could she say? She really didn't know for the moment.

After all, you can't be too polite to accept favors from others, and it seems inappropriate to say too much about it when I don't cook myself and always eat what they cook. I can't bring myself to do that...

Her silence does not mean Tsunade is silent.

For Tsunade, there are some things she needs to complain about. Although she has helped to please Irene and the two have reached a strategic cooperation, there are still some things she can talk about.

"I'd like to say, since you're interested in learning to cook, why don't you learn from Samui? She can cook all the local dishes of Konoha, can't you?"

When it comes to cooking, could you perhaps learn some cuisine from our world? You're not always just making food from your own world, are you? New things are fine to try once, but eating them all the time might not be suitable.

Besides, can bread and cakes be considered staple foods?

My answer is no!

So you have to learn.

"Learn my ass!"

Eileen didn't like this approach.

If you can't learn it yourself, then you can't learn it. What am I supposed to do?

Besides, don't try to fool me with that. If you really want something delicious, you should let Bai Mu cook it. His cooking is what I call gourmet food...

What kind of local cuisine is this?!

Upon hearing this, Tsunade still patiently advised, "Eileen, don't be so impulsive. I think you can learn from her. I can even teach you."

"Do you brew wine?"

Esdeath blurted it out.

However, she quickly changed her tune: "No, you can't, you can only drink."

"No, you..." Tsunade was very angry, but helpless, and really couldn't continue talking to Esdeath.

"Isn't the food on the table good enough?" Of course, Bai Mu didn't have such high standards. With a balanced mix of meat and vegetables, as well as desserts and bread, wasn't that good enough?

"Okay, but I just can't get used to the food," Tsunade sighed, her voice low and wistful.

"I know what she means, she just wants to have a couple of drinks." Esdeath finally understood; she was after a drink.

Upon hearing this, Alice Lise seemed to ponder for a moment, but then nodded and said, "That should be it."

Tsunade:"……"

Slander!

I'm suing you for defamation.

Seriously, don't say anything carelessly.

"Definitely not." Tsunade really wanted to have a couple of drinks, but because of Hakuba, she naturally couldn't. If she dared to do that, she would be asking for trouble.

Bai Mu treats everyone equally, telling them not to cause trouble and to behave themselves.

"These dishes look pretty good, at least they were made by Samui. I think Eileen's can be used as desserts after the meal."

After a pause, Bai Mu glanced at Tsunade's pleading face, pondered for a moment, and finally said, "How about some wine? Have a couple of drinks!"

"As long as it's drinkable, it's fine."

Tsunade beamed with joy.

She only needs to drink two glasses; everything else is unimportant. She only said a few words earlier to get some drinks; otherwise, she wouldn't have bothered.

Esdeath's lips twitched upon seeing this. She knew what Tsunade was after. It was just as she suspected. She was right. A drunkard is a drunkard!

"Alice, has the investigation been settled?" Bai Mu ignored Tsunade and turned to Alice Lise, asking softly.

"Pretty much, I've got it all sorted out, it's just a matter of when to announce it to the public." Alice Lise replied that everything was in order and it was just a matter of when to release it to the public.

Over the past few days, the situation has been sorted out quite well, and it's all logical and well-founded, making it convincing at a glance.

As long as an excuse is given, one can go and cause trouble for Iwagakure.

But, am I even capable of going?

It's probably not going to work.

"I... I can't go, can I?"

Alice Lise knew the chances of going were slim, but she still wanted to try. She had to secure her own benefits; she couldn't stay in Konoha forever, or she would truly become a mere government affairs processing machine.

"You and Tsunade stay here. I, Irene, Esdeath, and I will go." Bai Mu did indeed have arrangements; Tsunade and Alice Lise would both stay behind.

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Tsunade was taken aback, put down her wine cup, and blurted out, "Should I stay too?"

"You're the Hokage, you can't go." Bai Mu's answer was direct. Remember your status, you definitely can't go, and Konoha needs someone to stay and oversee things.

"The problem is that I was the one who wanted to go..." Tsunade muttered to herself. She really intended to go, but she knew it was impossible after noticing Bai Mu's gaze.

After all, the words had been spoken and the arrangements had been made. With Bai Mu's sharp gaze, I couldn't very well go against his wishes, could I?

Well, that doesn't look right no matter how you look at it.

Tsunade knew what was going on.

Naruto, Naruto, what a nuisance.

As far as I know, Naruto is a constraint for me.

"It's no use you going; I have to do it myself." Esdeath was most satisfied with this arrangement; having the opportunity to go out meant she could fight.

For a battle maniac like her, fighting against strong opponents is the most interesting thing. Although there may not be many strong opponents in Iwagakure, it's still fun to fight.

0 .0

The key is that there are many Iwagakure ninjas. Didn't they rely on 10,000 Iwagakure ninjas to wear down the Third Raikage before?

I'm very interested to see how many ninjas the Hidden Stone Village can muster to deal with me, Esdeath. I'm really looking forward to it.

By the way, it would be best if there were no fewer than 10,000, at least 20,000. Your Iwagakure village could send 10,000 Iwagakure ninja to the Third Raikage before, so I'd need at least 20,000...

Well, maybe that's not enough. After all, there's too much padding. Most of them are just cannon fodder. There probably aren't many Jonin. Getting fifty or sixty or a hundred would be pretty good.

Of course, even Jonin are no different from Genin in my eyes; they're all cannon fodder.

"You get all the limelight, but I'll take the blame?" Tsunade was annoyed. She couldn't stand Esdeath's arrogance. How could you be even more arrogant than she imagined?

"How could you be the scapegoat? No, don't misunderstand." Esdeath denied it, and besides, it wasn't your place to take the blame. What's there to say about a mere stamped Hokage? You're really overthinking it.

"Whether I'm taking the blame or not, you're the one stealing the spotlight, and I feel like I don't even exist," Tsunade continued to complain.

That's the truth, isn't it?

I have no presence right now. It's all Esdeath who's stealing the spotlight. You're the head of the Anbu, and you're more famous than me, the Hokage. Is that fair?

In my opinion, it's completely absurd.

The contrast between the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzo is completely reversed; it's just too outrageous, and I can't accept this role reversal!

Chapter 182 They've gotten too cocky; we need to strike hard!

"Why bother with a sense of presence? It's completely unimportant." Upon hearing this, Alice Lise immediately began to lecture, saying that a sense of presence was unimportant and that one shouldn't think about it so much.

"What do you say to Esdeath?"

Tsunade rolled her eyes, pointed at Esdeath, and indicated that it would be better to say this to Esdeath, rather than just to her.

Why are you telling me this?

He said to Esdeath.

If you tell her that, I will agree.

It's not enough to just talk to me and advise me; you should also advise Esdeath. It's not enough to just advise me; it's far from enough!

Alice Lise: "..."

What is there to say?

It was intentional, yes, it was intentional.

You're saying that on purpose, that's really not nice of you!

"Tsunade, I do keep Esdeath in check, don't think I'm indulging her." Alice Lise stated righteously, explaining the situation.

Is there any leniency?

No, I've been targeting Esdeath.

"Listen to this, is this even human language?" Esdeath went straight to Shiro Mu and complained about it, "Look at Alice Lizard, she's openly targeting me."

Bai Mu: "..."

As for your issues, I really don't want to get involved. There's really no need for it, and it would only cause me trouble.

"Okay, just say a few words."

"My decision will not change. Tsunade and Alice will stay behind, while I will take Esdeath and Irene with me to Iwagakure in the Land of Earth."

A decision was made.

Then it's impossible to change.

Also, there's something I need to do.

Bai Mu added, "Yes, the Grass Country needs to be destroyed."

"what?"

Tsunade was engrossed in her work, eating heartily, and planning to have a drink afterward, but she was stunned when she heard Bai Mu suddenly mention the plan to destroy the Land of Grass.

After a moment, she looked up and asked, "Why?"

Bai Mu explained, "The Uzumaki clan suffered the destruction of Uzumaki Village, and some of their descendants were scattered elsewhere. Among them, there are members of the Uzumaki clan in Kusagakure Village."
