Chapter-28: Tricking Sasuke and Tsunade arrives!

It's been a week since Itachi visited Konoha and Kakashi is now fully back to himself.

He started training team-7 more seriously now as well as training himself while he was at it.

Tsunade will be arriving to Konoha today.

It was morning time and I just entered the office.

I saw that Sasuke was sitting inside.

"Did Itachi come?" He asked with a bit of anger in his eyes.

"He did." I said as I sat down on my chair.

"Why did you not tell me?!" He asked while shouting.

"Shut up and let me explain." I said.

"You see, his target was Naruto this time. He also wasn't interested in you as you are far too weak now. He asked me to tell you this. He seems to be not as interested in me too." I said.

"...What..." He said.

"I have a solution for that though. It depends on you, whether you want it or not." I said.

"...Explain further." He said with a stoic look.

"You see, the mark on your shoulder, the cursed seal of heaven, is a seal that will be a source for Orochimaru's revival. It is a fuinjutsu that makes the user's soul descend into the victim's body and take over. It also gives you a significant power boost while using it. What I speculate is that a group of people will come to entice you with more power and follow them to Orochimaru's hideout. You will follow them. You will be technically a spy. It will be an S-rank mission only for you. It will be to spy on Orochimaru and at the same time, increase your power overall. But you need to be extremely careful. One wrong move and Orochimaru will take over your body. What do you say?" I said.

It was the devil's offer.

He cannot resist even if he wants to.

"You don't need to do anything other than stay near him and go with the flow till the critical time comes around. I will personally come to pick you up. Besides, if you want revenge, this will be the best course of action." I said with a smile.

He was thinking for quite a bit.

He must be stuck.

He must be conflicting inside, doubting himself, overthinking everything.

He will accept.

I can guarantee that.

"I accept." He said with a determined look on his face.

"Great! Now listen the details of the mission. It will be a secret S-rank mission no will will know that you were actually asked to do this, not even your own team. You also need to grow a lot under his tutelage. This will be your chance to take away a Sannin's tutelage. A group will come to you to kidnap you, you will also deceive them and make them think that you think that I am nothing and you only care about strength and revenge. You will also be sought out by a team of genins that I will release to 'rescue' you. Just defeat them and go on your merry way to the mission." I said.

He was very distressed because of the information dump.

Being asked to mock your love for loved ones is hard after all.

As an Uchiha, the difficulty only increases.

"This is the only way. Anything else will end your life and I don't want even you to die. I've already lost too much and this decision pains me but it is necessary for the greater good. I am offering you this mission for your own growth." I said as I clenched my fist.

"...Okay. I will do it." He said.

"Good. When the shinobi comes to you, just leave with them after putting some resistance. Now go and start training again. I have other matters to attend now." I said.

Sasuke left the office and I sat on my chair.

It was time for daily report that I needed to review.

(After a few hours)

*knock* *knock*

"Come in." I said.

"Hokage-sama, 2 of the three Sannin, Tsunade-sama and Jiraiya-sama, as well as Tsunade-sama's aid are waiting to meet you." My assistant said.

"Let them in." I said.

All of them entered my office now.

It was Jiraiya, Tsunade, Shizune and the pig.

Jiraiya was really skeptical about this meeting.

He felt some trouble brewing in when I asked him to seek out Tsunade.

"Ah Tsunade-senpai you are here! I was just waiting for you. Come on in, take a seat." I said

"Cut to the chase. I don't have much time to deal with all this." Tsunade said.

"That really isn't assuring coming from a gambling addict and an alcoholic. Anyway, I will cut to the chase. I need you to become the next medic-" I said but she cut me off.

"I refuse." She said.

"What about money? How much for you to agree? I think you can use money-" I said.

"I still refuse." She said.

"Are you sure you don't want to know about your loved ones' death's true orchestrator? As a bonus, I will make both of them to be able to see you one last time." I said with a smile.

She was shocked now.

"What do you know about them? How will you do it? Answer me!" Jiraiya asked in a enraged tone, releasing his killing intent.

I activated my sharingan and released my own killing intent.

"If you think I am Sarutobi-sensei then you are too naive, Jiraiya. Your head will fly off before you can blink if you don't change that attitude with me." I said in a serious tone.

"Even after giving you the respect you deserve, you try to do such things. Want me to kill you?"

Jiraiya was getting ready for combat.

Tsunade still had a very doubtful look on the face, Shizune and the pig were extremely scared.

"This is one last chance for you Jiraiya. Don't take my mercy for ignorance. Now, Answer me Tsunade...Do you want to change your ways after learning the truth and redeeming yourself or will you prefer to die along with your beloved friend Jiraiya? I will make it quick, don't worry. Either way, Shizune will survive. I think she will be grateful to learn about her uncle's death and hopefully have a better head on her shoulders. I will achieve my goals either way. It's on you to decide now." I said.

"I...I...I accept...Can you truly make it so that I can see them one last time...?" She said.

After losing loved ones, one is extremely desperate.

If they find a hope, they will cling to it, hoping that their wish will come true.

She was now tied to Konoha and I will have a legitimate reason to kill her if she tries to run away.

"Of course I do. I would've not sent Jiraiya for you if I wanted to. You will receive all the information up front and you will even get to meet them one last time. However, don't try to do something funny after that, I think you know what will happen if you do." I said.

"Okay...I accept..." She said.

"Hey don't make it seem like I am the big bad bully or something. I just want you to become the next medic head for the village and train a few disciples. That's it. Nothing more. I doubt you enjoy running away from the debt collectors." I said.

"It was still a very bad thing to exploit." Jiraiya said while glaring at me.

"Will you shut up man? I don't have the energy to deal with you. You think everything is happy and good for the world even after experiencing cruelty of the ninja world. Orochimaru is better than you in this aspect. If he wasn't insane about immortality and not defected, I would've preferred to work with him." I said.

He didn't retort after that.

"As for you Tsunade, I can't have you going all sad and depressed while teaching. I don't want to make half-*ssed ninjas. I will now tell you who was responsible for all this." I said.

"Shimura Danzo. He was proven to experiment with 1st Hokage's cells, mastermind behind the elimination of the whole Senju clan, Mastermind behind death of Kato Dan and Mastermind behind death of Nawaki Senju. He was hiding quite a lot. Don't ask how I know all this. I can assure you that the investigation was extremely thorough and we haven't confused anything. As for the seeing them one last time." I said but she just raised her arm and gestured me to stop.

Shimura Danzo was the mastermind behind this, I knew because of his soul information.

"I don't want to meet them again at cost of two living sacrifices. It is something that I cannot do. It will only make them even more sad." She said.

"Well I do understand that. If you want that, then I guess you won't be able to touch them." I said.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"I can call their souls in this realm for about 10 minutes but they need to go back to pure lands as without a medium, they will corrode and cease to exist after 10 minutes. Chakra is substituted for sacrifice." I said.

She was visibly very happy.

"Can you truly do that?!" She asked.

"Of course I can." I said.

"Then let's do it!" She said.

"hmm... let's do it here." I said.

This is a special jutsu I've been working on.

It was so that I can absorb more soul information with Human path as Mito had many ancestors who were even better than her at sealing and I cannot find their bodies even if I try hard enough as they were about a century old and Uzushiogakure was totally destroyed so even expecting to find their graves is slim, let alone a fragment of their body for Edo tensei.

This jutsu was combination of Spirit Transformation, Edo Tensei and Fuinjutsu knowledge.

I couldn't do spirit transformation but I could use the knowledge to pull something off.

By sacrificing a lot of chakra, I can temporarily summon souls if I knew their name.

I tested it a lot on a group of bandits I found recently.

The soul goes to pure land after 10 minutes automatically so the corrosion part was a lie.

I don't want her bothering me every time to summon them.

It is still in it's testing stage so the next guinea pigs will be Kato Dan and Nawaki Senju.

I don't want to accidentally destroy an important soul.

I call it, Spirit calling.

I dislike too complicated names so I kept it sweet and simple.

After writing a big and complicated fuinjutsu in the air, I made some hand seals and reaper's hand appeared.

I gave him chakra and named the soul I want to meet.

He nodded and suddenly two souls were thrown out of the crevice.

They were souls of Kato Dan and Nawaki Senju.

I just sat on my chair in the room and asked Jiraiya to leave.

"They need some private time." I said.

"Why are you staying then?" He asked.

"They will cease to exist without me. They won't cease to exist without you. You can leave." I said.

"Tch. Okay." He said as he left.

I just waited for some time.

"By the way, Who is the kid sitting on the Hokage chair?" Nawaki asked.

"I am your summoner as well as the 5th Hokage." I said non chalantly.

"That is amazing. It is surprising to see a someone your age be a Hokage." Kato Dan said.

"Well I became a Hokage only a few months ago. I am still doing a lot. Anyway, Now that your time is up, it is time to go. Tsunade say bye to them. This is probably the last time you will see them, We will have a great partnership together. Welcome back to Konohagakure." I said.

""We truly love you Tsunade. Please continue on with life and tell us the stories when you come here."" Both of them said.

I closed my eyes, activated Rinnegan and grabbed them. When Reaper appeared, he asked for the soul's by extending his arm, I just handed him the souls.

The jutsu was done and didn't seem to affect the soul too much, though it costed a lot of my chakra.
