She arrived at the Hokage's office without any hindrance.
Pushing the door open directly.
Inside, sitting in the Hokage's seat, was the Third Hokage, along with several ninjas who had come to report on missions.
"I heard you were back, and I could hardly believe it." The Third Hokage looked at Tsunade with a chuckle. "It's good that you're back, you still look so young."
"...You're the one, Sensei." Tsunade opened her mouth, and finally said, "Have you completely become an old man now?"
"Hahaha."
The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, didn't mind his disciple's words at all, laughed heartily a few times, and waved his hand, signaling the other ninjas to leave.
"Is this return temporary, or did something happen?"
In fact, as early as a day ago, Hiruzen Sarutobi had received news that Tsunade was returning to Konoha.
After all, even though Tsunade had left.
There were still ninja spies around her, even from the major ninja villages.
So Hiruzen Sarutobi vaguely knew some information, but it wasn't very comprehensive.
"Look at these."
Tsunade took out a sealing scroll, placed it on the table, opened it, and after a soft sound, many small bottles, medicinal ingredients, and strange items appeared.
"These are..." Hiruzen Sarutobi examined these items.
"I bought these from a mysterious merchant." Tsunade's expression was solemn. "They are very miraculous, the effects of some potions are even beyond imagination, and that merchant claimed to be a merchant from another world."
"Another world?" Hiruzen Sarutobi was taken aback.
As the Hokage, he knew many secret techniques.
For example, the Reaper Death Seal that summons the Shinigami.
At the very least, the world after death existed.
But what Tsunade was talking about was clearly not this.
"He showed me many scenes."
Tsunade described what she had seen. "Scenes of completely different worlds. He said he was a merchant from something called the Omniscient and Omnipotent Merchant Guild, and the goods he sells -Mystery Box- indeed contain various miraculous items, some medicinal ingredients and potions that even I have never heard of."
"Describe your experience in more detail." Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression also became serious.
Although, the ninja world seemed to be in a rare period of peace right now.
However, the storm was never far away.
The Akatsuki, the other ninja villages, all sorts of threats, still existed.
Tsunade recounted her experience and conversation with Xin completely, with Shizune adding some details beside her.
Finally.
She took out the badge that Xin had given her.
