With Tsunade
Tsunade, an avid and very unlucky gambler, hits a winning streak, indicating to her that something bad is about to happen, and as such she tries to flee the city. Her assistant, Shizune, asks Tsunade if they can go and see the local landmarks first, to which Tsunade reluctantly agrees. As Shizune admires an ancient castle, with Tsunade repeatedly asking her to hurry up, the castle collapses, and from the rubble emerges Orochimaru and Kabuto riding a giant snake. Unhappy with seeing her old teammate she was about to attack him.
Just as she is about to attack, Orochimaru offers to revive her dead brother and lover. Finally considering that, Tsunade asks what Orochimaru wants in exchange for that. He told her she would would have to become one of his subordinates.
Orochimaru told Tsunade he would give her some time to consider his offer.
Elsewhere, Jiraiya and Naruto have arrived in the city, and the two visit Tsunade's last known location. When they hear reports of a giant snake destroying a castle, Jiraiya recognises this as one of Orochimaru's acts, and as such rushes to the castle.
"Naruto killed him and yet he is alive." Jiraiya thought
"Orochimaru is alive. Is he also immortal" Naruto wondered
Shizune, meanwhile tells Tsunade not to consider the offer. She also tells her they should fight. Although Tsunade refuses, Orochimaru sheds some of his own blood to make sure she keeps her word, knowing that Tsunade suffers from a fear of blood. With Tsunade forced into submission by the sight of his blood, Orochimaru allows her a week to consider his offer, and he and Kabuto disappear.
After a while
Naruto and Jiraiya find Tsunade at a bar.
Finally, we've found you Tsunade" Jiraiya smirk
Today I met with someone that brings back bad memories." Tsunade said
"Pervy Sage what did you do." Naruto
She isn't talking about me brat!!!" Jiraiya
"Your perverted tendencies is enough give someone bad memories." Naruto laughed
Jiraiya got mad but calmed down.
Well you don't mean me right?" Jiraiya asks Tsunade
"Not you I am talking about Orochimaru." Tsunade
Did anything happen?" Jiraiya ask
At this Shizune stared at Tsunade. Tsunade glared at her.
Nothing much... Just a little greeting" Tsunade replied. Jiraiya could see she was lying.
Jiraiya... Why'd you come to see me?" Tsunade ask
"To tell the truth the village of the leaf... has issued a request for you to be the 5th Hokage" Jiraiya answer, at this Tsunade and Shizune eyes widen
Jiraiya continued "Sensei has retired. You have been nominated as his successor.
"Hokage" Tsunade
So what is your answer? Are you willing to accept the position?" Jiraiya ask Tsunade
"Impossible. I decline. Who in the right mind would except that job." Tsunade answer
"Well you heard her let's go home." Naruto
"Come on Tsunade please reconsider. If you don't become Hokage. Then Danzo is mostly likely to become Hokage." Jiraiya
Then why don't you accept the position." Tsunade
"As much as I would love to do that my spy network isn't gonna run itself. Other than us there are no suitable candidates to become Hokage." Jiraiya
"My answer is still no." Tsunade
