Tsunade was busy in her office doing paperwork as usual when Nanami walked into her office unceremoniously without the obstruction of any Anbu ninjas. It was as if they didn't even realize her presence.
Tsunade only glanced at her before continuing her work and asked, “ What brings you to my office, Nanami? Did Izanami do something crazy again? "
Nanami usually doesn't go outside the mansion since technically she wasn't supposed to be at Konoha. As Izanami's secretary, supposed bodyguard, and the leader of the Yokai unit, she always tries to keep her presence as low as possible.
But with Izanami being the person she is, that job is very hard. If you are not careful, before you know it, you may be in the limelight because Izanami did one of her usual crazy stunts.
“Danzo is dead. Our agents just verified this information, “ Nanami said directly. She was the type that would speak directly without beating around the bush.
“Wait, really? “ Tsunade paused and stood up in excitement. She had a very big smile, as if she had finally gotten her hands on the 500-year-old wine bottle she had been wanting for a long time.
“Yes, your Anbu ninjas would also get this message very soon. “ Nanami nodded in confirmation.
“Hahahaha, finally that old bastard is dead, “ Tsunade laughed like a madman. She felt the huge pressure she had on her shoulders lessened considerably.
It has been more than a year since she took office as the Fifth Hokage, and every day she has always been in constant anxiety. Firstly, it was Danzo’s presence. You know the reason why the whole mess with the Daimyo started is because of Danzo. So if Danzo someday went crazy and went public, Konoha’s reputation would be lost.
This is something Tsunade wanted to avoid at all costs. The backlash from this would undoubtedly destroy both internally and externally. A huge civil war may happen because of this. And other villages would definitely not miss such an opportunity to cause trouble.
‘Thankfully that bastard is finally dead.' Tsunade laughed again. She then asked, “ Can I know who was the person who killed Danzo? I want to offer him my heartfelt gratitude. “
Nanami paused at this. Should she really say that the person who delivered the final blow was none other than Orochimaru, who joined Akatsuki recently? But considering Akatsuki’s goal, Tsunade may not be too happy. Especially if she knew how many of the members have a deep connection to Konoha.
Seeing Nanami’s hesitation, Tsunade immediately said, “Forget it; it seems like knowing this would definitely cause trouble for me. So is that all you want to say to me?"
“Ah no, the matriarch also said you must throw a big party for the whole village to celebrate Danzo’s death. She also said she would pay for the expenses, and you can disguise the party as a farewell party for her since she will be leaving Konoha in a few days, “ Nanami said as she looked at Tsunade with a strange gaze.
‘Did Tsunade somehow become a little smarter? Maybe being with the matriarch may have awakened her survival instincts to avoid trouble, ‘ Nanami thought inwardly.

“Hey, have you heard? “ one villager asked as he elbowed his best friend from the vegetable stall.
“Heard what? “ the friend asked, aback, as he continued to choose his vegetables.
“Did you know tomorrow there will be a big festival in the whole village? “ The gossip-loving friend said with a smile.
“Huh, wait, what? I thought the new year was supposed to be in five months. “ The friend who was picking up vegetables paused and asked in astonishment.
“You idiot, of course, the new year is supposed to be in five months. I’m talking about a new festival." The villager really wanted to slap his best friend for being so stupid. The vegetable stall owner who was eavesdropping on their conversation also wanted to do that.
“Okay, okay, jeez, don’t get too excited for a small mistake. So tell me, what is this new festival that will happen in the village tomorrow? “ The friend asked as he coughed a bit in embarrassment.
“Well, there would be a big festival in the whole village dedicated to Lady Izanami’s departure. “ Not wanting to embarrass his friend any further, the guy finally said.
“Wait, Lady Izanami is leaving? “ the guy asked in shock.
“Yeah, of course, she is leaving. Unlike us, she isn’t a native of Konoha. And besides, I heard that her mansion in the Land of Iron is more luxurious than the one here in Konoha, “ the villager said as he added the last part in a low voice.
“Damn, I completely forgot about that, “ the guy said as he slapped himself on the forehead.
Well, most of the villagers, like him, also forgot about this. After all, not all important guests who come to Konoha stay here for a whole year. Most of them would only stay at most 3 months.
“Wait, how did you know Lady Izanami is leaving? “ the friend suddenly asked. Usually, such matters would not be disclosed to the public.
“You really need to get your head checked, “ the guy said helplessly. “Didn’t you hear me saying there would be a festival in the village tomorrow? That festival is for Lady Izanami from the Hokage. And everything about it is already on the notice board in front of the Hokage building."
“Oh. “ The guy shrank his neck in embarrassment. It seems he should listen to his wife’s advice of seriously thinking before he opens his mouth.
Similar conversations were happening all around Konoha. After all, Izanmi was kind of a celebrity in Konoha. Not only is she beautiful and cute, but she is not as snobbish as those nobles. And most importantly, she was crazy rich and isn’t stingy when spending.
Due to her lavish spending, Konoha’s economy increased significantly. Her auction, ‘The Red Fox,' is very famous worldwide for its amazing goods. It is said that anything bought at Red Fox Auction House can be sold for a fortune in the outside world.
So when such a person with that much influence was said to be leaving, everyone was notified. Especially with Tsunade issuing an announcement about a festival that would be held for her.
While the whole village was busy discussing the upcoming festival, the ninja school was also very lively. Especially Naruto’s class. With most of the kids coming from ninja clans, they were already informed about the recent news as soon as it was released to the public.
“Hey, Dobe, is it true that big sis Izanami is leaving Konoha? “ Sasuke asked Naruto during their school lunch break.
“Yeah, “ Naruto said with a bit of sadness. She wished big Izanami would stay with him forever, but his parents explained how impossible it is. And due to his identity as a minor and Jinchuriki, he couldn’t go with her either. So he was a bit grumpy these days.
“Really? That’s sad, “ Choji, who was beside Naruto, said with sadness. Izanami would sometimes invite all of them to a barbecue restaurant where they could eat all they wanted.
“Yeah,“ Ino also joined in. She also liked Izanami very much. Izanami would take them on a shopping spree from time to time.
“… “ Shikamaru was silent, but he too had a sad expression. Unlike others, he didn’t feel troubled when talking with Izanami. He even felt like she was a comrade in arms.
Sakura, who was with them, didn’t know how to respond. She wasn’t that familiar with this Izanami person since she only recently became friends with these guys.
