On going to route_29

[godaime]

Pokémon? [ Her voice rings incredulously. Seriously? She's going to catch them all? ] I don't have time for that! I have a village to run, and a war to win. I can't believe I'm going to get shipped off to some foreign land to farm Caterpie at such a crucial time like this. Nobody has time for that. 

[ And then the bad news is dropped on her. If her expression could get any more irritated, it'd become a tumblr reaction image favorite. ]

What do you mean I have some of my villagers there? And that they've lost faith in me?! [ WELL, she only seems to get angrier from here. Good luck with that. ] I guess I have no choice but to go in, but this better be quick! [ What's does a white rabbit and a hokage have in common...? ]

[punches]

I'll do what I can to alleviate those concerns, but...

[ There's only so much she can do. ] Did you hear that Naruto has both of his parents here?

[ And that one of them is a Hokage? There's a small frown from Sakura at that--why you no tell her this, Tsunadesamamama? ]

[godaime]

I trust you will. I know you're one of my most faithful pupils. [ Well, you're one of her only two but the compliment does mean a lot.

She wasn't told about that, however. Her eyes pop open in surprise. ] So the deceased come back to life? That's not reassuring. [ More Edo Tensei to deal with? Why, oh why. ] However, I'm sure they're making the most of their time while they're there. [ She's happy for them, if a little weirded out. There's a small part of her eyes that brighten with some twisted hope of Dan, Nawaki, or even that perverted toad kisser showing up. ]

[babel_hacker]

If it helps, time doesn't pass while you're there.

[Or it doesn't help at all, depending on the person!]

[godaime]

I'm not quite sure if that does help. It's a relief my body won't bleed out while I'm in Johto, but it makes this seem like a useless obstacle that I have to endure for no reason. What's the point of even getting lodged into this world, anyways?

[medinin]

Maybe there's a village missing a kage wherever you're going?

[ She's not mentioning which kage since she isn't sure, but...isn't this woman the one who was on a team with Sensei's Sensei?

She's probably referring to Konoha, if so. ]

[godaime]

For my mun's sake, I hope not. [ She pauses. ] If was taken away from the village I loved, just to lead some other village I'd be pissed. [ Yeah, she's going to be a bit gruff there. She's gone full mom ever since she took up the role of the Hokage. You shouldn't separate a lioness from her cubs. ]

Nice headband, by the way. [ She's not sure who this stranger is, but she does seem to be loyal to the village. ]

[itsjustdust]

[He's peeking around a corner at you.]

Does this mean you're going to confuse everyone again Tsunade-hime?

[godaime]

I don't think I should be held liable for your reactions. [ This sounds like a personal problem, Obito. ] I can't exactly say I'll confuse you on purpose, especially since I don't know what you mean by again. [ Who is this kid anyways? Still, that leaf headband doesn't mean he's a bad guy, right? ]

[theonewhodied]

Unfortunately, I don't think mundanes care how important the things you have to do in your own world is.

... I suppose the only appropriate thing to say here is this:

Pokemon, getto daze! [Yes, Tsunade, you're being not-so-subtly mocked by a bratty teenager. In case you weren't mad enough already. Fortunately, there's nothing around to throw at him, right? You won't use that inhuman strength on a kid, right~?]

NAOI YEEEEES

[godaime]

[ ... Kids. She doesn't have much to say except she just shakes her head and giggles. She recognizes the taunt, but, she can't take it seriously. ]

Well, if you're so enthusiastic about obtaining pokémon, than maybe I should just make you catch them for me. [ B) ]

[ura_no_ura]

Ah, I'm sure you'll find a way to make things work, Tsunade-sama.

[godaime]

I wouldn't be Hokage if I couldn't, but I don't think anyone should be transported on an expensive vacation just because of someone else's whim.

[floralogy]

Seems to me more and more from our village are entering that world to raise ridiculous animal summons.

[YES, SHE'S NOT GOING TO RAISE PIG POKEMON OKAY.]

Good luck on that, Tsunade-sama.

[godaime]

I've heard about the news with you, Ino! I suppose you'll be joining Sakura and I? [ And Tenten. If she's like, interested or something. ]

[godofderps]

Oh, you'll do fine! Just keep being a holy terror until you get everyone home!

1/3 or something LMAO

[godaime]

Grandpa! I can assure you I have my temper under control! [ Says the Hokage who's shouting particularly loudly. ]

2/3

[godaime]

[ WAIT A MINUTE. Belated realization go! ] Grandpa? [ Aren't you supposed to be dead....? I mean, she knows people can be revived in Route but not here. Oh well, it's not a far conclusion. ]

3/3

[godaime]

Wait! You see your granddaughter all grown up and ruling the village and this is the first thing you say to her?! [ If Tsunade was the hulk, she'd be very large and in charge right now. And no, I'm not just referring to her chest. She'd be very green too |: ]

[beforethedarkness]

[They're late, they're late, for very important dates! No time to say goodbye HELLO they're late they're late they're late!]

[Also hmph because it's that weird old woman again. =/]

So you're supposed to take over for the Sandaime in the future?

[godaime]

[ Ah. It's Sasuke. But, he seems unaware of her reign.

That future part... ]

Yeah. Pretty much. I came at the right time. Konoha was reconstructed and right back to its former glory in no time, and I got the Sand to become allies with us again. [ And they helped to rescue you, but the less things he knows about the future, the better. ]

[becomingthesniper]

Hey, far be it from me to keep you from what you need to do, but it sounds to me like your mun is trying to trick you into heading there.

[godaime]

I'm aware it's a trap, but what choice do I have? [ She sighs. ] I can't just let my people be whisked away to some location without looking over them. I'm still responsible for them no matter where they are, and if time is frozen while they're trapped there, then I guess I'm going to have to go down there. [ It's your reign so you reap the benefits and get punched by the downfalls. ] It's not like my mun is giving me a say on the matter, anyways. [ That was said slightly more aggressively. She's going to get her revenge. Someday. ]

[jikogisei]

Godaime.

[Yep, not saying anything more. Itachi, you're so social. :|]

[godaime]

Uchiha.

[ She's not too concerned about you, since she knows about The Truth, from both the elders and Jiraiya. Let's just say, Jiraiya's version is a lot more sympathetic to you. However, she knows if she showed even an ounce of kindness to Itachi, he might not take to it. He took this secret to his grave (except he told Sasuke), and she's going to honor it. ]

[caster_blaster]

[Sounds pretty awesome, to him.]

Hey, it could be a hell of a lot worse. At least you get cool little monsters to pal around with.

[godaime]

I'm not so sure about that. There's nothing worse than being separated from the village you lead during war time. I'd rather go to some place violent if it meant I had a way out.

[avoideyecontact]

[Did someone say Pokémon?

Swimmer Melissa comes running up!]

I'm going to be first person to swim all the way around the world!

Go Starmie!

[Swimmer Melisa throws out her pokéball. Out pops a Starmie!]

YEEES OMG I JUST PLURKED ABOUT HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU

[godaime]

[ Tsunade doesn't know what the hell a pokémon battle is. At first, she just kinda stares at Starmie wondering what she's supposed to do with it.

So, um, she walks over to it. ]

I suppose this one is rather nifty looking. [ She crouches down to get at level with it. ] Hello, I'm Tsunade. It's nice to meet you two. [ ... And that dream is pretty lofty but... ] Around the world, eh? That's pretty impressive.

[goninjagoninjago]

Man, looks like the start of a whole new ninja battalion over there~. Can't imagine a Kage would have any problems getting those Pokemon to fall in line though.

[godaime]

It's not the pokémon I'm so concerned about. [ As far she's concerned, she'll be wrestling Beartics with her bare hands and winning. ] Let's just say the Will of Fire sometimes inspires rebellion. [ and now she's like, a mother of twelve teenagers. ]
