Chapter 10: Tsunade's Reason

When the smoke cleared from the neck down things looked that same… same clothes, same hot body, but from the neck up things were different… instead of an old witch there was now a young woman with blonde hair and brown eyes. Of course those features held annoyance and anger… with that last remark Luffy made she puttee him into the wall not only crashing though the wall… but the next wall as well. Kyubi in Luffy's head was laughing, one thing he figured out that Dr. Kureha was Tsunade a while back and that Luffy called her by Naruto's special nickname… even if Luffy was in pain at the moment.

"I know I told Naruto this many times and you're his reincarnation and has his memories but… Don't call me that!" she yelled.

Nami and Sanji sweatdroped…

She cleared her throat and sat back down.

Chopper looked at her… not only that she looked different but she sounded differently, as Dr. Kureha she sounded like a stereotypical old witch but now… she sounded like a young woman…

"I'm sorry I hid this from Chopper…" said quietly.

"Who are you really?" asked Chopper.

"I'm Tsunade, one of the greatest medic-nins of all time, kunoichi of the Sanin and the 5th Hokage of Village Hidden in the Leaves…" said Tsunade.

"That would explain how you knew Kirara…" said Chopper.

"I've been in hiding for the past 80 years… from Orochimaru… and other people…" said Tsunade.

Sanji began to cough a bit… it sounded suspiciously like "Debt collectors". Tsunade of course glared at him.

"The reason I chose Drum Island was because of it's rebound doctors… of course becoming a doctor here was just the first step…" said Tsunade, "The 2nd step was posing as Dr. Kureha…"

"So you chose to use a henge of an old woman… yet didn't change your body? I thought you were vain before…" said Sanji.

(Punch!)

Sanji was now in another room… thanks to the Tsunade punched him in there.

"Many of the things I did as Dr. Kureha I did for an act… like hurting people if they didn't except my treatment…" said Tsunade.

"What about them…" asked Dr. Chopper as Luffy was dragging a half concouis Sanji in though the holes.

"Oh… you'll learn why I did it…" said Tsunade.

Nami sweatdroped.

"Many of the things I regret doing as Dr. Kureha but there are things I don't regret…" sauid Tsunade.

She walked over to Chopper and hugged him… she began to cry…

"I'm sorry I never told you until now…" sauid Tsunade, "I understand if you never forgive me… I love you so much…"

Chopper didn't know what to say but he began to tear up… then began to sob.

"I'm so sorry…" said Tsunade.

Luffy was about to say something but Nami shut his mouth and shook her head.

The two cried for a few minutes…

"Dr Kur… I mean Tsunade… I forgive you…" said Chopper.

Tsunade looked at the reindeer.

"You do…" said Tsunade.

"Yes… I do…" said Chopper, "Even though you hid this from me I understand… if Orochimaru is worse than Wapol…"

"You don't need to say anything else…" said Tsunade.

Thing reminded silent for a while… until Chopper finally asked.

"So… how do you know them…" said Chopper.

"Well it happened 99 years ago…" said Tsunade who began to tell the tale of how she became Hokage and the events afterwards… Chopper was amazed by the stories…

"Their really reincarnated?" asked Chopper.

"Yes, Luffy was Naruto, Sanji was Kakashi… and Nami was…" said Tsunade.

"Sakura…" said Nami with a sweat drop.

Tsunade sweatdroped… mainly because Sakura was her last appetence before Chopper…

"You're not into healing the sick are you?" asked Tsunade.

"No way… unless money's involved…" said Nami.

Tsunade sweatdroped again…

"So Chopper you want to join my crew?" asked Luffy.

"Um… well…" said Chopper.

"Come on join up with us…" said Luffy.

"Um… um…" said Chopper who ran out of the room.

"Hey come back here!" yelled Luffy chasing after him.

"Chopper's still taking in a lot of things… but I'm sure that once that he settles down he'll probably join… I know for a fact that he's always wanted to join a pirate crew…" said Tsunade.

"So did you know about us?" asked Nami.

"Yeah… I didn't think you'd come injured so soon…" said Tsunade, "I just found out last month…"

(Flashback)

Chopper and Dr Kureha (since this was before she reveled herself as Tsunade she will be referred to as Dr. Kureha) were doing experiments and research… when there was a puff of smoke.

"Hey guess who's here!" yelled a voice though the smoke.

"Jiraiya!" said Chopper happily, he was good friends with Jiraiya, they had a history together, Jiraiya was good friends with Dr. Hiruluk (don't ask why… but it involves Tsunade and Wapol… it's a long story) and Chopper came to see him as the perverted uncle he never had.

"Jiraiya…" said Dr. Kureha bitterly.

"Hey I finished my latest book… Make Out Warriors!" said Jiraiya taking out said book… he planed to give it to Chopper… but Dr. Kureha grabbed it and used a Bunsen burner to light it one fire.

"Kureha! That was a gift for Chopper!" said Jiraiya.

"I don't want Chopper to read such filth…" said Dr. Kureha.

"Hey where's Akamaru?" asked Chopper.

"Oh I found his owner… well sort of…" said Jiraiya.

He nodded to Dr. Kureha and she nodded back.

"I have to talk privately with Jiraiya…" said Dr. Kureha.

Both of them left the room and to outside.

"So I see you ran into one of them…" said Dr. Kureha.

"Yeah… his name's Ace… he's Sasuke's reincarnation…" said Jiraiya.

"You didn't join him?" asked Kureha.

"He's only one man! I'll join when there's one more… which should be soon… I hope…" said Jiraiya.

"You shared the blame didn't you?" asked Dr. Kureha.

"I have no idea what you mean…" said Jiraiya.

"You know what I mean… he was punished alongside you…" said Dr. Kureha.

Jiraiya sighed… "Yeah…" said Jiraiya, "But he did say he thinks his younger brother might be part of this…"

"You think we can trust him?" asked Dr. Kureha.

"He's nothing like Sasuke… though I am worried that something might happen to him… he suffers from Narcolepsy…" said Jiraiya.

Dr. Kureha sighed.

"You know you should really remove your cover… then again if Orochimaru was smart enough he's figure it out… after all you didn't change your body because of your vanity…" said Jiraiya.

(Punch!)

Dr. Kureha had punched Jiraiya away… he disappeared in a star and then there was a very loud crash.

"Jiraiya…" muttered Dr. Kureha walking away.

(End of flashback)

"That does tie into what Dalton said…" said Sanji with a sweat drop.

Tsunade laughed, she smirked "Want to play poker?" she asked.

"Strip?" asked Sanji.

Both Nami and Tsunade glared at Sanji… Tsunade more than Nami…

"I was joking…" said Sanji.

And so they began to play… not to mention that they were actually playing with money.

Elsewhere in the castle Chopper had somehow managed to get Luffy into a cell and locked him up.

"Oh come on!" yelled Luffy.

"How does it feel?" asked Kyubi laughing really hard.

"Oh very funny…" thought Luffy.

That's when he noticed that Chopper wasn't paying attention and grabbed the key using his rubber powers. Chopper heard the door unlock and realized the key was gone.

"Oh no!" said Chopper.

Luffy laughed, "Come on! Join my crew!" yelled Luffy.

And so the chase began. However Chopper stopped and got out of Luffy's way… once again Luffy crashed into the wall.

"Oh no…" said Chopper, "He's back…"

Back in the room… Tsunade was winning… Nami sat on the bed in disbelief.

"Did… did your luck change?" she asked.

"I don't know… I haven't played since this incident about 25 years ago involving Gold Rogers… I still don't want to talk about that…" said Tsunade.

"You think it might be a bad omen?" asked Sanji.

"Oh what are the chances of that happening?" asked Tsunade.

That's when Chopper ran into the room.

"Tsunade! Wapol's back!" yelled Chopper.

Both Sanji and Nami stared at Tsunade… of course the first game she played in years with her winning was a sign that the former king of the island was returning.

Next Time: The Evil king returns to his castle... with Chopper and Tsunade fighting and Sanji and Luffy helping what will happen... Find out next time...
