I would be more then happy to correct any illogical scenario, grammatical mistakes or any other suggestion.
=============================================================================
It's been half day since we departed from the village. As a S-class mission, they have to provide me with a safety guard of at least a top elite(jonin) ninja. I was sitting in the cart. Jiraya-trio were around me and team leader is in incognito mode. Team leader is from Hyuga clan(white eye- clan).
Structure and details of this world is somewhat different from animation. Because this is a real world so certain political correctness and time lines are not same. Like Tsunade never saw 1st or 2nd hokage, they died before she was born.
In animation, there are lot of content without specifying the correct timeline which would deem impossible if we follow the normal logic. So, there could be lot of things which would not happen exactly like story. In a single world, certain time-periods have stretched. Because novel or animation have to deliver exciting content, so they compress everything and time-line becomes chaotic.
Ninja Village always have knowledge to bandit's hideout. Its just they don't pose any threat so until someone post mission about to clear them, ninja generally do not help clearing them.
It's like national intelligence agency. They have a lot of information about tax fraud, thieves, corruption or other small time felons but they only take actions against people who pose threat to national security.
Ninjas village also operate similarly. They have capability of national intelligence and play role of military as well as mercenary. So, they don't interfere with small conflict of ordinary people and crimes committed by them.
Generally, warrior do the task of protecting civilian if it involves ordinary bandits and some low level rouge ninja.
So this time when i asked about the details of bandit's nest along the way. They gave me atleast 15 locations from which i only picked 6. I think this much will be sufficient for my training.
One day has passed.
Last night i slept in bull-cart and others slept on trees. Today we are going to visit a small village of around 150 people.
We reached the village in the morning. We stayed at the inn which was the only inn in whole village.
Because this is my unilateral action, so we cannot let them know that we came here to kill bandits. Also, there might be a spy in the village.
For me this was totally a new experience. How to gather the information regarding bandits? Their numbers, approximate location and how strong are they. What should we do if the bandits are mixed in village as normal villagers. How to identify them.
Jiraya and orochimaru separately took actions. In this small village pretty much everyone know each other. Some unknown lone little girl traveling on street is eye catching. So, I get to tag along with Tsunade.
She taught me basics to know the exact power of enemy only then we could plan our action further. We ate some dango on the street and asked the person on vendor if the security around the village is good or should we hire bodyguards.
Somehow we shifted our conversations about bandits and village conditions or the sad condition of villagers. I was supersized by how smooth Tsunade talks and perfectly led the conversations for a 8 year old. It's her 3rd year after graduation. I don't know if all ninjas undergo this type of training after graduation because I never got the chance. It also shows her wisdom is extraordinary.
"So, basically numbers of bandits are around 20. And only 4 people have extraordinary strength and basically are rouge warriors." But I still have doubts, so i asked to the stall owner "still villager could subdue bandits easily. Village still have so many people. Then, they don't have to fear of going out."
"We tried once, but those 4 warrior still escaped our encirclement. From then on they never enter village in full force. Some of them remain outside. If we rebelled then they opt for sneak method in night and then kidnap our children or wives." stall owner further said
"We have to give each month food to them otherwise they would kill and burn in night"
After listening to him, I get to know a different scenario. Bandits are not always all powerful villains who have surrendered whole village under them. Here, they are acting more like a mouse in a house. Owner can kill it only if he is able to catch it.
After 2 hour, we all met at the hotel again.
Then orochimaru said " there are two methods. First announce that we are here to deal with bandits. Then, spy will definitely try to alert their boss and try to leave the village. Village is small so we could observe around it easily and after catching the spy we could know exact location. But it will waste one more day"
"Second, We already have general idea where bandits are. We could just trace directly and sneak attack at their base. From bandits we could know that If there are any spy in village then we could come back and kill them. This saves the time"
After half an hour we left the village and opted for second method. I get to learn how to trace human in the forest. After another half an hour we reached the bandits hideout.
When it was time to act, I got nervous. I said " can you separate one or two? I want to fight some where so that it will not disturb rest of the group." I wanted to prepare myself to cut people. Even after living in this world for so long, I still feels uncomfortable inside.
Orochimaru simply nodded. He performed illusion on two of the gate keepers. They simply unconsciously walked towards the distant area.
I got into the position when two of them become conscious. They were surprised to find me standing in front of them
"who are you?"
I didn't answer them and slash forward.
to be continued......
Like Tsunade never saw 1st or 2nd hokage, they died before she was born.
I remember the 1st hokage, after being reanimated during the 4th(?) war, saying that Tsunade picked up gambling because of his influence or something like that... So I'm pretty sure she at least met him once. (Could be wrong cuz.. It's been a while since I've watched Naruto..)
But if that's the case, then your whole up until now conflicts with the OG series... cuz if Hashirama was alive, then the country wouldn't be so peaceful cuz he and Tobirama died in war... So Is this the time period in which the 1st great war happened?
I'm not a hardcore Naruto fan so I'm really confused about this... It'd be great if someone can clarify things for me...
source- https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Tobirama_Senju
1. Hashirama died shortly after konoha was established[after battle with madara]
2. Tobirama became hokage [created academy, anbu and chunin exam] and during his reign conflict between villages intensified which led to first world war. He died in first world war in an ambush.
3. Then Hiruzen became hokage in midst of the war or after the war.
FACT-[timeline of naruto-series is not very good but we know for sure that tsunade is 51 year old when naruto+ jiraya went for searching her(for 5th hokage position) ][source-https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Tsunade]
A)FACT- if we backtrack than she is around 39 years old when naruto is born.
B) she participated in 2nd war and looked quite mature atleast looks more than 18-19 year old. Her brother died at age 12 during second world war. [Age diff between tsundade and his brother should be 8-10 years- see anime pictures]
C) FACT-Second world war conflict started after 20 years of peace[first world war]
D)So, Tsunade is born after first world war or midst of world war. But First world war started because after death of first hokage[everyone has innate fear of Madara or first hokage's god like power. so they waited for first hokage to die.].
Thats why- I felt that she couldn't have met first hokage.
Here our protagonist[Kouske] just born after first world war and tsunade is 2 year younger than him.
Note: everyone has different perception about timeline. But if you add movies and trivia - you will totally get confused about timeline.

In this video, Hashirama says that he spoiled her(tsunade) rotten.. So she has to be at least 3 by the time Hashirama dies(Google says so)... So If the 1st world war started after the 1st hokage's death, then Tsunade, and the MC who is 2 years younger than Tsunade, must've experienced the 1st world war during their childhoods...
This is becoming more and more confusing for me so know what.. Just forget I ever said anything... I'll just pretend that things went a bit differently and some things from the OG story didn't happen in this fic..
This is exactly why fanfics are so problematic... Forget one little detail from the OG story and the whole fic gets messed up... You've been doin a great job so far. So I hope my comment doesn't make you upset and affect your mood to write this story or anything...

Cool...I get your suggestion
But...I am not saying that Tsunade didn't meet Hashirama in anime. It's just in my fanfiction, it never happened. Previous comment was the reason for this change I made.
ok i was loving the story until i read this paragraph

Well, I didn't change much(less than 10%)
Because, I thought naruto's historical timeline is very compressed. So many events happening simultaneously. You cannot connect logically all the events[like many filler chapters and naruto movies].
Certain political and financial system also needed to be adjusted.[I personally think most author have primary goal in their early stage of story is to keep audience engaged. Then when it becomes too famous than they have to patch some early mistakes they made in the setting and world view. But certain patches cannot be fixed because they become soul of the story.]
Author is just a man. He cannot have all the knowledge regarding financial system[Example- harry potter] or political system. When audience base grows and input from different field started to comes, then other also realize what is wrong with the setting.
So, I thought may be it is good to adjust certain setting without effecting audience interest.
Nice
