The young man seemed to have used up his last bit of strength to barely finish this sentence. As soon as he finished speaking, his hand fell.
Tsunade's eyes widened and tears welled up for a moment.
Chapter 86 Tsunade's Grandma
late at night.
Shizune and Jiraiya were waiting quietly in the corridor of the B&B they had booked in Tansho Street, looking worried.
Jiraiya's face looked very depressed. Just now he was confident that Tsunade and Naruto would not be able to catch up with Orochimaru, so he deliberately did not follow them.
To give Orochimaru a chance to survive.
But when he saw the bloody Tsunade holding Naruto back, he was dumbfounded.
He hadn't expected this outcome.
"How could this happen?" Jiraiya grabbed the corner of his clothes in distress: "With Naruto's strength, he shouldn't be injured when dealing with Orochimaru's subordinate."
As if influenced by Jiraiya, Shizune sitting opposite him also sighed.
Shizune had heard Tsunade say countless times about this adult, who was kind and merciful.
This is his greatest strength and also his greatest weakness.
Because he treats people like Orochimaru with the same kindness, this kindness sometimes turns into a sharp sword that stabs people around him.
After a while, the sound of "click, click, click" of high heels came from the room, and Shizune and Jiraiya came forward at the same time.
Tsunade was still wearing the bloody clothes, and her young face looked a little tired under the dim light.
"Naruto is fine, he just fell asleep due to exhaustion. His right hand is a little more serious, and a lot of the meridians below the elbow have been cut. I just healed him, and it will probably take a week or two before he can use it normally."
Hearing Tsunade's words, Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief, and the cloud of worry dissipated in an instant.
"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."
Jiraiya patted his chest in relief. If something really happened to Naruto under his care, he would not be able to face Minato and his wife again after he died.
Is everything okay?
Tsunade's eyes met Jiraiya. This old friend was just like her grandfather, Hashirama Senju, who often did things that were breathtaking.
But she was also wrong today, and she felt that she had no right to teach Jiraiya a lesson.
Exhaling, Tsunade turned her gaze to Shizune, "Get me some hot water and a change of clothes. I need to take a shower."
"I'll get ready right away." Shizune walked away with her long, smooth legs.
Tsunade left a message saying "Don't disturb Naruto, let him have a good rest" and followed Shizune.
During this period, there was no extra communication between me and Jiraiya.
"Tsunade hates me again." Jiraiya felt as if there was a fish bone stuck in his chest, which was not very comfortable.
After decades, Tsunade has never given him a good look.
"."
Meanwhile, Naruto was observing the upgraded storage space in his spirit world.
It was upgraded from the original ten square meters to one hundred square meters, which made it much more spacious, but after searching for a long time, I found no extra special abilities.
This time it's just a simple expansion of the scope.
"Well, that's not bad." Naruto was quite content. This upgrade was already good. At least it could store a lot of things.
Yawning, Naruto planned to exit the mental space and let his consciousness return to his body.
In order to prevent Tsunade from noticing that he was acting, Naruto chose to upgrade and fall asleep without hesitation.
I don’t know what the situation is outside now.
The moonlight shone into the room, and the branches of plum blossoms outside left faint shadows on the floor.
Just as Naruto was about to open his eyes, the door creaked open and Tsunade, wrapped in a short off-white nightgown, walked in quietly and sat down on the edge of the bed.
He raised his hand and gently touched Naruto's cheek, recalling some events from many years ago and fell into reminiscence.
I felt her hands were still a little wet.
With the help of moonlight, Naruto squinted his eyes and looked at Tsunade. She seemed to have just taken a shower. Her long golden hair seemed to have been dried with a towel and was still slightly wet.
The moist and translucent skin is rosy, just like a daffodil, charming and seductive.
"When did you wake up?" Tsunade noticed Naruto was peeping and gently poked his forehead.
"Just now, I didn't expect that this would be discovered by Lady Tsunade."
Naruto scratched his head and sat up. His shoulder-length golden hair fell from his ears, with a few strands sticking to his lips, looking a little hazy under the bright light.
He looks like a boy who walked out of a painting.
Judging from appearance alone, I feel that Naruto is more suitable for the role of a younger brother than Nawaki, and he is somewhat similar to me.
Tsunade stretched out her slender fingers and placed them at the corners of Naruto's lips, brushing his hair aside.
"Did I wake you up?"
Her voice was surprisingly gentle, it wasn't like that when she beat Jiraiya before.
Listening to her voice, Naruto had some ideas in his mind, lowered his head and said embarrassedly: "No, I was scared and woke up from a nightmare."
"Nightmare?" Tsunade asked with concern, "Is it because of the injury you just received?"
Naruto shook his head again, his face turning a little sad, "No, I just dreamed about myself."
Tsunade frowned slightly, "How come dreaming about myself is also a nightmare?"
Tears welled up in Naruto's eyes: "Let's not talk about this, after all, it's all in the past."
Hearing this, Tsunade was stunned and suddenly had some bad thoughts.
She had a general understanding of how each country treated the Jinchūriki, and almost every Jinchūriki suffered discrimination.
But this kind of thing shouldn't happen in Konoha.
Tsunade thought about it and realized that the previous Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Kushina and her grandmother Uzumaki Mito had never been looked down upon by any villagers because of the Nine-Tails.
"It will be better if you talk about the troubles in your heart."
Tsunade placed her soft palm on top of Naruto's head and ruffled his hair.
Finally, under Tsunade's questioning, Naruto exaggerated the suffering his original body had endured over the years.
He had no food to eat, was so hungry that his bones were visible, and was often beaten by villagers. Neighbors called him trash and a monster, and wished him a quick death.
Naruto became more and more excited as he spoke, and as he spoke he hugged Tsunade, lowered his head into her chest and sobbed softly.
As Naruto cried, he lay in Tsunade's arms and closed his eyes, as if he was still thinking about the disaster of his childhood, and continued to sob.
"Thank you for your hard work." Tsunade sighed and hugged Naruto tightly in her arms.
She placed her hands on Naruto's back and gently stroked it as if she was comforting a child, as gentle as a goddess in spring.
I didn't expect old man Sarutobi to be so cruel.
In order to achieve the goal, even these things can be done.
Is it really necessary for people to be that greedy?
Tsunade couldn't figure it out. She felt that Naruto was a really pitiful child. And it was such a pitiful Naruto when she was about to be attacked by Orochimaru.
It was like a god descending to earth to save her.
Thinking of this, Tsunade suddenly remembered what she came here for. She wanted to ask Naruto why he was going to chase Orochimaru.
Could it be that, as he said before he fell into a coma, he did it just to help her get revenge?
Tsunade felt that this reason was a bit far-fetched.
But Naruto was sad now, so it was obviously not appropriate to ask questions.
I'll find another opportunity to ask another day.
After a long while, Tsunade slowly let go of Naruto and said softly, "Go to sleep. I should go back to bed too."
"etc."
"what happened?"
"Tsunade-sama, can you hold me while I sleep?" Naruto's soft voice was filled with pleading, anticipation, and
Tsunade lowered her eyes, a little hesitant: "Didn't you tell me before that you are not a child anymore, why do you still need someone to hold you to sleep?"
Because it’s so comfortable and spicy!
It feels like living in a dream.
Naruto sniffed softly, resting his head on Tsunade's neck and rubbing his face against her shoulder: "I'm afraid of having a nightmare again. Being held by Lady Tsunade makes me feel safe."
"Okay, let me just consider this as a reward for saving your life." Tsunade said in a joking tone and lay down with Naruto.
She covered Naruto with the quilt, pulled him into her tender embrace, and talked to him face to face, her hot breath touching his mouth and nose.
"Go to sleep!" Tsunade said as she closed her eyes first.
Naruto stopped making trouble. He put his arms around Tsunade's snow-white neck, yawned, and fell asleep.
"."
The next day, the morning mist dissipated and the sun rose.
Miss Shizune walked with her long white legs, forcibly holding the little pig who was still sleeping soundly, to go find Lady Tsunade.
However, after opening the door, he was surprised to find that Lady Tsunade was not in the room.
Considering what happened yesterday, Miss Shizune suspected that Lady Tsunade might have gone to cause trouble for Orochimaru again, and immediately knocked on Jiraiya's door in panic.
When Jiraiya heard this, he also thought it was very possible.
So the two of them immediately decided to call Naruto and then go find Tsunade.
Who knew, the moment he opened Naruto's door.
Both of them were dumbfounded.
