Chapter 171 Tsunade's Finger Massage
Chapter 171 Tsunade's Finger Massage (th update)
The country of Sichuan.
Fog suddenly rose in a forest, followed by screams.
After a moment, the sound of breaking wind was heard.
Tsunade, Hanekawa, Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin arrived.
"It's too late."
Tsunade smelled the strong smell of blood in the air and her face looked a little bad.
"There are six ninjas left."
Hanekawa closed his eyes and said.
"Prepare for battle! Kill them!"
Tsunade said in a deep voice.
After she finished speaking, her body sank into the thick fog.
Hanekawa followed closely behind, but Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin stayed where they were.
This is the tactic their team has come up with over the past week.
the reason is simple.
When the ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village discover Tsunade's identity, they often flee.
At this time, Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin, who were guarding outside, played a blocking role.
Wind Escape Gale Palm!
Hanekawa formed seals with his hands and slapped the thick fog.
The wind chakra condensed and compressed in his hands, and when it reached the critical point, it turned into a strong wind.
One third of the thick fog was blown away in an instant, revealing the figures of three ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village.
Hanekawa had never demonstrated wind jutsu in front of Tsunade before, he only started doing so this week.
He thought about it carefully and decided that since he already had a genius character, he might as well follow through with it.
In fact, as he expected, Tsunade didn't feel that surprised.
After all, Hanekawa has already used Water Style, Lightning Style, Fire Style and Earth Style, and adding Wind Style would be... very reasonable.
"Enemy attack!"
One of the jonin from the Hidden Mist Village immediately issued a warning.
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly widened.
Because he saw Tsunade.
"quick……"
But before he could even utter the word "run", the body of the Jōnin from the Hidden Mist Village was sent flying by a punch.
Hanekawa didn't care about Tsunade. With her strength, nothing would happen to her.
He took out the Thunder and Fire Sword, and with a flash of his body, he rushed towards the three ninjas hiding in the fog.
The sound of breaking wind sounded.
Dense kunai flew towards him.
The Dance of the Three Suns and Moons!
Hanekawa's body shook, and two shadow clones appeared in the smoke.
The shadow clone on the left formed seals with his hands, and suddenly a wall of water rose up.
Hanekawa leaped forward, stepped on the water wall, and reached mid-air.
His speed was incredibly fast, and lightning flashed from the thunder and fire sword in his hand.
The face of the Chunin from the Hidden Mist Village who was facing him suddenly changed.
He felt a strong sense of crisis.
But just as he touched the kunai in his bag, the Thunder and Fire Sword flew over and pierced his throat.
Blood spurted out.
"asshole!"
Another ninja from the Hidden Mist Village quickly formed hand seals.
A rapid stream of water gushed out from his mouth, instantly expanded in the air, and turned into a large water ball that smashed towards Hanekawa.
As soon as Hanekawa drew out the Thunder and Fire Sword, the big water ball was already above his head.
But he didn't care at all.
Because his shadow clone formed seals in time.
Earth Release·Earth Dragon Bullet!
The ground rolled, forming a quagmire. A dragon head emerged and spit out a mud bomb.
The mud bomb leaped out and collided with the big water ball.
Instantaneous technique!
Hanekawa's body disappeared where it was.
The Mist Village ninja was startled and looked around.
But what he didn't notice was that above his head, the air twisted and a pile of clay fell from the sky, burying him alive.
There was a flash of lightning.
Hanekawa held the Thunderfire Sword in both hands and stabbed it into the clay.
A large amount of blood seeped out.
He turned his head and saw the last Mist Village ninja fall to the ground with a muffled sound.
It is Hanekawa's second shadow clone.
He used Konoha Style: Yanagi.
Hanekawa dispersed the two shadow clones and looked at Tsunade.
Her speed was also good, and she successfully dealt with the other three Mist Village ninjas.
At this point, all six Mist Village ninjas died.
The thick fog gradually dissipated, revealing the bodies of the people.
In addition to the six ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village, there are also four ninjas from the Konoha Village.
Hanekawa sighed and put away the Thunder and Fire Sword.
War is so cruel. He has seen many corpses of his comrades and has long been used to it.
"Hanekawa, how is it?"
Xihihong hurried over and asked.
"I am fine."
Hanekawa smiled and patted her head.
Nohara Lin, who was walking forward, stopped immediately when she saw this scene.
Tsunade silently checked the four Konoha Village ninjas on the ground, and after making sure that they were beyond saving, she released a flare.
This is to notify the ninja team in the Konoha Village camp to come and collect the bodies and guard the outpost.
After waiting for half an hour, eight Konoha Village ninjas appeared.
Tsunade didn't need to say anything before they moved the body away.
The remaining team will enter the outpost and start organizing and arranging. They will replace the dead ninja.
"Let's go back."
Tsunade took a quick look around and turned to walk out.
Hanekawa, Yuhi Kurenai and Nohara Rin hurriedly followed.
"Tsunade-sama."
As soon as we returned to the camp, Nara Suzaku came up to us and said, "A lot of information has come from Konoha Village."
"Send it to my tent."
Tsunade said casually.
Sarutobi Hiruzen would regularly send ANBU to pass on information to them, so she was used to it.
But today, after seeing my dead companion, I was in a bad mood and was too lazy to check the main account.
"Yes."
Nara Suzaku nodded, turned and left.
"You guys go and rest."
Tsunade glanced at Kurenai Yuhi and Rin Nohara and walked into her tent.
"Tsunade-sensei..."
Nohara Lin hesitated to speak, her tone somewhat worried.
"Nothing."
Hanekawa said and followed.
He opened the door curtain and couldn't help blinking.
Tsunade sat on the carpet, her whole body hunched over the table.
He could clearly see the deformed clothes and the heavy burden that was crushed.
Hanekawa thought about it, then stopped and stood still.
"Hanekawa."
Half a minute later, Nara Suzaku appeared and handed him the documents in his hand.
"Thank you."
Hanekawa took the documents, walked into the tent, and sat down opposite Tsunade.
"Read it to me."
Tsunade looked up at him, looking lazy.
Hanekawa nodded slightly and opened the file casually. Just one glance at it made him feel shocked.
He suppressed his surprise and read: "Orochimaru advanced recklessly and fell into the trap of the Hidden Cloud Village, resulting in hundreds of casualties."
"what's the situation?"
Tsunade asked, sitting up suddenly.
The clothes trembled as she moved.
Hanekawa's eyelids jumped and he handed her the document.
Tsunade immediately started reading.
Hanekawa looked at her, slightly distracted.
He wondered if Orochimaru did it on purpose or by accident.
The content of the document is not complicated and it talks about what happened the day before yesterday.
Perhaps Orochimaru discovered the two lone Yukitos, so he led a group of ninjas there, but they were ambushed.
The fourth Raikage Ai and Killer Bee appeared at the same time and launched a fierce attack on them. After a fierce battle, Orochimaru and his companions escaped, but lost hundreds of ninjas.
However, the Uchiha clan suffered the greatest losses.
Because Orochimaru brought a lot of Uchiha ninjas with him, which eventually led to their deaths.
There are even four Uchiha jonin among them.
Of course, this is also the reason why Hanekawa became suspicious.
As a fan of the original work, he naturally knew about Orochimaru's obsession with the Uchiha clan or the Sharingan, and even taught Uchiha Sasuke.
"How could Orochimaru make such a mistake?"
Tsunade finished reading the document and couldn't help but frown.
"The battlefield is changing rapidly, and no one can guarantee anything."
Hanekawa came back to his senses and said.
"That being said, Orochimaru is a veteran of battles, so he shouldn't be so reckless."
Tsunade exhaled and sighed, "Losing hundreds of people at once is a huge blow to Konoha Village."
If there were a hundred Genin, it wouldn't have such a big impact, but there were quite a few Jonin among them.
"The Hidden Cloud Village is not the Hidden Mist Village or the Hidden Sand Village. They have too many strong people."
Hanekawa shook his head and said soothingly.
how to say?
Whatever the reason, Orochimaru did fail.
In contrast, Tsunade had just dealt with Biwa Juuzou and Kuroki Raiga.
In short, in the first round of confrontation between the two Hokage candidates, Tsunade had the upper hand.
Although she had no intention of competing with Orochimaru, just because she didn't have the intention didn't mean that other ninjas didn't have the intention.
The Uchiha clan suffered heavy losses this time, and they might have already suspected Orochimaru.
"Indeed."
Tsunade suppressed her emotions, nodded and said, "The strength of the Hidden Cloud Village is no worse than that of the Hidden Leaf Village, so it is normal that it is difficult to fight."
"Hokage-sama, any reaction?"
Hanekawa thought for a moment and asked.
He didn't finish reading the document, only saw the information related to Orochimaru, and gave it to Tsunade.
"Danzo volunteered to lead the Anbu to the Frost Country."
Tsunade snorted coldly and said, "This old fellow is still ruthless!"
Danzo?
Hanekawa's heart moved.
Could it be that this reckless advance was suggested by Danzo Shimura?
Did he feel a sense of urgency after hearing that Tsunade killed Biwa Juuzou and Kurochu Raiga?
After all, Orochimaru has many choices, he can choose not to be Hokage, but Shimura Danzo cannot.
His only hope is Orochimaru.
Hanekawa stroked his chin.
If you think about it carefully, Danzo Shimura is really not weak, and can be called the strongest wind-style ninja in Konoha Village.
In addition, he is also good at sealing techniques, and even knows Izanagi's eye technique, which is similar to the resurrection technique.
It's true that people can do anything when they are pushed into a corner.
In the original work, there is no mention that Danzo Shimura participated in the Third Ninja World War, it only says that he cooperated with Hanzo and forced Yahiko to death.
Now, in order to maintain my position, I work very hard.
"Orochimaru will have a headache with the things happening in the Hidden Cloud Village."
Tsunade put the file down and said, "We have to find the headquarters of the Hidden Mist Village as soon as possible."
"They are too agile at sea."
"It was hard for us to catch them," Hanekawa said, recalling several missed shots this week.
"It's really troublesome."
Tsunade rubbed her forehead and said.
"How about I give it a try?"
Hanekawa asked tentatively.
Although the Hyuga clan's Byakugan is very useful for reconnaissance, they are not good at water-based jutsu, so its effectiveness is greatly reduced at sea.
Many times, before they reach the range of the Byakugan, they have already been noticed by the water-style ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village.
Hanekawa is different, he can move freely in the sea.
He also learned the water style of water instant body movement from Hanzo, which allows him to blend perfectly into the water.
With the addition of the 'Water Style Special Jonin' entry, Hanekawa is confident that his Water Style can rank among the top ten in the Hidden Mist Village.
Moreover, he can choose to go out on rainy days, so that he can trigger the "Rain God" entry.
With the addition of 100% water escape power, he felt that he could even be in the top three, let alone the top ten.
"no!"
Tsunade said without even thinking about refusing.
She naturally knew that Hanekawa was the most suitable candidate, but this matter was too dangerous. If she was not careful, she would end up being surrounded.
She absolutely could not allow such a thing.
After all, she had already lost Nawaki, and it was impossible for her to lose Hanekawa again.
"teacher."
Hanekawa held her hand and said, "I'm not weak. I can run away if I'm discovered."
"What if it's the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?"
Tsunade asked, staring at him.
"That's okay."
Hanekawa said indifferently, “I have the Yin Seal, I can at least hold out against their siege for half an hour.”
"Shut up!"
Tsunade glared at him and said with great dissatisfaction.
I’m going to die anyway, so what’s the point of persisting for half an hour?
"Half an hour is enough time for the teacher to come and rescue me."
Hanekawa smiled and said, "I mean for the two of us to go together."
Tsunade couldn't help but be startled.
If two people go together, there is danger, but it is not life-threatening.
Just as Hanekawa said, as long as she gets there in time.
"you……"
Tsunade was about to say something when she met his determined gaze.
She pursed her lips and fell silent.
"I'll go with you tomorrow."
After a moment, Tsunade said slowly.
She felt quite complicated, as this little kid had finally grown up.
"Ok!"
Hanekawa nodded vigorously.
how to say?
It was indeed an adventure.
But he has a lot of tricks up his sleeve now, so it's worth a try.
Of course, the main reason is to help Tsunade become Hokage.
As long as they kill these Seven Ninja Swordsmen, they will be far ahead of Orochimaru.
Tsunade suddenly noticed that Hanekawa was holding her hand, and she felt something strange in her heart.
But she hesitated and did not pull her hand away.
"The sea is boundless, it's not easy for you to find them."
Tsunade thought for a moment and said seriously, "Don't rush for quick results. Take your time. It doesn't matter if you spend more time."
She was worried that Hanekawa would be too aggressive and fall into a trap or ambush.
"I see."
Hanekawa blinked.
He noticed that Tsunade didn't seem to mind being shaken.
Hanekawa's heart moved, and he pinched her slender fingers and scratched her palm.
"...?"
Tsunade looked at him subconsciously.
How dare you, little devil, go further?
"teacher."
Hanekawa said nonsense seriously, "I know a set of massage techniques that can relieve finger fatigue. Do you want to try it?"
"What is it?"
Tsunade paused and asked.
"Spread your hands."
Hanekawa raised his eyebrows and said.
Tsunade stretched out her hand, and her five white fingers slightly parted, revealing her delicate and smooth palm.
It's so beautiful.
Hanekawa thought about it and held her hand, then slowly placed his two thumbs on her palms.
Tsunade's heart trembled slightly, but she found that he didn't know how to massage at all.
She could still tell who had skills and who didn't.
But the weight is moderate and it is really comfortable.
Tsunade just let him massage her.
