Chapter 178: Visit
Although the hemophobia haunted Tsunade like a nightmare for years, after Kato's efforts to silence — or rather, under the paralysis of alcohol — Tsunade finally returned to normal the next day after a night's rest.
As Shikamaru expected, when Jiraiya and Shikamaru faced Tsunade's request to return to Konoha Village with them in the early morning of the next morning, Tsunade found various reasons to refuse to fulfill the gambling agreement, and the more straightforward Akido Dingji and Uzumaki Naruto felt a little angry and questioned Tsunade loudly.
"I didn't say I'll go back to Konoha with you right away!" Tsunade snorted, not at all as if he didn't care about the ugliness of being injured in the battle with Shikamaru and Shikamaru Shimobu last night, and blinked a little slyly and said to Naruto and Dingji.
Naruto Uzumaki and Akido Dingji couldn't help but become dumbfounded when they heard this, obviously unable to understand Tsunade's way of thinking that Tsunade obviously had a lot of prestige in the ninja world, but he could still justifiably quibble about his debts.
Jiraiya patted his forehead, looking like he had expected it a long time ago, he knew that Tsunade would not easily return to Konoha with them, Tsunade was a woman, a beautiful woman, and a powerful beautiful woman...... if Tsunade was really willing to go back to Konoha Village with Jiraiya, he would have to worry about something abnormal. What's more, because he doubts the existence of Orochimaru, he doesn't want to return to Konoha Village now, and judging from the current situation, it is the best time to solve Orochimaru.
Tsunade doesn't seem to object to Jiraiya living in the hotel where she settled with Shikamaru on the surface, at least on the surface, but it's far from being close to a few people, last night's battle, although Tsunade had taken the initiative to suppress his strength at the beginning, but he didn't notice it for a while, he was injured by his juniors, and she couldn't let go of her always strong immediately, for this, Jiraiya and Shikamaru were barely able to understand.
However, Shikamaru's understanding is based on the strength of Tsunade himself, if Tsunade does not have the strength he has now, or if he does not have the help of Shizune, he has countless ways to forcibly bring him back to Konoha Village, and it has nothing to do with whether he is a woman or not.
…………
The progress of the mission was not smooth, which made Akido Dingji look a little sullen, compared to him, although Naruto Uzumaki was also surprised by Tsunade's performance, but he could barely let go of the fact that he was also a little unreliable on weekdays.
It's not easy to detect and monitor a person's whereabouts without any flaws, especially if the person is an experienced ninja.
When he met with Yakushidou and Orochimaru, he had already agreed on the channels of communication, and none of the three of them were immature rookies, and there was also Aoke as an internal response, even if it was Jiraiya and Shikamaru, it was difficult to find the abnormality.
Because Tsunade has been found, Jiraiya and Shikamaru no longer need to go to various gambling houses every day to investigate, and there are many more people, and Tsunade has the opportunity to move freely without being suspected.
Wandering aimlessly on the streets, inspecting the handicrafts on the stalls, the Eagle secretly observes whether there are any stalkers behind him while checking the goods, and even if he doesn't find anything unusual, he still doesn't stop this seemingly meaningless behavior.
After a while, he walked to a stall selling masks, picked and chose with a calm expression, and finally picked up a fox mask and put it on his face, turned his head to look around, as if he was not very satisfied, put down the fox mask again, picked up the wolf head mask next to him, took two steps after taking it, and in the disappointed eyes of the stall owner, put down the mask, without paying for it, and strolled away from the stall, it seemed to be the same as before, purely for fun.
On the building far from the street where the eagle is located, there are two men standing on the balcony, one of them is a young man with long gray hair and purple clothes is holding a pair of monoculars, observing the eagle's every move, the black-haired man next to him is pale, there seems to be no blood, if you look closely, you can find that although the weather is not hot at this time, and there are not many clothes on his body, but at this time the sweat between his foreheads continues to secrete, and his face also looks a little impatient.
These two people,It was the big snake pill and Yakushidou who came to the short book street to look for Tsunade.,This time period,It's the time when he and the duck agreed to hand over the information.,Yakushidou has been using a telescope to observe the movement on the street.,When the duck entered the end of the street,He noticed it.,Eyes fell on the other party.,Sometimes also look for whether there is a stalker behind him.。
After Yakushi Dou saw the movement of the obe on the mask paving, he chuckled, folded the monoculars and put it away, and saw that Orochimaru looked at him with some doubts, and said loudly: "The oyster said that Jiraiya and his group have begun to suspect him, so they did not succeed in preventing the Konoha team from finding Tsunade as agreed before the plan was carried out, and now Jiraiya and others have temporarily lived with Tsunade." ”
The fox represents cunning and suspicion, while the wolf represents a group and a team, and the eagle uses these two animals to prompt the medicine man, so that the other party can contact the relevant events and get information.
Unexpectedly, when it was discovered that Orochiya had not fulfilled his previous agreement and succeeded in preventing Jiraiya from meeting with Tsunade, Orochimaru did not have the slightest anger on his face.
"Sure enough, it's a member of the 'root', a subordinate taught by Shimura Danzo." Orochimaru sneered, his long scarlet tongue spit out from his bloodless lips, licking the corners of his mouth unconsciously, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "That kid can't be trusted after all, I know this old guy Shimura Danzo very well, he won't be willing to cooperate with me." ”
"If he could, he would be eager to find a chance to get rid of me!" Orochimaru looked at the expressionless pharmacist and said, "Although it is troublesome, there is no need to forget our original purpose for him. ”
"The main target this time is Tsunade, Jiraiya and Shimura Danzo ......." Orochimaru glanced at the back of the black-clad and conspicuous Eagle in the street, and said lightly, "If it's not necessary, don't pay attention to them." ”
I'm the main one.
Orochimaru's meaning couldn't be more obvious, he didn't believe in Orochimaru and Shimura Tunzang behind him from the beginning, the other party tried to throw out the existence of Jiya to disrupt Orochimaru's steps and thinking, but this is not meaningful to Orochimaru who has been through the storm for a long time, he has never been a fool who wants to swallow elephants, just like when he faced the defeat of Uchiha Itachi, he gave up continuing to test and ambush for the first time, and turned to look for the more immature Uchiha Sasuke, he would rather back down for the time being, but also hope to get more chips to win, If you want to kill Jiraiya, when he recovers, he can do it himself, and even if he destroys Konoha Village, no one can stop him!
…………
That night, after Jiraiya invited Tsunade to drink but was unceremoniously rejected by the other party, he looked a little sullen and took Shikamaru and a few people to find a shop on the commercial street far from the hotel to eat barbecue, leaving only Tsunade and Shizune alone, and he didn't want to force Tsunade too much, after all, inheriting the Hokage's matter was something that couldn't be forced.
This meal was treated by Jiraiya, which made Naruto Uzumaki, who had been suffering from the oppression of the other party, couldn't help but let go of his stomach and eat hard, learning the style of Akido Dingji, without a bit of eating, compared to Shikamaru's eating speed is not slow, but it is always much quieter, as for the eagle, he still maintains his usual appearance, quiet, and even looks a little gloomy.
Jiraiya's behavior made the fish a little puzzled, at this moment, at least some people should be left in the hotel, watch Tsunade, and prevent the other party from escaping, after all, it was a female ninja who had owed huge debts in countless areas, but had not repaid it until today, and it was not impossible to run away.
Not to mention the various performances of Jiraiya and Shikamaru at the dinner table, at the hotel where several people stayed, Tsunade was kneeling face-to-face with Shizune, eating the dinner delivered by the hotel in a silent atmosphere.
Tsunade is still immersed in the trade-off entanglement between his lover and Konoha Village, and Shizune doesn't know how to comfort Tsunade at this time, even the pet pig guinea dolphin feels that the atmosphere at the dinner table at this time is too silent, and there is a huge difference from the previous atmosphere.
Bang! Bang!
Two gentle knocks suddenly came into the room, and after Kato Shizun heard it, he put down his rice bowl and got up, ready to open the door, but the pet pig guinea porpoise, which had been lying quietly on the ground to eat, suddenly jumped up, stopped in front of her, snorted in a low voice, and kept shaking his head, and didn't care about the rice sticking to his mouth falling to the ground.
Shizune and Tsunade saw the guinea dolphin's movements, their pupils shrank slightly, and the mute movement that had already gotten up couldn't help but slow down, and at this time, the visitors outside the door seemed to have left after finding that no one had opened the door for him, and the knocking on the door suddenly stopped.
Bang!
A louder collision sound suddenly came out, and Tsunade suddenly got up, rushed to the living room with Shizune, and found that the door had been destroyed and fell to the floor of the living room, and two slender men stood in the doorway.
"Tsunade......." One of them, a slightly taller man with long black hair, spoke, his hoarse voice like a snake swallowing a letter: "How have you considered my proposal?" ”
"Sorry, we seem to be in a bit of a hurry." The companion next to the man with long black hair and a pale face pushed the round frameless eyes on the bridge of his nose at this time, and said with a chuckle: "But this is a serious problem, and we have no choice but to do it, please forgive me!" ”
When she saw the appearance of these two men clearly, Mute's gaze involuntarily contracted slightly, and her pupils formed a dangerous pin-and-needle shape, and even Tsunade beside her unconsciously frowned tightly.
These two men are none other than Yakushidou and Orochimaru!
