Chapter 121: Rivalry (2)

Amid the innkeeper's scolding, the three culprits had already left the city of the Moon Country and came to a quiet mountain on the outskirts.

Today is the last quarter of the moon, and because of the special geographical environment, the half-hook in the upper right corner of the moon is slightly red, as if it is shy. An extremely bright star shimmered purple and hung diagonally above the moon.

There is a forest on the mountain, which is not very dense and not as strong as the leaves, but it grows straight one by one. In places close to the Land of Snow, the winter is much longer than in normal places, although it is not as cold as in the Land of Snow. The trees here are hardy and sturdy, and they are very fine wood and carving utensils.

Shizune stood on the tree with a helpless face, watching the battle between Hippo Hanyu and Tsunade from afar. In my memory, it is rare for a ninja of this age to be able to perform ten moves under Tsunade at the level of Hippo Hanyu. But seeing that Hippo Hanyu was still flexible, she was only surprised and admired.

Among the young people of Konoha, except for the late Bo Feng Shuimen, the most admired by their classmates is Hippo Hanyu, no matter what kind of environment he is, he is always smiling and grinning, and it seems that nothing can difficult him.

"Bastard, why don't you attack?" Tsunade scolded angrily, but there was no ambiguity in his hands.

"Didn't you see me wearing a suit today? This is too damaging to Sven. Hippo Hanyu rolled his eyes, and seemed to really care about his clothes.

Hippo Hanyu's words naturally angered Tsunade even more, the punch blew by the wind, and the sturdy trees were also swept down by Tsunade, and the cracks she created could be seen everywhere on the ground, but it didn't hurt Hippo Hanyu in the slightest.

Hippo Hanyu laughed, seemingly ignoring Tsunade's angry fist, and said, "I didn't expect that in just a few years, Tsunade-sama has regressed so much. ”

Hippo Hanyu's reminder made Tsunade gradually calm down, and although the degree of the shot was much slower than just now, the power was much greater. Despite this, the advantage of Hippo Hanyu is becoming more and more obvious, because no matter how Tsunade attacks, Hippo Hanyu can always leave the ground in an instant before her punch arrives.

Although it's a little shameless to always dodge, even Tsunade has to admit that the current Hippo Hanyu is no longer something she can defeat. Thinking of the competition N years ago, to the death battle in Kikyo City, and then to today's competition. She almost watched Hanyu the hippo grow into a generation of masters. Compared with the three generations and Jiraiya, Tsunade has a more intuitive understanding of the strength of the hippo Hanyu.

Almost ruined a large part of the forest, Tsunade stopped, obviously tired, the sweat formed by the strenuous exercise, soaked the bangs in front of the forehead, she had not exercised for a long time, panting, looking no different from ordinary people.

Tsunade put his hands on his thighs, bent over, took a deep breath, and then suddenly raised his head, looked at Hippo Hanyu and laughed, seeing that Hippo Hanyu and Shizune were inexplicable.

Where Hippo Hanyu was standing, he could just see Tsunade's violently shaking chest, and although he was very reluctant, he quickly looked away. Seeing that Tsunade's brow, which had not been stretched for a long time, finally flattened, he also laughed, but compared to Tsunade, his laughter was much more subtle.

"It's been a long time since I've had such a good fight." Tsunade straightened up, glanced at Shizune from afar, and said, "Come with me!" ”

"Hmm!" Hippo Hanyu nodded.

"You're getting better." Tsunade praised.

"Maybe!" Hanyu the hippo glanced up at the moon, and a puffy cloud was blown by the wind and drifted under the crescent moon.

"Huh?" Tsunade was puzzled.

"It's that you're getting weaker and weaker, and since the battle of Kikyo City, you've lost the greatest ninja of a ninja - murderous intent." Hippo Hanyu said lightly, this is a fact, he can clearly feel that Tsunade is full of hesitation and hesitation even in a rage, her fist is full of hesitation and hesitation, compared to the previous courage and determination, it is too far behind.

"Hehe", Tsunade actually laughed, "It's not strange, seeing you all grow so big, I know that I am old, and now I just want to live an easy life." ”

Hippo Hanyu paused, he was savoring the meaning of Tsunade's words.

"Actually, you're not the same as Zilai, you're not a prodigal son like him, so no matter how you pretend, it's not like it!" Tsunade walked in front of her, and suddenly turned around and smiled sweetly at Hippo Hanyu, revealing her mature and charming style, and looking straight at Hippo Hanyu's eyes.

"You see that?" Tsunade is really Tsunade! He originally wanted to deliberately anger her and see Tsunade's reaction, but it turned out that he was being teased.

"Hmph, don't forget, you kid I grew up watching, how can I not know what you think in your heart?" Tsunade shook his head lightly and squeezed his eyes at Hippo Hanyu.

"Uh-", Hippo Hanyu smiled bitterly, indeed, Tsunade was the person who knew him the most besides his mother. There are some things, no matter how much you hide them, you can't escape the keen feeling of a woman.

"And you're still so angry?" Hippo Hanyu was a little dissatisfied: "And it also destroyed other people's hotels." ”

"Angry? If I'm not angry at all, you're going to be angry. I'm also taking care of you who came all the way! Tsunade clasped his hands over his chest and said proudly, "As for the inn, you are the culprit, and it is not my turn to bear this responsibility." What's more, even if I want to, I don't have the money! ”

Hippo Hanyu was choked again, Tsunade's words were enough to be single, it seemed that he was going to eat him. But after thinking about it, Hippo Hanyu showed the loophole in Tsunade's words, and the anger in the hotel was definitely not fake, she should have figured it out after arriving in this wood! Now she pretends to know everything about herself, it seems that she also wants to save face and not give in!

It's really in line with her character! Hippo Han put on his glasses and smiled with relief. So far, in this contest between the two, they have won and lost, and it has been a draw.

"In the past few years, I have traveled outside, seen a lot, and figured out a lot of things." Tsunade suddenly sighed.

Hippo Hanyu immediately listened attentively, he knew that he had entered the topic, "For example? ”

"You grow up, I grow old." Tsunade smiled, in fact, as a woman, she was very reluctant to mention age, but to Hippo Hanyu, she had to emphasize this issue.

"You've grown up, so you've started to think about the attribution of feelings, and I'm getting older, so old that I don't want to talk about feelings anymore." Tsunade smiled and laughed at himself.

Hippo Hanyu could hear Tsunade say something insincere, but he still listened quietly.

"And, when you grow up, you're no longer the diligent and serious Yoshino Shota with a rigorous attitude, although there are some overlapping things in you, but that feeling is completely different, so, the story of Yoshino Shota, let him exist as a legend!" Tsunade continued, in a slow, low tone, clearly well thought-out.

The meaning of this sentence, Hippo Hanyu understood, and it seems that Tsunade has been able to separate him from Yoshino Shota. How so? Yoshino Shota is a hippo Hanyu, but not exactly a hippo Hanyu, but an ordinary young man who struggles for survival, a ninja who hides most of his feelings and immerses himself in killing.

When the layer of disguise is removed, after the trinity of Hippo Hanyu, he is a real person who is complete from body to consciousness, and he is the person who is closer to the real him. But such a complete person is no longer the original Yoshino Shota that Tsunade admires immensely.

"Maybe you're right, Shota Yoshino is just a small episode in our lives, and I'm different from him after all." Hippo Hanyu sighed, unconsciously, he has changed a lot in this world.

"And what about the real you? Are you sure you really like me, or is the shadow lurking in your heart affecting your judgment? Tsunade actually asked such a direct question, and it seemed that she really saw through it.

"Uh-" Hippo Hanyu looked at Tsunade in a daze.

"Hehe, didn't you come to me just to find an answer?" Tsunade turned around, turned his back to him, and said quietly, "Maybe the answer has always been in your heart." ”

"Yes! To understand other people's feelings, you must first understand your own feelings. Hippo Hanyu smiled, with a bit of bitterness in his smile.

"If only you could understand! By the way, I heard that you have quit your job as a teacher at Konoha School, and you have been out there for so long, okay? Tsunade took the initiative to change the subject.

"Hehe, just like you, just wandering around outside." Hippo Hanyu smiled.

"Really?" Tsunade forced his gaze at Hippo Hanyu and said sarcastically, "That's not right! I've heard that the Craftsman Country has stolen a number of sharp weapons made for the Land Country, and many of them are forbearance. For this reason, the land country almost sent troops to attack the craftsman country. Now there are two million bounties from the land of earth and the land of craftsmen. ”

"What's the matter with me?" Hippo Hanyu blinked innocently, of course he was clear about this matter, but in front of Tsunade, he would definitely not admit it.

"Yes! None of your business. Tsunade smiled, glanced at Hanyu the hippopotamus, and changed the topic very tacitly.
