Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Tsunade's Killing Spree
By the way, I'm planning to send someone to inform the Third Hokage in Konoha about the masked man using the Advent of a World of Flowering Trees technique."
Hearing Mei Terumi say this, Shishou was taken aback. He pinched her cheek and laughed:
"In that case, Konoha will go crazy."
If Konoha knew someone could use the Advent of a World of Flowering Trees, they would go mad trying to find that person.
In Shishou's view, at least Danzo would definitely go insane.
This way, Kirigakure could hide behind Konoha and watch the situation unfold.
"Haha, actually, even if I don't say anything, they will find out through their spies."
"Don't underestimate Konoha's determination in this matter."
"If Kirigakure tries to block their investigation, Konoha will definitely retaliate."
"So, I might as well make a gesture of goodwill and earn Konoha's friendship."
Mei Terumi raised her chin proudly.
In truth, she had another reason she didn't mention.
That was the fact that Shishou could use Wood Release and Flying Thunder God, indicating he had a deep connection with Konoha.
This was the main reason she wanted to establish good relations with Konoha.
"Aren't you worried Tsunade will go back and tell the Third Hokage the truth?"
Shishou smiled, pointing out a potential flaw in her plan.
"Well... she hasn't returned to Konoha in a long time, right?"
Mei Terumi seemed to have just thought of this and looked a bit helpless. She then continued:
"Forget it, I'll just tell the Third Hokage that someone outside Kirigakure used the Advent of a World of Flowering Trees."
"Let him figure out the rest himself!"
"As long as I prevent Konoha's information from reaching Kirigakure, everything will be fine."
Shishou could only smile at this.
He had no intention of getting involved in the affairs between the Five Great Ninja Villages.
Afterward, Shishou and Mei Terumi discussed matters related to the seafood trading company and the port.
It wasn't until noon, after having lunch with Mei Terumi, that Shishou returned to the Konoha Ninja Academy.
After confirming that his insect clone could maintain itself for a while and hadn't been discovered, Shishou used the Flying Thunder God to head to the Land of Demons.
...
The Priestess' palace in the Land of Demons.
After three days of continuous treatment from Uzumaki Eri, Shizune had fully recovered and looked more energetic than before.
She was currently playing games with Karin and Shion.
Priestess Miroku was in the capital city of the Land of Demons, conducting her monthly blessing rituals, and was not at the palace.
Uzumaki Eri had also gone as an assistant.
Therefore, Shizune was taking care of Karin and Shion.
"Karin, Shion, where is your mother?"
Shishou approached the three and asked.
"Mom..."
Just as Shion was about to speak, Karin covered her mouth.
Then, Karin extended her small hand to Shishou:
"I want pocket money."
Her meaning was clear.
If you want to know where my mother is, you have to pay.
Seeing Karin like this, Shion quickly extended her hand as well.
"I want some too."
Due to their rigorous training in sealing techniques, their mother gave them very little pocket money each month.
Shizune, unaware of their relationship, remained silent.
Wow, Karin's guts are huge, huh.
Daring to extort money from me.
Seeing the two little girls like this, Shishou was speechless.
This bad behavior definitely couldn't be encouraged!
Thinking this, Shishou said:
"If you tell me, I'll take you to the capital city of the Land of Fire to play when I have time!"
"Really?"
Karin and Shion exclaimed in surprise, their eyes sparkling.
They had never been to the capital city of the Land of Fire.
"Of course."
Shishou nodded.
After all, whether or not he had time was up to him.
Hearing Shishou's words, Shizune pursed her lips.
She suspected Shishou's "when I have time" might mean a very long time later.
She had been tricked like this when she was a child.
After successfully obtaining information about Priestess Miroku and Uzumaki Eri from Karin and Shion, Shishou said to Shizune:
"Take me to Tsunade."
"Okay."
Along the way, Shizune occasionally glanced at Shishou.
Firstly, she was shocked that Shishou looked younger than her.
Secondly, she had vivid memories of Shishou manipulating her heart.
So Shizune was both curious and fearful of him.
Noticing Shizune's behavior, Shishou asked:
"What is Tsunade doing now?"
"Lady Tsunade is in the kitchen."
"The kitchen?"
Shishou was puzzled. Could Tsunade be someone who enjoys cooking?
She didn't seem like the type who could cook.
"Yes, Lady Tsunade is trying to overcome her hemophobia by slaughtering chickens."
Slaughtering chickens?
Tsunade, I didn't know you were into that!
Upon reaching the kitchen, Shishou saw several beheaded chickens in a miserable state.
Tsunade, covered in blood, was holding a small black chicken, ready to chop it with a knife.
She appeared quite proficient, seemingly having almost overcome her hemophobia.
Tsunade was clearly traumatized by Shizune's near-death experience.
On the third day after Shizune was severely injured, she had managed to overcome her hemophobia.
Wow, this woman is really something else.
So cool, so attractive!
Click!
Shishou took out a camera from his scroll and snapped a picture of Tsunade slaughtering chickens.
"Here, this is for you."
"This is proof of Tsunade's efforts for you."
"Let's call it 'Tsunade's Killing Spree'."
Shishou handed the photo to Shizune, casually saying.
"Mm."
Shizune smiled sweetly, took the photo, and ignored his last comment.
She intended to keep this photo as a memento.
"Tch, you made me look awful."
Tsunade put down the butcher knife, walked over, and grabbed the photo from Shizune, intending to tear it up.
She couldn't stand mushy things like this.
"Ah, Lady Tsunade, don't tear it..."
Shizune snatched the photo back and ran away.
"Go clean up."
"I'll wait for you in the hall."
Seeing Shizune run away, leaving space for the two to talk, Shishou looked at Tsunade's blood-stained appearance with some disdain.
Although the blood combined with her large assets gave her a certain bloody beauty, the smell was unpleasant.
"Mm."
Tsunade wiped the blood from her chest and left the kitchen.
The blood all over her body indeed made her uncomfortable.
Shishou: "..."
Recalling the recent sight of 'bloody jade peaks,' Shishou subconsciously swallowed.
What old veteran could resist such a test?
Half an hour later.
In the palace hall.
Shishou saw Tsunade, now changed into fresh clothes.
Her freshly washed hair draped casually over her shoulders, giving her a disheveled beauty.
"Speak, what do you want to ask?"
Shishou asked first, looking at Tsunade.
Tsunade opened her mouth, unsure where to start.
After a moment of thought, she looked at Shishou's young face and frowned:
"Who exactly are you?"
"Why can you use Wood Release?"
Although Shishou looked like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, Tsunade didn't believe he was as young as he appeared.
As expected, Tsunade was most concerned about the Wood Release.
"How should I put it."
Shishou, seeing Tsunade's furrowed brow, propped his head on his hand, thinking aloud:
"First, I awakened the Wood Release on my own."
"Second, my Flying Thunder God was taught by the Fourth Hokage."
Upon hearing this, Tsunade's eyes lit up.
Someone who could awaken the Wood Release on their own could only be someone with the blood of the Senju clan.
Although the Senju clan had merged into Konoha village at Hashirama's insistence and no longer existed as a distinct entity,
Shishou being able to awaken Wood Release on his own could only mean one thing.
"Are you from Konoha?"
