Chapter 149 Tsunade, put aside your morals and get a good scolding if you catch her!
The bone dragon traversed the vast ocean, its wings slowly flapping beneath the clouds, propelling its massive body forward.
Sunlight filtered through the clouds, scattering shimmering golden rays across the sea, which were then broken up by the clouds into a hazy halo, like an unfinished ink painting.
Inside the dragon's belly room, the dim light from the fireplace warmed the space and made it peaceful.
Ye Cang had already fallen into a deep sleep after receiving treatment.
Physical injuries can be treated, but mental exhaustion can only be recovered by herself.
She fought with all her might in this battle.
From intercepting the summoned beasts of the Animal Path to dealing with the Asura Path, the light of the Blazing Escape Technique almost never went out.
Her performance has far exceeded Izumi's expectations.
At this moment, his aloof face softened a bit in his sleep.
She was no longer the ruthless and decisive scorching ninja on the battlefield, but an ordinary woman who had let down all her guard.
However, she would occasionally furrow her brow slightly, her eyebrows forming a small knot, clearly indicating that her dream was not peaceful.
He withdrew his gaze, and the three-tomoe Sharingan in his left eye rotated slightly, extending his perception into the Kamui dimension.
In that twilight-shrouded alternate dimension, Haku and Kimimaro sat side by side on the edge of a high platform in the ancient kingdom of Loulan, with skeletal puppets being busily repaired beneath their feet.
Kimimaro gazed at the white figures, his gaze gleaming as if deep in thought, seemingly pondering the similarities and differences between the structure of these skeletons and his own bone marrow.
Although Haku was somewhat afraid of these moving skeletons, every time he tried to look away, he would see Kimimaro's calm and composed demeanor and force himself to sit back down.
Her little face was tense, trying hard not to show any fear.
Izumi withdrew his senses, a slight smile playing on his lips. These two children still needed time to adjust.
He turned to look at the chakra-based sandbox virtual 3D map, and realized that he had achieved his goal for this trip to the Land of Water.
Bai and Kimimaro accepted them. The two children still need some time to adapt, and Kimimaro's bloodline disease will be treated later.
Orochimaru's transaction was completed; the scroll and sample were stored in the sealed space, to be sorted out slowly upon returning to the Land of Snow.
The meeting with Mei Terumi went smoothly, and I even saw my teacher, Ao.
Although the manner and timing of the meeting were not ideal, at least some things were said.
Everything seemed to be going according to plan.
But the unexpected turn of events was quite surprising.
Obito and Nagato actually took action themselves, and they appeared right after he finished his deal with Orochimaru and parted ways with him.
I wonder how Black Zetsu got the information. Undetectable surveillance is really troublesome.
Especially that so-called spore technique, which cannot be detected without Yin-Yang Escape, is too Yin.
The battle ultimately ended with Nagato taking the initiative to finish it off.
But the end of this battle was less about determining a winner and less about both sides having reservations.
Nagato seemed to have some reservations; he appeared to have sensed something, so he took the initiative to stop the battle.
As for Izumi himself, he couldn't use Wood Release, hadn't awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, and only scratched the surface of his Immortal Clan talent.
Neither side fully unleashed their strength, resulting in a battle that started strong but ended weakly.
But it doesn't matter.
Izumikawa snapped out of his reverie and turned his gaze to the clouds outside the window.
The Akatsuki's business is to collect the Tailed Beasts and carry out the Eye of the Moon Plan.
What he needs is for the full power of the Divine Tree to manifest, and the Akatsuki organization is helping him do that.
Regardless of Nagato and Obito's motives, their actions objectively paved the way for him.
He was pleased with this outcome.
What truly moved him was the direction Kirigakure was heading.
Izumikawa closed his eyes, and the face of Yagura Karatachi appeared in his mind.
He seemed to blame Obito for all the things that happened in the past in Kirigakure.
Bloodline purges, internal strife, mass deaths of members of the Dark Guard, and villagers living in fear.
However, in the original history, the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, was controlled by the Sharingan, which happened after Itachi Uchiha defected from Konoha.
Itachi joined the Akatsuki organization and severely injured the Three-Tails Jinchuriki while on a mission in the Land of Water. Obito and Nagato took advantage of the situation and somehow turned Yagura into a puppet.
The purge of the bloodline clans, and the dark period when bloodline ninjas were feared and hated by everyone in the Land of Water, had already begun long before Yagura was controlled.
That was a chronic problem of Kirigakure itself, a lingering poison of the Blood Mist Village, and the bitter fruit sown by the early policies of the Third and Fourth Mizukage.
Obito merely made use of this mess, rather than creating it.
But now, Yagura's control has been brought forward, and it's hard to say whether that's a good thing or a bad thing.
Oh well, it doesn't matter anyway. There's not much to be nostalgic about. I'll just tell Mei Terumi when the time comes.
Izumikawa opened his eyes. The clouds outside the window were thinning, and the coastline of the Snow Country was already faintly visible.
In Amegakure, the sky is always shrouded in dark clouds, and the rain drizzles on and on without ever stopping.
Raindrops tapped on the top of the steel tower, making a fine, monotonous sound.
Rainwater meanders down the pipe walls, flows into the stagnant water on the ground, and then into the crisscrossing ditches.
Inside the tower, above the passageway, the Human Path stood there, his Rinnegan silently watching the Rain Village.
Xiao Nan stood slightly behind him, her gaze fixed on Renjiandao's profile, waiting quietly.
Nagato, through the Human Path, recounted events that occurred far away in Kirigakure.
His battle with Taketori Izumi, the destruction of the Preta Path, Pain's temporary decision to halt the fight, and Obito's subsequent arrangements to control the Fourth Mizukage.
Each sentence is concise and clear, without unnecessary embellishment or emotional fluctuations, as if narrating something unrelated to oneself.
-
Xiao Nan listened quietly, her face showing little expression.
"Your choice is right." After the Human Dao finished speaking, she finally spoke.
She believed that Nagato's final decision to stop was absolutely correct.
"The Akatsuki organization is still in the accumulation phase. Whether it is manpower, funds or intelligence network, it has not yet reached the level to directly confront the five major powers."
"At this time, there is no benefit in fighting an opponent that is too powerful; it will only expose your methods and intelligence."
She paused for a moment, gazing down at the Rain Village, recalling how the mysterious masked man had reacted when he approached them.
"Moreover, we must also be wary of that mysterious masked man." Her tone held a hint of vigilance. "Clearly, that guy knows about Izumi Taketori's strength."
"He even specifically reminded you to use multiple Paynes. Judging from the results, his advice was accurate, but what was the purpose?"
Konan's eyes flickered slightly as the image of Obito's face, forever hidden behind the vortex mask, surfaced in her mind.
"Does he really just want to recruit Taketori Izumi, or does he have other motives?"
"This so-called recruitment is probably not for such a simple purpose," Xiao Nan continued, lowering her voice even further. "That guy's idea is to use your power to deal with the other party."
"If Taketori Izumi refuses, a battle will break out between the two sides; if Taketori Izumi agrees, he can also observe the other party's strength in secret."
"No matter the outcome, he won't lose out."
At this point, Xiao Nan's expression turned serious.
"Although we don't know why he has such a purpose, we cannot completely follow his intentions. Once we are led by him, the Akatsuki will gradually become his tool."
Human Dao nodded slightly, a hint of resonance flashing in his eyes of Samsara.
Nagato's consciousness, behind this puppet body, agreed with Konan's judgment.
"I think so too," Nagato said through the Human Path. "The more that guy wants to take down the other person, the more suspicious it is."
"I won't follow his script completely, so I chose to stop."
Rain dripped down the eaves, making a crisp, pattering sound, like some kind of urging.
"And the only thing I can think of is—" The Human Path's Rinnegan narrowed slightly, "Taketori Izumi has somehow obtained another three-tomoe Sharingan."
"At first I thought he took it from Konoha, but then I thought about it and there was no news from Konoha that the Sharingan had been stolen."
Nagato's voice held a hint of deep thought, a careful verification followed by a bold guess.
"I'm afraid that Sharingan, along with the opponent's powerful physique and Shikotsumyaku, are what that guy's real targets."
Xiao Nan remained silent for a moment, then looked at Zi Guang and Ren Jiandao.
"So, we need to keep our distance until that guy reveals his true intentions," she said firmly. "It's okay to use him, but don't let him use you."
Unfortunately, despite their best efforts to guard against Obito, they were still unable to ascertain his true purpose due to insufficient information and limited perspective.
However, it is enough that they have that heart and that idea.
Konoha Village, Hokage Building.
After failing to find Izumi Taketori, Tsunade traveled to several cities but still found no clues.
Despite her pent-up anger, she couldn't hold back any longer and chose to return to the village.
After her return, the news spread like wildfire throughout the entire village in just half a day.
On the streets and alleys, whether they were ninjas or ordinary people, their faces were filled with a long-lost sense of excitement.
One of the legendary Sannin, the granddaughter of the First Hokage, Tsunade, who was once as famous as Jiraiya and Orochimaru, has returned.
For this village, which had suffered the calamity of the Nine-Tailed Fox and was filled with fear, nothing could be more reassuring than this.
Inside the tavern, people raised their glasses in celebration, while the young ninjas on the training grounds chattered amongst themselves.
Even the old lady selling dumplings on the street said with a smile, "Lady Tsunade is back! That's great!"
The entire Leaf Village seemed to have been injected with a powerful stimulant, and even the air was filled with a light and cheerful atmosphere.
However, the atmosphere was completely different in the offices deep inside the Hokage Building.
The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, sat behind his desk, oblivious to the fact that his pipe had been extinguished for quite some time.
Danzo, who was opposite him, was leaning on a cane, his one eye slightly narrowed, and the bandages on his face seemed to have tightened a bit.
Tsunade, standing before them, stood with her hands on her hips, her face ashen, like a volcano about to erupt.
"You two old geezers, tell me, what were you doing while I was held captive for the past six months?" Tsunade's voice wasn't loud, but it carried a chilling sense of oppression.
The Third Hokage opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Tsunade interrupted him.
"Jiraiya is running around all over the world, and you guys just don't stop him."
"But what about Root? What about the Dark Division? Are all those intelligence networks just for show?"
"How long have I been locked up? More than half a year! And you haven't even found a trace of me!"
Her voice rose a few decibels, and she slammed her hand on the table, causing the documents on the table to bounce and even spilling water from the teacup.
To vent her anger, she brought up all the old grievances from the past, just to get a good kick out of it.
The Third Hokage gave a wry smile, wanting to explain, but Tsunade glared at him, shutting him up. "Old man, don't say anything. I know what kind of person you are; you're probably just trying to smooth things over and wait for things to pass by themselves, right?"
The third generation's lips twitched, and he silently swallowed back the words that were about to come out.
Tsunade's gaze shifted to Danzo, and the anger in her eyes suddenly intensified. "And you, Danzo."
"Don't think that just because you're wearing bandages and using a cane to pretend to be an old person, I won't scold you."
"Where are your elite members from the core? Didn't you say your subordinates were unparalleled?"
"Where were they when I was arrested? Where were they when I was used as a guinea pig?"
"On the contrary, it was when I later found the place where you had been imprisoned that you went there by following the smell."
A shadowy glint flashed in Danzo's single eye, and his lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but Tsunade gave him no chance.
"Don't tell me about insufficient intelligence at the time" or "the timing wasn't right."
""
"When have you, Danzo, ever considered the timing of your actions? If you had any ambition, you would have turned the Land of Rivers upside down in the very first week after I was captured!"
"You're not moving because you think you won't care if I, one of the 'Three Ninjas,' die, and that this will make room for you, right?"
Upon hearing this, Danzo's face turned completely dark.
His cane slammed heavily on the ground with a dull thud, and the shadow in his single eye almost overflowed its socket.
But Tsunade showed no sign of backing down. Instead, she took a step forward and looked down at the old man who was half a head shorter than her.
"What? You're not convinced? Come and hit me then." Tsunade brought her face closer. "Go ahead and hit me! After you're done, you can tell the whole village that you beat up the First Hokage's granddaughter. How impressive!"
Danzo's fists clenched so tightly they cracked, and his cheeks were taut.
He took a deep breath, then another, and finally squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth: "I'll just assume you've been wronged and won't hold it against you."
"Feeling wronged? You dare use that word?" Tsunade's tone became even sharper. "I was locked up for half a year, and now you're giving me attitude?"
"Danzo, do you think you're bigger than the Hokage?"
The Third Hokage finally coughed, unable to hold back any longer: "Tsunade, that's enough."
A moment of silence fell over the room. Tsunade glanced at the Third Hokage, snorted coldly, and looked away, finally tossing Danzo a sentence: "Get lost, just looking at you annoys me."
Danzo slammed his cane on the ground, then turned and walked away.
Only after his footsteps disappeared at the end of the corridor did Tsunade spit out a curse.
He plopped down in the chair next to him, crossed his legs, picked up the third-generation teacup, and drank it all in one gulp.
"The water's gone cold." She frowned in disgust and casually placed the cup on the table.
The Third Hokage silently picked up the teapot, refilled his own teacup, and poured another cup for Tsunade.
The master and disciple remained silent for a moment. The setting sun outside the window dyed the roof of Konoha a dark red, and laughter could be faintly heard in the distance.
"You've finished your tirade," the Third Hokage said slowly, "What are your plans now?"
Tsunade picked up the freshly poured tea, blew on it to cool it down, and did not answer immediately.
Her gaze fell on the village bathed in the setting sun outside the window, a complex emotion that was hard to detect flashing in her eyes.
"Stay here first and see how things go." She took a sip of tea. "Kakashi has an eye problem, I need to keep an eye on him, and Shizune too, her health needs some care."
The Third Hokage nodded without pressing further. He knew Tsunade had more to say and that she wouldn't easily reveal her entire plan.
But as long as she is willing to stay in Konoha, that is an attitude.
"What about Danzo over there—" the Third Hokage asked tentatively.
"Tell him to get lost." Tsunade put down her teacup, her tone cold. "If I see him again, I'll yell at him again."
The three generations smiled wryly and said nothing more.
But Tsunade added, "However, I'll leave as soon as I'm done. I won't stay here for long, and don't mention that matter to me."
"I will never become Hokage. Even if I die, even if I die outside, I will never become the Fifth Hokage."
