Chapter 91 Tsunade Arrives
"Wood Release: Four Pillars Technique!"
boom-
The ground trembled, and a small wooden building rose up in a secluded corner of the camp. The building was not very big, but it looked very elegant.
"Wow! That's amazing! Wood Release has such a practical ninjutsu?"
Nawaki's mouth dropped open in excitement, and Mikoto looked like she'd learned something new.
"As the grandson of the First Hokage, shouldn't you at least know a little about it? Wood Release is very practical."
Minato said, looking at Shirokumo Fuuta, who was standing to the side with a look of amazement: "Senior, why don't you invite your teammates to come inside and rest as well?"
""
"Oh? Then I'll have to bother you!"
Shirokumo Fuuta's face lit up with joy. Although he was a little embarrassed, the continuous rain in the Land of Rain was really unbearable.
Minato and his two companions entered the room first. In the center of the room was a brick stove with a stone flue directly above it.
Considering this was a battlefield, Minato did not build tatami mats; the room remained a mud floor.
He casually planted some potatoes and corn, then grew a pile of firewood. Minato lit the stove, and to the amazement of Nawaki and Mikoto, he took out a kettle and teacups, and even made a few rocking chairs.
Nawaki glanced out the window: "That's right, this is a battlefield? Why do I feel like I'm on vacation?"
"I feel like after teaming up with Minato, I can no longer accept the conditions for teaming up with anyone else."
Mikoto sat down in the rocking chair next to Minato and let out a satisfied sigh.
Minato, who was tending to the charcoal fire, gave Mikoto a strange look upon hearing this.
For some reason, the other person's words gave him a strange sense of déjà vu.
"Um, Minato-kun?"
Mikoto said somewhat shyly, "Could I take my shoes off a little? It's been raining outside, and my shoes are all wet and uncomfortable—"
"Okay, go ahead and take it off, it's fine."
Minato nodded and stepped aside slightly so that Mikoto could heat her feet.
Seeing this, Rope Tree plopped down on the other side of the water gate: "Then I'll take one too."
Before Nawaki could finish speaking, Minato shook his head: "You can't do it."
Why?
Nawaki stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that Minato would actually refuse him.
"The boy's feet look disgusting."
Minato said calmly, "Stay away from my roasted potatoes."
Nawaki was shocked: "He actually said such discriminatory things with such a calm expression!"
Mikoto's pretty face flushed slightly, but she still gently kicked off her shoes. Her fair, bare feet, covered in a little mud and glistening with moisture, carefully approached the stove.
Minato glanced at her subconsciously, and Mikoto's face immediately turned even redder. Her ten toes curled up nervously, making her look quite adorable.
"Um, my feet don't smell," she quickly declared.
"It's okay."
Seeing Mikoto's flustered explanation, a mischievous glint flashed in Minato's eyes: "Even if it stinks, no one will blame you."
Sensing the mischievousness in Minato's tone, Mikoto's cheeks puffed out slightly: "Ugh—Minato-kun is so mean!"
"Tsk!"
Seeing their expressions, Nawaki gave them a look like an old man using his phone on the subway: "How about I go outside and get some rain?"
He sensed that the atmosphere between the two was slightly ambiguous.
This makes him seem superfluous!
Fortunately, this strange atmosphere didn't last long. With the arrival of Bai Yunfeng and his group, the room became more lively, dispelling the previous odd atmosphere.
It wasn't until sunset that the support troops finally arrived at the front line, and only then did everyone leave the room.
"Hmm? Sister?"
Upon seeing that familiar figure in the crowd, Rope Tree quickly waved, "Sister, over here!"
From the crowd, Tsunade looked up and saw the lively Nawaki and Minato with a smile in his eyes. A smile appeared on her face.
She then walked through the crowd and quickly came to the three people. Behind her were two familiar figures, Jiraiya and Orochimaru.
"teacher."
Shuimen asked gently, "Why did you come to the front lines?"
"Of course it's for you!"
Tsunade smiled and raised her hand to rub Minato's head. As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's expressions suddenly became quite interesting.
Orochimaru's eyes flashed with surprise, as if he hadn't expected Tsunade to be so courageous!
Jiraiya's mouth dropped open in shock. Just as he was about to say something, Tsunade's voice rang out again.
"We're running out of ingredients to prepare the antidote. Only your Wood Release bloodline limit can guarantee the supply."
Of course, this is just one of many reasons.
Tsunade's fingertips brushed across Minato's cheek seemingly unintentionally, a sly glint in his eyes: "So you might be very busy for a while."
"Phew—that scared me to death."
Upon hearing this, Jiraiya breathed a sigh of relief.
"hehe--"
Orochimaru glanced at Jiraiya and smiled enigmatically.
"teacher!"
Upon seeing Orochimaru, Mikoto stepped forward and greeted him respectfully.
"Huh? Orochimaru, you've taken on a disciple? And such a beautiful girl at that? So, I'm the only one who hasn't taken on a disciple yet?"
Jiraiya was somewhat surprised to hear Mikoto's way of addressing Orochimaru.
"We must always pass on what we have learned."
Orochimaru said calmly, "If you're envious, you can take on a disciple yourself."
"What do I have to envy? The Great Toad Sage once prophesied that my disciple would be the prophesied child who would save the ninja world!"
""
Jiraiya looked smug, then turned to Nawaki: "So, Nawaki? Want to become my apprentice? I think you have a lot of potential in that area!"
"No, I want to become Orochimaru's apprentice!"
Nawaki shook his head, looking longingly at Orochimaru: "Big Brother Orochimaru."
"Okay, I'll take it."
Orochimaru glanced at Jiraiya, who was jumping up and down in anger, and chuckled softly.
"Very good!"
When Orochimaru agreed to take him as a disciple, Nawaki cheered.
"Damn it!" Jiraiya's face darkened. "What exactly is it about Orochimaru that I'm inferior to?"
"Probably because he's sleazy?"
Tsunade glanced at him and teased, "I thought you'd made some progress since you came back from Mount Myōboku, but you're still so impatient. Did you use training as an excuse to go somewhere and spy on others?"
Jiraiya quickly waved his hands: "Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense! Ever since Minato said that to me, I haven't done anything like that again!"
"real?"
Not only Tsunade, but even Orochimaru cast a questioning glance at Jiraiya.
"real----"
Jiraiya paused, his face flushed, and he turned his head away somewhat guiltily: "—I go to brothels now."
Everyone: "————"
That works too. Fair trade is better than spying.
No longer dwelling on Jiraiya's spying, Minato looked at Orochimaru: "Orochimaru-senpai, why are you on the front lines too? Is Root alright?"
"To be honest, Minato-kun, I've come to see you too."
Orochimaru chuckled softly, "I can't go into the details here, but your squad will be assigned to my command from now on, and you won't need to go back to the outpost."
Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Rope Tree's eyes!
Military achievements!
The war merits have arrived!
