MSIN: Chapter 30 [Shout out Oluwatimileyin]
"You're lucky, Kushina." Tsunade said to Kushina. As a powerful ninja, finding a suitable disciple was indeed a fortunate thing. This kind of fortune was like the Third Hokage to the First and Second, the Sannin to the Third Hokage, and Minato Namikaze to Jiraiya...
Then Tsunade turned to Haori and said, "Kid, don't die on the battlefield."
Haori was instantly annoyed. She said it as if she wanted him to die on the battlefield.
But he had to answer.
"Yes, Tsunade-sama."
"You were hurt yesterday?"
"Uh, yes."
"Where? Show me."
Haori extended his injured palm as Tsunade had instructed. Tsunade didn't do anything. A layer of emerald green chakra gathered on her palm, and then she reached out and grasped Haori's palm.
Haori immediately felt his wound start to itch and tingle. This was a sign that the wound was healing further.
"It's healing up nicely," Tsunade said as she released Haori's palm.
After Haori pulled back his hand, he curiously used his other hand to unwrap the bandage. The deep wound, visible to the bone, had already healed to the point of just a faint scar.
This medical ninjutsu was incredible. It was unscientific! It didn't fit with the theme of this book!
Tsunade didn't pay any more attention to Haori. Then she turned to Kushina and said, "Kushina, since you've come here, just stay here and help me with some daily tasks. There are so many messy things happening on the front lines. I can't stand it anymore. You can at least help me share the burden. Anyway, going back to Konoha is no different than going back to a cage."
"Really? I can stay here? Tsunade-sensei?" After waiting for Tsunade to nod, Kushina almost jumped for joy.
"Great!"
It was like having a pillow delivered when you were sleepy. Kushina was racking her brains trying to find an excuse to stay here and hang around on the front lines, but Tsunade took the initiative to mention it. How could she not agree?
"Tsunade-sama, that's impossible. According to the Hokage-sama's orders, the Nine-Tailed Jinchūriki must return to Konoha immediately. This is our mission!"
The two ANBU ninjas who had been waiting outside Tsunade's tent heard this. They immediately rushed into the tent. They couldn't allow Kushina to stay here, otherwise, they would face the most severe punishment when they returned to Konoha!
Tsunade's expression instantly fell. She suddenly crossed the distance of more than ten meters and appeared in front of the ANBU ninjas. She was about to scold the guy, but someone was faster than her!
Someone faster than Tsunade was Haori, who was enveloped in lightning. He pointed his fingers like a blade, and Chidori pierced into one of the tent poles behind the ANBU ninja who had spoken, close to his face!
This was probably the first time Haori had acted without reservation and with full force. So, this was the fastest he had ever moved in his life. He was faster than when he attacked the Sunagakure ninjas last night, and even faster than when he dodged Tsunade's attack just now.
The lightning cut through part of the ANBU ninja's mask, leaving a blood mark on his face!
Haori's hand, just two inches lower, would have cut the ANBU ninja's neck. One inch to the left, and it would have pierced his skull in a more brutal way…
The unfortunate ANBU ninja didn't expect to be attacked by his own people. He didn't have time to react.
Haori's reaction shocked everyone. If he had aimed slightly off, the ANBU ninja would have been killed by this lightning release jutsu.
Could it be that Kushina's disciple was a killer?
But Tsunade and Kushina quickly saw Haori's action, so they immediately relaxed. Haori was only trying to intimidate. He only cut through the ANBU ninja's mask and scraped his face.
"I remember you. ANBU squad captain, code name Mole."
Haori's voice was cold. Although he didn't hurt this ninja, the threat in his tone was far more serious than the physical harm!
ANBU weren't only cruel to their enemies. Once they received an order, they wouldn't hesitate to attack even ninjas from their own village. That's why they hid their identities. Once their true identities were exposed, they could face not only pursuit by enemy ninjas, but also attacks from some of their own ninjas.
Who told them to do all the dirty work? Once their identities were exposed, ninjas from Konoha who had a grudge against the ANBU would naturally attack them.
ANBU were more than just ninjas. When they weren't on missions, they needed to have an official identity to operate. Once their identities were revealed, they either had to live in darkness forever, or they would be killed.
So, why were Haori and Tsunade so furious?
It wasn't because these two ANBU ninjas had ignored authority and directly barged into the tent.
It was because this idiot had called Kushina the Nine-Tailed Jinchūriki. Whether or not the word had a hint of contempt aside, where were they? This was the Konoha front line!
Perhaps Tsunade's tent was under enemy surveillance. Perhaps just as the ANBU ninja said those words, an enemy spy was outside the tent. Perhaps, within these few minutes, the news of the Nine-Tailed Jinchūriki being on the Konoha front line was already being conveyed.
What did this mean? Anyone with a brain would understand immediately.
Once the enemy found out about this news, they would spare no effort to immediately pressure it. No matter how many ninjas died, as long as they could eliminate the Jinchūriki, it would be a huge gain.
Because the Tailed Beasts were a major factor in the mutual deterrence and power balance between ninja villages. No ninja village could afford to lose a Tailed Beast, especially now, when the Shinobi World War had reached this point. It could be that losing a Tailed Beast and its Jinchūriki would cause a series of collapses, which would in turn affect the entire course of the war.
At this time, Haori had already retracted his arm, but the ANBU ninja's face, hidden under the mask, was already sweating profusely. This wasn't because he was scared by Haori, but because he realized what he had just said and what the consequences would be.
This kind of low-level mistake, a slip of the tongue. No matter what, his ANBU career would be over after this mission was completed.
Tsunade's face was still completely black. She walked up to the ANBU, gritted her teeth and said word by word into his ear: "Is the ANBU's mouth so loose now? If there were enemy spies around my tent, and it led to a leak of Kushina's information, do you know what the consequences would be? If that actually happened, all of you who are on this mission will die! Not a single one will survive!"
