Konoha.
night.
The stars are shining brightly and the evening breeze is gentle. Even in Konoha, which is in a perfect location in midsummer, it is not too hot.
Otherwise, a group of uniquely dressed ninjas, including Kakashi, would not wear masks or other thick decorations all year round.
The chirping of insects is heard one after another in the cemetery, and the fluorescent green fireflies are slowly flying in the air like lost elves.
Tsunade held two bouquets of white chrysanthemums, with sadness in her eyes, and walked along the tree-lined path to the cemetery with the help of the moonlight.
The cemetery covers a large area and is located in a forest adjacent to Konoha Village. Not far away is the address of the memorial monument.
Since leaving Konoha.
Tsunade has not returned to this sad place for a long time. Her friends, people she likes, and relatives are buried here...
Buried is her fragmented youth.
Tsunade looked at the neat rows of tombstones, and the kindness in her eyes could not be concealed on her face.
"Sorry, I haven't come back to see you for so long."
Tsunade muttered to herself and walked slowly into the cemetery.
Every time she passed a familiar tombstone, she felt a strange feeling.
It was as if they hadn't left yet, and those old friends who had been lying down for a long time appeared beside her in an invisible form, accompanying her quietly in this deserted night.
When passing by the tombstones of "Uchiha Obito" and "Nohara Rin", Tsunade found two bouquets of relatively fresh flowers placed in front of the two tombstones.
Judging from the wiltedness of the flowers.
It should be placed early in the morning.
Without thinking much, Tsunade came to the easternmost area of the cemetery and stood in front of a tombstone. She lowered her head to look at the epitaph on it, then squatted down, placed one of the flowers in front of the tombstone, and sighed:
"I have become Hokage. I hope that I can become the person you most longed to be."
A long moment of silence.
Tsunade slowly stood up and came to a tombstone on the other side. Her eyes gradually softened. She put down the second bouquet of flowers in her hand and sighed:
"Shengshu, my sister is back to see you. I wonder if you are doing well there and whether you have met your most admired grandpa."
】
After saying that, she was suddenly startled and turned to look at the woods behind her.
I saw a figure standing there.
For weekdays.
This is a very scary thing.
But Tsunade was here to wait for someone tonight, so she didn't feel any surprise about it.
The edge of the woods.
Bai Yu paced back and forth on the edge of a jungle, seeming to be looking for something. In fact, he was looking for the angle from which Obito watched Kakashi remember Obito and Lin.
After all, come to this world.
Bai Yu feels that every time he arrives at a place that appears in the original work, it is like finding a special easter egg, which is a surprise.
"How long have you been here?"
After remembering her old friend, Tsunade slowly came to the edge of the woods, looked at Bai Yu, and asked.
"We just arrived." Bai Yu walked out of the grass and said calmly: "I didn't hear what you said to them."
Tsunade shook her head and said: "This is not important."
Bai Yu nodded and said, "Let's get to the point. Why did you come to me here?"
Tsunade was silent for a moment, and finally stared at Bai Yu illuminated by the moonlight in front of her, and sighed:
"I have heard countless times in Uchiha that your medical ninjutsu is very powerful, so I would like to ask you to help me treat a disease..."
Bai Yu smiled with a hint of ridicule: "If people from the Konoha Medical Department hear what you say, they will definitely have their worldview shattered, but my medical ninjutsu has indeed reached a certain level."
Since further absorbing the original energy of Otsutsuki Ishiki, Bai Yu's abilities in all aspects have been greatly improved.
Not only is the medical ninjutsu comparable to that of Tsunade at her peak, but it's not far behind.
Tsunade didn't reply.
This is indeed not a glorious thing.
As the most dazzling star in the medical ninja world, now he suffers from an absolute obstacle on his way to study medicine, hemophobia...
When medical ninjas treat their companions, they most often use palm senjutsu and chakra scalpels.
For a person whose hands will tremble violently when seeing blood, no matter how subtle his ability to control chakra is, he is destined to be unable to become a medical ninja.
Therefore, since Kato Dan died in front of Tsunade, she finally chose to take Dan's niece Shizune away and cultivate her carefully. On the one hand, she also wanted Shizune to use medical ninjutsu to treat those in need on her behalf.
And now that she has become Hokage, there will inevitably be someone who can use her medical ninjutsu, which was the best in the ninja world a long time ago.
Tsunade didn't want to have to watch silently from the sidelines when others needed her, just like when Dan and his brother died in front of her.
"However, I can try." Bai Yu looked at Tsunade and smiled confidently: "What are you going to use to repay the medical expenses?"
Tsunade looked directly at Bai Yu and said solemnly: "The Sandaime Hokage paid for me before he died."
"Not enough." Bai Yu naturally knew what Tsuna was referring to, so he said calmly: "The concessions made by Konoha and Sarutobi Hiruzen were all won by Uchiha."
Tsunade said silently: "No more nonsense, just make an offer!"
Bai Yu shrugged and said, "I don't have anything I want to ask for from you, or from the Fire Country or Konoha for the time being. I'll tell you when I think of the price you need to pay."
This is the outcome Tsunade least wants to see.
Obviously.
The needs of the slightly taller boy in front of her exceeded those of the ninja world.
"Beyond that, I will try my best to encourage Konoha to let you take away a small part of the Kyuubi's power."
Tsunade didn't want to be so unclear about it. She owed someone a favor, and if she gave the other person some benefit, she would feel better.
"Okay!" Bai Yu didn't bargain.
"My symptoms are hemophobia..."
Tsunade didn't hold anything back and told Bai Yu all about the time point, process, and symptoms of how to suffer from this symptom.
As a top medical ninja.
She knew exactly what information she should share with the doctor.
Although Tsunade is superb in medical ninjutsu, she still cannot restrain her inner fear of blood.
In many cases, doctors really cannot heal themselves. In situations like this, they can only use external forces to solve the problem.
After Tsunade finished explaining the situation, she immediately looked at Bai Yu who was lost in thought, waited quietly for a while, and then asked:
"Have you thought about the treatment plan?"
Next is the moment to test Bai Yu.
Tsunade could tell at a glance whether Bai Yu had any training in medical ninjutsu.
After a while.
Bai Yu replied:
"Well, the reason for your hemophobia is psychological. The death of your brother and the person you like made you feel extremely frustrated, anxious, fearful, and all kinds of negative emotions followed one after another."
"Then you became afraid of the blood that you are used to."
"This is a person's emotional reaction to protect themselves. Therefore, as to how to cure your hemophobia, I plan to use illusion magic to use exposure shock therapy on you to make you face your deepest fears. In addition, I will also I’ll help you find a spiritual sustenance, believe me, you will thank me.”
Finished in one breath.
Bai Yu smiled, and in front of Tsunade, he came to the tombstone of Kato Dan and immediately opened the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
The bright red lines on his eyes were activated in the dark night, and the spiral lines on his right eye contained a trace of golden energy flowing out.
And from Bai Yu's perspective.
In Kato Dan's grave, fragmented translucent energy bodies remained, like candles left in the wind.
This is the change that occurred in the eyes after absorbing Otsutsuki's energy. Originally, Bai Yu could only see those energy bodies that he had absorbed.
But now, he can capture this ethereal energy body in the grave of the deceased.
He didn't know if this thing was a soul.
However, the opponent's energy body is so broken that it is really difficult to merge the consciousness body into one without using the filthy earth to reincarnate.
The only thing to blame is that Kato Dan's death was too tragic. All his internal organs were shattered and blown away, leaving only half of his body.
Whatever!
Bai Yu sighed secretly in his heart. It seemed that Tsunade and Duan were indeed destined to have nothing to do with each other. The final Duan in the original novel only became Tsunade's disposable power bank.
Seeing Bai Yu's inexplicable behavior, Tsunade expressed that she didn't quite understand it.
Subsequently.
Bai Yu came to the grave of Tsunade's brother, Naoki, and glanced at it. His original worried mood suddenly dissipated.
The energy body of the rope tree is relatively complete. He was killed by the detonating talisman. Naruto is one of the few ninjas who can be killed by the detonating talisman.
That thing is really not very powerful.
The damage caused to Nasuki's body was not as terrifying as Kato Dan's brutal killing by the enemy.
As for Tsunade's failure to rescue her biological brother, it was also because of the young age of the rope tree. From the moment the detonating talisman trap at the foot of the rope tree exploded, Bai Yu estimated that the boy had already died.
Bai Yu sighed, and immediately put the broken energy body of the rope tree into his right eye.
Do it all.
Bai Yu turned off the Eternal Kaleidoscope, looked sideways at Tsunade who was following him, and asked:
"When are you going to receive my treatment? I'm not that busy during this period, but there's no guarantee that I'll be as leisurely as I am now in a few months."
Tsunade said solemnly: "Let's start tonight!"
Although she didn't know what Bai Yu had just done, Bai Yu's previous analysis of her symptoms made her have some trust in the young man in front of her.
Bai Yu looked around at the extremely dark cemetery under the moonlight and sighed:
"You probably don't want to be treated here."
Tsunade's beautiful eyes turned, she thought for a while, and whispered: "Follow me!"
The two of them strolled along the tree-lined path.
Arrive at the most prosperous residential area of Konoha Village from the secluded alleys of Konoha.
It was easy for them to prevent ordinary people or ordinary ninjas from finding out.
Tsunade took Bai Yu back to her residence in Konoha, a luxurious Fire Country apartment building.
Second floor.
outside the door.
"Shizune, I'm back."
Tsunade led Bai Yu through the corridor in high heels and came to the door of the hall. Then she took off her shoes, put them on the shoe rack with various women's shoes, and stood on the mat in front of the door.
Bai Yu also followed her lead, taking off his traditional ninja shoes and placing them in an empty space on the shoe rack.
"Come on, come on, sir, I just forgot to ask you to bring me some food."
Shizune trotted to the door, opened it, and saw Tsunade smiling behind her. But soon, she discovered the problem. Tsunade did not come back with the wine, and Bai Yu was followed behind her!
Shizune's smile turned to stone, and he hesitated: "Bai...Bai...Sir Baiyu?"
Bai Yu smiled at Shizune, then waved his hand and said, "Good evening."
"Um, this..." Shizune looked at Tsunade and smiled bitterly: "Sir, this..."
Tsunade's expression was calm, without any disturbance. She immediately led Bai Yu into the clean and tidy hall with wooden floors, and told the astonished Shizune:
"Shizune, I'll give you a task. As long as there is no big event like Konoha Village being attacked tonight, you will handle all the other small things. Don't let anyone disturb us."
Shizune froze on the spot, watching helplessly as Tsunade took Bai Yu into the bedroom after finishing speaking.
Bai Yu scanned the room, taking in every detail, and sighed in his heart, Princess Tsunade would still be able to live a good life.
Compared to the high tower where Changmen of Yuyin Village lives, this place is simply a fragrant paradise.
in the hall.
Standing alone, Shizune's scalp suddenly became numb, and her whole body felt a little floaty.
Did you agree to go out to buy wine?
And ended up bringing a man home?
Tsunade-sama...
Have you finally lost your temper?
Bang——
Shizune looked at the door that Tsunade had closed casually, and her outlook was shattered.
"Ah!" Shizune quickly looked at the little piggy Doudou who was sleeping on the sofa. She felt like she was dreaming.
think carefully.
Her uncle has indeed been gone for more than ten years, so this relationship must not be used to imprison a woman, especially a woman who will always remain in her prime regardless of the changes in the years.
but.
Although Bai Yu is one of the few super geniuses in the ninja world, he has almost achieved achievements in the ninja world that are unmatched by ordinary people.
"But, he must have just grown up..." The more Shizune thought about it, the more confused her thoughts became. She didn't know how she would face Tsunade-sama from today on.
"Calm down, Shizune, as long as a human being has that desire."
"Calm down, Shizune, Tsunade-sama is just doing what everyone in the world would do."
Shizune sat next to the little pig Dodo, her face flushed with embarrassment. From time to time she looked towards Tsunade's bedroom, from time to time she quickly looked away, and from time to time she longed to hear some movement.
bedroom.
The layout of the room is simple, and the air is filled with a mature and fresh smell. There are no bells and whistles pursued by girls, and everything seems very comfortable.
Tsunade took off her light green coat with the word "GAM" on the back and threw it on the bed. Then she pulled out a chair for Bai Yu from under the table by the window, sat on the bed and motioned for him to sit opposite her.
"let's start!"
Tsunade looked directly at the short-haired, dark red boy with Uchiha heritage appearance in front of her, and said:
"Don't think too much. I know that your Uchiha clan's genjutsu is very powerful, so after the treatment, I hope you can let me fall asleep directly. It's better to sleep outside than in my own bed."
Bai Yu nodded slightly, then opened the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, and looked directly into the eyes of Tsunade who was defenseless in front of him.
The next moment.
The consciousness of the two people seemed to travel through time and space, and came to a dark forest shrouded in night and storm.
