For Naruto Uzumaki, who has never experienced the mission to the Land of Waves or the battle with Gaara, this is the most brutal battle he has ever experienced, involving assassination and fighting, desperate efforts and sacrifice.
To a certain extent, this battle seems to have all the factors that a small-scale battle should contain, even including the politics behind the scenes - although Uzumaki Naruto does not know this now - but the purpose of this battle, Uzumaki
Naruto has not forgotten.
The mission of their Konoha team is to find Tsunade, who is qualified to succeed the Fifth Hokage, to return to the village and to defend against possible attacks.
Although I always like to hang the words "become Hokage" in my ears, when I first received this task, I also had resistance in my heart. However, after witnessing the desperate need to rebuild Konoha Village after the civil war, as well as Hatake Kakashi-sensei and
When Teacher Iruka looked tired, Uzumaki Naruto also understood that at this time, Konoha Village really needed a leader - he might only be able to be the Sixth Hokage.
Of course, before meeting the real Tsunade, Uzumaki Naruto also had imaginations about a strong competitor who "defeated" himself and became the Fifth Hokage, but in these imaginations, all of them were the image of the opponent being wise and powerful.
Unfortunately, when Uzumaki Naruto actually faced Tsunade, all he wanted to think about was to beat her up. This was not because she had taken away the throne of Hokage, but because she had betrayed the trust of everyone around her.
Before meeting Tsunade, Jiraiya did not hesitate to praise her when he occasionally talked about her. Akimichi Choji hoped that Sarutobi Asuma could be cured as soon as possible and also admired her character and strength.
But when Tsunade blurted out her sneer at Naruto in the izakaya, there was only an emotion called anger lingering in Uzumaki Naruto's mind. She teased Shikamaru's performance in saving Asuma, which made Uzumaki Naruto even more chilling.
His anger came from his betrayal of trust and his lack of value for Akimichi Choji and even Konoha Village.
Until now, Jiraiya is poisoned, Shikamaru desperately fights the jounin but ends up in a life-or-death outcome, Akimichi Choji risked his life to fight off Orochimaru, all of which are just for the sake of this, he can only tremble.
A woman who once sneered at the Hokage who needed to protect others!?
"I know you look down on Naruto and think it's stupid to risk your life to protect others." Uzumaki Naruto did not roar or even beat Tsunade, but seemed a little calm and even said indifferently: "But I want to tell you
, The reason why those of us are here to participate in this battle is because we accept the task of protecting Hokage."
"It is precisely because every Hokage regards Konoha as something more precious than his own life, that we will trust him without reservation and defend him to the death - even if we are still genin, even if we have to face Orochimaru, even if
The enemy is a Jonin!" Uzumaki Naruto looked at Tsunade who had raised her head and was looking at him blankly and said word by word: "It is the Hokage's duty to protect Konoha, and it is the Konoha ninja's duty to protect Naruto.
Duty, but you are a coward! So you are not qualified to be Hokage, nor are you worthy of being protected by us to the death!"
"I'm quitting this mission. I'll bear any mistakes I make when I return to Konoha Village!" Uzumaki Naruto said, spitting on the ground, turning around and walking towards Shikamaru, Chouji and Jiraiya. He was going to use
The Shadow Clone Technique led several people on their way back to Konoha Village overnight.
Uzumaki Naruto has hardly helped in this battle. Now this is the only way to make up for the guilt in his heart. He will not sleep without rest. With his physical strength, he should be able to persevere. As for the punishment for abandoning the mission, he can only
He admitted it, because he really couldn't bear to watch Jiraiya and others waiting to die.
Uzumaki Naruto was about to form a seal and use the shadow clone technique, but suddenly a slightly hesitant voice came from behind him: "Wait, wait a minute!"
…………
Serious mental illness cannot be cured by outsiders with a few words. Although the medical ninjutsu in this world is magical, it only treats physical injuries and has no effect on the psychology.
In the final analysis, the cause of the phobia is the patient's own psychological avoidance. Although Uzumaki Naruto's words could not immediately eliminate Tsunade's symptoms, they gave her a reason to face her fear.
After all, Tsunade could not bear to witness Uzumaki Naruto recklessly leading Jiraiya, Shikamaru, Choji and the others back to Konoha. This was no different from murder.
She began to try to overcome the trembling of her hands, and used a technique that was even stranger than that of a genin. She used medical ninjutsu to wake up Kato Shizune first. Uzumaki Naruto briefly explained what happened after Shizune fell into coma, and then looked at her.
Helped under the command of Tsunade who gradually regained her composure.
When a person puts most of her attention on one thing, she will have less energy to distract herself from other things. She will forget some things, just like Tsunade now, as she devotes her energy to saving herself.
When Laiya talked to Shikamaru, Chouji and others about their medical issues, her fear and trembling had dissipated a lot.
Jiraiya's injuries were not serious. With Tsunade's ability and medicine, he could be easily cured. What Tsunade was concerned about was the injuries of Shikamaru and Chouji.
When the three-magatama pattern formed on Shikamaru's neck like a tattoo came into Tsunade's eyes, she couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat.
Orochimaru's defection had a huge impact on Konoha, and Mitarashi Anko was also strictly investigated at that time. The curse mark injected by Orochimaru on her body was even more important. As a medical ninja
Tsunade also participated in the research at the beginning, but even though she was stronger, she had to admit that neither she nor Jiraiya could compare with Orochimaru in terms of "jutsu" talents.
She was able to figure out part of the curse seal's ability and source of power, but there was still no effective way to cure it.
What is certain is that due to the use of the curse seal, the recipient will gradually be eroded by Orochimaru's personality and become his puppet, or a killing tool without his own thoughts. If there is no way to restrain the power brought by this curse seal,
Will, sooner or later the subject will slip into the abyss of hell and end up in a fate worse than death. But the terrible thing is that fierce battles can easily cause this curse seal to burst out and spread naturally, and the specially developed "evil-sealing seal" can only rely on
The will of the subject is used to suppress this power. When the subject is exhausted, this power will also spread. But for the ninja, how can it be possible to never face the dangerous situation of running out of fuel?
(By the way, would you mind taking a look at the "Nara Shikamaru Character Card" related to the work? Every important period of Shikamaru, the servant will open a new chapter, which records the "techniques" Shikamaru has mastered, as well as related information.
, even the chuunin recommendation comments, and the genin admission comments of the Third Hokage, more importantly, have specific ability data, and also have the data of other ninjas as reference.)
