Chapter 171 Something Is Wrong with Tsunade (Part 1, Part 2)

Kazekage office.

Gaara was at work.

On both sides of the desk, there were piles of documents piled high.

Sunagakure Village experienced a defeat in the Chunin Examination, coupled with Fuyi's troubles, the situation was very chaotic.

Gaara has never rested since he took office.

Fortunately, after being trained by Shukaku, he already had little sleep and was very used to it.

Even so, if we can't finish it, we can't finish it at all.

But unlike Tsunade, he had no intention of slacking off or escaping at all.

At this moment, the door was pushed open.

"Gaara, something happened!"

Temari said with a panicked look on her face.

"What happened?"

Gaara's heart skipped a beat.

It is definitely not a small matter to make Temari so chaotic.

Why is Sand Hidden Village so troubled?

"Do you still remember that you suddenly sensed powerful chakra fluctuations yesterday?"

Temari took a deep breath and managed to regain her composure.

"Remember."

Gaara nodded and said, "I asked you to investigate at that time."

"It's the legendary dragon vein."

Temari paused and said, "But this is not the point. The point is that Hatake Kakashi and others disappeared in Dragon Vein."

"What?!"

Gaara stood up awkwardly, unable to calm down for a moment.

"According to our investigation, the mutation in the dragon vein was caused by them. But after the mutation disappeared, they disappeared,"

Temari said in a solemn tone, "I have sent out all the ANBU to look for him, but until now I have found nothing."

"..."

Gaara was silent.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

If it were an ordinary Konoha Village ninja, missing would not be so troublesome.

Because this matter actually has nothing to do with Sunagakure Village.

But the identities of the four missing people are very unusual.

Especially Aburame Shiki.

He is the current Hokage Tsunade's student.

Once angered, Sand Hidden Village may face unpredictable disasters.

"Now how to do?"

Temari subconsciously looked at Gaara.

"Notify Konoha immediately."

Gaara said in a serious tone, "Only by telling the whole story clearly as soon as possible can we avoid the suspicion of Sunagakure Village."

"I'll tell Kankuro to rush over as quickly as possible!"

Temari responded.

This kind of thing cannot be postponed or concealed.

Once suspected, it cannot be completely cleaned.

As for why Kankuro was chosen, it’s because he has a walking puppet and can run fast.

"Send out all available ninjas from Sunagakure Village, expand the search area, and try to find them as much as possible."

Gaara sighed and said, "There are only these two things I can do."

"OK."

Temari nodded.

Seeing his expression, I hesitated to speak.

To be honest, Sunagakure Village behaved like this because it was completely afraid of Konoha Village and it was a disgrace to the five major villages.

But people under the eaves have to bow their heads.

Temari turned and left the Kazekage's office.

She found Kankuro and explained the situation.

After the shock, he rushed out quickly.

Under normal circumstances, it takes three days to get from Sunagakure Village to Konoha Village.

But with his efforts, it only took half a day.

Hokage's office.

Tsunade looked at Kankuro and raised her eyebrows.

The main reason is that his condition is really bad.

His face was pale, his mouth was cracked, and his whole body was covered in dust.

It gave Tsunade the feeling that he had just escaped from a den of thieves.

"Shizune."

Tsunade said casually, "Give him a glass of water."

Shizune was holding the water glass, but before she could step forward, Kankuro snatched it away.

Without saying a word, he drank tons and tons of it.

"Hokage-sama."

Kankuro put down the water glass, bowed slightly and said, "Forgive me for my rude behavior just now."

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Tsunade waved her hand nonchalantly.

"They...they are missing..."

Kankuro gritted his teeth and then plucked up the courage to speak.

"Who's missing?"

Tsunade stopped moving and subconsciously sat up.

She already had a bad premonition.

"Class...seventh."

Kankuro said with difficulty.

The next second, he felt like he was hanging in the air.

Tsunade grabbed his collar and lifted him up.

Her whole face sank and she asked: "How come they disappeared?!"

In the end, he looked ferocious and could no longer control his emotions.

An astonishing murderous aura enveloped Kankuro.

horrible!

Terrible!

Kankuro had the illusion of facing a mad Gaara.

It's like a rampaging tail.

In the next second, he will leave this beautiful world.

His body was shaking, but when he thought of Sunagakure Village, he tried to cheer up.

"It's...dragon vein..."

Kankuro suppressed his blush.

He felt the collar getting tighter and tighter, making him feel like a fish dying of thirst.

"Tsunade-sama!"

Shizune held Tsunade's wrist and said with a trembling voice, "Let him go first and listen to what he has to say!"

She still retains a shred of sanity.

But still confused.

The only good thing was that Kankuro was talking about disappearance, not death.

Otherwise, it would be hard for her to imagine how she would lose control.

Tsunade remained silent and let go of her hand.

She realized that she had just been too rude.

When Kankuro landed, he didn't have time to take a breath, so he quickly told what happened exactly as it happened.

Mainly because of Tsunade's look that made his scalp tingle.

He felt that if he was too slow, the entire Sunagakure Village would suffer.

Kankuro couldn't help but wonder, was their teacher-student relationship so good?

"This brat!"

Tsunade said through gritted teeth.

As soon as she heard this, she knew that Aburame Zhihui was making decisions again!

Because the mission she issued was obviously to capture Baizu and strengthen the seal of Namikaze Minato.

"Tsunade-sama, I remember that the Fourth Hokage also performed missions related to dragon veins!"

Shizune suddenly remembered something and said quickly.

"Go get Minato's mission report on Dragon Veins."

Tsunade sat back in the Hokage's chair, rubbing her forehead distractedly.

"yes."

Shizune ran out.

In less than a minute, a scroll was brought back.

Tsunade opened the scroll, read it quickly, and then fell silent.

The experiences of Namikaze Minato and Aburame Shiki are somewhat similar.

But there is no mention of the internal situation in Loulan.

"Tsunade-sama?"

Shizune couldn't help shouting.

Tsunade looked at Shizune who was full of worry and gave her the scroll.

"Does that mean Zhihui is okay?"

Shizune asked with a look of surprise on her face after reading it.

"..."

Tsunade couldn't guarantee it.

The situation is not exactly the same in both cases.

"Although the Fourth Hokage's team is strong, Team 7 is not bad either. Their lives are not in danger."

Shizune said comfortingly.

Kankuro slumped to the ground upon hearing this.

Saved.

Just now he really thought Tsunade was going to kill him.

"Now go to Sunagakure Village!"

Tsunade suddenly slapped her palm on the table, making a loud noise.

Shizune and Kankuro were both shocked.

"Go get ready!"

Tsunade thought she could calm down and wait, but she found that she couldn't.

This is true even if Minato Namikaze has experienced it before.

And she always thinks about the worst ending.

Especially her gambling with Aburame Shiki.

This resulted in blood constantly appearing in her mind.

Tsunade clenched her fists and her body began to tremble slightly.

"Tsunade-sama?"

Shizune's heart trembled.

This situation is very likely to be a sign of recurrence of hemophobia.

"I'm fine."

Tsunade composed herself and said angrily, "When I see that brat, I'm going to teach him a lesson!"

Kankuro took two steps back.

He finally discovered that there were four people in Class 7, but Tsunade and Shizune only discussed one person, and that was Shiki Aburame.

Now he no longer dared to think about what would happen to Sunagakure Village if something happened to Aburame Zhihui.

Shizune left the Hokage's office.

After she found Nara Shikaku and explained the situation, she and Tsunade set off for Sunagakure Village.

Kankuro was the worst.

He didn't even have time to rest before he had to hit the road again.

Fortunately, this time he met two top medical ninjas, so at least he wouldn't die.

Loulan ruins.

Dragon Vein Seal.

"Hokage-sama."

Gaara took out a kunai.

"This is the Flying Thunder God Kunai."

Tsunade looked at the kunai in her hand, thoughtfully.

She had just checked it over.

According to legend, this dragon vein should have endless chakra.

But how can it be endless now?

At most, it's equivalent to a weak version of One-Tailed Shukaku.

What happened that caused Dragon Veins to consume so much chakra?

Coupled with the Flying Thunder God Kunai, she felt that they might have entered a strange space similar to the three holy places.

After all, Namikaze Minato and the others were like this back then, disappearing for a while and then reappearing.

"I already know the general situation."

Tsunade came back to her senses and said, "This matter has nothing to do with your Sunagakure Village."

Gaara's hanging heart finally fell.

"You guys, go back."

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "I'll wait here."

Gaara and Temari looked at each other, helped the dying Kankuro and left the Loulan ruins.

"Xiyan, prepare the tent."

Tsunade ordered.

Uzuki Xiyan and other ANBU ninjas quickly set up a tent.

"Give me the nectar that brat gave you."

Tsunade looked at Shizune.

"..."

Shizune looked hesitant.

Aburame Zhihui knew that the Dragon Vein would be delayed for a while, so she gave a batch of nectar in advance.

But instead of giving it to Tsunade, Shizune was asked to keep it and designated to drink one bottle a day.

I just drank one bottle today.

"Give me!"

Tsunade said with sharp eyes.

Shizune had no choice but to give her a bottle.

Tsunade took a sip of wine in silence, then took a second sip, and soon the bottle was bottomed out.

A blush appeared on her face.

But why am I still upset?

Tsunade staggered into the tent and lay down on the bed.

"Tsunade-sama?"

Shizune looked at her with a worried look on her face.

She had never seen Tsunade like this.

Suddenly, a treasonous thought came into her mind.

This seems like falling out of love.

"You go out."

Tsunade's voice had a hint of drunkenness.

"yes."

Shizune hesitated for a few seconds, then turned and left.

"So annoying! Kid!"

Tsunade scratched her head, and her neat blond hair suddenly became messy, like a cat with fried hair.

She looked at the unfamiliar ceiling and suddenly realized something was wrong with her.

For a moment, she fell into silence.

…

Somewhere in Loulan.

Uchiha Sasuke looked at the familiar face in front of him, feeling very confused.

Where am I?

What happened?

Although Uchiha Sasuke has never seen Namikaze Minato in person, he has seen the portrait on the Hokage Rock countless times.

The man in front of him was clearly the younger version of the Fourth Hokage.

Looking at the other two young men who took off their masks, aren't these Akimichi Choza and Aburame Shimi?

Especially the latter.

Uchiha Sasuke had seen him many times when he went to find Aburame Shiki.

But there’s still that problem.

They are younger.

"I kind of understand the situation."

After listening to Uchiha Sasuke's words, Namikaze Minato said thoughtfully.

"How to say?"

Akimichi Choza asked curiously.

"He is a ninja from the Leaf Village twenty years in the future."

Namikaze Minato said in shock.

"What?"

Akimichi Choza and Aburame Shiwei both showed surprised expressions.

Uchiha Sasuke even gave up thinking.

"You are people of the future. You should not stay in the past. Otherwise, there will be big changes in the future."

Namikaze Minato said in a deep voice, "Judging from your story, the key person is Baizu, the current Loulan Minister An Lushan."

"But don't Loulan have two ministers?"

Akimichi Choza asked in confusion.

"Both of you?"

Uchiha Sasuke was slightly startled and asked quickly, "Is it Shiki?"

He remembered that Aburame Zhihui was standing with Baizu when the Dragon Vein broke out.

"Zhihui?"

Aburame Zhiwei suddenly said, "Could this name belong to my Aburame clan?"

"He is your son."

Uchiha Sasuke replied.

"ah?"

Aburame Zhiwei had a subtle expression on her face.

He hasn't found a girlfriend yet, but he actually has a son?

"congratulations."

Akimichi Choza said teasingly.

"Not Zhihui."

Namikaze Minato shook his head and said, "His name is Shi Siming."

"Shi Siming?"

Uchiha Sasuke was confused, "What a strange name."

"Never mind that for now."

Namikaze Minato looked at Aburame Shimi and said, "Shimi, find Kakashi and the others."

"OK."

Aburame Shi nodded slightly and said, "I can just see what Kakashi will look like twenty years from now."

"Aren't you curious about your son?"

Akimichi Teiza asked with a smile.

"..."

Aburame Shimi glared at him and released a large number of insect swarms.

After a few minutes, he raised his hand and pointed north.

"Let's go there."

Namikaze Minato took out a flying thunder god kunai.

Uchiha Sasuke experienced the legendary flying thunder god technique for the first time.

There is only one word, that is fast.

"teacher?"

Hatake Kakashi looked at Namikaze Minato, his whole person sluggish.

"She does look the same as Kakashi."

Namikaze Minato suddenly raised his eyebrows. He was about to speak, but then stopped.

He originally wanted to ask him what happened to that eye, but the more he knew, the more it would affect time and space.

"Let me explain the situation to you first."

Namikaze Minato suppressed his inner curiosity and recounted his guess.

"Is this... like this?"

Hatake Kakashi said and turned around.

His body trembled slightly, and his eyes were filled with mist in an instant.

Namikaze Minato was slightly startled.

He, Akimichi Chouji and Aburame Shiwei looked at each other, and they all understood something.

"Kakashi, you must have suffered a lot in the future."

Namikaze Minato walked forward, patted his shoulder, and said gently.

Two-in-one, with chapters updated during the day.
