Chapter 547: Attitude Issues
In the Sand Village, five minutes after the explosion.
The pungent smell of smoke filled the air, and the buildings at the edge of the Sand Village collapsed. The surrounding circular mountain walls were full of cracks.
"Help... help."
"Come on, my leg."
A huge rock trembled and was pushed to the side with a rumble.
"Temari, are you alright?"
The chakra lines stretched out from Kankuro's ten fingers.. He was in the middle of a post-war rescue operation.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Temari coughed again and again. When she looked up and looked around, her first thought was, "Where is this? Is this the Sand Village?"
There were several burnt corpses scattered around Temari. The surrounding ruins were all stimulating her nerves. She seemed to think of something and grabbed Kankuro's arm suddenly.
"Where is Gaara?"
Hearing Temari's question, Kankuro lowered his head and gritted his teeth.
"Lord Wind Shadow was... taken away by the thieves of Akatsuki."
A female Sand Ninja whose half body had been blown up gasped with difficulty. Her bloody hand reached out to Temari. Temari quickly stepped forward and grabbed the hand of the female Sand Ninja.
"You must... save... Big Wind Shadow..."
As she spoke, the female Sand Ninja lost her breath, her arms powerlessly hanging down. This was Temari's close friend, his best friend.
"Ah!"
Temari looked up at the sky and shouted. Tears rolled down her cheeks. After a long time, she calmed down.
"Kankuro."
"What?"
Kankuro seemed to find something wrong with Temari.
"Find a way to ask for help from Konoha. They can satisfy any request. The thieves of Akatsuki must pay the price."
"Well, Baki has asked for help. With the treaty, Konoha will not sit idly by."
There was also a light of hatred in Kankuro's eyes. The figure standing in the sky with a long sword had been imprinted in his mind. The moon behind the other side seemed to be blood red, dyed red by the sand.
Konoha Village, in the office building of the Hokage.
Two hours after asking for help in the Sand Village, the 5th Hokage received the news.
"Shizune. Did the Sand Village provide other information?"
Tsunade wore a loose green dress, but her breasts could not be covered. Although she was not young, her appearance was not the slightest bit old. She looked like a mature woman in her twenties or thirties.
"Tsunade, this is the specific information about the attack on the three people in the Sand Village."
The secretary handed over three pieces of information.
"Is this a trap?"
Tsunade had participated in the second world war, so she didn't have a good impression of the village.
"These three guys..."
A white-haired man sitting opposite Tsunade spoke. It was Jiraya who had just returned to Konoha.
"What's wrong, Jiraya?"
Tsunade looked at Jiraya in confusion.
"I fought these three before."
"What!"
Tsunade sat up straight and picked up the three documents on the desk.
At this time, there were other people in the Hokage, a blonde youth, a pink-haired female ninja, and a white-haired ninja.
The three of them were: The plot's protagonist, Uzumaki Naruto, the medical ninja Senbonzakura, and finally Kakashi, who was a copy of the ninja.
The three of them did not speak, only quietly watching.
At this time, Naruto was somewhat different from when he was a teenager. Although he was still a little impulsive when encountering something, he would not make a fuss. After three years of cultivation with Jiraya, he was more mature.
"Sand village traitor scorpion, Rock village traitor Deidara, and... the ninja Byakuya who doesn't use ninjutsu? Is this guy a reserve member of Akatsuki?"
Tsunade threw down Su Xiao's file and carefully looked at the files of Scorpion and Deidara. They were both very famous rebels.
The information the Sand village sent to Konoha was only the attack and the wind shadow being caught.
The specific information was not introduced because it was too shameful.
Jiraya also picked up Su Xiao's information on the table.
"Tsunade, this guy is not a reserve member."
Tsunade looked up at Jiraya. Although the ninja who used the 'endure knife' was not weak, ninjutsu and physical skills were the mainstream fighting style of the ninja.
Jiraya hesitated for a moment and unbuttoned his clothes, revealing the wound still bandaged.
When the bandage was untied, a half-meter long and bone-deep wound appeared. This wound was very ferocious, and there were traces of blood on the wound.
"This is what that guy left for me. My heart would have been cut if I didn't dodge in time."
Tsunade frowned after seeing the wound on Jiraya's chest. The green light on her hand flashed, and she pressed one hand on Jiraya's chest.
"This kind of injury..."
Haruno Sakura, who was on the side, was shocked when she saw the shocking wound. She was a medical ninja and knew how serious this injury was. The fact that she did not die meant that she had a strong vitality.
"Your ribs are broken. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Tsunade looked unhappy.
"You have almost recovered. You are too busy after becoming Hokage, so I didn't bother you."
Jiraya smiled and scratched his head.
"Idiot."
Tsunade cursed in a low voice and kept moving her hands. Her face turned red after a long time, and her wounds recovered a little.
"Tsunade, how are you going to deal with this?"
Jiraya was also hesitating whether he should personally go to support the Sand Village. He still had other important matters to attend to.
As if seeing through his thoughts, Tsunade whispered to Jiraya: "How was the investigation of the previous matter?"
"There are some clues. The lair of the Akatsuki is likely to be in the Rain Village. Of course, this is only my deduction."
"Rain Village?"
"Yes."
Tsunade was deep in thought. It was impossible to send troops directly to Rain Village. It would create diplomatic conflicts.
"This mission..."
"No."
Tsunade interrupted Jiraya.
"Continue to investigate the Akatsuki. As long as the organization exists, it is possible to attack Konoha. I feel that the Sand Village is just the beginning, and our support is just expressing our opinion. The distance is too far."
Jiraya nodded, and Tsunade thought the same thing. Even if they supported the Sand Village, they would not necessarily fight. This was an attitude problem.
"Got it."
Jiraya got up and left. Although it was important to support the Sand Village, he still had more important things to do. The Sand Village was an ally, but it was only an ally. It was not as important as his own family.
"We will go to help, but..."
Tsunade looked embarrassed. Most of the special Ninja teams in the village were out on missions, and those who did not leave had to stay in Konoha. After all, the neighboring village had just been attacked, and Konoha had to be more alert. Moreover, many mysterious forces have appeared in the Fire Country recently.
"Granny Tsunade."
Naruto opened his mouth, and Tsunade seemed to have a manhole on her forehead. Her gaze seemed to say: If you dare to call me granny again, I will hang you up and whip you.
Women cared about their age, and the Hokage was no exception.
"What is it?"
Tsunade's tone was not very good, and Naruto smiled as if he knew he had said something wrong.
"Let us go to the 7th class."
Naruto had just returned to Konoha, and he had been cultivating outside for three years. He was preparing to show off his skills.
"This..."
Tsunade hesitated. She had heard from Jiraya that the Akatsuki organization was plotting a Biju. From the fact that the Ichibi Jinchuriki was kidnapped, this news had been confirmed.
There was a difficult problem in front of them. Now that no one was in the village, many superior Ninja teams went out and did not return. Class 7 seemed to be the best choice.
Tsunade knocked on the desk and made a bang.
"Sure, you guys will be the vanguard. Now, hurry to the Sand Village."
"Yes."
Kakashi nodded and left the Hokage's office with Naruto and Xiao Ying.
"Tsunade, is this okay?"
Shizune seemed to be worried.
"What is not a problem?"
Tsunade looked at Shizune with a smile on her face.
"It's to send Naruto to help."
After listening to Shizune, Tsunade shook her head.
"It will take three days to get to the Sand Village from Konoha. Even if Kakashi doesn't sleep or rest, it will take about two days. We only sent people to the Sand Village with the same attitude. The Akatsuki won't be so arrogant to stay near the Sand Country after catching Jinchuriki."
