Chapter 147 Tsunade: Why are you chasing after the crematorium?
The Hokage's office.
Tsunade took the documents that Shizune handed her.
Tsunade had only been Hokage for a short time, and most things were handled quietly. She had no idea how many members of the Kurama clan were still alive.
The information Shizune handed over startled Tsunade: "Is this the only one left?"
Tsunade didn't say that the Kurama clan was wiped out and only one person remained. Rather, it was that the one who inherited the Kurama clan's bloodline limit had the talent to assist Bai Mo and his group.
It's just that the other saddle horse clans are too disappointing.
Take, for example, Kurama Unkai, the current patriarch of the Kurama clan. How strong is he?
The enemies that Naruto could defeat single-handedly before Shippuden were basically no match for him.
For example, Raiga Kurosuki, he single-handedly squandered the prestige of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist in the early stages.
Then there's this saddle horse and sea of clouds.
Moreover, even if only Yakumo Kurama is left, she herself has significant problems.
This put Tsunade in a somewhat awkward position.
While reviewing Kurama Yakumo's detailed information, Tsunade would occasionally glance up at Bai Mo.
She was prepared to be mocked by Bai Mo, but to her surprise, Bai Mo didn't say anything after she arrived.
This made Tsunade very uncomfortable.
"Kurama Yakumo has some mental or physical health issues. We need to inform her tutor about this. Kurenai Yuhi, Shizune, I'm leaving this to you."
After Tsunade finished reading the information, she put away the scroll and handed it to Shizune.
"OK."
Silent and decisive, she prepared to set off to inform Kurenai Yuhi.
"Wait."
Tsunade called out to Shizune, "Take this message to her as well."
"Okay... uh, Lady Tsunade, you're done..."
Shizune subconsciously agreed, picked up the scroll, opened it, and to her horror, it was news of Asuma's death.
Good grief, they kept this news from her for a while, and now they're just waiting for her to see it, huh?
"How about letting Xiyan go with you?"
Tsunade naturally knew that this situation was awkward, otherwise she would have just called Kurenai Yuhi over and spoken to her herself. Sending Shizune instead was precisely to avoid facing this situation herself.
As for having Uzuki Yugao go with her... after all, Uzuki Yugao also recently lost Gekko Hayate, and it would be easier to handle things if they were in the same boat.
"Alright then, Xiyan, I'll leave it to you."
Silent, she had no choice but to agree.
While waiting in the Hokage's office, Tsunade began to regret her decision.
She should have gone with them.
The atmosphere here is so strange; everyone's silent and pretending to be experts.
Fortunately, Kurenai was brought over soon.
Judging from her makeup, Kurenai Yuhi doesn't seem to have cried a lot; she seems to have a lot of self-control.
It could also be because the two haven't officially confirmed their relationship yet.
Perhaps because she learned about the student Yakumo Kurama, Kurenai Yuhi's sense of responsibility overcame her grief, and she decided to come and take care of important business first.
In short, Kurenai's appearance broke the awkward atmosphere.
"Please follow me, everyone."
Kurenai Yuhi stared blankly at the pile of resurrected beings in the room for a moment before she came to her senses.
Kurama Yakumo is located in a mountain villa outside Konoha Village.
On the way to the mountain villa, Tsunade tugged at her second grandfather's clothes, and then the two of them deliberately slowed down, falling behind the main group.
After confirming that they were some distance apart, Tsunade quickly asked her second grandfather a question.
Tsunade briefly recounted her previous interactions with Bai Mo to her second grandfather, Tobirama Senju.
From the very beginning, when she was disguised as a child, Bai Mo made outrageous remarks, calling her some kind of old hag. Even after they officially met, he was still incredibly rude to her.
But now that Bai Mo is clearly in the right, she was waiting for him to make a move and was ready to apologize, but Bai Mo didn't say a word.
That's why the atmosphere is so awkward.
"Bai Mo, I have a general understanding of his personality. He was very outspoken with you before, but he actually considered you a friend. As friends, there is no need for formalities or awkwardness between us."
However, your repeated doubts have eroded that trust, so he has nothing left to say to you.
As an outsider, it's normal for you to have doubts, so he has no reason to accuse you of anything.
Regardless of whether his speculation was correct or not, Tobirama Senju directly uttered the words that were most suitable for Tsunade to say at this moment.
really.
Tsunade felt even more guilty upon hearing this.
According to what the Third Hokage mentioned, during the Chunin Exams, the Fifth Mizukage and the Fourth Tsuchikage had a good relationship with Bai Mo, which shows that Bai Mo is indeed that kind of person.
"Could this be the legendary reverse Uchiha?"
Tsunade was a little confused.
Having heard so much from her second grandfather and through her own experiences in her youth, she understood the characteristics of the Uchiha clan.
Before gaining the Uchiha's approval, you're no different from anyone else on the street in their eyes; they wouldn't care about your life or death.
But once that line is crossed, the Uchiha will start to open their hearts and minds.
But Bai Mozhao's second grandfather said the exact opposite.
She was very enthusiastic and warm-hearted from the start, but if you encounter someone like her who does things that "lower your favorability," you'll start to treat her like anyone on the street, not caring about her life or death.
"Don't compare the Uchiha clan to that kid; that's an insult to him."
Tobirama Senju corrected.
"Okay, I understand. I'll apologize after we finish our business."
Tsunade made up her mind, put aside her pride, and admitted her mistakes when the time came.
The group arrived at the place where Yakumo Kurama lived.
Kurenai opened the door to her room, where Yakumo Kurama was painting. He was taken aback to see so many people at the door of her little house.
As a reclusive woman who has almost no contact with the outside world, Yakumo Kurama is experiencing a mental breakdown.
The darker side of Ido is starting to stir again.
"Teacher Hong, what... what is this?"
Kurama Yakumo shrank back in fear.
Were these people hired by Teacher Hong to get rid of him?
"Yakumo, don't be afraid, they need your help with something."
Kurenai Yuhi gently comforted Yakumo Kurama before standing up and turning to face the crowd. "Yakumo's health has never been good, so I once advised her to give up becoming a ninja. As a ninja, extracting chakra from cells would only worsen her condition..."
"Are you not feeling well?"
Orochimaru glanced at the First Hokage.
Logically speaking, this kind of physical problem can be solved with the all-powerful interstitial cells.
But obviously, that can't be done here.
With such poor physical condition, it's likely that it won't be able to suppress the Hashirama cells and will be directly devoured.
This situation requires targeted and gradual treatment.
The connection between the beginning and the end is too tight. If we give him some time to study the Otsutsuki cells in Bai Mo's hands, he might be able to find some new methods.
Now, Orochimaru wasn't very confident, so he simply kept quiet.
Tsunade thought the same thing.
If you're not in good health, then train your body and practice physical skills.
The problem is that her techniques for accumulating chakra and rapidly recovering through Creation Regeneration both essentially deplete the body's functions.
It will not only fail to improve, but will actually worsen.
"It can't be just a physical problem, right? Didn't you mention 'psychological issues' in the Hokage's office before?"
Bai Mo looked at Xi Ri Hong.
Upon hearing this, Kurama Yakumo, who was hiding behind Yuhi Kurenai, immediately changed his expression.
