Chapter 72 I'm still just a child
"Phew... I'm full."
Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, Tsunade ate the entire roasted chicken, not even leaving the head and tail.
Tsunade, having thoroughly enjoyed her meal, threw the last chicken bones into the fire, a satisfied expression on her face.
Seeing Tsunade eating with gusto, Gojo Yoru, who had somehow acquired a sake bottle, chuckled and said, "You're full? Want some more sake?"
Seeing the sake bottle swaying slightly in Gojou Yoru's hand, Tsunade's eyes lit up, and she excitedly shouted, "Give it to me, give it to me now!"
The words were full of ambiguity. If it weren't for her last shred of adult dignity, Tsunade probably would have pounced on her like a puppy.
Gojo Yoru didn't tease her any further and threw the sake bottle at her.
"ha……"
Taking the sake bottle, Tsunade unscrewed it, tilted her head back, and took a big gulp, her expression changing from satisfaction to happiness.
Gojo Yoru asked, "You're not angry anymore, are you?"
Tsunade, in a good mood, just rolled her eyes at him again and continued drinking, saying, "Since you're so sensible, I'll reluctantly forgive you."
"Should I say thank you?" Gojo Yoru teased. "Oh right, I haven't said thank you for the second time."
"puff……"
Tsunade suddenly spat out the air, choking and coughing repeatedly.
Ignoring her own breath, Tsunade glared at Gojo Yoru with murderous intent: "Kid, do you believe I'll kill you?!"
Her face was flushed red, whether from choking or embarrassment, it was hard to tell.
"I believe it, I believe it, wow..."
Gojo Yoru raised his hand and nodded, but his tone was incredibly irritating.
Then, thinking about the Flying Thunder God Kunai on her own, Tsunade felt irritated and had nowhere to vent her anger, so she could only grit her teeth and glare at Gojo Yoru.
This bared-tooth expression is quite similar to Kushina Uzumaki, like an adult version of Kushina Uzumaki.
Knowing when to stop, Gojo Yoru immediately changed the subject with a serious expression: "You've been unconscious for several hours, and Hanzo of the Salamander has seen us. Plus, there's my Flying Thunder God Kunai in the bamboo forest. I'm afraid our identities and ninjutsu have already been exposed and spread."
"Just as you said, Lady Tsunade, Konoha has essentially declared war on Amegakure. Has this price been exchanged for commensurate gains?"
Tsunade understood Gojo Yoru's meaning and replied just as seriously, "That underground base wasn't looted. It contains medicinal herbs, medicines, equipment, and a formula area; it is indeed a pharmaceutical workshop."
"I have already asked Lord Slug to move most of the things inside to the Wet Bone Forest."
"If there really is a formula for the antidote inside, even if it is broken down into hundreds of parts, as long as I have a bottle of antidote and enough time, I can piece it together."
"Even if there is no formula inside, as long as I confirm that those medicines contain an antidote and in sufficient quantity, I can still develop a formula to counteract the poison of the salamander in a certain amount of time."
Tsunade's tone was full of confidence: "I already know what toxins are in the Salamander's deadly poison. Even if I start from scratch, I can develop a formula faster than that old woman Chiyo."
"Then let's go back and report to Orochimaru and the others now, otherwise I'm worried that things might change if we delay," Gojo Yoru suggested.
Realizing they had been exposed, Tsunade nodded: "We should inform them as soon as possible. Wait for me a moment."
Rolling up her sleeves, Tsunade glared at Gojo Yoruichi, who still had her wristband storage scroll still there, and said, "Turn around. If you dare to peek, I'll kill you!"
"Lady Tsunade, you're slandering me again," Gojou Yoru retorted. "If I wanted to see it, I would have seen enough while treating you, and even done more outrageous things without you knowing."
"You did it?" Tsunade asked, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
"A metaphor, it's a metaphor..." Gojo Yoru played her most lethal trump card, "I'm just a child, and you're slandering a child? Are you a pervert?"
As a medical ninja, Tsunade seemed to realize something, and her imposing aura instantly weakened. Looking at Gojo Yoru, who was a little taller than her, she couldn't help but retort, "With your height, who would believe you're a child?"
"Apologize, apologize to me right now."
"Shut up, turn around right now."
Tsunade raised her fist, her tone deliberately menacing as a threat.
Gojo Yoru turned away with a look of utter disdain.
A sound like a balloon popping soon came from behind.
A moment later, an arm suddenly attacked Gojo Yoru from behind, grabbing his neck.
"I knew I wouldn't be able to get over this without giving you a good beating."
Having changed into a new outfit, Tsunade, while still holding him by the throat, grumbled, "You're younger than my brother, yet your mouth is so foul. I don't know what Kushina saw in you?"
"Violent woman, you're ungrateful."
Gojou Yoru teleported away from Tsunade's chokehold and then slapped her on the head.
"How dare you hit me?"
Tsunade covered her head, staring at Gojo Yoru with disbelief in her eyes.
"What, I can't even fight back?" Gojo Yoru said matter-of-factly. "Don't think that just because you're a senior you can act unreasonably. I won't give you any face if I don't like you."
"Then let me see what you're capable of!"
Tsunade threw a punch, but it still missed.
This time, she was mentally prepared. She suddenly pulled back her strength, turned around, and blasted the remaining force behind her.
The result was still unsuccessful.
Snapped!
A slap came from the left, making Tsunade's head tilt to the side.
Gojo Yoru sneered, "Violent woman, are you putting on a circus act for me?"
"Damn Flying Thunder God Technique! Why did my second grandfather invent such a disgusting ninjutsu?"
Tsunade broke through her defenses and took out a Flying Thunder God kunai, slamming it hard onto the ground.
Then she crossed her arms and glared angrily at Gojo Yoru: "You brat, do you dare stand still and let me punch you?"
"That's so childish. When did our ages switch?" Gojou Yoru rolled her eyes at Tsunade and urged, "Stop fooling around. We still need to go back and report to Orochimaru-sensei and the others."
Before Gojo Yoru, Tsunade, who had lost all her adult authority, could only resign herself to picking up the Flying Thunder God kunai and walking over to threaten through gritted teeth: "Remember, you are not allowed to tell anyone else what happened here, or I will kill you."
"I'm the kind of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force," Gojo Yoru said softly. "If you threaten me like this, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares every day and accidentally talk in my sleep."
A red thumbs-up punctuated her forehead as Tsunade pleaded with a forced smile, "Please keep this a secret. Don't tell anyone about what happened today, especially my disheveled state. Don't let Orochimaru, Kushina, or Sarutobi-sensei know."
"So you can say nice things too, not bad, not bad..."
Taking advantage of his height, Gojo Yoru patted Tsunade on the shoulder like an elder, looking pleased, and was about to ignite the powder keg.
Before Tsunade could get angry, Gojo Yoru immediately poured cold water on her anger.
"We're about to teleport, so control your expression."
Tsunade immediately adopted a serious expression and disappeared into the cave with Gojo Yoru.
