Chapter 721: Teaching in the Hidden Leaf, the System Says I Am Tsunade
"As expected of Lady Tsunade."
Kitazawa gave a thumbs-up and said.
"That's easy to say, but if the Hidden Mist Village really brings out their jinchuriki, it will become very troublesome if we want to run."
Tsunade rubbed her brow, looking extremely troubled.
With her movement, a large expanse of fair, tender skin rose and fell.
Kitazawa's gaze instantly fell into the abyss.
"What are Itachi looking at?"
Tsunade raised her hand and elbowed his arm.
"My apologies."
Kitazawa said quickly, "It's human instinct."
"Itachi're certainly frank."
Tsunade was stunned for a moment, but she wasn't angry. She said, "It's a pity Rina hasn't learned the Adamantine Sealing Chains yet."
In the original story, even the just-delivered Kushina Uzumaki could suppress the Nine-Tails with the Adamantine Sealing Chains.
"She hasn't been learning sealing jutsu for long, so there's no helping it."
Kitazawa shook his head and said.
Ever since Rina Uzumaki was rescued and brought back to the Hidden Leaf Village, she had been recuperating.
As for when she was in the Hidden Grass Village, she didn't even have the chance to learn sealing jutsu.
"Hmm."
Tsunade waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, the Sealing Squad's sealing jutsu isn't bad either."
"Lady Tsunade."
Just then, Shizune's voice rang out from outside the tent.
"Itachi is here, go find him."
Tsunade lifted her head and said.
"Call me if anything happens."
After Kitazawa greeted her, he walked out of the main tent.
Tsunade watched his back, unable to help but feel a bit dazed.
She always felt that the way she and Kitazawa got along was very strange; it didn't feel like teacher and student.
"Itachi two talk."
Shizune didn't disturb them and left while holding Tonton.
"Itachi."
Kitazawa took the initiative to speak, "I have something I'd like the Anbu to help with: the final exam rankings for the Genius Class."
"That's simple."
Itachi Uchiha agreed immediately upon hearing this and said, "I will return to the Hidden Leaf Village tomorrow."
"Don't return to the Hidden Leaf Village during this time; Itachi can play a greater role by staying here."
Kitazawa shook his head and said.
"Then I will send someone back."
Itachi Uchiha was stunned for a moment before changing his words.
As an Anbu, he naturally knew the news that the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, was about to arrive.
But did Kitazawa trust his strength this much?
Itachi Uchiha couldn't help but feel puzzled.
After all, he had never exposed his Mangekyo Sharingan.
Itachi Uchiha didn't think too much about it.
What if Kitazawa had just mentioned it casually?
"Thank Itachi."
Kitazawa didn't waste any more of his time; after chatting for a few sentences, he returned to his own tent.
Kurenai Yuhi and Kabuto Yakushi hadn't left even after finishing their meal.
"The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, will likely arrive tomorrow."
Kitazawa said after sitting down next to Kurenai Yuhi.
"Even the Fourth Mizukage is coming?"
Kurenai Yuhi looked surprised.
Kabuto Yakushi and the others also felt astonished.
"Don't worry, we'll just keep doing what we're doing."
Kitazawa paused and asked again, "Kabuto, and Izumi, how is your ninjutsu training going?"
"The Composite Ninjutsu: Flame Wind Turbulence is very difficult; we estimate we still need half a month."
Izumi Uchiha said embarrassedly.
Wind Style: Pressure Damage and Fire Style: Searing Migraine are both B-rank difficulty ninjutsu.
They had been learning while fighting, and in one month, they had barely managed to use them.
But the Composite Ninjutsu: Flame Wind Turbulence was different; combined, it was A-rank difficulty.
More importantly, since they were using it together, they had to focus on coordination.
"Izumi has the Sharingan, so maybe it won't take half a month."
Kabuto Yakushi added.
"The Sharingan is indeed very useful."
Kurenai Yuhi sighed upon hearing this, "The Wind Style: Rasengan I'm learning is much slower than yours."
Kabuto Yakushi and Izumi Uchiha were Kitazawa's students and also her juniors.
Having learned the ninjutsu at around the same time, she was the slowest.
Kurenai Yuhi deeply felt the gap in talent.
"Senior Kurenai, Itachi are learning an A-rank ninjutsu, while we are only learning B-rank ninjutsu."
Kabuto Yakushi said with a smile, "If we were to learn A-rank ninjutsu, we definitely wouldn't be able to compare to Itachi."
"Itachi certainly know how to talk."
Kurenai Yuhi couldn't help but laugh.
"Everyone go back and rest."
Kitazawa stood up and said, "If there are any missions, I will notify Itachi."
"Yes, Teacher Kitazawa."
The three of them said in unison.
Kitazawa and Kurenai Yuhi entered the tent.
"I wonder if I can still learn Wind Style: Rasengan before the war ends."
Kurenai Yuhi stretched, her clothes becoming quite breathtaking as she did so.
Kitazawa subconsciously took a look; it was quite a bit worse than Tsunade's.
However, one couldn't blame Kurenai Yuhi.
In the entire ninja world, the only ones who didn't lose to Tsunade were probably Samui and Hinata Hyuga.
"Just do your best, don't force it too much."
Kitazawa sat cross-legged and took out paper and pen.
He rarely learned new ninjutsu during this time, at most activating his Three-Tomoe Sharingan to copy the ninjutsu of the Hidden Mist Village ninjas.
Of course, he hadn't been idle even without learning ninjutsu.
His main task was modifying the medical ninjutsu for limb regeneration.
After such a long effort, and with the Medical Forbidden Jutsu: Body Regeneration as a foundation, his progress was quite good.
Kitazawa felt he could get it done within this month.
Seeing this, Kurenai Yuhi didn't disturb him and instead practiced Wind Style: Rasengan.
Regarding the arrival of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, the Hidden Leaf Village was still relatively calm.
But a group of people at the Hidden Mist Village base couldn't sleep.
Ao's tent.
Mei Terumi and other Hidden Mist Village jonin rushed over after receiving the notification.
"What did Elder Genji say?"
A young ninja asked impatiently.
The jonin who could come here for a meeting all belonged to Genji's faction.
Someone like Zabuza Momochi wasn't there.
As a genius, he was arrogant and disdained joining any faction.
In the original story, he even attempted to assassinate the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, wanting to take his place.
"Elder Genji doesn't know the specific reason either."
Ao shook his head and said.
"Then what should we do?"
Mei Terumi frowned slightly, "After Lord Mizukage arrives, he will definitely take over command, and we will have to listen to his arrangements."
"Lord Mizukage will most likely lead us to launch a full-scale attack on the Hidden Leaf Village."
Another middle-aged ninja spoke up, "I don't know how many more casualties there will be."
He didn't have a high opinion of the Hidden Mist Village.
The gap between the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Leaf Village was visible to the naked eye; it wasn't something that could be made up for by just one Yagura Karatachi.
"In recent years, Lord Mizukage's behavior has become increasingly strange, and declaring war on the Hidden Leaf Village is irrational to the extreme."
A middle-aged ninja standing next to Ao asked sonorously, "Is Elder Genji just going to let Lord Mizukage continue acting recklessly?"
"Elder Genji naturally doesn't want to see the Hidden Mist Village head toward destruction."
Ao took a deep breath and said, "But now that Lord Mizukage has just arrived and the war hasn't even started, we cannot persuade him."
"Wait until Lord Mizukage suffers a defeat before persuading him?"
Mei Terumi heard the implication in his words.
"This is the only way."
Ao said helplessly.
The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, was powerful and had high prestige in the Hidden Mist Village.
Even if they wanted to overthrow him, they would have to wait until he suffered a setback.
Night finally came to an end.
A new day.
Kitazawa didn't take any missions and remained at the Hidden Leaf Village base.
Kabuto Yakushi, Kurenai Yuhi, and the others were busy practicing ninjutsu as usual.
