Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Don't Let Me See You Again, Damn It!
On a hillside not too far from Konohagakure, but far enough to have a clear view of the village gates...
Qingchuan finally stopped.
She couldn't go any further...
B was still following her, but ahead lay Konoha's ANBU patrol range.
Qingchuan felt it necessary to have a serious talk with B...
Otherwise, capturing a wild Eight-Tails Jinchuriki would become a real problem.
Taking a deep breath.
Qingchuan pumped herself up, plastered a smile on her face, and slowly turned around.
"Hey, mister, can you come out here? Let's have a good chat."
B, hiding behind a large rock not far from Qingchuan, was taken aback.
"Gyuki."
"I think... we've been spotted."
B said seriously.
"Only an idiot like you would think you've been hiding well this whole time."
Gyuki retorted mercilessly before closing his eyes.
B's expression faltered, looking somewhat embarrassed.
But in that moment of hesitation, Qingchuan's patience snapped, and a firestorm ignited in her heart!
It was just so absurd!
All she wanted was to live a peaceful life, diligently train, and strive to learn Bankai as soon as possible to survive the Uchiha Massacre.
Just a simple goal.
So why did so many damn problems keep popping up?
Orochimaru was one thing.
That guy wasn't too threatening.
Danzo Shimura and Root weren't a huge problem either.
As long as she avoided meeting that old schemer alone, being assassinated by a Root squad like before was unlikely to happen again.
And even if they came, she wouldn't be afraid.
But the Eight-Tails was different.
Forget about the chaos bringing that thing back to Konoha would cause.
Just that hot-tempered older brother of his was enough to make all of Konoha weigh their options…
Who knows what kind of py transaction would occur, and they'd probably sell her out in a heartbeat!
Anyone with half a brain, even without knowing what the future held, would carefully consider the consequences.
But this Eight-Tails Jinchuriki… was clearly not normal.
Getting lost after sneaking out…
And daring to follow her all the way back to Konoha…
He was seriously asking for trouble.
The more Qingchuan thought about it, the angrier she got.
"Come on! Let's have a good chat!"
Seeing that B had no intention of coming out, Qingchuan, fueled by anger, drew her greatsword and marched forward.
"We're not leaving here until we've talked this through!"
Qingchuan unleashed her killing intent without restraint!
Her medium-level Reiryoku was fully released, and the surrounding air seemed to subtly distort!
Although Qingchuan's Reiryoku wasn't strong enough to affect the physical world yet...
The sheer, unadulterated pressure was still incredible!
Hiding behind the rock, B froze again!
"B! If you don't run, you're really gonna get sliced!"
"You can't use that technique right now, so think carefully!"
Gyuki urged him.
Hearing this, B no longer hesitated.
He immediately turned and booked it in the opposite direction!
Seeing this, Qingchuan still wasn't satisfied. Brandishing her sword, she chased him for a good while before stopping when she saw that B had run far enough away.
She lingered for a while, and only after confirming that he was truly gone did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"Damn it."
"Don't let me see you again, damn it!"
Although she was still very annoyed...
That was all she could do for now.
She had wasted a lot of time on the road, and Qingchuan could only blame herself.
Who told her to be nosy and provoke a lost and goofy jinchuriki? (Humorous description)
......
Half an hour later.
Konohagakure, Hokage Headquarters.
Having returned to Konoha, Qingchuan headed straight here and was quickly giving her report.
Although Jiraiya's mission report had already arrived before her return.
But that was just how ANBU procedures worked.
"The process was smooth, although I still couldn't bring back the rogue ninja Orochimaru, I can confirm that Orochimaru is seriously weakened."
"I believe it won't be long before Lord Jiraiya finds Orochimaru again and brings him back to Konoha."
"However... the mission failed, and I am responsible for that. Please punish me, Third Hokage!"
Qingchuan said with practiced formality.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who already knew the situation, was not surprised.
But he still played along and listened to the entire report...
"Don't be too hard on yourself, Qingchuan."
Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a plume of smoke and comforted her.
"That was Orochimaru after all, and your original mission was to assist Jiraiya. Although the mission failed, you still did a good job."
"Thank you for your hard work."
Hiruzen Sarutobi maintained his kind smile.
Qingchuan lowered her head. She was used to this kind of business dialogue.
"By the way… Qingchuan, did you gain anything from this mission?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi asked with concern.
"There were indeed many gains." Qingchuan quickly replied, "Lord Jiraiya taught me a lot, especially Sealless Ninjutsu, which has benefited me greatly."
Seizing the opportunity, Qingchuan used this to reinforce the plausibility of her Hado.
Although she usually went through the motions of forming hand seals, over time, she would eventually be exposed.
After all.
Talent, while it can explain everything, the dangers of excessive talent may not be smaller than fully exposing her Hado.
Hiruzen Sarutobi raised an eyebrow slightly.
Clearly, he was very satisfied with his initial decision.
Thank goodness he let this little girl join the ANBU…
Otherwise, such a good seedling would have been destroyed by that bastard Orochimaru.
Moreover.
With Jiraiya's discerning eye, for him to praise this little girl so lavishly, it was clear that it wasn't just about her talent.
It seemed that the little girl's Will of Fire had been recognized by Jiraiya…
Hiruzen Sarutobi was very pleased about this…
"Alright, you must be tired from the journey, go back and rest for a couple of days."
"In a couple of days, when you return to the Anbu, you should be very happy."
Hiruzen Sarutobi said, his smile suddenly becoming a bit mysterious.
This made Qingchuan's heart skip a beat.
But...
Before she could react.
An ANBU member suddenly knocked on the door. With Hiruzen Sarutobi's permission, he strode forward and whispered into Hiruzen Sarutobi's ear.
Then.
As Qingchuan's heart skipped a beat for the second time…
Hiruzen Sarutobi's aged face… suddenly twitched!
"What?!"
