Naruto: Modern Science in Naruto

"I think my death news should have spread in Konoha by now. The Third Hokage, a figure like that, should have known this information."

Haori said.

It was already evening.

In a room in a certain inn, Shizune was treating the injuries on his body.

I wonder what Kushina's reaction would be when she heard this news. Would she strangle Jiraiya to avenge him?

Haori didn't have any fatal injuries, but he did have quite a few minor and serious wounds. After all, he was a strong man who had fought against 10,000 people.

These injuries were all external, so Shizune could handle them.

In the room, Tsunade had returned to her original appearance… or was it her original appearance? There was no need to pretend to be young at the age of 38, right?

This shows how stupid men are. Haori would rather believe that Tsunade was a mature woman than accept the fact that she was essentially an old lady.

Is this kind of self-deception really okay?

At this time, Tsunade was standing by the window, looking out without turning to look at Haori.

This wasn't because Haori's bare upper body was unsightly. Tsunade-sama, as an older single woman, wouldn't be embarrassed about Haori's small frame.

And illness doesn't disgust a doctor.

The main reason was that although you couldn't see anything after he put on his clothes, Haori's body was definitely bloody. Tsunade couldn't handle treating him like that.

Even looking at him would be a mental shock.

Tsunade replied to Haori's question, "Since Jiraiya was willing to send you to carry out this kind of mission, he trusts your abilities. He wouldn't easily assume that you're dead."

This… Haori didn't think so. After all, thousands of people saw him get hit by the Tsuchikage's Dust Release. There might be Konoha spies among them. And those spies might have already used special methods to quickly convey his death news back to Konoha.

Haori had also died after completing a difficult and glorious mission. There might even be some bastards who think he died a worthy death.

They might even engrave his name on a memorial tablet…

Of course, Tsunade made a good point. Since Haori hadn't refused this mission, he must have had some confidence that he could escape the battlefield.

First, he could fly, and he could fly very fast.

Second, if he had to, he could even perform reverse summoning.

He just didn't expect that Iwagakure would send out 10,000 people. This was beyond everyone's expectations.

And Haori's way of escaping the battlefield was to pretend to be dead and then use the Turtle Hermit's Breathing Technique to hide under the water.

As if she sensed that Haori didn't quite believe her, Tsunade continued, "Besides, don't you still have Minato's Flying Thunder God mark on your body? As long as the mark doesn't disappear, he should know that you're not dead."

This made Haori curious. He asked, "Tsunade-sama, but I heard that this mark won't disappear unless the user removes it. Even if you die, you'll still have it on you?"

"Also, Minato-sensei wouldn't be able to sense this mark across several countries, would he?"

"Otherwise, I think he would have come to look for me. At the very least, he would have confirmed my situation."

"Besides…"

Although he said "besides," unfortunately, Haori didn't get to finish his sentence.

Because with a "crack," Tsunade pinched the wooden windowsill into popcorn. She probably had a rather unfriendly expression on her face.

Tsunade still had a bit of a princess personality. She tended to get angry easily when she heard dissenting opinions, especially when Haori listed them one by one, making perfect sense.

She said that because she wanted to relieve someone's unnecessary worries. Couldn't he tell?

"Tsunade-sama, you make a very good point!"

Obviously, Haori finally understood. He felt that as a young ninja, it was very important to respect his seniors' opinions.

It was just about losing a bit of dignity. He would give it up.

Poor Shizune. She was busy circling Haori, exhausting her chakra to help him heal, and only got a few lines at the end.

After treating and bandaging him, Shizune said, "It's done. With my skills and treatment methods, the injury should be fine. But it will probably leave a scar."

There was a hint of regret in her voice.

Haori, as he put on his clothes, said, "Thank you, Shizune. I feel much better. As for the scar… there won't be any."

"Ah? Why? Your injury was treated too late. Plus, I don't have Tsunade-sama's skills. And considering the number of wounds on your body…"

"Because I have good skin." Haori interrupted Shizune's words seriously.

Shizune: "…"

It wasn't because of good skin, but just because of skin, without the word "good."

Once his injury healed, it would magically have a scar-removing effect.

After Haori put on his clothes, Shizune tidied up everything, especially the bloody bandages, Tsunade turned her head.

"Tsunade-sama, do you need treatment fees?" Haori joked.

Don't look at Haori's young age. He was actually a small… rich man. Considering that he had carried out many B-rank and above high-level missions, and he didn't need to spend money on anything, he still had quite a bit of savings.

If we consider which ninja has the highest income based on the number of missions, it would definitely be Jiraiya, because he had carried out nearly 250 S-rank missions like a fool. Haori couldn't compare to Jiraiya, but he still had a small fortune.

"This is a free service."

Tsunade glanced at Haori before continuing, "I'm not so poor that I need my junior's mission money."

She probably just gambles for the fun of it.

After telling Haori to get some rest, she and Shizune left the room.

Haori felt that he was safe with a super-strong ninja by his side, so he slept quite well that night.

But he didn't expect that when Haori woke up the next day, he discovered that he had been tricked by Tsunade-sama.

Because Tsunade and Shizune had disappeared.

The note they left for Haori only had eight characters: "Inn, expenses, all on you!"

What about not needing his junior's mission money?

By the way, the innkeeper handed this note to Haori directly. He had been watching Haori closely, making it impossible for him to run away.

There was no way out. He had to pay up.

As for why Tsunade was in such a hurry to leave, was it because she owed too much money, or was she afraid that too much contact with Haori would attract people from Konoha? The answer was unknown.

But considering it, it was probably the latter. After all, she was very decisive when she left Konoha.

In that case, Haori didn't need to bother looking for Tsunade anymore. He had to respect her choice.

And after the treatment, his body began to recover.

After thinking about it, there was no point in staying in the Land of Hot Springs… He would just return to Konoha.

Almost immediately, Haori left the Land of Hot Springs and sailed to the Land of Iron.

The Land of Iron is a permanently neutral country that has treaties with all countries. It's also the only "country of samurai," so it doesn't participate in the Third Shinobi World War.

In fact, samurai alone have no future. The reason why the Land of Iron can maintain its neutral status is probably because it maintains a certain level of combat power. Many samurai can control chakra like ninjas. The two power systems are fundamentally similar.

The Land of Iron has a cold climate. The difference in temperature made Haori, who had just passed through the warm Land of Hot Springs, feel uncomfortable. So, he didn't stay in the Land of Iron. He went directly to Konoha.

He hoped that his tombstone hadn't been carved yet.

If someone really did carve his tombstone, he would retaliate: ask Kushina-sensei to set fire to the Third Hokage's beard.

Just one fire, and it'll burn for half a year. Honest people, no scams.
