Chereads / The Adventures of Naruto & Scarlet / Chapter 68 - MEETING TSUNADE

Chapter 68 - MEETING TSUNADE

Naruto, Scarlet and Jiraiya were on the way to Tanzaku city when Jiraiya says

Jiraiya: Tsunade is a short-tempered and impatient woman.

The balloon in Naruto's hand bursts and he falls backwards when Scarlet catches him.

Naruto: Thank you nee-chan.

Jiraiya: Naruto we don't have time to waste now if we are late then that bad-tempered woman will escape again.

Naruto: Hey! Pervy sage how can you say these words to your hard-working apprentice.

Jiraiya: Right now finding Tsunade is more important.

We then enter the Tanzaku city and Jiraiya starts enquiring others about Tsunade.

After enquiring many shops Jiraiya takes us further into the city when a lady who sells lottery tickets called us. She asked is buy a lottery ticket, I was not interested while Naruto bought a ticket luckily he managed to win some money too.

They were walking further when Scarlet jumped onto the building ahead in order to search faster for Tsunade as was thinking 'How good would it be if had watched every episode in naruto, too bad due to restrictions of work I could only watch some episodes or else I would have easily found Tsunade. Forget it I am getting really greedy, it is already a great advantage for me by having a basic knowledge of the plot even if I don't have the detailed information. '

Scarlet observes that the Tanzaku castle was collapsed and immediately alarmed Jiraiya and Naruto. Jiraiya, Naruto and Scarlet arrive at the top of the building.

Naruto: What the hell is going on here!!

Jiraiya: Calm down, Naruto.

Jiraiya calls a citizen and asks.

Jiraiya: Hey can you tell me what's going on.

Villager: You guys should also escape, a snake monster had attacked and demolished the castle.

Hearing this Scarlet thinks' So the prey is here'. Jiraiya senses some bloodlust from Scarlet which alarms him.

Scarlet immediately rushes towards the Tanzaku castle and arrives at the spot.

Scarlet: Too bad the prey has escaped.

Jiraiya and Naruto arrive at the scene.

Jiraiya: It seems that we are late.

Jiraiya comes towards Scarlet and says.

Jiraiya: Scarlet aren't you too confident, thinking of facing Orochimaru.

Scarlet: I just wanted to take advantage of Orochimaru's injuries.

Jiraiya: Scarlet although you are very talented, you are not Orochimaru's opponent right now. Orochimaru is like a snake, even if a snake is injured its venom is always poisonous.

Scarlet calms down and starts thinking' What he said is indeed true. I should not forget the fact that Orochimaru did not lose his arms as he lost in the original series because of the death reaper seal but in return Sarutobi is alive. Even if I can't defeat Orochimaru, I can at least try to harm him or kabuto. I also have Sasuke as a spy to take Orochimaru. So I need to stay calm.'

Scarlet then joins Naruto and Jiraiya.

Seeing that Scarlet has calmed down Naruto and Jiraiya were relieved.

The again went searching for Tsunade. Even after searching for such a long time they were unsuccessful. Finally, they stopped before a bar when Jiraiya suggested.

Jiraiya: Why don't we go and eat something here.

Scarlet: Sure.

Naruto: Hey what are you saying pervy sage Nee-chan and I are still under 18.

Scarlet: We can just eat food Naruto. There is no need to drink.

(Inwardly thinking) My body will most likely grow completely in the next two years after which I drink as I please.

They enter the bar while Naruto was arguing with Jiraiya.

Jiraiya sees a blonde lady whom he stares for a while, the blonde lady also stares at Jiraiya.

Jiraiya points his finger at her and says.

Jiraiya: Tsunade!!!!!

Tsunade got up from her chair and says.

Tsunade: Jiraiya!!!!

Jiraiya: I have finally found you, man I am very tired now.

Even though I knew she looks young, I was shocked by seeing how young Tsunade looked. I thought 'Tsunade is lucky that there are not many elite female shinobi or else they would have fought Tsunade for this jutsu '

We sat opposite to Tsunade and Shizune and started to eat the meals ordered by Jiraiya.

Tsunade: What a day! meeting old acquaintance everywhere.

Jiraiya pours some alcohol into Tsunade's cup and drinks some himself and says.

Jiraiya: Orochimaru huh? So what happened.

Tsunade: Nothing, he just wanted to say hello.

Scarlet whispers 'Since when did that stupid snake become so amiable'

Tsunade heard her but ignores it.

Tsunade then takes out a deck of cards and jumbles them and keeps them on the table.

Tsunade: So what do want from me?

Jiraiya picks up the cards and jumbles them and says.

Jiraiya: I will get straight to the point. Tsunade, the village has requested you to be the Fifth Hokage of the village.

Everyone except Scarlet was stunned after hearing this.

Jiraiya: You heard about the Third Hokage right.

Tsunade: Yeah, Orochimaru told that he tried to kill him but failed but I am really curious who is that brat he was talking about?

Jiraiya: Look at her yourself.

Saying this he turns his eyes towards Scarlet.

Tsunade sees Scarlet after observing her more clearly she suddenly asks.

Tsunade: Hey!! Why is she looking a little bit like Kushina!!!
