In a barbecue restaurant, Jiraiya looks at Tsunade, who is grilling meat and drinking with a bold attitude, with a face full of resentment. Seeing the plates of meat on the table being constantly consumed, Jiraiya's heart is bleeding.
He is well aware of Tsunade's appetite. The meat on the table is just a drop in the bucket for Tsunade's appetite, and he has just repaid ten million Ryo for Tsunade.
Ten million Ryo, even if Jiraiya is a best-selling novelist, that ten million Ryo is a huge sum for Jiraiya.
"Jiraiya, thank you"
Tsunade poured a glass of sake, swayed it in front of Jiraiya, and then poured it directly into her mouth, making a refreshing sound.
"hia~ delicious."
In contrast to Tsunade's smiling face, Jiraiya is drinking sullenly on the side.
"By the way, Jiraiya, why are you here?"
Finally, Tsunade finally asked the main topic of this time.
"It's not me who is looking for you, it's this little guy."
Jiraiya pointed to the side, and saw a white-haired, eye-patched man with puffed cheeks, eating barbecue on the table without any image. The only one who can match him is Tsunade.
And Jiraiya and Shizune are also silently watching on the side, wanting to intervene but not knowing where to start.
"You are, the kid from the Hatake family?"
After carefully looking at Hatake Satoru, Tsunade said with some hesitation.
"Yo, Tsunade-sama, long time no see."
Satoru stretched out his hands holding the chopsticks and greeted Tsunade.
Satoru indeed hasn't seen Tsunade for several years. The last time he saw Tsunade was during the Third Great Ninja War. From then until now, several years have passed, but Tsunade has not changed at all.
"I remember you are called Hatake Satoru, right?"
Tsunade said with some blurred eyes, obviously a bit drunk.
"Yes, Tsunade-sama has a good memory."
"Although I haven't been in Konohagakure recently, I have heard some legends about you. There are rumors that you are now the most powerful ninja in the ninja world, and even a tailed beast has been killed by you."
Although Tsunade's eyes are a bit blurred now, when she said this, it can be seen that she is still very sober.
"Haha, that's just a fluke, maybe the tailed beast I encountered is weaker."
Hearing this, Tsunade directly directly glanced at the other party. Even the weakest tailed beast has the strength of a shadow level, let alone the four-tailed beast killed by Hatake Satoru, whose strength is among the top in the tailed beasts.
"So what are you looking for me for?"
As soon as Tsunade's voice fell, Hatake Satoru's face instantly became serious.
"I have a friend who has a terminal illness, and I hope Tsunade-sama can help to save him."
"I refuse, I have decided not to save people anymore."
"It's going to be bad."
Hearing Tsunade say this, Jiraiya's heart instantly surfaced these two words.
Sure enough, as soon as Tsunade's voice fell, a terrifying chakra burst out from Hatake Satoru's body, and the entire barbecue restaurant seemed a bit depressed. The rest of the customers didn't know where this pressure came from, but they knew that they couldn't act rashly now.
"What? Are you planning to force me to take action? You know, threats don't work for a doctor."
Tsunade is not afraid of the chakra emanating from Hatake Satoru. Although this chakra does make her feel a little scared deep in her heart, a doctor can save people and can also quietly kill the other party while saving people.
"Are you sure?"
Hatake Satoru spat out word by word, and with each word he uttered, the momentum on Hatake Satoru's body increased a bit.
"Calm down, calm down, both of you calm down."
Jiraiya hurriedly made a round in the middle, trying to ease the atmosphere between the two.
There are also other ninjas in this barbecue restaurant, but under this momentum, they dare not move at all.
They know that there are powerful ninjas here that can crush them to death.
"Huh."
Hatake Satoru slowly exhaled a breath, and the momentum on his body went away directly. He knew that he was asking Tsunade for help. Doing this would only make the situation worse.
"I'm sorry, I was a bit abrupt."
Hatake Satoru said apologetically.
Seeing Hatake Satoru converge his momentum, Tsunade's heart also slowly exhaled a breath. Although she was very calm just now, she had been scared to sober up by the momentum just now, and her back was already soaked.
And Shizune next to Tsunade is even more embarrassed. Originally, her strength was not strong, and she had just withstood all the momentum of Hatake Satoru, and she was able to not faint, which already belonged to her strong will.
"It's okay, I understand your feelings."
Tsunade also went on to say.
"But I'm not going to take action anymore."
When she said this, a sad expression appeared on Tsunade's face, as if she thought of some unbearable past.
"Isn't there any room for change?"
As soon as Tsunade's mouth opened, before she could speak, Jiraiya spoke directly.
"Tsunade, don't refuse so directly, give yourself some time to think about it."
While speaking, Jiraiya also winked at Tsunade. As teammates who have been together for many years, even if they haven't seen each other for a long time, the tacit understanding is still there, and they understand what Jiraiya means in an instant.
"Then give me three days to think about it."
Tsunade choked back the words she originally wanted to refuse, and then changed to another way.
The reason she said this was also because she had a fear in her heart. Just now, Tsunade really felt the breath of death. Since her medical Ninjutsu has been practiced to a great success, any fatal injuries, Tsunade has the confidence to recover. She doesn't know how long she hasn't smelled the feeling of death.
"Okay, I hope Tsunade-sama's answer in three days will not disappoint me."
After speaking, the four people separated at the door of the barbecue restaurant, and Shizune kept looking at Hatake Satoru's back, a little lost.
"What's wrong? Could it be that you are interested in that dangerous guy?"
Suddenly, Tsunade hugged Shizune's neck all at once, and a playful smile appeared on her face.
"No, no, no."
Shizune hurriedly said in a panic, her face instantly turned red.
But when she said this, a trace of desolation appeared in Shizune's eyes.
"He is too excellent, I am not worthy of him."
This sentence was said, and it indirectly admitted that she liked Hatake Satoru.
Back in ninja school, almost all the girls in the class focused on Kakashi, only she, her eyes never left Satoru.
