Chapter 138 Shizune's Thoughts
The distance from Konoha to the southwestern front was not far, but Shingetsu Seiun felt that time was passing very slowly.
Many times, the thought crossed his mind: Maybe I should just give up on the system task.
How about breaking off all ties with Kai?
Immediately, he remembered the help the system had given him and quickly dismissed the terrible thought.
insist.
insist.
Once we reach the camp, everything will be fine.
With his eager anticipation, the camp was finally in sight.
Led by the Jonin, the group entered the camp, and Shingetsu Seiun's first impression was its cleanliness.
The campsite tents were arranged in a neat and orderly manner, with well-organized zones. The ground was flat and dry, and areas prone to dust were even watered.
If Orochimaru's Northwest Front was characterized by strict discipline, then the Southwest Front was characterized by cleanliness and hygiene.
Shortly after entering the camp, Shingetsu Seiun and the others were taken to a flat area for a briefing, which was also the first time Shingetsu Seiun had met Tsunade.
Standing in the crowd, he looked at Tsunade in full military uniform in front of the formation, and his first impression was that she was powerful.
great.
Vast and profound.
So much so that I couldn't help but gasp.
Shenyue Xingyun was no stranger to powerful people.
Putting everything else aside, just look at his girlfriends; quite a few of them are quite capable.
Rinrinko, the senior student in the medical department, is very capable.
Kanako, who is still young, is exceptionally talented.
However, no one had ever given him such a strong impact.
Their imposing and majestic figures are a sight to behold!
At the same time, Tsunade, who was giving a speech, also noticed Shingetsu Nebula.
It wasn't because the latter had any problem with his vision; it was simply because Shenyue Xingyun was too conspicuous in the crowd.
Even though he wasn't standing in the front row, and even though he tried his best to hide his presence, his extraordinary temperament and unconventional appearance still made him stand out like a firefly in the dark.
So much so that Tsunade's gaze, which had only casually swept over the new ninjas, immediately settled on Shingetsu Seiun.
A strange light flashed in Tsunade's eyes.
Even though she was not young, she had never seen such an extraordinary and outstanding young man.
Suppressing her amazement, Tsunade withdrew her gaze, said a few simple words, and returned to the main tent.
Then, Hyuga Hiashi, the head of the Hyuga clan, stepped forward and, in his capacity as deputy commander-in-chief, announced the placement and tasks for the newly arrived ninjas. After a brief briefing, he said, "Chunin and Genin, get settled in quickly and follow the orders of the Jonin captains."
"Special Jonin and Jonin, come with me to the main tent."
The crowd dispersed, and Shingetsu Seiun, along with several Jonin, headed towards the headquarters tent.
Inside the large tent, besides Tsunade standing in front of the map and several Jonin, Shingetsu Seiun also saw a familiar person.
Mute.
The other person was holding a stack of documents and stood respectfully beside Tsunade. When Shingetsu Seiun appeared in the tent, her eyes lit up instantly, and she quickly lowered her head as Shingetsu Seiun looked over.
A very introverted girl.
At this moment, Tsunade looked away from the map and asked Hiashi Hyuga beside her.
"Is everyone here?"
Hiashi Hyuga replied, "Except for the three on duty, all the other Jonin are here."
Tsunade nodded, her gaze sweeping over the crowd before her. When she saw Shingetsu Nebula, her expression turned surprised.
"You're a Jonin too?" Tsunade couldn't help but ask.
Among the group of Jonin, Shingetsu Seiun stood out. He was young and handsome, almost as if he had wandered in by mistake.
Shingetsu Seiun respectfully replied, "Special Jonin."
Tsunade frowned slightly: "Who bestowed this title?"
Shingetsu Seiun said, "Lord Orochimaru of the Northwest Front."
Upon hearing this, Tsunade's brows relaxed.
She knew Orochimaru extremely well; the fact that he could be promoted to Special Jonin on the front lines meant that he must have considerable strength.
"What are your special skills?"
"His swordsmanship is passable."
Tsunade nodded.
Even though a swordsman at the Jonin level has a negligible impact on the overall battle, he is still a skilled fighter and capable of carrying out important missions.
"Alright, let's assign everyone their tasks."
"Recently, Sunagakure has been making more and more frequent moves. I suspect they may be preparing to make a move. At times like these, we must be on high alert, and our perimeter security and reconnaissance must be effective."
"If the other side makes a move, we must guarantee a prompt response!"
"Now, those whose names I call, please come and collect your mission scrolls. Hyuga Hizashi—"
After everyone received their respective mission scrolls, they left the main tent one by one. When the last Jonin left, Tsunade put away her serious expression and looked at Shizune, who was lost in thought.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Ah!" Shizune was startled. She patted her chest, making a hollow sound, and said, "Lady Tsunade, you scared me to death!"
"You were just too engrossed in your own world," Tsunade teased Shizune. "What, you like that kid from earlier?"
Silent blushed instantly.
"Lady Tsunade! What nonsense are you spouting?!"
"We're just classmates, classmates from the same year."
"Oh~" Tsunade feigned realization, then said, "So, it wasn't just love at first sight, but rather a long-standing crush?"
Jingyin kept her head down, but unfortunately, the area below her neck was too open, leaving her nowhere to hide her embarrassment.
"Alright," Tsunade said nonchalantly, "If you like someone, you like them. What's the big deal?"
"If you like someone, go for it."
Silently shook her head.
Tsunade: "What, you're scared?"
Silent hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.
Seeing this, Tsunade quickly realized the reason.
"Is the other person already taken?"
Silent nodded.
Tsunade thought to herself, "That makes sense. How could a man who looks like that be unclaimed? He must have been snatched up by some bolder guy long ago."
If it were someone else, she might have just let it go, but the other party was silent. She thought about it and figured that at Shenyue Xingyun's age, she probably hadn't settled down yet.
So she said, "Jingyin, since you like it, why not just take it?"
Upon hearing this, Shizune looked up and then gave a wry smile.
"Lady Tsunade, it seems like this won't work."
"What are you afraid of!" Tsunade said, "Believe in yourself!"
"When I met a man I liked, I took the initiative to pursue him! Shizune, if you want to get what you like, you must be prepared and have the courage to put in the effort."
Shizune looked at Tsunade in front of her, her gaze lingering on the other's flawless face and lofty ideals for a moment, then turned to helplessness.
You are you, and I am me, Lady Tsunade!
Seeing Shizune's hesitant manner, Tsunade said with displeasure, "What are you afraid of?"
"If we ninjas don't even have courage, we might as well go home and have kids."
Jingyin finally spoke up, weakly saying, "Xingyun has a girlfriend."
97
"If I want to take it, my chances of defeating my opponent are too slim."
Tsunade asked in confusion: "Is she very beautiful?"
Shizune nodded, then shook her head: "They're not just pretty, there are a lot of them too."
Tsunade raised an eyebrow: "How many could there be?"
Three, or five?
Mute: "There are always dozens."
Tsunade: "————"
