After traveling through time, I became friends with Tsunade

Wood industry camp.

Inside the commander's tent.

"You shouldn't doubt a hero who just saved the entire team. If they knew about this, I don't know how big a mess it would cause!"

Hatake Sakumo looked at Nara Shikama with a serious face, thinking that this guy has a high IQ, but isn’t his EQ higher than mine?

"I'm not doubting it, but don't you think Watanabe Yusuke is too mysterious?"

Perhaps because Yuhi Shinku had left, Nara Shikama spoke without so much scruples: "You are so powerful, why have you been hiding all these years and would rather be an ordinary special jonin?"

"Have you investigated him?" Hatake Sakumo asked in surprise.

"It's not an investigation. The family sent a message saying that the new disciple of the Third-Hai has a very magical bloodline limit. Perhaps we can obtain or learn the method to improve our family's secret techniques from his bloodline limit."

You control the shadows and he controls the lines, what's the connection?

"And what did you find out?"

Hatake Sakumo's curiosity was aroused and he continued to ask.

"Watanabe Yusuke's parents were refugees. They were forced to leave their hometown after World War I and settled in the Land of Fire. According to records at the time, their hometown was in the Land of Rivers, which was the battlefield between Konoha and the Sand Ninja."

"Putting this aside for now, do you know who invented puppetry?"

"The Second Kazekage Shamon?" Hatake Sakumo blurted out without thinking, but suddenly became a little unconfident.

"Yes, that's true about the records, but what if there were records of puppetry in the Warring States Period or even earlier, but it was suddenly lost later, and then accidentally obtained by the Second Kazekage?"

"Hahaha, you don't mean to say that this puppetry was passed down by Yusuke's ancestors?" Hatake Sakumo's expressionless face was also amused and burst into laughter.

"Don't laugh so quickly. Let's talk about yesterday's attack. You know Shusi, right?" Nara Shikama asked seriously.

"The candidate for the next Kazekage of the Sand Ninja, a disciple of the Third Kazekage, and also an elite jonin." Hatake Sakumo quickly searched for information about Shuji in his mind.

"Yes, according to Shinku's statement, Shuji was controlled while he was awake, and used a kunai to stab Ebizo with all his strength. Afterwards, Shinku asked Hyuga Reine to seal his chakra.

Do you think that even the current top puppeteer Chiyo can do this?"

Nara Shikama further analyzed.

"......" Hatake Sakumo was silent.

"To answer the question that Shinhong asked about Shuji and Ebizo, what if Shuji blocked his path, or someone used him to get rid of Shuji? Or what if he himself...

As for Ebizo, there seems to be no news that he has died. Or maybe the Sand Ninja has a bigger plan, to let Watanabe Yusuke gain military merit, so as to get more support from ninjas and become the fourth Hokage?"

Nara Shikama fired off a series of rhetorical questions like a machine gun, leaving Hatake Sakumo speechless and stunned.

If Yusuke were here, he might say, "Shikama, you really have a great imagination."

"This is just your conjecture, isn't it?" After hearing so much, Hatake Sakumo was almost dizzy.

"Whether it is true or not, the Sand Village's attack on the supply team was most likely leaked by someone. I am just guessing one of the possibilities."

"Maybe it's a coincidence?" Hatake Sakumo asked uncertainly.

"There aren't so many coincidences." Nara Shikama sighed.

"Don't tell anyone about your previous guess."

"Who do you think I am? Just the real red side?"

"If he tells anyone, he won't be Yuhi Shinku anymore." Nara Shikama trusts Yuhi Shinku very much. "If the spy is really found, I am willing to apologize to Yusuke."

"Okay! Although he doesn't know about it, your fuss has made me feel a little restrained and I dare not use him anymore. You have to give him certain compensation." Hatake Sakumo said seriously to Nara Shikama.

Outside the tent.

Yusuke was unfamiliar with the place and didn't know many people, so he asked people around about Tsunade's location.

At this time, Tsunade was concentrating on treating the seriously injured ninja. Since there was nothing else to do, Yusuke found a place to sit and kept staring at Tsunade.

"What are you looking at?"

After a while, Tsunade found Yusuke who had been staring at her. After not seeing him for a long time, Tsunade couldn't help but smile happily, then stood up and walked towards Yusuke.

"Long time no see. Congratulations on successfully ending the Rain Country battlefield."

Yusuke first congratulated Tsunade, but Tsunade rolled her eyes, thinking that only Yusuke would say that, if it was Jiraiya who spoke, she would have punched him away.

"Hey, Sarutobi-sensei asked me to give this to you."

Yusuke took out a scroll from his arms and handed it to Tsunade. Tsunade just took it and stuffed it into her clothes. Then, the two idle people started wandering around the camp.

"when are you going back?"

Maybe it was because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, Tsunade didn't know what to talk about.

"I won't go back."

Yusuke still stared at Tsunade with a smile, and there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

"?"

Tsunade stopped and looked at Yusuke in confusion.

"After I accepted the escort mission, I applied to Sarutobi-sensei to fight on the front lines."

Yusuke said to Tsunade with a serious look on his face.

"I've grown a lot. You probably can't beat me anymore."

Hearing this, veins popped up on Tsunade's hands, as if she was going to hit Jiraiya away in the next second. Suddenly she remembered Jiraiya, the idiot who stayed in the Rain Country to take care of three little brats in order to make up for the damage the village had brought to the Rain Country.

After the Rain Country withdrew from the battlefield, Orochimaru went to the Earth Country front.

It's good for Yusuke to stay here, at least I can look after him.

Then Tsunade's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"If you want to beat me, then you must first make a name for yourself."
