This Mizukage Is Very Strong, But Overly Cautious

In a rainy country, a young ninja with a white hedgehog head sat cross-legged in a dim tent, staring blankly at his arm wrapped in a white bandage, wondering what he was thinking.

Under the dim candlelight in the tent, his complexion looked extremely warm.

There was a trace of gentle tenderness on his slightly haggard face, but if you looked closely, you could find a trace of obvious complexity in the depths of this expression.

At this moment, besides the sound of the two patters of rain, there was a slight noise from outside the camp.

The young man with white hair and spiky hair looked up, and a plump female ninja with attractive features stepped into his tent.

The female ninja was dressed in armor and had bright blond hair. Even in such a dim environment, the dazzling hair shone like pure gold.

This can't help but make people feel that she is an extremely noble princess, and even wherever she comes, she will be turned into a resplendent palace.

On the charming and handsome cheeks of the girl ninja, there is restraint and fortitude.

After stepping into the tent, she looked at the white-haired young man sitting cross-legged in the tent.

"É*t........."

"How are you doing?"

Her melodious and gentle voice sounded in Jiraiya's ears, and this voice brought a warm feeling like the sun just a little bit into the ear.

"I'm fine, Tsunade."

Jiraiya smiled, shook his head and said.

At the same time, he quietly disappeared the gentleness on his face, and replaced it with a heartless look.

Tsunade shifted his gaze to Jiraiya's gauze-wrapped arm, a bright red color faintly oozing from the white 28 gauze, it is conceivable that [under the gauze is probably a bloody scene in Japan.

Seeing this, Tsunade's mood sank again.

Since Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru led the army to launch a counterattack against Rain Shinobi and invaded the Land of Rain, the war has lasted for nearly half a year.

It can only be said that although Sannin paid enough attention to the situation of the war, they still underestimated the difficulty of this war.

Konoha, who has a strength advantage on paper, has remained passive in the current situation.

During this period of time, there were few large-scale battles between the two sides, and most of them were sporadic encounters, counterattacks, assassinations and intelligence warfare.

As long as there is a tendency to escalate the scale of the battle, Rain Shinobi will immediately retreat, bringing the four-character tactics of "collapse, retreat, sell, and slip" to the ultimate.

As long as Konoha wants to pursue him, he will be blocked by the demigod Hanzō of the Salamander.

Under the tyrannical strength of Hanzō of the Salamander, the ninjas that Konoha went to pursue would soon be repulsed.

And among the group of Konoha Shinobi, with the tyrannical strength of Hanzō of the Salamander, it is almost equivalent to opening the gods and descending to the mortal world like entering a land of no one.

With Hanzō of the Salamander as the backstop, Rain Shinobi fully utilized his "guerrilla tactics" to Ultimate.

Coupled with the fact that Rain Shinobi already occupies the home field advantage of the Land of Rain, and Rain Shinobi is good at assassination, Konoha was miserable for a while.

Three elements of war.

Weather, location, people and Konoha are all at a disadvantage.

The war lasted for half a year, and both sides had their own injuries, but overall they still maintained an infinitely close balance.

At first glance, it seems that the two sides have forced a 50-50 split, but you must know.

In the case that Rain Shinobi itself lacks middle-level combat power, and the combat quality is far inferior to Konoha Shinobi's, the war situation can still be drawn. This already shows that Hanzō of the Salamander has excellent tactics and brilliant command.

And the purpose of Hanzō of the Salamander is also very clear, which is to drag Konoha down in the Land of Rain!

Fortunately, the Konoha family has a big business, and they can still afford to spend with Rain Shinobi in a short period of time.

And that's not the worst.

As the war continued, more and more problems began to be exposed.

For example: because it did not take into account that it would be a long time to fight in the country of rain, the standard weapons and weapons produced in the country of fire will gradually rust due to lack of good anti-rust treatment; Moist and moldy; disease and acclimatization brought about by the weather in the land of rain……………………………

All kinds of problems - broke out, making Sannin anxious for a while.

And because it has been unable to make a breakthrough in the battle situation for a long time, this also puts great pressure on Sannin.

The pressure builds up, and the increased pressure can cause errors and errors in people's judgment.

The injury on Jiraiya's body was caused by his own aggressiveness and mistakes.

He shouldn't have made such a low-level mistake, but now that the situation is getting worse and worse, it is inevitable that Jiraiya will get confused.

"call…………………

Tsunade let out a sigh of relief, suppressing the chaotic thoughts.

Jiraiya's wound was healed by her, and she knew that such an injury was really nothing serious.

What she was worried about was not the wound on Jiraiya's arm, but Jiraiya's psychological state.

Real examples tell Tsunade that the key factor that determines the outcome of a battle on the battlefield is often not the physical condition of the ninja, but psychological problems!

The more advanced ninjas are, the more they will face such problems.

As a commander, he is different from ordinary ninjas.

Every move of Jiraiya affects all the ninjas in Konoha.

Tsunade didn't say much, but came to Jiraiya's side, skillfully helped Jiraiya untie the bandage on the wound, cleaned and healed the wound.

"Jiraiya, you're not the crane tail you used to be."

"Now you are the commander-in-chief of Konoha's army, you must hold on and not fall."

"Also, you're my Tsunade teammate! Cheer me up, you hear?!"

While helping Jiraiya with the wound, Tsunade spoke to Jiraiya.

It seems that because of recent tempering, Tsunade's tone has a strong taste.

"Hahaha!!!"

"Don't worry, I'm Toad Sage Jiraiya-sama, how could I fall down like this!"

Hearing this, Jiraiya laughed extremely brightly [even the body is leaning forward and backward.

It's just that what Tsunade obviously didn't notice was that there was a trace of unconcealable bitterness in Zilai's smile.

“Teammates………………………………………………………

Only Jiraiya can hear this bitter whisper in his heart.

"Well, that's about the same."

Seeing this, Tsunade nodded in satisfaction.

Jiraiya's injury was not serious, and with Tsunade's level of medical ninjutsu, it was naturally dealt with in two or three strokes.

"Okay, since I'm fine, I'll go first."

"There are still things waiting for me to deal with in the medical team."

After treating Jiraiya's wound, Tsunade stood up abruptly and said to Jiraiya.

As the war rages on, with many wounded still waiting for Tsunade's care, her time is indeed precious.

"Well, let's go."

In this regard, Jiraiya just smiled and waved his hands pretending to be heroic.

Seeing this, Tsunade was completely relieved, turned around decisively and left Jiraiya's tent.

And the moment Tsunade turned around, Jiraiya showed a hint of reluctance on his face.

He could feel, it seemed that... he was getting farther and farther away from her...

Because through Tsunade's face, Jiraiya faintly sensed that Tsunade's heart may have already been completely filled by a shadow.

Tsunade may or may not understand his feelings.

But no matter whether she understands or not, it is impossible to respond to him in the slightest.

As Tsunade said, they are just teammates.

Although he knew this very well in his heart, every time his 353 gaze saw the white gauze on his arm, he would always feel a dull pain in his heart.

This is the so-called huge gap between "knowing" and "doing".

You know that she can't be yours, but you still can't treat her calmly in your heart.

Jiraiya knew that tonight was destined to be another sleepless night for him.

Tsunade left the tent, stepped into the rain curtain, and let the rain run down her hair.

"How about it?"

Before Tsunade could go far, a hoarse voice suddenly came from the shadow beside him.

Hearing this, Tsunade stopped and looked towards the dark shadows.

"You bastard, you are really awkward......"

"As for the one-sentence matter, you are obviously the most worried about it. Can you go by yourself?"

"Don't let me go."

Tsunade spoke into the darkness with a dissatisfied face.

In the shadows, a man with purple eyeshadow and a feminine face walked out slowly.

He is none other than the last of the Sannin and the last disciple of Sarutobi Hiruzen - Orochimaru.

"hiss"

Hearing this, Orochimaru smiled. It neighed like a Lion Majesty.

"That's not the same...

"It's not like you don't understand."

After Orochimaru finished laughing, if he spoke meaningfully, there was a trace of strange emotion in his pair of snake pupils.

Hearing this, the dissatisfaction on Tsunade's face gradually dissipated, and he turned silent.

"snort!"

At that moment, Tsunade turned his head unceremoniously, and left with his back to Orochimaru.

Looking at Tsunade's back, Orochimaru apparently said nothing.

But he sighed secretly.

He shifted his gaze to Jiraiya's camp not far away, with a trace of pity in his eyes.
