Become Kizaru in Naruto World - Chapter 21
All three Jonin were present, and Kizaru found it inconvenient to continue practicing. After chatting with Tsunade for a while, he bid farewell and left the training ground.
Watching Kizaru walk away, Tsunade withdrew her gaze and walked towards the place where Jiraiya was lying.
Arriving beside Jiraiya, Tsunade, like Orochimaru, crouched down.
After Orochimaru’s initial treatment, Jiraiya’s injuries had eased somewhat, and his spirits had also recovered.
“Heh, look at what that brat…” Tsunade initially wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but seeing Jiraiya’s miserable appearance, she couldn’t bear to continue.
Without speaking, Tsunade took over Orochimaru’s healing work directly.
After a round of treatment, stabilizing Jiraiya’s injuries, Tsunade stopped and stood up.
“That’s about it; take him to the hospital for a few days of rest.” Saying this, Tsunade gave Orochimaru a look, indicating that he should help Jiraiya up.
Orochimaru understood Tsunade’s intention, reached out, and pulled Jiraiya up from the ground.
“Ow!” The sudden movement made Jiraiya feel the pain again, and he couldn’t help but inhale a breath of cold air. “Hey hey hey! I’m telling you guys, I’m a wounded person now, be a bit gentle.”
Orochimaru didn’t speak, just silently slowed down his movements, using his hands and shoulders to support Jiraiya.
“Shut up, getting beaten like this by a six-year-old kid, and you’re still shamelessly complaining!” Tsunade said with disdain.
“I…” Jiraiya wanted to retort, but realizing that what Tsunade said was all true, he could only lower his head and reluctantly justify himself in a soft voice, “Six years old? Whose child is six years old and looks like that?”
Both Tsunade and Orochimaru heard Jiraiya’s muffled grumbling. The two exchanged glances and smiled at each other, becoming happier the more they laughed.
“You guys are still laughing; it’s really too much.” Raising his head and finding his two good friends laughing happily, Jiraiya complained indignantly.
“Shut up; it’s time to go back.” Tsunade spoke, stopping Jiraiya’s complaints.
After speaking, Tsunade took the initiative to walk to Jiraiya’s side. With Orochimaru on one side, they supported Jiraiya and headed towards the village’s hospital.
Jiraiya’s injuries were not severe but not light either. Tsunade and Orochimaru assisted Jiraiya on the way, not daring to move too fast. It took nearly half an hour to reach the hospital.
Entering the hospital, Tsunade skillfully arranged a ward for Jiraiya and found a physician.
“Lie down and rest well; we’re leaving first.” Standing by the bedside, Tsunade put her hands on her hips and admonished Jiraiya.
“I got it.” With the upper part of his body wrapped in bandages, Jiraiya lay on the hospital bed, answering with a face full of bitterness.
Orochimaru didn’t speak. After looking at Jiraiya, he followed Tsunade out of the ward.
Leaving the ward, exiting the hospital, Tsunade and Orochimaru walked side by side.
While walking, Tsunade was contemplating in her mind how to approach Orochimaru and talk to him about Kizaru wanting to become her disciple.
Just as Tsunade was thinking, Orochimaru took the initiative to speak.
“I heard your conversation with Kizaru at the training ground. You want to take him as your disciple.”
Tsunade stopped her steps, turned to look at Orochimaru beside her.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, Tsunade, with her outgoing and straightforward personality, didn’t hesitate but admitted openly.
“Yes, I appreciate that little guy. His physical talent is also suitable for my Art of Monstrous Strength.”
Hearing Tsunade’s answer, Orochimaru fell silent for a while. After witnessing the battle between Jiraiya and Kizaru, he also admired the little guy Kizaru. Kizaru was a true genius!
This was Orochimaru’s evaluation of Kizaru.
After seeing the strength and talent displayed by six-year-old Kizaru, Orochimaru felt a strong pressure in his heart and at the same time a bit of joy.
Who wouldn’t want to become the teacher of a top-notch genius?
Orochimaru was willing and very much looking forward to becoming Kizaru’s teacher.
But after the conversation between Tsunade and Kizaru on the training ground, Orochimaru hesitated.
On one side was his close friend of many years, and on the other was the disciple he admired. After hesitating for a while, Orochimaru made a difficult decision.
“I will go persuade Sarutobi-sensei.” Orochimaru spoke.
“Orochimaru, thanks!” Tsunade patted Orochimaru’s shoulder, smiling. “I won’t stand on ceremony; I’ll go find the old man and settle things now.”
With a faint smile, Orochimaru said, “You are really impatient, Tsunade!”
“Rarely encounter such an outstanding kid; I must take him as my disciple.”
Saying this, Tsunade directly grabbed Orochimaru’s arm and ran towards the direction of the Hokage Building.
In the Hokage Building, in the Hokage’s office, Hiruzen, who had just finished dealing with documents, was enjoying the wonderful scenery of the village through a crystal ball, allowing his exhausted body and spirit to relax a little.
“Heh!”
The charming scenery captivated Hiruzen’s interest as he gazed enthusiastically into the crystal ball.
“Bang!”
Just as Hiruzen was engrossed in watching the crystal ball, the office’s main door was forcefully pushed open.
Without looking, Hiruzen already knew who the visitor was. He skillfully picked up the documents on the table, covering the crystal ball, then turned to look at the entrance.
The one who impolitely pushed open the door to the Hokage’s office was Tsunade, and only she would do such a thing.
Accompanied by Orochimaru, Tsunade entered the office. Looking at the slightly chaotic documents on the table, she guessed what her teacher had been doing earlier.
If it were any other day, Tsunade would naturally scold her unscrupulous teacher properly.
But today, there was something she needed to ask the old man for, so Tsunade directly ignored the mess on the table. With Orochimaru in tow, she walked to the desk, skillfully pulled out a chair, and sat down.
“Orochimaru, Tsunade! Do you have something to discuss?” Hiruzen looked at his two disciples, revealing a gentle smile.
“Old man, I’m taking that brat Kizaru as my disciple from now on.” Leaning on the table with one hand, Tsunade tilted forward, addressing Hiruzen.
Hearing Tsunade’s request, Hiruzen felt some confusion. He looked towards Orochimaru, wanting to know the reason.
“Orochimaru and I have already discussed it. He’s giving the disciple to me.” Tsunade noticed Hiruzen’s actions and continued explaining.
Taking a deep breath, Hiruzen leaned back in his chair, picked up the tea cup on the table, and looked at his two disciples. His gaze moved from left to right, finally settling on Tsunade.
“Don’t be in such a hurry; you still have to let me know the reason!” Hiruzen smiled and said.
“Jiraiya had a spar with that little brat. He got beaten and sent to the hospital. That kid is strong, and I like him!” Tsunade explained.
“Cough, cough!” Hiruzen, who was drinking tea, was startled by Tsunade’s words. His usually steady hand trembled for a moment, and he was choked by the tea, causing him to cough.
Quickly placing the tea cup back on the table, he patted the tea stains off his body. Hiruzen, with an expression of disbelief, looked at the silent Orochimaru.
Understanding his disciple very well, although Jiraiya was not as well-known as Tsunade and Orochimaru, he was also a talented individual. After so many years of cultivation, he had already taken on the form of a strong individual, and he could be considered a half-level elite.
Such a young powerhouse was defeated by the six-year-old Kizaru, and even sent to the hospital. Hiruzen found it difficult to accept.
