Ninja Recruitment System - Chapter 406
The Secret Technique: Bug Sphere envelops the enemy in layers of kikaich?, draining all their chakra. If the target cannot escape, survival is virtually impossible. This is a killing move of the Aburame Clan!
After Aburame Chuunou used this technique on the five Xuanen members, Zhang Miao, who was hidden a hundred meters away in the dilapidated house, raised his eyebrows.
“Already dealt with them so quickly?”
In Zhang Miao’s perception, the chakras of the five Xuanen members vanished suddenly. Since they didn’t know space-time ninjutsu, this could only mean one thing—they were dead!
Zhang Miao didn’t believe the Xuanen members could use space-time ninjutsu, so his lips curved into a slight smile.
“Judging by the speed, Chuunou did a neat and clean job. Seems like calling him was the right decision.”
As Zhang Miao thought about this, Shizune, inside the house, had already put on rubber gloves, checked the surgical tools, and administered anesthesia to Karai, completing the pre-surgery preparations.
At this moment, an argument broke out.
The Fourth Raikage wanted Tsunade to perform the surgery to remove the explosive bugs from Karai, but Tsunade insisted that Shizune should be the one to do it. This infuriated the Raikage, who even threatened that if anything happened to Karai, he would not let Tsunade off.
However, under Tsunade’s insistence, Shizune took the lead. Seeing this, the hidden Zhang Miao narrowed his eyes.
“The Fourth Raikage probably doesn’t know that Tsunade has hemophobia, but this won’t stay hidden for long!”
Just as Zhang Miao expected, when Shizune’s scalpel cut into Karai’s chest, a bit of blood splashed onto Tsunade’s face!
Seeing Karai’s chest cut open and feeling the warm blood on her face, Tsunade’s eyes widened, her hands clenched, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Shizune fell silent again while the Fourth Raikage was stunned.
“What’s wrong with you, Tsunade?”
After a moment of shock, seeing Tsunade trembling and the blood on her face, the Raikage realized the situation and exclaimed with a look of understanding.
“Blood? I get it now, hemophobia. You’re afraid of blood. No wonder you wanted your subordinate to do the surgery!”
“Sorry, I need to get some fresh air outside!” Admitting to her fear, Tsunade turned and left, her face full of sadness.
Watching her leave, the Fourth Raikage frowned.
“For a medical ninja, this is a fatal flaw!”
Turning to Shizune, who was performing the surgery, he asked, “Tsunade is one of the Legendary Sannin along with Jiraiya and Orochimaru. What happened that she developed hemophobia?”
Before Shizune could answer, the Cloud Village medic, Amai, said, “I’d like to know as well. Though Tsunade is from another village, she is a goal for all medical ninja. But from what I saw of Tsunade’s expression earlier…”
Although Amai didn’t finish, Shizune understood and began to explain.
“Tsunade-sama once had two very important people in her life. One was her younger brother Nawaki, who died in the Third Great Ninja War the day after receiving a birthday present from her. The other was my uncle, Dan Kat?, who…”
As Shizune recounted these events, the Fourth Raikage understood that Tsunade’s hemophobia stemmed from the deaths of her loved ones.
Realizing this, he closed his eyes and sighed.
“Hmph, with Karai’s life in danger, I was desperate and turned to the wrong person. I almost placed our hopes on a medical ninja whose career has ended…”
“Tsunade-sama’s career has not ended!”
The Raikage’s words enraged Shizune, who angrily threw the explosive bug she had just removed from Karai’s body at his feet.
Seeing the blood-stained bug at his feet, the Raikage was visibly shocked. Amid his shock, Shizune calmly spoke to Amai, having completed the surgery.
“The surgery to remove the explosive bug is complete. The rest is up to you.”
Turning to face the Raikage, she looked him in the eyes without fear.
“Tsunade-sama’s ninjutsu is not over. I will inherit everything from her. Tsunade-sama must also regain her strength, even if it’s for my late uncle!”
With that, Shizune walked out, leaving the Raikage and Amai stunned.
Seeing this, Zhang Miao, still hidden, smiled.
“I didn’t expect the usually gentle ‘little maid’ Shizune to have such a side. It’s quite surprising, but she’s pretty cute when she’s angry. Should I consider making her one of my 108 wives?”
As Zhang Miao mused, an unexpected voice came from outside.
“Boss, all five members of the Xuanen are dead. I also found a commission from Sugi Village and 1.3 million ryo in silver notes on them. Why? Because I searched their bodies after killing them!”
Recognizing the familiar voice and speech pattern, Zhang Miao saw a young man kneeling at the door in a hooded sweatshirt and black sunglasses.
It was none other than Aburame Chuunou.
Seeing this, Zhang Miao was surprised.
“How did he find this place? And how did he know I was here?”
While Zhang Miao was surprised, the Raikage and Amai, busy treating Karai’s wounds, were equally stunned.
“What? The Xuanen are dead?”
To the Raikage and his team, the Xuanen, who had pursued them relentlessly and almost driven them to despair, were incredibly troublesome adversaries.
Yet now, this young ninja claimed to have killed them all, which seemed unbelievable.
What puzzled them most was who this “boss” Chuunou mentioned was.
With Zhang Miao hidden and Karai unconscious from the anesthesia, Amai immediately looked at the Raikage.
“Raikage-sama, who is this person?” To Amai, this ninja, capable of dealing with the Xuanen and reporting back, must be the Raikage’s subordinate.
But to his surprise, the Raikage frowned and said, “I don’t know this person. Why are you calling me boss?”
Hearing this, Amai was even more shocked. Before he could speak, a voice came from behind them.
“The boss he’s referring to is me!”
