Chiyo is a master of poison, and she is also a very skilled medical ninja. She was very confident in her poison until she was beaten to a pulp by another person in her own professional field.
On the one hand, she was confident, and on the other hand, she didn't want to poison the daimyo, so when she returned to the room again, she found nothing... It seemed that it was just an illusion before, and she even felt that she was a little too suspicious.
Chiyo and Tsunade are not of the same generation at all, but now it seems like they have had a round of confrontation in advance.
But Tsunade is not that amazing. After all, she is still very young. When they were in the ventilation duct, she just used some drugs she had cobbled together to temporarily suppress Chiyo's poison. After making sure that they were not exposed, she and Hanyu left Miyagi without anyone noticing.
The two of them stayed in Daimyo Castle temporarily. It was only then that Tsunade began to purchase medicinal herbs and tried to prepare an antidote to completely eliminate the poison.
"The Wind Country has territorial claims, which is known to everyone in the entire ninja world. After all, they are too poor, and the small and fertile countries around them are powerless. In comparison, everyone will have ambitions.
Even the Wind Country did not seek the land of the Fire Country, but instead sought the land of a small country. This can be regarded as a lesson learned from the last Ninja World War, and they are beginning to settle for second best. "
In a room of an inn in Daimyo Castle, Hanyu said this as he looked at Tsunade who was grinding herbs by the window.
"But Konoha can't just let the Wind Country's national strength grow," Tsunade said.
She stretched out a finger, pushed aside the herbs and checked them. Perhaps she felt that the particles were not fine enough, so she continued her movements.
"Yes, the key is that Rain Village is not as easy to deal with as Sand Village imagined."
Judging from Chiyo's words, Hanyu felt that Sand Village's understanding of Amegakure and even Salamander Hanzo seemed to be a little biased. Regardless of whether Sand Village can defeat Amegakure, it is almost impossible for it to eliminate Amegakure before Konoha and Iwagakure can react.
Use poison? Sorry, Chiyo is not the only one who can use poison. Does Sunagakure think that Amegakure will be as powerless as the Tiannin Village they dealt with before?
Even if Tsunade devoted herself to poison research, she would never be weaker than Chiyo, but she is a traditional medical ninja. Call her stubborn, narrow-minded, or rigid. In her mind, the technology for saving lives should not be used to kill people.
"So, Hanyu, do you think there will be wars in the future?"
Tsunade stopped what she was doing, turned around and asked Hanyu this, her expression was very serious at this time.
"Don't you have the answer in your own mind, Tsunade?"
Hanyu did not answer, he just asked back, because Tsunade naturally knew the answer.
There are many villages coexisting in the ninja world, and no one has absolute suppressive power, while each village has its own demands, so the world is full of contradictions... In a world full of contradictions, will there be no war?
War cannot solve any problem, but it will always disguise itself as the best and universal shortcut to solve any problem.
Human beings are such creatures that as long as they have violence in their hands, they will eventually resort to violence. This truth will never change until everything is destroyed.
Therefore, even if there was no such trip, Tsunade would know that the next Ninja World War would break out, the only difference was sooner or later.
After trying several times, Tsunade figured out what Chiyo's "unpreventable poison" was and quickly prepared the antidote.
The two men dispelled the poison from their bodies and stayed in the Kingdom of Wind for a while. Then they turned north, first entered the Kingdom of Earth, and then from the Kingdom of Earth into the Kingdom of Rain.
The situation in the Land of Earth is obviously better than that in the Land of Wind, so it does not give Hanyu such an extreme feeling, but Iwagakure is similar to Kumogakure, both of which are villages with offensive intentions, so it is hard to imagine that Iwagakure will be the passive sufferer of the war rather than the active instigator.
As for Amegakure... Although Konoha has always been paying attention to Amegakure, this is the "first time" that Hanyu has set foot in this country again since the end of the war.
In short, it's pretty bad here.
Hanyu even felt that it wouldn't take long for the Rain Country to become the kind of place he remembered, a place that would be difficult to adapt to without a gas mask.
So, is the world peaceful now? Of course it is, but how far is war? Maybe it is not far away.
"It has only been a short time since the last war ended. The villages have just caught their breath, but it seems that the next war is just around the corner. Three years? Five years? Anyway, this can be considered as tiptoe stepping on heels."
After several months of reconnaissance missions, Hanyu realized that the war he had imagined would eventually happen... He personally certainly didn't like fighting in a war, but war seemed to particularly like him.
Hanyu looked back at the jungle of the Rain Country. The two of them were about to return to Konoha. How long would Konoha's silence last? Perhaps Konoha sent such a mission to the Shadow Stream not just because the top leaders thought they were too idle, but because they had noticed something was wrong.
"Hanyu..." Tsunade wanted to comfort Hanyu and tell him not to be too pessimistic, but she couldn't say such words no matter what.
Hanyu seems to be a very lonely person.
"The world is full of twists and turns, and people like me are just passive bearers after all."
Hanyu actually works very hard, but even now, he still feels that he is just a person who goes with the flow.
But this seemed to make Tsunade a little angry, "Hanyu, a person will always have different evaluations of himself, that is only subjective rather than objective, but no matter what, a person should not always say "people like me", you to me... you, you are..."
She was a little slow to finish her words, but still looked up at Hanyu.
Hanyu...suddenly started laughing too.
He shouldn't have laughed, but it was so funny that he couldn't help it... He wasn't laughing at anything else, just at the Third Hokage.
It's natural. Since Jiraiya was given a bowl of chicken soup, the Third Hokage must have given it to Tsunade and Orochimaru as well.
But after laughing, he had to look Tsunade in the face and acknowledge her emotions - did she really think she was so free that she would hang around with him outside for several months?
Is Hanyu heartless?
Or is Tsunade heartless?
"It's like this, Tsunade. I have a friend who is not a bad person, but sometimes he is shy and not very good at expressing his emotions."
"Not bad? Which friend?"
"Well, I don't have any friends."
"…"
"Let me put it this way. I am actually like a tightly closed box. No matter whether the outside is rough or fine, gold, silver, jade, or worthless stone, the outside is always the outside, and the inside cannot be seen.
Even you can't see it.
But I can tell you that there is actually nothing inside the box. He...
The emptiness makes people feel uneasy.
However, it is not a problem if it remains empty.
The question is whether a precious orb should really be placed inside, and who knows what consequences such a change will lead to.
After all, once you put it in, you can never take it out again... the box won't be the same box anymore."
Hanyu seemed to say something, but it also seemed like he said nothing.
But Tsunade had already lowered her head at this time. She whispered, "Should you ask me such a question? Obviously, only you can answer it."
But no matter whether Hanyu can answer or not, the pearl is still the pearl, whether it is inside or outside the box - this is a fact that will make people blush and lower their heads.
And there is one thing that Hanyu cannot deny. He has gradually realized how important it is to have someone who can always listen to him quietly.
Even if he is a lonely person.
Even if he is a person who is used to being alone.
…
It's because he is a person who is used to being alone.
