After busying himself for a while, Tsunade finally finished what she was doing and handed a bottle of potion to Kenji.
"This is my special antidote. Just drink some if you get poisoned. I don't ask anything else of you. Just come back safe. Remember, be careful."
Looking at the concerned expression on Tsunade's face, Kenji nodded heavily.
"Don't worry, Sensei. I definitely won't let you down."
Tsunade nodded, then suddenly said, "Close your eyes."
Kenji immediately closed his eyes, and then he felt something cold and smooth being placed around his neck.
Just as he was about to open his eyes to see what it was, Tsunade continued, "You can't open your eyes yet."
Then, Kenji felt a warm and gentle touch on his forehead.
After leaving a light mark on Kenji's forehead, Tsunade said in a deliberately casual tone,
"This necklace was left to me by my grandfather. I'm giving it to you now, hoping it will bring you good luck. Oh, and that was just to give you some encouragement, nothing else. Don't get the wrong idea."
Looking at Tsunade, who was blushing slightly, Kenji stepped forward and gave her a big hug, then whispered,
"Sensei, I really like you."
Hearing this, Tsunade's body trembled involuntarily. However, there was no other reaction for a long time.
After a good while, Tsunade broke free from Kenji's embrace.
"Alright, I have other work to do, so don't get in my way here."
Tsunade didn't respond to Kenji's words that sounded like a confession, but she didn't reject them either, instead choosing to leave this trouble for her future self.
This result was enough for Kenji for now. After all, there was still a long time to come.
Outside the Konoha camp, Kenji, who had packed up, met his two teammates for this mission:
Sakumo, who had a calm and collected expression, and Minato Namikaze, whose face was a mix of excitement and nervousness.
Minato stepped forward and bowed to Kenji sincerely, thanking him:
"Thank you for your recommendation, Kenji. I will do my best to complete this mission."
Kenji reached out and patted Minato's shoulder, but didn't say anything more.
Then, under the cover of darkness, the three of them quietly left the camp.
Sakumo said as they traveled:
"According to intelligence, the leader of the Suna ninja team that invaded Konoha is a powerful puppet master, and his identity is very high. So, if we can capture him alive, try to capture him alive."
Minato listened carefully to every word that White Fang said.
Kenji, on the other hand, asked, "There are only three of us. It seems a bit difficult to capture them alive."
Hearing this, White Fang responded without thinking,
"Then leave them all in Konoha."
White Fang's tone revealed a chilling, murderous intent.
About two hours later, Sakumo suddenly stopped and used his eyes to signal to Kenji and Minato Namikaze that he had found the target.
Kenji and Minato immediately stopped and didn't dare to make any more noise.
"The mission targets have appeared. There are twelve ninjas: five Jonin, two of whom are puppet masters, and the rest are Chunin."
After saying this, Sakumo looked at Kenji and Minato.
"I'll take care of the strongest puppet master."
Kenji spoke first.
White Fang nodded, then continued, "In that case, I'll take care of the remaining four Jonin. Minato, can you handle those Chunin?"
Minato nodded, responding firmly, "I guarantee to complete the mission."
Then, White Fang drew his short sword and quietly approached the group of Suna ninjas like a ghost.
"I wonder if Sasori will blame us. We're leaving without saying goodbye again."
Sasori's father suddenly said, looking at the campfire in front of him.
"Sasori is a very understanding child. He should understand us. I just wonder when this war will end."
A gentle-looking female ninja next to him said with emotion. She was Sasori's mother.
Just then, a cold voice suddenly interjected.
"Wasn't this war started by you, Suna ninjas?"
As the words fell, a white light flashed, and the head of a Suna Jonin instantly flew up.
This sudden scene caused the Suna ninja team to fall into chaos.
However, all of the Suna ninjas who had been sent to invade were experienced veterans, so they quickly calmed down.
They all took out their weapons and looked at White Fang in front of them warily.
"You're Konoha's White Fang? It seems we were being watched all along."
Sasori's father said with a grim expression.
At this moment, Kenji and Minato also slowly walked out.
"Hey, old man, don't look at White Fang. Your opponent is me."
Kenji pointed at Sasori's father with his middle finger, responding in a flippant tone.
"Heh, a brat who still smells of milk dares to provoke me? Then I'll kill you first, and then deal with White Fang. I want to see if the so-called Konoha White Fang is as amazing as they say."
Sasori's father unrolled a scroll, and ten puppets suddenly emerged from the scroll.
The weapons held by these puppets were different: some with knives, some with swords, and even some with scythes. All kinds of strange weapons.
At this moment, White Fang and Minato Namikaze were also entangled with their respective opponents.
And Kenji directly summoned Charizard.
Looking at Charizard in front of him, Sasori's father's relaxed expression suddenly became serious.
Because he felt a deadly threat from Charizard.
So, he controlled the puppets in his hand, directly surrounding Charizard in a circle.
"Charizard, use Flamethrower!"
Under Kenji's command, Charizard opened its mouth and spat out a scorching flame.
The temperature was so high that it directly melted one of the puppets. Even the surrounding temperature rose several degrees.
"This summoning beast's Fire Release is so terrifying."
Sasori's father muttered with a grim expression, then urged the puppets to distance themselves from Charizard.
For puppet masters, the most feared enemies were taijutsu-type ninjas. Because these kinds of ninjas could easily destroy puppets with taijutsu.
And now, Charizard's destructive power to puppets was even greater than that of taijutsu-type ninjas.
