#89 - Chapter 89 Naruto vs Shizune Surprised Tsunade

Tsunade and Orochimaru quickly concluded their negotiations.

Orochimaru used his blood to control Tsunade, giving her a week to consider, after which the four of them left in pairs.

Naruto followed Tsunade, preventing her from running off and getting lost.

Although Jiraiya had found Tsunade in a bar in the original story, who knew if he could find her this time?

He was doing this just in case...

As if Naruto had guessed correctly, Tsunade and Shizune did not head towards the bar in Tanabata Street, but instead left into an empty alley.

After walking for a while, Tsunade and Shizune suddenly stopped.

"Come out, how long are you going to follow us?" Tsunade said suddenly.

They found me?

Naruto was a little surprised, and judging from their expressions, it seemed that Shizune had also noticed him.

Was his tracking technique really that bad?

Somewhat doubting himself, Naruto walked out from the shadows.

"Did Orochimaru send you to monitor us?"

Shizune sneered, "But isn't he looking down on us a bit too much, actually finding someone with such poor tracking skills to come?"

"......"

Did you have to be so blunt?

Thank you very much!

Naruto explained speechlessly, "I'm not Orochimaru's man, it's just that someone is looking for you, so I've been following you."

"Someone is looking for me?" Shizune looked puzzled.

Because Shizune spoke on behalf of Tsunade, Naruto's words seemed to be directed at Shizune.

"Not you, her!" Naruto pointed at Tsunade.

"Who else is looking for me?" Tsunade's expression was indifferent, and she looked to be in a very bad mood.

She had finally won a big prize today, and finally won a gamble, so why were bad things constantly happening?

"Jiraiya," Naruto said.

"Jiraiya?"

Tsunade was slightly taken aback, and then said, "I won't see him!"

"Sorry, you must see him," Naruto said calmly, blocking Tsunade and Shizune's departure.

"What did you say? Do you know who you're talking to?"

Shizune scolded, "This is the legendary Tsunade of the Konoha Sannin!"

"I know," Naruto's expression remained calm, as if he didn't take Tsunade seriously at all.

"Oh?"

Tsunade was a little surprised by the strength of Naruto's tone, and after looking Naruto up and down, she asked, "What is Jiraiya to you?"

"Strictly speaking, he is my teacher," Naruto said.

"Teacher? A disciple of Jiraiya, one of the Konoha Sannin?"

Before Tsunade could say anything, Shizune exclaimed in surprise.

"I'm a little curious, what kind of strength do you, as Jiraiya's disciple, have to dare to talk to me like this?"

Tsunade rubbed her wrist, seemingly preparing to attack Naruto, but Shizune stopped her.

"Tsunade-sama, let me do it, you haven't recovered from your battle with Orochimaru yet."

In fact, Orochimaru and Tsunade hadn't fought much just now, but the blood Orochimaru shed had greatly reduced Tsunade's combat power.

She was probably still suffering from some aftereffects.

Tsunade hesitated for a moment, and said, "Then you do it, be serious, this boy is, after all, Jiraiya's disciple!"

Shizune had been training with Tsunade since she was a child, and now she also had the strength of a Jonin.

In theory, dealing with Naruto, a kid who looked like he had just graduated from the Ninja Academy, was no problem.

However, the brilliant achievements of the Fourth Hokage, who was taught by Jiraiya, still made Tsunade vigilant.

"Don't worry, Tsunade-sama, I won't be careless!"

With that said, Shizune rushed towards Naruto at an extremely fast speed, holding a kunai!

But Naruto didn't move!

Just as the kunai in Shizune's hand was about to stab Naruto, Naruto suddenly reached out and grabbed Shizune's wrist.

"What?!"

Not only Shizune, but even Tsunade was shocked.

He was actually able to catch Shizune's attack?!

"Too slow."

As Naruto spoke, he slowly took the kunai from Shizune's hand and threw it on the ground.

"I have no intention of fighting you, you just need to come with me to see a familiar person."

"Hehe, a familiar person."

Tsunade smiled helplessly, "Today really is a good day to meet old acquaintances!"

"Since you've said so, then let's go meet him."

Naruto's strength in easily defeating Shizune conquered Tsunade, so she also gave up on fighting Naruto.

Compared to Orochimaru, her relationship with Jiraiya was not bad.

She had wanted to attack just now because Naruto's tone was too arrogant, and he didn't take her, one of the Konoha Sannin, seriously.

But now that Naruto had proved that he had the qualifications, Tsunade had nothing to be angry about.

"Let's go, where is Jiraiya?" Tsunade asked.

Naruto didn't speak, but summoned a messenger toad again.

Seeing that Naruto was able to summon the toads of Mount Myōboku, Tsunade completely believed in Naruto's identity.

This child was only twelve years old, right?

With such talent, was he the person that Jiraiya had been looking for?

"Take me to find Jiraiya," Naruto said to the messenger toad.

"Rest assured and follow me!"

With the messenger toad leading the way, Naruto and the others quickly found Jiraiya.

At this time, Jiraiya had just arrived near the Tanabata Tower with the messenger toad, and looked disappointed at the ruins all over the ground.

He was lamenting that he was one step late again, but he didn't expect to meet Naruto, who was bringing Tsunade back, around the corner!

"Jiraiya, is this the beautiful lady with a good figure and big boobs that you wanted to interview?"

"......"

As soon as the two met, before they could even be surprised, Naruto's words made the atmosphere awkward.

Looking at Tsunade's gloomy face, Jiraiya coughed twice and said, "Cough cough... I said I never said that, do you believe me? Tsunade!"

"If you came to me for such boring things, then I think you can get lost now, you idiot!"

Tsunade clenched her fists, looking like she would attack at any moment, which made Jiraiya panic a little.

"Listen to my explanation!"

Jiraiya quickly waved his hand and said, "Give me a chance, the bar! Yes, let's chat while drinking! Don't be so easily angry!"

"Hmph!"

Tsunade snorted, "You better explain clearly!"

"Absolutely! Absolutely!"

Jiraiya scratched his head, smiled awkwardly, and then glared at Naruto fiercely.

If he had known, he wouldn't have used such a clumsy excuse to trick Naruto into coming, anyway, as long as he gave money, Naruto would obediently follow him!

In the blink of an eye, the two arrived at a bar in Tanabata Street.

The four of them and a pig chatted while drinking small cups of sake.

"Speak, what did you come to me for?" Tsunade asked, taking a sip of sake, her face showing displeasure.

"Don't worry, how about we play a game of cards first? I learned a new card game from this kid, it's quite fun!" Jiraiya asked the proprietress for a deck of cards and said.

"A new card game?"
