Naruto: The whole world knows I am the savior

Chapter 30 Inquiry

"The intelligence was a bit off. The target is very skilled with shuriken, and the capture process alerted the Konoha ninja. I'm going to deal with the Konoha ninja."

After Itachi finished speaking, he glanced coldly at Orochimaru, as if to say with his eyes that it was all Orochimaru's fault.

Although he was a little lax, Orochimaru was still the main one who took action to capture him, so Itachi Uchiha had the confidence to say that.

"The intelligence was indeed somewhat flawed. Konoha values ​​Shirakumo Yosuke highly; he is now Tsunade's disciple. They almost succeeded just now, but Tsunade arrived too quickly."

Orochimaru said in a hoarse voice, but he didn't think so at all. He blamed Tsunade for the failure, since no one knew when he met her.

"Yosuke Shirakumo has already signed a summoning contract with Shikkotsu Forest and summoned a slug. Unless I immediately summon the Ryuchi Cave Orochi, it will definitely take some time. But that would alert the Third Hokage, and then none of us would be able to escape."

Xiao Nan felt that neither of their excuses were very good, so she waited in silence for a while.

Not long after, White Zetsu emerged from the trees nearby and said to Konan and the others, "The target has been sent to the hospital. It's under lockdown now, and we can't get any information from there."

Even if it is skilled in stealth, it will not go for the enemy's main force. Moreover, there are so many sensory ninjas in Konoha that it could be discovered if it is not careful.

"Let's go back first and report the mission failure to Payne. Payne will have to decide what to do next."

Konan spoke up, saying that it was almost impossible to continue the mission now. Konoha would definitely impose martial law and search for their whereabouts; given Konoha's tracking capabilities, even leaving the Land of Fire wouldn't be very safe.

"Zetsu, we need to go back now. If the Konoha ninjas catch up with us, let us know."

After saying that, Konan, Itachi Uchiha, and Kisame headed towards the Land of Fire. However, Orochimaru did not follow; he was going back to his base.

The Akatsuki members only come together when they are on a mission. Kisame and Itachi are returning to the Land of Fire together because there is a new mission coming up.

Konoha

Upon learning that his daughter had encountered Orochimaru, Yamanaka Inoichi rushed home.

Upon seeing Ino, Yamanaka Inoichi asked, "Ino, how are you? Are you alright?"

"Dad, I'm okay."

Ino Yamanaka shook her head, but then asked anxiously, "Father, how is Yosuke? He lured the enemy away to save me."

"I understand, Ino. Don't worry, Yosuke Shirakumo will be fine."

Yamanaka Inoichi comforted him, saying that he had heard about Shirakumo Yosuke's situation before returning, and that it seemed that Tsunade-sama had sent him to Konoha Hospital.

However, it's quite remarkable that this young man thought of sending his daughter away first after encountering Orochimaru.

But the next second, Yamanaka Inoichi suddenly remembered that Hakuun Yosuke seemed to have feelings for Orochimaru. The last time the Third Hokage ordered that Hakuun Yosuke be forbidden from being taught ninjutsu was because he revealed that Orochimaru didn't have any bad intentions towards him.

This is a bit odd. One of the ninjas who infiltrated Konoha this time was Orochimaru, and Hakukumo Yosuke had escaped from Orochimaru's clutches for a while.

"Dad? What are you thinking about?"

Ino called several times before she finally snapped Ino out of his reverie. Seeing Ino looking at her, Ino asked, "Can I go see Yosuke-kun now?"

"Not now. You should stay home and rest, Ino."

Yamanaka Inoichi shook his head. There must be many Anbu members at Konoha Hospital, and Lady Tsunade is still there. Ino doesn't need to go and join the fun.

Moreover, he now had doubts in his mind: how could a boy who had just enrolled and hadn't learned any ninjutsu escape from the Sannin? Did Orochimaru really hold back against Hakuun Yosuke?

Yamanaka Inoichi shook his head, then told his wife to stay with Ino while he went to the Hokage Building; several powerful rogue ninja had infiltrated Konoha, and if it weren't for his daughter, he would be investigating them with the Anbu right now.

Konoha Hospital

After taking Shiraku Yosuke into the operating room, Tsunade anxiously began to examine him; when she carried the little brat back earlier, she even felt like she was holding a heater, the little brat's body temperature was too high.

Tsunade didn't notice either; she was extremely worried and anxious, her only thought being to heal Shirokumo Yosuke as soon as possible.

"That bastard Orochimaru, what exactly did he inject into that brat?"

Tsunade quickly checked him and found a needle mark on Shiraku Yosuke's body, and that a little bit of flesh and blood was missing, but she had already healed all the external injuries.

"First, stabilize the body's imbalances and control body temperature."

Tsunade quickly devised a treatment plan and then used her Palm Healing Technique to treat Hakuun Yosuke.

Thanks to Tsunade's meticulous treatment, Hakuun Yosuke's symptoms quickly stabilized, and his other injuries were completely healed.

However, Tsunade still couldn't let go of what Orochimaru had injected into Hakuun Yosuke, so she took out a small piece of flesh and blood tissue to have it tested.

"Jingyin, this kid might wake up in a little while. You stay here and keep an eye on him. I'm going out for a bit."

After giving her instructions, Tsunade walked out of the emergency room.

However, just as she stepped out, two ANBU members approached her and said, "Lady Tsunade, the Third Hokage wants you to go see him immediately."

"...that old man."

Tsunade knew that Hiruzen Sarutobi had probably called her to ask for information, but she was still worried about Yosuke Shirakumo, so she asked, "What should we do here?"

The Anbu member immediately replied, "Lady Tsunade, please rest assured, there are already two Anbu squads near Konoha Hospital."

"Okay, I understand."

Tsunade had no choice but to go to the Hokage Building first.

When she arrived at the Hokage's office, Kakashi had just returned. They had chased him out of Konoha and searched for a while, but couldn't catch up, so they came back.

"Lady Tsunade."

Tsunade greeted him, asking, "Kakashi, did you manage to catch up with Orochimaru?"

Kakashi shook his head after hearing this and said, "They escaped very quickly. I didn't bring many people with me, so I came back."

"Then let's go inside and talk to the old man."

After saying that, Tsunade pushed open the door and went inside. Once inside, she found that Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, Homura Mitokado, Shikaku Nara, and others had already arrived.

"Tsunade, Kakashi, you've arrived."

Once everyone had arrived, Hiruzen Sarutobi extinguished his pipe and set it aside, his expression turning serious. He said, "As you all know, four people recently invaded Konoha. Two of them are Konoha's rogue ninja, Orochimaru and Itachi Uchiha, and the third is Kisame Hoshigaki, a rogue ninja from Kirigakure. The identity of the last person is still being confirmed."

"Their target was Shirakumo Yosuke, but they failed this time."

Everyone else in the room listened quietly as Hiruzen Sarutobi recounted the incident, and no one interrupted.

After Hiruzen Sarutobi finished speaking, he turned to Tsunade and asked, "Tsunade, according to the Anbu's report, Yosuke Shirakumo summoned a slug using the Summoning Jutsu while evading Orochimaru's pursuit. Did you teach him that?"
