99: Chapter 99 EmbarrassmentAt Konoha Hospital, Jiraiya lay paralyzed on the hospital bed, his body wrapped in bandages.Even the slightest movement caused his mouth to twitch in pain.
The female medical ninja pressed down on his ribs, and Jiraiya gasped, cold sweat pouring down his back.
"Gently.Ouch."
The female ninja continued taking notes on her own.
"There is blood in the lungs, a fractured rib, multiple soft tissue contusions, and a minor tear in the chakra meridian."
"That… red bean…"
Jiraiya took a breath and asked.
The ANBU member standing guard nearby replied in a low voice, "Lord Hokage, Anko is in the Land of Waves, and is being personally looked after by.Lady Tsunade."
Upon hearing "Tsunade," Jiraiya's tense shoulders quickly relaxed.
"Okay.it's fine with her."
As for that brat Naruto.with Tsunade watching over him, he shouldn't cause any major trouble.
I just feel a little uneasy.
————
On the other side of the hospital, a faint fragrance wafted in the air.
Hongdou lay on her back like a useless person, covered with a silk quilt.
The door creaked open.
Sakura brought in a basin of warm water, with a clean towel draped over the rim.
She walked to the bedside, put the basin down, and moved gently.
"Senior Red Bean, it's time to wash up."
Sakura's voice was soft and her smile was sweet.
But his eyes, like a small brush, quickly swept around Hongdou.
Tsk, quite pale, but lacking in color, looks sickly.
She's just so-so.She's a bit better than Ino, but compared to Lady Tsunade.ugh, what are you thinking?
Sakura muttered to herself as she wrung out the towel and lifted a corner of the blanket.
Hongdou felt a chill, and goosebumps rose up her spine.
She slightly raised her eyelids, glanced at the pink-haired, alluring girl in front of her, and was speechless.
The girl's eyes seemed respectful, but a faint hostility was almost overflowing from them.
"Thank you for your help."
Hongdou's voice was still a little hoarse and weak.
"It's no trouble at all."
Sakura smiled even sweeter, but her hands were not idle; she wiped Hongdou with a towel, applying considerable pressure.
Sakura paused for a moment.
This.is quite detailed.
She glanced down at herself instinctively; well, they were about the same.
When Naruto brought her back.
As soon as the thought crossed her mind, Sakura unconsciously moved the towel in her hand a few more steps, wiping Hongdou's smooth skin.
Hongdou froze.
Where is this girl going to wipe it?
She suddenly opened her eyes and met Sakura's gaze, which was still somewhat scrutinizing and hadn't been fully concealed.
Their eyes met.
It sounded like a few invisible sparks popping in the air.
Sakura casually looked away and continued cleaning, saying, "Senpai, you're in such good shape.Even with such a serious injury, your lines are still so beautiful."
Hongdou's lips twitched.
I'm weak from the injury!What does that have to do with staying healthy?
Also, your praise sounds really awkward to me.
After holding it in for a long time, she finally managed to squeeze out a sentence through gritted teeth: ".I am Jiraiya's lover."
Sakura's hands didn't stop, her voice soft and sweet: "Yes, I know.Jiraiya-sama is very worried about Senpai."
She secretly rolled her eyes.
Looking at Hongdou's cheeks, slightly flushed with shame and indignation, her inexplicable sense of competition intensified.
I'm becoming more and more meticulous with my hands, wishing I could clean every single pore.
Red Bean's cheeks flushed red as she closed her eyes and continued to play dead.
This place is unbearable!I need to catch my breath.

At this moment, only chaos and bloodshed remain on the border of the Land of Lightning.
"Cough.Pfft!"
Sasuke vomited another mouthful of blood, which splattered onto the ground covered with decaying leaves.
His lungs were like broken bellows, and every breath he took carried bits of blood and foam.
Jugo followed beside him, half of his body mutated.Every now and then, he had to reach out and use his remaining Sage Chakra to soothe Sasuke, lest Sasuke die.
Kisame suffered the most.
Even the shark-faced man couldn't laugh anymore.
His left arm hung at an odd angle, with bone fragments piercing through his flesh and swaying with his movements.
That was the result of enduring a furious "Lightning Blade" from the Raikage.
"Damn it.those bastards from Kumogakure.they're never going to stop."
Kisame spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva and glanced back.
Behind them, in the woods, shadowy figures lingered, still stubbornly clinging on.
They killed seven or eight more Kirigakure Jonin along the way, and they were nearing their limit.
"Whoosh whoosh-"
More than a dozen kunai with explosive tags attached came from behind.
"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"
Kisame, with his single arm, formed hand seals and barely managed to raise a wall of water to block it.
The blast wave knocked all three of them off balance.
"This can't go on."
Sasuke leaned on the Kusanagi sword, trembling slightly.
Just then, a terrifying chakra that sent chills down your spine approached from behind!
The three of them suddenly turned around.
In the distance, on the horizon, the Eight-Tailed Gyūki, now fully transformed into a tailed beast, had a black and red sphere containing destructive energy rapidly condensing and expanding in front of its enormous mouth!
"Tailed Beast Ball?"
Kisame's face turned from blue to white.
"Spiritual communication!"
Without thinking, Sasuke bit his thumb and slammed it to the ground!
A massive spirit array lit up, and white smoke billowed into the sky!
The massive, purple-scaled body of the serpent appeared, its enormous serpentine eyes filled with displeasure at being suddenly summoned.
"Sasuke, you brat."
Before they could finish speaking, the condensed Tailed Beast Ball, like a meteorite with a long, luminous tail, hurtled toward them!
The area is too large to avoid!
The ten thousand snakes only had time to let out a roar of shock and anger before instinctively coiling up their bodies and hiding their heads inside their snake bodies.
The next moment—
"boom!"
The world has lost its color!
The blinding white light swallowed up everything in sight.
The violent shockwave spread in a ring, engulfing the area.Trees and rocks within a radius of several hundred meters were completely leveled!The ground was scraped down by three feet!
When the light and dust dissipated slightly.
All that remained was a huge, charred crater.
The massive body of the monstrous snake had vanished without a trace, leaving only some black snakeskin remnants.
The elder snake of Ryūchi Cave, in a single encounter, suddenly vanished!
"Thump!"
Sasuke and Kisame were thrown back by the aftershocks of the explosion while running, crashing to the ground and vomiting blood again.
Jugo was immediately knocked unconscious by the shock.
Killer Bee materialized into human form and approached step by step.
"Yo!You idiot!That's enough!"
The illusory crimson octopus tentacles gathered chakra, preparing to deliver the final blow.
"Snap!"
A dark, enormous bear trap, covered in twisted sealing runes, suddenly sprang up from under the fallen leaves!
Killer Bee's pupils contracted; it was too late for him to back away!
"Clang!"
The enormous clamp, imbued with sealing magic, slammed shut like the sharp teeth of a crocodile!Sharp barbs instantly pierced through his calf muscles and embedded themselves firmly into the bone!
The sealing runes lit up instantly, and a powerful binding force spread upwards, almost simultaneously cutting off the chakra flow in the entire right leg!
"Well!"
Kirabi was in pain and lost his balance.
Almost simultaneously.
Deep in the jungle, in the shadow of a giant tree.
A uniquely shaped, elongated bullet, wreathed in spiraling air currents, hurtled through the air at a speed beyond the limits of visual perception!
The target is Killer Bee, who is out of balance and has his right leg bound!
Killer Bee only had time to hastily raise his arm, which was covered by the Tailed Beast's cloak, to block in front of him.
"puff--!"
The bullet pierced through the tailed beast's cloak without any resistance, cutting through the fat like a hot knife through butter, and plunged deep into his left shoulder blade!
A terrifying destructive force erupted instantly, blasting a bowl-sized hole in the back of his shoulder, spraying out a mixture of bone fragments and flesh!
Killer Bee was thrown backward through the air by this immense force.
"Compare!"
From the other side of the encirclement, Raikage leaped over and hugged his severely injured younger brother.Looking at the horrific wound and the strange clamp still tightly gripping his leg, his eyes turned red.
He suddenly looked up in the direction from which the bullet had come.
Deep in the woods, a gaunt figure could be vaguely seen, holding an exaggeratedly shaped, life-length barrel weapon, slowly rising up.
The figure seemed to glance in their direction, then flickered and quickly disappeared into the shadows without a trace.
"Lord Raikage!Should we pursue them or not?" A Cloud Village Jonin asked, unwilling to give up.
The Raikage looked at the unconscious Killer Bee in his arms, then at the three Akatsuki members who had taken the opportunity to scramble away and escape far away, his teeth grinding together.
"Cease the pursuit!"
The enemy escaped, the younger brother was seriously wounded, and Xi died.
A large number of Chunin and Jonin elites were killed.
He held the unconscious Killer Bee, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
Xiao.and that bastard who shot her in the back.
This feud is deadly!
