Chapter 114 - Pain [1] (1/2)

After the bodies of the two Elders were found, chaos spread through Konohagakure as not only hundreds of villagers died but also the two Elders. It was a state of complete chaos and Tsunade was having a huge headache.

But in the depths of her heart, a seed of happiness started to blossom. These two Elders could be considered Konoha's cancer, she didn't really care about their deaths, the only important thing was to calm down the Villagers.

Looking towards seemingly nowhere, Tsunade muttered: ''Call Raion and Iriko over, I'll require their assistance in this case.'' [1]

A few moments later, two female ANBU appeared in front of Tsunade. One has long purple-colored hair using a lion-like mask and the other has a medium-sized pink-colored hair using a slug-like mask.

''Yes, Lady Tsunade?'' They said in unison, as if they had trained to say in sync beforehand.

Tsunade looked towards them for a few seconds before waving her hands as a scroll disappeared in a puff of smoke, the mutilated bodies of Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado appeared. The two ANBU flinched lightly because such a scene was rare even for them.

''Right now, I'm busy dealing with paperwork and thinking of ways to calm down the Villages and the Village's higher-ups. This is really complicated, sigh... Anyway, I require both of you to analyze what caused these wounds and the complexity of what caused it.'' Tsunade said while massaging her forehead as if to calm down her headache while sighing lightly.

'Raion' and 'Iriko' looked towards each other before nodding and picking the dead bodies. In an instant, both of them flickered away under Tsunade's eyes: 'This can be considered a test to the two of you. If you can identify the kind of wound and what happened on their insides, you'll have passed it, Hinata and Sakura.'

'There'll have a Meeting where the Six Kages will talk about Akatsuki really soon, their threat has arrived to a level where it requires all Villages to unite.' Tsunade thought with narrowed eyes.

At this moment, an ANBU flickered inside the Hokage's Office with a toad at the top of his/her head. After leaving the Toad here, the ANBU left as Tsunade said while raising her eyebrows: ''Hm? What brings you here, Fukasaku?''

Fukasaku looked towards Tsunade before saying: ''I didn't come here to take much time, Naruto asked me to deliver you this.''

Soon after Fukasaku said this, he handed a letter to Tsunade. Then, he disappeared with a puff of smoke.

Opening the letter, she started to read 'Yo, Hag Sannin! It's me, your dear Naruto!'

'First of all... Before this news are spread throughout the world, I felt a need to say this to you. Ero Sennin died.' Reading that part, Tsunade felt her heart crumbling as if a huge weight fell upon them.

However, she felt relieved after reading the next part: 'However, you mustn't worry! These are fake news, yes. Basically, there are enemies which will require Ero Sennin to infiltrate with another identity, to that, he faked his death by fighting against Pain, the leader of Akatsuki.'

'Overall, don't need to worry about that, soon enough, he'll visit you. Don't forget to give him tons of kisses, I know you like him, heh.' Tsunade's fist clenched so hard that cracking sounds were heard.

'Don't talk about this to anyone, I'll be watching you! From the Nanadaime Uzukage, Naruto Uzumaki.' After she finished reading, it was as if supernatural beings interfered as the paper burned to nothingness.

Meanwhile, the one that made her feel like punching the air in anger was walking in a seemingly aimless manner. Naruto suddenly sneezed while thinking to himself with a confused expression: 'Is someone wishing me to die? Nah, that's not possible.'
