After dealing with the green Aoi, Sakura and Sasuke went straight to the end of Hong Taisha. As soon as they arrived at the end, Sakura saw the sullen faces of the Daimyo of the Tea Country and the head of the He family. On the contrary, the Wasabi family's ninja and the civilians watching on the side were all excited. A group of people threw Morino Ida high up as a hero, caught him, and threw him up again. Because Morino Ida did not change ships in the middle of the journey like in the animation, the rain ninja hired by the He family was also quickly dealt with by Team 7, and there was no delay at all during this period. Therefore, when Morino Ida reached the end, the He family's Fukusuke player was still sailing and had not had time to land on the island. Faced with such a huge gap between the two contestants, the daimyo had to accept the result of the bombing of the shrine even if he was reluctant.
After the four members of Team 7 spent the last night in the town, they boarded the ship back to Konoha.
"I really have to thank you this time."
Wasabi Chojiro was courteous and came to the port to see off Sakura and the others in person.
"No need to be so polite, and no need to thank.
Whether it is money or favors, we in Konoha have already received the corresponding rewards."
Sakura hinted that Tsunade's favor had been repaid, and the two would not owe each other anything in the future.
"Don't say that, go back and say hello to Tsunade for me."
Although Chojiro could hear the implicit meaning in Sakura's words, he was still unwilling to lose Tsunade as a friend.
"Since you and Master are old friends, if you have time, you should say hello to Master in person. Going around more can also enhance the relationship."
Sakura once again tactfully rejected Chojiro, which made him hit a soft nail.
Although the conversation between the two was full of hidden meanings, the minions who followed Chojiro were not aware of their verbal confrontation at all due to their limited skills.
But just because others couldn't hear it didn't mean Sasuke couldn't hear it. Seeing that Chojiro wanted to say something, Sasuke immediately interrupted him:
"Naruto!"
Sasuke's voice was not small, which scared Naruto who was bidding farewell to Date:
"What are you doing, bastard Sasuke!"
Although he didn't know what Sasuke was doing, Naruto still subconsciously responded.
"You'd better not get too close to Morino Date. You are a ninja of Konoha, and he is just a small minion of the Wasabi family. The status is too far apart.
If you want to make friends, open your eyes. Not everyone is worthy of making friends with Konoha ninjas."
Sasuke scolded Naruto loudly and pointedly, while glancing in the direction of Wasabi Chojiro.
Sasuke's intention is self-evident. He is reminding Chojiro to remember his identity. Tsunade, who has become the fifth Hokage, and Chojiro are already from two different worlds. Don't get too entangled.
Tsunade is no longer the gambler she used to be, but a gambler of high status.
"Ah~"
Looking at the unfriendly eyes of the minions around her, Sakura sighed. Although Sasuke did not make it clear, this method was still more straightforward. Even if the crowd around was dull, they could hear the meaning of his words.
"Damn it!"
But before the people of the Wasabi family around him could make trouble, Naruto took the lead and walked to Sasuke's side, staring at him angrily:
"Sasuke, you bastard, why do you look down on Ida!"
Sakura glanced at the angry Naruto and knew that he had regarded Ida as a friend just like in the animation.
Is this because the two people's new songs are compatible, or because of the convergence of the world line?
"Sasuke, I've said that outside of missions, it doesn't matter who Naruto wants to make friends with.
Besides, Ida was also a ninja of Konoha before."
Sakura seemed to reprimand Sasuke, but in fact she was giving him a way out.
Sasuke immediately understood, looked at Sakura gratefully, then his face turned cold and he said to Naruto:
"Sorry, I forgot that this guy was also a ninja before. If we consider him as a friend, he is barely qualified."
Just as Naruto was about to say something, a serious call came from the boat on the dock:
"You guys, why are you dawdling? Are you going back to the village?"
Then, a ninja in a black windbreaker walked down the deck and came to Sakura and the others. It was Ida's brother, Morino Ibiki.
"Sorry, I kept you waiting for so long.
Mr. Chojiro, we have to say goodbye after sending you thousands of miles away. We are leaving first."
Sakura could naturally see that Ibiki was
Xi was trying to save himself and others, and quickly dragged his three companions onto the boat.
Seeing this, Chojiro could only sigh with great emotion.
He knew that after this time, Tsunade no longer owed him anything, and it would be even more difficult to ask Tsunade for help in the future.
"Brother Ibiki--"
Just when Sakura and the others had just boarded the deck and had not had time to retract the anchor, Ida's voice suddenly sounded from the shore.
"I was wrong at the beginning--now I have found something to protect!
Even if I am no longer a ninja, I will become a man!"
Seeing his biological brother whom he had not seen for many years, Morino Ida cried out to Ibiki with tears in his eyes.
"I don't know what you are talking about. My brother Morino Ida, who betrayed Konoha, died two years ago."
Morino Ibiki did not look back, but just said coldly, and then smiled faintly with relief.
"Examiner Ibiki is really amazing."
Sasuke saw what Ibiki was thinking and sighed sincerely.
"What's wrong?
Didn't he just mean that he didn't forgive Ida?"
Naruto asked puzzled.
"Ibiki's words are a double entendre. He told Ida that the previous Morino Ida was dead and hoped that he could be reborn; he also hinted that the current Morino Ida was already a dead person in Konoha's files, so he didn't have to worry about his identity being traced by Konoha."
Sasuke answered Naruto's question.
"That's not all."
Sakura also added with a smile:
"Mr. Ibiki's words were not only to answer Date, but also to Chojiro.
He was telling Chojiro that Date's ninja identity had been cancelled, and he should not dream of reaching any deal with Konoha through Date. In the future, they would just be in a simple employment relationship.
At the same time, it also eliminated Chojiro's worries, allowing Chojiro to reuse Morino Date openly in the future, and Konoha would not pursue it."
"You little brats, you don't talk about others behind their backs, right!"
Morino Ibiki's forehead burst out a vein, and he glared at a few people.
Ibiki just pretended to be cool and was criticized by Sakura and the others. Doesn't Ibiki have any face?
"So, Ibiki is also a good brother who cares about his younger brother."
Karin continued.
"Asshole, are you going to continue!"
Ibiki couldn't hold it anymore and cursed directly.
Sakura shrugged indifferently.
We are all special jonin, no one is more noble than the other, why should we listen to you?
You are so fierce to others, does his master Hokage know?
"Can you guys show some respect to your seniors!"
Although Morino Ibiki looks very oppressive, his real personality is also funny, and he soon quarreled with Team 7.
Just like that, the ship set sail amid the noise.
......
In the cabin, Sakura played with the Thunder God Sword in her hand, and behind her, a strand of long hair that was purple and pink because of the chakra was wrapped around a pencil, writing the mission report line by line in the notebook.
"So that's it. The Thunder God Sword is not a lightsaber, nor is it an ordinary ninja sword."
After some research, Sakura finally figured out the principle of the Thunder God Sword:
The hilt absorbs the user's chakra and converts it into high-quality lightning chakra attached to the blade. The blade made of special materials will become as sharp as a knife after being attached with lightning chakra.
In order to reduce the consumption of chakra, the blade is also sealed in the hilt when not in combat.
To put it bluntly, it is a switchblade with a more complicated principle and a better appearance.
As Sakura injected chakra, the golden blade of the Thunder God Sword reappeared.
"With my current chakra, can it be used for a maximum of five minutes?"
Sakura muttered to herself.
Although this knife consumes a lot of energy, it is better than Chidori and Rasengan.
Anyway, it is a ninja tool made by the second generation of Hokage. Sakura feels that this Thunder God Sword should belong to her Hokage master.
As Tsunade's direct disciple, Tsunade should not refuse to borrow him to play with for a few years.
