Upon hearing Jiraiya's words, Tsunade shot him a glare. Her mood had been sour since earlier.
She had initially thought that Yoruha would take her side, but unexpectedly, he didn't. Instead, he accused her of disrespecting the two Hokage advisors.
Although she now realized she had indeed been sowhat rude earlier, Yoruha not siding with her was still frustrating.
After all, Yoruha was going to be her bodyguard in the future. Was he going to turn into soone like Shizune, constantly nagging in her ear? The thought annoyed Tsunade.
Since Yoruha was her junior, she couldn't vent her anger directly at him, so she naturally directed it at Jiraiya instead.
Feeling Tsunade's glare, Jiraiya's scalp tingled. Knowing her temperant, he quickly changed the subject, "How's Kakashi doing?" Only then did Tsunade let him off the hook.
She looked at Kakashi and nodded, saying, "It's indeed a high-level genjutsu, to have kept him unconscious for so long."
Yoruha, observing the unconscious Kakashi, fell silent as well. He could sense how powerful the genjutsu affecting Kakashi was.
"Uchiha Itachi is truly formidable. The genjutsu of the Mangekyō Sharingan is this strong. How terrifying must the Infinite Tsukuyomi be?"
Yoruha wasn't sure if he could withstand such a level of genjutsu.
He knew that during the Fourth Shinobi World War, even Sasuke, with his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, couldn't resist the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
They had to use Susanoo to block the light to avoid being caught.
"However, resisting this kind of genjutsu directly might not be realistic, but there are other ways to avoid it." Yoruha thought to himself, "Absorbing light is all it takes; the space orb should be able to handle it." With this thought, Yoruha regained his confidence.
Yoruha's space orb could not only draw energy from space but also absorb various substances, including light.
Since Tsukuyomi required visual contact to activate, as long as Yoruha wasn't caught off guard, the genjutsu wouldn't affect him.
"I should be able to heal Kakashi's condition too," Yoruha considered as he looked at Kakashi. Although his dical ninjutsu wasn't on Tsunade's level, he was confident he could dispel Kakashi's genjutsu.
Dispelling Kakashi's genjutsu wasn't difficult; it was similar to breaking a regular genjutsu by injecting chakra. The only difference was that it required extrely precise chakra control. The dical ninjas at Konoha Hospital couldn't do it, but Yoruha could.
Of course, with Tsunade present, there was no need for him to act. As expected, for Tsunade, dispelling Kakashi's genjutsu was a simple task. All it took was injecting chakra.
Soon, Kakashi regained consciousness. The mont he opened his eyes, he saw Yoruha leaning against the windowsill and Jiraiya. "Y-Yoruha, you're back?"
Kakashi's tone was sowhat excited, and he seed to breathe a sigh of relief. Ever since he was caught in the genjutsu, he had been worried that sothing might happen to Yoruha outside.
After all, it was Yoruha's first ti going out on a mission alone, and who knew what dangers he might encounter. Although he had great faith in Yoruha's abilities, during the Chūnin Exams, Kakashi had encountered too many challenges and setbacks, which made him think of Yoruha.
After all, Yoruha had very few missions under his belt and lacked experience. Who knows what could happen if he were to be assassinated?
Even the Fourth Kazekage was assassinated by Orochimaru. Seeing Yoruha return safely, Kakashi finally felt at ease. Yoruha smiled and said, "Kakashi-sensei, I heard from Naruto that Uchiha Itachi is indeed very strong."
Kakashi paused for a mont, thinking of Uchiha Itachi, and nodded gravely, "Yes, extrely strong." "But I believe that aside from his Mangekyō Sharingan, he wouldn't be a match for you." This was Kakashi's conclusion after having faced Uchiha Itachi.
Yoruha didn't argue. He knew Itachi's strength and agreed with Kakashi's assessnt. Even Itachi's Tsukuyomi posed no real threat to Yoruha.
Since it required eye contact to activate, all Yoruha needed to do was avoid looking into Itachi's eyes or absorb the light reflected from them. However, Itachi had another troubleso genjutsu, Izanami.
That was a genjutsu that didn't require eye contact to activate. It was the only genjutsu from Itachi that could potentially threaten Yoruha. Yoruha wasn't entirely confident in facing that technique.
Tsunade stood to the side, arms crossed, and said, "But if you're caught in a genjutsu, no matter how strong your ninjutsu is, it's useless." Kakashi nodded, "Yes, very troubleso." Jiraiya sighed, "Compared to our generation, your generation is much stronger."
In Jiraiya's ti, the strongest opponent was Hanzo. Hanzo's strength today might not even match any of the Sannin. Yet back then, he was revered as a demigod of the ninja world.
Now, if Yoruha were to face Hanzo, he could probably suppress him, maybe even crush him. The only threat Hanzo posed to Yoruha was his poison. But Yoruha was skilled in space-ti ninjutsu, even faster than Minato.
In front of Yoruha, Hanzo wouldn't even have a chance to release his poison. Besides Yoruha, there was Uchiha Itachi, who at 13 had annihilated the entire Uchiha clan and awakened the mystical Mangekyō Sharingan.
Then there were Naruto and Sasuke, who at just 12 years old already possessed the strength of a Jōnin, and not just any Jōnin.
Sasuke now was definitely stronger than Kakashi was at the sa age. As for Naruto, while he lacked experience, he could summon Gamabunta, making his combat power no less than Kakashi's at the sa age.
Jiraiya felt that this generation was incredibly strong, absurdly so.
Even without Yoruha, Konoha was fortunate to have Naruto and Sasuke. Their strength was enough to hold their own on the battlefield. Kakashi looked at Yoruha and asked, "Did you encounter any danger on this mission?"
Yoruha thought for a mont and replied, "No, but the mission changed. It was originally just an escort mission, but it turned into helping soone restore their country, which is why it took so long."
Kakashi was taken aback, "What happened?" Tsunade and Jiraiya also looked at Yoruha, as he hadn't ntioned this before.
"The celebrity I was escorting was actually the princess of the Land of Snow, Kakashi-sensei, you should know her." Kakashi thought for a mont and rembered. "Roga Koyuki?"
Yoruha nodded. "So this ti I encountered four ninjas, and their chakra armor was quite interesting." "But their foundation was lacking."
Kakashi said, "You defeated Roga Nadare?" Back then, Kakashi was completely suppressed by Roga Nadare. He knew how strong Roga Nadare was.
Yoruha nodded, "Yes." Kakashi chuckled, "Of course, with your strength, defeating Roga Nadare is not surprising at all."
