Naruto: Becoming the Soul King Chapter 136 137: Really?

Now Tsunade's ho is considered Seiryū's second ho, and he has a room of his own.

Even when he is not injured, Seiryū spends quite a lot of ti at Tsunade's ho.

Those who did not know better might think Seiryū was being kept by Tsunade.

Well, it is only because Seiryū is still young. Otherwise, people really would suspect such a thing.

After all, Tsunade is a single, beautiful woman, and with her special status in Konoha, many people are very concerned about her marriage prospects.

Although it was his second ho, his real ho was still with the Yūhi Family.

After recuperating at Tsunade's ho for a week, Seiryū also returned to the Yūhi Family.

In his room, Seiryū looked at his dical books and could not help but sigh. "Without the Shadow Clone Jutsu, the efficiency is indeed too low."

Though he was mostly just keeping up appearances.

But right now, Seiryū had nothing else to do. The injuries made it impossible for him to train.

He could only find things to pass the ti.

These dical books were ant as "preparation" for "developing" new dical Ninjutsu, but they were indeed very helpful to Seiryū's dical Ninjutsu.

He did not find reading them boring.

He just felt the efficiency was too low.

He sowhat missed the Shadow Clone Jutsu.

At that mont, Kurenai pushed open the door to Seiryū's room, poking her little head in. "Seiryū, Seiryū, Rin is here to visit you. Are you still busy?"

"Rin?"

Seiryū was a bit surprised. He closed his dical book, stood up, and walked toward Kurenai.

"Yeah, I ran into her on my way to buy groceries. When she found out you were injured, she wanted to co over and visit you."

Kurenai kept her head poked in as she explained to the approaching Seiryū.

"Rin really is very gentle."

Seiryū just smiled.

Rin was indeed a gentle young girl.

Kurenai pouted, a bit dissatisfied. "Tch, am I not gentle?"

Rubbing Kurenai's little head, her tied up ponytail swayed back and forth from the force. Seiryū shrugged. "You're gentle too."

"Heehee, glad you're sensible!"

Kurenai only refused to let him touch her head when she was angry with him.

Normally, she did not reject such intimate gestures from Seiryū and gave him a cute smile.

"What are we eating today?"

Seiryū asked, looking at Kurenai.

Today, Kurenai was wearing a set of red casual clothes.

It was similar to a short waisted kimono.

A white bow was tied at her waist, and the hem only reached her calves, revealing her crystal clear, white lower legs.

"What do you want to eat?"

Kurenai asked.

"Did you buy a lot of groceries? Then just make so everyday dishes. I'm not a picky eater."

Seiryū replied.

Then, seeing Kurenai's sowhat flushed face, Seiryū could not help but ask curiously. "What's wrong? Why is your face so red?"

"I is it?"

Kurenai touched her cheeks with both hands. They indeed felt a bit hot.

She stamred. "I ran back, so it's probably caused by the increased blood flow in my body, right?"

"Oh."

Seiryū did not suspect anything else and nodded. "Let's go, don't keep Rin waiting."

The two of them walked toward the living room.

In the living room.

Rin was sitting on the sofa and saw Seiryū and Kurenai approaching.

She quickly stood up, gave a polite greeting, and then looked at Seiryū with a concerned tone. "Seiryū, I heard you were injured. Are you okay now?"

"It's not a big problem, thanks for your concern, Rin."

Seiryū waved his hand and smiled. "Don't you have a mission today?"

"That's good then."

Rin gave a gentle smile and replied. "We are also heading out of the village for a mission in a few days, so Minato-sensei let us rest for a few days."

Speaking of missions outside the village, Kurenai still had so lingering fears, and her tone was very serious. "Rin, you must be careful when you go out on missions. Unexpected things might happen."

"The reason Seiryū got injured was that we encountered an S-rank Rogue Ninja from Takigakure. It was so dangerous back then!"

Even though several days had passed, thinking back to the situation then.

Kurenai was still a bit terrified.

That S-rank Rogue Ninja from Takigakure, the Immortal Ninja Kakuzu. Just the pressure and killing intent he emitted when performing Ninjutsu had put her under imnse pressure.

Even breathing had been very difficult.

"An S-rank Rogue Ninja!?"

Rin covered her small mouth in shock.

Rogue Ninjas also had different levels of strength.

To be called an S-rank Rogue Ninja, they must have definitely been one of the elite Ninjas of their village.

Seiryū and the others had encountered such a terrifying Ninja on their very first mission outside the village?

Wasn't that way too dangerous?

"Don't listen to Kurenai's nonsense. That mission was just an accident. How could you encounter an S-rank Rogue Ninja just by taking any random mission? We were just relatively unlucky."

Seiryū tapped Kurenai on the head and explained.

Konoha's mission assessnts were based on comprehensive considerations from many aspects, and mission ratings were relatively fixed.

They rarely encountered unexpected situations like theirs.

It could only be said that they were quite unlucky to have happened upon that Bounty Hunter, Kakuzu.

Generally, powerhouses at the Kage level would not bother with trash like bandits.

Only a freak like Kakuzu, who valued money above all else, would possibly attack bandits for a few asly coins.

And he just happened to run into Team Four.

Kurenai clutched her head, her beautiful eyes glaring at Seiryū. "Ugh, it hurts! Why did you hit my head again?"

"Who told you to scare Rin?"

Seiryū glanced sideways at Kurenai, then said to Rin. "Minato-senpai is much more reliable than that bad woman. If you encounter danger, you can escape with a single Flying Thunder God Technique. As long as your luck is not terrible, you will not run into a situation like ours."

"Minato-sensei is very powerful, so I do not really have to worry about danger."

Rin smiled, her attention turning to the dical book in Seiryū's hand.

She asked curiously. "Seiryū, is that a dical book you're holding?"
