Bamboo-Copter

At Konoha Hospital, Shunren and Hong visited Inoichi, each holding a bouquet of flowers.

"Shunren and Hong, you've arrived."

"Clang~" Inoichi called out their names before the door was even opened.

"You can use your senses now? It seems you've recovered quite well, Teacher Inoichi," Shunren said with a smile.

Red puffed out her cheeks, widened her eyes, and said with displeasure, "Seriously! The patient isn't even better yet, so don't waste your Chakra!"

Inoichi awkward laugh and said, "Without realizing it, it just became an occupational hazard~"

Shunren came to the table, swaying the vase. There was already a bunch of fresh orchids that had been planted not long ago, so there was no need to replace them. He then added the daisies he had brought.

Shunren asked, "Shizune, has she been here?"

"Yes, but for now we should follow Lady Tsunade," Kurenai answered on behalf of Inoichi.

Inoichi's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "Um... I only just regained consciousness today. Could you tell me what happened during this time?"

"After Inoichi- sensei got injured? Ah, that's quite a story." Kurenai thought with mixed feelings as she recalled what happened after that.

"Let me do it." Shunren Hand Seals, "Ninja Art: Mind- Mind Transmission Technique!"

Mind Link.

One second--

Two seconds--

Three seconds --

Intelligence delivered!

Shunren transmitted the details of the matter directly to Inoichi's brain.

"I see..." A look of understanding flashed across Inoichi.

"Smack!" Kurenai couldn't help but reach out and slap Shunren on the back of the head, saying unhappily, "I told you! Don't waste Chakra on patients!"

"Don't worry, Hong, it's alright." Inoichi said with a smile, "Shunren, you did a great job!"

Inoichi's praise of Shunren was not only because Shunren used the secret teachings he had given him very well, but also because Shunren continued to take on important responsibilities and completed the mission perfectly after Haiyi was injured and fell into a coma during the mission.

"It's a pity, Mr. Inoichi, your health is still..." Hong said with a worried expression.

Inoichi has been lying in bed without moving since just now.

Shunren went forward and helped him up, so that Inoichi could sit up with his back against the wall.

"Thank you for your help..." Inoichi smile, "Thanks to Lady Tsunade's treatment, I've regained consciousness, but it will probably be another week before I can fully recover my mobility."

A deep look flashed in Shunren's eyes. He thought to himself that Madara Uchiha's Dōjutsu was indeed incredibly fierce. Not only had it instantly overwhelmed Inoichi, who was extremely powerful in the mental realm, but even after being treated by Tsunade, the greatest medical Tsunade in the Shinobi World, Inoichi still needed to lie in bed for a week to recuperate. This alone showed just how powerful Madara Uchiha, the one who cast the technique, truly was!

"I actually fell for the enemy's Genjutsu, and in the end, I couldn't even find out who the caster was." Inoichi seemed a little downcast, shaking his head and saying, "It seems I was too narrow-minded. The world of ninjas is truly full of hidden masters."

Shunren could understand Inoichi's feelings. It's understandable to be hurt when you're crushed in an area where you can be proud. But on the other hand, considering that Inoichi survived after being dealt a heavy blow by the world-class boss, Madara Uchiha, he was already quite powerful!

It's important to know that this Inoichi Yamanaka, during Pain's attack in the original story, broke through the Genjutsu traps set by the Rinnegan Inoichi, successfully invaded the minds of the captured survivors, and read the key information that could unlock Pain's secrets. Thus, he contributed significantly to the defeat of Pain.

Alright, it's almost time.

"You can go and see Shizune off in place of the teacher." After staying with Inoichi for a while, the latter then sent them away.

Her Red Eye widened slightly, and she exclaimed in surprise, "What? Shizune left today? How come I didn't know? And if the teacher knew, she should have said so earlier!"

Inoichi and said, "Shizune told me not to tell you, to avoid the sadness of parting, but I think I still have to tell you."

"Let's go, Hong." Shunren didn't waste any words. He probably knew that Shizune didn't want to see the sadness of parting, but was just afraid that she would cry and be reluctant to leave them.

Honestly, even little girls' thoughts are starting to become unpredictable.

The Konoha Gate, Tsunade, Shizune.

"If you were so reluctant to let them go, why didn't you tell them in the first place?" Tsunade sighed as she watched Shizune take a few steps and then turn back to look at her.

"Um... I'm sorry, Lady Tsunade, I just..." Shizune's face flushed slightly, and she lowered her head, but she couldn't help but look towards the village again.

"Do you regret it? Not letting your companions come to see you off?"

"Yes..." Shizune said softly, her eyes glistening with tears, "I thought I could hold back. Even though I'm a ninja, I couldn't help but cry. I... I'm really terrible."

Tsunade gently pulled Tsunade into her arms, stroking her head softly, and said gently, "Yes, that's really terrible. I'm just as bad as you."

Shizune's words reminded Tsunade of her past self. As a ninja, hadn't she cried countless times? No matter how strong she appeared on the outside, and despite being known as Sannin of the legendary Shinobi World, she was still, after all, a woman.

Running through the streets of Konoha, Kurenai, panting heavily, shouted, "Shunren! What are you doing? Run faster!"

"Wait a moment." Shunren formed the "Wei" mudra with his hands, highly focused, his mind rapidly forming an idea.

He then gestured with his hand, "Yin Release: Projection!"

Black Chakra, representing the Yin Release, gathers in his hand, creating form from nothingness.

"What... is this?" Hong looked at the strange object in Shunren's hand with a puzzled expression.

Two small fan blades, with a small cap underneath.

"This thing is called Bamboo-Copter." A four-dimensional gadget from Doraemon, the Bamboo-Copter that can fly against gravity!

Shunren placed it on his head, then walked to Hong's side and picked her up in his arms.

"This is the first time I've used this projection system, and I don't know how long it will last. Anyway, there's no time to explain, get on the bus!"

"Huh? Huh?!" Hong was completely bewildered.

However, what happened next left Hong completely dumbfounded.

The air currents ruffled her long hair, and her view of the ground began to recede. When she looked up, she realized that they were surrounded by blue sky and white clouds!

"I... I'm not dreaming, am I?!"

Shunren, holding the red object, flew up!
