Tsunade's Blessing Kiss

"Sister Tsunade?"

Qingyu was somewhat surprised.

"This is what Teacher Sarutobi meant."

Orochimaru explained.

"Tsunade hasn't officially gone on a mission in a long time."

"Tsunade volunteered for the last escort mission, Teacher Sarutobi was very happy when he found out. He hopes that Tsunade can gradually recover and return to a normal mission rhythm."

Orochimaru paused, then added.

"Furthermore, this mission is located on the border of the Land of Wind, so there's a high chance we'll encounter ninjas from the Sunagakure."

"The puppeteers of Sunagakure are skilled in using poison, Tsunade's detoxification abilities are unmatched in Konoha. With her around, our margin for error will be much higher."

Qingyu nodded, indicating her understanding.

"There's one more thing."

Qingyu returned the scroll to Orochimaru.

"Could Lin participate as well?"

"Rin Nohara?"

Orochimaru's eyebrows were slightly raised.

"She's medical-nin with exceptional talent, having already mastered many Medical Ninjutsu. This mission will allow her to gain some practical experience."

"And with Sister Tsunade accompanying you this time, there shouldn't be any major safety issues, right?"

Qingyu explained.

Orochimaru chuckled upon hearing this.

"With Tsunade and me here, even if Chiyo came in person, she wouldn't gain any advantage. Bringing an extra medical-nin isn't a bad thing; if someone gets injured, Tsunade won't be able to handle it all by herself."

"I'll talk to the Ninja Academy; just tell her to get ready."

Upon hearing Orochimaru's words, Qingyu immediately replied, "Thank you Lord Orochimaru."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Orochimaru, Qingyu turned and left the research institute.

Mitarashi Anko had been squatting at the entrance of the research institute waiting for him. When she saw Qingyu come out, she immediately jumped up from the ground.

What did Lord Orochimaru say to you?

"Assign tasks."

As Qingyu walked and talked, she noticed that Mitarashi Anko had followed her again.

What are you doing following me?

"I'm going to Konoha Hospital to buy Military Ration Pill."

Mitarashi Anko said, her short legs quickening their pace to keep up with Qingyu's speed.

"Yeah."

Qingyu nodded slightly.

In addition to dispensing medicine, the pharmacy at Konoha Hospital also sells ninja-specific Military Ration Pill.

These Military Ration Pill are specially made by medical-nin and are more effective than the ordinary versions available on the market, replenishing Chakra and stamina more quickly.

The only downside is that it doesn't taste very good.

Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of Konoha Hospital.

Pushing open the door of the pharmacy, Qingyu saw Rin Nohara sitting behind the counter.

She was wearing a light green medical-nin robe, with the sleeves rolled up to her elbows, revealing her fair forearms.

"Qingyu- jun, look at this!"

Rin Nohara Hand Seals and demonstrated a newly learned Medical Ninjutsu to Qingyu.

A soft, pale green Chakra light shone from her palm.

Rin Nohara's voice carried a hint of smugness as she looked up at Qingyu, her eyes filled with anticipation for praise.

Qingyu reached out and gently ruffled her hair.

"Rin is really amazing; she mastered this Medical Ninjutsu so quickly."

Although Qingyu felt that many Medical Ninjutsu actually looked quite similar.

Rin Nohara's cheeks flushed slightly, but she didn't dodge Qingyu's hand.

"It's still a long way off."

"Rin Nohara said."

Mitarashi Anko peeked out from behind Qingyu.

Do you have any food here?

Anko Mitarashi's stomach had been rumbling several times already.

Seeing her pouting and clutching her stomach, Rin Nohara took out a paper package from the drawer and opened it; inside were Three-Color Dango.

"This is what I brought this morning. Please use it if you don't mind."

Mitarashi Anko's eyes instantly burned with passion.

She picked up a skewer of meatballs and took a bite.

"Tasty!"

With her mouth stuffed with dumplings, Mitarashi Anko mumbled incoherently, her cheeks puffed out like a hamster hoarding grain.

She took another string of them, and then another string.

Qingyu watched Anko Mitarashi devour the dumplings in her hand at an astonishing speed, a thought suddenly popped into her mind.

At this rate, won't she actually turn into Mitarashi Sweet Potato someday?

Could it be that the seeds of trouble were sown at this age by Mitarashi Anko, who was out of shape in her past life and always clung to Maruko?

Qingyu decided not to think about this problem.

[Collectible trait detected: Small Stomach]

[E-Rank Trait: Small Stomach]

[Effect: Increases food digestion capacity by 20%.]

Qingyu raised an eyebrow slightly as she looked at the words that appeared before her.

Increased food digestibility means his body can extract more nutrients and energy from the same amount of food.

To put it another way, if he eats five Military Ration Pills, his body will actually absorb the same amount as six.

One quarter is better than six.

Although it's only E-Rank Trait, its strength lies in its practicality, and its effects increase as his food intake and the quality of his supplies improve.

Qingyu turned off the trait panel and started talking to Rin Nohara about serious matters.

"Rin, Lord Orochimaru is going to the Land of Wind on a mission, and I recommended you to him. Lord Orochimaru agreed."

Rin Nohara paused for a moment, then blinked her brown eyes.

"What level of mission is it?"

Grade C.

Rin Nohara was somewhat surprised.

Generally speaking, it starts from Level D.

Although she excelled in Medical Ninjutsu, she had virtually no practical combat experience, and her Taijutsu and Ninjutsu scores were only average in her class.

"I'm willing to go."

Rin Nohara thought for a moment and then said.

With Lord Orochimaru here, everything should be fine.

"But what about the Ninja Academy— "

"Lord Orochimaru will handle it."

Qingyu stood up.

That evening, Qingyu returned home, opened the living room door, and saw Tsunade sitting on the sofa, flipping through a medical book.

"Sister Tsunade."

Qingyu sat down next to her and recounted what Orochimaru had said that day.

"That old woman has indeed been quite restless lately. Although Chiyo has retired to the second line, the intelligence network of Sunagakure has always been managed by her younger brother Ebizo. The spies sent out this time are most likely Ebizo's subordinates."

Tsunade's tone carried a hint of familiarity with her old rival.

During the Second Shinobi World War, she and Chiyo clashed on the battlefield more than once.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Tsunade stood up and stretched.

Beneath the loose-fitting slip dress, Qingyu could see that her vulgar breasts were trembling.

Just as Qingyu was about to abstain from looking at what was indecent and prepare to wash up and go to bed, Tsunade called out to Qingyu.

"Hey kid, come here!"

"Tsunade shouted."

This made Qingyu's heart skip a beat.

Just as he was about to say that he played purely as a green-skinned player and never used aimbot, he noticed Tsunade suddenly approaching him.

Then Qingyu felt a warm touch on her forehead.

Sending you a kiss of blessing.

Tsunade smiled.

For Tsunade, there were several times when she turned around and found the people around her dead.

Therefore, Tsunade did not want to see Qingyu die so young.

Qingyu paused for a moment, feeling that something was off.

Given Tsunade's string of bad luck, is this definitely not a kiss of death?
