"What is it?"
Tsunade leaned over curiously, about to take a look at what was written inside the Jade Scroll, but Kushina caught her hand and shook her head solemnly.
Facing Tsunade's astonished expression, Kushina explained:
"Tsunade-hime, the fewer people who know about what's in here, the better."
"Not even me?" Tsunade pointed at herself.
"No."
"No room for discussion?"
"Absolutely not."
Kushina drew a deep breath and shook her head. What was inside was far too important. She even felt that after practicing it, she could become another fifty percent stronger.
She was already a Kage-level ninja, with astonishing destructive power...
Gentō ought to keep this firmly under his control. Otherwise, if it spread and everyone's strength rose by a whole level, there would be serious trouble.
"Kushina, there's no need for that."
"If Tsunade-hime is curious, let her have a look. That way, you won't keep thinking I never do anything worthwhile."
Gentō waved a hand, signaling that Kushina need not be so strict.
He had intended to spread this training method throughout the Ninja World anyway. Otherwise, he would not have brought it out now.
There were plenty of ways to divert the women's attention.
Since the opportunity had presented itself, Gentō decided to make the arrangements now to spread the method for cultivating natural energy throughout the Ninja World.
"Tsunade-hime, be careful. Don't handle it so roughly."
Kushina followed Gentō's instructions and handed the Jade Scroll to Tsunade. Seeing how casually Tsunade took it, she could not help crying out, her large, glistening eyes filled with distress.
"I didn't use even half as much force as you did earlier."
Tsunade rolled her eyes at Kushina. Seeing the normally easygoing woman act like this only intensified her curiosity, and she opened the scroll.
She skimmed the contents.
