A Journey Through the Universes - Chapter 147: Flight
Senju Residence
Evening
Tsunade was pacing nervously around the living room– Did you see that flash? –
– Yes. Mito calmly replied, sitting at the table with a cup in her hands and her eyes closed. The woman calmly answered this question, even though she had been asked it probably a hundred times already.
– And that push? Our whole service jumped up in the morning. –
Mito silently raised the cup to her lips and sipped the fragrant tea grown by her son.
– How much time has passed. Tsunade shook her head nervously, biting her lower lip – He should have been back a long time ago. –
“We don’t know who fought in that battle, Tsunade. Maybe Tetsui wasn’t even close there. –
The girl cast a skeptical glance at her grandmother – This was a very bad attempt to calm me down, ba. Hundreds of eyes saw the wood technique – the Thousand-handed Truth, in that battle. And who do you think is capable of a battle of such magnitude, if not our man? –
– Apparently there is still such a person, since such a battle took place. Mito exhaled, looking at her reflection in the cup with melancholy
“That’s what scares me. – Tsuna clenched her fists – So much time has passed, and no one has heard from him. What if he’s injured? – the girl sharply raised her head – What if he is on the verge of death? –
– Tsunade… – Mito said slowly with strength in her voice, looking up from the cup to her granddaughter – You have to believe in your man. Tetsuya is the strongest Shinobi of this and most likely past generations. If you can’t believe in such a man, then you are worthless as a future wife and the head of his harem. –
Tsunade froze. Slowly, the girl turned and met Mito’s gaze – What do you mean by that? –
After a short silence, Uzumaki replied – Kushina-chan also loves Tetsuya with all her heart, however, remember what she said recently? –
Tsunade folded her arms and stared at Mito with displeasure
Uzumaki continued, despite her granddaughter’s displeasure – She said she wasn’t worried at all, because Tetsuya couldn’t lose. Her faith in him is unshakable. –
– She’s a child. –
– No, she’s a Shinobi. –
– All this faith is stupid. –
– Not at all. –
Suddenly Tsunade said – Have you always believed in Grandpa? Even when he died? –
Mito froze for a few seconds, looking into Tsunade’s eyes, and the girl inside began to reproach herself for such a sharp question
– Yes. I believed until the very end, even though I didn’t even love him. –
Tsuna lowered her eyes, unable to withstand her grandmother’s gaze
“There’s no point without faith, Tsunade. –
Uzumaki saw that Tsuna was ashamed of her outburst, so she decided not to develop the topic further – It’s okay to worry, although it’s stupid, because we can’t help him in any way, even if we were together with him in that fight… Most likely they would have just prevented and worsened his situation in battle. –
– I understand, but… but it’s so hard… –
– No one says it’s easy. –
Suddenly there was a knock on the door
– Go open it. –
Tsunade calmly walked up to the door and opened it – It’s you, sensei. –
Hiruzen smiled and nodded–Yes. Is he back? –
– No. – the girl shook her head and stepping aside said – Come in. –
– thanks. –
Passing into the living room, Sarutobi nodded with a smile – Hello, Mito. –
– Is there any news? –
– Yes, something has become clear. – he said, sitting down in a chair with a slight grunt – Tetsuya won that fight, so you shouldn’t worry too much. –
Mito smiled slightly, lifting the corner of her lips, but Tsunade abruptly put her hands on the table – Is it true!? Is the information reliable? –
– Yes, more than. Jiraya was hurriedly sent to the scene and found out everything. – Hokage said with a smile, taking out the phone – That flash and push were the result of Tetsuya’s attack. By the way, he finished the fight with this technique, and then where he went is unknown, as is unknown who he fought with. –
– That’s something. – Tsunade nodded, exhaling with relief
The sound of the door opening rang out
– Are you waiting for someone? Hiruzen was surprised, lighting up
– I’ll take a look. Tsuna said quickly, walking with a quick, sweeping step.
Mito, meanwhile, closed her eyes and frowned heavily.
Coming around the corner, Tsunade froze abruptly.
Tetsuya stood in the doorway and calmly took off his shoes, as if nothing had happened.
– Tetsuya! Tsunade exclaimed with a smile and ran to her man
– Tsunade. – the guy said affectionately and spread his arms for hugs
That’s just a second before the embrace, Tsunade’s kind face was replaced by a menacing and angry pug.
A female fist embraced by the chakra swiftly flew into the head of one Uzumaki
Looking at the approaching fist, Tetsuya thought – “Sometimes in a man’s life there are moments when it’s better to clench your jaw tighter and take a blow so that a woman angry at your fault loses some of her anger and even feels guilty after seeing the consequences of her rage on your face…” –
*VIGILANCE*
The sound of the blow resounded throughout the evening Konoha.
Tetsuya’s body flew extremely fast and broke through the wall of the Senju residence and fell on the main street. Shouts of shocked people rang out.
Nearby, in the shade of trees, a thirty–year-old man with gorgeous hair and mesmerizing purple eyes said – A hundred meters, right? –
– Yeah. – the black humanoid answered him, trying to measure with his eyes the number of meters that the Shinobi God flew
– Are we really welcome here? –
– I’m not quite sure…–
A second, two, three…
The angry expression disappeared from Tsunade’s face, and she nervously and guiltily looked at the destroyed wall – “What if he was injured, and I hit him so hard? No, he is the best iryenin, he would hardly walk wounded all day… But suddenly… suddenly the opponent was extremely serious…” –
Five seconds later, the girl broke down and ran towards the flying Tetsui, with a hidden fear in her eyes.
Meanwhile, the victim himself was lying on the road and looking at the starry sky, while the whole street was whispering and looking strangely at the Shinobi God
The guy was not injured at all, only his clothes were slightly frayed and dusty. Even the place of impact did not turn red at all, and the skin remained the envy of all beauties. – “What a beautiful sky…” – he thought, and then touched his cheek – “This won’t do, did he get in the face for nothing?” –
With the help of small manipulations, he increased the blood flow to the site of the impact – “Not bad, it looks perfect… but something else is missing…” –
Quietly and imperceptibly, dust and earth under the action of the chakra made the clothes more pathetic and torn in places.
– “And also…” –
A little manipulation and the capillaries at the site of the impact burst.
Tetsuya expected to make a good bruise, but an outrageous regeneration came into play and instantly cured everything.
– “Okay and so it will do… Although with a hematoma it would be more interesting…” –
– Tetsuya! Tsunade exclaimed, running out of the hole in the wall.
The girl’s eyes saw that her beloved was lying there on the ground, covered in dust and torn clothes, and the place of impact was stained with a strong crimson – Sorry! – she said quickly, going up to the guy and bending down – Did you get hurt badly? –
– Not weak. Tetsuya smiled affectionately, “But if that’s what I deserve… If this is what will help me get your forgiveness, then I will bear with it… –
– Y-yes! It’s your fault, so we’ll talk about it later. – said Tsunade, treating Tetsuya, and he just stopped the technique with which he controlled the blood – Let’s go, grandma was also worried. –
Slowly getting up, Tetsuya calmly walked home with Tsunade in his arms.
– Oh Kami … – Madara covered his face with his palm, from whose eyes all the manipulations of the cunning Uzumaki could not hide – Why does he do it, and am I ashamed? –
Kuro Zetsu just shrugged his shoulders.
Already inside, Tetsuya greeted Sarutobi and Mito – Hello sensei, I’m back, Mom. –
Hiruzen smiled with a pipe in his mouth and nodded. Mito also nodded, but the frown on her face could not hide from the eyes of everyone in the living room.
– Predicting questions, I say right away. Yes, it was I who fought in today’s battle, and no I was not injured. –
– Where have you been all day? – I folded my arms on my chest to Tsunade, who had already lost her accumulated anger – We were very, very worried. –
– I was conducting another experiment to increase strength. – Tetsuya shrugged his shoulders – And also, not without difficulties, I got an ally who should help me fulfill one of my… plans. –
Tsunade brought her eyebrows together when she heard about the plan, which for some reason she was not privy to.
Mito squinted, looking at her son – Is the man with a powerful chakra, whom you brought to the territory of the residence, the same ally? –
Upon hearing this, Tsunade and Hiruzen tried to sense an outsider, but their attempt was unsuccessful.
Tetsuya was surprised – “She felt Madara, Mom’s sensory skills should not be underestimated…” Yes, it’s him, but I’m surprised that you could feel him. –
– And I can’t feel it. – she answered and sipped her cup – I found out about an outsider on the territory only with the help of Fuin, –
– “That’s how… But she couldn’t notice Kuro Zetsu, which is no wonder, the asshole knows how to hide perfectly. You can’t take that away from him.” Today I was going to reveal one of my secrets, but I think before I start doing this, it’s worth calling my ally. –
Having said that, Tetsuya rushed out of the room with a rapid step, and returned a little later.
Then Madara followed him, at the sight of which Mito frowned, although she was extremely surprised.
Neither Tsunade nor Hiruzen recognized the person standing in front of him, but Sarutobi knew that he was facing an extremely difficult person, because not every Shinobi had the eyes of a sage of the six paths.
– How many years, Mito. Uchiha said calmly, looking at one of the few women he respected.
– Madara … – Mito pronounced syllables, and then turned her gaze to her son – It was with him that you fought today, right? –
– Yes, Mom. I can’t hide anything from you. –
Tsunade brought her eyebrows together when she heard that the one with whom her beloved fought so zealously today was standing in front of her, but Hiruzen looked at the guest in amazement. – Uchiha Madara… This can’t be happening… And so young… –
Madara shifted his gaze to Hokage – Hmm. Tobirama’s disciple… Through Tetsui’s efforts, I regained my former strength and youth. –
– Sensei, why are you so surprised? Tsunade asked confusedly, feeling stupid that she was the only one who didn’t understand the whole situation.
The girl’s ignorance in this matter is not surprising, because no one liked to remember Uchiha Madara, especially the Uchiha clan itself. Moreover, knowledge and news about him were suppressed in every possible way.
– Uchiha Madara is a friend of your grandfather and the one with whom he founded Konoha … – Sarutobi began, and Mito continued – As well as the one who betrayed your grandfather’s ideals, betrayed their friendship, tried to rebel with the help of his clan, but was rejected by his own clansmen. As a result, he left the village, but only to return with the nine-tailed and try to destroy Konoha and all its inhabitants. Hashirama Senju was able to defend the village and during this battle his best friend Madara Uchiha was killed … more precisely, it was thought so until that time. –
At the end of the speech, Mito turned her gaze to her son – I hope you have good reasons to bring him to the village and generally conclude an alliance. –
Taking a deep breath, Tetsuya began his story.
