The Adventures of Naruto And Scarlet - 99 RETURN
Scarlet, Sasuke and Naruto went towards the finishing line as they saw Idate and Fukusuke competing very closely. At the last moment, Idate increased his speed suddenly and managed to cross the finishing line first.
Idate presented the stone and lied down, gasping for air. Jurochou came towards him and said “Idate, It was a fine race. You did well, now go and be appreciated for your victory”
Scarlet then went back to the room assigned to her, tended her wounds, then took a bath and changed her clothes. After some time Jurochou came to her room and asked “I have heard about what happened from Naruto. Are you fine, you better go to a medic to treat injuries?”
Scarlet replied, “No thanks, I need to reach Konoha as soon as possible to avoid troubles.”
After talking some other matters Jurochou went back. After packing the necessary things, Scarlet went out and saw others. All of them were ready to go back when they saw a ship with Konoha’s emblem coming towards us. Ibiki came out of the ship and said “Lord Hokage ordered us to immediately bring you back, quickly get on the ship”
Idate shouted “Big brother”
Scarlet and others boarded the ship. Idate again shouted “Wait, big brother”
Ibiki replied “Who are you? The one who used to call me big brother died 3 years ago”
Idate thinks inwardly ‘Big brother, I found the answer to the 10th question. I will never betray my friends again. Now I can believe in others.’
Ibiki thinks ‘He has got a man’s look now’
The ship starts moving when Naruto says Goodbye to Idate and others. Seeing this Idate thinks ‘The boy acknowledged by the Hokage is indeed interesting. But the Hokage’s disciple is dangerous and she seems to be in a bad mood right now. Is it related to the bounty?’
No one particularly approached Scarlet during the journey due to the heavy atmosphere around her. After reaching Konoha Scarlet was immediately called to the Hokage’s office.
Tsunade said “Scarlet, you have a bounty now”
Scarlet replied “I know already, Boss Jurochou already showed me my bounty and I already had to kill 1 jonin and 3 elite chunin because of it. Ironically the three elite chunin belonged to Konoha and the jonin was a rogue ninja of the village hidden the stone and my location was leaked to him by the three chunin”
Tsunade instantly got angry as she shouted: “What the hell is going on?” The anbu hidden in the room were sweating because of the pressure released by Tsunade. Tsunade was very angry, she wanted to take good care of Scarlet to make it up for neglecting her childhood. Now Scarlet suddenly got a bounty on her head and the ninjas from Konoha actually gave her information to a Rouge ninja!
Since when did the Hokage’s disciple become the subject of the bully in Konoha? Tsunade immediately ordered “Shizune immediately arrange a team to investigate what happened? I want who in Konoha has the guts to attack my disciple?”
Scarlet said “No need Aunt Tsunade, I have already interrogated them. They said that they wanted to make me one of them. They called themselves ‘Root’. They said that they placed the bounty on me to injure me and take advantage of it and make me one of them.”
Tsunade understood what was going on, she asked Scarlet to go as she did not want to involve her in the meetings of the high-level members. After Scarlet left Tsunade asked one of the Anbu to bring Danzo.
After some time Danzo arrived, he was thinking ‘The mission failed but they will not leave any clues even if she suspects me I can simply brush it off.’
Danzo arrogantly came into the Hokage’s office and said: “What happened, why did you call me?”
Tsunade said “Danzo you better keep your filthy hands off my disciple”
Danzo replied, “Tsunade you just became Hokage, you don’t know how many things we have to do in Dark to protect the village.”
Tsunade replied, “Stay away Scarlet or else I will fight you to the end.”
Danzo angrily goes out of the Hokage’s office.
Tsunade thinks ‘I have to think of a way to protect Scarlet from bounty hunters and Danzo’
