Chapter 98: Capricious Tsunade (Subscription Request)
Ignoring Kaoru who had been sitting silently at the door of the operating room, Tsunade hurriedly walked into the operating room.

Seeing the familiar boy lying on the hospital bed, Tsunade's breathing became a little rapid.

Without time to feel sad, Tsunade quickly changed into surgical gown with the help of the nurse, and then spoke to the medical staff who had been maintaining Jiu Xing's vital signs:

"Tianshan, what's going on with this little brat?"

"Multiple muscle tears throughout the body."

"Five ribs were broken, there was heavy bleeding in the chest cavity, and most importantly, a piece of bone pierced the heart."

Pharmacist Tianshan was sweating as he looked at the young man in front of him who was breathing in more than he was breathing out.

Tsunade gritted her teeth at that, trying to calm herself down before speaking:

"Leave it to me next."

"Tianshan, come and help me."

"Okay, Lady Tsunade."

Tsunade immediately came to the operating table and was about to take over from Yakushi Tenzen when she saw the necklace she had given to the young man on Jiu Xing's chest emitting a faint green fluorescence under the light of the operating light.

There was a flash of sadness in Tsunade's eyes, but she still moved quickly. Her hands emitted a green light representing life and she quickly checked Jiu Xing's injuries.

However, the results of the examination were even more serious than what Pharmacist Tianshan had said.

Not only five ribs were broken, but also small bone fragments penetrated into the internal organs.

These must be dealt with...

As time passed, the darkness outside was gradually replaced by the morning, and the villagers of Konoha had already started a new day.

However, outside an operating room in Konoha Hospital, a blonde girl was still sitting blankly at the door of the operating room.

She didn't expect...

She didn't expect that she would actually send Jiu Xing to the operating room, and that Lady Tsunade had been in there for six hours, and it hadn't ended yet...

If Jiu Xing died because of me...

The girl clutched her clothes tightly in her hands. She had never felt time was so difficult to endure.

Her tears could no longer flow, they had dried up...

The sound of footsteps rang beside her ears, but Xun was still as dazed as a puppet, not even moving her eyes.

The man spoke, his voice was heavy and mature.

"Xun, you really passed this time..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the girl in front of him helplessly.

Even though he had thought of the worst, he didn't expect it to turn out like this.

That kid Jiu Xing actually allowed himself to be beaten into the operating room by Xun.

Didn't even return the hand...

"Third generation sir..."

"You said, will Jiu Xing die..."

Xun looked up at Sarutobi Hiruzen somewhat stiffly.

"……Will not."

"Tsunade is in there."

Sarutobi Hiruzen patted Kaoru's shoulder to comfort him.

However, at this moment, there was a click, and Tsunade, with a tired face, appeared in front of the two of them.

The long and precise operation almost exhausted her mind.

"Tsunade, what's going on?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at his most beloved disciple in front of him and spoke quickly.

As the most powerful fighter in Konoha at present, Sarutobi Hiruzen thought that Jiu Xing was very tough, but he didn't expect that it was precisely because he was too tough that Kaoru attacked him too harshly.

He was beaten straight into the gates of hell.

Tsunade sat down next to Kaoru tiredly, looking at the girl who was staring at her blankly.

"We are out of danger for now."

"But a piece of bone pierced the heart."

Hearing this, Xun's hands suddenly clenched together tightly.

"He, why is he..."

Tsunade stroked her forehead gently and said in a dull voice:

"Old man, I want to ask you something."

"Ok?"

"What do you want to ask, Tsunade?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that Jiu Xing was temporarily out of danger.

"Kyuuki, what's your relationship with Grandma Mito?" Tsunade's eyes flashed with a hint of fluctuation. She discovered that Kyuuki had almost the same abilities as Uzumaki Mito.

It was hard not to think about it.

"...Kyuyuki is Yukimura's grandson."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Tsunade in front of him, sighed and spoke.

Tsunade's eyes widened slightly.

Uzumaki Yukimura is the younger brother of Uzumaki Mito.

In other words, Jiu Xing is his cousin?
Do you have a younger brother?
—

When Jiu Xing woke up in a daze, she found herself in a ward with all kinds of tubes hanging all over her body.

"Hey, is there anyone here, can you please..."

Jiu Xing spoke somewhat weakly.

However, before he could finish, a somewhat familiar figure suddenly ran out of the ward and shouted.

"Tsunade-sama!"

"Tsunade-sama!"

"Jiu Xing is awake!"

It's Nao...

Ok?
Why is Nao here?
Little ghost, you finally woke up...

Kyuubi's voice echoed in my heart.

Jiu Xing also sank into his inner world and landed on the head of Kyuubi who was lying on the ground.

Jiu Xing looked at the golden sealed space helplessly and said:

"Xiaojiu, how long have I been unconscious?"

"Four days."

Kyuubi responded to Kyuuki unhappily.

He thought he could choose a resurrection point and start over.

Unexpectedly, under the beating from that woman Namikaze Kaoru, Jiu Xing actually awakened the physical healing power of the Uzumaki clan and was able to barely hold on.

"You really messed up this time."

"Even if you didn't attack that woman, you wouldn't run away?"

Listening to Kyuubi's words, Jiu Xing touched the furry hair under his body and said:

"I owe her this."

"You can't run away. If you run away, there will really be no future."

"Tsk, next time you want to commit suicide, remember not to take me with you."

In Kyuubi's opinion, Jiu Xing was being completely stupid by allowing the other party to beat him to the point of near death.

Is there anything more stupid than this?
"Xiaojiu, let's talk later. Someone seems to be calling me outside."

As Jiu Xing slowly opened his eyes, he saw the old face of Sarutobi Hiruzen again.

Ok?
Why say it again?

However, before he could come to his senses, Tsunade, who was standing on the other side of him, said unhappily:
"Little ghost, you are able to survive this time, it's purely luck."

Jiu Xing ignored Tsunade's dissatisfaction and searched the room for figures.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Tsunade, Nao...

There are only these three people.

"Where's Kaoru?"

Jiu Xing's voice was very weak, and if you didn't listen carefully you couldn't hear it at all.

"Oh, that child..."

"Standing at the door."

"I don't dare to come to see you."

Tsunade crossed her arms and said unhappily.

Really, even if you want to beat him, you don’t have to beat him so hard.

She had never beaten Jiraiya so harshly...

"Sister Tsunade, can you please ask everyone to leave? I want to see Kaoru..."

Jiu Xing smiled, but in Tsunade's opinion, this smile was pleasing to the eye no matter how you looked at it.

After knowing that Jiu Xing is her younger brother, Tsunade's attitude is now completely different from before.

Isn’t it just having more wives?
What's the big deal? There are only so many people left in the Uzumaki clan. Is there anything wrong with strengthening the family bloodline?
